'Nethery's rival?'
Bu Fang did not expect to draw the attention of Nethery's rival so quickly.
According to what the noblewoman told him, Nethery's return to Void City was not to play, but to inherit the Queen of Curses' city.
She was no longer the miserable Netherworld woman banished to the ruins, but a rich, noble lady with the Queen of Curses at her back, enjoying a very exalted position. Of course, all this could not be true until she gained the Queen's favor and inherited her throne.
After coming to Void City, Bu Fang's thoughts had changed slightly. He had thought it was a run-down place, and Nethery might be uncomfortable here. But now, it seemed that perhaps this was where she should stay. Instead of taking her away, what he could do might be to help clear some of the rivals for her.
'Since she's been sent by Nethery's rival, I can just take this opportunity to eliminate her,' Bu Fang thought to himself. His mind had become much calmer.
