The Kingmaker System

I returned to the Lockwood mansion and stepped inside my room at the same time that the sunrays touched the floor and I stretched. Nox flew over and sat down on the pillow making himself comfortable.

The negotiations went smoothly and now I had to wait for tomorrow when the actual thing was going to happen.

I had asked Augustine to keep our conversation a secret, especially the part of the world’s doom. He had vowed on his name that wouldn’t let anyone else know about it.

I watched as Nox closed his eyes and fell asleep, I thought of catching a short nap but I knew I couldn’t fall asleep. I was way too fired up for tomorrow’s conclusion that my sleep would keep evading me.

Just as I was contemplating over what to do there was a knock on the door and I changed my appearance, my hair grew shorter with the jet black hue and my eyes became as red as the mana stone studded on my ear.

I opened the door and faced the two maids who were there one with a basin of water and other with a towel.

They greeted me with smiles and I freshened up before changing my clothes.

"Her Grace has requested you to join them for breakfast, My Lord." The maids bowed and I looked at Nox who was stirring away.

"Nox," I called and the owl ruffled his feathers and the maids looked at him curiously before he flapped his large feathers and flew over to me.

The maids gasped as they noticed just how large he was and I brushed my fingers over his feathers.

"He’s my pet, I would like some meal to be prepared for him as well, please." I told the maids.
