Villain Ch 689. Status Quo

Jordan's response carried a weight of uncertainty, reflecting the complexities of navigating the public's perception. "I can't say anything about that for now," he admitted, his voice asured. "We will see the public and players' reactions later."

He paused, contemplating the dynamics at play. "The public is still crazy about the devil emperor character," Jordan continued, his tone reflecting a hint of intrigue. "They still want to believe it's A.I. But as humans, they will probably reach the phase where their ego and pride as humans don't want to be defeated by A.I.

There will be a ti when they hope that the one behind the devil emperor is a player, not an A.I.," he predicted, his tone tinged with anticipation.

He concluded with a note of reassurance, addressing Allen directly. "But until the ti cos, you have to be patient for a while," Jordan advised, his words a reminder of the importance of strategic patience.

Hearing that statent, Emma took a deep breath, her brow furrowing with a mix of frustration and intrigue. "Speaking of players who are crazy about the devil emperor, I guess I know one of them," she began, her voice tinged with curiosity. "Azura also said that earlier."

Her words carried a hint of uncertainty, reflecting the complexity of the situation. "She just asked about the advanced A.I that controls the emperor," she continued, her tone thoughtful. "But then she asked if the fighting style copies a certain player. Or maybe she hoped it was a real person behind the emperor."

Emma's pout conveyed her frustration as she glanced at Allen, her gaze searching for answers. "I watched you throughout the event and tried to analyze what makes the players interested," she confessed, her voice tinged with a hint of exasperation. "But you didn't seduce the players or do sothing to them. The Incubi even did a better seduction than you."

Her words hung in the air, a mix of accusation and bewildernt. "Yet our own cousin is attracted to you," she concluded, her tone a blend of frustration and disbelief.

That left Allen and Jordan speechless, their eyebrows shooting up in surprise as they exchanged a glance. Emma's revelation shed light on her sudden change in mood, leaving them both intrigued and amused.

Emma, realizing her slip-up, gasped and quickly covered her mouth, her cheeks flushing with embarrassnt. She hadn't ant to spill the beans like that, especially not in front of her father and brother.

Allen couldn't help but chuckle at the situation, breaking the tension with a lighthearted comnt. "So that's why you're upset at ," he remarked, a playful twinkle in his eyes. Read new chapters at empire

Jordan's curiosity was piqued, and he leaned forward slightly, his gaze fixed on Emma. "What did Azura tell you?" he inquired, eager to hear more about the conversation.

Emma cringed, feeling a little sheepish under her father's scrutiny. Her eyes darted between Allen and Jordan, uncertainty evident in her expression. "Can't you pretend you didn't hear that?" she pleaded, hoping to brush off the topic.

But Allen wasn't about to let her off the hook so easily, his teasing tone lacing his words with amusent. "Nope. We heard it loud and clear," he declared, a mischievous grin playing on his lips.

"Now tell what she said?" Jordan's curiosity only seed to grow as Emma hesitated, her regret evident in the way she sighed before reluctantly revealing the details of her conversation with Azura.

Emma couldn't help but cringe inwardly at her own slip-up. ' and my big mouth,' she berated herself silently, wishing she could take back her careless words.

With a resigned exhale, Emma finally mustered the courage to spill the beans. "Uh… As I said before," she began, her words coming out in a rush, "Azura was interested in you after your last encounter. I an, you guys fought one on one, so I guess that's understandable. But what I don't understand is why she's still interested in you after witnessing you slaughter her.

It was brutal, yet she's still curious," Emma confessed, her tone a mixture of confusion and disbelief.

"One on one?" Allen spoke, seeking clarification.

Emma turned to Allen. "Oh, right, I forgot to ntion, her avatar na is VirtualValkyrie," she stated.

"Ah," Allen realized, connecting the dots. "So, she's also a Goldborne?" he asked, surprised by the revelation.

"No, actually. She's on my mother's side of the family, so she doesn't carry the Goldborne na," explained Emma, her earlier sour mood completely dissipated.

Jordan turned to Allen, curiosity evident in his expression. "It seems you know her too," he asked curiously, referring to Azura.

Allen nodded in confirmation. "Yeah, I faced her in a tournant two years ago. She clinched the third-place spot. Surprised you didn't know?" he questioned, eyebrows raised in mild astonishnt.

"Nope," Jordan responded with a shrug, his tone nonchalant. "I don't really keep tabs on second or third-place finishers," he added, a hint of arrogance seeping into his voice.

Allen fought the urge to roll his eyes. 'Now I see where Emma and I get our arrogance from,' he mused internally, a wry smile playing on his lips. It was evident that Jordan's deanor exuded an air of superiority, and it wasn't lost on Allen.

Jordan raised an eyebrow, his interest piqued. "So, did you spill the beans about Allen? That he is the devil emperor?" he inquired, a hint of concern lacing his tone.

Emma shook her head adamantly. "No, I didn't tell her anything about Allen's identity. I just listened to her ramblings and pretended to be interested," she replied, her expression earnest.

Jordan let out a sigh of relief, visibly relaxing. "Good," he muttered, his tone reflecting a sense of reassurance. He knew the importance of keeping Allen's identity under wraps, especially given the potential consequences of it being exposed to the wrong people. "We'll maintain the status quo for now.

Afterall, Azura will encounter Allen again at the conference," he concurred, his expression thoughtful as he contemplated the potential outcos of their next eting.

Allen nodded in understanding, ntally preparing himself for the possibility of facing Azura once more. "Yeah, we'll see how it goes when the ti cos," he remarked, a sense of determination underlying his words.
