"Discussing something about the teleportation gate? What do you mean?" Lyra inquired, her brow slightly furrowed.

Reyna had been completely uninvolved in the construction of the teleportation gate, leaving Lyra puzzled by her statement.

Reyna smiled slightly, idly playing with her long black hair, and replied playfully, "I\'ll tell you, Lady Lyra, but only if you agree to grant me one request in return. How does that sound?"

Lyra\'s eyes narrowed slightly as she heard Reyna\'s request, and she shook her head.

"In that case, I\'ll leave first," Lyra said with a nonchalant tone, pulling Leon\'s hand and walking away without looking back.

Though she often appeared indifferent and aloof, she was neither naive nor easily fooled.

As the sixth Demon General, Reyna was renowned throughout the outer palace for her cunning, making her unlikely to be deceived by such tricks.

Watching Lyra reject her, Reyna pursed her lips, her annoyance evident on her otherwise charming face.

"Are you certain you don\'t want to hear what I have to say, Lady Lyra?" Reyna asked, a faint smile returning to her lips.

Lyra, however, ignored her and continued walking, pulling Leon along, causing Reyna\'s cheeks to puff out in frustration.

Crossing her arms over her chest, Reyna followed after Lyra and said, "Lady Lyra, please listen to me. What I want to discuss is crucial—it concerns your success in solving the teleportation gate problem!"

At these words, Lyra\'s indifferent expression wavered. She halted abruptly and glanced back.

"In that case, tell me right away," Lyra said flatly.

Reyna\'s smile widened with satisfaction, pleased to see that she had finally piqued Lyra\'s interest.

With her arms still crossed over her chest, Reyna fixed Lyra with a charming gaze and said, "Of course, but before I share the details, I need you to grant me one request, as I mentioned earlier."

Lyra frowned, ready to refuse, but Reyna quickly interrupted her.

"Please don\'t dismiss my offer just yet, Lady Lyra. The matter I wish to discuss is crucial to you, and I\'m confident you won\'t regret it," Reyna said lightly, a faint smile on her lips.

Lyra paused, her expression thoughtful, as if she were deep in contemplation.

Meanwhile, Leon, who had been silently observing, glared coldly at Reyna from behind his mask.

\'This woman\'s cunning hasn\'t changed a bit,\' Leon thought indifferently.

Having fought her many times, Leon knew Reyna well.

If he were to compare her cunning, he would place her just a few levels below Jim, the most devious and unpredictable person he had ever encountered.

While Reyna wasn\'t quite on Jim\'s level, she certainly deserved the title of the most cunning woman in the world.

\'Hah, Lyra has really walked into her trap this time,\' Leon thought, glancing at the contemplative Lyra.

From the moment Reyna entered their presence, Leon had been deeply suspicious, and his suspicions were soon validated.

Reyna had clearly orchestrated her entrance to create this opportunity, and her goal was to seize this moment.

With the teleportation gate issue unresolved, she intended to exploit this loophole to her advantage, knowing that Lyra, already cornered by the unresolved problem, would inevitably agree.

As Leon had anticipated, Lyra took a deep breath and, after a moment of contemplation, nodded in agreement.

"Alright, then I agree," Lyra replied in a cold and indifferent tone.

Reyna\'s lips curled into a wide smile upon hearing her agreement, unable to hide her delight.

"However, I want to make one thing clear: your request must be reasonable. If it\'s excessive, I won\'t grant it, no matter how much you insist," Lyra added, maintaining her calm and indifferent gaze.

Reyna chuckled and nodded, saying, "Don\'t worry, Lady Lyra. My request isn\'t something too burdensome for you."

Lyra raised an eyebrow but nodded in agreement, responding, "Then tell me what you want to discuss."

With a lingering smile, Reyna began, "Lady Lyra, what I wish to discuss isn\'t directly related to the teleportation gate but rather concerns the Archdemon Aragon."

Lyra\'s expression shifted, her eyes narrowing as a cold aura surrounded her.

"Aragon? Why are you suddenly bringing him up?" Lyra, who was usually indifferent and composed, now radiated a dangerously cold aura, causing the temperature around them to drop sharply.

Beside her, Leon noticed the drastic shift in Lyra\'s demeanor, and his eyes widened in surprise.

\'What\'s going on? Why is Lyra radiating such a menacing aura?\' Leon wondered inwardly; his curiosity stirred.

This was the first time he had seen Lyra exhibit such a significant change in attitude, and it truly astonished him.

After all, Lyra was always calm and composed, making this new display all the more startling.

\'Is Lyra reacting this way because she has an issue with Archdemon Aragon, whom Reyna just mentioned?\' Leon mused inwardly.

After Reyna mentioned that name, Lyra\'s demeanor changed dramatically, intensifying Leon\'s suspicion.

Despite this, Leon still sought more clarity and chose to observe further.

Meanwhile, Reyna, taken aback by Lyra\'s reaction, quickly composed herself and shook her head with a small, measured smile.

"Please try to remain calm, Lady Lyra," Reyna said lightly. "I understand your frustration with Archdemon Aragon, but the issue with the teleportation gate is connected to him, and that\'s what I need to discuss."

Lyra\'s expression shifted, causing her to quickly rein in her menacing aura.

"Tell me right away!" Lyra insisted urgently, surprising Leon once again with her unusually intense reaction.

Reyna smiled faintly, scanning the area for any passersby before turning her attention back to Lyra.

"Lady Lyra, yesterday I overheard a conversation between Archdemon Aragon and several high-ranking officials of the outer palace. They expressed their dissatisfaction with your failure to resolve the teleportation gate issue. Moreover, I also heard that today they plan to demand that Her Majesty the Demon Emperor relinquish control of the teleportation gate to them."

Upon hearing this, Lyra\'s eyes widened in shock before turning cold and sharp as she fixed her gaze on Reyna.

"Are you certain you\'re not lying, Reyna?" Lyra asked, her tone icy and indifferent.

If Reyna were to lie, Lyra would not hesitate to punish her on the spot.

Reyna shook her head, shrugged her shoulders, and replied with a smile, "I would never lie to you, Lady Lyra. I wouldn\'t dare."

Lyra narrowed her eyes but ultimately nodded in agreement. Despite Reyna\'s irritating demeanor, she wouldn\'t risk lying about such a significant matter.

Taking a deep breath, Lyra\'s expression gradually softened as she said, "Thank you for the information, Reyna."

"Of course," Reyna replied with a slight nod and a lingering smile. "Now, may I make my request?" Enjoy exclusive adventures from mvl
