*Her eyes were like piercing daggers, she rose her head slightly to face him but she really wanted to get through this interaction, so she could tend to her people, if it wasn't her people she didn't really care what happened to the young man. She thought for a few moments as the man formally introduced himself, perhaps she should show a bit more hospitality at least in the sense of offering him a doctor or healer of sorts as she was about to speak she narrowed her eyes towards him as she knew he said something that felt like a snarky remark that he woven within his smooth sentence she didn't have education of royalty or anything so it had slipped past her he had insulted her intelligence in a smooth way she had much to learn in terms of academics and education but in terms of battle, and strategy, she was nigh unparalleled.*

`"I understand you feel as if we have wronged you in some way, for the actions of one's subordinates for this."`

*She looked to wei and he seemingly already took over so she would remain quiet until wei was done as wei mentioned that the boy was going to draw his sword she had magic spells forming she didn't see it, she couldn't see his mana or anything even though she was obviously much stronger in almost every way but stealth was not her specialty. She would wait until Wei was done as things may turn violent so she would hold off on her questions for now she did however want to learn of the mans powers, where he came from, what was his motives just in case they have to deal with other people with similar powers she wanted to arm herself with knowledge.*

*Had his bloodless step activated except for the distortion so he would appear normal like any other human amongst them, except for his qi and his eyes, the eyes couldn't hide utter confidence as if he had no fear but not foolish kind, he had amazing posture standing straight up infront of them not s slouch or sagging shoulders his head wss held up high.*

`"This young man, requires no apology, just only wishing to express a grievance."`

*Seeing the man notice his own movement of his hand moving closer to his sword, he thought for a few moments that man was not normal but sensed nothing from him he was human? Impossible. An assassin perhaps? Able to conceal everything within himself like he does? His hand moves away from his cloak and Infront of him having black pure leather gloves he moved his hands into a more visible position even at the thought of drawing his sword the man had seen through his movements his hand hadn't even touched his hilt seeing the man's eyes glare upon him it felt like he was in a pit looking up at s towering mountain that passed the clouds.*

`"That is true, given the circumstances palace master."`

*He bowed his head in respect before speaking again 

`"I say with all respect to you and all your honor and glory, is it wrong for this guest to be on edge after being accosted? Now being in the presence of such strong individuals it would put anyone at there wits end."`

*Seeing the demon lord remain emotionally detached from the scenario if it weren't for him not being able to feel emotions he would be terrifying being before a demon lord a human with unknown powers three elders that he saw there power first hand.*

`"If this young man may inquire to the reason of being called to the majesty's throne and the palace master's presence?"`

*Wei Wuxian sighed and smiled gently before walking towards Asius to look at him closer. He looked at the eyes of confidence which burn within Asius' head, commendable to show such eyes while in front of powerful beings.*

"Then you may speak freely, this place is where one can raise their grievance to the ears of the Queen."

*Getting closer, he paid attention to close detail of Asius, he watched his breathing pattern, surveyed his body language, behaviors, anything to understand and analyze the person before them. Noticing his mana circuits, he only nodded*

"Ha ha ha, this young man sure knows how to talk. But no no no, you are entitled to such emotions, if you were feeling those emotions. So please, I will kindly ask you this once, whose heart was supposed to be pierced by your sword?"

*He asked, whilst walking past him, his eyes flew brightly, if he looked directly into them, Asius would be put into an illusionary trap which Wei Wuxian was capable of manipulating, a sort of formation that required the conditions of looking into his eyes.*

"That is for the Queen before us to answer"

*The elders stood there sighing, feeling the pressure and gaze of Wei Wuxian. They knew he knew they were placing bets... However, Elder Guang especially looked away, as his choice to bring Asius back as a guest was perhaps a mistake... The pressure and gaze upon him gave him a cold sweat. However, they knew this between the 3 of them knew it is a battle of wits, not of strength*
