1392 Law of Serene Bond.
“Let’s talk,
Just the two of us.”
Faustina spoke as she looked into Nux’s eyes, her blue eyes shining intensely. Seeing her expression, Nux narrowed his eyes. This was the first time he had seen his mother act like that.
Her tone that left no option of refusal, a gentle woman like Faustina rarely used such a tone, especially while interreacting with Nux.
Nux momentarily glanced at Skyla, who was in his arms, he wanted to know what Law the woman had formed and how she did it.
Skyla, who noticed his gaze, chuckled.
“You should go.”
She spoke. Then, the woman moved her mouth close to Nux’s ear and,
“After all, you know I am not running anywhere~” She whispered in his ears in a voice so seductive that even Allura raised her eyebrow.
It might be a whisper but with the advanced hearing of the people present, everyone heard those words clearly. Once again, the women were reminded that behind that mask of the cheerful and adorable girl, there was a woman, a mature woman who knew how to get what she wanted.
Nux’s body trembled as he heard those words, for an instant, he wanted to push the auburn-haired woman to the nearby wall and ravage her right here and then, however, controlling his emotions, he calmed himself and nodded in understanding.
Looking at the serious expression on Faustina’s face, he knew his mother wanted to tell him something important, therefore, without wasting any more time, “Alright, Mother.”
Saying those words, he placed Skyla back on the ground, of course, he didn’t forget to give her a light peck on her lips before walking towards his mother. Faustina, however, simply stared at his shadow and didn’t say anything.
“Tsk.”
A minute later, Nux’s shadow trembled and materialized into Lane, who stood next to the rest of the women.
‘She definitely snorted in annoyance, didn’t she?’ Allura questioned using the women’s connection.
The rest of the women nodded.
‘Sneaky bitch.’ Amaya cursed as she glared at the woman in envy. She was willing to give up her Absolute Law if she could have that woman’s law in exchange.
A thought shared by most of the women here. After all, the ability to be with Nux all the time was… extremely enviable.
While the women were busy staring at Lane with hostile looks, Faustina held Nux’s arm and disappeared, only when they noticed that their husband had disappeared did the women finally come out of their reveries, and Felberta was the first one to walk towards Skyla.
“I can’t believe you formed your Law in such a manner.” She commented as she placed her hand on the woman’s shoulder.
“I knew what Law I wanted to form, I dived into the techniques that Allura was taught when she was in Lust State, I also read books related to psychology that I borrowed from Amaya. While I had confidence in myself since I seemed to be stuck, I felt like I was doing something wrong, but I guess that I just needed a trigger.” Skyla replied, her eyes shining in unusual brilliance, the brilliance the woman usually hid behind her pure and innocent side.
Felberta stared at the woman in silence for a while, then, she finally commented on what she had been holding back for a while, “I thought your Law would be related to Protection or Strength since you were…”
The woman didn’t need to complete her sentence.
Everyone could tell what she was talking about. It was about the time when Skyla was attacked by Arcturus’s men, although Nux protected her, a part of his human bloodline was devoured by his previously uncontrollable Incubus Blood, that incident weakened Nux and despite Skyla acting like she was fine, Everyone, even Nux knew that incident still bothered her. Of course, Nux spoiled the woman a lot, wanting her to forget about it, he even reassured her saying that everything that happened was for the good because that is how they reached where they had, however, Nux still knew that Skyla was bothered by it.
Considering all this, Felberta believed that Skyla’s Law would be related to something that would help her avoid such an incident, just like how Evane formed her Law that would help her avoid the illusion of her being unable to heal Nux she saw.
“Nux will protect me.”
Skyla looked into Felberta’s eyes with so much surety that Felberta couldn’t help but feel overwhelmed by the woman’s emotions.
“No matter what happens, no matter where is happens, even if Nux is somewhere far away from me, I do not know how he will do it, but I know he will protect me.”
That was the unshakable confidence the woman had in her husband.
“Rather than something that would cover my weakness, I needed something I could use to help him.” A lovely smile then appeared on Skyla’s face as she continued, “And I formed my Law.”
“What is your Law…?” Unable to contain her curiosity any further, Amaya questioned.
“Law of Serene Bond,” Skyla answered and when she noticed how the women were looking at her, waiting for her to explain her Law further, her smile widened as she started, “As most of you have already sensed, the energy I use is not Mana anymore, it is ‘Aura of Serenity’, a much, lighter, purer, and positive energy compared to Mana, which is more of a neutral energy.
Yes, inclining myself to a particular side weakens me, since neutrality will have more versatility, but the benefits Aura of Serenity provides me is something I cannot ignore since it is something, I believe we all need.
My Law allows me to use Aura of Serenity, and using this energy, my ‘presence’ becomes more ‘calming’, of course, the effects of my power depend on the individual’s strength and the level of the grudge he holds, however, in general, my ability allows me to soothe those around me, helping in calming aggressive foes, easing conflicts, and making negotiations successful.
My Law also automatically creates a protective shield around the people I ‘Bond’ with, this shield, to some extent, can protect me and my bonds from negative emotions and mind attacks. I think I can increase the strength of this shield, but I cannot say anything with certainty right now, it is still blurry for me.
I can also use Aura of Serenity to ‘Heal’ others, of course, my physical healing isn’t as strong as that of Sister Evane, or even the Elves, who are popular for their healing abilities, however, when it comes to healing mental traumas, I am second to none.”
Skyla spoke, lifting her chest with pride.
The women hearing her words raised their eyebrows, Skyla’s Law was much stronger than they initially expected, Mental Protection, no matter what sort, was always good, after all, it wasn’t the physical attacks that were the scariest, but the mental ones.
Not to mention the advantage in the negotiations part, Amaya was already thinking of countless ways to use this power to her advantage.
However, Skyla wasn’t done yet,
“Since the energy I now use is on the positive side, I am also more perceptive of the ‘negatives’, I can now sense an individual’s negative emotions, I can also sense danger and my instincts have gotten much stronger than before.”
Then suddenly, a dagger appeared in her hand, she then materialized her white energy and infused the energy into the dagger, “This is Aura Infusion, I can infuse weapons with my serene aura, imbuing them with tranquil energy. Sticking opponents with these weapons will not only inflict physical harm but also induce a sense of calmness in our opponents, potentially incapacitating them or rendering them more susceptible to persuasion. Of course, we can also use this moment of weakness to gain an advantage in the battle, hehe~”
Skyla laughed like a mischievous demon who was planning the end of the world in a comical way.
The rest of the women, however, weren’t amused. They were shocked.
One had to know, the girl had barely formed her Law… yet… she already listed down so many uses…
The women feared just what her Law would turn out to be once she developed it even further…
It wasn’t just them, even Vyriana was taken aback.
“I knew that using a different energy gives a lot of advantages but…
Isn’t this a little too ridiculous?” She commented.
Aeliana, who at some point, was accompanied by Melia, turned towards the girl and,
“Just what the hell is up with your group?” The Pseudo Leader of the Ancestral Order questioned.
A weak smile appeared on Melia’s face, “Don’t put me together with that bunch, I am not as monstrous as them.”
“Should a Bloodheart be saying something like that?” Aeliana raised her eyebrow.
“Do you think Bloodhearts have ever given birth to monsters as strong as them?” Melia questioned back and Aeliana turned silent.
Nux’s wives were on another level. She admitted it, but the thing was…
This woman next to her was one of the said wives!
She wasn’t supposed to say something like that!
“Lady Aeliana.”
Suddenly, Melia called out.
“Hmm?” Aeliana turned towards the fellow Vampire.
Melia looked at Aeliana’s face, her crimson eyes shining intensely as she said what she wanted to say,
“I need your help.”
