1426 Nux Leander, an Emperor Stage Cultivator and… my first disciple
“I won’t sleep.”
Nux replied in an instant, the hatred in his eyes couldn’t be hidden.
It was as if the very act of sleeping disgusted him, something that grabbed Aeliana’s attention. For some reason, however, she felt like it wasn’t a topic Nux would like to talk about right now.
And she was correct.
Nux had already spent a few years without his wives, honestly, this wasn’t the first time he had done it, he had done the same while training with Vyriana, however, the problem here was much more annoying.
Here, his ‘wives’ were right in front of him. Wives he was attracted to, but at the same time, he was disgusted by. These feelings were so complex that they often exhausted him mentally. Not to mention thinking about his ‘fake’ wives’ safety almost the entire time he was in here made it even more impossible for him to not miss his real wives.
And knowing that sleeping would only delay their meeting made him repulsed by it. Even if the delay would only be of few hours, Nux still found it repulsive.
He wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.
“I guess you didn’t reach where you did just because you are talented, you are a hard worker,” Aeliana commented with a smile on her face.
“But I am quite surprised, you don’t seem very surprised by the fact that there exist intelligent races other than humans.” She commented.
Clearly, it was her attempt to change the topic that seemed uncomfortable for Nux, an action Nux appreciated a lot.
“Well, 2 of your subordinates following you had horns on their head, so unless that was some sort of fashion trend, I could already guess that humans weren’t the only intelligent race in Yrniel.
Plus, you didn’t exactly look like a normal human either, your unreasonably pale skin, crimson eyes and unearthly beauty stood out quite a lot you know?”
“Beauty huh…?” Aeliana just stared at the boy in front of her with a smile, “I highly doubt that you are in a position to say something like that. When you first appeared, I doubted if you were even a human to begin with. Even the Vampire and Elven men couldn’t be compared to you when it came to beauty.”
“Thank you for the compliment, Master,” Nux replied with a playful smile on his face. “Though I must stop you right here, I am not currently interested in romantic relationships.”
Aeliana raised her eyebrows when she heard those words.
“You little brat, aren’t you getting a little ahead of yourself?” Of course, the Vampire still had a smile on her face when she said those words.
She obviously wouldn’t lose her temper because of something like this, she was far more mature than that.
“That is not the case, Master. I just do not wish to break your heart. It is quite common you see.”
Aeliana’s mouth twitched.
Wasn’t her disciple a little too narcissistic?
Sure, looking at that face, she could see it being true but… what’s with that annoying smirk on his face?
Was he trying to agitate her in order to get punched?
Nux, who suddenly felt a shiver down his spine decided to stop what he was doing.
“Anyways, jokes aside, why did Master summon me?” he questioned, changing the topic.
Aeliana momentarily stared at him, then, she decided to go with the flow and replied,
“I simply wanted to know if you had settled in or were facing any problems.”
“Thank you for taking care of me, Master. I am doing perfectly well. I have everything I would need in the house you gave me.” Nux answered honestly.
Aeliana nodded in understanding, then suddenly, an evil smirk appeared on her face. The moment he saw that smirk, Nux felt a foreboding feeling washing over his body and before he could question or say anything, a white, translucent orb appeared in Aeliana’s hand and he sensed the Vampire’s Mana being infused into the orb.
“W-What is th-”
He wanted to question, however, before he could complete,
“Nux Leander, act carefully.
Your face is currently being shown all over the High and Low Order.”
He heard Aeliana’s voice echoing in his mind and he widened his eyes.
…
“Haah? Why are you so weak? Can’t you take even a single punch properly? Block my attacks dammit, how are you going to improve if you keep acting like that?”
A man with a well-built physique, horns on his head, golden eyes and dragon scales all over his body spoke with a disappointed look on his face.
In front of him, was a pale-skinned, crimson-eyed man, sitting on the floor, there was a rough bruise on his cheek which was healing rapidly. The man looked at the Dragon in front of him and spoke with a slight frown on his face, “Why don’t you go train with some muscle brain that matches your battle style instead?”
“Haah? How am I supposed to grow if I train with only one type of person? Have you lost your mind or something?”
“…”
The Vampire had no words.
Honestly, he wanted to complain, he didn’t wish to be stuck with a fool like him however, he had no cho”Nux Leander, act carefully.
Your face is currently being shown all over the High and Low Order.”
Suddenly, the Vampire’s and the Dragon’s attention was grabbed by a sound they heard. Turning their head above, they saw a huge screen hovering in the sky.
Looking around, they saw multiple such screens hovering all over the sky, it was as if it was being made sure that every living being present here saw this and hearing the voice of the woman they recognised very well, everyone stared at the screen intensely.
“Ah, I guess it is activated.”
The woman spoke, then, a slight smile appeared on her face as the screen showed her beautiful place, “My people,
I apologize for interrupting what you were doing. I appear before you because I have an announcement to make.
With a joyful heart, let me introduce you, Nux Leander, an Emperor Stage Cultivator and… my first disciple.”
The instant those words were said, all hell broke loose.
