There have no reason to know or even hear of any of it.
“I want to help two Divine Stage Cultivators
form their Law and reform their
Cultivation so that they can become Complete Cultivators. How can I do it?”
Nux questioned, his playful mood changing in an instant.
Azriel wasn’t surprised by the sudden shift in tone, a million years could do a lot to any mind, he knew it better than most people.
What he was surprised about, however,
“Why are you asking me?”
Nux stared at Azriel and didn’t say anything,
“You said you are the one who was going to do the talking, why are you asking questions here?”
“I said I wanted to discuss it, discussions
involve questions.”
“And how is your question going to help
the Progenitors?”
“Because they are weak.”
Nux declared and Azriel raised his
eyebrow.
“Any single one of them can defeat you with their eyes closed, you know?”
“That’s because of my lacking cultivation level, what do you think would happen
once I get to the stage they are at?”
“Do you even know the name of the stage they are at?” Azriel questioned with a disdainful smirk.
“So you mean to tell me that you plan on keeping things as they are and have no problems that the people closest to you don’t even have a Law? That they are not even strong enough to defend themselves if things go wrong at some point?
You are telling me you have no problems if the people who sacrifice so much for you remain weak and might possibly die in the future?”
Nux questioned and this time, Azriel momentarily turned silent.
“Right, I forgot that you knew about it.”
||
…
Nux didn’t say anything.
“How many people have you revealed this
to?”
“Only my wives.”
“And I thought Faustina told you not to reveal it to anyone.”
“I don’t hide things from my wives.” Nux’s reply was quick. He, however, forgot who was standing in front of him.
“That doesn’t seem to be the case to me.”
Azriel spoke with a light smile on his face.
Who was Nux’s fooling?
Azriel was the only being who had seen and
knew about the million years Nux had spent inside the Illusion, he probably knew
more about him than Nux himself did.
Not hiding things from his wives?
Azriel was 100% sure that he hadn’t
revealed everything that happened inside
the Illusion to his wives yet.
He just couldn’t, his personality wouldn’t
allow that.
And the Vampire Progenitor was correct.
“There have no reason to know or even hear of any of it. It was just an illusion, it
doesn’t mean anything.”
“Doesn’t seem that way to me.
The mere illusion seems to have made
quite an impact in your head.”
“We are not here to talk about me, Lord
Azriel.”
Nux quickly changed the topic.
“Why is that? You seem to be quite eager to
talk about me or the people close to me,
then why hesitate when the topic shifts to
you?”
“You already know everything about me, Lord Azriel.
I do not.”
“You know a fair bit, no? After all, you did
get close to Faustina in some of your lives to learn more.”
Azriel replied with an all-knowing smile on
his face.
Nux didn’t react, there was no point in hiding anything from this man, and he knew it well, so he acted as if all of this was normal and continued,
“I only know a few details, while you know everything. There is a difference.”
“What do
you wish to know?” Azriel questioned with a curious look on his face.
“I have questions regarding your journey
from Azriel Origin to Azriel Ruinous.”
“Oh?” Azriel raised his eyebrows. “What questions?”
Now he was even more interested in the
topic. “Before I start, I want to reiterate that story to make sure that what I know isn’t
wrong and both of us are on the same page.”
“Sure.” Azriel nodded.
“You were one of the Progenitors, the first
to be born in Yrniel, correct?”
“The Firstborns were the Star Beasts, I and
the other Progenitors were the first intelligent beings that were born.”
“Right.”
Nux nodded.
“After you were born, you and the other Progenitors stayed together, formed what you called the Union, defeated the Star
Beasts, took over Yrniel, became the
strongest beings in Yrniel and then your children took over.”
“Yes.”
“New and new generations came in, they were weaker compared to their predecessors, but there were still some
exceptional ones amongst them. Anyways, life in Yrniel expanded, even disputes started, empires, kingdoms, clans, all sorts
of powers came together and destroyed as more and more time passed. Then, the first Generations started dying
because their lifetime came to an end.
Slowly, even your first daughter, Aeliana Origin died.
Out of grief and having no attachment to
what Yrniel had become, you decided to end your life.”
“That is correct.”
Azriel nodded, despite him trying his best
to hide them, Nux was able to notice small changes in his expression.
“It was then that the Yrniel’s Protection
shield broke, the barrier it had placed to protect it from outer space shattered, other worlds’ forces saw a new world and pounced on it,
The Progenitors resisted well, but without
the Strongest Progenitor with them, it was
a difficult fight.
In the end, Yrniel was forced to recreate
the protection shield and then…
You returned and became Azriel Ruinous, yes?”
Azriel stared at Nux for a while, then, he nodded.
“That is what others think,
yes.”
“What others think?” Nux frowned.
Azriel however, just waved his hand and,
“Ask what you want to ask. Your story is somewhat correct.”
He hushed Nux to continue his question.
“Before
you returned, you were just like other Progenitors, correct?
You didn’t have a Law of your own.”
“Azriel Origin didn’t have a Law, yes.”
Azriel nodded.
“And now you do have a Law.”
“I do, yes.” “Then what I don’t understand is that why
have you not done the same thing with the other Progenitors till now? Why not help them start from the
beginning and form their Law? Who knows? Because of their knowledge, they might form a Law much stronger than anything you have ever seen before.”
