We are the Leander Family.
“So you are telling me they devoured 43 Worlds and only 9 worlds are left? And 1 out of these 9 worlds is now given to another subordinate and is about to be devoured as well?”
Vyriana narrowed her
eyes.
…
Nux however, didn’t say anything.
He just glared at the rock person sitting in his office and his mouth twitched nonstop.
“We are going.”
Nux spoke.
Waiting and strategizing were no longer an option.
They were going all in.
Nux and all the women around him quickly left the Cosmocraft and entered the World in front of them.
*Rumble* *Rumble*
*Thunder* *Thunder*
The World trembled, clearly not wanting to welcome the newcomers. Instantly, the
beings closest to the worlds were alerted and Nux and his wives’ location was
revealed to them.
Not that they were trying to hide in the first place.
Rather, the group just slowly descended into the world.
All women except Aeliana had solemn looks on their faces as well, none of them liked the news they received, after all, this could very well mean that this might get in the
way
of them being connected to Nux.
Honestly, the women wanted nothing more than to tear the rock monster apart as
painfully as possible.
Even the women who had already formed a connection with Nux were the same. Why?
Because they could feel Nux’s true emotions. They could feel his sheer anger and a part of it was transmitting to them.
The only one relatively calmer was Aeliana.
Rather, she was looking around with a
curious look on her face as if she was here
for a picnic.
At the same time, she was also looking at
her disciple.
She wanted to see just how long it would
take before he noticed it.
It was another one of her tests.
A test Nux passed with flying colours.
“Lady Aeliana.”
Suddenly, Nux called out with a solemn look on his face.
“Hmm?”
Aeliana glanced at him, having a hard time
keeping the smile from appearing on her
face.
“I didn’t think I would ask this, but I guess I will need your help in this matter. It is
quite urgent.”
Nux spoke.
“You are glad that I came, aren’t you? You
would have had a hard time if I hadn’t.”
Aeliana chuckled.
“Well, things would have become more
complicated than necessary and I would have lost the 9th world as well.”
Nux admitted.
This, however, made Aeliana frown,
“You talk as if this wouldn’t have affected you if you weren’t bound by time.”
“I would have been forced to reveal more
of my powers than I planned to, but other than that, nothing much would have changed.”
Nux was confident.
And Aeliana couldn’t help but raise her
eyes at this confident remark. Then, as if she thought of something, a devious smile appeared on her face and,
“Alright then,
I will help you since you asked for it.
You can act like he is not here, don’t
worry.”
“Thank you.” Nux nodded at Aeliana with a light smile on his face. Aeliana nodded back, while the rest of the women couldn’t
help but frown.
They didn’t like how the conversation just ended without them knowing anything
about it.
Even the women connected with Nux were
clueless, after all, even if they could ‘feel’
his thoughts, what they could currently feel was only anger and frustration.
Nux’s current emotions were so intense
that they couldn’t pry deeper into his thoughts to understand what happened. “Explain things to us, will you?
We aren’t here just to watch some show.”
And of course, Shadow Lane wasn’t having
any
of it. Unlike Lane, she didn’t know how
to hide her thoughts, so she spoke what
other women wanted to say.
Nux glanced at the Shadowy figure
standing beside him,
“It-”
But just as he was about to explain it to her.
“Why have you come here, Voidwalkers?”
A deep, domineering voice was heard.
A voice Nux had heard before.
He turned around and his eyes fell on an
8-meter tall giant rock standing in front of
him, looking down at him with his hollow
eyes.
And he wasn’t alone, he came with around
100 Ultimate Stage Cultivators following behind him.
“How long would it take Zalang to devour
that world?”
Of course, none of that mattered to Nux,
he directly jumped to what was important.
“Huh? How do you know that? Who are
yo-”
Varain had too many questions in his mind.
This was the conversation he just had with
his subordinate and he was sure no one in this place, other than his subordinate should know about it, especially not a
voidwalker who just entered their world.
Of course, this wasn’t the only question he had. There were more.
Why does this voidwalker want to know
about it?
Who was he?
Why was he here?
Was he someone Zalang knew?
There were too many questions, however,
Nux wasn’t in the mood to entertain a rock.
He simply facepalmed and,
“Right, it was my fault.”
He admitted his mistake.
Then, he looked above, right into the eyes
of the rock and his own eyes turned red,
[How long would it take Zalang to devour that world?]
He questioned again and this time,
He didn’t face any resistance,
“It should take him about a day.”
Varain answered in a dull voice.
This made the people standing behind him blink their eyes in surprise. Was this the same Varain they knew?
To think he would not nit-pick about this
little man being rude to him or ask any questions before answering himself.
Was this little man someone Varain knew?
But that shouldn’t be possible. Varain wouldn’t have called them
Voidwalkers if he knew who they were. After all, the Voidwalkers were the term used to call beings who come from
Since
unknown origins or unknown worlds. these beings weren’t someone any of them had ever seen before, it was clear that they
were from an entirely different world, a world they didn’t know about. Or at least that’s what they thought, their
leader, however, seemed to know who they were, after all, considering his personality,
he wouldn’t answer their questions otherwise.
Maybe he only called them voidwalkers
because none of them knew who they
were.
[How long would it take me to reach the world he is in?]
“It is a five-day journey if you use normal means.”
[Do you have a way to get there immediately?]
“I have a Void Stone that can open a Portal
to that world.”
[Give that to me.]
“As you say.”
Varain nodded and suddenly, a black
crystal started floating in front of him. [How do you use it?]
“You visualize the place you want to go to, if the place is manually connected to the Void Stone, it will open a Portal once you inject your Aether into it. Equatoria is
already connected to the Void stone, so i-” [Whatever, just open the Portal for me. I’ll
learn more about this when I have time.
Nux was impatient. “As you say.”
Varain nodded again as he activated the
Void Stone and opened the Portal and the longer this interaction continued,
The more the people standing behind Varain frowned.
They couldn’t understand it.
Clearly, the little man standing in front of
them was only an Ultimate Stage Powerhouse, no matter how they looked at
him, he didn’t look like someone who could threaten them.
Then why…
Why was Lord Varain acting so submissive
in front of him? Why was he answering
every single question he asked as if he was
a subordinate reporting to his Master? Was there something they were missing?
The people started considering all sorts of possibilities, however, while they were
doing that,
The Portal was already opened.
[This will take me to Zalang and the World
he is about to devour, correct?]
“Yes.”
Varain nodded again. Nux then glanced at his wives and nodded
at them.
Play with these ones while I am away.”
Of course, Lane and Shadow Lane were
already inside his Shadow, the two women had no plans of staying away from him.
Nux knew that already so he didn’t say anything.
He simply glanced at Aeliana one last time,
the Vampire nodded assuringly and Nux
nodded back.
“I will be back soon.”
Saying those words, Nux walked into the
portal and disappeared.
The moment he was gone, the charm he used on Varain broke.
“H-Huh? Where did the one standing in
between go?”
He questioned as he glanced at the rest of
the women. The being was here just now,
how could he disappear out of nowhere?
The moment he asked this question, the
atmosphere changed.
“L-Lord Varain…?”
One of Varain’s trusted subordinates called
out.
“What is it?” Varain questioned. “You were the one who opened the Portal
for him to enter Equatoria.”
The subordinate spoke as he pointed at the
Portal.
“What…?”
Varain’s expression changed as his eyes fell
on the Portal and the Void Stone floating
above him.
“What just…”
He was confused.
Not understanding what just happened.
However, he did know one thing.
“Enter the Portal! We are all going to
Equatoria!”
He ordered but just as he was about to
move towards the Portal.
A woman with a sword in her hand stood in
front of the portal, then, with her piercing
eyes,
she glared at the rock guy in front of
him and declared, “No one’s leaving this place till we say so.” “Who do you think you ar-”
One of the subordinates called out, but before he could complete,
His head was torn off from his neck,
And the Dragon who tore it off glanced at
the rest of the beings surrounding her and,
“We are the Leander Family.” .
