So what are we supposed to do with him?
“I believe I can only absorb one Law per world,
So if I want to form a connection with all of
them,
I need to devour 11 more Worlds.
And of course, this is when I am not counting Eisheth, Lyriana, and…”
“And?”
Aeliana tilted her head.
“Nothing.”
Nux just smiled.
Then, he quickly shifted the focus, not giving the Vampire enough time to think,
“Anyways, as I said, for now, I need 11 more Worlds.
We have 8 more here, then I will be
needing 3 more.”
“That’s… quite a lot.”
Aeliana spoke as she started thinking about all this.
“How do you plan on getting more worlds?”
“I do not know.” Nux shook his head.
“We will plan that later.”
He spoke as he turned towards his wives.
The women nodded back with smiles on their faces.
“Right, it is time to focus on these 8 worlds for now.”
Vyriana spoke.
“We already have this one, now we just need to focus on the other seven,” Felberta commented and the women supported her theory.
“Exactly, I believe that if we divide it well
amongst ourselves, we can take over all
seven of them while Nux devours this one.”
Ember was confident as well.
“Their forces are divided, they would barely
have over 100 Divines protecting each
world,
Me, Felberta, Vyriana, Astaria, Ember and
Melia can take 6 worlds,
Thyra, Aisha, and Skyla will attack the
seventh one.
Mother, Evane, Lane and Shadow Lane will
be there with Nux while he devours this
world.”
Amaya was quick to divide tasks among everyone, however,
“No.”
Nux was quick to shake his head.
The Universe’s reaction was different than
before, it surrounded him with dense Universal Energy when he devoured the
last world, if something like that happened again, then Evane, Lane and Shadow Lane would be safe inside his Shadow, however, the same couldn’t be said for Riona.
Since she wasn’t connected to him, she wouldn’t be able to enter his Shadow.
And surrounded by that much Universal Energy, Riona wouldn’t be able to survive even if she used her Law to its fullest
extent.
Nux would never let Riona risk her life like
this, and Amaya, who understood his reasoning as she sensed his feelings, didn’t
bother arguing either.
After all, she had been with him long
enough to know that he would never listen when it came to the security of his wives
no matter what she did.
“Alright, Felberta will
go with you,
Aisha and Skyla will attack the Sixth World,
Mother and Thyra will attack the Seventh
World,
Does that work?”
“Yes.”
Nux agreed.
As much as he wanted to not let his wives
go and take unnecessary risks and wanted
them to always be safe, he knew it was impossible. Cultivation was never supposed to be safe and risk-free anyways, not to mention his wives weren’t weak.
He was sure they could take on weakened Lowest Level Worlds on their own.
Especially when these Worlds are already
shaken by the view Varain had shown them before his death. The moment they would see these women descend into their world, Nux was sure that at least half of their force would simply cave in.
Of course, there was also the option of
attacking the seven worlds one after the other, an option that would pretty much ensure his wives’ safety, however, even Nux, who would go to any lengths to
ensure his wives’ safety, wasn’t planning on taking that option.
After all, if the Worlds start falling one after
another, the leftover worlds would know
they have no power to resist and like cornered rats, they might take an extreme step and devour their world on their own, essentially killing themselves but at the same time, not giving their enemies what they want.
An option many would choose if they are desperate enough.
Nux and his wives didn’t have to be geniuses to know that some beings of these
worlds, mostly the leaders, were already
considering this option, however, right now, there is too much uncertainty and chaos for this to work.
After all, these leaders would need to
convince around a hundred Divine Stage Cultivators to willingly give up their own and their family’s lives for them, after all, unlike before, where they could simply have these people form a connection with another world and help them survive, now, this option wasn’t available anymore.
They had no more worlds they could form connections with, and without a World, no Divine Stage Cultivator would willingly give
his and his family’s lives just to let another Divine Stage Cultivator take over their world. At least not till they still have some hope in their hearts.
‘What if those women were only after Varain?’
‘What if they do not know about their
Worlds?’
‘What if rather than full destruction, they just want to take over the Association instead and what they did to Varain was only to set an example?’
‘What if they can become subordinates
instead? Then they and their families wouldn’t have to die.’
Of course, all these were far-stretched
hopes, but when a being is desperate enough, even the smallest, slightest of hope is enough to cling onto.
So Nux and his wives were planning to use
this ‘slight hope’ to their advantage and
attack while these Divine Stage Cultivators were still hopeful enough to survive. “We do not have a lot of time, let’s get to
it.”
Ember declared, excited to fight a battle that might actually put her at risk this time.
Unlike other women taking on other worlds alone, her Law didn’t exactly support her fighting alone, her Law didn’t
allow her to take on multiple people at the same time, and nor was it strong enough to overwhelm them through sheer strength. It was a battle where she would need to go
all out, a battle she might lose.
After all, she didn’t just have to face around 100 Divine Stage Cultivators, she also had to face tens of thousands of lower-level cultivators trying their hardest to protect their world.
Just thinking about it filled Ember with endless excitement.
She wanted to see just how far she could
actually push her Dragon Form in this battle.
Of course, there was also an option of
enslaving the enemies using the Slave Seal,
increasing the numbers of her side and letting her Law come into effect.
Yes, the General was already coming up with plans to win this battle. And seeing the look on her face, even if
Nux wanted to say anything to her, he couldn’t.
Those fiery, brave eyes were the reason he
fell for this woman in the first place, how
could he let this spark die when she was with him?
He just stared at Aeliana, who nodded at
him assuringly and he nodded back with a grateful look on his face.
“Alright then, my lovely wives,
I will be countin-”
“You…”
Just as Nux was about to send his wives
away,
the group “Who are you people…?
heard a voice.
Why are you doing this to us…?”
The being spoke again.
He still couldn’t stand since Aeliana’s Law
was simply too powerful for him to resist, however, seeing how his body was trembling constantly, it was clear that he
was trying to resist for a long time and had finally gathered enough strength to be able to speak.
Aeliana raised her eyebrows in amusement when she saw that, Nux on the other hand, momentarily stared at the Vampire, then he looked at the shaved Volareth before turning back towards the Vampire again
and,
“So what are we supposed to do with him?”
“Hmm? Didn’t you say this wasn’t a big
problem if you had enough time? I saved it
for
you to deal with.
Of course, I do know that you don’t exactly
have a lot of time, so I can deal with him if
you want.
But just so you know, even if he is a Primordial, he will lose most of his strength
the moment you devour this World. You won’t be able to fight him after that.”
Nux’s smile widened when he heard Aeliana’s words.
He knew the woman knowingly reduced
the power of her Law, allowing Selvith to speak and gain their attention.
She wanted to see.
She wanted to test him.
And Nux, who wanted to impress his
‘Master’, wasn’t planning to leave this chance.
Especially not now, when this being was nothing more than a… minor inconvenience.
“I’ll do it.”
Nux nodded as he started stretching his
body.
He wanted to test just how strong he had become anyway, Divines wouldn’t stand a
chance against him anymore, so this was a perfect opportunity.
Aeliana didn’t waste time either, With a wave of her hand, Nux and Selvith
were teleported to the middle of the battlefield, surrounded by a barrier neither of them could break no matter what they
did and at the same time, a suggestion was
imprinted into the enemy Primordial’s
mind,
[Defeat the man in front of you and save
your life. “Three, two, and…
Fight.”
Aeliana declared, removing the seals from
Selvith’s body and the instant this
happened,
The entire battlefield turned black, it was
as if night had taken over..
