9 days passed by quickly, currently, Nux was lying on a large bed inside the tent. Yes, he was still in the middle of the battlefield, however, not all of his wives liked the idea of…
Ahem…
Well, let’s just say not all of them were as bold as Edda when it comes down to it.
Evane, Lane, and Amaya just wanted a pleasant time with him, on a comfortable bed.
Of course, Nux never complained about it.
These 9 days, he gave one whole day to each of his women, doing whatever they wanted and it was not just about sex alone, he spent time with them, visited some beautiful cities, ate some delicious food, making all of them feel special.
Nux also understood this, for the last few days, he couldn’t give his wives as much time as he wanted to.
This could be due to the absurd number of wives he had. Unlike the Kings and high nobles with many wives, he does not ignore his wives and only uses them for sex, his wives were not trophies.
He loved each and every one of them and wanted to be there for them, physically and emotionally, and being there for 9 women was certainly not very easy.
Then there was also the Devouring Mist Demon Physique, which he needed to comprehend. He also had to put effort into it.
He was thankful that his wives were understanding and were always ready to support him, also, the telepathic connection they had due to the [Harem’s Gate] was helpful as well. It allowed him to be there for them whenever they needed and the women could always contact him if something did happen.
However, even with that, Nux knew he didn’t have to be there just when they faced a problem, he wanted to be with them without any specific reason as well.
And that’s why he used these 9 days to fully enjoy with his wives.
Of course, they did the snu snu as well, a lot of it.
And now,
Nux was lying on his bed, alone, with a small smile on his face.
His [Regeneration] and high stamina made it easy to give his all to all his wives, however, he still needed some mental rest.
However, if Nux thought he would finally get some mental rest, then he was wrong.
Just as he closed his eyes to sleep, a woman barged into his tent.
“I see you are finally free now.”
Astaria spoke with a small smile on her face.
“Oh, Astaria.”
Nux smiled as he sat up and gestured Astaria to sit on the bed.
Astaria walked in and a frown appeared on her face,
“What’s with this funny smell?”
“You are seriously asking that? What are you, a child?”
Nux questioned with a playful smile on his face.
Astaria’s expression changed as she realized what this funny smell was.
“Y-You shameless! How are you even lying on the bed with this peaceful expression on your face!? Doesn’t this smell bother you?”
Astaria questioned with a slightly red face.
“Heh~ Just wait for a little longer, Astaria, give me a few more weeks, and once I finally defeat you,
I will help you get used to this ‘funny smell’ as well.”
Nux chuckled.
“…”
A frown appeared on Astaria’s face.
“Hmm?” A confused expression appeared on Nux’s face.
Astaria then glanced at Nux and narrowed her eyes,
“A few more weeks?”
“Hmmm?”
Nux was now even more confused, soon, however, a playful smile appeared on his face, he crawled towards Astaria, then bringing his face very very close to Astaria’s he questioned.
“Are a few weeks too hard for you?
You should have said that sooner, Astaria~
If I knew you were this perverted, I would have worked even harder~
But don’t worry, now that I know, I would change my ways, just give me this week and I would definitely find a way to defeat you~
And then,
I will make you mine.”
Astaria’s face turned even redder, she backed away a little, Nux’s face was a little too close right now.
An unexpectedly cute reaction, especially for a warrior like her.
“A-Are you underestimating me?”
Astaria questioned as she glanced at Nux with an accusing look on her face. Combining this expression with Astaria’s face which was blushing nonstop, made her look… adorable.
*Gulp*
Nux couldn’t help but gulp…
The current Astaria was too much to handle, even for him.
“What are you talking about? How am I underestimating you?”
Nux questioned.
“You defeated Nawdren.”
Astaria spoke.
“Mhm.” Nux nodded in understanding.
“Nawdren defeated me.”
“…” Nux now understood, however, Astaria still continued,
“If you can defeat Nawdren, then defeating me is… something you can do without even putting any real effort.”
“It’s different.” Nux, however, shook his head.
“I only managed to subdue Nawdren because he used his Life Force and I was able to trap it and seal his Mana, if I actually use the Mist, then the only I would be left with is to kill.
The Devouring Mist is not a joke,
I cannot use this against you, if it stays in contact with you, even for a second, it can cause irreversible harm.”
“So you are saying that you won’t use the Mist to defeat me and are looking for another way to defeat me before you challenge me again?”
“Indeed.” Nux nodded.
Astaria finally understood.
However, Astaria’s expression turned solemn.
“So you were underestimating me.”
“Huh?”
Nux frowned. He glanced at Astaria and noticed at the blush on her face had disappeared and she continued to glare at him with a… hateful look on her face?
‘Wait…’
Suddenly, Nux’s expression changed.
‘Fuck.’
He finally realized.
“So you think I am so weak that you would find another way to defeat me within a few weeks huh.”
Astaria commented.
‘As I thought…’
*Gulp*
Nux gulped.
He fucked up.
Astaria was a warrior…
From her perspective, him not challenging her would look like he wasn’t treating her as an actual challenge.
A wry and nervous smile appeared on Nux’s face and he called,
“Astaria…
Hear me out…”
