“Hmmm? Are you saying you hate your lovely husband?
Now I am hurt.”
“!!!”
Hearing those playful words, the women, who were calmly drinking their tea widened their eyes and quickly turned around,
“Nux! You are back!”
Skyla shouted as she quickly rushed towards him.
However, soon, Skyla quickly noticed that Astaria was already hugging Nux before she even got close to him.
‘When did she…’
Skyla questioned inwardly.
However, she decided to get surprised later and quickly rushed towards Nux.
In this little hesitation, however, 4 more women appeared near Nux and hugged him.
Taking up all the good spots Skyla had her eyes on.
Skyla pouted.
In the end, she just jumped on top of the group in front of her and shouted again,
“Nux! You are back!”
Nux’s smiled and hugged back all his wives.
It has been a year since he saw all of them.
This was definitely the longest time he had been away from his lovely wives.
He was missing them dearly as well.
Therefore, he didn’t hold back at all, hugging every one of his wives for a good 15 minutes, feeling every part of their bodies,
His hugs weren’t perverted, he didn’t touch any one of them inappropriately, well, he did touch them inappropriately, however, the women could feel his love. He was not thinking about something perverted, he just hugged his wives because of how truly happy he was after seeing them again.
Honestly, he didn’t feel the flow of time when he was gone. This separation didn’t feel like a year to him, however, he knew it wasn’t the same for his wives.
The moment he learned that a year had passed, he quickly rushed toward his wives,
He knew they were would be worried about him.
And he was right, though they tried to hide it, he could see their worry in their expressions.
“Nux…”
While Nux was hugging Evane, a frown appeared on Astaria’s face as she muttered,
“Your cultivation…”
Hearing those words, the other women finally noticed his cultivation as well,
Honestly, they were expecting to see Nux appearing in front of them as a Sage Stage Cultivator, however, what they saw confused them all.
“King Stage…”
Thyra frowned.
“Nux…”
“How did your cultivation regress to King Stage?”
Yes, unlike how the women thought Nux would gain a power-up, he returned with a… power down…?
“Nux, what happened?”
Astaria questioned with an anxious look on her face.
“It’s nothing major, don’t worry.”
Nux smiled,
“I may look like this, but I am not necessarily weaker, alright?”
“What do you mean?”
Amaya narrowed her eyes.
“How about a spar?”
Nux suddenly suggested.
“I wish to see how much my lovely wives improved in a year.”
A smile appeared on Astaria’s face as she quickly accepted,
“Who do you wish to fight against?”
She questioned, however, with how she had already taken out her sword, everyone knew what answer she was expecting.
However,
“All of you come at me together.”
Nux smiled.
The women frowned,
“Are you sure?”
“Trust me.” Nux kept his smile.
“…as you say.”
Astaria didn’t fight.
A mere King Stage Cultivator fighting against 10 Emperors alone…
This was an absolutely ridiculous notion that Astaria would never believe… but if that ‘mere King Stage’ cultivator was this bastard…
Then…
Then things were different.
No matter how ridiculous it sounded…
Astaria glanced at her sisters, they nodded back, took out their weapons, and quickly took their positions,
‘Don’t underestimate him just because he is a King Stage Cultivator.’
Astaria spoke through the connection.
The women nodded, Astaria didn’t have to say that.
None of them would do something as stupid as underestimating this monster.
The women took their battle stance, waiting for Nux to attack.
“You all are a little too passive.”
Nux spoke as he pointed his index finger at his women, a Magic Circle of a radius of 2-centimeter appeared in front of his finger, it was around 5 times smaller compared to the normal Magic circle, however, as small as it was, it was also fast,
The Circle shined, a small fireball appeared, and then it shot towards the women.
“!!!”
Astaria’s eyes widened,
She glanced at Edda and Felberta, who were getting ready to defend against this attack with their Mana and Shield, and shouted,
“DODGE!!”
Edda and Felberta’s expressions changed, however, before they could react, it was already too late.
*BOOOOMM*
A huge explosion, although not as strong as the time Nux attacked the buildings, it was still frightening.
Felberta and Edda…
Thinking what happened to them… Astaria’s heart started beating rapidly.
She glanced at Nux again, wanting to see his expression, however, he was nowhere to be seen.
“DODGE!!”
Amaya shouted.
*BOOOOOMM*
Another explosion.
“Disperse! Disperse! Don’t stay in groups!”
Ember shouted as well.
*BOOOOOMM* *BOOOOOMM* *BOOOOOMM*
The entire area was filled with horrifying explosions.
Alerting all the surrounding slaves.
Astaria didn’t know how to react.
This battle…
Heck, it didn’t even look like a battle…
‘How the hell is that bastard shooting so many of these Fireballs!?’
She thought inwardly.
“You are thinking too much, Star.
Keep your focus on the battle.”
Suddenly, Astaria heard a calm voice behind her, without waiting for even a fraction of a second, she charged her sword aura and attacked almost instantaneously.
“!!!”
Her eyes, however, widened in horror when Nux grabbed her sword, which was laced with her sword aura, with her thumb and index finger.
One had to know, this attack had the power to cut through Nawdren’s body as if it was paper. Nawdren, a pseudo-Sage does everything in his power to dodge her sword whenever it is laced with Sword Aura…
But this bastard…
He was grabbing that sword with his finger, and that too, with a smile on his face…
Astaria was sure, even the Emperor Stage Nux couldn’t have done something like this.
‘Just what in the hell happened to him!?’
“Did you not hear what I said?
Focus on the Battle, Star.
Not that you would have much of a chance even if you do that.”
As he said those words, Astaria suddenly felt her entire body weakening up.
“Huh…?”
She frowned.
This sudden weakness…
She tried to fight it…
However,
“Just sleep for a while…”
Nux whispered and as if her body had already given up,
Astaria’s eyes turned heavy and she…
Passed out…
The battle between 10 Emperors against 1 King Stage Cultivator…
Was over within 1 minute…
