“She is not ready to face the trail yet.
We need to train her.”
Aisha spoke with a serious look on her face.
Allura glanced at Aisha and a wry smile appeared on Aisha’s face,
“It is not your fault, your continent didn’t have enough Mana.
None of you know how to actually use Mana right now,
Of course, don’t worry, I’ll help you through it, I am sure that with your talent, you will own the Trial and will become a Succbuss with a really strong Bloodline!”
Aisha smiled enthusiastically.
“Alright then, it is decided.”
Suddenly, Eisheth spoke up.
“I will give you a slot in the Ancient Trial, as for training you, well, I will hand that over to your friend. Aisha will be responsible for all that.
That is it.”
Aisha smiled, and then, she turned around.
She knew what her mother wanted.
She quickly grabbed Nux’s arm and took him out,
She didn’t want Nux to stay in this room either. Nux’s wives followed the two of them as well.
Now the only ones left inside the room were Eisheth, Rislith, and Maline.
“A 22-Year-old Body and Mana Cultivator huh…
And he supposedly came from a Continent where Mana was sparse.”
Rislith commented with a wry smile on her face.
“What a freak…”
Maline commented as well.
Eisheth just smiled.
Rislith glanced at her mother and commented,
“Mother seemed interested in that boy.”
“Hmm? Did it look that way?”
“It did look that way,
You even said that you were willing to leave your consorts for him.”
“Hahaha~”
Eisheth laughed out loud.
“Mother, it is not a laughing matter, were your words true?”
Eisheth then glanced at her daughter and then chuckled,
“Do you really think I would go that far for an Emperor Staage Cultivator?”
“I don’t, that is the reason I am confused,
Mother showed a little too much interest, it has been a while since I have seen a smile on your face.”
“But I always have a smile on my face though?”
Eisheth tilted her head with a playful smile on her face.
“Do not try to fool me, mother. The smile on your face is just a way for you to hide what you are actually thinking,
This time, things were a little different, you were actually smiling back then.”
“Oh? You think you understand your mother now?”
Eisheth chuckled.
“Mother, I have been observing you for 4000 years now, I know a lot more about you than you think.”
Rislith replied with a serious look on her face.
Eisheth glanced at her eldest daughter for a while, then, she smiled and patted her head,
“You are right,
That boy is a little interesting,
Not just his talent, his personality, his body language, all of it has some sort of charm to it.”
“Mother sounds like a woman in love.”
Rislith commented.
“Hahaha~
If only I could actually fall in love.”
Rislith smiled wryly as well.
She understood what her mother was talking about.
“Anyways, keep an eye on that boy. Be a little careful around him.”
“Huh?”
Suddenly, Eisheth spoke up and Rislith frowned.
“What do you mean?”
“That boy’s talent is too overwhelming; it can be dangerous. Send someone to this new continent, and learn more about him. He is not a threat right now, and I hope that stays the same.
It is better to have him as an Ally.”
Rislith frowned,
“Is mother… saying that he is dangerous? A threat to us?”
“Huh? A Threat to us? Of course not.
I am saying his potential is too scary, he is someone whose future I cannot see through, so I need to be careful around him.
I just don’t want to break Aisha’s heart by killing him.
That girl is more attached to him than you think.”
Eisheth replied.
“But that boy seems to be rejecting Aisha.”
Rislith commented.
“That boy is a little too possessive, we succubuses are not exactly a good match for him.”
Eisheth replied.
“Heeh? It didn’t seem that way when he was talking to you.”
Rislith chuckled, Eisheth, however, just smiled wryly.
“And that is why that boy piqued my interest.”
“What does that mean?”
“That boy wasn’t serious.”
“Huh?”
Maline and Rislith’s expressions changed.
“Even if I did accept his advances and everything, he still wouldn’t have taken any step further. He didn’t flirt with me because he was interested in me, he was flirting with me because he was nervous. He just didn’t want to show any openings.”
“He was flirting because he didn’t wish to show any openings?”
Maline frowned.
“Indeed, he was standing in front of a Divine Stage Cultivator, a single mistake could mean his and his wives’ death. Any sane person would be nervous in this situation,
Therefore, in order to not show any openings, he used the fact that he knew Aisha and started flirting, this way, even if he did make a mistake, he could cover it up by saying it was a playful joke.”
“That… is a strange way to handle a situation.”
Rislith frowned.
“Why would you start flirting when you are nervous…?”
“Hahaha~ That is why he was entertaining.”
Eisheth laughed out loud.
“Watching him making all those uncomfortable and panicked expressions before he says anything was so much fun.”
“Uncomfortable and Panicked expressions?”
Rislith frowned.
Why didn’t she see anything like that?
“Everything he did looked pretty effortless to me…”
Maline commented and Rislith nodded in agreement.
“Hahaha~ it was ‘effortless’ indeed.
If only you two could read his face.” Eisheth chuckled.
Maline and Rislith glanced at each other and didn’t know what to say…
Their mother…
She had a… weirdly satisfied expression on her face…
“Mother…”
Suddenly, Rislith called out.
“What do you think about that boy?”
“I told you already, didn’t I? He is inter-”
“No, I want to know your real thoughts.
What do you actually think about him?
If he accepts Aisha and marries her, would you accept him as the son-in-law of Lust State?”
Rislith cut her mother’s words off and questioned with a serious look on her face.
Eisheth glanced at her daughter for a while, then, a small smile appeared on her face and she replied,
“Him becoming the son-in-law of the Lust State?
I actually hope that happens, but
I also know that it is nothing more than a False Hope.
Him marrying Aisha and becoming my Son-in-law,
I cannot see it happening.”
