“If you actually wish to take control over your own life, achieve what only a few in 1000 years achieve,
Then join me,
And enjoy the journey that leads to Greatness.”
Melia spoke as her eyes shined with determination.
Hearing her words, a small smile appeared on Nux’s face.
“I have to say, Lady Melia, I did not expect to hear something like this from you.”
Melia didn’t say anything and waited for Nux to continue,
“So you want us to join you because you guarantee that this Clan you are going to build will be one of the strongest clans in Yrniel, as strong as the Bloodheart House, right?”
Nux questioned with his signature smile on his face.
Melia, however, misunderstood that smile.
“Are you mocking my Goal?”
“Hmm?” Nux frowned.
“Do you think my Goal is impractical and naïve? A fantasy of a child who doesn’t know anything about the outside world?”
Melia questioned and Nux, he looked into Melia’s eyes and questioned back,
“Is it not?”
Melia only had one answer to that question,
“You will receive the answer to this question in the future, 100 years, if not 100 then 200, or even 1000 years, I do not care,
But you will hear an answer to this question.”
Nux didn’t say anything in return and just continued to look at Melia’s face.
Melia looked back at him for a while, and then, she sighed,
“I take it that you reject my offer.”
“Yes, that is correct.”
Nux nodded.
Melia nodded back, there were no particular changes in her expression, however, she was a little disappointed.
Well, it is not like she had not expected it, her deal was crazy and offered nothing but empty words, no sane person would take it,
It was a deal for insane people who have lost their minds and had turned blind with ambition.
“You can le-”
“Your offer lacks ambition.”
Melia was about to send Nux and his wives away, however, suddenly, Nux interrupted her.
“What did you say?”
Melia tilted her head in confusion, this was the first time she actually showed a clear expression on her face.
“The Clan you wish to create,
It lacks ambition.”
“It… lacks ambition?”
Melia blinked a few times.
“Indeed.
How about this, I and my wives plan to create a Clan when we leave the Blood Continent, a Clan that will not be one of the strongest clans in Yrniel.
We will create a Clan that will be the Strongest in Yrniel. The one that stands on the Top of the world. We will not just hold the world in our palm in just the name, we will not compete and make deals with other clans and powers, we will actually have the entire world in our Palm.
I do not want to achieve what a few people have done every 1000 years,
I want to achieve something that no one, in the history of Yrniel has ever achieved.
The Blood Continent, the Lair Of Demons, the United Continent, the Land of Dwarves, and the Valley of Dragons,
I wish to stand on top of everything.”
“Y-You… You are crazy…”
Melia stuttered.
This bastard…
He was even crazier than she was.
Making a Clan as strong as the Bloodheart House from scratch was pushing it, but his thoughts were on a completely different level.
His dream… it touched the realm of impossibility!
“So, how about this, Lady Melia?
How about you join my Clan instead?
How about you actually achieve what you want instead of just getting an empty title after putting in all that work?”
Nux questioned, this time, his eyes shined in determination, however, his mouth still had that playful smirk stuck on it.
“Saying those words is a simple task, Nux. Even a 5-year-old can talk about conquering the world.”
Melia spoke.
“But he cannot achieve it now, can he?”
“What makes you think you can achieve it?”
“That’s because I am special.”
“Oh? Aren’t you being a little too overconfident?”
“You will receive the answer to this question in the future.”
Nux repeated Melia’s words.
“…”
Melia turned silent as she glanced at Nux, who was looking into her eyes with a calm, yet a playful smile on his face.
This answer,
Melia liked it.
She could feel that this man was similar to her.
At first, she only wanted him to join her Clan, but now,
She needed this man, she had to recruit him.
Melia could feel it,
Nux has what it takes to stand next to her and achieve help her achieve her goal.
She then stood up from her chair,
She placed the Glass she was carrying on a table and then, she walked towards Nux.
“So the current situation is that both of us will be creating a Clan in the near future, and wish to recruit each other into our Clans, is that correct?”
“That seems to be the case.” Nux smiled.
“Obviously, the better Clan should be on the top and other clan,”
“The other one might as well cease to exist.”
Nux completed Melia’s sentence.
“How do we know which clan is better than the other?”
Melia questioned,
Nux, however, just smiled.
“We cannot talk about the ‘Goals’ of our Clan because in the end, no matter how determined we are to fulfill them, it is no different than empty words right now.”
“That is correct.”
Nux nodded again.
“How about we compare the competence of the two Leaders to judge which Clan has better chance to achieve its goal?”
Melia offered.
“And how are we going to do that?”
Nux questioned.
“A duel.
The two of us will spar,
The Winner of the Duel will create the Clan and the loser will join the Winner’s Clan. No
How about it?”
“Heh, funny isn’t it?
A Peak Great Sage challenging an Early Emperor.”
Nux chuckled.
“You think you would become the Greatest in the world by playing by the rules? This Cruel world will eat you up.” Melia questioned with a smile on her face.
“And you think you would become one of the Greatest in the world by always playing only when you are 100% assured of your victory? This Cruel world will eat you up.”
Nux questioned back.
