Just what in the hell are these women...

"Fuck..."

Nux cursed, realizing the problem. It wasn't just him, his wives, Vyriana and even Faustina didn't like this development, especially Faustina, who, out of everyone here, knew just how absurdly unreasonable Lilith's Illusions were.

Although a Law wouldn't have a direct influence on the Illusion since Nux would still be entering the Illusion anyway, just having comprehended a Law would give Nux one of the strongest ways mental barriers to protect his mind.

After all, a Law was nothing more than understanding oneself and one's impact on the universe, a being who understood it wouldn't lose his mind very easily.

Yes, a Law was a form of protection Faustina wanted her son to have before he entered Lilith's Illusion.

And Nux's wives, especially the ones who have formed their Law and understood just how much it changed them, were the same.

"Nux."

Suddenly, Astaria called out.

Nux glanced at his wife, and with her eyes shining with a determined look, the woman looked at him and, "Abandon the bet."

Astaria spoke and silence fell all over the place.

"You know I cannot do that," Nux spoke as he narrowed his eyes.

He had given his word to the Progenitor.

Not to mention...

Nux turned his head towards Aisha and understanding what he was thinking, the succubus's purple eyes shined in defiance, "I do not need that woman's blood."

"Exactly." Astaria nodded, looking into Nux's eyes, she continued,

"We are strong, Nux.

We do not need external help to grow stronger. There is no need to take such a foolish risk, we have nothing to gain here."

"Don't be foolish, Astaria."

This time, the one who spoke wasn't Nux, but Allura.

The succubus stepped forward and raised her hand, pink energy gathered on top of her hand as she then glanced at the rest, "How did you think I gained my Bloodline? The Woman gave it to me for a reason. She wanted to make sure that Nux wouldn't back down." The Succubus spoke and she wasn't done here.

She turned towards a Dragon and,

"Don't forget, this is not the first time we have come to this conclusion."

"..." Vyriana had a complicated look on her face. She couldn't say anything even if she wanted to.

She had already extended the date of the bet by 10 years thinking it would be enough.

And she knew perfectly well that it was the extent of the Mother of all Succubi's patience. She wouldn't allow any more excuses. After all, she had been patient for a long time now. It wouldn't be a surprise if the woman decided to use force now.

Something the woman was very much capable of.

Vyriana gritted her teeth as she momentarily glanced at Faustina, the only woman who could help them escape such a situation.

lightsΝοvεl ƈοm Yes, it wounded her pride to go back on her words, however, the more she thought about Nux facing a Progenitor without having formed his Law, the more her instincts screamed, warning her of danger. Something she didn't like one bit.

If it was something related to her, she would have gladly jumped in, the thought of seeking help wouldn't even have crossed her mind.

As a warrior, the woman would face all the challenges herself, something she believed every being with even a tinge of pride should do... however, she didn't know when, in her mind, an exception to this rule was born.

Nux...

She didn't want him to face anything recklessly. Not because the man was weak, far from it, as someone who trained the man and watched his progress, she knew just what sort of monstrous existence the man was, What she didn't want...Was to lose this man...

She was afraid.

Yes, Vyriana Origin was afraid.

She was afraid of losing Nux, a fear so great that it even surpassed her pride, a Path she created for her, the core of her existence.

Yes, the Dragon was desperate and despite hating every second of it, she sought Faustina's help.

Faustina, who glanced at the Dragon's eyes, felt complicated, however, before she could say anything, "Vyriana."

Nux called out.

And his expression was anything but good.

"I hate that face." The man spoke, looking at the Dragon with an expression the Dragon had never seen before on his face.

Vyriana shuddered.

Nux wanted to continue, however,

"Nux, entering the illusion is pointless."

This time, Amaya spoke up.

"I will be fin-" Nux wanted to argue, but,

"We have already discussed this once, Nux. There is no point in continuing this any further." Amaya cut him off.

"Yes, Lady Faustina said that she would erase your memories of the illusion if something went wrong, but..."

Amaya failed to hold her emotions as her voice cracked,

"W-What I worry about is the 10,000 years you would spend inside the Illusion.

,000 years is a long time Nux..."lightsnovel

Amaya spoke, looking into Nux's eyes.

"Especially when none of us would be there with you.

The very Core of this Illusion goes against the Goal you, the Goal we have."

"..."

"..."

Silence fell over the place.

Living a long, worry-free life together with my wives.

Nux's goal wasn't unknown. He and his wives worked towards the same goal from the very start. That was something that would never change.

And spending 10,000 years without his wives... even if it was just an illusion, it was something that Nux's entire existence would feel repulsed by.

Amaya knew that the possible bad effects it would have on Nux could be removed by Faustina once she erased his memory.

However...

What Nux was entering an illusion. An illusion wasn't capable of hurting him physically. Any 'possible bad effects' it would have on Nux would be the mental effects and... Amaya knew that it was something that only happens when a being faces a trauma.

So despite knowing that the 'bad effects' would be dealt with, understanding that the chances of Nux facing events traumatic enough to mess with his mind for 10,000 years made her shudder in horror.

She didn't want her Nux to go through something like this.This wasn't just her worry, it was something that all her sisters, who could think this far were worried about.

And...

"Not to mention that I highly doubt Lady Lilith would let Lady Faustina erase your memories that easily."

Amaya spoke up and in an instant, all the women turned towards her with dangerous glints showing in their eyes.

"Think about it, do you think she would just let someone 'erase' the results she achieved after such a long wait so easily?"

"..."

Faustina narrowed her eyes. The rest of the women were silent as well.

"Tsk, it all happened because you received that bitch's bloodline." Suddenly, Edda snorted as she glanced at Allura.

"You wouldn't have died if you were satisfied with a Saint Level Blood."

The words were spoken, words that Allura didn't like one bit and her eyes shined, "Sorry for trying to be helpful, I can't be satisfied with just sitting back and thinking about perverted things."

Edda tilted her head as she glanced at the woman in front of her, normally, she would have just taken it as a joke, however, maybe it was because of their worry for Nux, the women currently weren't in their right minds, "Says the one whose Law only affects the circle she is in, I wonder who is more useless." Edda snorted.

"I assure you that I am still more useful than a woman who specializes in nothing,"

"Really? Please enlighten me, Lady Allura, what does the previous 'bored concubine' specialize in, knowing every foolish rumour flying around the castle?"

"You tw-" Thyra wanted to speak, but suddenly,

"Do not interrupt, Thyra. You do not want to get involved in this." Allura spoke, glaring at Thyra.

Thyra narrowed her eyes, "What if I insist?"

"Of course, I would expect nothing from a formal enemy assassin who came to kil-"

"Do you wish to die?" Thyra spoke, her blue eyes shining intensely as she glared at the woman in front of her.

"What? Are you showing your true face now?" Allura spoke.

"Or maybe I just want to eliminate the reason behind our worries, after all, Edda isn't wrong, everything happened because you accepted the woman's bloodline."

Thyra spat but before she could continue, Ember stepped forward in front of Allura, defending the woman.

"Thyra, back away."

Ember spoke.

"You think you can stop me?"

Thyra tilted her head.

"I very much can." Ember wasn't willing to back down either.

"Rich coming from a woman who needs an army to show her strength." Thyra snorted.

"For you, I, alone, am enough," Ember spoke, taking out her sword and as if that action was the trigger, All hell broke loose as Thyra, Allura, Edda, and Ember took out their weapons, and seeing them, the rest of the wives followed, some wanting to defend, some wanting to participate, after all, everyone was frustrated, The number of interactions they had with Nux were being limited, they were unable to spend enough time with the man they loved, and as if fate was playing a cruel game with them, the man they loved was going to face something that might leave him with mental traumas, all these factors combined with how some of them lost control over themselves, and all of this influenced others as well, especially the ones who were in Waranal, 'unsatisfied' for decades.

"You alone are enough huh, let's see how tru-" Thyra spoke, wanted to rush towards the Dragon and start everything, But suddenly,

[Everyone! What are you doing!? Back off!]

Skyla shouted out loud, a strange power releasing from her body as the woman broke through to Saint stage.

"..."

"..."

Silence fell all over the place and Faustina, Vyriana and Aeliana couldn't believe what they were seeing, "That woman...

She formed her law..."

Vyriana stated the obvious.

"Just what in the hell are these women..."
