Chapter 1395
1395 The Mother of all Humans dropps a Bomb.
"Now return and continue your training, I will constantly monitor your progress, do not disappoint me, Melia Leander."
Aeliana spoke in a strict, quite different from the usual playful attitude she had around Nux and his wives. However, if anyone from the Ancestral Order saw her, they would know that such an attitude was completely normal. After all, unlike Nux and his wives, where Aeliana believed that the group wasn't her responsibility and had given control to her friend, the Ancestral Order was different.
That was the plan where her true personality was shown.
An Authoritative, Decisive, Disciplined, Assertive, Confident, and Diligent woman. A woman with an aura so strong that sometimes, even the Progenitors are amused seeing the monster they had collectively created.
"I will not disappoint you."
Melia replied, her eyes shining with intense conviction. Then, after bowing her head to show respect to her Master, she turned around, created a portal and walked back into her room. The rest of the returned as well, this time, however, Astaria and others who had formed their Laws didn't return to Waranal to cultivate.
All the women were still waiting for Nux to return.
They wanted to know why the Human Progenitor meant when she said that she wanted their husband to stop training and spend the next two years together with them. As much as they liked the idea, they understood how 'risky' it was. It placed Nux in grave danger and that was something none of his wives would allow.
No matter how appealing the darn idea was!
They still wanted Nux to train, preferably, together with them.
The women were also curious about what the Progenitor wanted to talk to Nux about. They could vividly remember the expression the woman had when she mentioned it to Nux. One didn't need to be a genius or extremely good at observing to know that it was something important and meant a lot to the Progenitor.
After all, a woman who was as old as the world lost control over her 'poker face' and showed emotions, it was a rare occurrence.
They couldn't just leave without knowing what was happening, especially since it involved Nux. Melia, obviously, was thinking along the same lines as the rest of the sisters.
Yes, she became Aeliana's student, she wanted to quickly learn the techniques the woman had given her, she wanted to make progress, she wanted to implement Aeliana's teaching, she wanted to impress her Master, exceed her expectations, and get stronger, however, before all that, she wanted to make sure her Nux was alright.
That was the priority that would never change, no matter how desperate she
was.
After all, with all said and done, in the end, she was a fool who was captured by the demon named Nux Leander and had her, body and soul taken away by him.
A small smile appeared on Melia's face as she walked into her room and jumped on the bed, grabbing the pillow that was covered with Nux's scent and taking a big whiff, her body trembled and a specific part of her body got much more excited than it should.
On the other side, when Melia left, the only two women left in the large hall of ExceedoGenesis were Melia and her friend Vyriana.
A friend who was looking at the Vampire with her golden eyes shining with intense curiosity.
"I didn't think you would accept a disciple. She is the first, no?"
"I got more involved than I should have, huh..." Aeliana commented with an unreadable expression on her face.
"No."
Vyriana, however, shook her head.
"You are just lowering your walls around that child," Vyriana spoke, observing Aeliana's red eyes, ready to observe even the slightest change.
And because of that, she didn't miss a slight flicker that lasted only for a few milliseconds.
"You feel connected to her, don't you?" Suddenly, Vyriana said the words that took Aeliana by surprise.
"Both of you have many people taking care of her, you had all the Progenitors looking after you ever since you were a child, you may act all grown up but at the end of the day, you know that if you face problems you are currently unable to face, you can always revert back to the child who runs towards the people who love her and request for their help, even the Progenitors who act the most distant, would go to surprising lengths to help you.
That woman has her family and now the sisters, her family was already crazy about her, as for her sisters... well, we already saw the minor demonstration today, didn't we? They might seem like they are fighting each other most of the time, but at the end of the day, they are still a family, a family with a bond so strong that it would make even the clans who are closest to their family members jealous of what they have.
Not to mention that monster, the central point of the family, the crazy man who could go to any lengths when his wives are involved.
Both you and Melia are loved,
However,"
Vyriana stared at the Vampire and,
"At the same time, both of you are extremely lonely."
Aeliana's poker face broke when she heard those words and stared at Vyriana in surprise, the Dragon, however, didn't stop, she just continued to stare at her friend and, "You are surrounded by Progenitors who love you, however, deep in your heart, you still wish to meet your father. You want to be pampered by him, you want to feel what it is like to feel the embrace of your father, and because of that, you feel singled out. You feel different from the rest of the people around
you.
Something, in some twisted manner, you saw yourself in that child, who was jealous of her sisters, who had all formed their Laws or were very close to doing it. You sensed how, despite being loved by everyone around her, that girl felt distant and because of that, You lowered your guard around her and accepted
her."
"I did that so I can get Nux to owe me a favour in the future."
Aeliana spoke with a determined look on her face.
Vyriana however, just laughed at those words in disdain,
"Stop lying to yourself, Aeliana Ruinous,
Since when do you, out of all people, feel the need to make people owe you a
favour?"
"Nux is not nor-"
"As if that would matter." The dragon snorted.
Vyriana couldn't be fooled. After all, she had known this woman for a long time
now. Yes, the woman had created walls around her, not letting anyone enter those walls, even the Progenitors who loved her dearly, but despite that, Vyriana could confidently say that she knew her friend like the back of her hand.
"Stop with this ridiculousness.
What you are doing is not wrong.
Who knows? In future, you will look back and be glad that you made this
decision."
Vyriana spoke with a smile, then, as if she didn't want to say anything any further,
the woman activated an Artifact and disappeared, leaving the Pseudo Leader of the Ancestral Order alone, with different emotions troubling her usually calm
heart.
"This... is quite a magnificent site," Nux commented as he looked around the island with rich Flora, the air around the area was so pure and comfortable that Nux felt like closing his eyes and sleeping on the well-trimmed grass. The peacefully blowing wind didn't help much in resisting this urge either.
"It is my personal dimension, a place only I and the people I allow can enter," Faustina answered.
Nux turned towards his mother. He may not be as good as Amaya when it came
to these matters, however, he wasn't a fool. After all, he always learned as he observed his wife, even asking why she came to certain conclusions when he didn't understand her thought process.
He could tell why the woman brought him here.
"You don't want anyone to know what you are about to say to me, huh?" He
commented.
"Yes, I would prefer if you do not disclose anything to your wives either."
Hearing those words, Nux narrowed his eyes,
"You know I won't do that, Mother."
After all, there he rarely kept secrets from his wives, unless it was a surprise for
them, of course.
"It is something very important to me, Nux," Faustina spoke.
It wasn't an order, it was a request.
A request from a million-year-old being who could probably destroy the entirety of
Yrniel with a snap of her fingers.
Nux didn't know how to react in such an absurd situation. He stared at her
mother, and seeing her eyes flickering with emotions, he calmed his mind and, "I
will keep it a secret."
He agreed.
After all, just like the woman, he had started trusting his mother as well.
He knew that she wouldn't put him or his wives in danger, she had no reason to
do it.
Not to mention that if the woman wanted to do any harm, none of them had the strength to stop her.
Faustina smiled as she saw her son trusting her, it was an unusual feeling, however, she didn't delve into it, rather, she decided to drop a bomb, "The Progenitors of Yrniel, including me, have not formed their Laws."
