Chapter 1178 I wish you luck, Disciple.
Of course, I am sure I don\'t need to mention this, but in case you people have even the slightest doubt in your minds, let me make this clear.
Don\'t ask for my help, I am only here to enjoy the show."
Vyriana spoke with a big smile on her face.
Yes, she was definitely enjoying this.
"..."
Astaria turned silent.
"We had no choice." Suddenly, Melia spoke up.
"Hmm?" Vyriana glanced at the Vampire and frowned.
"Arcturus was the one who came to Nux, yes, he had the option to lower his head, respectfully say that he wasn\'t related to the Devil, say all of this is merely a misunderstanding, and allow Arcturus to doubt and disrespect him all he wanted before finally leaving, however...
Lady Vyriana wouldn\'t like her \'temporary student\' accepting such disrespect, would she?"
Melia looked into Vyriana\'s eyes as she questioned.
"You all would be widows if he had done something like that."
Vyriana shrugged.
No matter what, Nux was now connected to her, if he had taken so much disrespect from a mere ant, she would have personally ended him.
"..."
The women blinked in surprise, they had no clue how to react to those words. Vyriana was... too brash.
Melia, however, liked where this was going and continued, "Lady Vyriana isn\'t leaving any other option available for Nux, now is she? Don\'t you think you are being too unreasonable?"
"Vampire Girl, what are you talking about?"
"You don\'t want Nux to accept any form of disrespect and now that he has followed your orders and has gotten into a troublesome situation, you say you do not care the reason why this happened and have no intentions to help.
Is that not being unreasonable?"
Melia questioned.
But then,
"Vampire Girl, did Nux ever say that he needs my help?"
Vyriana questioned with a frown on his face.
"H-Huh?" Melia\'s expression changed.
He was standing against one of the strongest world leaders, wasn\'t it obvious that he needed help? He even went to Aurelian to seek her help.
The other women had the same questions in their mind as well, but then,
Amaya suddenly frowned,
"He did not..."
She answered.
"He had better not.
I would have killed him if he sought my help to deal with an Incomplete Being."
Vyriana snorted.
"B-But Master, he not strong enough to face Divine Stage Cultivators yet, he said it himself," Astaria spoke.
"Of course, there is no way he can go against someone who has formed his Law of Self. That would still be impossible even after he becomes a Saint."
"Then how are we supposed to tackle this situation?"
"Using allies, of course."
This time, the answer didn\'t come from Vyriana.
It came from Nux who had just appeared in front of his women with his signature smile plastered on his face.
"Hello Vyriana~" he greeted.
"You look quite relaxed for someone who is in a difficult situation," Vyriana commented.
"It is not a difficult situation at all. Well, it might be a bit complicated, considering that I won\'t be able to get a stronger Human Bloodline."
Hearing that, Vyriana observed Nux carefully and realized,
"So it did happen huh..." She commented.
"I was forced to do it.
If I hadn\'t used my Incubus Powers to their full extent, they would have recognized that it was my Clone and wouldn\'t have let their guard down.
Saving my Skyla was the priority."
Nux replied, Skyla on the other hand, lowered her head in shame. She didn\'t like how Nux was suffering because of her.
\'It was not your fault.\' Felberta, who was standing near Skyla patted her head. Skyla simply smiled weakly and nodded.
\'...\'
Felberta turned silent.
"Wait."
Suddenly, Astaria spoke up and glanced at Nux, "You said we will fight against Arcturus using allies, what allies are you talking about if not Master?" she questioned.
"Star, just think about it for a second,
If Vyriana decides to help us, how would it end?"
"With the Dragon Continent\'s destruction."
There was no doubt about it.
"That\'s correct.
It would simply be unfair to call a level 1000 boss for a fight between level 10s.
Even I am not that shameless."
Nux replied, and then suddenly, a strange shine appeared in his eyes,
"That end wouldn\'t be nearly as satisfying as what I would want.
Killing Arcturus is the last thing I want to do."
The women\'s expressions changed when they saw the look on Nux\'s face. This time, even Vyriana was taken aback by that demonic expression on Nux\'s face.
"Death is indeed the last thing I want."
Nux repeated his words.
"N-Nux?"
Evane called out, unable to see that horrifying smile on Nux\'s face.
Hearing her voice, Nux came out of her reverie and the strange expression on his face disappeared in an instant, After gently smiling at Evane, he turned towards Astaria and,
"Just treat it as a simulation.
Simulation of going after the actually strong enemies that we will be facing in the future.
Since we are playing in the \'smaller\' pond, it would be unfair to include fishes from the \'bigger\' pond in this battle. We will only seek help from fishes of the smaller pond."
"A-A simulation...?" Astaria frowned.
"In simpler words, Disciple.
Treat this as your test."
Vyriana spoke up.
"Treat it as a test of your strength and wit.
Use the entirety of Yrniel and its people as your testing ground, prove your ability, prove that you actually do have what it takes to follow your Master and aim for the, well, in your husband\'s words, the \'bigger\' pond."
\'Using Yrniel and its people as a testing ground\', these words were cruel, they demonstrated just how Vyriana actually treated Incomplete Cultivators and was indirectly forcing that vision onto them, however, "So we can ally with anyone who is not part of the Ancestral Order, which includes the Vampire King, Elven Queen, Human Emperors, Beastmen City Lords, the Demon Lords...
We can create any faction we desire to oppose the Dragon Lord, but we cannot receive your help.
This is your \'test\'."
Astaria spoke and a big smile formed on Vyriana\'s face, "I wish you luck, Disciple."
