Chapter 1388 He is that strong. 1388 He is that strong. "It was not a suggestion. It was an order. Summon back all your subordinates and seal Yrniel." Faustina spoke in a tone that left no space for defiance. The pressure coming out of her body was fierce and heavy, the pressure wasn't specifically targeting anyone, however, coming from a Progenitor, even Vyriana wasn't immune to it and felt like she would fall any moment. The only reason she didn't was because her pride didn't allow her to. She couldn't fall, not when she wasn't even targeted. Her warrior's pride didn't allow her to bear such disrespect. Aeliana, looking into the Progenitor's eyes froze for a moment, her red eyes stared right into Faustina's blue eyes, unlike what many would expect, there were no traces of fear in her eyes, she seemed like she was thinking something and in the end, "I understand. I should have thought this through." The Vampire spoke. The moment she said those words, the pressure disappeared as if it didn't exist. It was only then that Nux and his wives were able to breathe properly. The group looked at Faustina and gulped. This was the first time they saw the woman act like that and maybe because of Faustina's easygoing nature, they didn't think the woman was capable of doing something like that. A stupid thought considering that the woman was a Progenitor, one of the monstrous beings who have existed for who knows how long. Of course, Nux couldn't be blamed either. He had spent nearly 800 years, that is majority of his life with just this woman silently observing him with a light smile on her face and always guiding him in an easygoing manner. Feeling a pressure that even forced the Pseudo Leader of the Ancestral Order to back down emitting from the woman took him back. "Mother..." In the end, Nux couldn't contain his curiosity and spoke out loud. Faustina turned towards her son and, "What happened...? I have never seen you react like that. Does a War between two High-Level worlds require such a huge action from our side? Isn't Lady Aeliana's decision correct...? Forgive me if I am being ignorant but... isn't learning about what is happening something important? It is not like we are trying to actively interfere." Hearing that question, Faustina momentarily glared at Aeliana, causing the woman to lower her gaze as if she knew she had messed up. "Haah..." Faustina sighed as she felt her headache after a long long time. Then, she just ignored Aeliana for a while and turned back to her son, "Has Vyriana told you about how different world exists in the universe and how are these worlds ranked?" "She has given me rough details." Nux nodded, Amaya however, lifted her hand and, "I would like Lady Faustina to summarize it." It wasn't that Nux didn't share what Vyriana told him, Amaya simply wanted to understand Faustina's perspective because this time, even she didn't understand why the woman would react like this. No matter how she thought about it, by looking at things from her own perspective, even if she hadn't met Nux and learned about the War between Solid Earth Kingdom and the Woods Dynasty in her 'weakened' or 'cursed' state, she would have done everything in her power to learn more about the situation. So in a similar situation, Aeliana's action was indeed correct and something she would have done if she was in her stead. After all, as a previous Leader of an Information Chamber, she knew just how important Information can be in unpredictable situations. The Progenitor glanced at the black-haired woman for a while, then, she continued, "In the universe, all the worlds are divided into 5 Levels. Lowest Level. Low Level. Medium Level. High Level. And Supreme Level." Faustina then turned towards her son and, "Two High-Level Worlds are against each other, Nux. Netizens from High-Level worlds cannot be underestimated, even if we sent our best men with the strongest concealment and spying techniques, we cannot assure that our spies won't be captured. The last thing we, as a Low-Level World, want the attention of two High-Level worlds." "Aren't they at War with each other? Wouldn't they rather focus on each other?" Nux questioned. "How do you think two Divines fighting each other would react if they sense an Emperor is keeping an eye on them? What do you think they would do if they thought that the Emperor was waiting for them to be weakened after fighting each other and taking advantage of the situation?" Faustina questioned and in an instant, the answer came to Nux's mind. "One of them would kill the Emperor and since it would be an easy task, his own battle wouldn't be affected. It would be like squatting away an annoying bug." "Exactly." Faustina nodded. "One of them, if not both, would then send a small 'party' to deal with our world. The universe is vast, there are numerous worlds all over the universe, all these worlds are divided into 5 broad levels, and the difference between these levels is not small, Nux. And those two words are two levels higher than us. Gaining their attention is foolish." Faustina explained and a solemn look appeared on Nux's face, "Are you telling me that those worlds are strong enough to destroy Yrniel by sending just a small party?" He couldn't believe that. After all, monsters like his mother resided in Yrniel. To his relief, however, Faustina shook her head. "If it was any other low-level world, then yes, they could do that, but we have Azriel." Aeliana's body trembled when she heard that name. Nux narrowed his eyes as he glanced at his mother, A wry smile appeared on Faustina's face as she glanced at her son and continued, "When I say that man is a monster, I am not exaggerating anything. That man alone is capable of destroying any party the two worlds send and he would probably go back to sleep after doing that as if nothing happened." "..." "..." "..." Silence fell all over the place. 'That bastard really likes his sleep huh...' Nux couldn't help but think inwardly. Of course, there were many questions in his head, however, he quickly lost his lead as his wife took over, "So you fear that things would get worse once their 'party' is destroyed by Lord Azriel, correct?" Amaya spoke. "Mhm." Faustina nodded. The two worlds might not take them seriously at first, after all, what Divine Stage Cultivator would take an Emperor seriously? But... what if the said Emperor somehow blocked their attack? Even if the attack wasn't strong in their eyes, it wasn't something an Emperor should be able to block, but what if the two Divines realized that there existed an Emperor who could do that? The Emperor, who they merely treated as a big would then have all their attention. And that attention, would never be good for the Emperor. That is why Faustina wanted to avoid such a fate no matter what. Everyone could now understand the Progenitor's reasoning. Amaya, however, had a question almost everyone else missed, "Does this mean the Lord Azriel has the power to defeat a 'party' that is strong enough to annihilate a Low-Level World alone? If that is the case, then how are we only considered a Low-Level World? What is the extent of Lord Azriel's true powers? If he can kill such a party alone and go back to sleep as if nothing happened, I am pretty sure he is stronger than whatever I have imagined in my head." Amaya asked a bunch of questions, questions Faustina wanted to avoid, however, since even Nux was looking at her with that curious gaze, in the end, she decided to stop thinking about it and gave in. Considering what she is going to do anyway, this couldn't be considered a big deal. "Yes, as I said, he is a monster, he is strong enough to defeat that party. The reason we are considered a Low-Level world is because we do not include him when we assess our strength, only the other Progenitors and Ancestral Order are included. After all, we do not want him to be related to our issues anymore. He has already done more than enough. As to what is the extent of his true powers..." Faustina momentarily paused. She could see how Nux, his wives and Vyriana were focusing on her. Not only them, but even the man's daughter, Aeliana, was looking at her with her eyes red eyes shining intensely. Seeing that, Faustina couldn't help but smile wryly, 'You have really become a secret, haven't you, my friend...' She muttered in her head, remembering the man and the bright look he had when he first held Aeliana in his arms, 'My daughter is back...' The man spoke with his moist eyes, the emotions in his voice were so strong that even Faustina was taken aback, but that was just how the man was. He truly loved his daughter with all his heart. 'You have left the same daughter in the dark, my friend. I really wish you come back, your daughter needs you. She may have inherited your talent, but... her heart is weak.' Faustina spoke as she glanced at Aeliana's state. Then, she stopped thinking about everything and decided to answer, "That man is probably strong enough to annihilate those two worlds even if come at him with their full strength. Let alone the High-Level Worlds, even if it is the four Supreme Level worlds... I cannot imagine that monster losing. He is that strong."
