Chapter 1704 Lyriana and Eisheth *Knock* *Knock* While Lyriana was sitting inside her room, she suddenly heard a knock. Frowning, she turned towards the door, extended her senses to see who it was and as if she already sensed what she was doing, the woman outside questioned with a light smile, "Mind if I come in?" She didn't know why she was here, honestly, if it was before, she would be glad that someone else was in the same situation as her, but imagine her surprise when she realized that Eisheth Lust had become Eisheth Leander as well. She was one of 'them'. And after what happened in the Cosmocraft, Lyriana, who realized the difference between a Leander and other women around him, decided to maintain some distance from them. No, she wasn't disappointed because of what happened. It was something obvious. It made complete sense that he would prioritize his wives first, not to mention that right now, she was no different than a liability. Sure, she was their 'party member', but when it came down to it, she was different from them. Therefore, Lyriana didn't wish to get too attached. She was here to get stronger with Nux's help and later help him out in his journey to return the favour. It was a pure transaction, and she would keep it that way. However, since the Succubus Queen was already was, she couldn't exactly send her away. "Come in," Lyriana answered. The woman outside opened the door and walked in. "It has been a while." She greeted. "What is it?" Lyriana questioned. "Hmm? Nothing, I was just bored." The Succubus Queen replied. Lyriana frowned. She and Eisheth weren't exactly close to each other, sure, they were acquainted, but for the woman to come here because she was 'bored', Lyriana didn't believe in. Unable to think of a reason why she would be here, Lyriana continued to stare at the woman in front of her. Eisheth didn't mind and walked towards her, sitting on the bed as she made herself comfortable. There was a silence in the room for a while, Lyriana, who couldn't take it anymore, narrowed her eyes. "If you are going to sit silent, you could have done so inside your room." "Didn't I say it just now? I came here because I was bored, I needed company." "I don't think I am that good of a company." "It is okay, you would do just fine." Eisheth shrugged. "There are so many women here, even your daughter is here, so why are you bothering me." "Not everyone, some have left since that woman is back," Eisheth replied. "Who is back?" Lyriana frowned. "Riona." "Riona?" Of course, Lyriana knew who the woman was. She was one of Nux's wives and Amaya's mother. "What do you mean she is bac-" Suddenly, the woman paused as she realized something, all this while, she hadn't seen a few of Nux's wives, two of them to be more precise. Lane and Riona. She had spent a few years in ExceedoGenesis, living together with all the women, however, in all those years, she never once saw any of them. Even some women like Amaya, Felberta, Evane and Vyriana disappeared somewhere from time to time, especially Amaya, in all those years, she had barely seen Amaya like 10 times. With a frown on her face, Lyriana questioned, "Had she gone somewhere? Where did she come back from?" "I do not know the exact details but from what I know, she was hurt when Nux and all the girls left Yrniel previously and has been unconscious since then." "What…" Lyriana widened her eyes in shock. The last time Nux and the women left Yrniel… Lyriana knew that it happened more than 100 years ago, it was after Nux came to her with his offer. Wait… If Riona was unconscious since then… "She was unconscious for 100 years!?" Lyriana exclaimed. "Mhm." "How? What happened?" Lyriana questioned. She had been with the women when they were sparing with each other, they had seen just how monstrous all of them were, pretty much any one of them was now strong enough to take over all of Yrniel unless the Order was involved. For one of those women to be hurt to the point that she was unconscious for 100 years… and that was when they had Healers from the Order available to help them anytime they wanted, Healers known to be able to Heal anyone back to full health if they are not dead… Just what could possibly hurt one of them? "As I said, I do not know the details, I just know she was hurt and passed out because her body couldn't take the impact and needed time to Heal." Eisheth replied. She remembered talking about it with her daughter, Aisha however, avoided most of her questions. She honestly felt quite left out since she was the only one who didn't know the details, but for now, she didn't complain. She just wanted everyone to be fine. "What about Lane? I haven't seen her in a while either. Where is she?" Lyriana questioned. Most of the time, she wouldn't notice Lane's absence since the woman usually stayed in Nux's shadow most of the time, but to not see her once in 100 years… especially after knowing about Riona, Lyriana had to question. "She is inside Nux's shadow." Eisheth replied with a grim look on her face. Unlike Riona's, Lane's story she knew to a certain extent. "For 100 years…?" Lyriana frowned. "She cannot leave." Eisheth replied. "What…?" "She is being targeted, the moment she leaves Nux's Shadow, the enemy will be able to sense her." "She cannot leave because the enemy…?" Lyriana couldn't believe it. If Nux and others were being like this, it meant the enemy was strong… Strong enough to even suppress a monster like Nux. 'Nux, he…' Lyriana's body trembled. She had spent quite a lot of time together with Nux, she knew what sort of man she was. He challenged the Dragon Lord because he harmed his wife… That man was outright crazy for his woman. And right now… When one of his wives was hurt, the other was living in hiding… That man… wasn't able to do anything… 'And this has been going on for more than 100 years…'
