Chapter 1266 Stay away from my son. 1266 Stay away from my son. "Hello~ Can I come in? Thank you~" A jovial voice was heard as a purple-haired woman walked into Faustina's room with a big smile on her face. "Why are you here?" Faustina questioned with a slight frown on her face. She had been awake for the last few weeks so for the next few years, she planned to sleep and do nothing, so right now, she didn't appreciate guests barging into her house, especially this woman. "Oh come on, you can't treat your good friend like this, can you?" "Lilith, why are you acting like this?" Faustina questioned as she narrowed her eyes. Lilith always used this playful tone whenever she talked, for some reason, however, today Faustina could feel that something was wrong. Lilith didn't come here just to meet up, she had a different goal in her mind. And Faustina had an idea what it was. "What are you looking for?" She questioned when she noticed Lilith looking around with a curious look on her face. "Is he not here with you? That's strange, did you send him somewhere to train him?" Lilith questioned. Faustina, of course, knew who the Succubus Progenitor was talking about. "He didn't come here with us. He is still in Yrniel." She replied. "What?" Lilith was shocked. She knew that Faustina and Caesar had gone to Yrniel to bring Nux with them, there was no reason for any cultivator to reject their offer. Something like that simply wouldn't make sense. Lilith couldn't understand and frowned in confusion, "Why?" She questioned. "He said he had something to do in Yrniel." "What's the point? Didn't you tell him that he will only be wasting his time there?" "Well, I figured that instead of forcing him, I could let him do whatever he wants. It is not like we are bound by any sort of time restraint. I won't mind if he spends a few years in Yrniel and come here once he's done with whatever he wishes to achieve. Don't forget, Vyriana is there with him as well. With how attached she seemed, I doubt she would let him walk on the wrong path. At the very least, she would tell him the basics and how to maximize his potential from that point." Faustina seemed calm. Lilith, however, wasn't the same, "You know we cannot do that, correct?" She questioned. "What?" "Vyriana is still a child and that boy is one of the most monstrous man I have ever seen in my life, his potential is only second to Azriel! He even made the Will of Yrniel tremble despite Azriel's presence! You understand what that means correct!? How can you leave someone like him to Vyriana!?" Lilith was clearly worried, or that was what she was the impression she was giving. Faustina however, wasn't someone who would fall for such tricks so easily. As someone who knew this woman since the origin of the world, Faustina knew exactly what Lilith was thinking. "Lilith." She called out. "Vyriana knows more about the 'correct path' than both of us combined. Don't act like he is in irresponsible child. Don't forget, that Dragon has the potential to grow and defeat all of us. It is only a matter of time before she receives Saphira's Blood. Once that happens, she will be unstoppable. That girl isn't called the Strongest Divine Stage Cultivator without any reason. Also, don't think I don't know what you are planning. My son has already made it clear that he does not want you, so stay away from him." Faustina spoke, her narrows eyes seemed threatening. Lilith was taken aback when she saw those eyes, her attention, however, was on something entirely different, "Your son...?" "That is correct. I took Nux in as my son." Faustina revealed. "Haah? What in the hell are you planning?" Lilith was confused. "Is this your way of getting close to him and slowly breaking the barriers?" She guessed and a few moments later, Lilith started thinking. "It is not exactly a bad plan. He is still a child, if you spend 1000 something years as his mother, there might be a chance that he gives into his natural instincts and you will get what you want. Faus, I didn't know you could come up with something like this. I underestimated you. You are looking forward to this even more than I am, aren't you?" Lilith spoke with a smile on her face. She was definitely impressed but suddenly, "I am not planning anything like that." Faustina spoke up. "He chose me as his mother, I don't plan on breaking his trust." Hearing her words, Lilith's frown just deepened, "What are you even talking about? Breaking his trust? You sound like I am telling you to hurt him? You know it is not harmful, correct? On the contrary, he would enjoy the experience. If you don't have that confidence in you, let me take your place." "He is different, Lilith," Faustina spoke. "You act like you know him well." Lilith chuckled. "He is my son, how could a mother not know her son's character?" Faustina questioned back. Lilith, on the other hand, found this annoying. "So you plan on keeping a 'pure' relationship with him?" "Exactly, I only wish to be a mother he can depend upon," Faustina replied. Lilith, however, just snorted. "A mother eh? Remind me, Faustina, which one of your previous 'sons' have you not mated with? Let's not even talk about the time when we were required to populate Yrniel, did you forget what happened 50,000 years ago when you were bored? Do you want me to help you remember it?" Faustina's expression changed, "Lilith. I don't need you to remind me anything. I was merely trying to fill in the void we all feel and I am doing the same thing right now. This time, I am simply changing the method to do it. Maybe it is time I form a real relation, using Yrniel's common standards." "They are mortal standards, Faus. We are immortals." "It wouldn't hurt to try, would it?" "It will! It will hurt me! You are practically telling me to stay away from him!" Lilith was frustrated. "Woman, why are you so desperate!? Just stay away from him. If you can't just create his clone and do it with it or something! How is that so hard?" "How is that same!?" "You..." 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞 Faustina was annoyed. "Me what? Aren't you being too selfish? To 'fill in the void', you are trying to push me away! You know it has been 1000s of years since I have found someone interesting enough and now you are telling me to back away!?" In the end, Faustina turned silent, then, after taking deep breaths, she looked into Lilith's eyes and, "There is no point in shouting at each other, we should compromise." "What do you suggest?" Lilith questioned. "I have no right to direct my son's life anyways, he will make his own decisions, so if you can convince him, you can do whatever you want. How about it?" Faustina suggested and a big smile appeared on Lilith's face, "That's it? Don-" "Of course, you are not allowed to use your powers." "What? Why!?" Lilith frowned. "What? Not confident enough in your charm?" Faustina questioned with a playful smile on her face. "Don't push it, Faus." Lilith narrowed her eyes. How could the Succubus Progenitor take that lying down? "Alright." She agreed. "I won't use my powers." Faustina smiled as well, "I wish you luck." "I do not need luck, woman. Just you wait, I will take you son away from you right under your eyes." Lilith spoke and Faustina just shook her head. "Anyways, have a seat." "Tsk, don't bother. I know you just want me to go." Lilith snorted before she turned around. "You act like you actually wish to stay here." Faustina smiled. "Well, I would rather not see your face. I have seen it so much that I am sick of it." "What a coincidence, I feel the same." The two women chuckled before Lilith disappeared. Once she did, Faustina turned around and, "Did we disturb your sleep?" she questioned. "You are planning to take this mother role seriously huh?" Caesar questioned. "I can sense your jealousy." "It makes no sense. Why would he call you mother but won't call me father? What did I do?" "He said he don't form relationships with men." Faustina chuckled. Caesar laughed as well, "Maybe he is not that similar to him." He commented. "Of course, I can't imagine Azriel saying anything like that. Now that I think about, the two are nothing alike." "Other than their monstrous potential, of course," Caesar commented. "You are comparing him with Azriel huh... That's quite a high evaluation." "Catkin, Shadow Demon, Incubus, Vampire, and Human, that man uses abilities of all these races, not to mention those myriads of other abilities he has, and all these abilities blend together perfectly. Don't forget, that man hasn't even formed his Path yet. I don't believe that he would surpass Azriel, but... He would be a freak standing right after him."
