Chapter 1397 We do not have to do this. 1397 We do not have to do this. "You were unable to form your Law and although you were trying to hide it, you were still too young to hide things from a million-year-old monster. You were worried. You were scared of the uncertain future. So as a mother, I decided to reveal the truth and help you." "Mother..." Nux didn't know how to react. This woman... "Stop thinking nonsense." Suddenly, Faustina spoke up, once again, bringing Nux out of his thoughts. Then, a serious look appeared on her face as she continued, "I will help you gain Yrniel's blessing." She spoke. "Wh-" Nux wanted to say something, but he was soon interrupted. "However, we need to be as secretive as possible. The other Progenitors cannot know that you know this secret or they will kill you without question. To avoid that scenario, we will use Lilith's Illusion. This is why I told you to stop training for the next 2 years. You have been training continuously for 800 years now, Nux and, I know you have noticed it as well, but your mental health is deteriorating the more you continue. Lilith's Illusion will not be simple, child. The strongest power you would need to resist her Illusions and come out sane is your Mental Power. Therefore, rather than training in uncertainty, and worrying whether you would be able to form your Law or not, focus on your mental health. You have a gift that many others do not, Nux Leander. And that gift is your wives. I notice how your deteriorating mental health improves once you return after spending time with your wives. Therefore, I want you to spend the next two years with your wives. Not in Waranal or any other dimensions where time flows differently, but in Yrniel. Don't just stay in a single room doing your... nightly activities, boy. Take your women out, there are still many interesting places you haven't explored in Yrniel, explore them together with your wives. Not everything is about strength, relax your mind, stay with people you love, strengthen your feelings, etch them in your heart, so that once you enter the illusion, you do not lose your mind." Faustina stared at her son and, "I have prepared everything for you, Nux. You will enter the Illusion without forming your Law, you will spend 10,000 years in Yrniel. Lilith may be the creator of that Illusion, however, even she wouldn't be able to peak into the Illusion and see what you are doing. Once you are out of the Illusion, I will help you get in contact with the Will of Yrniel, seeing your potential, I do not doubt that Yrniel will give its blessing to you, once that happens, you can break through the Divine Stage without worrying. The other Progenitors would be able to sense Yrniel's blessing from you, this time however, they wouldn't be so aggressive since they would realize that you are someone who is blessed by Yrniel. They will ask you about how you gained Yrniel's blessing and you will drop all the blame on Lilith's Illusion. Say whatever you want, Yrniel was attacked by enemies, Azriel didn't wake up and you saw the Will of Yrniel that blessed you and you got stronger. Make up any story and since no one can verify your words, they would have no choice but to believe you. After all, you wouldn't know about the existence of the Will of Yrniel and its blessing otherwise." A crafty smile appeared on Faustina's face as she said those words, then, a serious look appeared on her face and, "The only thing you need to focus on is not losing your mind inside Lilith's Illusion because if that happens and I will be forced to remove your memories, the plan will fail. Do not lose yourself, is that clear?" Faustina warned and Nux... He couldn't help but stare at the woman in front of him with absolute shock on his face. This... This woman... "Mother... you are betraying all the Progenitors... If they found out about this..." Nux didn't even want to think about the consequences of his mother's actions. He didn't even care about surviving in Lilith's Illusion; his mind was solely consumed by his concern for his mother. His entire being shuddered thinking about Faustina's fate if other Progenitors found out what she was doing and knowing that all of this happened because the woman decided to help him... He felt an excruciating pain in his heart. In his mind, he didn't want to imagine his... mother being attacked by all the Progenitors because of her actions. He... he didn't know what he would do if something like that happened... Right now, Faustina's importance in his heart was as high as his wives'. After all... this woman was his Mother. A Mother, who despite not giving birth to him, was ready to risk her life for his sake. A mother he never had, even in his previous life. And right now, more than ever, Nux didn't wish to lose his mother. "Don't think too much, Do you think your Mother is weak?" Faustina, who could see through her son's thoughts easily was quick to speak up. "Are you... strong enough to fight all the Progenitors alone...?" Nux questioned back. "..." Faustina turned silent. "What about the Vampire Progenitors, what would you do if he learns about this?" "...he won't." Faustina could only come up with this answer. After all, even in her wildest dreams, defeating Azriel was simply impossible. Soon, however, Faustina shook her head and, "No one will find out, stop worrying. We simply need to be careful till you enter the Illusion. Once you meet the Yrniel's Will and get blessed by it, no one will take any action against you." The Human Progenitor spoke, wanting to regain control of the conversation. Nux however, wouldn't allow that. If it was before, he would have continued, after all, it was an opportunity to get stronger and be able to protect his wives better. Nux would go to any lengths to get a hold of such an opportunity, right now, however, things were different. He didn't just wish to protect his wives, He needed to protect his mother as well. And these actions definitely placed Faustina at a lot of risk, something Nux couldn't allow. Therefore, he didn't drop the topic like the Progenitor wanted him to, "Mother." He simply glared at his mother and, "This is too risky." "It doesn't matter," Faustina replied. "Even if they find out, none of the Progenitors are strong enough to completely kill me. Escaping together with you and your wives isn't impossible. As for Azriel, he won't wake up unless Yrniel is threatened, so stop worrying ceaselessly and do what I tell you to." The Mother of all Humans ordered in an authoritative tone. A tone that even Nux couldn't ignore. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶 In the end, he can only ask a single question... "Why...?" A single question that bothered him all this while, "Why go this far for me?" A question, that brought the most beautiful smile on the woman's face, a smile that made Nux shudder. "Because you are my son, of course." Nux fell silent. The words were simply too strong for him to react to. And for some reason, Nux could tell that these words weren't false. The emotions behind those words were unmistakably genuine. Even the most skilled actor in the universe would be unable to replicate such simple yet strong emotions. Faustina Origin... was simply doing all this for a son... She wanted to feel what it is like to be a Mother. A mother loved by her son and a mother who was prepared to go to any lengths for her son. And seeing her son's reaction, Faustina knew it was all worth it. After long, long years, she finally felt the same emotions again, the emotions of a Mother, and this time, these emotions were a lot stronger than what she felt before. After all, all those years ago, she was still a clueless woman, understanding such complicated emotions at that time was too difficult for a being who was born out of nature and had no one to guide her. And by the time she understood it... She had already lost everything, with only Caesar and the other Progenitors left as her 'family'. A 'family' that was already broken from the beginning. After all, hardly any being remains sane after living for millions of years. That was simply how strong time was. "Mother..." Nux called out, this time, the emotions behind his voice were much stronger than before, and Faustina, who could sense even the slightest change in her child couldn't help but smile when she noticed that. She could sense it, The distance between her son and her, the last 'wall' of doubt and wariness the boy had in his mind regarding a completely unknown old woman who decided to be his mother, completely disappeared after this interaction. "We do not have to do this." Suddenly, Nux spoke up. Faustina narrowed her eyes when she heard those words. For some reason, she didn't feel that Nux spoke those words out of his worry for her but... some other reason. "What do you mean?" The Progenitor questioned. "You must have noticed that the energy I use is different from others, no?" Nux began. Yes, he decided to reveal his biggest secret.
