Chapter 1444 How old are you? "Oh, you must be wondering who I am, My name is Faustina Origin, People also call me the Mother of all Humans. Nice to meet you, Nux Leander." Faustina spoke with her usual smile on her face. "Mother…" Nux called out, looking at the blue-eyed woman in front of her. "Hm? Well, you can call me that." Faustina nodded. Aeliana, on the other hand, narrowed her eyes when she noticed her disciple reacting differently compared to his normal self. Her attention, however, was held by the changes that occurred in Nux's body. With how both Caesar and Faustina reacted after Caesar gave his Blood to Nux, they must have sensed something different in Nux's body. Nux was much more special than the two Progenitors expected, so Aeliana wanted to see how the Progenitor's Blood known for its adaptability reacted when it came in contact with a monster like Nux. Honestly, Aeliana wasn't the only one curious. Faustina, Caesar and other Progenitors were the same as well, all of them knew that Nux was somehow able to use the power of multiple bloodlines, they wanted to see how the Progenitor's Blood would fall in this situation. Heck, they were even willing to take this man in as their disciple, they just didn't make a move because of Aeliana. Aeliana seemed quite attached to the boy, so they decided to back away. This was also the reason why most of the Progenitors weren't even present right now. They were afraid that they might have a hard time holding themselves back if they met Nux right now. "Anyways, do you sense any changes in your body?" Faustina questioned as she glanced at Nux. "I do." Nux nodded, clenching his own fist and feeling endless strength coursing through his entire body. He could feel it, his current body had surpassed his body in real life. Just as he expected, the Progenitor Blood devoured other Bloodlines in his body and mutated. This time, however, since the Bloodlines he had were stronger than before, the result was stronger as well. "I know you won't reveal your secrets and since you are Aeliana's student, that is perfectly alright, but… Why don't you test your body out?" Faustina questioned with a playful smile on her face, this year's Disicple's Will was around the corner, of course, none of the Progenitors wanted Nux to face a Semi Saint, they already knew the end of that battle. However, "How about you face Saints this time? You ought to make things a little more interesting, no?" "That is not a bad idea." Nux nodded with a smile as well. "I knew I wasn't wrong about you. You aren't a coward." "Well, I am my Master's disciple, I have an image to uphold." "Indeed indeed." Faustina nodded continuously, impressed by the answer. "You also need to start working on your Law now, I am sure Aeliana have already told you about it, correct?" "Of course." Nux nodded. Aeliana wasn't careless like Vyriana, she had already given Nux the information he needed to know, not that he actually needed to know anything, forming his law was the entire reason he came here in the first place. Both Faustina and Aeliana could see the change in Nux's expression when his Law was mentioned. It was a sensitive topic. "You do not have to push yourself too hard. You are strong, you are better than almost all the cultivators that are in your cultivation stage, I am sure you will do just fine." Faustina spoke reassuringly. "Thank you, mother." "So you are going to keep calling me that huh…" "Can I not…?" "No, I actually like that." Faustina smiled gently. "I would love to converse more but with how your master is looking at me right now, I think I should take my leave for now. We can always talk later, can't we? Take care of yourself, my son." Saying those words, Faustina disappeared, Caesar momentarily glanced at Nux before he decided to leave as well. Since his wife was taking charge and handling the matter, he decided to stay in the background and follow his wife's lead. With the Progenitors gone, the only ones left in the room were Aeliana and Nux. Nux, who saw his Master looking at him with her eyes burning with endless curiosity, didn't know how to react. Instinctively, Nux could sense that her curiosity wasn't merely about the new changes in his body or something like that, it was something much deeper and right now, he had no clue what it was. "Nux." Suddenly, Aeliana called out. "…yes?" Nux tilted his head, right now, it felt like he was a helpless cat trapped in front of a predator far stronger than him. "I have some questions I need answers to." "Hmm? What questions?" "Questions about you. I can sense that there are a lot of things you are hiding from me. As your Master, I wish to know more about you. I wanted to take this slowly at first and be patient, however, my curiosity is taking the better of me." "…" Nux didn't say anything and continued to listen. "Your actions are too… decisive Nux," Aeliana spoke. "This had been the case ever since I met you, no, even before that, when I investigated everything about you, I sensed that your actions were always too decisive, it was as if you never needed to take a moment to think about something. Whether that was taking over the entire continent to protect your loved ones, to manipulating the princess of the Lust State and then interacting with me and my subordinates, even the Trials you took, starting from the Human Trial, you continuously took trials one after another, till you reached this point. I do not know how your body has changed, however, I do know you have become much stronger than before. Anyway, that is not the issue here, what I am trying to say is you have always been walking on a path different than others, however, unlike others who would always watch your steps at each passing moment, your actions are too decisive, It is almost as if you planned everything from the very beginning. It is as if you know something people around you do not. What do you know, Nux? What secrets are you hiding?" Aeliana questioned directly and Nux, who heard those questions froze. "…" He had no answers. He knew Aeliana was perceptive and she had started doubting the situation. His actions weren't exactly subtle either. Well, not that there were ways to keep his actions subtle anyway, but he was expecting Aeliana to hold back for a little longer. He knew that the Vampire trusted him, with the Artifact, he had already proven himself and what side he was in, so considering her personality, she shouldn't be bothering herself with these questions… 'But to think she would have so many questions…' Nux narrowed his eyes. He was trying to think of ways to 'fix' this situation. Honestly, in this fake world, his interaction with Aeliana was the only thing that kept him sane. Right now, Aeliana's presence was like Vyriana's, acting like a pillar to his sanity when his wives weren't around. Aeliana was important to him and he didn't wish to ruin the relationship he had with this woman. Yes, he could avoid her questions, just saying that he didn't wish to answer her question would suffice and Aeliana wouldn't bother him, however, Nux was unsure how that would play out in the long run and how it would affect their relationship, Therefore… he came up with another plan. "A game…?" Aeliana tilted her head in confusion. "A game of questions and answers, "Master." He called out. "How about we play a game?" "A game…?" Aeliana tilted her head in confusion. "A game of questions and answers, You ask me a question, I answer honestly. Then I ask you a question, and you answer." Aeliana narrowed her eyes and Nux smiled, "Just like you, I am quite curious about you as well, Master." Aeliana narrowed her eyes as she stared at her disciple, then, she smiled and, "Alright then." She nodded. "Let's play this game. Would you like to use the Artifact?" "I trust you enough that you will not lie to me." Nux shook his head. "Also, if there is a question one does not wish to answer, the question will be changed." "Oh?" Aeliana raised her eyebrow. "There is no need to go at each other's throat, is there?" Nux smiled. Aeliana stared at him for a while, then, she nodded once again. Soon, the two appeared inside Aeliana's office, "So who goes first?" Aeliana, who was sitting right in front of Nux questioned. "Master first." "Sure." Aeliana nodded. "How old are you?" For some reason, Aeliana believed that the answer she would receive would be different from what she was expecting. "Didn't you already check my bone age?" Nux questioned with a frown on his face. "Why don't you answer the question then?" "…" Nux turned silent, Then, he decided to be honest, "I am about 1250 years old."
