Chapter 1665 I didn’t think this would happen, especially after Nux did all that for her. "You people are back." Allura spoke with a bright smile on her face as she saw her sisters appearing in front of her. Rune, who had been training diligently all this while, wanting to form her Law as soon as possible was here as well. Of course, as happy as the two women seemed since their sisters came back, they still continued to look around, it was clear who the two of them actually wanted to meet. "He won't be coming back for a while." Felberta informed. "And why is that?" "There were some… issues." "What happened?" Rune narrowed her eyes and Felberta started telling the entire story. "So… this is why Aisha isn't here?" "Yes." "Then what are we supposed to do…?" Rune questioned. She couldn't help but panic when she realized the Universe itself was after them. She couldn't help but recall the time when her worries were like how her husband looked like he cheated on her, how her husband betrayed her, and other issues in her family, when they were solved, it was about her people who were constantly dying since they weren't able to cultivate… To think the scope of her problems jumped from unsolved family issues to… having entire universe coming after them. "For now, focus on forming a Law and make sure you do not form a Dependent Law, Nux will lose his mind if anything else happens to any of us. For the sake of his sanity, control your urges." Felberta spoke, as someone who saw Nux's expression when he was looking at unconscious Riona, she knew how dangerous it was to leave him alone right now, especially when he is already mentally unstable ever since he returned from the association. "Is he alright…?" "…" Allura questioned, soon, however, she realized what the answer to her question was and turned silent. "…" Rune turned silent, not saying anything else either. "So are we going to Eisheth right now?" Allura questioned. "We, not you. You will be staying in the ExceedoGenesis base for a while." "What am I supposed to do there?" "Nothing, you aren't supposed to do anything. Amaya says you are one of the targets, so you will not make any moves." Felberta ordered, her tone conveyed that she wasn't going to entertain no as an answer. "…alright." Allura could only nod in agreement. Felberta then turned towards Rune and, "You focus on forming your Law. How much time do you even need? Catch up girl, you are being left behind. Where did your assassin pride go?" "Assassins aren't supposed to be prideful, the moment we let our pride affect us is the moment we d-" "Oh come on, I don't need logic, I need to see your Law." Felberta was quick to dismiss the cat. "Do you need any help? We can even open the Trials for you if you want." "I don't need trials to form my Law." Rune firmly shook her head. "I still don't understand why you are so against taking the Trials." "I do not want to see him again." Rune's answer was simple. "You can just choose not to see him, you know?" "He was planted by my mother, I cannot avoid him." "…" "As I said, I do not need to take the Trials and I promise I won't form a dependent Law." Rune assured, Felberta nodded then, "Focus on forming your Law, we will be taking our leave." Rune nodded. The women then disappeared. The next destination, Lust State, Eisheth's Mansion. "When would you girls stop coming in here as if you own this place?" Rislith complained as Felberta and the others walked out of the Portal in the middle of the State Hall, where a meeting was being held. Felberta looked around, then, she glanced at Rislith and, "Where is Eisheth?" "What happened?" Rislith questioned back. "You will know it soon, we need to talk to Eisheth first." "…" Rislith turned silent. To think these were the same women, who, just a few decades ago, came to their mansion, ignorant and weak. Looking at them now, Rislith was having a hard time comparing the two images, just the mere presence of these women alone was enough to overpower her now. "She should be in her room." Rislith answer as she backed away and none of people sitting in the State Hall meeting blamed her for showing a weak side as a leader and letting these women order her around, all of them just wanted these monsters to leave as soon as possible. Being suppressed by Auras of Complete Divines, who were already in not a very good mood, wasn't something incomplete cultivators that aren't even Divines could do. "Alright." Felberta nodded, completely ignoring whatever signals the beings present in the State Hall passed each other. … "I know all of you know this already, but be aware of what you say in front of Eisheth." Right before entering the Succubus Queen's room, Felberta created a barrier and spoke. The rest of the women momentarily looked at her and then they nodded. "I didn't think this would happen, especially after Nux did all that for her." Skyla commented. She still remembered how Nux claimed to make her hers in front of everyone. "Riona is still unconscious, Lane was attacked and targeted by the Universe, the rest of you weren't exactly safe either, For him, it was a choice between protecting his wives and going after a woman he likes. And we all know what he would choose." Vyriana replied with an neutral look on her face. She didn't know what to feel about the situation, right now, she could only think of Nux and if he was alright or not. The rest of the women turned silent. Vyriana was right, no matter how much Nux liked Eisheth, when it came to a choice between Eisheth and his wives, A choice where he could either strengthen himself and protect his wives from the Universe that is trying to kill them or return to Yrniel to meet Eisheth, claim her as his, strengthen her somehow, all while his wives were still at risk of being attacked by the Universe. It was something completely out of their control, yes, Nux didn't expect it would take him a few years to return to Yrniel when he first left, however, at best, he only expected 5 to 10 years, however, when it was first revealed that he needed 15 years just to devour one World, things changed. At first, Nux believed that Eisheth should be able to hold on for a few more years. Aisha did the same. It was a sort of test, Nux wanted to know if Eisheth truly felt the same way about him as he did about her. Nux already knew that the Queen knew him well, she knew just how much he hated the idea of sharing his partner, it was hypocritical considering he himself had many women, but that was just what he was, a greedy, selfish being. Eisheth should know that, so she should also know the moment she gave into her body's desires, she would lose Nux. So if she felt the same way about Nux she would resist her body's urges, just like how Aisha did. Of course, Eisheth's case was different compared to Aisha's, Aisha was in a Trial, where she was able to restart it all. It was similar to a drug addiction, in Aisha's case, she was only mentally addicted to the drugs, her body was new and could adapt slowly as long as she didn't come in contact with the drugs anymore, of course, the process was ridiculously difficult, but it was still possible, Aisha proved it was. In Eisheth's case, however, both her body and mind were addicted to the drug, and that too for more than Seven thousand years, sure, it might be possible to control herself for a few years, especially after she tasted the 'real drug', Nux judged that timeframe to be around 20-30 years. Yes, he was selfishly expecting Eisheth to resist her body's urges for all these years, he was expecting that since he gained so much information the first time he devoured the world, the next time, he would be able to do it in less time and then return to Yrniel and meet Eisheth, But then what happened, happened and, in the end, He made the choice to enter the timeless state and reform his brain even though he knew it would take a long time, even a few decades if it went beyond his expectations. He was basically giving up on Eisheth and his wives' thoughts aligned with him as well, They had given up on Eisheth as well. This was the reason why Felberta wanted others to be careful about what they spoke in front of her, "Anyways, let's stop talking, Aisha is still in danger. We need to help her." Felberta spoke. Then, she walked into Eisheth's room. The rest of the women followed. "Oh? You all are here. Took you much longer than I initially expected."
