"Since you people value your life so much, I thought the best way to control you would be to have power over your death. Go against my orders or try to harm me or my people once, And you will die the moment I will it." Nux spoke with a cold look on his face. The three Primordials widened their eyes in surprise when they heard his words. Inferath barely held back the urge to laugh out loud. A Sovereign threatening to kill them, Primordials? How laughable! The only reason this boy was still alive was because of that woman hovering behind him. ’Tsk.’ In the end, Inferath could only snort in his head. "Now the second rule," Nux continued, completely ignoring the Primordials’ expressions. Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh Suddenly, a few portals appeared in the air, and nine women walked out of them. They were the mercenaries these people had seen before. "Treat them as you would treat your Goddesses," Nux’s words were heard, then he glanced at Kaelith with an expression that would terrify even the fiercest demons, and then, "Disrespect them," Nux extended his arm, pointing toward Kaelith, and suddenly, Kaelith’s body started hovering in the air. "And this is what is going to happen to you." Suddenly, the ’Seed’ in Kaelith’s body reacted. His entire body was quickly surrounded by cold black energy. He tried to resist, wanting to eject this strange energy out of his body, but no matter what he did, his own energy, despite being of a higher quality than Nux’s, couldn’t do anything against it. It was as if he had no control inside his own body. The dark energy continued to increase, engulfing every part of his body from the inside. Panic surged in. Kaelith started moving frantically, but he was helpless. He couldn’t do anything. Neither could he access his own energy anymore, nor could he move like he wished to. He seemed like a bug frantically moving its limbs in desperation while it was hanged in the air using an invisible string. Then, something even scarier happened. The black energy that had engulfed his entire body started draining his life force. "AAGGGHHHH!! NO, NO! I DO NOT WISH TO DIE!!! PLEASE FORGIVE ME!!!" The Dreadborn screamed in terror, begging for his life. Nux, however, simply glanced at Inferath, making his body flinch, before he turned toward the Tandris Soldiers and said, "Etch this sight in your minds. It doesn’t matter who you are, how much contribution you have made, what backings you have, or how strong you are, The day you disrespect them or break any other rules I set, This will be your end." "AAGGGGHHHH!!!" As Nux’s words ended, so did the Dreadborn’s screams. Thud With a thud, his body fell to the ground, lifeless, and absolute silence fell on the battlefield. "Malcharon." Nux called out. "Take command of the army. Sort them out." He ordered, and understanding what his words meant, the Nightveil nodded. "Yes, my Lord." He stood up and then walked toward his soldiers. Inferath followed him, not before uneasily gazing at his comrade’s dead body and the man who had killed him. He actually did it… A Sovereign killed a Primordial… What sort of monstrosity were they dealing with…? And… why does no one around this man seem surprised…? Of course, Inferath didn’t dare to ask any of these questions. He simply walked behind his comrade, who, lord knows how, was still calm in his situation. Malcharon stared at his soldiers. The soldiers were full of uncertainty, doubt, and… fear. Malcharon stared at them for a few seconds, then he flew into the air. Inferath followed, and the soldiers glanced at their leaders. "Those who do not wish to follow me and serve our savior, stand up while the others keep kneeling." His words were clear. Once again, the soldiers exchanged uneasy glances. They had countless questions in their minds. What would happen to them? What about their families? What were they supposed to do? Malcharon, however, seemed to have no intention of answering those questions. Honestly, most soldiers who could understand their situation had already made a decision. A few, however, still couldn’t abandon their families, so they decided to stand up. One after another, more and more soldiers stood up, and once Malcharon confirmed no one else would follow, he stared at the soldiers who did stand and questioned, Experience new tales on freewebnovel "I assume you wish to die together with your families?" "Yes, we wish to try and protect everyone we can…" 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢 One of the soldiers nodded. The rest nodded as well. By now, Nux wasn’t very interested in them. He and his women, together with Aeliana, had gathered at one point, and suddenly, "Are you sure about this?" Ember questioned. It was a question everyone else had in their minds. "If you take them in, it will not be surprising if both factions come after you." "It is definitely a possibility." Nux nodded with a light smile on his face as he walked in a particular direction. "But do you think a faction would waste its resources to find a bunch of Primordials? The biggest concern here was that the rules set by the Supreme Worlds were broken. The two worlds that did that will be destroyed, ensuring the Supreme Worlds’ dominance and their ’face.’ No one would care about this matter anymore than that." Nux shrugged. Aeliana, however, shook her head. "Not many would, but that Middle Level World would. They would send people to find out who we are, and since they know quite a lot of Primordials have died…" The Vampire stared at Nux and continued, "They might send a Transcendent this time." Nux paused. He turned around and glanced at his future wife. "Yes, that is possible as well." He accepted, then he retrieved a black sword from a corpse—a sword that Aeliana recognized in an instant—and Nux continued, "But now we might not be as helpless against a Transcendent as we think, no?" Nux spoke, and Aeliana widened her eyes in disbelief. The enemy leader’s Relic… A weapon capable of killing even a Transcendent. "Nux, you…"
