Chapter 2115: Law of Absolute Growth ’He knew that no matter what happened or what Sharnoth did— She would never be able to leave his control.’ Nux spoke with a grim look on his face. ’And that is not even the worst part.’ ’What does that mean?’ Felberta frowned. ’Since Zylarith would be taking control over Sharnoth’s body using his stronger comprehension of Chaos, Sharnoth’s own consciousness wouldn’t disappear either.’ ’So...’ ’All the while Zylarith had complete control over her body, Sharnoth would have been conscious. She would be able to see, hear, touch, and feel everything she was doing or was happening to her. She just... wouldn’t be able to do anything about it... 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢 And this would have continued for... possibly forever.’ ’...What?’ The women’s expressions changed. They couldn’t help but imagine themselves in that situation, thinking about the feeling of helplessness they would have felt, trapped inside their own body, doing something they absolutely did not wish to do but unable to resist it... It made them shiver in disgust. ’I knew he was up to no good.’ Vyriana muttered. She never liked that man from the moment she saw him, the way he talked about using them as tools to grow... It was apparent that he never once considered them as living beings—no, perhaps he did—but in his mind, beings other than him simply did not matter. ’So the reason you devoured Sharnoth was so that you could protect her from Zylarith’s control, huh?’ Suddenly, Riona muttered and Nux nodded. After a slight pause, Riona nodded, ’That makes sense. With the connection between Sharnoth and the Universe’s Chaos now severed, he would have no way to control her now.’ ’That is incorrect.’ Nux shook his head. ’...What?’ ’The energy of Chaos in our Universe comes from Sharnoth’s Law, which in itself comes from Zylarith’s teaching and the main Universe. There is no difference between our Universe’s and the main Universe’s Chaos.’ ’Are you saying...’ ’Because the origin of Chaos is the same, Zylarith can still control Sharnoth’s body even after I devoured her.’ ’Then why did you...’ ’I can take back that control.’ Nux answered. ’Hmm?’ ’Yes, Zylarith can now take control over Sharnoth’s body, but she is also connected with me. Every time he takes control, since Sharnoth will be conscious, she can always talk to me and I can bring her back to our Universe, taking her away from Zylarith. And of course, inside our Universe, I would have absolute control over Chaos—even if Zylarith’s comprehension of Chaos is stronger than mine—and I would be able to give the control back to Sharnoth.’ ’Wait...’ Suddenly, Aeliana frowned. ’Are you saying you can control Sharnoth’s body as well?’ ’As long as she is in our Universe, I can.’ Nux nodded. ’And she can never escape this Universe unless he wants her to.’ Shadow added with a playful laugh, and in an instant, the women turned silent. Misunderstanding the long silence, Nux tried to explain himself, ’It wasn’t something I predicted, and I am not going to us—’ ’Can you take control of my body as well?’ Amaya questioned out of the blue. ’Huh? Of course not.’ Nux answered and— ’Tsk.’ The Devourer snorted. Clearly, she wasn’t the least bit happy about it, and she wasn’t alone. ’Body of Chaos, huh... So I need to create something like that.’ Edda muttered to herself, her mind constantly imagining different scenarios where Nux had complete control over her physical body while her mind was allowed to see, hear, and feel everything that was happening to her. Very quickly, her imagination became wilder and wilder and— ’Fufufu~ The new one’s quite lucky, eh?’ She grinned—a grin that made Nux’s spine tremble. Of course, he would expect something like this from someone like Edda. The problem was how Aisha, Allura, Eisheth, and even Amaya, Aeliana, Lane, and Shadow had appeared next to her, thinking along the same lines. ’Girls...’ He tried calling out, but— ’We need to go meet her.’ Amaya shook her head as she then turned towards Shadow, who quickly moved everyone to where Sharnoth had appeared. ’...’ ’...’ ’...’ Nux and the rest of the women turned silent. ’A b-bunch of perverts!’ Lyriana snorted with a red face, and the women around her nodded continuously. It was quite an adorable sight that made Nux smile, but— ’Nux...’ Suddenly, Felberta called out with a solemn look on her face. ’Hmm? What is it?’ Nux questioned. ’Sharnoth’s story... don’t you find it familiar?’ Felberta answered with slight hesitation. ’Hmm?’ Nux tilted his head in confusion, and the Eldraeth Progenitor continued in a low voice. ’She was picked when she was at her lowest. She was then given something that changed her destiny, making her potential much stronger than anyone around her...’ And suddenly— Nux’s face changed. ’That Chaos Crystal... doesn’t it sound similar to... the System?’ ’...’ ’...’ ’...’ Silence. Complete silence fell over the place. Not just the women here—even the women who had gone to Sharnoth—suddenly froze, and Nux was no different. Was the System and the Chaos Crystal similar? Of course not—they were fundamentally different, extremely different, actually. But... They did have a few things in common. They strengthened the wielder to the point where they easily reached a level they once thought was impossible—and went beyond it. And... they were both created by Zylarith Chaosveil... No, if one thought about it a little more carefully, there were quite a lot of similarities between the System and the Chaos Crystal. Heck, the System seemed like an advanced version of the Chaos Crystal. After all, the Law of Absolute Growth—that was the core of the System—was constantly changing Nux’s body, just like the Chaos Crystal had changed Sharnoth’s body. Actually, the Law of Absolute Growth wasn’t just changing Nux’s body... it was affecting his wives as well. ’Create an army of millions of billions of women to overwhelm the Supreme Worlds.’ Suddenly, Nux recalled what Zylarith told him to do, and suddenly, his body trembled at his next line of thoughts. ’Nux...’ Amaya called out with a grim look on her face. The Devourer had reached the same conclusion as him. Not just her—the rest of the women could tell what everyone was thinking as well. Every single one of them began examining their body, but no matter how much they tried, they couldn’t find anything. ’It is foolish to look.’ Suddenly, Riona shook her head. ’Even someone like Sharnoth failed to sense anything. If the System is something more advanced than the Chaos Crystal, then the chances of us noticing anything aren’t high.’ The women turned silent. Nux remained silent as well. Even when he tried to inspect his own body, he didn’t sense anything. ’Of course, this could also all be us worrying excessively.’ Suddenly, Aeliana spoke with a reassuring smile on her face, ’Zylarith wanted Nux to only comprehend the Law of Absolute Growth, and according to his plan, the "army" of women around Nux shouldn’t have their own Laws either. He simply wanted Nux to use the Law of Absolute Growth to push their cultivation and forcefully make them stronger—False Divines, Primordials, Transcendents, and so on. But this did not happen. Yes, the Law of Absolute Growth helped us—it strengthened our potentials—but unlike Sharnoth, it isn’t the root of our existence. Every single one of us has our own Laws. Yes, the Law of Absolute Growth is connected to the Law of Chaos, but this doesn’t mean he would be able to take control over our bodies. Especially not Nux’s. After all, the Law of Absolute Growth is just one of the Laws he has—it doesn’t even get close to defining his existence. And as long as Nux is free of his control, Just like Sharnoth, We are safe as well.’ The Vampire theorized, and slowly, the women nodded. Those words were convincing. Nux’s existence was much more complicated than anything any being could comprehend. Even if the said being was once hailed as the strongest being in history. Nux nodded at those words as well. The Vampire’s theory was similar to his. This plan might have worked if he had followed the path the System had laid out for him, but right now, it didn’t make any sense. Theoretically, Zylarith should never be able to take control over his body like he could with Sharnoth—and honestly, considering how that dear father of his had been reacting to his moves all this time, It didn’t seem like things were under his control either. From Zylarith’s actions, it seemed like he wanted Nux to come under him. Maybe there was still something he needed to do to take control over his body—maybe... Like the Law of Chaos, the Law of Absolute Growth too has a physique of its own. But... Considering Nux’s current physique... He found it hard to believe that a single Law could have that much effect on him. "Alright, there is no point in thinking about it." Suddenly, Nux just shrugged. Then, he looked at his surroundings and closed his eyes. The shadow beneath his feet moved, covered his entire body before he disappeared. And just as he did— Crack His domain cracked. The crack continued to widen, and after about a minute later, the entire domain dematerialized, and when it happened— RUMBLE RUMBLE RUMBLE THUNDER THUNDER THUNDER The Universe reacted to the disappearance of two Eternals.
