Novel Full Chapter 1648: Things he was able to get away with were quite surprising.
“Nux…”
Aeliana called out as she glanced at the spot where a large amount of Universal Energy was gathered.
She now understood why Nux wasn’t able to respond to her messages. Let alone respond, with this much Universal Energy surrounding him, it would be a surprise if the Communication Artifacts even worked. Most of the signals would die before they could even reach him.
If Aeliana didn’t know about Nux’s complete Immunity to Universal Energy, even she would have been panicking right now.
‘The Universe is trying to attack him.’
The Vampire realized.
At the same time, she noticed red mist surrounding her body.
A smile appeared on her face.
A smile that a certain being did not like one bit.
“I am already old, why are you making me move?”
“Hmmm? Father? How did you get here?”
Aeliana questioned with a ‘surprised’ look on her face.
Azriel however, could only press his forehead tightly, unable to bear this headache.
To think that his little girl would play around so recklessly.
“You shouldn’t be here.”
Azriel commented, not playing his daughter’s games.
Realizing that he was not in the mood, Aeliana dropped her playful attitude as well and a grave look appeared on her face as she glanced at the spot where Nux seemed to be trapped again.
“I am worried about him.”
With such dense Universal Energy surrounding him, Aeliana couldn’t use her senses to see what was happening inside behind the curtain of Universal Energy and that only made her warier.
“He is unconscious.”
Azriel replied.
“Your senses can surpass that dense Universal Energy?”
Aeliana was surprised.
Azriel however, didn’t answer and just continued to look at Nux.
Then, after thinking about it for a while,
“Go back.”
He spoke.
Aeliana frowned and her father continued,
“This is his battle,
There is nothing you can do here to help him.”
“Bu-“
“I know you wish to help him because you feel indebted to him, but this is his battle, a battle he needs to fight alone.”
Azriel declared.
Then, the Vampire just shrugged,
“And it is not like the child is in any form of danger.
Even if the Universe is going out of its way to attack him, he is holding on quite well.
Actually, all of this might even give him a pleasant surprise later.
So you do not have to worry unnecessarily,
Go back to that work and wait for him to return.”
Aeliana stared at the spot for a while, even she knew there was nothing she could do here.
It was normal for the Outer Space to be filled with Universal Energy, however, the density of the Energy was normally very low and was something she could resist with Mana, however, with the Universal Energy surrounding Nux, she knew that she couldn’t even get close.
Yes, even for a Primordial-level being like her, that much Universal Energy was life-threatening.
It was one of the two reasons why Azriel came here in the first place, he didn’t want his daughter to take a desperate step and try to challenge the Universe’s Will, especially when there was no need for it.
“Can you tell me why he is unconscious? What is happening inside? Will he be alright? Or would it become dangerous?”
Aeliana asked continuous questions.
Azriel stared at his daughter and smiled wryly.
“I do not know why he is unconscious, but he doesn’t seem to be hurt. His body is simply floating inside while it is surrounded by all the Universal Energy. Nothing looks very dangerous.
That child’s body is actually absorbing the Universal Energy surrounding him and since it is doing it unconsciously, I believe it would only benefit him when he wakes up.”
Azriel then turned towards his daughter and,
“As I said, you have nothing to worry about. Leave.”
“I wish to remain here till he is awake. I need to prepare for any unforeseen situation that might occur.”
“You won’t be able to do quite a lot if something does happen. It is the very Universe we are talking about. It has complete control over the Universal Energy, something that could prove to be quite lethal.
Not to mention it has the ultimate power to use its connection with you and harm you.
Your options are quite limited here, Aeliana.
Your presence won’t change anything.”
Azriel was honest.
As much as he wanted to pamper his daughter and give her the entire universe, he didn’t want her to live in an illusion.
Yes, his daughter was strong. Considerably strong for her level, however, when it came to the Universe and things revolving around it,
She was no different than the women she left behind when she came to this place. Actually, some of the women who didn’t have a connection with the Universe anymore might do better than her in this situation. After all, there were only a few things the Universe could do against beings who weren’t even connected to it in the first place.
However, there was one thing Azriel didn’t consider while making all these assumptions.
Aeliana had a trump card of her own.
And right now, the woman was staring at that very trump card.
“…”
“…”
Silence fell over the place as the father-daughter pair stared at each other.
It was then that Azriel realized it…
“…you are planning on staying here because you know I will too and if something happens, you want me to intervene.”
The instant the strongest being in the world said those words, his daughter’s smile widened.
“You do realize that my real body is still back in Yrniel, correct?”
“Of course.”
“Then you should also know that I cannot actually help you if something really did happen.”
“…” Aeliana just smiled, not saying a word.
Because she didn’t have to.
The cheeky smile on her face was enough.
‘You know you will come here the moment something happens,
There is no point playing these games.’
Azriel’s mouth twitched in annoyance.
He momentarily glared at the spot Nux was supposed to be in and his mouth continued to twitch nonstop.
‘Did that brat knew it was going to happen?’
It wasn’t exactly hard to predict, especially for someone like Nux, who knew his daughter even more than she herself did and his overprotectiveness for his daughter wasn’t exactly a secret either, so for Nux, who had all the information he needed, predicting this scenario wasn’t difficult.
The question, however, was…
Did Nux actually predict this, or was it all just a coincidence and he only brought Aeliana here because he wanted to spend more time with her?
Even though Azriel had seen everything Nux did in those million years he spent inside the Illusion, he still couldn’t come up with an answer.
After all, considering his personality, both options were possible.
He would do this to get closer to the woman he was pursuing, but at the same time, he would also do it just to make sure his wives were safe.
‘Tsk.’
Azriel just snorted in his head.
The more he interacted with this child, the more annoying he became.
Things he was able to get away with were quite surprising.
…
While everyone was either worried or annoyed by him, Nux, whose body was still floating in the Outer Space, had no clue what was happening.
He didn’t know how much time had passed outside, his mind was still in an inactive state, his consciousness was in deep slumber, and despite Lane and Shadow Lane calling him out desperately, trying to get out and help him in any way,
Nux didn’t react.
Time continued to pass.
Aeliana and Azriel continued to stare at the spot where the Universal Energy was getting thinner and thinner.
Yes, his body was still absorbing the energy continuously.
By now, even the Universe had calmed down and wasn’t reacting anymore.
Once again, the Universe couldn’t actually sense Nux’s presence, therefore, according to it, now that it had ‘surrounded’ the problem with ‘poison’, it should already be dealt with.
So even if it lost a world, since the problem was solved, it was satisfied.
Now no one would break the Rules again and everything would become perfect just like how it used to be.
Yes, the Universe was in for a big surprise.
Anyways, as Nux’s body continued to float in Outer Space, 15 years passed.
In these 15 years, Aeliana didn’t move from her position for even a single moment. She had a grave look on her face and the only reason she wasn’t panicking was that the Universal Energy surrounding Nux was getting thinner with each passing moment, signalling that what her father said was correct and that Nux was fake.
And after 15 whole years, the Universal Energy finally faded away, allowing Aeliana to sense Nux’s presence.
“He… absorbed it all…”
Aeliana commented.
This was the amount of Energy that even a Primordial like her had to be wary against and she was sure even the Progenitors back in Yrniel would be the same. The fact that Nux was able to absorb all this energy…
Aeliana had no clue what would become of this man once he opened his eyes.
And as if he was waiting for this moment,
Nux’s eyes twitched.
The One of Devoured an entire World had finally opened his eyes and regained his consciousness.
