Chapter 838 Is She Stronger Than Me?
“What is it?” Nux questioned.
“Allura,”
Astaria called out.
“What happened?”
“She is training alone again.”
“I told her to do that.”
Nux nodded.
“…”
Astaria turned silent.
“You wish to know why I am not allowing her to spar with anyone, correct?”
Nux smiled.
He understood what his lovely wife was thinking.
The Strongest Wife.
That was the title she held.
However, right now, according to the System’s Battle Power, Allura was the strongest out of all the Nux’s wives.
Of course, Battle Power was not absolute and is just a number given to them by the System. Astaria knew that well, however, to confirm that, and to confirm her status as the strongest, she wanted to spar with Allura.
Even if she was going to lose, she at least needed to come out of the illusion that she was the strongest and work even harder.
That was just what type of Astaria was.
It was not jealousy of something like that, it was just Astaria’s nature.
And of course, Nux didn’t hate it either.
His Warrior Wife, he loved every second of being with her.
But the problem was,
He cannot allow a spar between Allura and Astaria.
“Melia, we will continue our Spar later.”
Nux turned towards Melia.
“Mhm, no problem.”
Melia nodded and turned around, watching the rest of her Clan Sisters.
Nux then took Astaria inside the [Core] and with a serious look on his face, he continued,
“Do you know why I do not show or use my [Incubus Form] in front of you guys?”
“Isn’t it because you wish to keep it a secret so you can surprise us later? Melia and Aisha don’t even know you can turn into an Incubus.”
Astaria questioned.
“Well, that’s true, but that is not the only reason.”
Nux replied.
“The [Incubus Form], it is a state where I am overflowing with Mana. In that form, I can cast countless Spells and still be fine. Even the Mana Regeneration is much faster than my normal form. It is almost to the level of having endless Mana.
That feeling of power… it is almost addicting…
However, that strong power,
It comes with a drawback.
That power gets into my head.
The arrogance and confidence of a high-level demon, along with the power, I inherit that as well.
I tested while I was coming here,
I fought some beasts, and in that battle, I lose control over my original self. Or maybe… it is better to say that I embrace my original self.”
“Wait… so you saying that Allura…”
“That is correct, in the end, I inherited the [Incubus Form] from Allura. Her case might not be as bad as mine since she has gone through the Trial, however, unlike me, who only has to be in that State for a limited amount of time, she has to live with it.
She is not a Human anymore,
She is a Demon.
Though I don’t think she will actually hurt you all, you have to know, she is a Succubus, the Illusions she cast affects your mentality, it can even cause permanent damage.
I have seen her fight, she is strong.
So strong that if I didn’t inherit her Blood, increasing my Mental Defense, even I would not dare to spar with her right now.”
Nux spoke with a serious look on his face.
“She… She is stronger than you…?”
Astaria widened her eyes in shock.
“It is not to that extent,
If I get serious, I can defeat her, but to do that, I will need to kill her.
You cannot spar with Allura, it can only be a Death Battle.” Nux replied.
“Nux…” Astaria called out.
“Hm?”
“I just have one question…”
“Is Allura stronger than you?” Nux could guess what she wanted to ask.
“Yes…” Astaria lowered her head in embarrassment.
She felt like she was being selfish.
“She is.”
Nux replied with an Honest look on his face. 𝗈𝗏𝓵xt.𝗇𝓔t
“The Current you is not fast enough to fight against her, she can simply bombard you with a barrage of spells, keeping you in one position, then she can simply trap you in an illusion, pushing you into a helpless State.
Of course, that is only for the current you.
Once you become a Sage, and your speed and mental defense get stronger, you would be able to defeat her.
Honestly, you just have to get close to her like you do with all your opponents, Allura’s case is just comparatively trickier.”
Nux replied.
“So I need to become a Sage…” Astaria muttered in her head.
Nux smiled.
“Alright… I understand…”
“Mhm, now don’t ask Allura for more spars, alright? She knows her condition but doesn’t wish to hurt your pride, don’t put her in a difficult position.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t trouble her anymore. I’ll even make sure that Ember doesn’t challenge her either.”
“Hahaha~ She has been on edge as well, isn’t she?” Nux laughed out loud.
“She has improved a lot. I feel threatened.” Astaria was honest.
“Mhm, her control over the two elements is strong. Way better than what I have over my 4 Elements.”
“You just have too many things to focus on.
But don’t worry, let Ember continue working on her two elements, I am sure she will show you something interesting soon.
Something that will raise your strength to another level.”
“Huh? What do you mean?”
Nux frowned.
Astaria, however, just smiled mysteriously,
“Hehe~ Just be patient.”
Saying those words, Astaria stood up and stretched her body.
“Anyways, I am sure Amaya has been keeping her eyes on the watch, if we stay here any longer, she will ask for an extra turn. The others would then follow and I will be left out because I ‘already’ got my extra turn.”
Astaria chuckled.
Nux laughed out loud as well.
Astaria then created the Portal and the two of them walked back to the Training Area.
“Sister Astaria, let’s fight again.”
Ember challenged, her red eyes shining.
Astaria smiled and then teased,
“What? That desperate to lose again.”
“I am, try defeating me again.”
Ember smiled back.
Astaria and Ember quickly got back into Sparring.
“Are we going to Spar?
I feel like meeting him would be better.”
Melia walked towards Nux and spoke.
“Mhm, I’ll call him.”
Nux nodded his head.
