"So you are finally one step away from Sovereign Stage, I sensed your birth centuries ago, what took you so long?" A voice was heard, Nux and the others turned around in surprise. This was a voice they had never heard before, which was surprising since they were currently inside the [Core], it wasn't a place easily accessible to anyone. The moment Nux and his wives turned around, their eyes fell on an ethereal, translucent white figure, its features were blurry and nothing could be said about his race, bloodline, or even his facial features with certainty, just that he had a humanoid frame and… he seemed to know Nux…
"Who are you? And how did you enter this place?" Nux questioned as he narrowed his eyes. He was already on guard, even though he didn't sense any form of hostility, the fact that this being entered [Core] that not many could, was already concerning. In answer to his question, however, the ethereal being just chuckled,
"Look at you being all wary and tense, well, I believe that is a positive reaction. It tells me that you have grown well, Even if you did take quite a long time reaching the required cultivation stage." Vyriana frowned when she heard those words. She didn't know what this Sovereign Stage or the required cultivation stage was, but considering that the man appeared the moment Nux advanced to Saint Stage made it easier for her to relate things. The Dragon wasn't sure, but if this being was complaining that Nux, who became a Saint when he was barely 1000 years old, was slow… then…
She didn't know what to say here. She didn't know where this being came from, but if he was calling a 1000-year-old slow… then she couldn't even imagine what sort of monsters he was used to dealing with. Of course, Vyriana knew better than anyone that Nux was far different than normal Saints, even comparing him to one was an absurd idea in itself, however, the fact that this being appeared out of nowhere and called him slow…
All this only made the Dragon warier. The same was true for the rest of the wives as well, they all stared at the ethereal being with gazes similar to Nux's, ready to attack the moment something went wrong. The Ethereal being noticed it, he however, completely ignored the women and glanced at Nux, "And I see you have surrounded yourself with quite some beautiful women, are these your favourites?
Well, I would have chosen them to be my favourites as well if I were you."
The Ethereal being continued to nod his head, Nux narrowed his eyes at those words, he was already sensitive since his wives were mentioned, however, before he could say anything, the being's next words made him freeze, "As I expected, even if you do not have my Blood, you are still no different than me, son." "!!!" Everyone present reacted to those words. The being, however, once again, ignored all the reactions, instead, he narrowed his eyes, "But why are all these at Sovereign Stage already and you are lacking behind?
They seem quite close to you, did you not mate with them yet?" "Huh? What sort o-" Nux frowned, the being, however, didn't listen and, "No, that shouldn't be the case… You should have mated with them… but if you did that, the System would have activated and you would have become a Sovereign as well…
But you are still a stage below the Sovereign Stage… How is that possible…?" The being then glanced at Nux and narrowed his eyes, "You… Are you purposefully suppressing your cultivation?" It was quite scary how the man was able to deduce everything with a single glance. Nux, however, was stuck on a completely different thing, "You…
How do you know about the System?" It was a secret he hadn't revealed to anyone except for his wives. And Nux knew for sure that his wives would never betray him, then who…"That's because I am the one who made the System." The ethereal being revealed and in an instant, Nux's wives widened their eyes in shock. "You… are the creator…?" Nux questioned directly as he narrowed his eyes. "That is correct. Oh, and I am your father as well." The man added casually. "What!?" This time, the one who reacted was Edda, This was a little too casual! Just who appears and reveals something like this so nonchalantly!?
"Well, we are not related by blood, but then again, being related by Blood or not doesn't really make a difference, after all, a blood bond only lasts for one life." The being shrugged. He was talking about things that no one here understood. A bond that lasts only for one life… isn't that the same for every bond…? Why is this man making it sound like his relationship with Nux is something that transcends that boundary? The women, especially Amaya, narrowed her eyes when she heard those words. She hated how someone else was claiming to be closer to her husband than her, even if their form of relationship was completely different. Yes, she would hate anyone, even Nux's own father, if he tries to get close to Nux more than it is required, Nux was hers, she should be his first and everything. It would be better if even her sisters disappeared. Heck, it would be better if everything, even the entire universe disappeared with only she and Nux left, that would be truly her dream come true. Actually, Amaya was already working hard in order to find a way to devour the entire universe and spend the rest of eternity with Nux alone. Yes, something was indeed wrong with the woman's head, but that was the reason Nux loved her so much. Of course, right now, this wasn't the man's focus, "What are you trying to say?" Amaya questioned directly. "I am saying that I am his father, not through blood, but soul. When we were at our prime and the strongest, our 4 main enemies decided to team up and attack us. We fought back, but in the end, compared to their combined might, we fell short and perished. However, since our relationship was bound not by blood but by soul, we could still sense each other. I have been waiting for billions of years, before dying, I prepared a gift for you, a gift that would only activate after certain conditions are fulfilled,
And after all this time, everything finally came together and we met each other again."
