1053 We are surrounded by enemies.
"I will return again, and next time, I will bring back something of equal value and we will exchange some of our secrets,
I would love it if you were up to that and overlooked what I did today."
Lyriana questioned.
"O-Of course!"
Nux stuttered.
He couldn't believe that the Ice Queen, one of the strongest beings in the world when the Order was not involved just bowed her head in front of him.
Lyriana, on the other hand, just smiled as she turned around and walked away.
However, just as she opened the door and was about to leave, she looked at Nux again and,
"And you don't have to worry, you won't be seeing me as an enemy, and I won't be revealing your secret to the Dragon Lord either, considering that your beloved mother-in-law also does the same, so for now, you are currently safe.
Not that you seem to care about it.
You sound quite confident when it comes to going against the 'Incomplete' Divine Stage Cultivators.
Anyways, I will be taking my leave now, Nux Leander."
Saying those words, Lyriana finally left. Her expressionless tone was similar to Orpheus's, Nux however, didn't have the time to compare. Lyriana was angry, or that was what he understood.
Lyriana's tone didn't help either.
Of course, Nux was prepared to face the consequences when he said those words, however, with Lyriana apologizing from the front, it sent Nux off his game.
He couldn't tell whether Lyriana was an enemy or a friend.
"What happened?" Suddenly, Ambrosia questioned.
This was the one time she had seen Nux snap out like he did, Nux usually gave off a vibe of a calm, playful man, today, however, he seemed different.
Not only when he snapped at Lyriana, but even before that.
Something was different about him. Ambrosia couldn't point a finger at it, but,
Nux seemed... more on edge...?
"Well, that was surprising," Nux commented.
"I didn't think she would apologize like that, I guess I shouldn't hold it against her either. What do you say, Mother-in-law? I heard she is your close friend, I think your opinion would be valuable."
Nux turned towards Ambrosia.
Ambrosia, however, wasn't someone who would fall for Nux's games.
"You didn't answer my question, Nux. What happened?" "What do you mean? You saw exactly what happened."
"I am not talking about that, I am asking what happened to you.
Why do you seem different than before?"
"Could it be because I broke through?" Nux tilted his head with a frown. It was as if he couldn't understand what
Ambrosia was talking about.
"One's attitude doesn't change when one breaks through, Nux. Especially when it is someone as talented as you, for you, breaking through the Semi Saint Stage was only a matter of time.
Now stop beating around the bush and tell me what happened, I might be able to help you, you know?"
"But there is nothing I want your help in, Mother-in-law." Nux's answer was clear.
Ambrosia narrowed her eyes
She honestly wanted to Charm to understand the situation, however, she knew it would be crossing the line, in the end, she just
closed her eyes and nodded with a sigh.
"If it is as you say, then I won't bother you anymore." Saying those words, Ambrosia turned around.
"You are leaving?" Nux questioned with a surprised look on his face.
"Well I still feel you are hiding something from me, but it could be just me being strange, anyway, one of us is not in the correct state of mind, so I believe it would be better to leave and return when things get better.
Tell Melia that I came by, will you?"
"You won't be meeting Melia either..."
"I have a feeling that it would be for the best if I leave you guys alone for now and return at a later time.
I think I visited you at the wrong time."
Saying those words, Ambrosia left as well.
As the two women left, Nux narrowed his eyes.
"What happened?' Suddenly, Nux heard Amaya's voice. She was asking the same thing Ambrosia asked, this time, however, Nux wasn't planning on hiding anything.
"We are surrounded by enemies!
Nux replied with a solemn look on his face. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
'Enemies?' Amaya frowned. She couldn't sense anyone, let alone her, even Lady Ambrosia and Lady Lyriana could sense any presence and simply left.
What was Nux talking about?
Amaya wondered.
Nux then continued.
'Vulpiana knew who I was. She knew I could turn into an Incubus, I am not sure if she knows about me being able to turn into a Vampire, however, just the fact that she knows about me and my secret is worrisome.
'I understand that this is worrisome, but how is that related to how you acted around Lady Lyriana and Lady Ambrosia?
I don't think I need to speak it out for you, but you were quite rude, although I understand Lady Lyriana wasn't in the right either, in the end, she didn't come here to fight you, what you did back then could have given us a ridiculously strong enemy with a ridiculously strong backing.
