1259 Compensation
"Artifact...? Ah, that thing? It is yours now, keep it. Consider it as your mother's first gift." Faustina replied and Nux's smile widened.
He has indeed found a rich mother.
"Nux."
Suddenly, Caesar called out with a serious look on his face.
"Hmm?" Nux turned towards his mother's partner.
"You have defeated the Dragon Lord."
Caesar commented. Nux frowned at that comment, unable to understand his intent, "I did."
"The Dragon Lord was a peak existence in Yrniel." Caesar spoke.
"Hm?"
"You can even call him the Strongest Being in Yrniel and you have now defeated such being."
"Lord Caesar, what are you trying to say?" Nux questioned directly.
"When are you planning to leave the smaller pond and enter the bigger one, the one that you belong in?"
Caesar questioned.
"..." Nux momentarily turned silent and Caesar continued,
"You have already defeated the biggest fish of this pond, there is no other challenge left, even the Complete Cultivators here are only Complete Saints, beings you can defeat without putting in any effort.
There is nothing left for you to do here. You would only be crippling your potential here.
Don't you think it is better to enter the bigger pond and broaden your horizons?"
It wasn't just Caesar either,
"I agree with him here, Nux.
Staying here won't do you any good.
You should come with us.
Of course, you are welcome to bring your wives along, I know you aren't leaving them here anyways.
Honestly, the main reason the two of us are even here is to bring you along. All the arrangements have been made, you only have to take the step."
Faustina spoke.
Nux stared at the two Progenitors and shook his head,
"I believe there is still a lot I can do here."
He still had some plans of his own.
"What's left to do here?" Caesar questioned with a frown.
"Or are you the type of person who is happy to be the best amongst the weak and tend to stay away from the strong?"
"That is not the case, Lord Caesar.
The only reason I can defeat Arcturus is because his Law of Self was sealed, I am not actually the strongest here.
There are still more 100s of people who can defeat me.
Not to mention there is also the Black Order, I haven't even started my counterattack against the Black Order, I believe it would be better to start from here and then enter the 'bigger' pond more naturally."
Nux replied, of course, he also had some other plans in his head, the most important one being chasing Vulpiana Dawnshade. The woman had been ignoring him for quite a while. He was hoping she would come to meet him, however, since she didn't, it was time that he made the first move.
Of course, it wasn't something he could say out loud.
After all, 'I still have to chase some women here' is not really an answer his 'mother' would like.
But suddenly,
"The Black Order? What is that?" Caesar frowned in confusion.
"You do not know what the Black Order is?" Nux tilted his head in confusion.
"There is only Ancestral Order, there is nothing like the Black Order" Caesar replied. Faustina, on the other hand, realized something as she placed her hand on Caesar's shoulder and, "It might be something those outer children formed, I remember Aeliana telling me about it." She spoke.
"What...?" Caesar frowned in confusion.
"Why didn't you tell me about it?" he questioned.
"Hmm? I don't know...
I didn't think you would want to know...?"
Faustina didn't seem to care much about the Black Order either.
And Nux who saw their reactions couldn't help but blink in surprise.
The Progenitors didn't know about the Black Order...?
How was this possible...?
Wasn't it an organization that was strong enough to go against the Ancestral Order? How could the two of them not know about something like that? Even someone like Vyriana took the Black Order seriously, so how could... And Outer children? What does that even mean?
Nux's head was filled with more and more questions, unable to contain his curiosity, he questioned, "Mother... you seem awfully careless about the Black Order...
Do you not see them as a threat?"
Hearing that question, Faustina couldn't help but chuckle, "There aren't many things that someone at our level would consider as a threat. The so-called Black Order isn't one of those either."
"Then why don't you destroy them? Wouldn't an Organization like that eventually bring harm to our forces?" Nux questioned.
"Let's say I do destroy them, then what? Who will you or the others face?"
