1293 An Opportunity
"What did you say...?"
Faustina stared at Nux and narrowed her eyes.
"You met Lilith?"
Nux nodded, "Yes."
"And you agreed to her terms?"
Faustina questioned as her blue eyes shined as she glanced at Nux, it was as if she was peeking into his very soul to determine whether what he was saying was true or not.
"I did."
Nux nodded again.
He had nothing to hide.
Faustina, however, wasn't happy with the situation.
"Are you sure you weren't under one of her spells? Were you in your right mind when you accepted that bet, no, scratch that, do you wish to follow through with that bet right now? If the answer is no, then let me know, I will deal with the situation." Faustina spoke, her expression made it clear that the woman was ready for a battle.
She wasn't going to let Lilith manipulate her child and let her have her way with him.
Nux, however, shook his head,
"Mother, I was fully conscious when I made that decision, the terms she offered were simply too desirable for me to not accept.
I have Lord Caesar's Blood flowing inside me, I, out of all people, can tell just how valuable a Progenitor's Blood is.
I couldn't possibly miss the chance of my wives getting the Blood of a similar level."
"..." ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
Faustina turned silent.
She couldn't believe that Lilith would go as far as giving her Blood. One had to know, that even if they were the Progenitors, they could only give their Blood once in their entire lifetime.
And seeing as how most Progenitors still hadn't given their Blood to others even when millions of years had passed just showed how much importance they placed on it.
Anomalies like Vyriana and then Nux were needed for the Progenitors to actually view them to be worthy, and now, this woman was randomly giving her Blood away to someone who hadn't even shown their potential yet.
Faustina couldn't believe that Lilith did something so immature like this.
At the same time, she also blamed herself for sort of challenging that crazy woman. If she hadn't challenged her to try and seduce Nux without tricking him, she wouldn't have gone this far. Faustina believed that it was Lilith's way of getting back at her.
'That bitch...'
The Human Progenitor couldn't help but curse in her head at the same time, she stared at her 'son' and passed half of the blame on him as well.
"You let a Progenitor trick you into betting with her?"
"She did not use any tricks, I simply accepted the bet."
"You do realize that this is going to change you permanently, correct?"
"Nothing like that will happen." Nux was confident.
Faustina, however, did not like that confident,
"So not only did you make a bet with a Progenitor, you also intend to come out on the winning side of the argument?"
Faustina then stared right into Nux's soul and,
"Nux, are you looking down on us Progenitors?"
"I am not looking down on you people, Mother. I know how absurdly strong and inexplicably complex you all are.
It is just that your perception is diluted, you see the world differently than I do. I do not know what your goals or intentions are, however, my own goals and aspirations are very clear in my mind, I wish to spend the rest of my life with my wives, without having to worry about anything, for that, if I need to become the strongest, I would work on it.
And in my way of getting strong, I would never lose sight of my original goals. The Bloodline, Abilities, or Strength I have, all of these are mere tools.
Tools through which I will achieve my goal.
Lady Lilith would only be putting me in an illusion where I would live my life like usual for 10,000 years, she plans to let time teach me how 'worthless' relationships are but... she is simply going against the wrong person.
When it comes to the display of abilities, I have no doubt that Lady Lilith is exceptional, but I will not be going against Lady Lilith, I will be going against Time.
