"Our actions would have brought Yrniel's destruction.
Or, the destruction of 4 Supreme Worlds."
Nux spoke with a light smile on his face as he glanced at Azriel.
Yes, he was trying to win some brownie points in his father-in-law's eyes.
Azriel smirked, Felberta, on the other hand, had a solemn look on her face. To think she missed something as important as this…
This could have not only led to their destruction, it would have also put a target on her son's back, a target so big that they might not have a shot of saving him even if they gave their all.
Her actions would have destroyed everything they took so long to build.
"We still do not understand what not being anchored to the Universe truly means, so it is normal."
Nux looked into Felberta's eyes and,
"Don't blame yourself, everyone makes mistakes, and this wasn't even your mistake, I was the one who gave you the green signal. I guess I was too worried about Royce and didn't think this through."
It wasn't surprising.
Unlike Eisheth and Lyriana's soldiers, and even their daughters, Nux was personally attached to Royce, he was his 'son', and even though Nux looked at him as if he was his little brother, he was still much more important to him than any other soldier.
Nux only wanted the best for him, after all, he had seen the child grow from a bullied child to an Emperor who could stand up for himself.
It was normal for Nux to make crazy choices for his loved ones, especially when things involved complex theories like they do not understand.
"Thank you, Lord Azriel."
Nux suddenly turned towards Azriel and bowed his head.
"Just be careful in the future."
Azriel spoke and just as he was about to leave,
"Actually, there is something I would like to discuss with you."
"What is it?"
Azriel frowned.
It was clear from his expression that he wanted to leave.
Yes, Azriel didn't like Nux one bit, or it was better to say that this old man didn't like anyone other than the Progenitors and his daughter. Especially right now, even spending time with the Progenitors was like a chore for him, a chore he couldn't skip because it was important, other than that, only staying with his daughter gave him peace of mind.
"I would like to come together with you and discuss it.
This is important."
Nux spoke with a serious look on his face.
"No."
Azriel was quick to shake his head. Heck, he even turned around, ready to leave.
"It might help the Progenitors."
Azriel froze.
He turned back and,
"How?"
"That is what I wish to discuss.
And it shouldn't be done here."
Nux spoke as he looked around.
Royce, Olivia and the others were already out of the conversation before all of this even started, they still did not understand what not being anchored to the Universe or whatnot meant, they only understood that something bad would have happened if this man didn't stop them.
Another thing they understood was that this man was strong, they couldn't imagine someone talking to Nux in this manner and getting away with it, especially when all those crazy women stood right behind him.
Yes, Royce was aware that these women, even his mother, had a few issues in her head, but of course, the boy accepted the change in his mother readily.
"Come."
In the end, Azriel tore open a Space to a particular place and walked in.
