Chapter 1260 When are we fighting?
"Surely Lady Ignatia isn't forgetting to compensate me for the emotional damage me and my people received because of the previous Dragon Lord's action, is she?
I believe it is high time that you pay up."
Nux spoke with a gentle smile on his face.
Ignatia raised her eyebrows, "You still need compensation?"
"Hmm? Still? You talk as if I already got my compensation. That's quite strange."
"You already killed Lord Arcturus, you bastard! What else do you need!?"
Unable to take it anymore, one of the Divine Stage Cultivators shouted in extreme anger, his Aura burst out and although he didn't intend to harm Nux through his Aura, his anger flaming his strength was enough for Nux to step back.
Nux, however, didn't seem very scared,
"Lady Ignatia, I would prefer if the randoms do not open their mouths here. I am here to talk with the figure who has the actual say, not some dogs who would only bite when they are told to."
"You..." The Dragon was clearly angered, however, before he could say anything,
"Everyone here has unmatchable influence throughout the Dragon Continent, so much that their ranks could be considered higher than mine, one of them will also become the next Dragon Lord. Everyone here has the 'actual say' like you said."
Ignatia spoke up. Ñøv€lRapture marked the initial hosting of this chapter on Ñôv€lß¡n.
Nux was impressed, he could see that the Dragons were pleased when they heard Ignatia's words, seeing how they were acting, he could tell that unlike Ignatia, Arcturus never acknowledged or valued his subordinates. It wasn't hard to decipher when almost all the Dragons readily became his Slaves the moment they were given the option to.
Creatures with extreme pride... Arcturus had driven them to the point where they wanted to take revenge against him, even if that meant swallowing their pride and submitting to the opponent.
Ignatia, however, was clearly different, she wasn't the strongest here, however, with her acting as the leader, Nux could tell that the Dragon Continent had a bright future.
Not that it mattered.
It was already too late.
Ignatia might be a good leader, yes, however, with his presence, Dragon Continent was bound to fall. Of course, he wasn't petty enough to do all this just to satisfy his sadistic pleasure, he had his own reasons.
First, he wanted to repay Lyriana, he had used the Elven Treasury in order to open the Human Trials, he needed to refill that.
He also needed resources to reopen the Human Trials.
It was his wife's request.
Astaria Leander was not satisfied with her result and although it is proven that the results of the Trials do not change no matter how many times the Trial Takers take the Trial, Astaria wanted to try it one more time.
And of course, since his wife wanted it, Nux had to obey, resources didn't matter, as one of the Strongest Races in the world, the Dragons were loaded, so even if this spend was somewhat unreasonable, for his wife's happiness, Nux was prepared to be reckless.
And for his recklessness, Ignatia, or the Dragon Continent was the one who had to pay the price.
"Well, it doesn't matter who they are,
I only care about compensation.
Arcturus's death was the result of his own actions and now as a winner, I have the right to take what the loser left."
"The Dragon Continent or anything in here is not Arcturus's personal property."
"You are telling me that the previous Dragon Lord did not own the Dragon Continent?" Nux raised his eyebrow.
"No Dragon Lord does, ruling and owning are two different terms."
Ignatia replied as she looked right into Nux's eyes, hearing her words, Nux laughed out loud, then, as he shook his head, he stared at Ignatia's face and,
Nux commented with a thoughtful look on his face, his eyes scanning Ignatia from up to down, but before the woman could say anything, one of the Dragons had enough and,
"Come back with your real body whenever you feel the life is too easy."
*BOOM*
As he said those words, his Aura burst out, aiming to destroy Nux's Clone, but then,
*BOOM*
An Aura much stronger than the Dragon's canceled his Aura and what was even more frightening was that this Aura was something everyone in the Hall could recognize in an instant.
"L-Lord..." the Dragon stuttered.
Even when Ignatia and the others had already sensed it through the Aura, the man's appearance made them widen their eyes in absolute shock, Arcturus was here...
B-But... why was he standing beside Nux...?
It was as if he was... protecting him...?
Haah?
Everyone was confused until...
Nux placed his hands on Arcturus's head and ruffled his hair playfully as if he were his pet, something that horrified the Dragons but what made them react even more was how Arcturus seemed glad when Nux did it.
"..."
"Do you still think you people stand a chance against me?
When Arcy is the one protecting me?
That's quite some confidence you got there."
Nux commented.
"..."
And of course, he only received silence in response. No one could believe what they were seeing. Nux on the other hand, continued,
"So? When are we fighting? I would have preferred to get what I want without having to do any work, but I wouldn't mind destroying everyone before I grab it myself.
Tell me, who wishes to face Arcy first? Or do you all want to have a go at him together? Of course, we would be playing teams as well."
Nux spoke as 39 Cores formed behind him, one Divine Stage Cultivator stepping out of each of them.
"..."
In an instant, the air in the room changed.
"Nux, we are not looking for any fights, tell me what are your demands and we will see how it goes from there," Ignatia spoke. She still couldn't overcome her shock, however, this was something important.
A solution was required and she needed to be the one to do it.
Of course, this time, she didn't face any resistance. How would she? A single presence here changed everything, especially when the man wasn't wearing the Bracelet that was used to contain his Law of Self.
"I believe it would be better if we talk inside a room, just you and me."
Nux spoke as he glanced at Ignatia.
Ignatia momentarily glanced at Arcturus, however, seeing how he wasn't reacting, she glanced at Nux and sighed,
"As you say."
