Chapter 1294 Did you perhaps meet Faelara Dawnshade?
"Consider it done."
Nux replied with a confident smile on his face.
Faustina chuckled as well.
She knew she shouldn't make a decision about giving her blood away so easily, however, they already had a monster like Nux as the Future Human General, honestly, if even he couldn't fulfill that role, Faustina highly doubted that anyone else could either. Therefore, she was allowed to be a little carefree.
Not to mention that she really wanted to see the look on that woman's face when she loses.
After all, it would be the first time a Progenitor would lose against a mortal, Faustina believed that her giving away her Blood as a gift to her son in this situation was perfectly worth it.
"Right, mother, there was also something I wished to talk about."
Suddenly, Nux spoke up.
"What is it?" Faustina questioned.
"Some of my wives are currently inside the Trial Towers."
"I know that." Faustina nodded. She has been keeping an eye on her son's movement, so she was up to date.
"I wish to join the Ancestral Order after they are back."
Nux spoke and suddenly, Faustina's expression changed.
"What...?"
"I believe that there is nothing left for me to do here,"
"Have you discussed it with your wives? Some of them are still taking the trials, do you not think that it is too unfair for them if you decide it on your own?" Faustina questioned, Nux however, shook his head,
"I was the only one who was holding them back."
"Are you sure you are ready to leave?"
Faustina questioned and after giving it another thought, Nux nodded.
"I am."
"What happened?" Faustina questioned. "What happened to the things you said you wanted to do before leaving?"
Before Nux could even answer, Felberta suddenly realized something,
"You visited the Dawnshade House a week ago."
The Progenitor then stared at Nux and,
"Did something happen there? Did you perhaps meet Faelara Dawnshade?" Faustina questioned and Nux's expression changed.
"You know about Faelara Dawnshade...?"
Faustina simply chuckled.
Nux couldn't help but frown,
"But how is that possible? Faelara is-"
"It doesn't matter."
Before Nux could even complete his sentence, Faustina interrupted.
It only allows her to comprehend time-space laws without hurting her body in the process, the only advantage she has over the beings of Yrniel is that she has an early start on her journey to comprehend laws.
She is not an exception, besides her ridiculously pure Blood, all the Foxkins have the same advantage over other races, however, none are as special as her.
Faelara is a rarely seen Gem. She may not be stronger than Vyriana since the Dragon is pretty much a monster in her own right, however, the Fox is definitely much trickier to deal with."
Faustina spoke, then she glanced at Nux and smiled,
"This is also the reason she was able to sense your presence, you may be able to hide your existence to the point where even Mana wouldn't react to you, however, the space that your body consumes simply cannot be hidden.
With her perception and understanding of Space, there is no way someone of your level, no matter how grand your ability is, will be able to escape her senses.
That is simply impossible."
"Abilities over Space huh..." Nux muttered to himself.
Faustina nodded,
"Mhm, for the current you, she is probably the most intimidating person you would meet."
"Well, I have met you and the other Progenitors." Nux tried to compare.
Faustina however, simply laughed out loud when she heard those words.
"When have we tried to intimidate you?"
"Try seeing more than 60 beings standing in front of you when you just came out of a room, then tell me if it is not intimidating."
Nux was quick with his retort.
Faustina just chuckled as she shook her head, then, she returned to the main topic,
"Anyways, I understand your reasoning for wanting to join the Ancestral Order. Meeting Faelara at your level must have been overwhelming, that girl is quite an arrogant one herself and the worst part is that there is nothing the current you can do to take her on.
I will give you two more months to reconsider your decision, and if you do not change your mind in these 2 months, you and your wives will be coming with me.
Remember, once you leave, you will not be allowed to return."
"Why do we even have such a rule? It is quite an unnecessary limitation, no?" Nux questioned.
Faustina however, just shook her head and questioned,
"How much do you know about the world beyond Yrniel?"
"I only know that it exists. Yrniel isn't the only place where intelligent beings exist."
"See how limited information you have? How do you think that is possible?"
A frown appeared on Nux's face,
"It is because you are limiting the information exchange..." Nux muttered as he stared at Faustina. The Progenitor nodded in agreement.
"But why?" Nux couldn't understand.
"There is no point." Faustina shook her head.
"The beings living outside of Yrniel aren't exactly our friends. The people of Yrniel have no reason to meet them, they are all too powerless in front of them. As for the ones capable of holding their own against them, we recruit them into the Order."
"But why limit the information? Wouldn't more people knowing about this spread more awareness, it would make the arrogant less arrogant while also opening the doors to new possibilities."
"The only thing it 'opens' up is the despair, death, and destruction.
We have tried it once before, we have no reason to try it again.
The less people know about the world beyond Yrniel, the better."
