"You seem to be having fun.
Did you like my gift?"
Suddenly, everyone heard a playful voice, but before they could react, their movements slowed down.
Everyone but Nux moved unbearably slowly; they were almost frozen.
Nux, who noticed the odd change, turned around, and his eyes fell on a woman he knew very well.
She was here.
"The Seer."
He called out as he narrowed his eyes.
Right now, his thoughts on the Seer were complex.
He had doubted her before; he had even racked his brains trying to come up with ways to kill the woman, but let alone killing her, even tracking her down seemed impossible.
Yet now…
She was standing right in front of him with that same playful smile on her face.
"It doesn't look like you liked my gift very much.
Why is that?"
The woman questioned as she tilted her head in a curious frown.
"You should know that already, don't you? After all, you are the all-knowing Seer."
Nux retorted in a sarcastic tone.
"I do know the reason; I just do not understand why you still hold your grudges."
The Seer answered.
"I am sure you have finally realized what I did was necessary. I gave you a way out, a way to sever all your wives' connections with the Universe and be inseparable.
Is that not what you wanted?"
"You made my wife cry."
"I don't see her crying right now. She looks rather happy."
The Seer spoke as she glanced at Aeliana, who was still smiling and looking in Nux's direction.
"…"
In the end, Nux turned silent.
Even he could see that his anger towards the Seer was more of frustration, pettiness even. He had been in control for such a long time that now that a variable he couldn't control had appeared, he felt… strange.
"I know you do not trust me, Nux. I also know you were planning to track me down and kill me.
But I am not an enemy, Nux Leander.
Azriel Ruinous needed a push, and I gave it to him."
"You told him he would die."
"I only did it because I knew how he would react to my words. If I had directly told him to break his connection with Yrniel and kill himself, even if it was something he had thought of on his own, he would have doubted that I was scheming something and wanted him gone.
Of course, you being suspicious of me from the very start didn't help the situation either. That would have made him doubt me even more.
The only way out of this was to stroke his ego, tell him he couldn't do it, and see what happened next."
The Seer explained, and in the end, Nux turned silent.
After all, this was exactly how it had played out.
"Nux, I know you are doubtful, and truthfully, I wanted you to doubt me because I wanted Azriel to doubt me.
But now that is over, it is time I make something clear.
No matter what happens,
I will never harm you."
The woman spoke, her tone displaying affection and possessiveness very similar to his own.
It was almost too believable.
"Yes, I know it is hard for you, but you cannot deny I made things easier for you.
Not to mention she was too beautiful.
It was a deadly combination.
In the end, Nux shook his head and heaved a big sigh.
"So you are an ally, got it."
"Good."
A beautiful smile appeared on the Seer's face.
"So what do we do next?"
Nux questioned.
"What do you mean?"
The Seer questioned with a playful smile on her face.
"Don't you already know what I mean?"
Nux raised his eyebrow.
"I want to have complete conversations.
I do not want to complete half of your sentences in my mind and carry the entire conversation. It is exhausting and… lonely."
Her voice became low. Soon, however, she shook her head, as if getting rid of an unnecessary memory, and glanced at Nux again.
"So? What do you mean?"
She questioned.
Nux stared at the woman for a while. He still had many questions in his mind, but in the end, he decided to bury them all and trust her a little.
"I am asking what do we do next? The Supreme Worlds are after Father-in-law, but he is too weak to fight them. The same is true for me.
I may have become a Primordial now, but I am nowhere near strong enough to take on an Infinity-Level Being.
So how do we deal with the Supreme Worlds coming after us?"
