"I am sorry, my future wife, but my Lane is waiting for ,
And she has been waiting for a long ti.
I cannot make her wait any longer."
As he said those words, his body disappeared, pulled into his own shadow.
The wives who heard those words nodded in their heads. This wasn't surprising. All this while, Lane couldn't leave Nux's Universe because of the Main Universe's threat. After the existence of Reaper's Veil was revealed, Nux's first thought was to solve this problem.
However, what worried her was Shadow's existence.
At that ti, Shadow's existence was still unclear. Nux was unsure of what would happen to Shadow if he devoured Lane. This was also the reason Lane told him to hold back.
After all, Lane and Shadow were extrely close. Lane didn't want sothing to happen to Shadow, and honestly, Nux was the sa.
He had gotten close to Shadow as well. He didn't want to hurt her either.
Now, however, when he was surer about Shadow's existence, Lane beca his priority again. The only reason he even returned was because Vyriana had woken up, but now that he had t his Dragon, he decided to return to Reaper's Veil and sever Lane's connection from the Universe.
To his wives, his line of thoughts couldn't be more obvious, so none of them were surprised, however...
The sa wasn't true for the rest.
"Did he just call our Lia his... future wife...?"
Sylvara questioned, turning towards another Progenitor who stood beside her.
Her voice was extrely low, showing her shock and disbelief. Even as a pseudo-Transcendent, she doubted her ears.
"I... I am not sure..."
The other Progenitor had the sa reaction as her.
Yes, from their interaction and how that man's wives had surrounded her, they could tell that their relationship had strengthened, but...
For him to call her his future wife...
And that too, in front of that overprotective father of hers...
The Progenitors could see it. This Azriel was very different than before-the broken Azriel who had lost his wives. This Azriel was... scared.
He, who had lost everything he loved, didn't want to lose his daughter as well. Because of that, he was extrely protective. The Progenitors didn't doubt that this man would exterminate anything that even slightly worried his daughter.
The current Azriel was extrely dangerous, and Aeliana was currently the most protected being in the entire Universe. Any being that would dare to get close to her would be facing that monstrous man's wrath.
And in this situation... that brat had called Aeliana his future wife...
'He is dead...'
The Progenitors declared in their heads as they slowly turned towards Azriel, already prepared to see Azriel pulling that brat out of his Universe or wherever it was he went to. Faustina was even prepared to jump in and save her son, but when the Progenitors saw that man's face,
They froze.
"A-Azriel...?"
Dagahra called out, blinking constantly as he saw his friend.
"Hm? What is it?"
Azriel turned towards him and questioned.
"Y-You are fine?"
Yes, Azriel didn't have any expression other than his usual look of annoyance that they had long gotten used to.
It was a sight that shocked the Progenitors who were already prepared to witness a murder.
"Are you cursing , you damn lizard?"
Hearing Dagahra's words, Azriel questioned, his voice full of annoyance.
He was already irked that that little brat claid HIS daughter as his future wife in front
of everyone, but to think that now even his friend was cursing him.
Dagahra blinked, not knowing anything else.
Saphira, on the other hand, glanced at her disciple, and Vyriana nodded, confirming her doubts.
Saphira's eyes widened in shock.
"You... you gave him the permission to court Lia!?"
Saphira shouted as she pointed her trembling finger at Azriel.
The Vampire Progenitor stared at Vyriana. Vyriana's body trembled for a mont, and Azriel just sighed.
"I am not a controlling father. If my daughter wants sothing or soone, I will let her
do what she wants."
Saying those words, Azriel just disappeared.
"Oh ho~
A loving father and a loving husband, eh? Soone's lucky."
Allura chuckled as she teased Aeliana. A light smile appeared on the Vampire's face as she lowered her head.
Soon, however, not wanting to lose the control that she had barely gotten back, she
stared at lia and,
"Alright then, since he isn't here.
We will be continuing our training."
The Vampire then glanced at Lyriana, Rune, and others and,
"You all will be coming with as well."'
"I am out."
Vyriana, however, shook her head.
Aeliana turned towards her friend and frowned. Vyriana, however, just stared at her
Masters, and her smile widened.
"There are people I wish to challenge. I am still not satisfied with my fight before."
"Oh? Has our little girl grown enough to challenge us now?"
Saphira questioned, imitating her disciple's smile.
"We need to find that out, no?"
"Indeed."
The Master and Disciple stared at each other.
"Oi Oi, I am going to fight as well."
Dagahra didn't want to be left out.
"Of course, I am not leaving until I beat you."
Vyriana clenched her fists.
"Heh."
The three Dragons laughed.
The rest of the 'normal' people here stared at the Dragons with deadpan looks on their faces. The Dragons disappeared. Aeliana took other won with her as well. The only ones now left were the Progenitors, who stared at each other with dumbfounded looks
on their faces, not knowing what to say.
"My Cottage..."
Sylvara muttered in a low voice.
Her little house had been destroyed because of everything that happened. Even now, Sylvara didn't understand why that Dragon would destroy everything before she moved
out.
"Tsk, Dragons and their love for destruction.'
In the end, she just snorted and stared at one of the Dwarven Progenitors who stood
there.
"Don't look at , woman.
I am sleepy"
Thargreak snorted, getting ready to leave.
"Co on, won't it only take you a few seconds?" Sylvara cried.
"Do it on your own, not my problem."
"I'll rember this, you little sapling."
"If you can even keep that mory in your head, old hag"
"I am the sa age as you."
"Doesn't matter, you still look older."
The two's usual banter started, and seeing that, the rest of the Progenitors disappeared,
not wanting to be an audience to another show.
