"Wait, there is sothing I do not understand."
While Nux was training together with Aeliana and explaining how his version of Absolute Law of Inseparable Forever worked, lia raised her hand in confusion.
"What is it?"
Nux questioned.
"So since this Law is an Absolute, it can only be overpowered by another Absolute Law of Higher Quality Energy, correct?"
"Yes."
"So only Primordials or stronger beings with an Absolute Law can kill you?"
lia questioned.
"Well, that is not entirely correct, but yes, you can say that."
"What do you an by that? Explain."
"It's… complicated."
"Explain."
lia repeated herself, the Vampire had no plans of backing down.
"Transcendents do not need Absolute Laws to kill , obviously, the sa goes for Eternals and Infinities. As for Primordials…"
As Nux started, lia listened carefully.
Primordials were the ones the Vampire actually cared about, after all, Nux won't be going around facing Transcendents or beings at a higher level, now, will he?
That would make no sense.
"Well, so Primordials with Absolute Laws can kill ."
"So?"
lia raised her eyebrow.
"It depends on Intent. T
ake Amaya for example, if she breaks through and becos a Primordial, if she devours my existence using her Law, I will truly perish. But if it's Vyriana, It won't work."
Vyriana narrowed her eyes at those words.
"Absolute ans certainty of a particular Law or Concept, For Amaya, it is simpler, Absolute Devour ans that if she Devours a being, it is certain that she 'ended' his existence. But for Vyriana, her Absolute Strength ans certainty in her Strength. She will be the Strongest at her Level and against her strength, no one would last. This is also the reason that despite being physically stronger than her, she still pushes back every ti she punches . Because her Law makes her the Strongest."
Nux explained.
He didn't know how well he was explaining it, but he was doing his best.
"Then what about ?"
Astaria questioned with a curious look on her face.
Nux nodded at her,
"Your Absolute Sword ans certainty when you cut your opponent, instead of killing, your power is more focused on piercing through one's defenses and cutting them, So…"
"So, a Law like mine cannot kill you either."
"Yes, it cannot."
Nux nodded.
"And ?"
Thyra questioned.
Of course, her Law wasn't an Absolute yet, but once Nux severs her, it will be.
Nux nodded at the cat,
"Yours definitely can."
"So the only Laws that can kill you are Laws related to Primordial Energy of Death or Destruction."
Amaya simplified it.
"Yes, that is correct."
Nux nodded.
"Well, you simplified it a little too much. There are also other forms of Laws I need to be careful of."
Nux then turned towards Aeliana and,
"Her Law, for example. While she cannot technically kill , She can 'control' and since her Control is Absolute, I cannot resist her. If she then orders to end my own existence, I will perish. So Laws can also confine , separate from the rest of the Universe, or harm in so other way, the Universe is vast, I cannot let my guard down. So yes, while my Law is strong and makes unkillable. It still cos with its own weaknesses."
"So basically, as long as the enemy does not know about this power, about its limitations and do not actively look for ways to counter it, you can co back to life in most scenarios, correct?"
Aeliana questioned.
"Yes."
Nux nodded with a confident look on his face.
"…monster."
The Vampire muttered and Nux just smiled wryly.
"Let's just focus on my training, shall we?"
"I'll kill you."
Aeliana threatened and this ti, she wasn't joking around.
If Nux was now an immortal, she was going to use it to her absolute advantage and train him past his limits.
Indeed, the Vampire was quite a Spartan as well.
…
"H-H-How…"
Faelara stared at the man in front of her in disbelief.
She…
She had killed him!
She was sure she had killed him!
Then how…
How was he alive…?
"Don't rack your head over it."
Nux chuckled, using the Fox's words against her.
At the sa ti, he pitied the woman.
He could understand the shock she must be feeling.
The Fox had truly given her all, she had used everything in her arsenal, heck, the woman had summoned a literal Black Hole in order to get rid of him…
Yet…
She failed.
Well, it wasn't her fault.
And it definitely didn't happen because she was weak.
She was just… unfortunate.
Her Law was unsuitable, especially against a being like Nux.
As established before, to kill Nux, she needed a Law related to Death or Destruction. And while the Black Hole did destroy him, the Absolute Concept behind it was erasing Nux's existence.
Which it did,
But…
The monster simply 'reford' again.
Honestly, from the very start, Nux knew Faelara would never be able to kill him, this was also the reason he was playing around throughout the battle.
He wanted to see how far the Fox would push herself, and honestly,
She surprised him.
He was impressed.
"If it is any consolation, Know that I'd be severely weakened after this."
"You… look fine to …"
Faelara answered, her voice extrely weak, her eyes were barely open.
"Well, yeah."
Nux didn't bother lying either.
"Whatever you did was pretty much useless."
"I… could never win…"
The Fox realized it.
"Yes."
Nux nodded.
"Heh…"
A Self Depreciating smile appeared on the Fox's face.
"I chose… the wrong… side…"
The Fox truly looked… pitiful.
Well, at least to any other onlooker.
"You know…"
Nux, however, just stared at the woman, a bit surprised by her relentlessness.
"If it didn't work the first ti, it won't work the second ti either."
He spoke and with a flick of his finger, the Black Dot ford behind him flickered out of existence.
Yes, the Fox, even in the condition she was in, summoned another Black Hole,
Still trying to kill him.
