"There is… the Temple of Ti."
Nux muttered.
"And…?"
"And…
I don't know anything about it."
Nux shook his head.
"Huh?"
"There is just a na. It is supposed to be a myth, and since there was no concrete knowledge, not even the Umbrasol Progenitors looked into the matter."
Nux answered.
"That's strange. Didn't you say the Umbrasol Progenitors were extrely curious beings?"
"They were, but they were also very efficient and thorough. If they believed every single rumor and acted upon it, they wouldn't have gotten anywhere.
Not to ntion, they were at War when they heard this na, so they didn't have the forces to spare on a baseless rumor."
"…"
The won turned silent at those words.
"And you didn't hear anything about this Temple after you devoured all other worlds?"
"Never heard the na a second ti."
Nux shrugged.
"So…
We do not know anything?"
Vyriana muttered, and Nux nodded at her words.
"The Seer clearly has a Law related to Ti. Why isn't she helping us?"
lia couldn't help but question.
"She says that the number of tis she can help is limited."
Nux answered.
"Well, then this is high ti for her to help, no?"
"And why is that?"
Nux questioned back, and suddenly, lia turned silent.
"She ensured that all of you are finally connected to . She dealt with the matter of Yrniel, making it so that I can even threaten a High-Level World without any fear whatsoever. She made it so that right here and right now, we can all decide to start living in my Universe and do nothing, and nothing will co to harm us.
She has done enough already, don't you think?"
"She wasn't the one who did it…"
Rune countered.
"If what she says about already knowing how the Universe would Lord Azriel is true, then she indeed did it all."
"…"
The won turned silent.
Nux, on the other hand, shrugged.
"It doesn't matter what she did and what she didn't.
We are safe now. Now we can take risks we couldn't before. If we ask for more help, we might as well lean on her and let her do everything.
After Ti, it will be Chaos, then Light, Darkness, and Balance. Are we going to seek her help in everything?
Do not forget,
She is not one of us."
"Not yet."
Allura added.
The won turned towards her, and she blinked.
"What? I get good vibes from her."
This ti, Amaya just shook her head and sighed, not wanting to continue the sa conversation as before.
Rather, she turned towards Nux and said,
"What's the plan then?"
"I usually rely on you to co up with a plan, you know? I am the one who should ask this question."
Nux smiled wryly.
"I have sothing, but it will take a long ti and… it is quite heartless."
"You want to start devouring every world?"
Amaya nodded, clearly ashad of the idea.
Not because it was heartless—for her Nux, she didn't care how many she needed to kill—but she also knew that while Nux had no qualms killing, doing it for a 'chance' of finding sothing was not sothing he would do, especially when that chance is ridiculously low.
Not to ntion, the plan itself was quite impractical. There were billions of worlds in the Universe. Nux couldn't just start devouring everything. The Universe would never sit idly if he did that and might even choose to self-destruct.
Amaya knew that, and so did Nux.
Nux smiled wryly. To think even his Amaya was helpless. How many tis has this happened?
In the end, he closed his eyes and started.
"The Law of Ti is becoming a bigger problem than what I gave it credit for, especially considering that I should already have parts of it in so way or another."
Nux glanced at Aeliana and said,
"The Law of Absolute Control allows to Control Ti."
Then, he glanced at Rune.
"The Law of Absolute Foresight gives precognition. My instincts can now react to attacks that haven't happened, and my body can react to it faster than ever."
Then, he turned towards Amaya.
"I can devour Ti itself, allowing to Stop Ti to a certain extent. I can create Ti-Space Rifts, I can create Ti Echoes, I can hide inside another Tiline, making it impossible for anyone to sense . I can do all this, yet…
I am unable to comprehend Ti or any Law related to Ti for that matter.
It… doesn't make sense."
"…"
The won were silent.
"It is as if…"
"The Universe doesn't want you to comprehend the Law of Ti."
Aeliana completed that sentence, and Nux, who was now looking at her, nodded at those words.
"It is similar to the Law of Absolute Space."
Felberta comnted.
"No."
Nux, however, shook his head.
"Faelara was able to comprehend the Law of Absolute Space. The Universe didn't stop her. The Fox Progenitor was the sa. She comprehended Absolute Space as well.
But Ti… no one has comprehended the Law of Ti."
"Or maybe we just do not know who has."
"…"
Nux turned silent.
He couldn't deny that possibility.
"Faelara, huh…"
Suddenly, Edda muttered.
She had entered her serious mode since Nux seed like he needed her help.
"Didn't the Foxes have the Bloodline that allowed them to comprehend Ti and Space much easier than others?"
She pointed out, and Nux narrowed his eyes at those words. Soon, however, he shook his head.
"I read their mories. There was no one amongst the Foxes who managed to comprehend the Law strong enough to actually call it the Law of Ti, or even a part of it. Vulpiana's Law was stronger than all of them combined."
"Mhm, their Bloodline wasn't very strong."
Aeliana nodded at those words. Soon, however, the ring on her finger shone, and suddenly, a Box appeared in her hand.
"But if you do need it, I have the Bloodline."
She revealed.
"You do?"
"My subordinate extracted it when they went to the Foxes to charm them."
