"Father!"
Aeliana quickly hugged her now, once again young Father as tightly as she could. Azriel hugged her back with a light smile on his face, constantly patting her back to calm her racing heart.
"Why didn't you say anything…?"
Aeliana, who was finally in her father's embrace again, cried.
Azriel opened his mouth but no words ca out. There were too many things in his mind. Nux hadn't returned for five thousand years and honestly, Azriel had assud the worst. His daughter was already devastated and he wasn't brave enough to share his own situation with her.
Yes, it was an extrely selfish decision, but Azriel couldn't do anything. He couldn't let his daughter suffer more than she already had.
Nux understood that feeling. This was also the reason he stayed silent; he just stared at Azriel, who, after a while, stared back at him, and the two nodded at each other.
"You sure caused a scene."
Azriel spoke up. Nux, however, stared at Aeliana who was still hugging her father and,
"I doubt you get to say that."
"…"
Azriel couldn't retort.
The two laughed a little and then,
"Thank you."
Azriel expressed his gratitude.
No matter what, the fact remained that Nux saved him.
"I guess we are even now?"
Nux smiled.
Azriel saved him once when he appeared in front of the Supre Infinities who were trying to look when he devoured a world for the first ti.
That act saved his life and now, he was even.
"I won't help you again, Father-in-Law."
"Likewise."
Azriel nodded arrogantly.
With his dependency on the Universe now over, his path ahead would be quite simpler. He was the first man who ford a Law that shouldn't exist in any way since the Universe just didn't allow its formation.
Azriel wanted to see how far it took him.
Nux wasn't any different either; he was quite curious as to how strong his Father-in-Law would be once he beca a Primordial.
Yes, even now, he was looking forward to their spar, just that deep inside, he knew even if Azriel beca a Primordial, the two of them could never fight simply because the Universe would then sense his presence and act.
'I will still win though.'
Nux thought inwardly as he stared at his Father-in-Law.
He then chuckled and shook his head; even now, his mind was constantly thinking of ways to sohow comprehend his Father-in-Law's Law.
"I heard you ford your own Ti."
While Nux was thinking all this, Azriel questioned.
"I did. Different Universes have different Ti, so—"
"So your Universe needed its own Unique Ti, I understand."
Azriel nodded, making Nux frown.
This… wasn't sothing just anyone would know…
Knowing what he was thinking, Azriel laughed lightly,
"I have closely inspected our Universe for thousands of years now. I may not know much about other Universes, but if it is about this Universe, I do know quite a bit.
How else do you think I ford my Law?"
"A Law to be completely independent of any Cultivation Bridge, huh…"
Nux muttered.
Just thinking of being able to follow any Cultivation System without any hindrances or bottlenecks at all…
It was… quite liberating.
Azriel smiled.
"So? What's next?"
The Vampire questioned.
"You already got Ti, what's left?"
"Light, Darkness, Balance, Chaos."
Nux answered instantly and a wry smile appeared on Azriel's face.
"So the Energies of the Four Supre Energies, huh…"
"Indeed. I have tried to look for them in other Worlds, from the Lowest Level to Middle-Level Worlds, but no being has ford a Law related to these Energies."
"That's not true."
Azriel shook his head.
"There were beings who ford Laws related to these energies. The Supre Worlds just recruited those people and their families, sothing they accepted readily."
Since he was connected to the Universe, the amount of things he knew was quite a lot as well.
"So every single person accepted that offer?"
"Not really. Just that those who didn't were erased."
Azriel shrugged.
Nux nodded casually as well.
Azriel then stared into his son-in-law's eyes and,
"I will still say not to go against the Supre Worlds right now, especially now more than ever."
"Hmm? What does that an?"
Nux frowned.
"The Four Supre Worlds have ford an alliance."
"Huh…?"
Nux blinked.
"They ford an alliance? Why?"
"To find the Universe's Child."
Azriel smiled wryly.
"For thousands of years, they have been doubting each other, but since the Universe wanted to get rid of , it shared that the Anomaly is soone out of the Four existing Supre Worlds and is still growing stronger.
So those people are out to hunt down the Universe's Child."
"Why would the Universe do that?"
"To get rid of , of course.
I had turned into a deadweight, rember? Anomaly was gone, I had no more use and waiting for to perish on my own was a pain, so it decided to use them."
"Then how are you still alive?"
"Because the Universe was hiding ."
Azriel laughed.
"Huh?"
Nux frowned; he had absolutely no clue what his Father-in-Law was talking about, and Azriel knew that.
"We cannot tell what the Universe is thinking. I have been trying to understand it for thousands of years and I have failed."
"I thought the Universe was childish."
Nux muttered, and Azriel shook his head.
"It is not childish, it's just…
Its perception is different than ours. If it was a child, then one of the Four Supre Worlds would have taken over the entire Universe by now.
A child, no matter how strong, cannot remain in existence for trillions of years."
The Vampire spoke with a solemn look on his face.
Then, he glanced at Nux and returned to the topic,
"Anyways, what I am saying is, be careful of the Supre Worlds; right now, they are at their strongest."
"Don't worry, I will first target Chaos."
Nux answered.
Azriel, who already knew who Nux was talking about, answered.
"It won't be easy; even the Universe cannot detect him."
Nux, however, just grinned nacingly.
"That's the fun part. I don't need to detect him. I already know where that man is."
Azriel stared at Nux for a mont, then, he nodded.
"I wish you luck."
"Thank you."
Nux's grin widened.
"I will see you soon, Father-in-Law."
He spoke as he bowed his head, then, with a wave of his hand, he disappeared and appeared in front of a Middle-Level World.
It was now ti to join the War and this ti, they weren't just going to join it.
They were going to flip it over and over again.
It was ti for the entire Universe to know about the Leander Family.
