3 Months passed by and Nux still hadn't returned.
By now, even Astaria, who had kept a brave front all this ti started worrying as well.
All the Slaves Nux had were summoned to the Neutral City, of course, there were so exceptions, so Slaves were not called since they were needed to Manage the 4 Kingdoms, but even without them, there were around 200 Slaves who were summoned and all of them were then ordered to search for Nux.
This started 1 Month ago, however, even when 200 people looked for him, 11 of which, were Emperors, they still failed to find Nux.
"Where could he possibly be?"
Amaya questioned with a worried look on her face.
"I do not know, I have already searched all the places which co to my mind." Felberta shook her head.
The others were the sa.
They all searched everywhere they could think of as well, but Nux was nowhere to be found.
"I think we should stop searching."
Suddenly, Allura spoke up.
The won frowned and turned towards her,
"As Lad- Astaria said before, Nux is not a child, and if he doesn't want us to find him, we never will find him. Even after Searching for so long, we still cannot fight him, there must be a reason for that. I think rather than wasting more ti here, we should focus on our training.
Has anyone of you reached Novice Level with your Spell?"
Allura questioned.
"B-But it has been 3 Months…" Skyla spoke.
"And?"
"…"
"He would return, trust him. Now stop wasting more ti, we already have more than 200 people searching for him, grow up, work on your strength,"
Suddenly, Allura narrowed her eyes and spoke,
"You guys didn't forget helpless we were when Nawdren appeared, didn't you?"
"…"
A deafening silence fell over the place.
"Don't forget, Nux's biggest fear in the Battle was not fighting against Emperors, it was about us. He was scared that we would get hurt in the battle,
You guys didn't forget the face he was making a day before the war before he ca to all of us to reconfirm the plan, did you?
We all swore not to see that face again,
You guys didn't forget it, right?"
Allura spoke and the more she spoke, the heavier the atmosphere in the room got.
The images of Nux's face as he tried to hide his anxiety while he talked about the war appeared in their minds and,
The won clenched their fists in anger.
"Allura is right."
Thyra spoke and then, she walked away.
Ember walked out of the room as well.
One by one, all the won left and the only ones left in the room were Allura and Astaria.
"I didn't expect you to say those words."
Astaria spoke.
"Why? Didn't expect that from a weakling like ?"
Allura smiled playfully.
"I didn't an that at all…"
Astaria frowned.
"Hahaha~ I am just playing around, don't take seriously." Allura chuckled and then,
"Alright, I need to go and train as well."
"I hope you have good results."
Astaria nodded.
Allura nodded back and then walked away.
Astaria did the sa and when she arrived at her training area, she took out her sword as well.
3 more months passed by.
A total of 6 months since Nux has disappeared.
However, this ti, there was no Won's et or anything like that.
The won only t each other when Astaria trained all of them together, Amaya on the other hand, didn't et anyone and had completely locked herself inside her room.
She wanted to quickly increase her Physique's Mastery Level.
She was improving, however, the pace at which she was improving was not satisfying at all.
Astaria has also improved her control over her Sword Technique a lot, however, like Amaya, she wasn't satisfied with her progress.
On the other hand, Thyra, Ember, and the others quickly realized that learning Astaria's technique was difficult and slow.
They still gave so ti to practice it, however, they felt that understanding the 'Spell' was a much faster way to get stronger.
Of course, none of them had reached the Novice Level yet, understanding the 'Spell' was nightmarishly difficult and no matter how hard they tried, they always failed to create a perfect Magic Circle, which Nux seed to do quite easily.
However, slowly but surely, the won were still making progress.
Nux's disappearance worried them, however, this ti, they were much more mature about it. They all focused on their training instead of worrying about sothing they could do nothing about.
6 more months passed by, the won progressed,
Thyra and Ember finally managed to successfully create the Magic Circle successfully reaching the Novice Level Mastery of the Spell, it was still not as refined as the one Nux created, however, it still worked and the output was definitely countless tis stronger than normal Skills.
The others weren't far either, they could all create Magic Circles as well, their Magic Circle was only failing at the very last step, a few more months, and they will all succeed as well.
Of course, not all the won were focusing on these Spells, Amaya, and Astaria were focusing more on their own techniques,
Spells were good and they were working on them, but at the sa ti, they gave a larger chunk of their ti to their own techniques, only keeping a small amount for the spells.
Amaya, however, was a cheat-like existence.
Even before the System update, her Talent was King, even Astaria only had exceptional-level Talent, from that, one could tell that Amaya was special.
Even after not focusing much on the spells, she was the closest to reaching the Novice State after Thyra and Ember.
"Now I know why your Potential is so monstrous."
Astaria muttered as she glanced at Amaya.
"…"
Amaya didn't say anything and sipped on her tea.
"Tsk, I hate talented people."
Astaria snorted.
The other won, who were drinking tea glanced at her from the side, however, seeing how oblivious she was, they just gave up and continued with their drink.
"Hmmm? Are you saying you hate your lovely husband?
Now I am hurt."
