Chapter 1258  Rich Mother

"Wouldn't you feel wrong by dying in the hands of an opponent you could have killed if it weren't for so many people influencing the battle?"

"…as if I have a choice."

"What if I say you do have a choice?"

Nux questioned with a playful smile on his face.

"…"

Arcturus didn't say anything and simply narrowed his eyes. Ashe already mentioned, he wasn't interested in any of Nux's games, he wasn't willing to play along with this one either. Taking his own life was too cowardly for someone like him, even if he wanted to die, it would be better to die from an enemy's hand.

At the very least, he acknowledged Nux enough to be one to take his life.

After all, this man had high-level members of the Ancestral Order backing him up, his future was limitless. Death by his hands… it wasn't as embarrassing as he may believe.

"I am not satisfied with this ending either. My enemy being held down by others, offering me to take his head, it doesn't sit well with me. After all, I have always solved my problems on my own, I wish to do the same this time as well.

I wish to defeat you when you are not being held back by any sort of Artifact."

Nux spoke and finally, he got Arcturus's attention. Seeing that, Nux smiled inwardly and continued,

"But…

I cannot risk my family's safety just to satisfy my desire to fight either."

"What are you trying to say?"

Arcturus questioned directly.

"Become my Slave."

Nux offered.

"What…?"

"Become my Slave, protect me till I become a Divine Stage Cultivator and promise not to hurt anyone around me, if you do that,

Then you can attack me in whatever way you wish to moment I become a Phase Three Cultivator. I believe then it would truly be a fair fight."

"Fair fight? You are a Complete Cultivator, we are no-"

"Well, then you simply die right now,

I want to fight a warrior, not a weakling with nothing but endless excuses in his head."

Nux shrugged.

"…"

Arcturus turned silent.

"Decide quickly, Arcturus.

You can't keep all these people waiting."

"…what makes you so sure that I will not go back on my promise and harm you before you become a Divine?"

"Hmm? I don't know, I was thinking along the lines of your warrior's will or something. I doubt you would feel better after backstabbing a man weaker than you just so you could get rid of him. I'd hate myself for the rest of my life if I ever do it."

"You are unexpectedly naïve."

Arcturus commented.

"Don't act like we are close,

Just answer the question,

Are you willing to become my Slave or not?"

"I don't understand why you want me to protect you when you already have so many people protecting you, but whatever, if it means I have a shot at smashing that hateful face and burying you 6 feet under the ground,

Then yes, I agree."

Arcturus spoke and in an instant, a strange energy entered his body.

[Slaves: Arcturus Blaze.]

The moment Nux saw that message, a big smile appeared on his face. Honestly, he didn't think this would work since Arcturus didn't exactly answer the direct question even though the intent behind his answer was the same,

'I guess the intent is all I need.'

Nux noted in his head.

"What did you do to me?"

Arcturus, on the other hand, questioned with a frown on his face. Nux, however, just chuckled and,

"You don't need to know, idiot."

Saying those words, Nux waved his hands and Arcturus passed out.

He then grabbed his body and threw it inside the Portal that formed near him. Then, the Black Mist surrounding the stage disappeared and the people who only saw Nux standing in the middle frowned in confusion.

"Where is Arcturus?"

Caesar questioned.

"I dealt with him of course.

The battle is over.

You can announce the results."

Nux spoke with a big smile on his face.

Caesar frowned, he momentarily glanced at Nux's real body who was still sitting together with Faustina and seeing Faustina nod, he simply shrugged and,

"The winner of the Duel,

Nux Leander."

With a wave of his hand, the 10 Dragons supporting Arcturus woke up as well, Caesar glanced at them and,

"With Arcturus dead, the matter between the Dragon Continent and ExceedoGenesis is settled, any further actions that harm the peace of Yrniel in any way will be personally dealt with by me.

And this time, I will not be kind."

It was an open threat, a threat that couldn't be ignored. The 10 Divine Dragons had solemn looks on their faces. The people in the audience were shocked.

They just had too many questions in their heads, what happened to the Dragon Lord? How did he suddenly disappear? What did Nux do to him? And… was Nux really that strong to finish the Dragon Lord in a way where one couldn't even find his body?

Arcturus hadn't even used his Dragon Form yet. How could the battle end so soon?

People here weren't fools, they could feel that things weren't connecting, a certain piece of information was missing, however, there was nothing they could do about it. The overseer standing in the middle of the stage was a being they couldn't question.

The only thing they could do was to go with the flow and accept whatever the overseer said.

The people were soon dismissed, Nux returned to his wives as well, a few moments later, the rest of his subordinates gathered around him, prepared to leave.

All of this was over, it was time for these people to return to their lands.

"Heeh? You really did defeat the Dragon Lord eh? Should I now be scared of you?" Eisheth questioned with a playful smile on her face.

"How could that be? Do I look scary to Mother-in-law? I thought I was only charming in your eyes." Nux replied, reflecting Eisheth's energy.

"You are charming indeed. It is to the point where I sometimes feel that I should steal you away from my daughter." Eisheth answered.

Nux, however, shook his head and, "That is not possible, Mother-in-law, as much as I love you, my love for your daughter is simply too high for you to steal me away from her. Your daughter has me under her thumb.

You are very much welcome to join her though, then the two of you can have me under your thumbs, I wouldn't mind that at all~"

"Of course you wouldn't mind that, you cheeky little pervert." Eisheth laughed out loud, Nux did the same.

Lyriana on the other hand, was staring at these two people with a strange look on her face. She was Nux's slave, she could be considered as someone who knew almost all his secret, his close aide, however, whenever Eisheth was involved, she felt that the relationship between the two was stronger than her relationship with Nux even though Eisheth was in dark about most of the things.

Lyriana's daughter, on the other hand, was thinking about a completely different thing,

"Y-You are a monster!"

She shouted as she pointed her fingers at Nux.

"Hmm? Why would say that?" Nux titled his head in confusion as he glanced at the Elven Princess.

"You still dare to ask! You defeated the Dragon Lord! How did you do that!? No, what did you even do to the Dragon Lord!? Where is his body!?"

"Heeh? You have a lot of questions, don't you?

But you see, for certain reasons, I cannot answer your questions. A certain someone has asked me to maintain some distance from you."

"What?" Ariana frowned in confusion.

Lyriana, on the other hand, narrowed her eyes as Nux momentarily looked at her before he turned around and,

"Anyways, Amaya, help them open the Portals, do not go into my room for now, I will go talk with my new Mother."

"Your mother…?" Amaya narrowed her eyes.

Nux just chuckled, "I'll tell you everything later."

Saying those words, he made his way towards the two Progenitors.

"Mother."

He called out.

Caesar was the first to speak up, "I heard how you refuse to call me Father while you acknowledge her as your Mother, why is that?"

"Personnel preference," Nux replied as he quickly walked behind Faustina, wanting her to save him.

Faustina, of course, took the role of a mother with pride and,

"How dare you question my son's decision?" She looked right into Caesar's eyes and questioned.

"…why did you throw Arcturus into your dimension? What if he makes things difficult for you?" Caesar decided to change the question.

Nux also realized that the Devouring Mist didn't hinder the Progenitors' senses, he didn't find it very surprising though, he simply shook his head and,

"He won't, I have my ways.

Oh right, I would also be borrowing that Artifact, that wouldn't be a problem, right Mother?"

"Artifact…? Ah, that thing? It is yours now, keep it. Consider it as your mother's first gift." Faustina replied and Nux's smile widened.

He has indeed found a rich mother.
