Chapter 640 Turns For What?

"We need to talk."

Ember spoke with a serious look on her face.

Astaria's expression changed again. She realized this was not something as simple as talking about her first night or something like that.

She walked inside the tent again, the women understood and followed her in as well.

Astaria quickly realized that none of the women looked bothered by the funny smell that was spread around the room.

Rather, a few of them were now looking at her with teasing smiles on their faces, of course, she completely ignored those expressions and sat on the bed.

"What is it?"

Astaria questioned.

"We need your help," Ember replied.

"…" Astaria didn't say anything and Ember continued,

"Train us, we wish to get stronger."

"All of you will become Emperor Stage Cultivators soon, what's the problem? You will automatically become stronger."

Astaria couldn't understand.

"It's not the same," Thyra replied.

Astaria narrowed her eyes.

"Can we defeat you once we become an Emperor?"

"Of course not." Astaria didn't have to think.

"A newbie Emperor cannot defeat me.

Of course, that Pervert is different."

"That's what we are talking about. Just improving our Cultivation won't make any difference. We have realized how weak we are.

We will be visiting the main Continent soon enough.

We will encounter beings stronger than Nawdren.

The bottom line is, Nux is far stronger than us, if its an enemy we can take care of, then Nux can defeat him with his eyes closed, however, the moment an enemy who is strong enough to trouble Nux pops us, all of us would become his weakness, just like what happened with Nawdren.

You, however, are different.

Nux might be stronger than you right now, but you still have a chance to fight together with him once you master that Sword Technique of yours."

Thyra explained.

"So you want me to teach you my Sword Technique? You do realize that it is my Trump Card, right?"

"We will forever be grateful to you.

I know it is unreasonable to ask you this, but I still hope you train us all.

We will give you whatever you ask for in return."

Ember bowed her head. The other women bowed as well.

Astaria's expression didn't change.

Ember bowing in front of her was definitely surprising, but what they were wishing for was something absurd as well.

If they couldn't even lower their pride for it, then they should have forgotten about learning it.

"How did you learn about the sword technique?"

Astaria questioned.

"Nawdren told us."

Amaya replied.

"According to him, this was something that Ancestor used, a technique that made him what he was. His trump card."

"I do not know if this technique is as great as Nawdren makes it out to be, but you have to know.

Even if you learn this technique, there is a high chance that you will not achieve what you wish for."

Astaria replied and the women's expression changed.

"What you all essentially want is to surpass Nux in terms of strength but you have to know, even if I somehow Master this technique, which I don't know how long it will take, I am not sure if I can defeat him."

All the women glanced at Astaria with frowns on their faces.

"The Power to Devour Life, it is not something you can take lightly. He can now kill an Emperor in a matter of seconds. To him, the opponent's techniques doesn't matter, he could simply just keep a distance and in a few seconds, he would suck out his opponent's Life Force and he wins.

If he improves his control over Mist even further, then he would simply be invincible as long as the enemy is not strong enough to get rid of him within 10 seconds.

Even if I master my technique, as long as I cannot get near him, it would simply be useless."

The women's expressions turned serious and all of them glanced at Amaya, Astaria included. Even she knew where the Mist came from.

Amaya glanced at the women looking at him and shook her head,

"Don't look at me like that.

I know how strong the Mist is. I know that well.

But you cannot compare My Mist with his, he has the System helping him.

In order to get make our Mist stronger, we need to comprehend our physique, and unlike Nux, who has his System to help him, I have to do everything manually. I even have to artificially create a place that matches the weird place Nux's soul goes into before I start comprehending.

My progress is countless times slower than his."

Amaya explained her circumstances.

The women turned silent again.

Comparing themselves with Nux was… frustrating,

And what's worse?

Astaria wasn't done yet.

"All of this is just when we are thinking of him as a King Stage Cultivator."

The women's expression changed, Astaria continued,

"Don't forget, he won't just become an Emperor, he would become an Emperor Stage Mana and Body cultivator.

He would be a lot lot stronger than normal Emperor Stage Cultivators.

I can't even imagine how absurdly strong he would be once he becomes an Emperor."

"So…"

"Yes, even if you do learn this technique, which, let me warn you beforehand, is a lot harder than you think and would take an indefinite time for you all, the chances that you can surpass Nux, or even get close to his level are low…

Very low."

"…"

The women didn't know what to say.

"It doesn't matter." Thyra, however, hadn't given up.

"Teach us,"

"What will I get in return?"

Astaria questioned with an interested smile on her face.

"Power to exchange turns whenever you want."

Thyra replied.

The other women widened their eyes in shock, Astaria, however, didn't seem to understand,

"You may not what or how important it is, so let me explain it to you."

Thyra started,

"Each time, we all get different turns, I am offering you to exchange our turns whenever you wish,

Say mine is 2nd, and yours is 10th, then you can ask me to exchange it and I will not refuse."

Astaria, however, was still confused,

"Turns for what?"

She couldn't understand.

"Turns for having sex, of course."

Indeed, Thyra was betting it all.
