Chapter 1273 Arcturus is weak but your friends are far weaker.
"Tsk, I'll make her pay for forcing me to leave."
Nux snorted as he walked out of the Portal with a dissatisfied look on his face. Obviously, Vyriana was frustrated after she was 'forced' to accept that bet. Nux was sure that the woman sent her away just to get back at him.
Of course, Nux wasn't planning on taking it lying down.
"I will win."
Nux had made up his mind. Not that he wouldn't be feeling the same if the woman hadn't sent him away. He had been teasing Vyriana for a long time now, honestly, he had spent the most amount of time with that woman but even then, all his flirting had only received one result, firm rejection.
Honestly, all the 'teasing' he does, teases him more than Vyriana. The original appearance of this chapter can be found at Ñøv€lß1n.
Such a fine woman stays right next to him, despite that, he still couldn't just grab that woman and devour her.
How can a man not be frustrated after all this?
Now that he finally got a chance, there was no way Nux was planning to lose.
However...
'She accepted the bet...'
Nux narrowed his eyes. Yes, he did manipulate conditions so that she would have no choice but to accept, but the fact that she still accepted meant that she had a certain confidence in winning.
Astaria was currently a Peak Great Sage, even if she does become a Semi Saint, against him, who has been a Semi Saint for such a long time, the chances of her victory should be quite slim.
'What are they planning...?' Nux wondered.
Of course, he could just ask Astaria and the woman would answer him without holding back, but his pride wouldn't allow him to. Also, as Vyriana's disciple, Astaria shouldn't be siding with him in this situation either. No matter what, Nux didn't wish to crush her Warrior's pride by making her go against her teacher.
This game... he would need to play it on his own.
'Whatever, I am looking forward to seeing what my Star has to show me.'
A confident smile appeared on Nux's face.
If anything, he would get to learn something new. Something that Vyriana still hadn't taught him.
"What are you thinking?"
Suddenly, Nux heard a voice.
He turned around and noticed the Elven Queen walking into his room.
"I thought you went to Waranal," Lyriana questioned.
"I was sent back." Nux's expression wasn't good.
Lyriana, however, couldn't help but smile at this man's misery, "Is that so?"
"You seem glad to hear that." Nux narrowed his eyes.
"Huh? What are you talking about? Why would I be glad?" Lyriana questioned back, her smile, however, didn't fade away. She was clearly enjoying the situation.
"Whatever."
Nux just snorted.
"Anyways, you said you would be taking me to do something interesting. When are you planning to leave?" Lyriana decided to change the topic.
"Ahh."
Nux expression changed.
"Right, there was that too."
Arcturus was Nux's Slave, Nux's words were Laws for him, no matter what, he would never go against them even if died. That was just how scary the Slave Seal was.
Thinking about it, the Elven Queen grabbed the bracelet and wore it. In an instant, she felt some sort of energy locking her down. She could feel a strange powerlessness all over her body.
"Are you two ready?"
Nux questioned.
Arcturus nodded, Lyriana stared at her enemy and nodded as well.
"Start"
Acting as the overseer, Nux ordered. In an instant, Arcturus rushed towards Lyriana, intending to end the battle as fast as possible.
Lyriana wasn't flustered, as a Mana Cultivator, she did have certain disadvantages against a Body Cultivator like Arcturus, however, as a well-known Prodigy, she had her own way to deal with her enemies.
5 Magic Circles appeared on the ground,
*Whoosh* *Whoosh* *Whoosh*
Lyriana's crystal blue eyes shined and in an instant, a crystalline ice wall formed right in front of Arcturus, intending to stop him.
Of course, the spell didn't end there either, before Arcturus could react, Ice walls appeared all around him, instantly trapping him inside an Ice Box.
Nux could sense that it wasn't just a simple piece of ice either, breaking it was difficult, even for him. It was countless times stronger than his Dark Amethyst.
A smile appeared on Lyriana's face. She then raised her hand and clenched her fist.
*Whoosh* *Whoosh* *Whoosh*
Ice Spikes came out of the Walls that surrounded Arcturus, aiming to pin holes all over his body. Her intent to end this battle was clear. With such a limited space, dodging the spikes was almost impossible.
Of course, Nux could do it by turning into his intangible Shadow Form, however, Arcturus had no such ability.
Not that the previous Dragon Lord needed anything like it. He had his own battle style.
A battle style much more dominant than anything else.
In response to the incoming Ice Spikes ready to pierce big holes all over his body,
Arcturus stood still.
*Tak* *Tak* *Tak*
Seeing what happened next, both Nux and Lyriana widened their in disbelief.
Suddenly, Nux recalled what Vyriana once said when he was talking with her and his mother, thinking how the people he had with him would be enough to fight against Arcturus.
'Arcturus is weak.
But your friends are far weaker.'
*Smash*
A huge sound was heard. Nux glanced at the scene in front of him and saw the giant and strong-looking Ice Box that had 'trapped' Arcturus had shattered.
*Step* *Step*
Stepping onto the Shattered Ice Crystals, Arcturus stepped out.
There was not even a single scratch on his body.
"W-What...?"
Lyriana widened her eyes.
