Chapter 1385 This is ridiculous... ridiculous indeed...

"Nux..." Felberta, the first wife, who had been oddly silent this entire time finally gathered enough guts to call out and, "I... I need to talk to you about something...

It is urgent..." "Oi, don't you think this is a bad ti-"

Aisha obviously didn't like how her moment was ruined, however, the moment she saw Felberta's black eyes, she paused.

She could see just how... heavy those eyes looked.

The deep emotions in those eyes, the emotions the woman had been trying to hide for a long time, the emotions that were finally leaking out since the woman could not seem to bear it anymore.

Without saying anything, Aisha stepped back, slowly walking away from Nux.

Yes, it was her moment, it was time for her to get rewarded for forming her Law, however, this was much more important than that.

After all, she knew that if even she managed to sense the emotions in Felberta's eyes, Nux would be the same. After seeing those eyes, he would never leave the matter and even if she pulled him away, his mind would only be filled with thoughts of another woman.

Something Aisha wouldn't allow in her personal time.

Therefore, she decided to back down on her own.

Or at least that is how she convinced herself...

She would never admit that she backed out solely out of her worry for her sister.

Yes, she wasn't as close to Felberta as she was with Allura, however, having spent so many decades with the woman, she had started treating her and everyone else as family and seeing one of her sisters with such eyes... horrified her.

Right now, more than anything, she wanted Nux to stay with Felberta.

A thought shared by all the women. After all, no matter how much they fought each other, in the end, they were a family. A family that couldn't move forward without everyone being on the same page.

Looking at his wife's eyes, Nux opened a portal without saying anything, the expression on his face was unreadable, all his wives however, could tell what he was feeling.

He was angry.

Not at anyone else, but himself.

Seeing Felberta's state, he was angry that he was unable to notice such strong emotions before.

For a man who says his wives were his life, not being able to sense his first wife's state and letting her emotions pile up to this extent...

How ridiculous.

"Let's talk."

Nux spoke in a hoarse voice, staring at his wife as he pointed at the portal.

It was clear that he wanted to talk to his wife alone so she could express herself properly and he could understand what was worrying her.

Felberta, who saw the portal looked around and sensing her sisters' worries, she made a decision.

"I... want to talk with everyone present here..."

Nux nodded in understanding as he closed the portal. Then, he walked towards his wife and instead of doing anything sexual like caressing her breasts or hugging her from behind, he gently held her hands and knelt in front of her.

"What is it?"

You are mine.

You are the woman I love.

I will never leave you beh-"

Nux wanted to affirm the woman once again, he wanted to erase all her insecurities, he wanted her to be confident in herself, however, before he could even complete his sentence,

"Wait..."

The Human Progenitor called, looking at Felberta with a ridiculous look on her face.

"Girl, can you repeat what you just said? I think I heard wrong."

This was the first time Faustina spoke in that tone and it surprised everyone present, especially Felberta, who couldn't tell what gained the Progenitor's sudden interest.

"How many techniques did you Master to Assimilation Level again?"

The Progenitor questioned and without thinking anything, Felberta answered,

"8."

Faustina raised her eyebrow,

"You mastered 8 techniques to Assimilation Level in... 8 years...?"

The Progenitor questioned.

"Not in 8 years, I have been training these techniques ever since... Lady Vyriana started training us."

Felberta replied, after all, just like the rest of the women here, she was also trained by Vyriana and was told to master her technique.

And as someone who was quite insecure about herself, Felberta went easy with training, she wanted to get better, she wanted to be more useful, she wanted to be recognized, not just as the first wife, but someone strong, someone who Nux could rely on.

"Didn't the rest of your sisters train with you? How come they weren't able to Master their techniques to the Assimilation Level?" Faustina questioned.

"They didn't have to...?"

Felberta couldn't understand.

They were able to form their Law despite not having Mastered so many techniques, weren't they?

Looking at the woman's confused expression, Faustina couldn't help but mutter.

"This is ridiculous... ridiculous indeed..."

Then, a big smile appeared on the woman's smile and,

"Nux."

She called out.

"Hmm?" Nux glanced at his mother and then,

"I finally decided who my disciple will be."
