Chapter 1628 What in the hell are you all talking about?
A/N: Not a smut chapter, so for those who usually skip the smut, don't.

"I am the closest to you than I ever was, Nux Leander. So close that I can even feel what you are thinking, So stop trying to scare me, it won't work. As for those sisters of mine, they would currently kill to be in my place, I have nothing to be jealous of here." Felberta spoke as she rolled over, appearing on top of Nux, pretty much burying his entire body under hers. "How cute~"
She teased as she lightly kissed Nux's lips, the duration was so short that Nux couldn't even realize what happened, let alone enjoy it, he could only recall that lingering feeling on Felberta's lips on his as he stared at this woman, who continued to look at him with a playful smile on her face. "I didn't know being taller than you came with so many advantages." Felberta commented.
Having Nux completely under her grasp was... quite a liberating and novel feeling. She felt like she could do whatever she wanted to this man. Honestly, Felberta's current thoughts were too much for an innocent woman. Yes, the Eldraeth Progenitor wasn't planning on holding back. "I didn't know you being taller than me came with so many advantages either."
Nux replied, looking at Felberta as he anticipated what was about to come. There was a reason Nux wasn't using his Eldraeth Form, he could, if he wanted, become taller than Felberta again but... Where's the fun in that? Being buried under her soft body was already so heavenly, what was going to happen when she made some actual moves? Just thinking about it made Nux's lower body tremble. Suddenly, a light, genuine smile appeared on Nux's face, for some reason, he suddenly remembered how the previous Felberta looked like, some of her facial features were still the same, but the fact was, the one in front of him was truly a completely different woman. From Felberta Alveye, a Viscount of a Small Kingdom, to Felberta Leander, the woman had truly come a long way, she even faced her biggest enemy in this journey and defeated her to emerge as the strong, confident woman who could stand in front of anyone without feeling overwhelmed. "I am so glad you became what you are today, Felberta. I truly am."
"I know tha-"
Felberta frowned, this wasn't the answer she was looking for, but before she could say anything, Nux interrupted and, "This is the vague answer you are looking for. The answer to almost all the questions I have been thinking about. Why was I able to 'create' another Blood Essence? Because I am Greedy, Why was I able to sever your connection with the Universe and Yrniel and keep you all for myself? Because I am Greedy.
Why was I able to take that world's residual power from the Universe? Why was I able to absorb the Universal Energy? The answer is the same for all, I can do it because I am Greedy. My Greed runs everything, How it works, what are the principles behind it, I do not know any such things, I don't even know how to activate it, what other things it can do, and whatnot, I only know that the me right now, is not the same as me before Illusion, And this is not just about the change in my habits, my mind, my powers, or anything like that, I am talking about my entire being, my complete existence is different than what it was before, and I have no clue what I am." Nux spoke in a heavy tone and Felberta stayed silent. Nux on the other hand, glanced at the door and, "Come in, why are you all standing outside?" He spoke and the next instant, the rest of the women walked in as well. Of course, the women were eavesdropping on the conversation, they were listening to everything Nux just said and both Felberta and Nux knew it. No, Nux knew it, Felberta, on the other hand, was the one who arranged it. The first wife then shamelessly sat up, with Nux still in her arms, she was using her turn for this right now, so she had complete hold of Nux and none of these women were in a position to say anything. Right now, Felberta had all the power. Of course, all this didn't matter right now, the main issue here was Nux. "You are a fool." Vyriana called out as she stared at Nux. Nux turned towards the woman and frowned. "You think it changes anything?" Vyriana questioned. "What?" Nux tilted his head. "What you were before, whatever you have become, it changes nothing. If your existence is bound to become a Hero for the Universe, we will be the Heroines standing right beside you, If your existence becomes a Threat to all of the Universe, we will become a threat with you, Our love for you won't be affected by anything, even if you become a completely different existence, None of us will ever leave you." Vyriana spoke and the rest of the women all nodded. Even the pure-hearted Evane didn't hesitate, she could very well become an evil little angel for her husband's sake, she was sure of it. The elf even narrowed her eyes and prepared herself to get down to that road. Skyla, Allura and the rest were the same as well. If it meant they could stay together with Nux, then they were willing to do whatever it took. The women all nodded at Nux again at the same time, and Nux, who received their heavy emotions all at once blinked a few times and after a minute-long silence, He spoke, "What in the hell are you all talking about?" ""Huh?""
The women stuttered. Nux on the other hand, didn't change his tone and, "Who gave you the option in the first place, huh?
None of you will ever leave me? Damn right you won't! I warned you all before, you are stuck with me for the rest of eternity, leaving me or whatever was never an option." Nux then glanced at a certain Dragon and, "If you even think of that nonsense, I'll be taking you in for a very very wild ride." Vyriana's body trembled when she heard Nux's words. "Is that so...?"
Edda on the other hand, just smiled strangely, the woman was now having some weird ideas in her head. Of course, Nux and the party decided to ignore her and continued, "I am not having any sort of existential crisis or whatever, I wasn't busting my mind thinking about whether you all would accept me or not if I am not who I was before, those things were never a question for me, The problem here is that I truly do not understand what I am, I only know that I entered the illusion because I wanted to form a Law, but when I came out, I was a completely different existence, I was a human with strange powers before, And after coming out of the illusion, I might have turned into a Law with a physical form, I might have turned into a World, Or... I might have become an entirely different Universe. And because I do not understand what I am, I am unable to understand the powers I have, which is stopping me from getting stronger." "..." The women turned silent. Especially Vyriana, who had acted out before and now was trying to hide herself. Of course, the Dragon was glad that her husband wasn't having any weak thoughts or was doubting their love, she was glad that he was only thinking about ways to get stronger. She had indeed chosen a perfect man for herself. The dragon inwardly nodded continuously. "So you are trying to understand what you have become?" Amaya questioned.
"Yes." Nux nodded. "I do believe I have turned into somewhat of a Universe, but there are still too many doubts in my head." "What doubts?" "How did I become a Universe in the first place? If I did become a Universe, how am I existing inside another Universe? What about the 'Worlds' that a Universe contains, do I have something like that? What sort of Universe am I? Are there other Universes besides me and the one we live in? And... how am I supposed to move forward? Should I cultivate like a normal Human? Or do Universes have a different way to cultivate? There are too many things I do not know, too many questions unanswered, And this is why I have been staying silent all this while, All of this is simply too much to make sense of." "I'd say it is pretty straightforward." The one who spoke this time was, surprisingly, Edda Leander.
