Chapter 1226 I will come for you and steal you from your wives.  

I will come for you and steal you from your wives.

"I guess I will contact you after a few thousand years."

"Don't bother,

I won't choose you."

Nux extended his hand as if he were blocking Faustina and shook his head.

"I have no need to seek someone else because I am 'bored', I have my wives with me."

Faustina just smiled, she didn't say anything else since she knew that no matter what she said, Nux wouldn't listen.

When have the children ever realized that they were in the wrong before being in that position themselves? Since Nux was too young to realize it himself, Faustina didn't mind letting him live with his mentality for a little while before he finally understood her words and gave in.

"Lady Saphira..."

Suddenly, Aeliana called out.

"Hmm?"

Saphira turned towards Aeliana and frowned, the Vampire finally asked what had been bugging her this entire time,

"Is my father... same...?"

"What?"

"D-Does my father think the same way as you people...?"

What the Progenitors revealed was too shocking, even for Aeliana. However, unlike Nux and others, she couldn't just dismiss Progenitors since one of them was her father. A man she wanted to meet and spend her life with.

"Ugghh... don't make me recall that..." Hearing those words, Lilith groaned in annoyance.

She then glared at Nux and recalled how this human wasn't the first person to reject her advances.

Aeliana frowned in confusion, unable to understand why Lilith was acting like that, however, Saphira gave her the answer,

"He was not."

Both Nux and Aeliana turned towards Saphira and the Dragon Progenitor continued,

"Your Father's situation was... different from ours. All those years ago, we didn't have the leisure to think about insignificant things like these.

We were attacked.

And our situation was not good.

Our people were dying and we were losing.

Your father hadn't grown to the point we wanted him to be, so he was busy gathering strength while we were busy resisting the enemies.

Since we were all busy, we didn't have the time to indulge in those fruitless things.

Although I do believe that your father wouldn't have given in,

That man loved his wives, your mothers. Not to mention those women would have skinned him alive if he ever did that.

They were quite scary, you know?

They were almost as strong as the current me."

Saphira replied a small smile appeared on her face as she recalled memories from the past.

Then, however, a lost look appeared on her face.

"They were still quite foolish though..."

She commented and suddenly, a gloomy atmosphere fell over the place. All the Progenitors had similar looks on their faces as well.

They could still vividly remember the time that man 'broke' down.

"I understand..."

Aeliana nodded. She wanted to smile knowing that her father loved her mothers... however... thinking about the situation, she couldn't help but lower her head as her eyes turned moist.

Nux, who couldn't understand anything had a big frown on his face. His wives were the same, however, all of them could tell that this wasn't their place to speak up.

Vyriana on the other hand walked towards her friend to help her settle down.

The heavy atmosphere lasted for a while before Dagahra finally broke the long silence,

"Haah!? Why are you all acting like that? Just look at this guy's face, he doesn't understand shit!"

He laughed as he pointed at Nux.

Nux smiled awkwardly, he could tell that Dagahra was trying to use him to lift the mood, seeing how Vyriana seemed to care for the Vampire, he understood that she was someone important to her, so he didn't mind being used like that.

"He is the main character of the day, let's stop talking about the topics that would exclude him, okay?"

"I agree, but I will say, I am quite heartbroken after being rejected this harshly. I took a lot of guts to confess my feelings, you know?" Faustina pouted.

"Do you now understand how I feel?" Lilith jumped in as well. "I finally understand you, Sister." Faustina held Lilith's hands.

"..."

"..."

Nux had absolutely no clue how to react in this situation.

Caesar, however, was here to save him,

"So, Nux Leander, although I can see it myself, let me ask for the sake of formality,

Have you successfully absorbed my Blood? Do you feel any changes other than your appearance? Are you satisfied?"

All Progenitors instantly turned towards Nux with curious gazes.

Becoming the center of attention again, Nux glanced at his own hands for a while, and,

"I have successfully absorbed your Blood, Lord Caesar. I can clearly feel its strength and the potential it possesses, however, as to whether I am satisfied or not, I still cannot give you a specific answer, there are many things I would like to test before coming up with an answer."

"Heeeh? As you would expect from a monster who reached the 40th wave..."

Faustina chuckled, her eyes shining intensely as she observed Nux.

"Right? I didn't think there would be anyone who would want to 'test a few things' before saying if they are satisfied with a Progenitor's Blood."

Dagahra laughed out loud.

"Child, I really want to capture you and look into all the secrets you have."

Suddenly, Lilith spoke as she looked into Nux's eyes, her purple eyes shining intensely.

Soon, however, the intensity of the light in her eyes faded away, and,

"However, more than the secrets you hide, I am interested in the sense of challenge you give me.

Protect yourself as much as you can, child.

I will come for you and steal you from your wives."

"You are delusional."

Amaya's reply was instantaneous. She even ignored the fact that she was in front of the strongest beings in the world and retorted without thinking.

"Heh, we will know who is delusional soon enough, child."

Lilith replied as she then disappeared.

Darius glanced at Nux and his women before disappearing as well. Just like that, other Progenitors all disappeared one by one as well.

Caesar then stepped forward and,

"I have many things I wish to talk about, But I'll give you the time you need to get used to your new Bloodline.

I am looking forward to our next meeting, Nux Leander."

Caesar spoke with a smile as he and Faustina both disappeared as well, leaving only Nux, his wives, Vyriana and Aeliana.
