Chapter 1229 She is annoying.  

She is annoying.

"I understood what 'ability' the Human Blood gives me,"

Nux spoke as he glanced at Vyriana as if she was playing his game all along, Vyriana nodded and questioned,

"What is it?"

"Adaptability." Nux's answer was short.

"Lord Caesar was shouting the same word again and again. Your Blood already adapted to different Bloodlines inside your body, are you saying that is the only ability it has?"

Vyriana narrowed her eyes.

A Progenitor's Blood shouldn't be that useless, yes, the ability to merge all his Bloodlines into one was great, however, it was only great because the Blood was given to Nux. For others, this was absolutely useless since there was no monster who had 5 different Bloodlines in his body.

"No, the scope you are thinking is too small.

Inheriting the traits of my other Bloodlines was just one of its sides, the Blood's adaptability doesn't end there.

My body can adapt to changes as I battle."

"What...?" Vyriana and all the other women who were hearing Nux's words frowned in confusion.

"When I was fighting against all the Star Beasts before, I could feel my body improving as I continued to kill them. Rather than feeling tired, my body was adapting to how I was fighting. It was predicting what I needed the most and enhanced it.

I could feel the power behind my normal slashes increase as I continued to cut down those beasts.

However, when I was fighting you, rather than my strength, it was my reaction speed that was improving.

My body allows me to adapt and improve in the middle of the battle, giving me what I need the most during specific situations. My improved Regeneration in my fight against you was one example, three different regenerations, one from the Vampire Blood, one being my own ability and one from the Human Blood were working at the same time, this is why my Healing was able to help be take blows from you and...

My Regeneration hadn't stopped improving ever since I came here. It is already twice as effective as before."

"So you are saying that the longer you fight, the stronger you become. You improve in the middle of the battle and if you aren't stopped, you will continue to improve till you manage to overpower your opponent?"

"That is what I understood.

Human Blood doesn't help me overpower ridiculously strong opponents, or help me overpower numerous lower-level opponents, It helps me fight against opponents who are exactly as strong as me, and win."

"Wait, doesn't that mean if you continue to train with Lady Vyriana and if she continues to increase her level slowly, you will eventually be as strong as her?"

Amaya suggested. "You want me to use Vyriana as a whetstone to improve myself?" Nux tilted his head as he started thinking.

This could definitely be done, but then,

"Don't be foolish."

Aeliana was quick to interrupt.

"Becoming as strong as Vyriana when he is only a Semi Saint is simply not possible. Vyriana is a Divine Stage Cultivator, she is a different level of existence compared to Nux.

It is the same logic as to why Nux cannot resist the Law of Self of even the weakest Incomplete Divine Stage Cultivator.

You have to know that what you have inside you is a Progenitor's Blood, that does not mean you are an existence with a potential to be as strong as a Progenitor itself. Your Blood is still a level below a Progenitor's.

It is strong, however, it cannot bend the very Laws of Yrniel."

"But he can still get stronger, no?" Vyriana questioned.

"Even if he cannot be as strong as me, there is still an option to improve, no?"

A big smile appeared on Vyriana's face as she considered this possibility, Aeliana was about to nod in agreement, however,

"No..."

Nux shook his head, a frown appearing on his face.

"What do you mean?" Vyriana frowned.

"My healing is slowing down..."

Nux replied.

Everyone around him frowned,

"You cannot retain your improvements..."

Amaya realized.

"Then what the hell was your blood 'adapting' to?"

Vyriana snorted in annoyance.

"I think it makes sense."

Aeliana suddenly spoke up.

"He fought you for an hour and his regeneration speed doubled, this rate of improvement is simply too absurd, if it was permanent, it would ruin the balance, since, just like this girl said, anyone would use someone stronger as a whetstone to become an existence that cannot be defeated.

No matter how strong his Bloodline is, there is no way something like that is possible." "Then isn't the Human Bloodline useless?"

Vyriana questioned, however, Aeliana shook her head as she looked right into Nux's eyes and,

"I used to think that before, however...

I think I need to change the way I think.

I have a strong feeling that Human Adaptation is something much stronger than everyone believes it to be, I believe even the Human Progenitors haven't explored all its sides yet."

It was a bold statement, however, the one who was saying it was a woman who was closest to the Progenitors.

The Daughter of the strongest being in the entire universe.

Aeliana's words, although mere speculations, cannot be taken lightly.

"I am looking forward to what you are going to show me in the future, Nux Leander.

Other than your ability to use abilities of different Bloodlines."

Aeliana chuckled as she looked into Nux's eyes.

"..."

Nux didn't say anything, he had a wary look on his face, and seeing that, Vyriana stepped in,

"Didn't I tell you?

You can trust her."

"Wouldn't you have introduced her to me sooner if she could be trusted?"

Nux questioned and Vyriana just snorted,

"I didn't introduce her because she is annoying."

"Hey, that's so mean." Aeliana pouted.

Vyriana turned her head away, not wanting to comment any further.

Then, she glanced at Nux and with an earnest look on her face,

"As annoying as she is, you can rely on her if you ever encounter a situation. She will not betray you."

"Tsk, look at you, giving suggestions to your little boyfriend and making more connections for him."

Aeliana chuckled.

Hearing those words, a big smile appeared on Nux's face.

"Vyriana, I have a strong feeling that she isn't annoying at all. Rather, I believe Lady Aeliana is one of the most reasonable and perceptive people I would ever meet."

"Fufufu~ I appreciate the compliment." Aeliana smiled.

"Me too." Nux nodded.

He was starting to like this Vampire more and more.
