Suddenly, Astaria glanced at Nawdren and questioned,
"Are you going to stop us from exploring the rest of the world as well?"
Yrniel…
To think they were only living on a small continent this whole time…
To think there is a world out there that is much bigger than they ever thought.
To think there are cultivation stages out there that are countless times stronger than Emperor Stage, the Stage they thought was the peak…
Astaria felt like a country bumpkin.
She felt… small…
But at the same time, she also felt her competitive spirit lighting up.
This rest of the World.
The rest of the Yrniel,
She had to explore it and she wasn't going to let anyone stop her.
However, if Nawdren was bound by contract, then she might have to fight him again,
"No."
Suddenly, Nawdren shook his head,
"I am not going to stop you."
"But the contract…" Astaria frowned.
"Why are you doing what you are doing?" Suddenly, Nux asked another question.
Nawdren turned towards him and Nux elaborated,
"The contract only told you to keep us away from the rest of the Yrniel, you or your family never interfered with our affairs,
Then why now?
Why are you suddenly acting out?
Why suddenly go after us?
Why suddenly try to rule over us?
And why are you not stopping us from exploring the rest of the world?
Do you not fear the Contract anymore?"
Nux asked a bunch of questions.
He felt that the answers to all his questions were somehow interrelated.
And he was right,
"The Blood Contract is annulled."
Nawdren replied.
"What do you mean?"
Nux narrowed his eyes.
He felt like there was something a lot deeper here.
"I do not know the specific details of the Contract, however, it was definitely not as simple as 'we stop you from exploring', it was much more complicated than that.
However, that contract is now annulled because I do not feel its energy anymore.
A Blood Contract cannot be annulled until the dominant party wants it to be annulled, in our case, the dominant party, that is the Ancestor, is already dead, so why the contract is annulled, I believe it has to do something with what the contract was in the first place.
I have a slight guess what the reason is and that guess is the reason why I am doing all this."
Nawdren explained.
"And what's that guess?"
"The Barrier is weakening."
"Huh? The Barrier?" Nux frowned.
"Yes. The Barrier that protects this continent from the rest of the Yrniel, for some reason, it is weakening." Nawdren repeated.
"Is… that not a bad thing?"
Nux questioned.
"It is… very bad.
If the people from the main continent come here, it would change the entire structure of this continent and the first to go down would be the 4 Nations.
I highly doubt even that Mist you have would be able to do anything."
Nawdren spoke and Nux's expression turned serious.
He wasn't alone, his wives, and even Astaria's face turned solemn.
"But all of this is just your hypothesis, correct? Do you have any proof that supports your statement?" Amaya questioned.
"None." Nawdren shook his head.
He didn't have any proof.
All of this was just his assumption.
Yes, he did all of this just because of an assumption.
However, Nawdren was not a fool,
"There is no other reason for the Blood Contract to be released."
"…"
Hearing those words, Amaya turned silent.
She didn't know much about the Blood Contract, neither did she know about the details of the contract signed between the Ancestor and the Beast…
But the Contract being annulled…
This was definitely not a good sign.
Not to mention… this woman…
Amaya suddenly turned towards Astaria.
She could see in this woman's expression.
Her Thirst for power.
Her Thirst for the Peak.
It was clear what Astaria Skyfall wanted.
Even if the beings from the rest of the Yrniel aren't coming here, this woman,
There is no one stopping this woman from going there.
And what's worse?
This woman was not alone.
Ember, Thyra, Skyla, and for some reason, even Edda…
All of them had a similar expression on their faces…
Amaya had already given in.
She knew what was going to happen.
They were going to visit this 'new' and 'bigger' world soon.
"Alright, let's end all this."
Suddenly, Ember spoke up. She was talking about the 'war'. It was time to conclude all of it.
"It is done already," Evane replied.
Ember frowned.
"The Solid Earth Soldiers are all on their knees and their storage rings have been taken away, they are not going to resist now," Evane explained.
"So what are we doing next?" Edda questioned.
"I was thinking of combining all the Nations under one Nation, this would stop the future wars, however, it will make management a lot more compl-"
"Do you really think I care about all that, dear Queen?" Edda questioned with a blank look on her face.
"Huh? But you are the one who ask-" Evane frowned, soon, however, she turned silent as she realized what she meant.
Having perverted thoughts at times like this, shameless indeed. She wondered how Edda can act so shamelessly.
Evane then quickly turned towards Nux, wanting his answer,
She wanted the first turn after all.
The other women had the same thoughts as well.
The 9 of them glanced at Nux with similar expressions on their faces.
Seeing this scenery, Nux smiled.
He then looked around,
A Battlefield where Emperors and beings stronger than Emperors fought… Most of the trees here were destroyed, Nux had unknowingly sucked the Life Force out of the Grass that was on the ground and it had turned completely brown. There were cracks on the ground with some burned marks here and there…
Seeing all this, Nux's smile turned perverted,
"Here?"
He questioned.
Edda was the first one to nod her head.
And as if he was already prepared for this before the war even began,
The ring on his finger shined and a big tent appeared in front of him,
"Alright, you guys,
We are a little busy,
I would appreciate it if you give us a little personnel space."
Nux smiled politely.
Suddenly, Astaria glanced at Nawdren and questioned,
"Are you going to stop us from exploring the rest of the world as well?"
