Chapter 1179 I'll Come There To Help
1179 I'll Come There To Help
We can create any faction we desire to oppose the Dragon Lord, but we cannot receive your help.
This is your 'test'."
Astaria spoke and a big smile formed on Vyriana's face,
"I wish you luck, Disciple."
"..."
All the women turned silent.
To treat a War against the Dragons, one of the Strongest Races in Yrniel as a mere 'test'...
"How did you know about it?" Suddenly, Amaya questioned as she glanced at Nux.
"Hmm?"
Nux tilted his head.
"You would never put Skyla in harm's way knowingly, so the attack must have been a surprise for you as well, then how did you know that this all would be a 'test'?"
Amaya questioned, Nux's answer, however, was different than what she was expecting.
"Well... I just knew...?
I have known Vyriana for around 200 years, you know?
I know everything about her~"
"..."
Or maybe it was an answer that could be expected from Nux.
"Haaahh..."
In the end, Astaria sighed.
"How do we proceed from here?" She questioned.
"We need to gather allies. Facing the Dragon Lord alone is no different than suicide."
The other women nodded.
"The available options we have right now are the Vampires, Succubi, and Catkins. If we try to look into the History of Dragons and their enmity with other powers, there are a few Demon States and a few Beastmen Cities we can use, however..."
"It would be hard to actually get their support." Astaria completed Amaya's sentence.
Amaya nodded, "That is correct.
This is a War and with how the Dragon Lord is practically ignoring the Ancestral Order's rules, I can positively say that his anger has overshadowed his reasoning skills.
We are up against one of the strongest cultivators in the world, who rules over one of the strongest forces in the entire world, has lost his reasonings, and is willing to do whatever it takes to get what he wants, even abduction and possibly murder.
In a situation like this, the powers who would actually come forward to support us, a middle-level clan are... well, I doubt there would be any.
Most would simply sit back and observe how things go while some would even join the Dragon Lord to increase their favorability with him."
Amaya spoke and the others nodded in understanding.
This was the reason they were worried in the first place, they had no way to resist the Dragon Lord who had such a large influence all over Yrniel.
Buzz Buzz
While everyone was still thinking about all this, Melia's storage ring started shining. Everyone frowned, however, as Melia took out the Call Artifact that was buzzing,
"It is mother."
She spoke.
"Oh?" An interested look appeared on Vyriana's face.
"Pick it."
Amaya spoke.
Melia nodded and picked up her mother's call.
[Oh! It finally connected!] Ambrosia's surprised voice was heard.
"Mother." Melia greeted.
[You finally picked! I thought you would ignore my call for a while like you have been ignoring me.] Ambrosia's playful voice was heard.
"When did I ignore you, Mother?" Melia replied.
[Oh? When was the last time you met me? Hmmm?]
"It has only been a few days, Mother," Melia answered in a deadpan tone.
[See? It has been a few Days! Days! Your mother is getting old you know? You should spend more time with me.]
"..."
Melia didn't know what to say.
Nux chuckled as well, he could easily imagine what expression would be there on Ambrosia's face.
[Stop playing around, she must be worried as it is, don't trouble her any more than she already is and get to the main point.]
Another voice was heard through the Call Artifact.
It was Orpheus Bloodheart, Melia's father.
[Are you saying I am troubling my daughter? Melia, can you hear him? Tell him how wrong he is. Tell him how you are relieved to hear your lovely mother's voice.]
[Ambrosia, it is not time to be playing around. The Dragon Lord is not an opponent you can laugh about.
Melia must be worried.]
Orpheus spoke and suddenly, Ambrosia turned silent.
[Melia, are you alright?] She questioned.
"I am perfectly fine, mother," Melia replied.
[How do you plan to face the Dragon Lord?] Ambrosia questioned, not wanting to play around anymore.
"We are still trying to come up with a Plan."
[So you have not thought about anything yet?]
"We have not." Melia shook her head.
[...]
Ambrosia momentarily turned silent.
"..."
Melia didn't say anything either. She heard what her father had said, they called her for a reason, she wanted to listen to what that was.
[Tell Nux to open the Portal. I am coming to you.]
"Huh?" Melia was taken aback by the sudden request.
Not only her, Nux, and even Vyriana seemed to be surprised.
[What are you talking about?]
Orpheous's surprised voice was heard as well.
[Just like you said, she is up against the Dragon Lord and is there alone without even a single Divine Stage Cultivator to protect her.
Someone needs to be there in case of emergency and I believe I will be the best choice in case more than one opponent attacks.]
Ambrosia reasoned.
[They can live inside that mysterious Portal, Arcturus's subordinates won't reach them.]
[And we wouldn't be able to talk to them either! That Portal cuts away all the ways to contact them! That is also the reason we are unable to get to them for so long!] Ambrosia replied.
[...]
Orpheus turned silent.
Ambrosia was correct.
The only reason Nux and his wives were currently out of Core was because Vyriana was with them, once she leaves, they would return to Core as well, cutting their contact with the Outside world.
[I need to be there, I can also help them think of a strategy.]
Ambrosia spoke and Orpheus started considering her offer. In the end, not being able to go against his wife, he just sighed and,
[Please ask Nux to open a Portal, Melia. I believe your mother's presence will greatly ease your worries.] It was time for Ambrosia Bloodheart to come to her daughter's aide.
