Chapter 1326 I am Lane!!
1326 I am Lane!!
"Does that mean that if I die..."
"I will die with you."
Lane revealed as she lowered her head, not looking into Nux's eyes.
Obviously, as Nux's shadow, she perfectly understood how much nux hated when he realized Evane's life was now dependent on him since she was forced to heal him putting her life on the line.
He considered it as exchanging their lives and hated the concept from the depth of his heart, this time, however, she had taken this a step further by forming her Law.
Rather than exchanging their lives, she directly connected hers with his, in Evane's case, at the very least, the woman could completely revive him once before she was forced to use her life.
If they ever encountered an enemy strong enough to kill them, Evane could use her powers, revive Nux and all of them could run away, her case, however, was worse.
There was no second chance in her law, the moment Nux dies, as his shadow, she would perish as well, regardless of whether she was directly affected by the attack or not.
"N-Nux..."
Lane called out with a nervous look on her face, she knew he was angry, however, she just couldn't take Nux staring at her with those eyes anymore.
She actually wanted to talk about the advantages her Law had,
How she now had endless lives.
How she could now act like a perfect scout in any situation since she was pretty much an immortal.
How she could meet him whenever she wanted.
But of course, Lane was smart enough to not say any of that out loud. All of this was enough to entice her, but Nux, he would only hate himself even more if he heard that.
After all, unlike Lane, who wanted nothing more than to be with Nux and be able to help him in any way possible, Nux simply wanted his wives to live a comfortable life, the only reason he was working this hard for everything, even enduring Vyriana's cruel training was to create a perfect paradise for him and his wives... And then one of his wives come at him saying her life was now connected with his... "Lane..."
In the end, Nux called out.
Even if he wanted to, he couldn't just stay mad at his Lane when she was looking at him with such a guilty look on her face.
Lane saw her chance and quickly buried her face into Nux's chest. In the end, Nux couldn't help but sigh as he then started ruffling Lane's hair.
And the Dragon, who was watching all this couldn't help but frown, "The fuck are you two acting like this for?"
She had spent enough time with these crazy people to understand most of their dynamics, this time, however, she couldn't understand why the pervert was acting like this.
"...her life is now connected to mine," Nux answered.
"Isn't that a good thing?" Vyriana questioned.
"How is that a good thing?"
"Do you not want her to live longer? She pretty much has infinite lives now as long as you are alive."
"That's the problem, as long as I am alive, if something happens to m-"
Nux wanted to counter, however,
"You think any of your wives are capable enough to resist something or someone that is strong enough to kill you?" Vyriana interrupted.
Nux narrowed his eyes and the Dragon continued,
"Why the hell are you acting like the entire world has turned around? Shouldn't you be glad instead? The girl successfully comprehended a Law. A Law which, even though it is not an Absolute, is absurdly strong nonetheless.
Just think about this from a logical point of view, who amongst the two of you have the higher chances of dying in the universe?
You, who have countless ways to run away from your enemies be it your Vampire Mist Form, Shadow Demon Shadow Form, your Portals, your ability to teleport, your ability to vanish and hide your presence, and countless other bizarre abilities, or her, who can barely have her Shadow Form holding the fort?
Sure, she might be stronger than the average cultivator of Yrniel, but compared to a monster like you, obviously her chances of surviving out there are much lower. Her connecting her life with yours is a much smarter decision if you think about it.
Not to mention you now have the Elf ready to revive you even if something unfortunate happens, meaning she would now be able to revive her as well."
Vyriana spoke, then, looking at the man in front of her, she snorted, "Rather than acting all disappointed, you should praise the girl instead, she did a good job."
"Exactly. You should praise us instead."
Suddenly, Nux heard another voice and he narrowed his eyes.
He recognized the voice in an instant, it was the voice of the woman who was currently in his arms, the tone of that voice however... "You..."
Nux spoke as he looked below, observing Lane's shadow.
"Aha! You recognized me!"
Shadow Lane spoke. Nux couldn't see her expression since she was only a shadow, however, if she did have a physical form, Nux guessed that she would currently have a big smile on her face.
The tone of her voice, however, soon changed as if she realized something, "Well, it is obvious that you would recognize me... I am your wife after all."
"..."
Nux narrowed his eyes.
"Why that expression?"
The Shadow Lane questioned.
"Wait... do you not see me as your wife!?"
The Shadow questioned as if she had received the biggest shock in the world.
"Lane is my wife."
"I am Lane!"
The Shadow shouted.
Nux raised his eyes in doubt, looking at the shadow with an 'I don't believe you in the slightest' look on his face.
The Shadow Lane stuttered,
"W-Well, I am not exactly Lane...
I am more like her alter ego, but I am still Lane nonetheless!
I am the side she hides from the rest of the world!
I am her confident, her bolder side!
I am Lane!!"
