Chapter 1345 Solitudea??s End
1345 Solitude's End
"Heh, as I would expect from my son.
Giving up was never an option, was it?"
Faustina chuckled as she glanced at Nux with an amused look on her face.
Vyriana, on the other hand, narrowed her eyes,
"What are you doing here?"
"Spying on the two of you, of course. I felt like the two of you were hiding something and it turns out that you actually were!"
"How did you..." Vyriana couldn't understand.
"Come on, Dragon. You don't think we Progenitors are fools, do you? Someone as talented as Nux, who has been training with you for such a long time, is unable to form his Law yet, heck, let alone a Law, the man doesn't even comprehend his Path yet.
I wouldn't have found the entire thing odd thinking that you simply didn't teach him about Laws but then I noticed that the Sword Girl has already formed her Law.
Then there was the Shadow Demon, the Elf, and now even the new girl. Not only them, after meeting the rest of the women, I could also sense that quite a few of them are close to at least comprehending their Paths if not Laws.
You didn't think that I wouldn't find this odd, did you?
Your story about him being too versatile might work on the ignorant but don't expect to work on the people who taught you about the Laws."
Faustina chuckled.
"Of course, someone like me would have probably ignored it if Aeliana hadn't come to me. So if you wish to blame someone, blame the Vampire."
"Aeliana... knows...?"
Hearing those words, Faustina blinked a few times, her face showed utter confusion,
"You didn't think you would be able to fool her, did you?"
Vyriana narrowed her eyes while Faustina continued,
"There are not many people that girl trusts, Vyriana. Luckily, you are one of those few, that is the entire reason she didn't question you and simply nodded at whatever you said.
However, she couldn't just ignore her duty as the pseudo-leader of the Ancestral Order, she noticed something odd, and since it was related to the future General of the Human Race, she had to report it to me.
This is the reason why I came here in the first place, and since I am finally here, I believe it is time we solve the problem, no?"
"You know how to deal with the problem...?" Vyriana blinked in disbelief.
She was prideful, however, this didn't mean she was an ignorant fool who tried to deal with everything all on her own, not opening up to others and delaying Nux's progress.
The first person she went to with this problem was her Master.
Of course, while she didn't reveal that it was Nux who was facing this problem, the answer her Master gave her was not satisfactory.
'What if a cultivator cannot reach the Assimilation Stage no matter how hard he tries? I would say you stop bothering yourself with such a cultivator because that person lacks talent, even if he does form a Law, he would get stuck in later stages and all the efforts you put in would go to waste.'
'Hmm? What if he does have enough talent? What you are saying is contradictory, child. If that cultivator had enough talent, he would have reached the Assimilation Stage by now.'
These were the answers Saphira gave her, completely disregarding the problem. This was also the reason Vyriana didn't reveal this to anyone else and decided to find a solution on her own.
Now, however... Faustina was standing in front of her... saying that she had a way to solve the problem...
"Huh? When did I say that?" The Human Progenitor, however, shook her head.
"You just said that it is time to solve the problem." Vyriana frowned.
"Yes, I didn't say I had a solution. The very fact that the presence of Laws in a world doesn't affect his ability to Master techniques is odd enough, how am I supposed to know the solution to a problem I have never seen before? It is not my fault that he is an oddity.
When I said we should solve the problem, I meant that I will observe and find out the crux of the problem with you and the three of us will try to solve it."
"..."
Vyriana didn't know what to say.
Faustina, however, completely ignored the woman, then, she held grabbed the two of them and disappeared.
Nux blinked a few times as he noticed that he was in a completely different place.
"Solitude's End huh... it has been a while since I have been here."
Vyriana muttered as she looked around with a calm look on her face. There was a trace of nostalgia in her eyes as well. Nux however, was too busy looking around the place to notice it.
If Waranal seemed like a dull and gloomy place, this place was a level above, the sky hanging above was gloomy, shrouded in swirling mists, the land stretched out endlessly, with uneven cracks all over the place. In the name of vegetation, there were only a few dead plants that had already withered.
Nux stretched his senses far and wide, however, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't sense any living beasts, not even Star Beasts.
The air here seemed heavy and eerie, it felt as if this was the world of the dead where even seeing a ghost wouldn't be a surprise.
"What is this place?" Nux couldn't help but question.
"It is called the Solitude's End, the world that is pretty much abandoned by the universe, the presence of the Laws here is so extremely low, lowest of all the known worlds."
"Wait... if the presence of Laws is that low..."
"The time here flows 100 times faster than in Yrniel. 100 years here is merely a year in Yrniel." Faustina revealed and a big smile appeared on Nux's face.
"Then this place is practically a treasure trove!"
In an instant, the man turned towards Vyriana and,
"Why didn't you bring me here before? We could have trained here for a thousand years and only 10 years would pass in Yrniel!"
For someone like Nux who wasn't affected by the Presence of Laws in the world, a place like this was indeed a treasure trove, however, "This world is not conquered by our people, so there are chances that we might encounter otherworlderers here. This place is not safe, especially for training." Vyriana replied and hearing those words, Nux frowned, "Someone like you is worried that this place is not safe...?"
