Supreme Harem God System
chapter-1446

1446 Misery loved company.

"She was my Master, someone who taught me most of the things I know, someone who created the technique I use even now, and... The woman I deeply loved."

Nux answered as a nostalgic smile appeared on his face. Aeliana, who heard those words was surprised, soon however, a frown appeared on her face.

If Vyriana was someone he loved in his past life, then why would he avoid her like he di'Wait...'

Suddenly, Aeliana realized something.

"Then those women you protected in the Forgotten Continent..."

"All of them were my wives in my past life. They were women I could go to any lengths for. The only difference between Vyriana and them was that Vyriana hadn't accepted me as her husband back then."

A wry smile appeared on Nux's face as he shook his head,

"What could I even do? Defeating that crazy dragon was the only way to win her heart and... Defeating her was no easy task."

"I can see that..."

Aeliana muttered unconsciously.

Vyriana was indeed a monster, even she, who had lived for such a long time would have a hard time defeating her if she regressed her cultivation to Divine Stage. She might even lose.

Aeliana could also see how winning that woman's heart was only possible through defeating her. She would never give in to someone weaker than her and would probably kill the poor guy... that woman was obsessed with strength.

Everything Nux said checked out. His strange actions of secretly having countless experts protecting random women he never even had proper interactions made complete sense now.

However, there was still something Aeliana couldn't understand,

"Then why didn't you approach any of them...?"

The obsessive look that appeared on Nux's face when he talked about his wives and Vyriana wasn't something Aeliana missed, heck, it wasn't something anyone could miss. Just that look was enough to tell Aeliana just how deeply this man loved those women.

For him to not approach them even when his feelings were so strong...

"I... I have my own reasons for that..."

Nux stuttered...

The pain in his eyes, despite him trying to hide it, was something Aeliana noticed. Her disciple was hurt. Just thinking about it pierced his heart countless times.

Silence fell over the room, Nux currently replayed the time he spent together with his wives, Aeliana, on the other hand, continued to observe Nux and the changes in his expression.

She was worried about him, however, there was nothing she could do for him.

For the first time in a long while, Aeliana felt helpless.

"You wanted to know more about my relationship with my father, correct?"

Suddenly, Aeliana thought of a solution for this situation.

Misery loved company.

Since Nux seemed uneasy and hurt, Aeliana decided to share her own story. She had already decided to open up to her disciple anyway, so it didn't really matter. She had no way of cheering him up, so she decided to bring the mood even further down.

Nux glanced at Aeliana, not expecting her to say something like this, Aeliana, however, just smiled, before that smile on her face turned... weak.

"Truth be told, I don't even remember what that man looks like."

"What...?" Nux was surprised.

"I don't remember how long has it been since I have seen him, I only remember a tall blurry figure holding me, can't even recall the expression he had on his face when he carried me.

How could I?

I was a child who couldn't even walk on her own foot back them. Even standing straight up was a difficult task for me back then."

"The last time you saw your own father was when you couldn't even walk...?"

Nux couldn't believe what he was hearing.

He knew the man was lazy and barely appeared outside, but Aeliana was his own daughter!

How could one treat his own daughter in such a manner!?

"Do not blame him, Nux."

Aeliana, who could sense what Nux was thinking spoke with a weak expression on his face. Nux stared at his master, wanting her to continue the story.

This was something he didn't know.

Even Faustina never revealed these details because she didn't want Aeliana to be hurt. She specifically clarified that Aeliana was the only one who could talk about this and now that he got the chance to learn about it, Nux wouldn't miss it.

Honestly, if it was before, he wouldn't have cared.

He was the curious type who wanted to know everything, however, if one didn't wish to say anything, he wouldn't bother them.

Now, however, things were different.

Now, this didn't involve Aeliana Ruinous, an acquaintance, now, this involved his master, a woman he cared about.

"It was the time when both my mothers were alive. Again, I don't remember anything since I was still a child back then, however, according to what the Progenitors said to me, I was a child my Father, Azriel Ruinous and my two mothers, Luminia Ruinous and Ithania Ruinous loved deeply.

It was also the time Yrniel was at peace after a long time.

The Vampires, who had once lost their strength and status and were turned into slaves had now returned to their past glory, all seven races learned to cooperate with each other and Yrniel was growing faster than before.

According to the Progenitors, the progress the people of Yrniel displayed was so fast that they had even started the recruiting process. My father, with the help of Elven and Dwarven Progenitors, created a method for the Progenitors to share their own blood, or diluted form of their blood with others.

With this, even people of Yrniel, where the bloodlines of all seven races had fallen, could revive their bloodlines and continue to grow stronger.

This was a period of harmony and growth, it was also the time when I was born,

But...

Then they attacked."

"The otherworlderers..."

Nux narrowed his eyes.

"Yes." Aeliana nodded.

"It was a brutal battle, those people had gone all out. My father's strength was simply too high, they were afraid that he would grow even stronger and wanted to nip the bud before it got out of control.

However, they underestimated my father's strength.

The experts they sent to deal with Father were soon slaughtered, with those gone, the victory was almost assured, but..."

Aeliana clenched her fists as she thought about what happened next. After all, this was the moment that was responsible for changing what was supposed to be a perfect life for her.

"When Father returned after defeating his enemies, he realized that the Progenitors had lost.

The enemies were strong, only the Dragon Progenitors were holding them back and... Mothers had lost their lives."

Nux gulped when he heard those words, Aeliana, on the other hand, continued with her story, her crimson eyes shining with intense emotions, emotions she rarely showed before.

"Father's aura burst out, the aura was so strong that the enemies instantly sensed that their chances of victory were slim and retreated.

My father was strong, strong enough to face all the enemies alone if that was required, however... that strength came with a severe restriction.

A restriction that stopped him from killing the murderers of his wives and avenging them.

The battle ended with Yrniel's victory, but in that battle, Yrniel ended up losing its strongest being."

Aeliana stared at Nux and,

"Unable to bear the death of his wives, father decided to seal himself deep inside the Core of Yrniel, only bothering to wake up if Yrniel was in any sort of danger."

"So this is why..."

"Yes, that is the reason he doesn't show himself any longer," Aeliana answered.

"But to leave his daughter alone when she lost both her mothers...

Isn't that... cowardly...?"

Nux couldn't help but speak out loud. He didn't know how Aeliana would react to his words, however, as someone who had started to care about Aeliana, he couldn't help but find this situation ridiculous.

How could he abandon his daughter like this!?

Strongest man in the world!? Nux could only see a coward who sealed himself because he couldn't handle the pain.

"What would you have done?"

Suddenly, Nux heard Aeliana's question.

He turned and looked at her, the Vampire didn't seem offended by his words, she was just curious.

"What else? Take care of my daughter, make sure to give her the best life possible. A life where she lacks nothing!"

"And what about your wives? Are you just going to let it be? Especially when you think that the reason they died was because you didn't act fast enough?

How would you act if all your wives die because of you and the enemies roam freely?"

"...I will avenge them.

I would do anything in my power to avenge my wives, I would torture my enemies in ways that death would seem like a sweet release. Something they wish for but never receive.

I would torture those bastards for eternity, no matter how long it takes."

The look in Nux's eyes was horrifying.

Aeliana, however, wasn't intimidated, rather, she just chuckled,

"And what if...

You cannot do that?

What if no matter what you do, no matter how strong you get, you still can't avenge your wives?

What if you were forced to live with the fact that your wives died because of you and you still cannot avenge them?

How would you react then?"
