Chapter 1657 Your husband?
Chapter 1657 Your husband?
Hope that arose the moment they saw her hesitation.
These beings may be weak, but they were perspective, even if they couldn\'t hear what Nux and the others were talking about, they could still very well understand what Evane\'s expression meant.
These beings continued to stare at Evane, their eyes misty, some even put their children in front of them, as if they were trying to show them off in front of Evane, trying to further appeal to her.
Evane\'s eyes flickered.
Then, she slowly turned towards Nux and,
"We should kill them as painlessly as possible."
It would have been different if it was possible to save them in one way or another, but if the only way to let them live was to not devour their world...
Then it was a choice between Nux and his goals and saving people she didn\'t even know.
The answer wasn\'t difficult, especially for someone like Evane, who, when it came to Nux, wasn\'t very different from her sisters.
Yes, even the usually kind and helpful elf had a very dark side to her, a side only Nux knew.
"Of course."
Nux nodded.
He was no demon, he had no intention of torturing people without any reason.
"Their body wouldn\'t be able to take the toll of their cultivation bridge collapsing and they would die that instant. Let alone feeling pain, they wouldn\'t even realize what happened to them."
Evane nodded back.
"They will make a last-ditch effort to save their world and come at us, I wouldn\'t be able to respond when that happens, so you all need to guard me."
Nux spoke.
"The moment they come at you, they are no longer \'innocent beings\', they will be enemies." Evane declared. Taking out her sword as she glanced at the people.
It was that moment when these beings realized it.
Their last straw of hope had turned her back on them as well.
Nux closed his eyes and a ridiculously strong pressure descended onto the world.
"You should already know what to do,
Your fate is inevitable.
Nux spoke.
He was talking to the World.
And just as he expected, soon, the World\'s Core appeared right in front of him. The World had given up. It accepted its defeat, it already knew it wasn\'t going to win. The Black Hole reacted just like it did before, and once again, Nux let it take over. "The moment the Universe reacts, you all will enter my shadow.
Shadow, I will leave this up to you, drag them all inside, forcefully if you have to."
"Of course! They would have no option! Trust me!"
Shadow Lane spoke with a cheerful smile on her face.
Nux nodded Ithe next moment, Black Mist surrounded the
nd,
*Thunder* *Thunder*
*Rumble* *Rumble*
The world trembled in fear.
"Attack them!! Give it your all! For our children!!!"
"FOR OUR CHILDREN!!"
And just as Nux expected, the moment these people realized their end was near, even the weak mortals picked their weapons and rushed towards them.
Of course, all of that was pointless.
Felberta waved her hand, the Power of Genesis worked, creating countless walls in front of those people rushing at them. Walls they couldn\'t break with their meagre power.
"Feels like we are bullying the weak."
Felberta commented.
"Well, we are doing just that, Evane replied.
"Not that it matters." Felberta shrugged.
The women stood right in front of Nux, not caring about anything. The Walls Felberta summoned were more than enough to take care of those people.
"So when\'s the Universe going to attack?" Felberta questioned with a curious look on her
face.
She wasn\'t present when Nux devoured the previous world, so she didn\'t know when exactly everything would happen.
She expected Lane to answer her question, however, when she turned towards the Shadow Demon, she saw her standing with a deep frown on her face.
"Lane?"
Felberta called out.
"It should have reacted already."
Lane answered.
"What?"
"Last time it reacted right after the World did. Nux has already begun devouring the World, the Universe should be extremely right now."
"Then why..."
Felberta\'s frown deepened.
"I do not know."
Lane shook her head.
"Heh."
The women had grave expressions on their faces, they didn\'t like how the Universe wasn\'t reacting according to their expectations. Shadow Lane, on the other hand, just
laughed out loud.
Unlike others, she didn\'t seem worried at all.
"It knows that everything it does is useless, so it must have given up."
"What...?"
The women frowned.
"What? Why are you so confused? It already tried to attack him before, didn\'t it? Why
would it try to do the same thing again if it didn\'t work the first time? As for trying
something else, does it even have any other option?
It cannot even sense Nux\'s presence, how is it supposed to do anything?
It is completely helpless, just like the World we are devouring.
Didn\'t it show its Core without showing any resistance?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The Universe is the same, it is allowing Nux to devour the World without showing any resistance because it knows there is nothing it can do."
The women silently glanced at each other.
They all wanted to counter Shadow\'s words but no matter how hard they thought, they
couldn\'t come up with a way to refute her words.
What Shadow said made complete sense.
An entire World gave in when it was helpless, so why would it be shocking if the
Universe does the same?
Why bother using energy and causing havoc all over the place, even to different, completely unrelated worlds, when it already knows nothing\'s going to happen? The World and the Universe\'s Will may not be as intelligent as a complete living being, but they were definitely sentient, they knew how to make decisions, decisions that would benefit them in the long run.
In this case, the benefit being that the Universe wouldn\'t have to spend energy without
any reason.
"Heh, my husband is so great that even the Universe has no choice but to give in when
standing against him."
Shadow Lane declared with a big smile on her face.
"Your husband?"
Felberta raised her eyebrow.
"Hmm? Why are you looking at me like that?"
Shadow Lane frowned in confusion.
"When did Nux become your husband?"
"I am Lane, of course he is m-"
"You are Lane\'s Shadow. Felberta countered.
A counter that didn\'t work against Shadow Lane one bit.
"Yes, exactly. I am Lane\'s Shadow. I am part of Lane.
Every part of Lane belongs to her husband, I, belong to her husband.
And just like that, her husband, belongs to me."
Shadow Lane spoke as if it was the most obvious thing in the world and Felberta turned
silent.
Once again, she couldn\'t refute the woman\'s words.
Momentarily, the first wife turned towards Lane, who was standing right next to Nux in
silence.
\'Was Lane\'s inner self this good at talking back?"
Felberta couldn\'t help but wonder.
Just what did this woman normally think about while the rest of them always went at
each other?
Of course, it was a question no one but Lane would have an answer to.
"Be prepared."
Suddenly, Lane, who had been silent all this while, spoke.
Felberta frowned, but then,
"AAAAAGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!"
Nux screamed in agony.
*Crack* *Crack*
At the same time, cracks appeared all over the World Core and the ground itself.
"Enter his Shadow."
Lane spoke as she entered Nux\'s Shadow.
Felberta hesitated, seeing Nux screaming in agony, she didn\'t wish to leave her side but
suddenly, she noticed a sort of tentacle coming out of Nux\'s Shadow, pulling her inside
without giving her any moment to resist.
"That was easier than expected. Shadow Lane\'s voice was heard.
Yes, the woman was already doing what she was told, not giving anyone any chance to
resist.
The Shadow then glanced at Evane,
"I am sure you know what to do, correct?"
She smiled. Evane nodded hurriedly and jumped into Nux\'s shadow. She had no wish to be grabbed
by those strange-looking ropes and forcefully pushed in.
Once all the women were inside, Shadow Lane followed.
*Crack* *Crack* *Crack*
The cracks widened and then, both, the World and the World\'s Core disappeared,
Nux\'s body, which was surrounded with Universal Energy, now continued to float in the
Outer Space, unconscious.
Yes, once again, his brain was forced to shut in because of the large amount of information that just rushed in. Even now, his brain couldn\'t register all of it and once again, he, in his subconsciousness, saw the same scene again.
This time, watching the predetermined history of this new World he devoured and how it was supposed to last much longer than this.
15 years passed by in an instant, Nux opened his eyes, slowly adjusting to his body, which
had strengthened once again.
As he looked around, he noticed that while he continued to drift in space, his body had
come to this place covered with asteroids of different sizes.
Nux raised his eyebrow, taken aback by how beautiful this scenery was. "Girls..."
He called them out.
One by one, the women came out.
Then suddenly, Nux\'s instincts warned him of the danger.
However, it was already too late.
The moment Lane came out,
As the only being the Universe could sense,
And the only being who was always, always together with the anomaly,
She was targeted.
"LANE!!!!"
