1438 Question and Answers
"Why don't you start then, my dear Master?"
Nux spoke with a small smile on her face. Aeliana stared at the boy in front of her, seeing the confident look on her disciple's face, she couldn't help but feel... relieved.
He seems to have prepared these questions before she even captured her, it meant that he was prepared for this moment from the beginning, while that did bother her a little, to be honest, she was somewhat glad that Nux was prepared.
It meant that he had something up his sleeves, something that would prove that he was not an enemy. Of course, the fact that he lied in the first place was enough to tell that he had his secrets, but who didn't?
Aeliana didn't care.
She just didn't want to lose a worthy disciple she found, she could already see what a great addition to her forces Nux will be once he grows. She didn't wish to go against him there, therefore, she was looking forward to what the boy had to say for himself.
"Do you intend to harmin any way?"
Aeliana asked the first question.
"Harm Aeliana Ruinous? Is that even possible?"
"There are many ways one can harm others, Nux, physical harm isn't the only one." Aeliana narrowed her eyes. Despite this being the question Nux prepared himself, Aeliana wasn't satisfied with the answer.
A 'no' was what she was looking for.
Nux looked into his master's eyes and smiled, then, he continued,
"I do not wish to harm you, Aeliana Ruinous. Rather, I only wish the best for you, I wish that you achieve everything you want in your life and be happy. With how much you have done for others till now, you deserve nothing but happiness."
Nux spoke and seeing that the Amulet didn't react, Aeliana knew that he wasn't lying. Inwardly, a small smile appeared on her face. She was glad. Feeling her disciple's sincere emotions made her happy. For sreason, her reaction to those words was stronger than she expected.
"Moving to the next question, do you intend to harm Yrniel or the Ancestral Order in any way?"
"There are people I love living in Yrniel and Ancestral Order, those people will be sad if I turn my back to these places without any reason and seeing those people sad is the last thing I want.
So no, I do not wish or intend to harm Yrniel or the Ancestral Order in any way."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNux answered, and once again, the Amulet did react.
Aeliana nodded.
"Would you consider yourself to be Yrniel's enemy, can you think of a situation where you will becYrniel's enemy?"
"I wrote that?" Nux raised his eyebrow.
"You did." Aeliana nodded with a light smile, Nux just sighed.
"I don't consider myself Yrniel's enemy, as for a situation where the entire Yrniel would becmy enemy... That could only happen if people I love are someone harmed because of Yrniel. Of course, since Yrniel is a big place with countless people, all those people representing one single stance is quite difficult.
The enemy would most likely be a certain group of people, not the entire Yrniel, but yes, the situation where I would becYrniel's enemy would be if the people I love are hurt."
Nux answered and Aeliana nodded silently, satisfied by the answer.
"Will you help Yrniel when it is needed in the future, or would you abandon it for your safety?"
She proceeded with the next question.
"I am glad you chose this one."
Nux smiled, then, as he looked into Aeliana's eyes, he answered,
"If my help can change the final outcome, I will help, but I do not plan to recklessly sacrifice my life for Yrniel's sake.
If I sense that I or the people I love are in danger, we will run away and prioritise our safety.
Of course, we will continue to get stronger and once we do, we will avenge Yrniel."
Once again, the Amulet didn't shine. Nux's answer, however, wasn't the most ideal one either. Something Aeliana didn't mind. She didn't expect s45-year-old who wasn't especially connected to one place to have a 'die to it' loyalty for it.
She wasn't idealistic.
It was already established that Nux wasn't an enemy, which was indeed the truth. There was no need to ask these questions then.
Aeliana went through the questions list and smiled, there was even a question asking how was Nux able to defeat his enemies in such a dominant manner even though they were all Emperors.
Aeliana could already imagine Nux smiling annoyingly when she asks this question, and to think that this man wrote these questions before all of this even happened.
'He was planning to create that mess from the beginning.'
The Vampire realized.
The Host's attitude never mattered, it just gave Nux a more 'valid reason' to do what he did.
Thinking about it, Aeliana just chuckled inwardly, then, the paper in her hand suddenly crumbled into pieces before disappearing out of existence.
"I will be asking my own questions now." Seeing Nux frown, Aeliana spoke.
"That was not what we decid-" Nux narrowed his eyes but before he could even complete his sentence, "You don't have to answer my questions if you do not want to, I already got all the answers I, as the Leader of the Ancestral Order needed.
Now, I just wish to know more about my disciple, as your Master."
The sincere look that shone in her eyes took Nux back, once again, he realized that he was indeed in the 'real' world. He could never imagine such a look on Aeliana's face in real life because, before this, he never saw it.
After all, he wasn't exactly close to Aeliana.
"Alright."
Nux nodded.
Since he had the freedom to not answer the question if he didn't want to, there was no problem in proceeding forward.
"What do you think of me?" Aeliana questioned.
Nux stared at the Vampire for a while, as if she was thinking of an answer, he closed his eyes, even considering what he already knew about the Vampire from his previous life, then, he cup with an honest answer, "Someone I can trust."
He replied and the Amulet didn't move.
Aeliana raised her eyebrow when she heard those words.
"You trust me...?" She seemed surprised.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Well, there are sthings I cannot tell you, but other than that, I know I can entrust you." Nux answered, then, with a smile on his face, "Of course, as my Master, it is your duty to protect your student anyway."
"Right." Aeliana chuckled as well.
Then suddenly, a solemn look appeared on her face and,
"I noticed you mention the people you love quite a lot, who are they? From what I know from my investigations, you weren't particularly close to a lot of people. Are these the people you secretly protected? You went as far as enslaving the entire continent and ordered your slaves to secretly protect them without them knowing anything."
"Your investigation is quite thorough."
Nux muttered.
He knew it wasn't difficult to do it, Slave Seal wasn't omnipotent, heck, even Vyriana could get the answers she wanted through his slaves, what was stopping Aeliana, the Leader of the Order?
"I have my ways." Aeliana smiled lightly.
"Well, since you already know the answer, why even bother asking."
Nux knew he couldn't hide it anyway, so he just shrugged helplessly.
This, however, made Aeliana frown,
"But why would you do that? Those people barely know you, sof them don't even who don't even know you. Why would you go so far for them? Even if it was love at one side, with your looks, power and talent, you should have no problem approaching them and making them yours then... why are you not making any moves?"
She questioned, clearly, she had looked into his wives' memories, something he didn't like one bit but could he do anything about it?
Of course not.
Aeliana was strong. The Strong could do anything and the weak couldn't resist.
The Vampire had already admitted to investigating his past, for her, looking into the people close to him was included in that.
When Yrniel's security is under question, she doesn't consider many things.
"I... have my reasons I cannot reveal."
This time, however, Nux didn't give a direct answer. There was a strange expression on his face.
A distant expression that Aeliana hadn't seen before.
And this made her realize something,
This expression, it wasn't something she had never seen before, she had seen it, in Nux's loved one's memories... And this realization made her frown in confusion.
Why would... he act distant with the people he loved...?
