1112 Couldn't live without me, could you?
"These past 50 years, you must have understood your new self, your new strengths, and your new weaknesses. I believe you are already capable of deciding what skills or spells you wish to master from here on out and what direction are you going to pursue from now.
It you still find it hard to decide by yourself, you can come to me, we will be returning to Waranal and spending a year together, there, you will be sparring with me and I will then recommend you a skill or spell best suited for you.
Of course, this goes without saying but that process will be painful."
Vyriana smiled as she glanced at the women in front of her.
Three of those women stepped forward.
Felberta, Evane and Ember.
The three women glanced at Vyriana, the Dragon woman's smile widened, then, she turned towards the other women and, "Since you all have already decided, for the next 5 years and 8 months, you will be staying here and working on your skills and spells.
I will be returning to Waranal with them.
Also,"
Suddenly, Astaria took out 9 red colored gems and passed it to all the women staying here,
"These are a special type of Call tablets that can be connected to your consciousness, making it possible to activate them even when they are inside your storage rings.
According to my calculations, Nux would need 100 more years to complete his Battle Skill, so I need to be there with him till then.
According to the time difference between the two places, he and I would be staying there for 2 more months, and in these two months, you are required to connect your consciousness to these Call tablets, and the moment you sense the presence of other beings, even if it is just your intuition, use the tablet and call me, is that clear?"
Vyriana spoke and noticing her serious tone, Amaya frowned in confusion,
"Has something happened? Lady Vyriana seems especially cautious for some reason."
She questioned.
"I am just worried because you people are weak. If you encounter anyone, you will be squashed like a little bug."
"..."
All the women turned silent.
They wanted to retort but...
In front of a monster like Vyriana, they had no words.
"Anyways, connect your consciousness with these artifacts," Vyriana ordered.
The women did as they were ordered.
Vyriana nodded, then, she disappeared together with Felberta, Ember, and Evane.
For the next year, these 3 women will be under Vyriana's 'special' care.
Of course, a year in Waranal was barely 13 hours in Veiled Eden, so the three of them would be returning to Veiled Eden and joining their other sisters quite quickly.
Vyriana wasn't planning to go especially hard on them either.
In the past, she was bored. To relieve her boredom, she actively looked forward to training any adequately talented cultivator who asked for her guidance. It was a different thing that barely any cultivators were brave enough to do that, but the thing was, if it was previous Vyriana, she probably would have gone all out on these 3 'preys' standing in front of her.
Now, however, things were different.
Right now, Vyriana had already locked on a 'prey'.
A prey that was much more interesting than any other she could find.
In these past 50 years, seeing that boy's growth, Vyriana couldn't help but look forward to how further man will grow.
Will he... surpass her...?
If it was before, she would have shook her head in an instant, now, however, she hesitated.
Once Nux forms his Law of Self and enters the Divine Stage...
Vyriana wasn't 100% certain about defeating him.
And this is what excited her.
This uncertainty...
How many centuries had it been since she felt something like this?
Vyriana couldn't remember, not that it mattered.
The only thing that currently mattered was training that boy to the best of her abilities.
According to her calculations, Nux still needed around 10 more years to finally master his Battle Skill to the Small Achievement Stage.
After that, she can finally help him add his other abilities into it and complete the Battle Skill.
Vyriana could already tell how absurdly strong that Battle Skill would be, honestly, she still wasn't sure if creating such a Battle Skill was even possible and even if they did manage to complete the technique.
She wasn't sure that Nux could continue to train it, even after considering his absurd talent.
The path ahead was full of uncertainties, At any moment, they could encounter a situation that would force them to give up on the technique, completely ruining the work they had put in for the past few decades, not to mention how Nux would then need to spend decades just to remove the neuron pathways he had already created in his body and return to the state before he started his training.
Just thinking about how they would then need to work on a new, much weaker technique frustrated Vyriana, making her want to avoid that situation at all cost. She was only imagining the situation yet it was already so bad, just how worse would it be if it actually happened?
Vyriana wondered, soon however, she shook her head and stared at the three women.
The training started, Vyriana sparred with Felberta, Evane, and Ember together and then individually, then, she ordered them to spar with each other. She then gave them a few pointers to see how they adapted to her words and access their natural talents and their battle styles.
A year passed by in an instant, Vyriana soon concluded their training and gave a few Skills and Spells best suited for them.
Then, after giving them the advanced Call Tablet, she sent them to Veiled Eden to train those techniques.
Then, she released her senses, found Nux, and appeared next to him.
"You are back."
Nux spoke.
"Couldn't live without me, could you?
No need to be surprised,
I am quite irresistible, you see."
