1357 You underestimate Lilith
"I a-"
Before Lane could even say a single word, her lips were sealed. In an instant, an embrace so tight yet comfortable took her in and her body melted into that embrace.
She forgot whatever she wanted to say and simply opened her mouth, allowing Nux's tongue to enter her mouth and their tongues started rolling over each other.
She could also feel Nux's hands caressing every part of her body, the desperation in his movements filled Lane with endless joy and worry at the same time.
Her thoughts, however, were very quickly pushed out of her mind as it was overwhelmed with different, hazier thoughts as Nux continued his assault, sending wave after wave of pleasure into her body.
It was only after 5 minutes had passed by did Nux finally stopped and left Lane alone, giving her space to breathe.
"I missed you~"
Nux spoke with a gentle smile on his face.
100 years was a long time, especially when he didn't see any of his wives during this time.
Seeing him acting like that, Vyriana couldn't help but frown,
"If he is like this in 100 years, how is he supposed to spend 10,000 years inside the Illusion?"
"He will have his wives there, won't he?"
Faustina replied, Vyriana however, just snorted as she shook her head.
"You think he will settle for mere illusions?"
The Dragon questioned.
As someone who had known Nux for a long time, she was 100% sure that he would never consider the women in the illusions as his wives.
Honestly, she even thought that Faustina, who had interacted with Nux for more than 100 years now, would expect the same from him. After all, even the Progenitor had seen that the man had something wrong in his head.
Faustina however, chuckled when she saw Vyriana react like that, then, she continued,
"You underestimate Lilith."
"What...?" The Dragon narrowed her eyes and Faustina continued,
"She is a Progenitor, Vyriana. You think the Illusion Nux will be going in would be mere altered memories?"
"What do you mean?"
Vyriana frowned.
"The Illusions people see in the Trials that are related to their lives, all of them are created through the memories of the Trial Taker, their deep subconscious, everything that happens, happens exactly like their subconscious wants or expects it to, this is also the reason the Illusion feel so real.
Trial Takers never see a flaw because there can be no 'flaw' in a world created by their subconscious.
This bit is already quite difficult to deal with for most people, for Lilith, however, this was something she could create with her eyes closed.
As for the Illusion Nux will be entering...
It won't just be a creation of his subconscious.
It would be a complex structure based on his own subconscious, his memories, Lilith's memories, and her understanding of the world."
"Lady Lilith's memories...?"
"Exactly, the Illusion would be based on the memories of a woman who has lived for millions of years. The world she would create would have no flaw, not just from Nux's perspective, but from every person living in Yrniel's perspective."
"What... does that mean?" Vyriana couldn't understand.
"It means that the beings he would interact with inside won't just be mere illusions, they will be real people, his wives, they will be real, any other women he meets, they will all be real, acting not like how Nux expects them to, but how they actually would.
The Illusion he is going in, rather than an illusion, it would be better to call it an alternate world, the world will be a completely real place, all the emotions, connections, and bonds Nux would form inside for 10,000 years would be real.
It would be much more immersive than what normal trailtakers go through.
Heck, 10,000 years inside that world, it wouldn't be a surprise if Nux's perception of reality is messed up, but well, you don't have to worry about that.
Even if something like that does happen, I will save him."
Faustina reassured, Vyriana however, was still stuck on one of the points Faustina mentioned before, "Even if Lady Lilith's memories are being used to create the illusion, how is it supposed to affect Nux? Lady Lilith has only known Nux for a few years and even then, the interaction between them wasn't enough for her to know anything about him, let alone his wives.
How would she cast an illusion so real when she barely knows anything about her target and the kind of life he has lived?"
"As I said, it is not just her memories, the illusion uses her understanding of the world, she is a Progenitor, one of the creators of lives, her connection with Yrniel's Will is much stronger than what you think.
And since Nux and his wives are all inhabitants of Yrniel, the Will of Yrniel will give Lilith enough information to form the Illusions. In other words, you can say that rather than Lilith forming the Illusion, it would be the Will of the World doing that, this is also the reason why the Illusion will be so strong."
"Does that mean Lady Lilith will be peeking into Nux's life using the Will of Yrniel?" Vyriana narrowed her eyes.
Faustina however, shook her head,
"She is not that strong, the Will of Yrniel would only affect the Illusion, not the reality, even Lilith wouldn't know what would happen inside the Illusion."
"..."
Vyriana turned silent as she then turned towards Nux, who was still busy with his... doing his thing... The Dragon narrowed her eyes as she saw the sight, however, knowing that it had been 100 years and witnessing how much Nux had held himself back in these 100 years, she allowed him to let loose a little.
Soon, her mind started thinking about Faustina's words and she couldn't help but frown.
Nux was not prepared.
She needed to do something about it.
She did think it was weird for a Progenitor to propose a bet despite the other party openly showing confidence in winning the bet with ease... A Progenitor never picked a losing battle.
This time, Nux might be in trouble.
