1359 Law of Linked Lethality
"Law of Linked Lethality huh..."
Nux muttered as he stared at the naked cat girl lying on the floor. The space in this dimension was limited, therefore, none of the beds they had would fit in here. Of course, none of them cared about it right now.
Thyra was simply excited to be with Nux after she was done creating her Path and Nux, who was meeting his wives after 100 long years didn't care even if he was thrown on thousands of thorns.
"It is still not a Law yet."
Thyra replied.
"I understand that." Nux nodded.
It would become a Law eventually.
However, there was something Nux couldn't understand.
"Why didn't you use the power of your Path to become a Semi Saint?"
Unlike his other women, Thyra, even after forming her Path, was still a Great Sage. Nux would have understood if the Path she created was weak, however, that itself was highly unlikely.
Right now, all his women were forcefully suppressing their Cultivation Stage at Great Sage because Vyriana told them to. Therefore, all of them were at Peak Great Sage Stage and even a slight push was enough for them to break through. Thyra not breaking through to Semi Saint shouldn't be possible, unless... she encountered a problem.
A worried look appeared on Nux's face.
Since he had been dealing with a major problem for a long time now, he was worried that the same might be the case for his wives.
Thyra however, simply shook her head and smiled playfully,
"I have stopped cultivating for a long long time now, Nux. I cultivate through another method."
In an instant, Nux's expression changed.
This woman...
She was held back purposefully because she wanted to cultivate with him.
"Thyra, this is the Dimension Amaya created, along with Time flow, it also devours the Mana Flow, we cannot duel cultivate here," Nux explained the problem. Thyra, however, just laughed out loud and, "This one is my reward.
The Cultivation session will be continued later."
"You..."
Nux had no words.
He expected something like this from Allura or Edda, but Thyra...?
To think his always mature Thyra would act this spoiled.
Seeing his expression, Thyra's smile widened. Then, she extended her hands and placed them around his neck, "This time, I will have a valid reason to keep you with me."
Suddenly, Nux grabbed his assassin, pushing her close to him, and smiled as well, "Then you would have complete control over me, Master."
"Heh." Thyra laughed as she then placed her nose on Nux's.
The two of them closed their eyes, feeling each other's best.
"Also, Astaria and Amaya are monsters."
Suddenly, Thyra commented.
"What do you mean?" Nux tilted his head in confusion.
"The Laws they comprehended, the Absolutes, it is too difficult to form them. I tried to comprehend an Absolute Path, I even copied what Astaria did, my Path was clear to me a long time ago, I wanted to raise the Mastery Levels of my techniques to the Assimilation level to move further before strengthening my Law, however, it felt as if my progress had halted.
No matter what I did, I couldn't strengthen my Path any longer.
It was as if there was a big wall between me and Absolute and I have no clue how those two managed to break that wall.
Even if I understand Astaria's case since she was guided by Lady Vyriana from the very beginning, Amaya is... That woman is simply too monstrous.
Most of us took trials, however, where most of us only got a Bloodline out of it, that woman rejected the Bloodline and formed an Absolute instead, I still have no clue how she did it."
Thyra spoke and Nux couldn't help but raise his eyebrow,
"This is the first time I have seen you praise her."
"As hateful as that woman is, I have already respected her," Thyra replied.
"Her talent is nothing to scoff at. It is to the point where I sometimes feel inferior to her."
"You have no need to feel inferior here, Thyra," Nux spoke up. If it was any of his other wives saying something like this, he would have taken it seriously and tried to cheer them up, Thyra however...
"Especially when your Law allows you to kill literally anyone without even being next to them."
Yes, the woman who was complaining how her sisters were simply too monstrous had comprehended a Law that allowed her to kill her opponents from far away.
What the woman needed was a small 'connection'. Now whether that was a connection with an Artifact, a Weapon, or a Bond with another creature, Thyra's Law allowed her to use that connection and kill her enemies.
That means, if Thyra somehow found an Artifact connected to her enemy, her Law made it possible for her to kill the enemy by destroying the Artifact.
How absurd was that!?
Obviously there wouldn't be any Absolute for such a law!
That would mean that she is able to kill her enemy with 100% certainty!
She was facing resistance when she was trying to form the Absolute Law!? Of course she would face resistance!! The existence of her Law goes against the very concept of Assassination!
While Astaria, whose Law could injure him through his Clone, Thyra can pretty much kill him using the connection between him and his clone if such a Law was turned into an Absolute, the entire world would crumble in an instant.
"..."
Thyra just stared at Nux with an innocent look on his face. Nux smiled wryly.
"At the very least, you are able to form your Law, think about me." He spoke and in an instant, a solemn look appeared on Thyra's face.
"I formed my Path by recreating the Trial Tower."
She revealed.
"Recreating your Path? What do you mean?" Nux frowned in confusion.
"I replayed my entire life in my mind a few times, not just recalling the important events, even the times when I was doing nothing significant. I watched my entire life play out silently and, suddenly, three questions appeared in my mind.
The moment I got the answer to these questions was the time I knew what my Path was."
