'My lovely wives.'
Nux called out.
'What happened?'
Amaya questioned, her voice looked a little tired, most probably because she and Evane were currently fighting against a 7 Star Wolf Type Beast, White Soul.
'I think we miscalculated.'
'Miscalculated what?'
Thyra questioned.
Her voice was particularly calm, meaning that either she had won her fight, or she hasn't found her target yet.
'The Star Beasts' power level.'
Nux replied.
'Yes, I agree.
These beasts are definitely stronger than I expected.'
Ember agreed.
'My spells are stronger than before, however, these beasts are way too different from the 6 Star Beasts, they are intelligent, and know how to aim at my weaknesses.'
Ember explained her situation.
'Indeed.
The one I am fighting is a freak as well, he goes on the defensive the moment Skyla is about to attack it,
If it wasn't for Lane's Earth Wall, we would have been critically injured 3 times.
And these 6 Star Beasts and below, who act like these beasts' subordinates aren't exactly easy to deal with either. They are weak, however, they keep harassing us, and just when we are about to deal a critical blow to them, the leader attacks us and gains our attention.'
Felberta analyzed the situation as well.
They all were well prepared, yes.
However, in the end, they only have 1 month to actually get used to the Mana here.
They have made drastic improvements in this past month, however, compared to these beasts who have been living in this situation for all their lives, they were definitely lacking.
'R-Right?
T-That was what I was t-talking about as well.
These beasts are strong,
A lot stronger than I expected.
Phew, I wish there was an easier way to defeat them.'
Nux replied and agreed to his wives as well.
However,
'Nux, be honest.
Why did you contact us?'
Amaya questioned with a serious look on her face.
She could sense that Nux was outright lying.
'It's nothing, trust me.'
Nux assured.
'Nothing my ass…'
Then suddenly, everyone heard Thyra's dumbfounded voice.
'You fucking monster…'
She called out.
'Thyra? What happened?'
Evane questioned.
'I wish I could show you what I am seeing…'
Thyra replied as she glanced at the scene in front of her with a dazed look on her face.
Nux was sitting on the body of a Black Colored Bear that had a Black Yellow colored horn on its forehead.
Thyra recognized that beast,
That was a 7 Star Bear Type Beast, Black Decker. That's not it, she also recognized other 8 beasts lying around as well. Just like the Black Decker, all of them were 7 Star Beasts as well.
Thyra realized that these were the 'main' beasts that Nux had killed.
As for around 20-30 beasts, which were stabbed by a purple-black spike that seemed to have come out of the ground, well, those should be the side beasts who tried to interfere in the battle and tried to 'harass' Nux.
"You… you monster, you killed all these beasts already? It has only been an hour."
Thyra questioned.
"W-Well… they were weaker than I thought."
"Do you even know how many have you killed in total?"
Thyra questioned.
"Around 20…?"
Nux replied.
"Don't lie.
I can see more than 20 lying here."
"Ah no, I am not counting the 6 Star Beasts or below."
"…"
"You killed… Twenty 7 Star Beasts…?"
"Mhm, I think I was a little too careful this time, 7 Star Beasts are a little too weak for me."
"Of course they are."
Thyra smiled with a wry look on her face.
Then, a frown appeared on her face and she questioned,
"Where are the rest of the Beasts? You stored their bodies already?"
"Well, I didn't get the chance to store their bodies."
"What do you mean?"
Thyra frowned.
Nux extended his hand, Black Colored Mist seeped out of his hand.
"You devoured them…"
Thyra realized.
"Indeed."
Nux nodded.
"The Mist has gotten stronger."
"What?"
Thyra narrowed her eyes.
"The Mist,
It has somehow gotten stronger than before.
It is Devouring 7 Star Beasts within 3 Seconds."
Thyra's eyes widened in horror.
"T-Three Seconds?"
Nux nodded with a smile on his face.
"That's why I am saying, 7 Star Beasts are too weak for me,
So I will be leaving all of them on you guys and will go for the 8 Star Beasts."
"A-Alright…"
Thyra nodded in understanding.
"Thyra, I think you should go now."
Suddenly, Nux spoke.
"Hmm?"
Thyra frowned.
"These Beasts are intelligent, being showy does help."
Nux chuckled.
"What are you talking about?"
Thyra couldn't understand.
"Don't use [Sense], use your Mana to sense the surrounding."
Nux suggested.
Thyra did what she was told and realized that they were about to be surrounded, by Fifty 7 Star Beasts no less.
However, after hearing Nux's words, Thyra knew that those Fifty 7 Star Beasts weren't the problem.
The real problem were the 2 Beasts walking behind these 50 Beasts.
"You got what you wanted."
Thyra smiled.
"Well, going to them was a pain, so I thought why don't I just attack the Beasts of their pack."
"Wait, you knew that the beasts you attack were in their pack?
But how? They are not even the same type of Beasts."
"Well, I wasn't exactly sure, but,
Their appearance here,
Doesn't that prove that I was right?"
Nux questioned.
"…"
Thyra didn't know what to say.
Nux chuckled, then, he stood up, moved behind Thyra, and picked her up like a princess. Thyra blushed due to the suddenness of the situation.
"Wha-?"
"Anyways, it is too late for you to run away now."
Nux, however, completely ignored her reaction, the ring on his finger shined, the Bodies of the dead Beasts disappeared.
The ground under Nux's feet turned Purplish and then, it rose up.
Thyra was a little shocked, however, since she was in Nux's arms, she stopped caring and just continued to look at Nux's face with a fixed smile on her face.
As for the Beasts,
Welp,
That's Nux's duty to protect his lovely wife from them.
