1177 Wait for 157 Years.

"I like that answer, Nux Leander."

Aurelian spoke with a satisfied smile on her face, seeing her expression, Nux smiled inwardly as well. His words seemed to have worked, but then,

"However,"

Aurelian's expression changed,

"The next Human Trial will be open in 157 years, if you wish to take the Human Trials, you need to come after 157 years, before that, there is nothing I can do since opening a Trial for a single being is, well, a waste of resources."

The Empress shook her head.

"Especially considering your current scenario, with you up against the Dragon Lord, if I open the Human Trial for you, especially for you, that would give out an impression that I am siding with you and in a battle where I have already decided to stay neutral, I cannot give out an impression that may prove to be harmful for my people."

"..."

Nux stayed silent.

He could already see the look in Aurelian's eyes, that wasn't the look of a woman who could be convinced, no matter what he did. Plus, her reasoning made sense, since she had already decided to stay neutral, she would never do anything that would give a wrong impression.

'This is getting complicated...'

Nux muttered inwardly. Honestly, the current him was not strong enough to face a Divine Stage Cultivator, especially someone as strong as Arcturus. However, with him declaring war against the Dragon Continent, although he plans to avoid fighting till he is strong enough and plans to go for a long, dragged-out tactic, the fact that he could face a Divine Stage anytime was a life-threatening situation.

To deal with that, he needed a way out.

He needed to freely be able to use his cheat-like ability and for that, he needed to be able to use his Incubus Blood to the full extent.

How could he do it?
