1296 My ability to heal you will never fail me.

"You are back."

Placing his queen on the bed, Nux sat next to her, gently held her hand, and spoke with a smile on his face.

"And you look breathtaking."

He spoke with a smile on his face. Evane smiled back as she blushed. Then, she suddenly fell down, her head on Nux's lap, and "I missed you." She spoke.

"I did as well."

Nux replied in a low voice as he started playing with Evane's blonde hair.

"Was the Trial difficult?" Nux questioned.

"It wasn't." Evane shook her head. The Elven Trials were based on Illusions and unlike the Demon Trial, where they made the Trial Taker 'live like they intend to', the Illusion inside the Trial Tower attacked the Trial Tacker's vulnerable mind.

While the Demon Trials showed one a possible future, the Elven Trials showed one the illusion related to the past, mostly related to the moments the trial taker often regretted and sometimes even dreaded. It tested one's mental strength and how calm one's mind is.

It was a torturous Trial, especially for someone who has lived a difficult life.

This was also the reason why somewhere in his heart, Nux didn't want Evane to take the Trial. After all, his Queen didn't exactly have an easy life. First, the brother she loved tried to kill her, later, she was the one who was forced to kill him, she then also proceeded to kill her second brother and her husband killed her father.

As someone who loved her family and was stupidly naïve, Nux knew that even to this day, Evane has nightmares related to her family.

If someone like her took the Elven Trial, Nux was one hundred percent sure that the Trial would definitely try to scratch these old wounds.

"It wasn't?" Nux raised his eyebrows.

"Mhm, I managed to pass all the levels, even the ones related to my family." Evane obviously knew what Nux was worried about, so she gave him the answer he needed.

"Then how were you eliminated?"

Nux questioned.

The biggest 'scar' that the Trial Tower could scratch in Evane's case was her family, if she was able to pass that, then nothing should have stopped her from getting the Primordial Blood, unless... "If the Trial was only about facing one's regrets in life, the number of Primordial Level Elves roaming around Yrniel would be in thousands."
