1447 I would love to know more about you as well, Master.

"And what if...

You cannot do that?

What if no matter what you do, no matter how strong you get, you still can't avenge your wives?

What if you were forced to live with the fact that your wives died because of you and you still cannot avenge them?

How would you react then?"

"I won't let such opportunity arise, there is always a way out, you just have to se-"

"You do not meet your wives in your current life, Nux. You actively avoid them and force yourself to not pursue them.

I do not know the reason behind your actions, but isn't your situation somewhat similar to my father's?

Aren't you helpless because of certain situations as well?"

Before Nux could even complete his sentence, Aeliana cut him off.

"..."

Nux had no answer against that retort.

His reason for not approaching his wives was different, they were not his real wives, however, this wasn't something he could reveal to Aeliana. Not that it mattered, what Aeliana said wasn't incorrect.

Despite him having reasons for his actions, in the end, even he was stuck in a situation where he could not meet his wives for 10,000 years.

Isn't that ridiculous?

A man who swore to be next to his wives all the time was now forced to stay away from them in order to pursue his goals.

'Fate is a bitch...'

Nux muttered in his head.

At the same time, he started sympathizing with the Vampire Progenitor. Even if he was the strongest existence in all of Yrniel, he still couldn't escape the Fate's cruel game.

The man, who should have everything at the palm of his hands, was nothing more than a broken shell who had lost everything... A man who couldn't even avenge his dead wives.

Thinking about such fate, Nux shuddered.

For a man like him, who valued his wives more than anything, imagining such a scenario was... terrifying. Goosebumps appeared all over his body as he placed himself in Azriel's shoes. Cold sweat drenched his back. There weren't many things in this world that he feared, but this... This was a fate that made him tremble nonstop and when he realized it, he glanced at Aeliana with an uncertain look on her face.

Aeliana, who saw that expression smiled wryly.
