Supreme Harem God System-Chapter 1932: Are you… giving up?

"It was given this name to respect a woman named Ithania Sky."

"Ithania…"

"My wife."

"Ithania Sky…"

Nux muttered, connecting the dots.

"So the Vampire Royal Family are your descendants?"

He questioned.

"All Vampires are my descendants, brat."

"You know that is not what I am talking about."

Nux replied, and once again, Azriel smiled at those words.

’He is smiling a lot.’

Nux nodded as he then narrowed his eyes.

’A little too much.’

He didn’t like this.

For some reason, he preferred his father-in-law to be that rude and arrogant man instead of… whatever this was.

"No, they are not my descendants."

Azriel shook his head. He then glanced at Aeliana and,

"She is my only true daughter."

"Then Lady Ithania…"

"No, not her descendants either."

Azriel shook his head.

"Lia is her only true daughter as well."

A small smile appeared on Aeliana’s face when she heard that.

"The Sky Castle was created by the founder of the Sky Family, one of Ithania’s most loyal and closest named subordinates, Valerian Sky."

"Valerian Sky…"

Aeliana muttered. She had heard of that name.

The ancestor of the Sky Family, one of the strongest Vampires in Yrniel.

"Heh."

Azriel suddenly laughed.

"To think that coward is now hailed as one of the founders of the Vampire Royal Family, how amusing~"

Nux frowned at those words.

Today, he realized that he truly didn’t like his father-in-law laughing. The more he did it, the stranger he felt.

"Well, he may be a coward, but that guy was quite loyal. His cowardice was also the reason why Ithania trusted him the most.

She knew he would survive compared to the other two, who would just foolishly run towards their death."

Azriel continued his story.

"You know, Aeliana takes after Ithania. Well, she takes after both her mothers, but the way she thinks things through and predicts what is going to happen is something Ithania was very good at.

She predicted Valerian would survive, and he did.

And…

She said the other two would rush to their own deaths… and that is what they did."

"…"

Nux was silent.

He wanted to know what his father-in-law was getting at.

Aeliana was the same.

"Honestly, with how reasonable she was, I expected her to… survive. Someone like her would never run to her own death."

Azriel spoke. Then, with his crimson eyes, he turned towards Nux and,

"Or maybe… she was expecting something?

Maybe she thought I would be able to save her?"

"Lord Azr-"

"Nux."

Before Nux could say anything, Azriel called out.

"What drives you to get stronger?"

He questioned.

"My wives."

Nux’s answer was instantaneous.

"You already have your wives."

"But I am not strong enough to protect them. I wish to become so strong that no one would dare to go against me or my wives."

"Why not just devour all your wives, live in your own universe, and never come out again? Nobody will know. Even if they do, locating your universe and actually being able to enter it will be next to impossible."

"That might have satisfied me before, not now."

Nux shrugged.

Azriel stared at him, waiting for him to explain.

"As exciting as living in my universe with my wives where no one bothers us sounds, that would make us… runaways."

Azriel’s expression changed, and Nux grinned.

"I do not wish to hide. I wish to become the strongest. I wish to roam around wherever I want with my wives without having to worry about anything."

"You are getting greedier."

Azriel commented.

"Well, that kinda has been my thing from the very beginning."

Nux shrugged, and Azriel nodded with a light smile on his face.

"You have no limits."

Azriel started.

"One day, you will become so strong that no one in the universe will be able to stop you."

Nux narrowed his eyes, not liking where this was going.

"You will become strong enough to do what that father of yours wants you to."

The Vampire Progenitor then stared at his son-in-law and,

"The Universe’s Will.

You are the only one who has the potential to devour it and become the Absolute God."

Azriel admitted.

He was praising his son-in-law and acknowledging his potential, but…

"Are you… giving up?"

Nux questioned directly, unable to believe what he just heard.

He still remembered how he and his father-in-law made a bet regarding who would reach the very top of the universe and devour its Will.

Heck, half of the reason he wanted to do this was because he wanted to prove himself in front of the man he respected.

But…

For Azriel to outright admit that he was the only one who had the potential to devour the Universe’s Will, did this mean he was… quitting their race?

Nux clenched his fists. He was…

Disappointed.

He didn’t know what it was. Honestly, he should have been happier considering he wouldn’t have to worry about competing with his father-in-law, but something inside him just didn’t like the sound of Azriel Ruinous quitting.

Was it because Azriel was his father-in-law?

No, that was not it.

It was something else.

Azriel was the man he respected?

No, it was not just a mere respect, Nux respected quite a few men but...

Azriel was the only one he truly looked up to.

All this while… Nux compared himself to him.

Yes, that was it.

Azriel was Nux’s idol.

He was a man Nux looked up to and wanted to be like.

He imagined his future self to be as arrogant as Azriel was. He wanted his future self to be… as absolute as his father-in-law was.

And to see his future self giving up like this…

It felt… gnawing.

But then,

"Promise me, Nux Leander."

Azriel called out.

"Huh?"

Nux frowned, looking at Azriel again.

"Promise me that you will reach your potential and become Absolute.

Then,

You will revive me."

"What…?"

Azriel then grinned and,

"If I fail, that is."

The Vampire’s grin then widened and,

"If I do not,

Then the race is still on, child.

I wish you luck."

"Wait-"

"Fathe-"

BOOOOOOOOOOM
