“Sure Sure, I will be careful~
Don’t worry.”
Nux muttered with a small smile on his face.
Thyra looked at his face and couldn’t help but shake her head.
“You don’t look very ‘careful’ to me.”
“Hahaha~ Don’t worry~ Don’t Worry~
I will be fine~
Also, don’t I have you right beside me?
What could possibly go wrong?”
Nux muttered with a bright smile on his face.
Thyra looked at him and shook her head.
He was not being serious at all.
Thyra’s thoughts were contradicting.
She liked the fact that killing humans didn’t affect Nux as much as it used to. Of course, it didn’t mean he was completely unbothered by it.
She could sense that he was trying to hide it from her and was trying to act unbothered, however, even after that, Thyra knew that his condition was a lot lot better than before.
She was happy about it,
However, at the same time, she didn’t like that Nux was taking this too lightly.
They were in the middle of a War.
Any single mistake could get them killed.
Getting careless here was a grave mistake.
However, Thyra could understand Nux’s thoughts as well,
Right now, Nux is a lot stronger than the two Generals, who are fighting each other fiercely and were the main deciding factor of this War.
If Nux wanted, he could easily slay both of them at the same time without breaking a sweat.
He was just that strong.
He alone had the power to change the course of this war.
Not only that but the statement, ‘You must always be careful when you fight in a war’ wasn’t something Nux had to follow.
He had his absurd abilities.
His [Sense] would tell him every time someone aims at him.
His [Conceal] would allow him to disappear from everybody’s sight.
His Physique would allow him to release Devouring Mist and Kill every single being who is Grand Master Stage Cultivator or lesser.
His [Harem Gate] would allow him to teleport and leave this area whenever he wants.
With these absurd abilities, Nux was practically invincible.
Getting Carefree was only a natural reaction.
Also, Nux was right, she was here with him.
If everything comes down to it, she could always protect him.
Heck, if it is required, she would even use her life to save Nux’s.
Nux’s safety was practically guaranteed here.
Suddenly, Nux’s expression changed, Thyra understood what happened,
She activated [Sense] and scanned the entire battlefield. Soon, she noticed something strange and then, her eyes turned cold.
The man she was looking at was a Grand Master Stage Cultivator and was hiding behind a few Beginner Stage Soldiers, with how his feet were pointing at Nux, how his left hand was close to the place where he had kept a dagger, how he was looking at Nux every other few seconds, and how he was moving towards him slowly and steadily, his intentions were clear.
He was trying to take Nux by surprise and then pierce his dagger into Nux’s heart.
However,
Before he could even achieve his goal,
A dagger pierced his heart.
It was Nux’s dagger.
The Enemy Squad Leader died without even knowing what had happened.
Nux stood in front of his corpse.
Thyra smiled and walked toward him as well.
“You did well.”
She muttered.
“Thyra… I was thinking…” Suddenly, Nux muttered.
“What?” Thyra questioned.
“Isn’t finding and killing enemies a lot better than letting the opponents come towards us ‘weaker’ soldiers and then kill them?”
Nux questioned.
- “…”
Thyra looked at Nux and turned silent.
Then after thinking for a while, she nodded to herself.
“Just don’t overdo it.
You can’t have too high of a Kill Count, remember, you are just a ‘normal’ Expert Stage Cultivator.
Okay?”
Nux smiled and nodded his head.
“I know that of course.
Don’t worry,
I am not an Idiot.”
Nux smiled brightly.
Thyra, for some reason, didn’t like that smile on his face, however, in the end, she didn’t say anything and turned silent.
From then on,
Nux’s domination and enemy Master and Grand Master Stage Cultivators’ hunt started.
…
“Hahaha~ You are stronger than I thought, Fiery Killer!
A Prodigy who has High-Level Affinity with both Fire and Wind, fighting you was indeed eye-opening!
Hahaha~
I had a lot of fun.”
The Enemy General laughed loudly.
His clothes were a mess right now, there were many cuts all over his body and a serious wound on his lower abdomen, however, the man was still laughing loudly.
Ember, on the other hand, didn’t look much different from before except for the sweat on her forehead.
From her breathing, it was clear that she wasn’t much tired either.
However, there was still a solemn expression on her face.
Even though she was clearly winning, she could feel that something wasn’t right.
The Enemy General…
He was too carefree…
This was something that didn’t sit well with Ember.
Suddenly, a sad look appeared on the Enemy General’s face when he looked at his abdomen.
“Haahh… I wanted to fight you more, however, it feels like this is the farthest I can go… If I continue, I might not make out of this battle…”
Ember frowned.
“You are giving up?”
“Mhm, I am.
However, prepare yourself, Ember Windfall, we will fight again, and next time, I will defeat you.”
The General muttered and then, he stepped back.
Ember didn’t follow him either.
Actually, the reality was that she couldn’t follow him.
From the start, a King Level Cultivator wasn’t supposed to die in this battle.
You either win this battle or you run away, these were the only two options.
Of course, she could also try to follow him, however, she couldn’t leave her army here.
Also, she can’t go too deep into enemy territory, that was simply foolish.
Therefore, she could only stay there and announce,
“The Enemy General has fled,
This battle,
We have won!”
“YEAAAHHHHH!!”
Hearing her words, the two armies reacted differently.
The Solid Earth Kingdom soldiers started running away in panic and fear,
The Woods Dynasty Soldiers started slaughtering the soldiers running away and howling in excitement.
The Woods Dynasty’s Soldiers then occupied the Deathspike Fort, others started setting up tents for their superiors, the injured were treated and the ones who were tired just lay down on the ground.
The War had ended.
And the Winner was the Woods Dynasty.
Or that’s what everyone thought.
