Chapter 649 Oi Oi, Stand Up, We Don’t Have All Day.

"Your cultivation…"

Astaria finally noticed,

A playful smile appeared on Nux's face as he replied.

"Our hard work bore fruit."

Astaria blushed.

"Pervert…"

AD

She muttered.

Then suddenly, she sat up.

"What happened?"

Nux questioned with a frown on his face.

By this time, Astaria's blush had already disappeared and her signature, a warrior-like confident smile had appeared on her face.

"We have to test how strong you have gotten, don't we?"

"Do we really need to do it right now?"

AD

Nux questioned with an awkward smile on his face.

"Huh? Of course, we do."

"But you should rest, your body is still tired."

"Tired my ass, you think I don't know what my body is like?"

Astaria replied with a confident look on her face as she quickly jumped out of the bed and stood up.

The battle intent she was emitting was intense.

All the women present inside the room were intimidated.

Even Ember, who is currently the strongest when it came to one on one battles was the same, however, Ember didn't care about it.

Her attention was on Nux.

She had noticed how unbothered Nux looked.

Not in a disrespectful way.

Neither was it his pride that forced him to keep a straight face.

AD

He was… genuinely unbothered…

Astaria's fierce battle intent…

He completely and utterly ignored it…

It was as if he wasn't even feeling it.

And of course, since Ember noticed something it, Astaria did as well.

A big smile appeared on her face.

A competition,

That was what she was looking for.

Nux's Mist was strong, however, he wouldn't use it against her no matter what she did,

Not being able to fight against him when he has gotten so strong…

It was frustrating,

Now, however, things were different, she could now fight against Nux, and she and Nux could now go all out.

With an excited smile on her face, Astaria started walking out of the room.

"C'mon, we don't have time to waste. Let's go."

She spoke.

The other women shook his head.

AD

Astaria was unsalvageable…

She has just had an intense session, her body should be tired, heck, she should even be a little sensitive…

But look at her…

There she was, ready to fight…

What a battle freak.

They all liked sparring as well, the feeling of getting stronger… it was addicting…

However, none of them were crazy enough to spar right after a lovely session.

The women glanced at Nux and seeing the wry smile on his face, they realized that even Nux didn't wish to spar.

'Well, she is still new… we can't expect her to know whatever Nux was thinking…'

AD

The women smiled inwardly.

All of them seemed to have same thoughts in their minds.

"C'mon, what are you waiting for, Nux? You aren't scare-"

As soon as Astaria opened the door, she paused.

"Nux…"

She called out.

The other women frowned as well.

What happened?

Why was Astaria acting like that?Please visit 𝙛𝑟𝘦ℯ𝘄e𝙗nov𝙚𝑙. 𝐜𝑜𝗺

They all wondered and then, Astaria finally questioned.

"What is he doing here?"

Astaria questioned as she pointed at Nawdren, who was lying on the floor breathing heavily.

"…"

Nux turned silent.

All the women in the room looked at him, waiting for his answer.

AD

"Well…

I thought you were sleeping…

So… I brought him…

Since I wanted to test a few things…"

Nux replied with an awkward smile on her face.

"So you brought him here in order to spar with him?"

Astaria questioned.

"That is correct."

Nux replied.

"…"

AD

The other women turned silent…

Nux had changed…

Was it because of Astaria?

They all wondered in their heads.

"Anyways, I am now awake.

So you don't have to worry find any replacement.

Spar with me."

Astaria spoke.

"…"

Nux however, didn't reply, and seeing that Astaria frowned,

AD

She realized it.

Nux was hesitating.

"What's the problem, Nux?"

She questioned as she narrowed her eyes.

"Nothing, you should just rest for a while, you are tired, don't worry, I will spar with you as soon as you wake up."

Nux replied with a gentle smile on his face.

Nux."

Astaria called out.

With a solemn look on her face, she questioned,

"What are you worried about? Answer me. Honestly."

Nux solemn look appeared on Nux's face and he replied.

"I still cannot control my strength yet."

"You are worried about hurting me?" Astaria furrowed her brows.

"…"

Nux glanced at Astaria and didn't say anything.

Astaira understood.

"You are afraid that you might accidentally kill me…"

Nux just smiled wryly.

No more words were needed, the women inside the room understood.

Astaria was right, Nux was actually scared of accidentally killing her.

All of them couldn't help but wonder how strong he had gotten…

"Heh."

Astaria smiled depressingly.

She still couldn't believe it.

To think there would be a day when someone would not spar her, not because he is afraid of her, but because he was afraid of accidentally killing her…

"I want to see your fight against Nawdren."

Astaria replied.

Seeing the expression on her face, Nux knew he couldn't say no right now.

"Alright…"

He agreed.

"I want to see it as well."

Ember stepped forward as well.

"I am coming as well."

Thyra nodded.

The other women followed as well.

Nux sighed and then, he smiled.

"Alright then. You are all welcome to witness the show."

He then turned towards Nawdren, who was still lying on the floor,

"Did you have enough rest?"

Nux questioned.

"What happened to him?"

Astaria questioned.

"I don't know, he has been acting like this since the moment I brought him here."

Nux shrugged.

"…"

Riona, who was currently resting in Amaya's arms glanced at Nux again.

This bastard…

He dragged Nawdren all the way from the Skadi's capital to the Neutral City, all of this at a crazy speed where it was hard to even keep their eyes open.

Nux carried her in his arms, her eyes were closed and even after all that, she still felt nauseous.

Nawdren… on the other hand…

"Haahh…"

For the first time in her life,

She actually felt pity for her enemy…

"Oi Oi, stand up, we don't have all day."
