1489 How are you going to help?
"Are there still no answers yet?"
Lazarus Bloodheart questioned with a grim look on his face as he glanced at his parents.
"..."
"..."
Ambrosia and Orpheus were silent.
Lazarus understood what their silence met and his face turned solemn.
Orpheus and Ambrosia stared at their son in silence, they wanted to say something that would help him calm down, but the situation was so tricky that they didn't dare comment rashly.
The only thing they could do was to continue bothering Alaric and somehow get some answers.
"I will take my leave."
Lazarus spoke as he then started walking away, but suddenly, a portal appeared in front of him.
A heavy pressure descended all over the place, the pressure so strong that all the strong Cultivators in the Bloodheart Family were alerted and quickly rushed towards Orpheus's room.
Orpheus and the others, however, weren't alarmed.
They recognized this portal well, sure, the pressure was intimidating, but it wasn't threatening.
And as soon as a woman stepped out of the portal, the intimidating pressure disappeared as if it never existed, and smiles appeared on everyone's faces.
"Melia!"
Ambrosia was the first woman who rushed towards her daughter and hugged her.
"Mother." Melia smiled.
Being embraced by her mother after so many years was certainly a comforting feeling.
While she relished the comforting feeling, Ambrosia and Orpheus continued to observe their daughter and couldn't help but be surprised, "You are a Divine..." Orpheus commented.
"And not a normal Divine either."
Ambrosia added.
As strong Divine Stage Cultivators, they both could sense just how terrifying the girl in front of them was.
The feeling she gave...
It didn't fall short compared to the first time Vyriana appeared.
Both Ambrosia and Orpheus easily realized that even if all the Divine Stage Cultivators in the entire Blood Kingdom came together, Melia would be able to suppress them with just her aura alone.
She had reached a level they couldn't even imagine right now.
Melia, who was being observed by her mother and father smiled. She couldn't help but feel embarrassed when she saw how her parents were praising her.
What child didn't want to make their parents proud?
Being able to achieve that dream and surpassing them made her feel embarrassed and proud at the same time.
"Hahaha~
Look at her acting all embarrassed, is this girl truly my daughter? What happened to the always stoic child who was a stiff stick like her father? Is your father's bad influence on you finally fading away?"
"Bad influence?" Orpheus narrowed his eyes when he heard those words.
Ambrosia just chuckled, not taking her words back.
Seeing them act like this, Melia laughed as well but suddenly, she noticed her brother standing away, looking at her with a small smile on his face.
"Melia."
Lazarus smiled when he saw his sister staring at him and in an instant, Melia narrowed her eyes.
"What's wrong?"
She questioned as she glanced at Ambrosia.
Her brother was worried about something, no matter how hard Lazarus tried to hide it with his smile, fooling Melia, who knew almost everything about her brother was simply impossible.
Ambrosia stared at her daughter and realized that lying here wouldn't solve anything. Melia was a part of their family as well, not to mention she was close to her sisters-in-law, it would be wrong to exclude her from this.
"It is about Esme and Claudia."
Ambrosia spoke with a worried look on her face.
Melia narrowed her eyes.
"What about them?"
"They are stuck in their cultivation stage and are unable to make progress because of recent changes in Yrniel. They are only at Great Sage, so if things continue like this..."
Ambrosia couldn't even complete her sentence because she already sensed Lazarus trembling in anger and frustration.
Melia looked at her brother's state and her expression changed.
This was probably the first time she had seen her brother acting like this. To think a man who would usually jump in joy and rush at her the moment she appeared would now stand so far from her, only passing a small, formal smile after seeing her... She could tell what sort of pain her brother was feeling.
Her brother loved his wives, a little too much in fact. He may not be an obsessive fool like Nux, but he isn't very different either.
Lazarus was a family man who valued his family above anything, and knowing that his wives might lose their lives within a few centuries would obviously shake him to his core.
If it was Nux in his place, he might have lost his sanity a long ago.
Melia inwardly shook her head as she recalled how Nux grabbed her and stayed like that for hours without moving when they were alone, it was as if he was afraid that she would disappear.
Melia's body started trembling as she recalled those memories, she knew this was neither the right place nor the environment, but... she had spent almost a century in that man's embrace, and this time, Nux was anything but gentle.
Her body had gone through many... many things...
She couldn't be blamed since her body was not hers to control. Her body had long become Nux's.
Also, this problem wasn't as big as her family was making it out to be.
"What about Sister Luciana, is she alright?" She questioned.
"Luciana is a Semi Saint, so she can still hang on," Ambrosia answered.
"I understand." Melia nodded.
"So it is only Sister Claudia and Esme, correct? Is there anyone else in the main family? I want to help other subordinates as well, but that would attract too much attention, so the numbers should be as limited as possible."
"What...?"
Ambrosia frowned in confusion. Orpheus narrowed his eyes, Lazarus, however, was the first one to lose his patience and, "Melia, what are you talking about?"
"I am saying that this problem is solvable, I'll help Sister Esme and Claudia break through to the next stage, it is not a big deal, of course, you all have to be silent about this. Attracting attention would be problematic."
"You... can help them?"
"Of course.
You think I would leave my family behind?"
Melia stated as if it was obvious.
Then, a smile appeared on her face,
"Also, I still haven't received my hug yet.
I will excuse you since you seem worried, but why have you still not moved, brother?
Or do you not like your little sister anymore?"
Melia spoke as she extended her hands, waiting for Lazarus's hug, and Lazarus's expression changed.
"M-Melia!"
He spoke as he rushed towards her and his eyes turned moist. The moment Melia hugged him back, he couldn't control his emotions any more tears rolled out of his eyes.
Melia, who noticed her brother's tears was silent.
After all, this was the first time she had seen her always strong and smiling brother cry.
How was she supposed to react?
Was she supposed to pat his back and make him feel better? Was she supposed to express that everything was fine now?
Melia didn't know.
In the end, she decided to just stand in silence.
Her brother's tears, she never saw them, this never happened. Melia decided to be silent and be her brother's support.
Orpheus and Ambrosia were silent as well.
Ambrosia observed everything with a happy smile on her face, Orpheus on the other hand, was a more practical man.
"How are you going to help? Yrniel's Mana is a mess, not many cultivators are able to cultivate right now, the same is true for other dimensions connected to Yrniel.
Are you planning to go to another world?
Or do you know the source of this problem and are going to solve it?"
The Bloodheart Head had many questions.
"Yrniel's problem isn't easy to solve, we do aim to come up with a solution eventually, but we do not know how long that will take. Taking incomplete Cultivators to another world isn't feasible either, the current universe isn't exactly a safe place right now.
For now, we have come up with a temporary measure to help a selected few people raise their cultivation."
"How are you going to do that?" Ambrosia questioned with a curious look on her face.
Even she couldn't control the surrounding Mana right now, it has even affected her strength to some degree, she highly doubted that helping someone cultivate and break through in such a situation was a simple task.
"It is one of Nux's abilities.
He can help others break through more easily.
How do you think I managed to break through and become Divine within a few centuries?"
Melia revealed and everyone in the room widened their eyes in shock.
"Are you telling me he helped you break through the Divine Stage?"
Lazarus was shocked.
"Well, not exactly, there were some other factors, but you can say that.
You just need to know that he has the power to help sisters break through Semi Saint Stage.
And once we are done with this,
We will try to find a permanent solution to this problem, something that would help Yrniel's people."
