Chapter 626 The Mastered Devouring Mist Demon Physique
'That man loves his life, I don't think he would dare to do something like this just to kill your 'servant'.'
Amaya was betting it all with a cold expression on her face.
Nux clenched his fists.
He knew Amaya the best, even though she was acting as if it was nothing, he knew she was definitely nervous and was panicking inwardly.
She was betting on her mother's life after all.
'Don't worry, nothing would go wrong.'
Suddenly, Nux heard Roina's voice.
He glanced at her, the woman looked back at him, her dark black eyes shone strangely,
'I can see in his eyes, he is not going to pull anything.'
'You don't act on assumptions.' Nux replied.
A small smile appeared on Riona's face as she replied, 'I don't, but it doesn't mean I am not capable of doing so.
Trust me, when it comes to reading expressions, you won't find anyone better than me,
I have been doing it for a century after all.
You can trust this Queen.'
Riona puffed her chest in pride.
However, unlike Skyla, who usually had a childlike innocence in her eyes when she does it, Riona had an aura of a confident woman, a true Queen.
A Queen whose aura was far stronger than Evane's, or even Astaria for that matter.
'…'
Seeing that expression, Nux instantly knew what he had to do.
He had to trust the Queen.
"Riona, step forward."
Nux ordered.
Riona stepped forwards with an expressionless face.
"She is Riona, she is my most loyal servant, she will be the one who will sign this contract. You don't mind, do you?"
Nux questioned.
"You want me to serve a mere King Stage Cultivator?" Nawdren questioned back.
"You lost to a King Stage Cultivator."
Nux replied with a cold look on his face, he then stepped on Nawdren's face and spoke,
"Don't forget, you do not get to choose here.
Now answer me, do you agree or not?"
"I… I agree."
Nawdren didn't have any other option.
Nux then turned towards Riona and nodded. Riona nodded back and stepped up, with a dignified look on her face, she cut her hand, her blood drops fell on the Magic Circle Nawdren created and the circle shined.
*Whoosh* *Whoosh* *Whoosh*
The Contract Circle started sucking more and more Mana.
Suddenly, golden-colored chains formed in the air and ignored all the Life Force that was trapped outside Nawdren's body, his clothes, and his Flesh, it pierced through his body and then disappeared without leaving a mark.
The other end of the chain moved towards Riona, Riona tried to hold it, however, the moment she touched it, the chains disappeared.
Suddenly, Riona's expression changed as she grabbed her head.
Seeing that, Amaya panicked.
Nux's expression changed as well.
"What did you do?"
He questioned as he increased the force he had applied on his foot that was on Nawdren's head.
"I didn't do anything…" Nawdren replied.
"You bastard!" Nux cursed.
However, just as he was about to increase the force even more, Riona spoke up,
"You can stop it, Nux."
"Hmm?" Nux stopped and turned towards Nux.
"He is not lying, it is a Master-Servant Contract, and I am the Master here.
The pain I felt was because information about the Contract was forced into my brain."
Riona replied.
Hearing those words, Nux quickly stepped away and walked toward Riona,
"Are you sure you are okay?"
"Yes, I am."
Riona nodded.
Amaya then walked up and hugged Riona from behind.
Right now, she looked like a little girl who craved her mother's attention.
Seeing this expression, Riona couldn't hold herself back and a playful smile appeared on her face,
"Oh? You are finally here after you tried to sacrifice your mother for your husband?"
Amaya's expression changed.
"T-That's not it!"
"So you are saying that you love your mother more than you love your husband?"
"No."
Amaya's response was… direct…
"…" Riona didn't know what to say.
"Don't try to steal my wife. Tsk."
Nux snorted and he hugged Amaya, unknowingly hugging Riona in the process as well.
Seeing this scene, Astaria narrowed her eyes, however before she could say anything,
"Can you get rid of this annoying Mist now?" 𝚋ｅ𝚍ｎ𝚘ｖｅ𝚕．𝚘𝚛𝚐
Nawdren spoke with an annoyed look on his face.
He has been repeatedly harassed today.
To be honest, he was so angry that if he could kill Nux, he would do it in the cruelest way possible.
If only this bastard wasn't this powerful and didn't have his life in his palm…
Nawdren gritted his teeth.
Nux completely ignored his words and turned towards Riona.
Riona knew what he wanted to ask and nodded. Nux nodded back then, and the Mist surrounding Nawdren's body finally disappeared.
Nawdren was finally able to feel Mana again.
On the other hand, Nux's eyes turned dark, then he saw the White Energy that surrounded Nawdren's body going back into his Body.
To confirm his thoughts, Nux's eyes returned to normal and he activated [Eye of Discerning.]
[Name: Nawdren Besch.]
[Age: 129-895 --> 129-1011]
[Mana Cultivation: Pseudo Sage.]
[Body Cultivation: Mortal.]
[Race: Mutated Human-Beast]
[Occupation: Protector of the Sealed Continent.]
[Talent: --]
[LVL: 79.5]
'He lost around 100 years in around 3 minutes…'
It was a lot slower than it should have been, but Nux understood the problem.
The Life Force he was trying to Devour was a Dense, Raw Life Force.
It is completely different from when the Life Force is inside one's body, in diffused State.
Of course, Nux was still wasn't an expert in all of this, however, from a rough idea he had in his mind,
He could now Kill an Emperor, who has around 500 years of Life, within 10 seconds.
Yes, he could Devour 50 Years of Life in just a single Second.
A Mortal wouldn't survive for 2 Seconds, and even a King Stage Cultivator wouldn't last more than 5 Seconds.
Of course, no one is a King Stage Cultivator, or an Emperor the moment he is born, even Astaria, the most talented person here needed around 200 years to become an Emperor.
That meant, even at her best, she only had 300 years of life, an amount Nux could Devour within 6 Seconds.
The current Astaria, who was around 300 years old, can only survive 4 seconds in front of Nux.
The Mastered Devouring Mist Demon Physique was just that scary.
