Supreme Harem God System - Chapter 1613: Alright Royce, step forward.
“Is… this how it feels to be a Saint…?” Royce questioned as he stared at his hands with a strange look on his face. All of this felt… too unreal.
A few minutes ago, he was worried about his wife, his future, and how he would continue from here, and now… Here he was, with his wife perfectly alright, and him becoming one of the strongest beings in the world…
Was everything… this easy? Of course, Royce knew the answer to this question already. Nothing was easy.
He only got lucky because of his father and mother; others would kill to be in his position. He had seen it with his own eyes, he had seen how people have lost their loved ones in this ‘Mana apocalypse’, the lucky ones perished together with their loved ones, while the unlucky ones, they were cursed to live alone, uncertain of whether things would return to normal or would they also perish before something could happen.
It wasn’t just the Clan or the continent he lived in, the entire world was in this gloomy state, it was as if the Gods had declared the end of the world. Almost all powers were in chaos, the crime rate had become the highest it ever was, people were desperate, they wanted hope but no matter what they did, or who they prayed to, nothing happened.
The newborns of the Cultivators could only live for a hundred years as if they were mortals, the cultivators couldn’t live for long either, death toll was at the highest as well, Yes, Yrniel was in a mess. This was also the reason that even the Progenitors were so worried.
After all, this could very well destroy what they once swore to protect. And in this desperate state, there stood Royce, who was currently at the peak of his life.
“Father…” Royce called out. He didn’t know how he was supposed to return this favour.
Looking at his expression, Nux chuckled.
“You should leave this place.”
Suddenly, Nux spoke.
“But the Clan…”
“Clans don’t matter right now, Royce.”
Nux shook his head.
“We can always make a new clan when we want, right now, you should either go to the Lust State or the Elven Kingdom. They will ensure your safety.”
“I am Saint now.”
“You were an Emperor who became a Saint, you do not know anything.
You do not understand what it means to be a Saint. I won’t be surprised if you lose to even a Semi Saint right now.
Cultivation doesn’t matter, just because you are a Saint, doesn’t mean you are invincible. Go to one of these two places and they will teach you everything you need to learn.
Otherwise, you will only be wasting your life.” Nux was honest.
He then glanced at his Olivia and, “The same goes for you.
You will be following him and learning together with him.
I do not want my son and daughter-in-law to be weak,”
“Y-Yes, father-in-law.”
Olivia lowered her head.
Even now, it was still hard for her to interact with him. She still remembered how she openly blushed in front of him when she first met her and despite Felberta constantly telling her that it happened because Nux was unable to fully control his Bloodline, she still felt guilty towards Royce and thought about it often.
Not to mention… Olivia had another wish, a wish she couldn’t help but feel embarrassed and guilty about. She didn’t know if she could even bring that topic up, but then, “Now, quickly go bring your father, I’ll help him break through as well.”
Nux spoke up.
“W-What?” Olivia’s expression changed.
“What?” Nux frowned.
“You are going to help my father?”
“Should I not? I thought he was the only family member you were close to.”
Her father was a normal cultivator while her mother came from an influential family, but her mother was killed and his father was forced to take her to her mother’s family to ensure her protection, since then, she and her father have been continuously suppressed and harassed by her mother’s family. Nux frowned.
He obviously wouldn’t let his son marry just any random person, the moment he realized that Royce had chosen Olivia to be his wife, he did a background check on the woman and learned that she came from a difficult background. Her father was a normal cultivator while her mother came from an influential family, but her mother was killed and his father was forced to take her to her mother’s family to ensure her protection, since then, she and her father have been continuously suppressed and harassed by her mother’s family.
Olivia had a difficult childhood and only her father supported her throughout this ordeal.
And right now, according to what Nux knew, her father, who was also a Sage, should be in a similar situation to hers.
Then why doesn’t she wish to help him? Nux wondered in his head, he even considered that the reports he got were wrong, but that shouldn’t be possible. Amaya was the one who handled this matter and Nux knew she didn’t make mistakes.
“N-No! That’s not it! P-Please help him!” Olivia bowed her head, her eyes becoming teary.
“I was planning on doing that already…” Nux replied with a strange look on his face. Then, he turned towards Royce and, “If you are close to some other people, bring them all as well. I’ll help them break through, then you all can move to either of the powers I mentioned and start training seriously.”
“I understand.”
Royce nodded. He then quickly took the trembling Olivia away and Nux and his wives were left alone.
Time passed, Nux quickly helped all the people Royce gathered. All the people here were the ones he had already expected, he had received these names and appearances in the reports provided by his slaves, so nothing here was surprising.
“Alright Royce, step forward.” Once everything was settled, Felberta called out.
Royce’s expression got serious. It was time to now change his race.
He glanced at his mother again, now that he was informed about what Eldraeths were, he couldn’t help but look forward to it. Seeing the look on his face, Nux couldn’t help but chuckle.
Soon, however, his expression changed as he glanced in a certain direction. On the other hand, Felberta stepped forward and a big magic circle appeared under her feet, however, before she could continue, *Crack* The Magic Circle cracked and disappeared.
Royce and others frowned and turned towards Felberta, the Progenitor, on the other hand, turned towards Nux, and Nux continued to look in the direction he was looking at before, It was as if he was waiting for someone to appear.
