“I will only ask you one time,

Are you all willing to be my Slaves?”

Nux questioned.

“Haaah? You think we would submit to a bastard like you?” Vindan spoke, hatred clear on his face.

“Are you forgetting something?

Your decision decides the fate of your frien-“

“Stop using my name to threaten him.

I am not that weak yet.”

Miliana, who was in a daze all this while finally came out of her reverie and glared at Nux.

Nux turned towards her and then, with a smile on his face, he walked towards her.

“I really don’t look intimidating enough in this form, do I?”

Saying those words, Nux extended his hand towards Miliana, Miliana recalled some memories she didn’t wish to recall, so she rushed towards Nux, trying to attack him with everything she had.

“Ghhwwwaaffhfkkkh!!”

However, Nux simply stepped aside, and used his knee to attack Miliana’s abdomen, the impact was so strong that Miliana felt like her eyes would pop out, her stomach churned and she coughed out blood. Her body even lifted in the air for a slight second and then, she fell on her knee again.

Nux however, didn’t end there, he kicked her again and once she was down on the ground, Nux stepped on her head.

“MILIANA!!”

Vindan shouted in worry.

Nux then turned towards Vindan and smiled,

“I can crush her skull right now, would you like to see a third death? Though it would be a pity to lose another Great Sage, I am annoyed enough to do that.”

Nux’s smile turned demonic.

“Don’t you dare!”

“Vindan Lizian, become my Slave.”

“Vindan don’t yo-AAagggghhHHhhh!!”

Before Miliana could say anything, Nux sliced her another arm as well.

“I do not need pointless drama, you have 3 seconds to decide.”

Nux then glanced at Xavien and Vindan and spoke,

“Are you two willing to be my Slaves?”

“I-I am.”

Xavien was the first to nod his head.

“2 seconds left.”

Nux muttered as he glanced at Vindan.

“I…

I am!

Now leave her alone!”

[Slaves: Vindan Lizian, Xavien Frugale …]

A message appeared right in front of Nux’s eyes and he smiled.

Vindan and Xavien, on the other hand, could feel a strange energy entering their bodies and their expression changed.

“W-What have you done to us?”

Vindan questioned as he glanced at Nux.

Nux, however, completely ignored him and,

He increased the pressure on his foot, pushing Miliana’s face onto the floor even harder,

“I still haven’t heard your answer,”

“Get away fr-AAAAGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!”

“AAAAGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!”

Vindan shouted, trying to get Nux away from Miliana, however, suddenly, he felt an agonizing pain all over his body and he screamed.

And he wasn’t alone, Xavien, who, although was not saying anything, he still had the ‘thoughts’ he shouldn’t have when he realized what Nux was doing and that was all the Slave Seal needed,

Xavien screamed at the top of his lungs as well.

The two Great Sages continued to scream out loud, rolling on the ground in pain.

Their shrieks horrified all the people who witnessed it as they widened their eyes in shock and their bodies trembled in fear.

Suddenly, Nux stepped back and then he crouched next to Miliana,

“They are going through all that because of you, you know?”

“S-Stop that… S-Stop what you are doing…”

Miliana spoke with a horrified look on her face.

Xavien and Vindan… she had never seen them like that…

They are the beings who were fine even after their limbs were cut off or pierced through…

Just… Just what kind of pain were they going through for them to roll on the ground and scream like that…

“You know what to do, right?”

Nux spoke and then, he questioned,

“Miliana Winfer, are you willing to be my slave?”

“I am! Just stop what you are doing! I’ll do whatever you want!”

Miliana’s answer was almost instantaneous.

[Slaves: Miliana Winfer, Vindan Lizian, Xavien Frugale…]

Another screen appeared in front of Nux.

Miliana also felt a strange energy entering her body, however, she didn’t care, she just glanced at Nux and,

“P-Please, stop that…”

Her eyes were misty…

It was completely different than her usual fierce look.

“…”

Nux turned silent.

Honestly, he was surprised. These Great Sages, they were quite close to each other. A lot more than he expected.

He waved his hands, the pain Xavien and Vindan were feeling subsided, their bodies trembled and sweated profusely as they lay on the floor.

There were too many things in their mind, however, the strongest out of all those feelings was fear…

The pain they felt… they were terrified… they never wished to feel that again…

No matter what.

Vindan and Xavien didn’t even look at Miliana, the woman they did all of that for… they needed some time for themselves.

“No matter how many times I see it, it is still as scary as the first time…”

Felberta spoke with a strange look on her face.

“I agree… I can never get used to it…”

Evane nodded…

“That pain… it still sent shivers all over my body when I think about it…” Thyra muttered. The other women turned towards her, Ember patted her shoulders.

Thyra, however, moved her shoulder,

“Don’t pity me, I am still thankful that it happened.

I would go through that pain again if I have to.”

“I told you before, didn’t I?

You would never have to go through any kind of pain ever again, my love.”

Suddenly, Thyra felt familiar hands embracing her.

With a slight smile on her face, she simply closed her eyes and simply fell back, leaving Nux to carry her.

Nux smiled as he kissed Thyra’s neck with a gentle look on his face.

“You still need to turn them into Slaves.”

Thyra muttered.

“Mhm, I’ll do that,

After a minute.”

Nux was procrastinating.

Of course, Thyra didn’t mind.

She didn’t mind it at all.

Thyra and Nux stayed like that for 2 minutes, after that, Nux picked Thyra up and walked towards the rest of the members of Destiny,

“Let’s get over this, alright?

They are waiting.”

Nux muttered as he glanced in a particular direction.

“Are you guys willing to be my Slaves?”

“We are.”

There was no resistance at all and Nux gained 16 new Slaves.
