"Why did you lie to me?
Why did you say that the Progenitors were using you when it was you who contacted the otherworlders first?
Why are you trying to blame the people who are trying to protect you?
Why are you trying to destroy the place that gave you a home when your own was destroyed?"
Nux asked several questions and the answer he got was…
"…"
Silence.
The woman didn't say anything.
Of course, Nux wasn't impatient either, he continued to stare at 'her', giving her all the time she needed to come up with an answer.
5 minutes passed by, the hall was still deathly silent.
The beings who had sensed Nux's presence had already surrounded the place, none, however, dared to attack.
After all, this wasn't the first time Nux had come here, they knew what sort of monstrosity they were dealing with and they also knew Nux was somewhat close to the Family Head.
Suddenly, Nux felt a strange force surrounding him, he could resist if he wanted, for a moment, he let it be and he was teleported to a different space.
He looked around and found himself inside a completely white space, the walls, the ceiling, the floor, everything was white with no difference whatsoever, you could turn this space around and no one would notice it.
*Step* *Step*
Nux then heard footsteps.
As he turned around, his eyes fell on the woman he had come here for.
"So you had a chat with a Progenitor, huh…
I didn't expect you would directly confront them regarding our situation.
I guess you were pretty serious when you said you wanted to help us."
Faelara commented.
"And I guess you weren't as serious, huh?
I didn't think you would lie."
"What? Do you expect me to trust a child to save my people? And for what? Because he fell in love with me?
Do you realize how childish that sounds?
It is almost like a bedtime story I used to recite when Vulpiana was a child."
"Now that I look at it, that does feel quite childish.
I guess I did let my greed take over me."
Nux admitted.
He wasn't in the right state of mind back then, even now, he knew he wasn't exactly in a perfect condition. However, he wasn't planning on letting this get between what he wanted.
"Anyways, now that you know I was serious when I said I wanted to protect you, shouldn't you tell me why you did it?
Why are you trying to ally with the otherworlders?"
"You talk as if I am the one doing it."
Faelara chuckled.
Nux frowned and the Fox started telling her story,
"What do you think would happen when you, a being from a Middle Level World, with endless potential, would be thrown to a Lower Level World, limiting your Potential?
Would you try and live together with people clearly much less talented than you?
Well, I don't know about you or me, my ancestors didn't like that option very much.
