"You fight like a proud warrior.
It doesn't matter if Aeliana can endure hours against the Progenitors and you cannot. You do not fight to 'last' against your enemies.
You fight to crush them.
That is who you are, and that is the warrior I love."
Nux then pulled the Dragon even closer to him and,
"You are different, your fighting style is different. So stop comparing yourself with her.
You are a lot stronger than that. Focus on that strength and..."
Suddenly, Nux's smile widened and,
"Focus on me.
I am your target.
I am the one you need to surpass, not her.
Or...
Are you scared?"
Nux smiled.
"You are weaker than her. I aim high."
Vyriana snorted.
Nux, however, just tightened his hug around her and,
"Why don't you try and defeat the 'weaker' one before aiming high?"
"I broke your arms when I punched you."
"And? That doesn't mean anything, you should know that."
It was true. Nux was the product of Vyriana's ruthless training. She, out of all the people, should know breaking his arms wouldn't do anything since he wouldn't even feel the pain.
Not to mention, after severing Lane, this had become even more useless since the man could simply kill himself and resurrect back to full health. Even if they used 'higher quality' energy to stop him from healing himself, it wouldn't matter since the man could now abandon his body and form a new one.
"If I can break your hands, I can break your head too, and when I do it, your resurrection won't work."
Vyriana didn't give in.
"I welcome you to try"
Nux's smile widened.
"Alright then."
The woman nodded, prepared for another round of battle as she popped her fingers. "...he really knows how to deal with her, doesn't he?"
Saphira, who was keeping an eye on them, couldn't help but comment.
"Hmm?" Acliana tilted her head in confusion. She was currently hugging Saphira, trying to get on her good side again. Her attention, however, was now on Nux and Vyriana.
"Vyriana was down when she couldn't defeat me."
Dagahra spoke.
"And that girl didn't say anything to us. She just continued to spar with him and continued to lose. We knew what she was feeling, but when we tried to talk to her, she remained silent, trying to act like nothing happened.
But when he did it..."
Saphira spoke, her eyes glowing with slight jealousy when she stared at Nux.
"I feel like that man has stolen my Vyriana from me."
"I feel the same."
Dagahra nodded, his eyes momentarily turning cold.
"Is this how Azriel feels when he looks at him? This... anger and frustration...? After all,
he took this one away as well, didn't he?"
Saphira questioned.
Aeliana blinked, confused as to why she and her father were unexpectedly caught in the crossfire.
"I am surprised that brat is still alive."
Dagahra commented.
"Indeed, but I guess even our hands are tied, aren't they?
We cannot hurt our disciple's husband, now can we?"
"But he still isn't his daughter's husband yet," Dagahra muttered. It felt as if he was looking forward to Azriel going after Nux.
"Have you lost your mind, old man?
This is why these young ones find us boring. It is all because of you, and I am being dragged down with you." Saphira blamed, and then she pointed at Aeliana and,
"Do you not see it?
