"How do we deal with the Supreme Worlds coming after us?"
Nux questioned directly, doing exactly what the Seer told him to do. The woman smiled. She knew Nux still had doubts, but she appreciated his actions.
Their relationship was finally blossoming.
For an instant, she lost herself in her own fantasies. Soon, however, she shook her head and answered Nux's question.
"You do not have to worry about that.
Those fools are currently busy fighting amongst themselves, trying to find out who amongst them is the Universe's Child and come up with ways to end his existence."
"So they do not know who the Universe's Child actually is?"
"Of course not. If they did, Azriel would have died. You think the Universe would make it so easy to kill its Child?
They just know the Universe has chosen a Child, and they believe it is one of them because who else would it be?
After all, they are the entities closest to the Universe—or at least, that is what they believe."
The Seer spoke sarcastically. Clearly, she wasn't fond of the Four Supreme Worlds.
"What does 'entities closest to the Universe' mean? Actually, was there a reason the Universe chose Lord Azriel as its Child? If yes, then do you know what it is?"
Nux asked a series of questions.
The Seer momentarily turned silent, making Nux frown.
"What? Is it something I will not understand again?"
"You see…"
The Seer smiled wryly.
However, just as Nux was about to sigh in disappointment, the woman gave in, unable to see that look on his face.
"Alright, I'll try to explain.
Think of it this way: if the Universe's strength is 100, then Infinities are at 60, the Eternals are at 8, Transcendents 1, and others don't matter."
"That's quite a big gap between Eternals and Infinities."
Nux commented.
"It is accurate."
The Seer nodded, once again returning to the main topic.
"According to this scale, Infinities are obviously closest to the Universe, and while this scale may represent strength, it also represents the connection between the Universe and an entity inside it.
After all, the essence of cultivation is understanding your Law, and as you understand your Law, you get closer to the Universe.
So the living entities closest to the Universe are indeed Infinities. The more powerful their Law and the better their understanding of it, the closer they are.
In our scale, this could be like the Infinities from Supreme Level Worlds being somewhere around 60, while Azriel is at 61."
"So the reason Azriel was chosen was because he was the strongest?"
"Yes, that is one way to look at it. Strength isn't exactly the only factor either.
Azriel is also trustworthy and has a track record."
"A track record?"
Nux frowned.
"Yrniel."
The Seer answered.
"Azriel protected Yrniel when it was on the verge of destruction."
"Doesn't every Progenitor protect his own world?"
"Azriel is different. He protected Yrniel from threats that should have destroyed it."
"But Yrniel was…"
