CHAPTER 1659 SHADOW...?
*RUMBLE* *RUMBLE* *RUMBLE*
*THUNDER* *THUNDER* *THUNDER*
The universe showed its Rage.
Once again, the unknown anomaly had taken what belonged to it.
And this time, it wasn't just the world, all the living entities that were connected to this world were taken away as well.
Its plan had failed, it wasn't able to get rid of Lane Leander, and neither was it able to get Riona Leander.
It should have known.
It should have doubted Riona Leander, when the entity she was connected to, Amaya Leander, disappeared before.
Not wanting to make the same mistake, the Universe started keeping an eye on all the entities that were connected with the entities that had disappeared.
Soon, its search was narrowed down to two entities, entities called Allura Leander and Aisha Leander, who were connected to the entity called Nux Leander.
It moved quickly, trying to find where these entities were, however, it was confused when it realised that the two mentioned entities were in completely different places.
One was in a quasi-Supreme while the other was in a Lowest Level World, very far from each other.
Even if it wanted to, there was no point in attacking the two entities since they seemed completely unrelated to the World that was devoured,
Actually, the entity called Aisha Leander was present in the devoured World before it was devoured, but going by that logic, so were other entities.
The Universe couldn't just devour all those entities.
Even if it wanted to get rid of the anomaly, it couldn't just randomly devour beings, especially the beings it had personally recognized.
However,
It wouldn't give up.
Entities called Aisha Leander and Allura Leander were mostly together, so it would keep an eye on them, together with the entity named Lane Leander.
The moment. Lane Leander appears again, it would attack, this time, an attack even stronger than before.
And just like that, the moment Aisha Leander and Allura Leander are found related to any other world that gets stolen in the future, it would attack them as well.
Yes, the Universe had planned it all.
Nux and his wives were in grave danger.
However, next time, Universe won't be the only one who will come prepared.
Nux would be the same.
With the unconscious Riona in his arms, Nux stared into the distant with a grave look on his face.
Nux wasn't a fool either, especially after devouring two worlds, it wasn't just his body that had strengthened, his mind was the same.
His thinking capabilities had strengthened to a ridiculous degree.
He didn't fail to notice the attack started the moment Lane appeared.
The Universe cannot sense him, he knew it already, the only one he could sense was Lane, and then Riona, who appeared later.
And it attacked the two of them.
One didn't have to be a genius to understand how the Universe and its attacks worked. Nux realized he was an unknown, invisible, and annoying entity to the Universe, so it would now get rid of all the women connected to him.
The women who were connected to him that the Universe can still sense?
They were Aisha and Allura, who had formed dependent Laws that were connected to him.
'I need to sever their connection with the Universe!
It was decided.
The 'turns' won't be decided by the usefulness of the Laws or whatever, it would be decided with the Universe's moves in mind.
And the only one who will be making these decisions will be Nux.
It was a direct battle between Nux and the Universe.
One Universe versus the Other.
'Nux...'
While Nux was thinking all that, he heard a guilt-ridden voice.
You are not allowed to come out anymore, is that clear?"
Nux ordered, his tone made it clear that he wasn't having a no for an answer.
And Lane, who could tell his state of mind wasn't the best right now, didn't go against
him either.
'Okay.'
'Nux, calm down.'
Felberta spoke with a worried look on her face.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
'I am calm.'
Nux replied.
'I do not sense calmness in your thoughts. Felberta commented.
'I nearly died, Felberta.'
Nux's answer was instantaneous.
'If it wasn't for Riona using her Law to the limits, I would have died today and I am not sure if Evane's Law is currently strong enough to revive me.
Her Law was formed to revive Nux who was supposed to be a normal living entity, and I
am clearly not one.
Evane's Law isn't strong enough to revive an entire Universe, so my death here would have been the end.
You would have lost me once and for all.'
In an instant, Felberta's expression changed.
'Can you stay calm after knowing that?
Does words 'calm down' work on you?
It won't and I already know it.
Lane nearly died, Fel.
And Riona's condition s worse."
"What happened to her?"
Evane questioned with a worried look on her face.
At first, she only thought that her sister had passed out because she had overused her
powers, but seeing Nux's reaction, it was clear that was not the case.
And Evane was right.
It was not.
The moment he severed Riona's connection with the Universe and devoured her, Nux understood the woman's Law completely.
And...
Her Law was nowhere near strong enough to block an attack of such level, it was only
able to block this attack because it 'had' to.
It was what Riona's Law was, I was its existence.
But to pull off this impossibility, Riona would need to pay a price.
And since all this happened because of the Law's existence, the price was just that...
Felberta spoke with a worried look on her face.
'I am calm.'
Nux replied.
'I do not sense calmness in your thoughts.' Felberta commented.
'I nearly died, Felberta.
Nux's answer was instantaneous.
'If it wasn't for Riona using her Law to the limits, I would have died today and I am not

In an instant, Felberta's expression changed.
'Can you stay calm after knowing that? Does words 'calm down' work on you?
It won't and I already know it.
Lane nearly died, Fel.
And Riona's condition is worse.
"What happened to her?"
Evane questioned with a worried look on her face.
At first, she only thought that her sister had passed out because she had overused her
powers, but seeing Nux's reaction, it was clear that was not the case.
And Evane was right.
It was not.

But to pull off this impossibility, Riona would need to pay a price.
And since all this happened because of the Law's existence, the price was just that...
As if following him, Lane, Felberta, and Evane who was carrying Riona, appeared here as
well.
"So this is where you have been all this time?" Felberta questioned as she turned towards
Shadow.
"I was exploring the changes I sensed and...
Then I found them."
Shadow spoke as she pointed in a certain direction.
Nux and the others turned towards the direction she pointed at and seeing so many
silhouettes, they frowned.
Nux narrowed his eyes, his vision became clearer as he willed it and the next instant, he
was able to see shadowy beings, hundreds of thousands of them, standing, looking
around with ridiculous looks on their faces.
"Aren't they..."
"Netizens of the World you devoured, yes." Shadow nodded.
"Why are they here?"
Nux questioned.
"Why ask me? You are the God here. If anyone should know the answer, it should be
you."
"Did I sever their connection with the Universe as well?"
"That seems to be the case."
Felberta nodded.
"But they seem different from us."
She commented.
"What do you mean?" Nux frowned.
"Their features seem more... weak compared to ours?"
Felberta didn't know how to explain it, especially since all of them looked like every part.
of their body was painted deep black.
Nux however, realized what his wife was talking about.
Compared to him and his wives, these beings looked more... blurry?
And soon, he thought of a reason,
He didn't devour them.
They just came because they were connected with this world, unlike his wives, who he
brought here, they just came as byproduct, their connection with him, the Universe was
weak, hence their weak features.
"Are they intelligent?"
Nux questioned.
"They have been conversing with each other, so yes, they are. It seems they have also
retained their memories and are currently confused as to where they are.
Oh, and they cannot see us right now, I made it that way."
Shadow clarified.
And the more she talked, the stranger Felberta's expression became,
"How come do you know all this?"
She questioned. "Hmm?" Shadow tilted her head. "You previously said you 'sensed' changes,
You can also hear their conversation while we cannot,
You also knew how we are supposed to travel here from one world to another,
How do you know all that?"
"I don't know...
I just... do...?
I am the Administrator after all.
Wait...
Administrator...?"
Shadow tilted her head as she suddenly felt different.
This...
This wasn't something she inherited from Lane.
All this knowledge about Nux's Universe...
She shouldn't know any of it... Then how...
"Shadow...?"
The confusion continued to rise.
