"Look who finally decided to wake up."
Felberta spoke with a small smile on her face as she glanced at Nux.
A smile appeared on Lane's face as she grabbed Nux's hand with her two hands and kissed it.
Nux's eye trembled, his brows furrowed, then, his face moved a little and then, he slowly opened his eyes.
What welcomed him was the sight of 9 beauties standing around him and seeing this, a weak smile appeared on his face.
"Welcome back, Nux."
Melia spoke up, and this time, unlike that usual indifferent expression, she had a small smile on her face.
Nux glanced at her and nodded.
"You didn't have to push yourself so hard, you know?" Melia muttered.
Nux smiled.
"Anyways, are you alright now? Do you feel any weakness?"
Thyra questioned.
Nux shook his head.
He felt alright, his body was a little lethargic since he has been lying on the floor for a week, straight. Of course, that wasn't something he needed to worry about.
"Do you want to sit?" Ember questioned.
Nux nodded. Lane and Skyla helped him up.
"So? How was your sleep? Did you dream about me?"
Once he was comfortable, Edda questioned with a playful smile on her face.
However, before Nux could even reply, Skyla interrupted,
"What are you even talking about, Sister Edda? Nux obviously dreamt about me. Right, Nux?"
"You guys do realize that I am the first wife, right?" Felberta questioned.
"That doesn't matter." Thyra joined in as well.
Slowly, all the other wives joined in as well, however, while they were debating with each other,
"Guys."
Nux called out.
The room turned silent, and seeing that he has finally gained the attention he wanted, Nux's expression turned serious as he started,
"We need to talk."
"What is it?" Amaya questioned.
Nux then turned towards Melia and then, he spoke,
"One of the Three Favors,
We need to use it right now."
As they heard those words, Nux's women frowned.
Did something happen?
Why was Nux acting like that?
That expression on his face and the thing about using the favor, it felt like something major happened.
Almost immediately, the wives contacted their 2 sisters who weren't together with them.
'Hm? What could possibly happen to me? What? Are you all looking down on me just because you haven't seen me for a while?'
Astaria's reply was simple.
'Ahh? Nux woke up. That's good. I missed him.
Hm? Of course not. I am completely fine. There is no way anyone would dare harm me here.'
Allura replied with a small smile on her face.
Nux's women frowned.
Both their sisters were fine, then…
"What happened?"
Amaya questioned with a frown on her face.
"What do you want to use the favor for?" Melia questioned as well.
"I need to hunt star beasts."
Nux replied.
"Huh? Hunt Star Beasts?" Melia frowned.
She couldn't understand.
Nux needed the help of the Bloodheart House to hunt… beasts?
What for?
Why did he want to hunt beasts?
And why did he need help with that?
Also, hasn't he been hunting beasts for the past year?
Why does he want to hunt more?
Did he need something from their dead body?
A particular material maybe?
He could have directly asked for the material though? Bloodheart House had a deep treasury after all.
To use a Favor for something like this…
Melia was confused.
Nux's wives, on the other hand, quickly realized what Nux wanted to do.
'You need more points?'
Amaya questioned.
'There is something I need to buy.' Nux nodded.
'But to use a favor…' Felberta muttered.
'It is for the best, trust me. I have given it a deep thought.' Nux reassured.
'But haven't we earned lots of points this past year?' Ember questioned.
'We earned 8,845,256 System Points, then we bought Seven 10 Star Spells which cost us 7,000,000, leaving us with 1,845,256 points, then we bought some low-level Spells, I also changed a few things up, and used around 800,000, leaving us with 1,012,147 System Points.'

'And… those points are not enough for what you want?'
'They are not nearly enough…' Nux replied with a grim look on his face.
'What are you trying to do, Nux?' Amaya questioned as she narrowed her eyes.
'I have a plan.' Nux replied with a determined look on his face.
Honestly, he had regained consciousness yesterday, the only reason he did not wake up or tell anybody was because he needed some time alone.
There were things that had been on his mind for a while now.
His System was strong, absurdly strong. It was nothing less than a cheat.
Even in this 'bigger' world, that fact hasn't changed.
The abilities his System gave him, they were unparalleled.
The fact that a Divine Stage Cultivator cannot see through some of the abilities provided by the System was a proof of that.
If only he could find a way to use the System more efficiently.
The System allowed him to buy Weapons, Skills, Spells, Techniques, Items, and Abilities, what he needed was points.
And not a small number of them. He needed a lot of them. He wanted to buy what he had his eyes on, however, no matter how hard he tried, he knew he couldn't buy it on his own.
Therefore, he decided to call in the favor.
"Do you really wish to use this favor for hunting Star Beasts?"
Melia questioned with a frown on her face.
"I do not just want to hunt 1 Star Beast, Melia. I want to hunt lots of them."
"But why?" Melia frowned.
"I will show you once I get what I want. I promise you will not be disappointed." Nux reassured.
Melia glanced at Nux for a while, then, he turned towards his wives,
"And what about you guys? Do you guys want him to use the Favor of the Bloodheart House like this? Or would you like to suggest against it?"
"The Clan Leader asked us to trust him,
That is exactly what we plan to do."
Amaya replied with a small smile on her face. The other women smiled and nodded as well.
Melia observed all of them and in the end, she sighed,
"Alright then, Clan Leader, I shall follow my Sisters and trust you as well."
"Wait, Sisters?" Suddenly, Nux frowned.
