Chapter 430 Unsure Of How To Answer Part 2
--An) Will try to get more out in a bit.--
Blake scratched his head. He didn't really know what to say. Mainly because it was not really up to him. The girls all had to agree to it. Looking down at her expectant eyes Blake sighed as he said: "I need to think about it. I am not outright rejecting you, but I am also not saying yes. This is not only a, me, decision. It is also my wives who must agree as well. Your mother and you did not make a good impression on them. So right now I can not give you an answer until they see you in a better light."
"Oh…" Nanaya was disappointed, but at the same time, she knew she still had a chance. He did not completely reject her. She let out a low sigh of relief. She knew it would not be easy, but she was hoping to win some charm points. But, at least now she knew how to attack. She had to get the wives to see her in a better light! She also did not want to join and be alienated as well. She had seen many higher rank officials who have concubines who were just left to rot because they were not favored. She did not want this at all.
"What can I do to help!?" Nanaya decided to ask. She did not know where to start, so she could only ask Blake what she should do.
Blake thought for a moment before saying: "Can you teach us all about what astral energy is and how we can take it in?"
"This… Mmm… I can! But, if you leave…. Can I go too?" Nanaya did not want to part with Blake. She did not want to see him go.
"As long as my wives agree. I will not leave you behind because if things work out and they begin to treat you well they will naturally bring you into the harem." Blake knew Lillia well. She would never let a strong ally go. But he also knew she did not have a good image of the mother and daughter pair.
"Okay! I will work hard!" Nanaya was willing to make her first love work no matter what. She did not want to end up like her mother!
An hour later, everyone sat out in the grassy field. In the air was a golden board made of astral energy that Nanaya was standing in front of. "First, let me start off with an apology for what happened the other day. I did not expect my Mama to act in such a way. Please do not hate her. Deep down, she is truly a kind and loving person."
Nanaya bowed her head as she gave a sincere apology. She figured she would start with this and then slowly gain everyone's trust and hopefully be welcomed into the family.
"Humph!" Lillia snorted she could tell Nanaya meant what she said, but she was still angry. "My HUSBAND, says you want to teach us how to use astral energy, is this true?"
"Yes!" Nanaya nodded her head like a baby chick. Seeing the interaction between the two, Noa and Mina were giggling because they knew Lillia was not mad at Nanaya, yet she was still putting on a strong front to make her position clear.
Lillia saw the girl answering so quickly and did not know what to say. She found the girl kind of cute but she would not show it just yet. She knew Nanaya was not at fault for what had happened. She was more wary of her mother than anything. "Okay. Let's see how well you teach." Lillia kept up her indifferent attitude, but to Nanaya, these words meant she was willing to at least listen to her!
Ishtar, who was watching everything from her throne room, was biting her thumb. "Why do I feel jealous!?" It did not take a genius to see the difference in Lillia's attitude toward her daughter and her. She felt… "I should have done what she is doing! Ah! Why did I let my pride get the better of me!?"
Ishtar wanted to kick herself. She did not know why she had to be so prideful all the time. She slumped down and swayed her feet back and forth. She was currently laying on her throne, which was nothing more than an oversized bench bed. She had a mini golden window in front of her as she propped her chin up on the palms of her hands and watched as things progressed between the man she had her eye on and her daughter.
"What should I do?" Ishtar was really at a loss. She did not wish to make mistakes, but she also did not have anyone she could talk to about this. "How many more days until I can see him again…." Ishtar's lips began to pout as she continued watching the scene in front of her. She wondered how long it had been since she felt this way.
Back on Blake's side of things, Nanaya finally went into full teacher mode. "Astral energy is what is considered the power of the gods, but it is not actually. Astral power is something that gods can use, but their power is much greater than that. So do not think of it as a godly power. This golden screen can be considered godly while this."
Nanaya held her hand out in front of her, and a purple sphere began to form. "This is astral energy in its condensed form. It is something that is like an in between when it comes to the mana you use and the power the gods use. And it can only be found here in the Astral Domain.
"At least, this is what I have been told by my own teacher. But astral energy is no different than mana in a sense. But it is a little tricky. Let's break it down a bit, shall we?" Nanaya walked over in front of everyone and then waved her hand. A blue ball of mana and a purple ball of astral power appeared in front of everyone.
