While Aster was drinking from his cup, he evaluated Arthur''s expressions and noticed he was truly sad that Nadia was going to die due to the wound in her dantian.


    Originally, he wouldn''t have minded giving Arthur a bottle of his blood, since it was enough to more or less stabilize Eris and Mylene''s souls and nourish them so some extent, curing a damaged dantian should be possible.


    The only problem is that he now wasn''t sure if there will be side effects due to the changes his bloodline is going through even at this point, as of right now only Sarina, Eris and Mylene had drank it.


    Sarina was his woman so there wasn''t any problem if she were to ever have an episode like Lilia and Alice… for Eris and Mylene, Rya already told him there shouldn''t be any problems because there is a huge gap between their original cultivation realms, it was effective for them only because they lost most of their powers.


    Worst case scenario Mylene was technically his maid and Eris also had some kind of bond with him thanks to the cosmos tree, but Nadia on the other hand was Arthur''s "girlfriend" and it wouldn''t be funny if she were to feel attracted to him.


    Surprisingly even when Rya also didn''t have her physical form, his blood alone couldn''t help her recover, which made him more curious about Rya''s cultivation.


    Ultimately Aster shrugged and then patted Arthur''s shoulder.


    "I have something that could cure your little girlfriend".


    Arthur''s eyes illuminated as a pair of stars, he looked at Aster and bowed his head.


    "Kid, as long as you help me heal her, I''m willing to give you my life if that''s what you want!".


    Aster sighed and helped Arthur rise his head.


    "Let me finish… you are Aria''s father and one of the few decent persons I have met in my life, so you are also considered a part of my family, I''m not scum enough to ask for a payment to you", he said as he took out a bottle with liquid which looked like a mix between golden and red from his spatial ring.


    "This is my blood, you already know I''m rather different than others, so I will skip the exnation, as long as the realm of the one drinking it isn''t that far from mine, it can cure probably any kind of wound".


    "It has been proven as I cured a star tribtion realm "patient" before, helping her recover from years of deterioration all the way to her prime in a matter of days".


    The more Aster spoke, the more Arthur felt excited, he remained single for a long time mourning his wife and all those years Nadia took care of him and Aria the best way she could as someone who couldn''t use her cultivation at all.


    She only broke silence about her feelings because she was going to die soon, which made Arthur open his eyes, Aria was going to leave soon to make her life, so it was time to move on for him too.


    "Then… let me call Nadia here so she can drink it!", he said with a slightly rushed voice.


    Aster stopped Arthur from standing up and then dropped the bomb.


    "The only problem is that there is a slight possibility that she… starts feeling attracted to me after drinking it".


    Arthur froze in the spot, he knew that although Aster liked to mess with him, he was always serious when needed, so he didn''t think it was a joke nor he got angry with him, instead he frowned his brows.


    Arthur doubted for a moment and then took the bottle from Aster''s hands.


    "You will be leaving so I don''t see the problem in giving it a try… I will have to watch out when you return in the future though".


    "On the other hand, I have to tell her the possible side effects before letting her drink it, ultimately the decision is hers".


    Asterughed.


    "It''s not going to be a big dosage, who knows it''s also possible that nothing happens, maybe her desires will be directed to you even, I hope you are ready to be tied to your bed for a couple of hours when the timees".


    Arthur didn''t know whether he shouldugh or cry, Aria already told him, Aster had other lovers without telling him they were Lilia and Alice of course, but he was aware that his daughter wasn''t the only one.


    "I guess you are a skirt chaser up to the bone", he said in a weird tone.


    Aster chuckled as he offered Arthur a toast.


    "What can I say, it''s literally in my nature", he then gulped the wine in one go as he thought.


    "Dragons arescivious after all".


    Although Arthur didn''t understand what was Aster talking about, he epted the toast and then stood from his chair to go call Nadia and also Aria back.


    …


    Outside of Arthur''s studio, Nadia and Aria were in an awkward situation, while their respective lovers were talking, they remained silent and looked at each other until Aria''s voice broke the silence.


    "Nothing has changed, you took care of me when I was little and dad looked happy… in any case I''m relieved that it''s you who has managed to help him move on and not some other woman".


    Nadia smiled and patted Aria''s head.


    "Thanks, it means a lot for me… with that hair color you are starting to look like Aina".


    The two girls quickly forgot about their previous awkward situation and they started happily talking with each other, until Nadia mentioned her life was going to end soon.


    "My wound has gotten worse over the years, to be honest I just decided to tell Arthur about my feelings, because of that, as long as I can stay by his side in myst days then that''s enough for me".


    Aria knew Nadia had suffered damages in her dantian, so this was bound to happen, but still she thought it will be some time before she reached this point.


    "Damn, I was going to look for an elixir at the ce we will be going, but now even if I find it, there won''t be enough time to travel back to the Rodia star cluster… wait there is still that option".


    Aria''s eyes glowed, remembering how Sarina was healed after drinking Aster''s blood, she grabbed Nadia''s hands and dragged her towards her father''s studio.


    "Little girl what are you doing?".


    Aria didn''t stop as she answered.


    "Aster might have a way to help you, so I''m taking you with him right now!".


    Nadia wanted to tell Aria that it was futile, the medicine to heal a cracked dantian was not something that could be found in a low-level star cluster like this one, but she couldn''t find the strength to turn her down.


    Before Aria could do it, the door of the studio opened and Arthur appeared in front of them with a happy expression, which confused Nadia.


    "Come with me… I have something to talk with you two".


    Aria and Nadia red at each other and they followed Arthur, inside of the room Aster was leisurely leaned against the chair waiting for them, his metabolism was so fast due to the paragon body that alcohol didn''t affect him, and the spiritual wine was better than any drink from earth so he just kept pouring cup after cup of it.


    Arthur, took Nadia''s hands and helped take a seat next to him, while Aster and Aria sat in front of them.


    "Let me properly introduce you two, Nadia, this is Aria''s fiancé, Aster Drage, Aster, she is Nadia Raike, my… woman", Arthur doubted for a second but he then firmly affirmed his wish to take Nadia as hispanion.


    Both Nadia and Aria were a bit surprised, Arthur is a serious and demure person, so it was a bit weird for them to hear him saying something like that, Aria couldn''t help but steal a couple of gazes at Aster.


    "I wonder why could they possibly have talked about, to make my father act like this", she thought, but her doubt didn''tst long because Arthur put a serious face as he showed them, a bottle with a red and golden liquid.


    "Nadia, this elixir can perfectly heal your dantian, you will even be able to cultivate again if things go well… but there is a slight possibility of a side effect".


    Nadia was in awe, her eyes got a bit teary, imagining she would be able to make a family with the man she has been loving from afar for so many years.


    "I will ept it, I don''t care if I have to suffer any side effects, as long as I''m able to remain by your side!".


    The atmosphere got a bit emotional, Aria hugged Aster, knowing him this was for sue his doing.


    But the happy filial atmosphere disappeared once Arthur finished his previous exnation.


    "The side effect is that, you might feel "attracted" towards the one who made the elixir… in this case Aster".


    Aster could feel both Nadia and Aria''s gazes on him, but he remained calm andplemented Arthur deration.


    "It''s not something I can control, let''s just say the principal ingredient for this elixir is rted to my family".
