Supreme Magus novel Chapter 1814

Chapter 1814: Party Crushers (Part 2)

"Any argument the parents have about the Awakening while the child i s still alive becomes a matter of grudge after their death and the one w ho wanted to Awaken them will blame the other for their death.

"Surtr shared with me the secret of the white core exactly because he c ouldn't bear the thought of losing me. We have lost a few children a lready, but thanks to the natural longevity of our species, it has n ever come down to age..."

Only then did Rethia notice that the music had stopped and that e veryone was listening to her lecture about marriage.

‘Oh gods, I killed the party! How do I ?x that?’ She asked Surtr via a m ind link.

"Where is this famous ice cream I've heard so much talking about?“

He asked. "Mom, I hope you won't mind if I ask Lith the recipe."

"Don't you dare share it with him, Lith!" Sinmara said.

“This is not my home. Here I am a guest as any other." Salaark shook h er head. "Lith is free to do whatever he wants.“

"But, Mom!" A bit of family drama about ice cream was all it took for t he mood to lighten up and people to chuckle at Sinmara trying to p ick up a ?ght with her brother.

After them, Aerth arrived as well. Lith introduced the Blue Phoenix to e veryone, explaining that he didn't bear gifts because he had already g iven Solus one.

Then arrived the Ernas sisters and, much to Lith‘s surprise, Phloria as w ell.

"What does she do here?" He asked.

"l invited her to thank her for taking me to you after Man0har's d eath." Solus replied. "After spending that night together, 1 think it's t ime that l try to mend our relationship."

The more people an'ived the more awkward Lith felt. Solus's birthday w as turning into an even more complex event than his, and that s poke volumes of the ?gures that walked through the room, chit- c hatting.

‘As far as I know, Solus and Phloria never got along ever since I

Awakened her. This doesn't bode well.’ Lith thought, without even k nowing that the worst had yet to come.

The double doors of the ballroom opened once again, letting in more u nexpected guests.

Baba Yaga in her Mother form and Lochra Silverwing walked briskly to Solus in their magni?cent evening dresses, hugging her as if she has j ust escaped mortal danger.

"Thank the gods you are alright, Elphyn. I was afraid to lose you f orever." The Mother looked great in her cream—colored dress. It had a square neckline and was decorated with a solar pattern.

More than her beauty it was the warm tenderness that she exuded t hat made the male guests turn their necks to look at her way longer t han it was polite. Aerth studied her with interest, waiting for the r ight moment to make his move.

"Malyshka? Loka? What are you doing here and what are you talking a bout?" Solus asked in confusion as the rest of the room readied their s pells in case Silverwing tried something funny.

"We know everything about what Bytra did to you and your mother."

Someone enslaved could never experience a tribulation because their a ctions would be a re?ection of their master's will instead of their o wn. The personality of a slave couldn't resonate with Mogar simply b ecause they weren't allowed to have one.

"We'll see.“ Lith said, noticing that they both had brought more p aintings for Solus. "You'll be our guest for now, but the moment you s how hostility toward me or any member of my family, I'll kick you o ut."

A quick bright white blaze in the eyes of Surtr, Rethia, Sinmara, and e ven Salaark told the First Magus that she was one step away from o blivion. Yet she didn't care. _{freewebnσvel.cѳm}

"I'll keep that in mind." She nodded. "Please, if you ever change your m ind and decide to turn that traitorous horse into a steak, let me k now. I'd be also glad to help you in case you need anything that d oesn't involve my secrets.

"I'm sorry but having an eternal life also means having no need for an h eir. I don't plan to share my legacy unless strictly necessary."

Lith couldn't help but click his tongue in disappointment.

"Malyshka what happened to V|adion?" Solus asked. "We have tried c ontacting him but he never answered and not even his family in Lightkeep knows anything.“

"He was almost killed by Night's Chosen after he called you." Baba Yaga replied. "He survived solely because of my bond with the Firstborns that gives me their dimensional coordinates.

"Once he realized that he had no way out, he called for me and I r escued him. He's Currently recovering in my house where I brought h is family to keep him company. These are the documents he had p romised you. They should clear any suspicion the Kingdom has a bout you."

Lith and Solus sighed in relief at the news. Solus had been worried for Vladion while Lith just didn't want to take care of his family as he had p romised. Also, the documents about Orpal would clear his image to t he Royal Court, making his life easier.

"Malyshka, I need your help." He said, exploiting the unique o pportunity in front of him.
