Chapter 1052 Gods and Guardians Part 4

"As for Nalrond, making him dine alone would be beyond rude, and since we’re going to spend quite a bit of time together, we’d better start now." Friya said.

Nalrond didn’t like being on the receiving end of such blunt sincerity, but crashing the party beat spending all of his apprenticeship alone. He just gave her a small bow as a thank you and remained silent.

’Worst case scenario, I’ll pretend to listen and nod from time to time. I don’t know them or what they went through and honestly, I don’t care. The problem is that I can’t keep living like this. I must learn how to interact with the other races properly.

’I can’t use my grief to cut everyone out of my life.’ Nalrond thought.

Lith moved them all to the dining room, where a circular table set for six people waited for them. Everything from the napkins to the cutlery was the product of exquisite craftsmanship.

"Are you hitting on one of us or what?" Quylla said while appreciating the gold veined porcelain plates. "I didn’t expect such luxury from someone as stingy as you."

"Nope. I’m just showing off my tower." Lith smirked. "Solus can replicate anything we see as long as it doesn’t require enchanted materials so I can have whatever I want just by window shopping."

"You must be the only show-off who’s also a cheapskate." The Ernas sisters laughed in unison.

"He truly is." Solus joined them. "You have no idea how long it took me to have Lith dine in more than just a replica of the Verhens’ kitchen."

"I’m a creature of habit." Lith replied with a snort.

"Yeah, right. If not for Phloria and Kamila, his idea of romantic dinner would still be a well-done steak wolfed down over the Forge between experiments." Solus said.

After Lith took six pork shanks accompanied by Maekosh’s award-winning red ale he had bought for the occasion out of his pocket dimension and everyone started eating, Friya spoke.

"I know that my choice might be sound reckless to you, but this is my life. I didn’t tell you about it because you can’t possibly understand my situation and because it’s too painful." She had to admit that Lith had excellent taste in beer.

"Maye we can’t fully understand, but we can at least try." Phloria said. "I don’t believe you came to such a big decision out of the blue. You must have thought about it for a long time."

"Well, I never considered becoming a Harbinger until today, that was a desperate move, but you’re right about the rest." Friya said.

"The truth is that before your mother, I mean, Mom, adopted me I had all my life planned out. I would take the reins of the Solivar household and make sure that my family grew in power, establishing us as a magical bloodline.
