Chapter 1419 - Gains and Losses (Part 1)

The metal was solid, yet one second its surface was white with black veins all over it, and the next the two colors reversed their positions. Davross absorbed the light instead of reflecting it, changing its appearance as if there were two colliding forces inside of it, battling for dominion.

Two ingots weren’t enough to make anything out of them, but more than enough to start studying its properties and practice Lith’s Origin Flames.​​

"I guess you don’t neem my technique to reach the violet core, correct?" Haug asked with a sad smile.

"Correct." Lith nodded, putting the ingots inside his pocket dimension.

"Do you want me to keep the events of Lightkeep a secret from the Council?"

"Let them know." Lith said with a scoff. "Scarlett becoming a Guardian will make them realize their foolishness, while my becoming a new species will make them value me even more.

"I can give up to a little privacy if it means more protections for my beloved ones. If even Baba Yaga can’t protect her children alone, what does that say about people like you and me?"

Haug nodded and opened the door of the Travelling Tavern.

"I’m sorry if I can’t bring you all the way in, but Derios has dimensional sealing arrays. We have to walk a bit." Once everyone got out of the building, Haug stored it inside his dimensional item.

The arrays of most cities of the Kingdom stopped solely Warps, not dimensional items.

Lith didn’t wait for them and flew straight at the city gates and from there to the Distar Household. The hole in the wall had yet to be repaired while several Constables and members of the Knight’s Guard looked for the slightest clue.

Brinja sat on the doorsteps of the house, bawling her eyes out and not caring one bit for openly showing her grief. She wanted the whole Kingdom to feel guilty for letting her mother die a dog’s death and do the impossible to find the culprit.

The moment she saw Lith, she ran into his arms, hugging him tightly for an entire second before taking a step back and slapping him with all the strength she could muster.

"Where the f.u.c.k have you been? I’ve been calling you all night and day! Mom might have called you and you wouldn’t even know. What kind of hero lets the woman who took care of him for so long die? _{frёeωebɳovel.com}

"Where were you when my mother needed you the most?" Her voice was filled with rage and grief as she desperately searched for someone to blame for what had happened.

"Mirim didn’t call me. It’s the first thing I checked when I got the news of her death." The sadness in his voice made her fury disappear.

Without it, there was nothing holding Brinja together and she started to cry again. Lith embraced her, sharing her pain and grief as if they were siblings.

"I’m sorry for not arriving sooner, but I was hunting down the one who killed Lark. If I dropped everything to come here, it would only have made Mirim’s death pointless." He said.

"Did you find them?" She looked at him with a crazed frenzy in her eyes.

"Not yet. But I will." Lith said with a stone-cold voice that held promises of infinite pain.

"Soon?"

"Soon." He nodded.

’By my Mom, now I understand how Scarlett felt when Baba Yaga unlocked the advanced mode. I wish I had some kind of filter as well that gave me access to more information than mana sense but not so many either.’ She sighed.

’Maybe, once you go back being a tower, you can check if that interface you discovered after Silverwing broke in now has some other functions related to the Eyes. I doubt that Menadion ever planned on the tower having a portable form.

’According to Baba Yaga’s words, fusing your dying body with the tower must have been a last-ditch effort.’ Lith replied.

’I hope you are right, otherwise until my power core stabilizes, this form will be utterly useless.’ She said.
