Chapter 1542 - New Life (Part 2)

Yet now I believe that both of my parents’ names would be an ill omen." Thrud replied.

"My father was a great King. A genius mage who created Body Sculpting and saved countless lives as a healer, yet he also caused the death of too many people, including himself.

"My mother spent her late life on the run like a criminal and in the end, she died of heartbreak. I don’t want my child to suffer from either of those fates."

"Our child." Jormun said. "And I agree. Any other option?"

"Well, then I would like to give him your name-"

"No way.. I spent over half of my life as a prisoner just to be enslaved. Neither of my names is worth passing." Jormun cut her short.

"Then I have no ideas." Thrud sighed. "The Headmaster brought us together, but naming our child like him makes me want to puke. Sevenus is just a monster."

"Agreed." Jormun said, making Hystar want to add him to the hit list, just to discover that the Emerald Dragon was covered by Arthan’s orders as well.

"Then what about Valeron? He’s the first of his kind, maybe even the future King of the Griffon Kingdom. If we want to raise a happy man who will achieve everything that he sets out to do, Valeron is the most fitting name I can think of."

"Valeron, the First King. Again." Thrud chuckled as color and strength returned to her body thanks to her vortex sucking the surrounding world energy in. "I like it."

Then, the baby started to cry, shapeshifting and clawing non-stop no matter what Jormun did in the attempt to calm Valeron down.

"Dude, you might be powerful, but you sure are dumb." Iata said while taking the baby off the Emerald Dragon’s hands.

She wrapped the baby with a warm cloth to stop Valeron’s movements and then gave him back to Thrud who held him close to her bosom. The crying instantly stopped and Jormun felt like a mindless brute.

"The first thing about babies that my mother taught me is that they spend months in a warm and dim place, listening to the same music over and over again. Once they are born, the world is too bright, cold, and noisy for them." The Scorpicore had veiled Valeron’s eyes with a bit of darkness.

"That explains the cloth and your spell." Jormun said. "What music are you talking about?"

"The beating of his mother’s heart." Iata said, pointing at the little Valeron shapeshifting into his more comfortable human form and falling asleep.

Blood Desert, lunchtime.

"Thank you very much, Grandma." Lith said while cutting the oddest-looking steak he had ever seen and inwardly praying that it would taste good. "I haven’t sleep so well ever since Mirim died."

"You are welcome, my child. Now eat to your heart’s content or your Tiamat form will never develop completely." Salaark said with a smile.

After visiting her palace and becoming familiar with his new environment, Lith and Solus had started working on the Davross until they had become too tired to do anything but sleep.
