Chapter 1617 - Down The Memory Lane (Part 1)

After the stalemate lasted for several minutes, Selia lost her temper.

"Damn Lith for endangering my life in more than one way. Before meeting him, I had no intention of getting married, let alone having children. Also, if not for his enemies targeting Lutia, I wouldn't be forced to leave my home like this!" She said.

"Any successful mage makes enemies. Talent always arouses envy and grudges cannot be avoided." Protector said. "The same will happen to our children."

"Except that at least when he joined the academy, he was still completely human." Selia started to pace around the room, her worry increasing with each step she took. "Lilia and Leran will have to live with the burden of being commoners and hybrids!

"And that because you didn't bother telling me the truth about your nature. Thank the gods I didn't need a midwife for Lilia's birth, otherwise we couldn't show our face in Lutia without being chased with pitchforks."

Selia had learned about Protector actually being an Emperor Beast only after seeing her newborn baby girl in her hybrid form. The huntress had almost lost her mind, thinking that someone had cursed her and praying to the gods for help.

Only then did Ryman reveal his real form in the attempt to calm her down, just to make matters worse. Selia had kicked him out of the house for days until she had forgiven him out of the love for their daughter and the desperate need for help in safely raising a hybrid.

At those words, the flames engulfing the huge Skoll went out in shame. His anger faded as he stared at the floor, whining like a beaten dog.

"You are right. This is all my fault. Back then I knew nothing about human society and being a dumb oaf, I always assumed that you had already guessed my identity and that you were fine with it.

"If only I was smart enough to tell you the truth from the start, you and the kids wouldn't be in this mess. You would be with a good man and they would have a normal life.

"Because of me, you've spent years alone in the woods to raise our daughter away from a world that wouldn't accept her. I've taken so much from you that I will never be able to pay you back." Protector said with eyes veiled by tears.

"Oh, gods! I'm so sorry. I didn't mean what I said." Selia took the huge snout in her arms, happy that the children had not witnessed her outburst.

"If I really was unhappy with you, do you think that I would have given you a second and a third child?" She said amid tears while caressing his head.

"I regret nothing of what we had together, I'm just scared at the idea that in a few years we'll not be able to protect our children anymore. I chose to marry you not because I need you, but because I want you."

Protector shapeshifted into his human form to become capable of returning her embrace and letting her know how deeply he cared for her. He held Selia in his arms, kissing her with the same passion of the day when they had first met.

Even though they had been together for seven years, Ryman still couldn't thank the gods enough for the miracle of finding someone who truly loved him.

Meanwhile, at the Myrok Household, Faluel, Fyrwal, and Jiza Gernoff of the human faction of the Awakened Council were discussing the most recent events that had taken place in the Kingdom. _{freewёbn૦νeɭ.com}
