"And it should also give you the best tan you can get, but it's not body modification. My spell simply cranks up your natural resistance to the sun to the maximum. With a bit of luck, you'll get a darker skin than Selia." Lith said.
Kamila was about to scold him but his sincere smile stopped her. She had seen from his memories how much Lith had suffered after leaving Lutia. A bit of tan was a small price to pay if it helped him to overcome his trauma. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
"Fine, do your worst. You have my permission." She said with a sigh but Lith's squealing with joy brought a smile to her face.
"I want you to promise me something, though."
"Anything you want." He nodded in excitement while he boosted the melanin in her skin.
"As long as we are here, promise me that you won't use magic except that for cooking and doing the chores." She actually would have avoided that as well, but she was too lazy to give up on those cheat abilities.
"Promise me that you won't use Accumulation, Invigoration, nor will you study magic. I haven't had a good night's sleep for weeks and I didn't have a single day of rest for months.
"Now that we are finally back together, all I want is to eat when I'm hungry, sleep after snuggling up to you when I'm tired, and make love with you when the mood is right. I want us to be a regular couple on their honeymoon.
"After everything that happened, I think we both deserve some peace. I want to enjoy every single moment we spend together without magic messing with our lives like it always happens.
"Can you do it for me?" Kamila asked.
"I promise you that no one and nothing will mess with our honeymoon." Lith replied.

Meanwhile, in the stratosphere, Roghar was seconds away from reaching his destination. He had circled the globe in the opposite direction from the Kingdom, to make sure that he would cross from his own turf into Salaark's without passing over Garlen.
As he descended from the sky, he made sure to slow down enough to not leave a trail of fire that could alert a sentinel left by the Guardian of War along the coast. After making sure that no one was around, the Fenrir took his time to prepare all the spells he might need, just to be safe.
"This is as far as you go." Leegaain's voice almost broke Roghar's focus.
Almost.
"What are you doing here, old lizard?" The Fenrir asked while staring at the black-scaled Dragon.
His massive wings flapped slowly while the rest of his body floated in mid-air without oscillating. For some reason, his back was hunched and swollen, but Roghar paid it no attention.
"What I must, hungry cur." Leegaain replied. "I'm not going to let you disturb the kid. Not after everything he has gone through."
