Supreme Magus novel Chapter 2162

'Yes, but she's going to be born as a regular hybrid.' The Emerald Dragon didn't miss the underlying accusation. 'I'm not going to lie. At first, I resented both children the same way.

,m 'Mogar took my blood without my consent just like Thrud took yours. Yet my oath bound me. The moment I felt the draconic spark inside Lith's daughter, though, all my reasonings crumbled in front of a simple, undeniable truth.

'She is innocent and she's part of my family. No ifs or buts can change it. After a while, I realized that Valeron is no different so I came here to make things right.'

'Thanks, Dad. It means the world to me.' Jormun said.

'Don't thank me yet. I've also come to make you an offer. Can call your w- the Ma- Thrud here, please.' Leegaain had a hard time accepting their relationship and how it had started, but he did his best to keep his opinion to himself.

'One second.' Jormun knew it, but pretended not to notice.

"What is he doing here?" Unlike Jormun, the Mad Queen felt no joy in the meeting and unlike his Generals, she had no fear of the Guardian.

Her deep white core had turned a few shades brighter and burst its aura forward as it channeled the power that the lost academy and the mana geyser below it granted to her.

The Sword and Armor of Arthan were extensions of her being. Along with the silver lightning of the Life Maelstrom they further amplified the tremendous power she held.

The Armor opened on her back, letting a set of gold-feathered wings out, her hands turned into talons, and small feathers came out of her skin, forming a sturdy protective layer.

"The white core turned you into a Golden Griffon like Tyris? How can someone like you reach such enlightenment?" Leegaain was flabbergasted, doubting for the first time in millennia Mogar's sanity. _{freёwebnovel.com}

Even one of his Firstborns would have trembled in front of Thrud, but she was just a speck of dust in front of a Guardian. Yet.

"Are you insane?" Jormun using that word despite knowing how much she hated it was a huge tell, but him standing between her and the Guardian while pointing at the baby sealed the deal.

"I surrender." Thrud fell onto her knees, dropping her equipment and shapeshifting into her naked human form. "Do whatever you want with me. Please, just don't harm my son. He shouldn't pay for the actions of his mother."

Normally, she would have fought tooth and nail, but she couldn't afford to conjure the firepower necessary to harm a Guardian without putting the baby's life at stake.

'Am I the bad guy here?' Leegaain thought, seeing the Mad Queen willing to throw away hundreds of years of scheming and thousands of lives she had sacrificed just for the sake of protecting her child.

"By the Great Mother, what the heck are you talking about?" He actually said. "Can't a grandfather visit his baby boys?"

"Do I have your word you won't hurt Valeron or take him away from me?" Thrud refused to stand up until she was certain of the Guardian's intentions.

"I swear it on my blood, now stand up and cover yourself, for the gods' sake!" Leegaain said, half-outraged and half-ashamed of himself. "Do you want to hold the baby or can I keep him for a while longer?"
