Supreme Magus novel Chapter 2388

"The Queen was very nice to me, Mom. She even taught me how to dance." Leria was on cloud nine ever since the Royals had let her step on their feet to show her the basic moves.

"You deserve that, sweetie pie." Rena ruffled Leria's hair.

"Now our family has a Magus and two Great Mages. Ancient households with dozens of members can't say the same. The Verhens are now officially a magical bloodline."

"And I'm still an extra whose last name isn't even worth remembering." Senton puffed out his chest in mock pride. "What? We are back home, now. I'm allowed to complaint."

Rena was glaring at him, prompting his defense and starting a quarrel that quickly forced them to move into her room to not ruin the evening for everyone.

"Don't worry Leria. Even if you are just a member of the branch family of the Verhen Household, you'll always be my favorite niece." Aran used a grave tone to banter about him belonging to the main bloodline.

"Please, you are younger than me. You are not my uncle, more like a little, dumb brother." Leria exploited her seniority and being taller to pat his head like a dog and look down on him.

"Mom, Leria is being mean again!"

"Mom, Aran is talking smack about Dad again!" _{freewebnøvel.coɱ}

"Gods, how long for that milk?" Elina asked. "What if they go on like this the whole night?"

"Unlikely." Raaz chuckled while pointing behind her.

The kids had sat on a couch to rest their feet and had instantly fallen asleep. They weren't used to staying up so late and the many emotions of the night had overwhelmed them the moment they had allowed themselves to relax.

"I don't think you plan to wake them up so who's that milk for?" Elina asked.

"For me, dear. I don't think I'll be able to catch a wink otherwise. Gods, I'm so proud of our children and granddaughter that my hands are still shaking." Raaz showed his fingers to her, yet they were as steady as a rock.

Also, he kept yawning while moving through the kitchen. The gala had lasted long enough for Raaz to digest the news and the social interactions had worn out his still-recovering nerves.

Elina knew that he was bound to collapse any moment now so she rushed to put Aran into bed with both the suit and the shoes still on. They were all part of his own Scalewalker armor and she couldn't make it shapeshift.

"I missed you, Aran." Onyx nuzzled her snout against his face, making him hug her and turn his clothes into pajamas in his sleep.

"Aww, they are so cute, dear." Elina said, yet only bubbling and snoring answered her.

The milk was now boiling and Raaz had fallen asleep on a chair as well.

"Dammit! I was too slow. Tista be a dear and help me carry your father into our room."

"What about Lith?" Tista asked and Elina pointed at the already closed door of the master bedroom.

"Your brother must be dead tired as well and he has a pregnant wife to take care of. Cut him some slack and help your poor pregnant mother." Elina made a dramatic gesture that made Tista chuckle as she moved her father to bed in a princess carry.
