Supreme Magus novel Chapter 3344

Chapter 3344 Seeds of Progress (Part 1)

"It took me only a bit of practice to understand that magic follows the laws of physics." Lith said. "Laws I know and exploited to see farther than my peers.

"Also, Solus' memory loss was not as problematic as you might think. She had no preconceptions to disregard or habits to resist. With her wits and my knowledge, we reached further than any mage our age, even Awakened.

"Sure, we had no clue about high tier magic and specializations, but the White Griffon academy filled those gaps for us." Lith shrugged.

Menadion needed a few minutes to put together those words with the visions she had just witnessed and what she had learned over the years as a fly on the wall.

"Let me be clear." She said once she was done drawing her conclusions. "I still don't like you. I think you have treated my daughter and your parents horribly. You have stomped on Epphy-"

"Solus." He corrected her.

"Solus' feelings and deceived your parents more times than I can count. The good things you have done for them don't erase all the bad things you have done for everyone else.

"That said, now I respect you. You've gone through things that would have broken me and others that did break me. I'm not a hypocrite. I know that in your shoes I would have done the same if not worse because that's what I did after Threin and Epphy died."

"I know." Lith nodded. He was aware of Menadion's attempts to resurrect her husband and preserve her daughter's life, even if it meant using Forbidden Magic.

"I don't know whether to laugh or cry. My daughter deserved someone better, yet she survived only because she ended up in the hands of someone as bad as I am" Ripha looked him straight in the eyes. "Does Kamila know?"

"Yes. Everything." Lith replied.

"Lucky bastard." She grumbled.

"I know that too." Lith refilled the cups and the plate. "Is there anything else you want to ask or tell me?"

"I... no. Or rather, yes. Your parents. Do Elina and Raaz know you are not their son? That you are a vengeful spirit possessing a corpse?" Menadion asked.

"No, they don't." A cold glint flashed behind Lith's eyes. "And they don't need to. I've wondered for a long time if I should tell them or not. I saw myself as some kind of monster the same way you see me. Then, I realized I was wrong, just like you are now." "Care to elaborate?" Menadion had vet to digest the many revelations she had

received. Her mind was too messy to be certain of anything.

"I didn't kill the baby, Strata. He was dead before I arrived so I'm not possessing anything. This body is mine and it's born of Elina's and Raaz's flesh and blood. They know me from the day I was reborn here.

"They named me Lith after my 'miraculous' resurrection. They raised me with love and affection. I'm the only Lith they know and they are the only mother and father I've ever had. Knowing from where my soul comes would change nothing.

"They are my parents and I'm their son." The finality in Lith's tone brooked no argument nor did Menadion feel the need to.

"Why don't you want Solus to listen to this?" freewebnøvel.com
