Supreme Magus novel Chapter 3502

"I was just starting to cook and I could use some help. With the whole family assembled, there’s a lot of work to do." Elina nodded at the many pots and pans.

"Got it." Lith wore an apron while Solus moved away from the stove.

As much as it pained her and Menadion to admit it, their "help" usually made Elina work harder since she had to fix their mistakes before the food was beyond saving.

"Thanks. I really don’t get why everyone is still here." Elina said with a beaming smile that didn’t match her words. "I’m fine. You guys can go back to your usual routine."

’Yeah, right.’ Lith sighed, conjuring Trion out of the Void Sigil to complete the family picture.

Rena and Kamila soon joined him while Tista did her best to keep the triplets, Aran, and Leria out of the cooks’ hair.

"I can help." Aran whined.

"I know, my little chef, but there’s only so much space here." Elina shrugged apologetically. "We have to move fast and your footstool would get in the way."

Aran was still too short to move comfortably around the stove, especially with the use of magic draining his focus.

"I know, Mom." He sighed, looking at his big brother who stood a head taller than everyone else with envy.

The meal was soon ready and delicious.

Elina reassured everyone of her condition and encouraged them to leave her alone but the sheer joy as she looked at the crowded dining room made her sound as fake as a six-dollar bill.

"Where have you been all this morning?" Kamila asked.

"Dya! Dya!" The babies yelled in Lith’s ears while climbing on his back with their claws.

"I was doing stuff in the Blood Desert." Lith replied, knowing the pandemonium that would have ensued had he used terms like ’adult stuff’ or ’not suitable for a younger audience’. "You know."

He nodded at Elina while she wasn’t looking and everyone understood the subtext about her aggressors and changed the topic.

"About the Desert, I feel terrible not seeing Salaark at our table." Elina sighed. "Tell her I’m sorry, and that I’ll call her as soon as I feel ready to face her again."

"I will, Mom, don’t worry." Lith then talked about the lesson on Creation Magic, arousing many grumbles around the table.

"Working already?" Raaz said.

"What about me?" Tista asked. "Am I not part of the family?"

"Why without us?" Aran and Leria asked. "We are Awakened now."

The triplets just grumbled. At three years and a few months of age, they were forbidden from practicing even the simplest chore magic spell. No matter what their uncle would reply to the others, the triplets were bound to be excluded from the lessons.

"How much do you know about Creation Magic, Tista?" Menadion took the hot potato off Lith’s hands.

"Nothing, but I’ve already reached the violet and it won’t be long before I achieve the bright violet as well." She replied.

"Then no one can help you." Menadion shook her head. "I can’t teach you because the magic I use is outdated by seven hundred years. You probably don’t know most of the runes I use and learning them would be a waste of your time.

"Lith and Solus, instead, can’t teach you as well since their knowledge is incomplete. Until they figure their own Creation Magic out and reach a deep understanding, they won’t be able to simplify the concepts enough for a neophyte like you to grasp the basics."

Tista lowered her gaze but said nothing.
