Supreme Magus novel Chapter 3574

"I’m afraid that once Zin understands more about Eldritches and figures out the real nature of my associates, I’ll lose her. The problem is I have no reason to refuse. Heck, even if I do, Zin can always ask Kamila to Awaken her. Either way, I’m screwed." Vastor sighed.

"I’m sorry for you, Zogar." Lith sighed. "If there’s anything I can do, just ask."

"Thank you, Lith. Zogar out."

’He should have told her the truth when she asked him to marry her before giving her his reply.’ Solus’ voice echoed in Lith’s head via the mind link.

’I know, but an "I told you so" rarely makes things better.’ Lith replied. ’Is Quylla still here?’

’She and the rest of the Ernas family. They have moved here with Jirni and never leave her side.’ Solus chuckled. ’We should turn the mansion into a hotel and make them pay rent.’

Solus was happy to have company and spend more time at the Verhen Mansion. The powerful mana geyser and the keep allowed the tower to remain active and hidden from the guests.

At the mansion, Solus was no different from a normal person. She could feel her body and core getting stronger as if she were using Accumulation non-stop. The fewer floors the tower had to rebuild, the more energy it focused on restoring her body.

’We’d better not. Over the years we’ve spent a long time at the Ernas Household. If they present us the bill for our vacations, it would be a devastating blow to our finances.’ Lith shuddered at the thought, making Solus laugh harder.

’Can I come with you?’ She asked.

’Of course you can.’ Lith replied. ’Quylla is our friend.’

He walked to the park of the mansion, where Jirni spent most of her time during the morning. She had been locked up in her own home for so long that she craved freedom more than anything else.

Dripha grew stronger and healthier by the day and there were plenty of people to stimulate her young mind.

Garrik and Ryla had moved back to the mansion along with the handmaidens, Ophya and Vyla. That on top of the several magical beasts hanging around the confining Trawn Woods ensured that mother and daughter were always cared for.

"Mom, I want a little sister too! Dripha is so cute." Garrik rocked the baby in his arms with love, but his words made his mother spit her drink.

"We’ll see, dear." Ryla cleared her throat in embarrassment.

"First your mother needs to find a good man, Garrik." Elina smiled, caressing his head.

’Gods, the only thing more awkward than giving "the talk" to a child are the questions he asks his parents until they do.’ She thought.

"But knows a good man!" Garrik replied. "What about my big brother? He is an amazing guy!"

More spitting ensued but while Quylla had to hold her tongue her parents stifled their laughter.

"A good man you are not related to, dear." Ryla blushed up to her ears.

"Uncle Lith, then?" Garrik tilted his head in confusion.

"I’m sorry, but I already have children and they are my priority." Lith looked at Kamila in a silent plea for help.

"He’s right, sweetie." She said. "A child needs both parents and Lith is very busy with Elysia and Valeron."

"I see." Garrik nodded. "A good man unrelated to me and childless. Uncle Nalrond, can you give me a baby sister? Mom just needs a special hug."

At that point, the Agni’s mouth was already empty.
