Chapter 898 Back Home Part 2

"That’s what all those children’s clothes are about?" Dawn sat on Baba Yaga’s lap. To regenerate Acala’s body would take a lot of energy and she was too weak for that. Dawn made sure to preserve just enough of his tissues to not let her host die.

"Of course, dear." Baba Yaga smiled at the feeling of her daughter’s warmth spreading through her womb. She now looked like a beautiful woman in her forties, with flaming red hair and emerald green eyes.

Her voice was calm and wise, her body had the reassuring aura typical of good mothers.

It was the incarnation of those who had reached half of their lifespan. She had as much past as future. The form of Dusk.

"Children are our future and the best material to work with." She tilted her head, pointing at the huge boiling cauldron on the fireplace, filled to the brim with meat paste and blood.

"Have you heard about that Lich? Veeza?" Baba Yaga’s face was disfigured in a grimace of disgust while saying the word Lich.

"Yes. What about it?" Dawn asked.

"I’m really happy she failed. I hope the death of that imbecile and of all her followers brings my children back to the right path. How can someone be so stupid to want to rule?

"Why should a predator worry about the weak, spending their time to make sure that they thrive and prosper? Why so few of my children understand that the reason why so many Kings and Emperors look for immortality in their twilight years is that they realize that the throne sucked the life out of them?

"That they spent their whole lives amassing power and never really using it? I never intended for any of you to have a country of your own, to bind you with chains of duty. I just wanted my children to have a second chance at life, a better life.

"Why do they obsess themselves with the human way? What makes them so special? Among the five races, they are the most miserable." Baba Yaga angrily cut the thread hanging off the needle with her pearly white teeth.

"Because they have the greatest potential. For destruction." Dawn chuckled.

"Can’t argue with that." Baba Yaga scanned the area surrounding her hut, finding no human life form for hundreds of kilometers. "Why are you here, darling, and what about your new flesh suit? Is this living host thing a new phase or did you just want to try something new?"

"Both." Dawn told her mother all about her imprisonment, her bonding with Acala, and all the doors that his petty mind had opened for her.

"What a charming fellow. I hope he treats you right." Baba Yaga wore a soft smile while listening to her daughter’s plans. Dawn was one of the few to have never disappointed her.

"He sure does. Now comes the best part." Dawn told her about her encounter with Lith and Solus. About what she had discovered about them.

"Golden eyes, symbiotic, and capable of drawing power from mana geysers. Sorry, dear, it could be anyone. I have no idea who she is."

"No, Mom, it’s not her the funny one, but the thing she is bonded with." Dawn had no intention to reveal Lith’s true identity to the Griffon Kingdom nor to blackmail him.
