Supreme Magus novel Chapter 4476

Chapter 4476: Shared Grief (Part 2)

The meal was hearty and delicious, but the dessert was even better.

Lith served everyone a molten chocolate cake with plenty of powdered sugar and fresh cream. The heat of the chocolate and the cold of the cream hit the spot and filled what little space was left in everyone’s stomach.

"Gods, that was delicious." Mirias did her best to suppress a burp. "I’m afraid I’ll have to go on a diet after this, Magus Verhen."

"I hear you." Solus patted her stomach.

"Thanks, Mirias, but please, call me Lith." He replied.

"I wouldn’t dare! I mean, fine... Lith." She spoke the last word as if she expected to burst into flames, and when Mogar kept spinning and the sun shining, the Baroness sighed in relief.

"Are you sure Jirni is safe at the Mansion?" Kamila asked after they moved to the guest house for the afternoon nap.

"She said so, and I believe her." Lith shrugged. "Besides, she’s still swamped in paperwork. Supervising a Kingdom-wide investigation is a full-time job."

"I feel guilty just being here." Kamila sighed. "The silver lining is that Jirni has plenty of company and can join us whenever she wants."

She took a Home Stone from her dimensional amulet and placed it outside their room window.

"By the way, this is nice, but it doesn’t count as a date. Too many extras." Kamila nodded at the toddlers that had just fallen asleep.

"I never said it was." Lith smiled. "I thought that since I had to come to Jambel, I could use the opportunity to check on the Wyalons and Clila."

"I know, and it was really nice of you." She imprinted the Camellia, and its four flowers shifted to the icy-blue of the water element. "Where are you going?"

"I’m not tired, and neither is Val." Lith took the boy out of the crib and into his arms. "We can use a bit of alone time without Ely throwing a fuss."

"She’s so jealous and bossy. I wonder who she gets that from." Kamila sighed as father and son exchanged a glance.

"It’s a mystery." Lith replied. "See you later, and call me if anything happens"

He Blinked out of the house and then Warped outside the city walls. One more Steps from there brought him to the edge of the faraway woods.

"It’s alright, Val. You can shapeshift here." Lith said, and the baby boy’s hair turned emerald and his eyes silver. "That’s not what I meant, silly."

Lith shapeshifted into a human-sized Tiamat while holding Valeron’s hand, and the baby boy quickly followed suit, turning into a small Bahamut.

"Come on. Fly all you want. You are free."
