Chapter 1906 Good Memories (Part 2)

"Not really. I can keep hundreds at a time. Just one is nothing." Lith replied.

"Can they eat and taste food?"

"Taste, yes. They can't digest it, but the darkness of their body should consume anything they eat. Why?"

"I was thinking of having breakfast with the whole family. Now that we are all reunited, we should celebrate." Raaz replied.

Lith stiffened for a moment. His love for Trion was second only to that for a kidney stone, yet he couldn't deny his father such a simple favor. Not after seeing the light in his eyes again, like the day Kamila had proposed.

"Sure thing, Dad." Lith said, forcing himself to smile.

"Lith?" Kamila tugged at his arm.

"Yes, darling?" He turned around to look at her, noticing the sadness on her face.

"Shouldn't you let Locrias and Valia out as well?" She asked.

"Why?"

"Because they are people, not tools. Because their families saw them die and resurrect in Orpal's broadcast. They must be suffering just like your parents. Imagine how must they feel not knowing what really happened to their loved ones.

"The only thing they know is that Locrias and Valia are in the hands of a runaway criminal that somehow controls them. You heard Trion. It's the good memories that remind him of what he fights for and allow him to resist the madness.

"Why don't you give your Demons the opportunity to make more good memories? They didn't die centuries ago. Their families are still alive." Kamila replied.

Lith pondered her words and used a construct to give Trion the same appearance and warmth of a living being.

"This way you won't scare Aran and Leria." He replied to his brother's silent question. "Feel free to shapeshift after the introductions. You are their relative, after all, and they will expect you to turn into a Demon."

"Do the children really know about you? About us?" Trion asked in surprise while pointing at Tista and Solus.

"Yeah. Believe me, as soon as they consider you a friend, it takes a lot to surprise them. They even have talking pets." Lith shrugged.

Trion was about to give him a deep bow, but Elina stopped him.

"No formalities today. You are not a Demon, but his older brother and my son." She said while finally embracing him.

She had longed to reconnect with Trion ever since he had saved her life in the Heavenly Wolf restaurant, but she couldn't leave Raaz alone nor let the two meet.

Seeing her joy, Solus teared up as well.

"Since today is supposed to be my day, can we please stay here?" She asked both Lith and Kamila. "Mom deserves to spend more than a few minutes with Trion. They haven't seen each other in years and have so much catching up to do."

Lith rolled his eyes and Kamila nudged him in the ribs.

"You are right, Solus. We'll gladly spend the day here. I heard that the lake is amazing. It's no beach, but it will do. Right, darling?" She said with a smile that didn't extend to her reproachful eyes.

"Right." He replied with a sigh.

"What about Locrias and Valia?" Kamila asked.

"What about them?"

"Don't be a smartass with me."

"Oh, gods, fine!" Lith conjured them both and the two Demons looked around for enemies.
