Chapter 44

I looked at Zelal, who was lying motionless in a puddle of blood . I asked Vyvyan, “You didn’t kill him, did you?”



Vyvyan waved her hand . After cleaning up the corpses and traces of blood on the ground, she replied, “He won’t die that easily, Son . He’s old now, but his mana is still there, nonetheless . He was the most talented mage and possessed very pure mana when he was young . He is merely unconscious right now . ”

I nodded . Mom stroked my head, which healed my head, thereby erasing the dizzy and nauseous feeling . I have to admit that elven magic was sometimes incredibly useful .

“Mom, I want to leave with Lucia, since the hostility shown is so apparent . Of course, I want to bring you along, as well . I’m afraid that Lucia will meet with danger if she remains here . ”

“It’s dangerous to move Lucia right now . Frankly, her child has yet to settle down . Son, I had to spend two months resting in peace to get you to settle down when I was pregnant with you . Lucia is currently carrying a child she didn’t get pregnant with . The child needs to absorb mana for an extensive period of time in order to settle down . Therefore, it is best not to move Lucia at the moment, or she will have a miscarriage, otherwise . ”



I clenched my teeth . “What are we going to do, then? There’s somebody who wants to snatch my Lucia from me . Do I have to continue staying here? I’m very mentally weak right now, Mom . I’m serious . I crawled out from a sea of blood and mountains of corpses in the North . I just want to have a rest now . I think I’ll go crazy if this continues on . ”

“That won’t happen again . It won’t . Mommy will lock him up . We don’t have a dungeon as Elizabeth has, but we do have a prison . After some time, Mommy will banish him, so it won’t happen again . ”

Mommy Vyvyan looked confident . Confused, I asked, “Mom, isn’t the North gone now? Where would you exile him to if you do exile him?”

“Into the mountains in the Northwest . That is where your father went missing . There should be a massive dragon there if your father didn’t slay it . The mountains are rocky and a massive dragon resides there . Exiling somebody there is much harsher compared to the North . ”

Vyvyan bit down on her lip when she mentioned my father . It appeared that his death in the North weighed on her mind all that time . She would definitely go to the Northwest and slay the dragon if she was given the opportunity . However, that area was declared forbidden grounds for the elves .



Vyvyan wasn’t willing to leave her nation behind to go and kill a single dragon .  I, however, had no malicious feelings toward the dragon . The dragon was described as being very violent on the map, but the elves perceived the Earth Dragons to be a problem . The dragon never harassed the elves . It was just that elves who entered its territory were all killed just as my father was . My father went to pick a fight with the dragon solely just to have another head to hang on the wall as a trophy .


“Son, I know that you definitely don’t want to stay here with Lucia the entire time, either . I’m not saying that you don’t love Lucia, but you have another person to take care off . In addition you’ll lots of work you’re bound to have to attend to after capturing the North . You’ll lose everything you worked so hard for if you stay at Lucia’s side for the next few months . ”

I nodded . “I don’t mind . I just want my Lucia . I’m fine with staying here as long as my Lucia is well…”

“What about Nier, then?”

“I…”

“That’s why you can’t stay at Lucia’s side all the time . You can now, but what are you going to do once Nier appears before you?”

Vyvyan sighed . She then stroked my head . “Son, go and do what you should do first . Since you want to take Lucia away, you need to go to the North, and turn it into a place that would be suitable for her to nurture her child, right? Elves need a very peaceful place during pregnancy . Son, go and build a love nest for your wife first . ”

Vyvyan gave me a smile, and then clasped my face gently . In a soft voice, she added, “Son, you really need your own nation . You’re different to us . You’re a very special individual . If you want to live happily and in peace, you need a nation, like this . Son, go to the North and change it . Mommy can help you do everything, including re-establishing things to merge the North and South . ”

I gave Vyvyan a light hug . Vyvyan placed her hands on my back and gave me gentle pats . Softly, I explained, “It’s not just for Lucia . Mom, I’m not building the nest just for Lucia and Nier . I’m building it for you, as well, mom . It’s for you, as well . ”

“Uhm, Son… Son…” Vyvyan giggled softly . She stroked my back again . “Mommy will help you . Mommy will follow you, because I am your mom . I will always be your mom . I will always be by your side . Always . ”

“Mom, can you let the elven spring water flow to the North? If you can, then the North will be able to warm up . As you know, the north is very cold, since there is no mana there . ”

“I can do that, Son; however, if you want the elven spring water to flow over to there, it would take around a year before the temperature in the North rises . Mana accumulation is a lengthy process, for the river doesn’t originate in the North . Mana needs to re-enter the land . It takes a long time to show results . Also, the spring can’t be cut off from the North, because it will end up in the state it is in now . ”

Dumbfounded I was . That wasn’t the conclusion I was after . I thought the North would surely revert back to how it was initially, since it lacked mana . However, it required a long time and the situation on the elven side were dangerous . Honestly, I had no idea what the situation in the North was at the moment .

‘Is there any other way besides this one? What does the North need? The North needs warmth . Is there an alternative method if we don’t use magic? Can we use a human method to warm up the North? I don’t know, but we can try . Before that, though, I need to make a trip back to Troy City first . I need to go and see Nier . ’
