I must say, Mommy Vyvyan was different to the horde of dragons. The dragons continuously absorbed my mana, while Mommy Vyvyan could bestow with mana. Though she, too, was straddling my hip, I could feel a gentle and warm sensation that gave an urge to tear up.
Mommy Vyvyan gently ran her slender fingers across my face and gave a teary lip kiss. Elves mana was transferred via body fluids. She refilled my dry mana stores. She shifted her lips away from mine. Her tears fell pit pat onto my face. She gently caressed my face with her fingers. I could feel her bitter tears slowly coursing down my face. I felt Moms cold lips, but I didnt want to say anything, not that I could anyway. I was too tired. It was the first ti I had felt so tired in Mommy Vyvyans arms. I really wanted to just pass out in them forever.
Mommy Vyvyan gave a firm hug. Heartbroken, she whimpered, Son Son Mommy told you not to get too close to dragons and not trust them. Why didnt you listen to Mommy? If Mommy didnt make it here in ti, you really wouldve been ravaged to death, Son Son Mommy is heartbroken to see you in this shape
Mom
I gently hugged Mommy Vyvyan back and curled up in her embrace. She tightly hugged with an aching heart just as she did in the past. She pressed my head to her chest and stroked my head with slow and deliberate strokes. I was honestly so, so tired. It truly felt amazingly blissful and warm in Mommy Vyvyans embrace.
While tightly hugging Mom, I softly muttered, Mom Im so tired Im so tired
Mom stroked my head and bit my ear. Next to my ear, she softly replied, Mommy knows, Mommy knows. Mommy is right here. Sleep. Have a sleep in Mommys arms. Its all right. Its all right. Its all over now. Its all over now. Son, have a good sleep in Mommys arms. Mommy will always be by your side. Mommy will protect you from your side. Sleep.
Mommy Vyvyan hugged as if she was hugging an infant and humd a soothing song in a soft voice next to my ear.
This must be an elven song, I guess. Moms embrace is still as warm and gentle as always, but it feels distant to . How long has it been since I last slept in Mommy Vyvyans arms? How long as it been that I havent been by my moms side? I wondered.
I couldnt rember, as I gradually fell asleep. Mommy Vyvyans body was akin to a poison to . It was beautiful and intoxicating, yet could erase any will to fight. I didnt want to put on a tough front anymore. I just wanted a good rest.
Is she all right? asked Lucia, eyes on Irina, who was lying on the bed and taking slow breaths.
Irinas face was white as a sheet, but her arm had been reattached, and she was no longer in critical condition. However, Camille looked as though she was dead, as she blankly looked in a particular direction.
Its all over, Camille mumbled repetitively, eyes lifeless.
Sylvanas had always been under the control of her drug, yet Sylvanas didnt say anything to Camille. In fact, she didnt show any animosity. She just hugged Camille as she looked at her.
Its all right. Its all right. She can have another. She can have another.
While Sylvanas said that, she, too, was in writhing in pain when she looked at the crushed egg before her eyes. Nobody expected that the egg had taken form. Usually, a dragon egg wouldnt turn into an egg inside a dragons body within such a short ti fra. Unfortunately, the violent dragons crushed it with their beating. Irina didnt actually suffer grievous wounds, since dragons possessed powerful life forces; however, the dragon egg was utterly destroyed.
The future of the dragon race, their entire future and their hope at revival had been reduced to a shattered dragon egg. That was the shattered future Camille and Sylvanas saw.
Although their husband had a child with another woman during their absence, Lucia and Nier were out of energy to be mad. After all, they knew the reason behind it. Their husband was forced into it. He was forced against his will. Nonetheless, the child was now no more. The dragon egg had been crushed to fragnts, including the liquid inside. The liquid was probably the future dragon.
Not only was the dragon egg gone, but so was the dragon race. The dragons living in the forest had beco corpses lying out in the wild. Elizabeth had no cares to give for those who pleaded for rcy. She beheaded even the wounded. Elizabeth had a habit of going the extra mile with her kills. Whether they were dead or not, none of the dragons had their heads still attached.
The dragon race could finally be considered totally extinct. Elizabeth slaughtered all of the dragons residing in the forest. The race that originally had a chance of revival had been exterminated. Camille had ensured the future of the race, but that had all turned to despair. She blankly raised her head, but couldnt see anything. There was no future to be seen.
There were only three remaining dragons: Camille, Irina and Sylvanas. How were the three going to revive their race? Dragons, themselves, struggled to get pregnant, yet the dragons destroyed their own hope.
Its all right. Its all right. She can have another. She can have another. Irina is still alive and so is my son, which ans they can have another child. Theyll have another, stated Sylvanas.
No, there wont be any more, Nier interjected.
Nier worshipped Elizabeth, and you could say that she respected Vyvyan. However, she disliked Sylvanas, so she showed the latter no respect. Nier coldly said, She is not my husbands wife. Were his wives. You people want my husband to have a child with another girl in my face? Youre insulting right in my face!
This is for our races sake.
Your race has nothing to do with us and my husband. Furthermore, you dragons are the enemy of elves, arent you? Im sure that Lucia wont support you.
My stance has nothing to do with past favours or grudges. I just cannot hand over my Prince as his wife. That is impossible.
Lucia looked at Irina and Camille with a resolute gaze. It was true that Lucia felt so degree of sympathy for Irina given her current state. Regardless, didnt imply that shed allow the girl to stay with her husband. Nier, alone, was enough to put the nail in the coffin. Lucia, too, would never accept this girl.
That
Sylvanas awkwardly looked at the two young girls in front of her. The two girls refused to budge. There was no hint that theyd back down. Sylvanas could understand what they were thinking. She couldnt force the two to betray themselves for her own sake. She might have been able to make it work out without the two. Since they had spoken up, she had to take their opinion into account. If they didnt give their approval, the plan had to be scrapped. Nevertheless, giving up now would cost the future of the dragon race.
Camille and Sylvanas couldnt accept that. Sylvanas looked at the young girl in front of her and then took in a deep breath. She picked up the crushed egg and sticky liquid from Camilles hand. She then turned to Elizabeth. Elizabeth vigilantly retreated one step and seed to be ready to draw her sword. Sylvanas didnt mind. She, instead, said, Elizabeth, lets make a deal.
Elizabeth vigilantly watched Sylvanas as she asked, What?
Do you want to stay by your sons side for longer? You have the shortest lifespan among the three of us, right? Fundantally, you would pass away by the ti my son becos an adult. How much longer do you have to live? Fifty years? Forty years? We, on the other hand, have hundreds and thousands of years. Do you not want to stay by his side forever?
Elizabeths gaze wavered ever so slightly. Indeed, that was sothing that concerned her. The thought shook her. She didnt refuse Sylvanas right away. To the contrary, she silently looked at Sylvanas. Sylvanas knew that she could continue speaking after seeing Elizabeths reaction. She revealed a smile and went on, You could say this crushed egg is a collection of a dragons mana. This is sothing that even you humans desperately want. This can provide you with mana, and it can allow you to absorb mana as a human, thereby extending your lifespan. The elven spring water can only maintain your appearance. This, on the other hand, can extend your lifespan.
Elizabeth didnt reply. She just continued looking at Sylvanas. Sylvanas didnt continue speaking, either. Syvlanas just seriously looked at the woman before her. Smiling, she added, But, I cant give you this egg. Youll need to give an egg.
