1126: Chapter 1119: Swaggering 1126: Chapter 1119: Swaggering “I’m sorry, Mom…” Luo’er said, lowering his head in sha.
“Mom doesn’t bla you, just the unpredictability of life.
You’ve grown up and have your own career to pursue.
I can’t bind you for a lifeti, and I have my own matters to attend to as well,” Nina said emotionally.
“Mom…” Luo’er was so moved that he could only bow his head deeply.
“Enough now, no tears in front of others.
Let see how my godson and goddaughter are doing,” Nina said with a smile and walked towards Tangmo and the others.
“Your mother really is charismatic, no wonder you always miss her,” Xia Yue said with a smile, walking up to stand beside Luo’er.
“Mom has always been like this, willing to give up everything for the sake of family,” Luo’er said with his head lowered.
“Are you still not ready to tell her about your future plans?” Xia Yue asked.
“I’ll tell her later, please don’t interfere,” Luo Chuan replied.
“I couldn’t care less about ddling in your affairs,” Xia Yue chuckled.
“I have another question to ask you,” Luo’er paused, then began.
“Let guess, it’s about Tana, right?” Xia Yue tilted her head and asked.
“What exactly did you do to her?” Luo’er didn’t deny it and asked seriously.
“If I said I killed her, you wouldn’t believe , would you?” Xia Yue asked.
“Of course not.
To this day, I can still feel her presence,” Luo’er replied.
“Heh,” Xia Yue chuckled softly, then pursed her lips slightly before speaking, “I’ve split her into a main body and several avatars.
The avatars continue to maintain the order of this world.
Ah, those people from the East, always dreaming of becoming immortals—if no one supervised them, it would lead to trouble sooner or later.
And as for…”
“Wait,” Luo’er interrupted Xia Yue, asking in surprise, “When you ntion the East, are you referring to the East Continent?”
“Can we stay on topic?” Xia Yue squinted her eyes, and her smile faded.
“Oh, sorry, please continue…” Luo’er nodded, looking embarrassed.
“As for her main body, I’ve attached it to you.
She can still continue to maintain the order of this world, but that’s about it, as her main body is now fixed and cannot rge with her avatars to regain her forr power.
This is the punishnt I’ve given her, essentially turning her into your slave…” Xia Yue explained.
“Isn’t it dangerous, putting her on ?” Luo’er asked, slightly panicked.
“Don’t worry, you won’t end up like Fulajie’er.
The reason Fulajie’er died was that her body beca a container for a spirit.
The relationship between you and Tana is rely like that between a kite flyer and the kite—you only need to hold onto the string to keep firm control of the kite rather than letting the kite rge with you,” Xia Yue explained patiently.
“I think I understand,” Luo’er nodded slightly.
“I’ve implanted an anchoring point inside your body.
Wherever you go, Tana’s main body must follow.
You might try to get along with her, so perhaps when you face danger, she will co forward to help you,” Xia Yue said with a smile.
“How do I get along with her?” Luo’er asked, perplexed.
“It all depends on your skills now.
Aren’t you great at wooing girls?
You could try to woo a goddess,” Xia Yue said with a teasing smile.
“I’m not that great at wooing girls…” Luo’er said, lacking confidence, and couldn’t help but lower his head to hide his blushing face.
According to Xia Yue, Tana had now beco a pseudo demigod.
Her essence was still that of a true god, but because of Xia Yue’s manipulation, she had to follow Luo’er, and in a way, she was no different from demigods like Fulajie’er – both dependent on Luo’er to move over long distances.
Under the leadership of Nina and the Priest, the group returned to Divine Wood Down.
It seed to make up for the Advance Team’s earlier, embarrassing retreat from Divine Wood Down.
Nina had rallied many Wood Elves to welco the group, seemingly eager to show off her son of Half-elf lineage.
As the agreents were signed, Ilanadale gradually opened up.
Nina seed increasingly open about Luo’er being her son.
She even announced it publicly now, as if afraid others wouldn’t know.
Moreover, this ti they didn’t stay in the original treehouse; they moved directly into the Princess’s palace.
The conditions here were far superior to those of the treehouse where the Advance Team had stayed before.
Perhaps because she knew of the hybrid’s tragic encounters, Nina seed to overflow with motherly love when facing the Advance Team mbers.
Whenever they asked, Nina was willing to beco their godmother.
So, besides Luo’er, Nina also took two goddaughters and a godson.
Of course, whether the goddaughters would beco daughters-in-law in the future was uncertain.
As for Cheng Ziang, he didn’t get involved, not because he didn’t want to, but because he consciously avoided it.
He already had a biological father, and recognizing Nina as a godmother would complicate family relationships, unintentionally letting Yalunte take advantage of Nina.
What mattered more was that deep inside, he still cherished his biological mother, the audacious Princess Odelanqi who had fearlessly sacrificed for freedom and love.
In so ways, Princess Lin and Princess Nina were similar – both princesses who fell in love with outsiders and bore children of those loves.
Unfortunately, Princess Lin was not as fortunate as Princess Nina.
Princess Nina, the heroic mother, had given birth to a son and a daughter, and remained in good health.
However, Princess Lin weakened during her pregnancy due to Magic Power Erosion, and she passed away without even seeing her son born.
One could say, in the more than thirty years since Earth first made contact with the Otherworld, the widespread, unexplained Magic Power Erosion directly or indirectly caused countless tragedies.
Being the Princess’s palace, even at night, it remained brightly lit.
Nina sat quietly on the terrace bench, gazing up at the almost motionless stars.
Luo’er lay on the bench, resting his head on her lap.
Nina occasionally bent down to look at his black hair, much like her own, and couldn’t help but sigh deeply.
“Mom!” In the silence, Luo’er softly called out.
“What is it?” Nina asked, affectionately running her fingers through Luo’er’s hair.
“I had a dream a few days ago.
I dread of my experiences over these decades, of the gorge where we once lived, of our final farewell, of my ordeals on Earth…” Luo’er’s voice seed sowhat low.
“Life plays such tricks, doesn’t it…” Nina said reflectively.
“I used to miss our life in the gorge so much that when I was brought to Earth, it beca my ntal sustenance.
In those days, that world was gray to , and only when I stepped through the Otherworld Gate and ca to this world did I see colors again.
Throughout this process, what kept going was the thought of mom,” Luo’er said.
“Now, we are finally reunited as mother and son…” Nina remarked emotionally.
“I’m sorry I couldn’t bring you better news…” Luo’er said guiltily.
“Don’t say that.
Actually, I should have guessed,” Nina said as her voice began to falter, “Back in the gorge, I had an inkling…
Luo Chuan and I, our destiny might have ended there…
The curse of two worlds, forbidding our love.
I, I…
I’ve been deceiving myself, thinking that Luo Chuan had recovered and was waiting on Earth to reunite.
But deep down, I sensed that Luo Chuan might never return…
I’ve always been clear about it, always understood, but I…
couldn’t accept it, and so I lied to myself every day…haha…”
“Actually, after Luoya was born, I decided to place my hopes on you and her, because I knew, even if Luo Chuan hadn’t died from Magic Power Erosion.
How long could he live, ninety years?
A hundred?
I am an Elf, he is human.
I’m from the Otherworld, he’s from Earth…
I’ve always been very clear, there’s too much distance between us, we could never have a perfectly happy ending.
One day, one of us would be deeply grieved by the other’s departure, and I knew, that grief stricken person would definitely be …” Nina said through her sobs.
