nAlthough Lilia was already getting used to the fact that her son was full of surprises the result of the clash between the attribute destruction of her Drage family and the golden light her son created was still over her expectations, complete obliteration!! the destruction element that their family was so proud of extinguished when it made contact with her son’s attribute.

nIt took Lilia a moment to react, she saw the little particle of golden light floating there after defeating its opponent and she curiously approached it, when Aster saw his mother getting close to that energy, he wanted to stop her but Rya interfered.

n“Don’t worry, just like me the energy that you get from Hyperion is yours ♥ so you can control it to affect or not depending on the situation, it will always follow your wishes so there shouldn’t be any problem.

nAster confirmed her words when his mother actually touched the golden light but she didn’t suffer any harm, Rya wanted to keep meditating so she quickly explained the basics about their attribute.

n“This attribute is called “Annihilation”, as I told you before when I cut something, unless I allow it that thing will never be able to heal or restore and the reason of that is the combination of this element and my sword intent which focuses on severing, a simplified way to explain it will be to say that I “sever the existence of the things I cut”.

n“Although the principles behind the destruction attribute and our annihilation are similar, annihilation belongs to a higher order, so there should be no problem if you practice the same manual as your mother… I know you have many questions but right now I need some rest so later I will explain you a bit more about Hyperion and the stars”.

nAster knew she was not lying, after all there was less light being radiated by Hyperion since she fought Alessia than on previous days.

nWhile Aster was speaking with Rya, Lilia was still wondering how did her son had such a monstrous attribute, back on her clan her destruction element was known for being the strongest in the history of the family, that was one of the reasons as to why many of the members of other family branches wanted to marry her since their descendants were practically guaranteed to have a strong bloodline, but her son… surpassed her.

n“Mm, this could be the result of the amplification inherited in the Wolfstein bloodline, no… if that was the case then Alice should have it too but I already tested it and her attribute is roughly on the same level as mine, for her I think the amplification went to her body cultivation talent since she is quite good even if she didn’t have the characteristic black hair of the Drage”.

nSeeing his mother still trying to find out what were the properties of the golden light Aster hugged her and then explained.

n“This is my attribute mom, I call it “Annihilation” although I’m still trying to figure out all its uses, I think I passed the test, right?”.

nLilia suddenly put on a cunning smile.

n“Yes darling, actually this “annihilation” element as you call it seems to share the same origin as the one, I use but… it seems way more volatile, so you will have to stay all the time with me ♥ until you reach the star formation realm where you would be able to control it better”.

nAster was speechless, unconsciously he had shot himself in the foot.

n“But… I’m training and experiencing the outside world and it is actually working I already reached the earth origin realm so…”.

nLilia didn’t let him finish his sentence, she looked at him directly with teary eyes.

n“Could it be that you are already getting tired of mommy?”.

n“That was a low blow” he thought, just as he was about to try to convince her, she put the last nail on his coffin.

n“Or could It be there something or… someone you don’t want mommy to see back on Ghaleria?

nAster saw the smile on his mother’s face and he knew this time he was screwed, “women sure have a scary intuition”, having accepted his fate he decided to speak with Lilia about Aria.

n“Fine you can come with me to Ghaleria but… I want you to meet my friend”.

nLilia narrowed her eyes a bit before asking.

n“Is this friend of yours a boy or… a girl?”.

nAster felt like a man whose wife caught him cheating, he coughed a bit and tried to calmly explain himself.

n“Ahem, she is a girl… Alice was against her at first but they are in good terms now so give her a chance, okay?”.

nFor some reason hearing that her daughter got to know this little secret of her son before her made Lilia feel a bit bitter in her heart so she decided to punish Aster a bit this time.

n“Well seems like my dear son has been really enjoying his training in the outside world, while I stay here alone and worried the whole day, so of course he will agree to spend some days alone with mommy to make up for it… right ♥?”.

nSeeing the smile that wasn’t a smile on his mother’s face, he could only nod while he internally thought “a jealous lover sure is scary”.

nLilia’s attitude took a hundred and eighty degree turn after seeing her son agree to her demands, she took a red book out of her spatial ring and handed it to Aster.

n“Well now that we have cleared that, this is a copy of the “might of the dragon king” manual, you can start reading it later but for now I’m feeling a bit tired so how about we take a nap together ♥?”.

nAlthough she was asking, even before he answered Lilia was already dragging him to the bed, seeing his mother lay down and waiting for him with open arms Aster internally sighed.

n“Fine, if it what it takes to make her happy, besides… it’s been a long day”, he hugged his mother and felt his consciousness fading away in her lovely warm embrace.

nLilia saw her son falling asleep and she gently caressed his hair a bit, she also closed her eyes while she thought.

n“Seems like that little girl needs some more discipline, humph not telling your mother about this new “friend” her brother suddenly got, but now that I got my dear son’s permission to accompany him things will be different”.

nAster didn’t know but, Alice was supposed to report to her mother in case he got friendly with some girl and since she didn’t do it, Lilia was planning to give her a “special” training that will cause her nightmares for a long time, but that is a story for another day.

n——–

nBack on Ghaleria Alice suddenly felt a chill running through her body.

n“Why do I suddenly feel unease?”.

nAria saw Alice getting a bit pale and she asked her if she felt okay.

n“Do you feel sick or something? Don’t tell me losing the game earlier made you like this hahaha”.

nAlice heard Aria laugh at her and thought “Humph I’d like to see if you’re still able to laugh when mother comes over”.
