BXBX NOVEL Chapter 156 Presentations
"Mom, Aria let\'s go to the mansion, we have a lot of things to talk about".
Lilia nodded but while Aria let go of him, she didn\'t, now that she was here, then she would of course occupy her position as the "first wife".
Leaving that aside, now that she wasn\'t completely focusing on her son, Lilia noticed Eris, it wasn\'t hard for her to notice she wasn\'t here physically but on a sprit form.
"Darling, is she the human form of the nether vine you mentioned before?".
Before Aster could answer, Eris interrupted.
"Heavenly Rose clan, and I\'m not a first generation so my original form is that of a human… middle stage void manipulation realm on energy path but Gate transcending realm in body cultivation, a descendant of a Darkness Desolation Dragon, no maybe a variation, how weird", said Eris as she evaluated Lilia\'s current cultivation.
During the past three years Lilia hasn\'t recovered too much on the energy path, instead she discovered that even if they didn\'t have a proper dual cultivation technique, every time her son made love to her, her body became stronger so in a mere three years she reached the gate transcending realm… which already surpassed the body cultivation she had when she was in her prime!!!
Lilia felt the slight challenging tone on Eris voice and she snorted.
"Genesis manifestation on energy path… but your soul feels weird, are you a Soul King perhaps?".
Eris was genuinely surprised.
"Mortals aren\'t to versed on the mysteries of the soul, but you seem quite knowledgeable, I\'m weakened now, but in this spirit form which lost most of my powers, I was originally a Soul Queen".
Aster saw those two exchanging their achievements and he sighed.
"Ladies we can talk about cultivation later, for now let\'s return to the mansion… Eris you look a bit pale, I will give you another bottle of the same thing so you can recover".
Lilia smiled, seeing Eris following Aster\'s instructions.
"You can act high and mighty, but my darling is still the most talented one in all the creation ♥".
Eris ignored Lilia\'s provocation, but she stole a couple of gazes at Aster as she tried to unsuccessfully see through him, but no matter how much she scanned him even with her divine sense, the only thing she could see was a handsome young man in the star formation realm.
But she has witnessed with her own eyes how Aster destroyed someone three realms above him without too much problems, so she was sure there was more to him than what she could see on the surface, the problem is that unlike with Lilia where she could more or less see the origin of her lineage, on Aster\'s case she couldn\'t.
Eris came out of her trance when they arrived at the mansion where they were staying before, they all sat in the dining room, but the distribution was a bit different this time, of course Lilia sat at the right side of her son, Aria wasn\'t too aggressive on that aspect but she still sat on the left side, Alice sat next to her mother, Sarina felt a bit embarrassed but she made her position clear to others by sitting next to Aria.
To Lilia\'s surprise, the little girl which she supposed was the daughter of the woman she saw with Aster besides Eris, was now sitting on her son\'s lap, unfortunately her innocent happy expression made impossible for Lilia to get angry at her.
Aster noticed his mother\'s gaze on the new girls and he thought it was a good chance to introduce them, Eris was in a different situation than Sarina and Kana but she was also going to be with them for some time, so it was better to do things right.
Of course, Lilia wasn\'t his mother for nothing, without the need for him to say anything, she looked at Eris and took the initiative to present herself first.
"My darling likes to see us getting along… so let\'s start all over again, I\'m Lilia Drage".
Since Eris wasn\'t saying anything, Sarina stood up to continue, followed by her daughter.
"It\'s a pleasure to know Aster\'s mother, I\'m Sarina Eik and she is my daughter Kana Eik", she said as she pointed at Kana.
Kana curiously looked at Lilia, when Aster told her that his mother was coming to Prasil, she imagined a gentle middle age woman considering Aster\'s appearance and cultivation realm, but Lilia not only looked as young as Alice, she was one of the most beautiful women she has ever seen and she was also quite strong as she didn\'t seem to care about Eris at all.
"Mm?", Lilia noticed the curious pair of eyes that were looking at her and she smiled.
"Sarina, your daughter is adorable, how old are you little girl".
Although her mother already presented her, she properly followed the etiquette of a noble lady and slightly rose the sides of her dress.
"Please call me Kana, I\'m twelve years old… it\'s a pleasure to know big brother\'s mom".
Lilia couldn\'t help but pat Kana a couple of times.
"How adorable, unlike a certain daughter of mine when she was your age".
Alice listened to her mother and she shrugged, "she also likes Aster, so we\'ll see how that goes humph", she thought.
Now that the only one left was Eris, she felt everyone\'s attention suddenly focusing on her, speaking of Eris, she was impressed by the fact that Aster\'s words from before were so accurate, even with the little clash she had with Lilia before, she didn\'t doubt to try and get along with her just because she wanted to please her son.
"I\'m Eris Lyselle… it\'s a pleasure".
Lilia nodded.
"You see, that wasn\'t so hard, now tell me if you aren\'t the one that caused all this mess, then who was it?".
Eris proceeded to tell the same story she mentioned to Aster before, of course Lilia was paying full attention to her words, surprisingly although she hasn\'t heard of the clan from where Eris comes, she did recognize the ash nether clan.
"To think that there was still someone from that despicable race… alive".
Now it was time for Eris to be surprised.
"This is a mortal plane; how come you know the ash nether clan? Maybe some other family coincidentally used the same name".
Lilia shook her head.
"Purple hair, false disinterested attitude and an extreme like for deceiving others, I\'m sure they are the same ones that once tried to conquer the heavenly quadrants near the one of my family".
Eris nodded.
"I thought the spatial rift that dragged us was a coincidence, but apparently that bitch knew where we would appear, the main branch of the ash nether family has pink hair, but their secondary branches have purple hair… so the one that once appeared here was a mere distant branch".
Aster sighed, "This keeps getting more and more annoying, mom what happened to those guys from the ash nether clan you mentioned?".
Lilia leaned her head against her son\'s shoulder.
"They were annihilated by the forces of four heavenly quadrants allied, I was a genesis manifestation cultivator when that happened, so I didn\'t fight on the main battlefield but… according to the story, seven heavenly conquerors had to join hands to defeat four of them, and it was a tragic victory".
"That day, two heavenly conquerors died in battle… and the one that was considered to be the protector of our realm suffered heavy wounds, basically they were hard to deal with, that\'s in part the reason as to why the ruler families became even more strict, that\'s why everyone became more desperate to have a stronger offspring, because we realized there was a whole new world above us".
Aster wrapped his arm around Lilia\'s waist, the Drage family was also in the list but there was a long way until that moment arrived.
"Eris where can we find your physical body, now that mom is here, we can travel to any place of this planet in a couple of seconds, the sooner the better, we have a meeting arranged with that liar tomorrow after all".
Lilia smiled, although her son mentioned all that, she could feel the slight excitation on his voice and the warm of his hand on her waist, so it was clear for her, that Aster was also eager for the night to come.
Eris asked Sarina for a map of Luonto, she unfolded it on the table and after looking at some reference points, she circled an island a bit distanced from the continent.
"I created a little temple for me here, the corrupted have started checking the area near the shore, so it would be nice if we can go there right now".
Aster stood up.
"Let\'s go then".
Listening to her son, Lilia nodded and all the presents disappeared from the room, the next thing they saw was a sand below their feet and an endless sea around them.
"What a shame we have something to deal with right now, this beach is quite incredible", said Aster as he evaluated his surroundings.
