Chapter 3213 Baba Yaga’s Hut (Part 2)

"Kami, do you want to do the honors?"

"Of course." Another wave of her hand opened two small Steps from which milk bottles came out, making Lith groan. "You already had some quality time with the twins, mister. Now stop pouting and make up for the lost time with the babies."

Elysia and Valeron exchanged a confused look, wondering if they had rivals or new siblings they weren't aware of. They had both learned how another baby could appear out of nowhere at any time.

For Elysia, it had happened with Surin and then with Shargein and Valeron the second. One moment she was alone, and the next she had to share her crib with another baby.

For Valeron, it was less confusing since he was aware that Lith wasn't his biological parent but he had no idea as well why the number of his siblings seemed to change every day.

According to their mutual understanding, either parent could make a baby at will. Their chittering in Dragontongue, as they discussed the matter, was instantly silenced by the bottles' approach.

They were both hungry. Food always took priority over mere words. They could always resume the conversation later, assuming their young brains retained a memory of the issue, of course.

The two babies sucked avidly, only taking a few breaks to check on Lith with Dragon scales. They both needed a lot of reassurance before they stopped fearing he might disappear again.

Every room granted to its guest the mind-focusing abilities of the Yggdrasill wood, allowed to combine different spells that would not mix under normal circumstances, and had a durability second only to Davross.

As icing on the cake, the constant flow of world energy refined the tower non-stop, improving its physical and magical properties permanently. The tower never stopped growing, storing the extra mass as density until Baba Yaga needed otherwise and used it to increase the tower's size.

'Damn, this is pure genius!' Lith thought in astonishment. 'I have no idea what this tower can do, but using wood as the main material is not as desperate as I thought. Sure, it's no Davross and its starting properties are worse than Orichalcum, but its potential is infinite.

'Baba Yaga's hut is like a millennia-old white core who never stopped refining his body. On top of that, even though Baba Yaga only had the equivalent amount of a Sage Staff to begin with, the Yggdrasill wood is now spread throughout the entire structure.

'The other kinds of wood have simply rearranged their structure, gaining the Yggdrasill physical properties while retaining their individual magical abilities. Even though this place is famous for being a giant nursery, it's actually a sleeping beast.

'Which begs the question, Solus. Why is your mother's tower considered better even though it's made of "just" gold-veined marble?' The silence in his mind worried him. 'Solus?'

The marvel of the discovery was blown away by the returning awareness that she wasn't with him anymore.

Lith's heart clenched and his expression turned sour, but it lasted only for a second.

Elysia giggled as he dried her with a warm towel, reminding him of his duty.
