Chapter 601 The Noble Party IV Mothers

?TAP! Vasilissa landed back outside Arad's keep, patting the dust off her clothes. ^Of course, some would have survived and come for Revenge for Vlad.^ She looked at Arad's keep. ^Shall I hunt them down? No, the rest are weaklings that Arad and Gojo can handle on their own. Vlad is a slippery bastard. I should be looking for him instead.^

She walked back toward the keep. ^No, I should leave Vlad for them. I can't interfere too much.^

CLICK! She opened the door and walked back in, looking between the guests.

"Where did you go?" Tina approached her. "Master Arad and Lady Mira looked for you after the dance,"

"Sorry, mother's instincts. I left my son alone at home and felt as if I heard him crying, so I bolted out."

Tina remembered her daughter asleep upstairs, "I know how you feel. Hope he was all right."

"He was actually crying," Vasilissa replied with a wry smile, "Really sorry for leaving like that."

"Don't worry about it. Feel free to stay as long as you want." Tina turned around to lead her toward the ballroom.

^Now that vampire is dead. I can drop this body's power to a human level without leaving any traces that Gojo might pick on. No need to put him to sleep.^

Vasilissa walked into the ballroom and looked around, taking the chance to search for a certain old man. ^Where is he? That ape is dangerous at many levels,^

"You look confused," Aella sat beside her.

"Lady Aella!" Vasilissa gasped.

Tap! Aella touched her shoulder, "You danced with Arad, then left without notice. You have courage, don't you?"

"Sorry, I had to check on my newborn son," She replied with a worried smile.

Aella blinked, thinking. She lost her mother and might be one soon. ^How would I act if I had a child?^

"I hope he was fine," Aella sighed, relaxing on her chair. "But no monster would get through the dragons guarding the village."

"It's not just monsters. Babies cry a lot." She looked at Aella's face, then at the dance party, listening to the tunes Isdis played with her band.

"I do not know much, but dragons aren't omnipotent, are they?" She waved her hand, "Something might slip through their claws like a fly slipping past a guard."

Aella looked at the ballroom, "A fly slipping through the cracks." She could see a small fly going through the window. She wouldn't have noticed it if she wasn't actively looking for them.

"You might be right," Aella stood, "I'll ask Merlin to teach us how to create a massive tight barrier to block unauthorized entries to the local area. That should stop monsters, bugs, and humans alike."

"Arad," Mira approached and pointed back with her thumb, her mother, Lyla Belethor, standing behind her.

"Didn't I say it before?" Lyla approached Arad, sitting beside him, "If your mother isn't around, you can always come back to me. If you're marrying my daughter, then you're my son. That's why we call them son-in-law." She pulled Arad's head toward her chest, patting his hair.

"The strong, we care," Nina approached alongside her grandmother, "She also likes to have a word,"

"That's ours," Grandma Shir said with a smile, "The tribe's son,"

^[-I hear you!-]^ A telepathic message rang through their heads. Claug was listening from the outside.

^[-A dragon is better for him. I'll be his mother.-]^

Zephyr flew from Aella's head and sat on Arad's, trying to push Lyla away with her hand, "He's mine. I'm the oldest."

"You, small," Shir stared at her.

"Shut up, Speedy grandma. You'll be his grandma, so don't fight on the mother role." She instantly growled at her then looked down at Arad, "I've more experience and a lot of things to teach you."

"I can't have that," Out of everyone, Kinryuu approached, "Letting a chromatic dragon raise him, or a spirit could be bad." He looked back at two women[Silver and Gold dragons morphed into humans.]

"When metallic dragons reach the wyrm stage they lose the ability to have children so they focus on nurturing and teaching the next generation. Any of those two is happy to be his mother,"

The two approached, "We can't let him grow learning from the chromatic or spirits, can we?"

The two smiled, approaching Arad.

Merlin watched from the back, "Ara. How many single moms are there? Can't they find something else to do rather than to flock around my Arad?"

Vasilissa stared at them, annoyed. Her eyes glared at Arad and the countless women flapping their wings around him, "Can't leave him be?"

Lyla stared at her, "Well, he's ours until his mother shows up,"

"She's going to get an earful," Zephyr stared at her.

"Smack!" Shir swings her fist, "Bad mother, we smack."

Nina looked at them, "Grandma says she'll beat her with a cane for abandoning a child. Such behaviors are extremely hated by us barbarians who live in tribes."

"It's also that way among us dragons." The two metallic dragons added, "Leaving your children for no reason is one of the highest crimes. The father is just as responsible."

Kinryuu nodded, "If they are cognitive enough to decide to a make a child. It's their responsibility to care for it. That's why we marry for life, unlike them." He glared at the window where Claug sat outside.

^[-To us, it's better to let them experience the world on their own. Once they grow enough to hunt, they can leave the nest.-]^
