Chapter 1121: Cap 1119: Eclipse Progenitor Part 2

We were taken to the throne room where we found Arash who disappeared the moment the door opened to take his daughter in his arms with a big smile on his face.

"You look great, every day that passes you look more like your mother." (Arash)

"Dad, we can talk later" (Nix)

"But I missed you so much" (Arash)

"Sir, we have other people present." (Ortiz)

"Everyone here is a person who doesn't like formalities, so don't worry, Ortiz." (Arash)

"What an idiot father." (Caitlyn)

"Come my daughter, I want to know everything that happened since we separated." (Arash)

"..." (I)

Before anyone could say anything, Arash was already walking Nix in his arms out of the throne room.

He didn't even greet anyone, he simply ignored everyone giving attention only to his daughter, her selfishness was blatant and I didn't care, I know how important Nix is to him.

Without having the Dragon Emperor say what he was supposed to about the Ceremony, Ortiz stood still with his eyes open not knowing what to do before heaving a sigh and leading everyone to our chambers.

On the way, he apologized because of Arash's behavior, but it wasn't necessary, Arash did it knowing that none of the people accompanying me would care about this behavior.

Arash seems a little impulsive, but he's not an idiot, his insouciance just goes to show that we still have plenty of time until this ceremony I'm supposed to attend.

When we were all alone in an empty room inside the Castle of Dragons, I followed Magnus to another room being guided by him, it was the room with the statues where we were earlier.

Magnus in his Human form has many of my traits to the point of looking like Nix's brother as the two share brown skin color, red hair, and different colored eyes.

Magnus was 5'7 tall and imposing with a toned body with muscles worthy of a warrior, the way he carries himself is also normal most of the time.

One thing I noticed was his nervousness from the moment we arrived at the castle, it was also the first time he left the Dungeon and the floor where he has been training all this time.

It seems that none of the Dragons recognized him, but his nervousness was something I clearly noticed the whole way, especially when we passed this hall full of statues earlier.

"You don't need to be so nervous." (I)

"I know, but I thought someone might" (Magnus)

"The only one who noticed was Arash, but he should have known in advance, I don't see Luminus failing to tell him about your situation." (I)

I noticed Arash's gaze shift for a second from Nix directly to see Magnus, that's enough for me to know, for sure he noticed who Magnus really is or was.

"But why did you want to talk to me?" (I)

"I wanted to talk about Mabel." (Magnus)

"If you're going to ask me for relationship advice, you're dead wrong, you should go talk to..." (I)

"The boy is not wrong, young Progenitor."

While talking to Magnus, suddenly a female voice appears from a corner where a gray-haired woman was sitting with a piece of wood in one hand and claws protruding from the fingers of the other hand, she used her claws to scrape the wood when carving a little statue of mine.

"I didn't see the lady there when we arrived, did she hear everything we said?" (I)

"Mostly, I was thinking about something else and I didn't see it when they came in, I just started to pay attention to how much your son panicked explaining."

"Honored be Zadiris, Elder of Wood Dragons and mother of forests." (Magnus)

"(An Elder Dragon?)" (I)

"Don't be as serious as you were in the past, try to learn from your new Father." (Zadiris)

"..." (Magnus)

Magnus started to sweat and I can see her hand shaking, but I can't blame him, if this woman is indeed an Elder Dragon, from her words I can assume that she knows the truth about Magnus, which could put him at risk.

I look at her calmly, she's clearly strong, I can't say how strong, but at least she doesn't seem to be hostile towards Magnus and doesn't seem to have any bad interactions.

"Come, I have something to show you." (Zadiris)

As I walked behind her, I looked around the hall looking for something and it didn't take me long to find it, it was a statue that had the name Zadiris with the same titles and race described below, which Magnus called this woman.

"(No more doubts when her identity, the question is what does she want with me and why did she make a wooden sculpture of me?)" (I)

---------------

Pov Miriam (??????):

She would arrive today, and I had to wait for her arrival to follow the next step of Project Zenith, I still wish I had done everything differently, it would have been faster, but she was always excessively careful.

"Ma'am, your new prosthesis is ready to specification."

"I'm on my way to getting it fitted, I also need a new eye, when will one with the specs I ordered be ready?" (I)

"I've been told there's nothing we can do about it, your current eye already has the best specs we can currently use."

"(So if something like what happened in the Elf's forest happens again, I'll be without one of my senses again...)" (I)

"(My domain of Aura is still superficial, it cannot be used as one of the senses, I knew I should have concentrated more on that aspect during that 1 year.)" (I)

While walking to the operating room, I was making plans, thinking about each part of the plan, nothing can go wrong this time, our enemies are acting more and more in secret, which demonstrates that they are not alone, so this plan cannot fail.

"[Reporting to Base Leader Miriam.]"

"[The vehicle carrying the president has just arrived.]"

"I'm going to the OR, tell her I'll be unavailable for the next 3 hours and follow her instructions." (I)

"[Understood.]"
