696 What Monster Did Lilith Create?
Lith's body shimmered with a bright light as pieces of the dragon flesh from him came off.
The shiny pieces then got together and a youthful person with long black hair and two big horns on his head appeared in front of him.
"Child…" The man said to Lith. "…you are not a dragon, yet you possess immense knowledge of the dragons."
"Speak, what do you desire?"
Having spent one thousand nights in this place, Lith had gained immense knowledge and that wasn't the thing he seeked.
He also had access to lots of resources back at home so there was no need for any treasure here as well.
So, what should he ask from this person? Lith got to thinking.
In his past life, he had read so many novels but all of them were about a poor guy rising to riches or some weak person rising to absolute power.
Sure there were novels where main characters were nobles but none of them had everything like how Lith did.
This was a good thing but also a problem since Lith would have some troubles like in the current situation.
After racking his brains for a bit, Lith got an idea and asked, "I can ask anything?"
"Yes." There was confidence in the ancient war dragon's voice.
Lith nodded. "Then, I'd like some hints to clear the rest of the relics. Do you have it?"
The ancient war dragon didn't say anything and waved his hand, becoming a glitter of light and flowing into Lith's glabella.
Information poured into Lith's mind once again and one by one, he was briefed on what the relics were, what he should expect, and some hints to clear the most difficult challenges.
Smiling, Lith was happy and after a few hours, when the one thousand and one night ended, he was taken out of the relic.
"How was it?" Mayzin was standing still and appeared to be waiting for him.
Before answering her, Lith asked, "how much time has passed, aunt?"
"Ten minutes." Mayzin answered.
Lith nodded. 'So a hundred days inside equals one minute here. Good, I might end up making lots of progress.'
Lith turned to look at his aunt and continued, "it wasn't as challenging as I thought it would be. There were some difficulties, but overall, it was nice"
Mayzin smiled. "I knew this wouldn't pose a threat to you. You're a Prince after all. I wanted to check if you are a spoiled brat or raised well. Apparently, it seems the latter."
Mayzin chuckled after saying so.
"Hey." Lith shook his head. "You shouldn't doubt my mother's teaching, aunt. She may not seem like she excels at anything, but trust me, she does in anything and everything, with parenting being the number one thing she's good at."
Mayzin laughed hard and patted Lith's shoulder. "Right, right, I know, you don't need to remind me."
She then composed herself and putting on her round glasses, continued, "in any case, I didn't want to see you get cursed so this was of moderate difficulty. If you go into the next relic, you wouldn't be able to come out unless you've cleared all the remaining ones."
"Meaning…"
Lith would need to spend a thousand and one night in each relic back to back and there were a hundred such relics.
So, he wouldn't be able to come out unless he's cleared all of it.
This thing made Lith have second guesses.
Only he knew how boring it was to spend so many days inside. Although his proficiency increased in Earth and Dark elemental energies, it wasn't worth it.
He could achieve the same outside as well.
Lith shook his head after his aunt finished and said, "aunt, your goal was to let me discover a treasure for myself, right? Give me some time and I'll find one myself."
Mayzin shook her head. "We don't have a lot of time, I need to train you on crowd control as well."
Lith sighed and shook his head with a smile. "Aunt, I don't want to spend so many years inside. It's a pain."
Mayzin tilted her head in confusion. "Why? It's just around three hundred years if we calculate the time for all relics."
Lith stared at her with a dumbfounded gaze. Did this lady here forget that he wasn't a Supreme Rank like her?
Three hundred years was a lot!
He would die!
He wanted to say this out loud, but looking at how innocent his aunt seemed and failed to realize it, Lith chuckled and joked,
"Well, I won't get to see you for three hundred years, that's a big no. I met my dragon aunt after so many years, I wanna spend some quality time with her."
"…" Now Mayzin was dumbfounded.
'This guy…' She suddenly turned alert. '…I really need to be wary of him otherwise he's gonna snatch me too in the same manner he did to Agalea and Lucifer. Shit…'
'…what monster has Lilith created?'
Lith's words were a joke, but it ended up making a Supreme Rank's heart flutter and put her on guard.
"Ahem." Mayzin cleared her throat, trying not to show what she internally was thinking.
"I won't continue unless you have a treasure on you and I won't give you more than three months to find it. If, within three months you don't get anything, I'll be cancelling our training."
This was slightly bad, but Lith ended up nodding his head and agreeing.
This was better than being trapped in one place for three hundred years.
"I am alright with it and will be back in three months."
Mayzin nodded. "Make sure you don't just pick up any trash and consider it a treasure."
Lith chuckled. "Aunt, one man's trash is ano—"
"Oh, elements, not again. Not the trash-treasure saying." Mayzin felt a headache.
The number of times someone had said this line to her, it was uncountable.
If she got a magic stone for every saying, she would have the same amount of wealth she has now. 𝑛𝚘𝚟𝐞𝒍𝑢𝓈𝑏.𝓬𝑜𝓜
Lith chuckled again, looking at the annoyed expression. "Alright, alright. I'll be taking my leave then."
"Good luck, and find something that is close to you. It would be best if it's a weapon, but hey, it works even if it's just a simple rock that you find valueable." Mayzin adviced before Lith left.
Lith nodded and vanished from Star Dragon City.
He was back in Nightingale again and stayed there for a week, researching the places where there were inheritances or just something mysterious.
It didn't take long for him to find out that there was an odd fluctuation coming from a gate that was opened up.
It was said that the people who went inside, came out unscathed. They had no memories of their encounter and even after multiple checks, they seemed to be fit and fine with no problems.
These people were put under watch, but even after many years, nothing of note happened to them and they were perfectly fine.
Finding it odd and mysterious, Lith decided to give this gate a go.
He anyway was going to explore these gates sooner or later, now he found a good excuse for it and could go.
Before leaving, Lith called his boys to see if they were free or involved in some work.
Apparently, they were busy, but for Lith, they made time and said that they were on their way to wherever he was going.
Lith had a good laugh at this thing and shared the gate's coordinates with them.
He then went to get Ren from his mothers who were now Lucifer's girls.
Lucifer had become their godmother and was taking good care of them.
From Lilith, he got to know that Lucifer now watched anime together with her girls and apparently, just like the mother, the daughters were starting to become otaku neets as well.
For obvious reasons, Lucifer had stopped roaming around nude and wore clothes. She also stopped masturbating because she was surrounded by her girls.
Just last week, she complained to his mother about how hard it was to go for so many days without masturbating.
Also, she had to make lots of excuses to her girls and at this point, it had become so obvious that they probably knew what their godmother did in seclusion.
Lucifer was so worried about it and Lilith was having a good laugh at watching her suffer.
In any case, Lith got Ren back after he asked Luna to go get him.
His mothers were against it but eventually due to Lucifer, they complied.
Now, along with Ren, Lith was on his way to mysterious gate.
