Shut Up Malevolent Dragon I Dont Want To Have Any More Children With You Chapter 702

[ … words ]

While Cecilia and her daughters were reuniting and catching up, Headmaster Olette took the opportunity to organize an event and delivered a speech.

Meanwhile, Leon took Grandmother Veronica to see the little ones.

However, Olette chose not to discuss Cecilia’s situation with the children.

He felt that such an important matter should be explained personally by Rosvisser.

Grandmother Veronica shared the same opinion as Leon.

About half an hour later, the three of them returned to the Headmaster’s office.

By then, Rosvisser and the others were already seated across from Cecilia, their emotions much more stable.

Still, Leon keenly noticed that his wife’s eyes were slightly red, and the delicate makeup she had applied in the morning had been smudged.

He stepped forward to stand beside Rosvisser, silently pulling a tissue from his pocket and handing it to her.

Rosvisser took it and nodded at Leon.

The three of them shared an unspoken understanding—words were unnecessary.

Grandmother and the Headmaster also took their seats.

Leon remained standing beside Rosvisser, knowing that his presence would bring her a sense of security.

Especially after such an intense emotional moment.

“Cecilia, now that you’ve returned, you should tell the children why you’re here,” Grandmother Veronica said.

Cecilia gave a slight nod. “Alright, Mother.”

With that, she turned to face the three members of the Melkvey family seated across from her and slowly began to speak.

“All these years, your father and I have not returned home because we have been searching for something of great importance.”

“It is one of the Primordial Artifacts of the Faemal Continent—Zeus.”

“The relic left behind at the end of a god’s life—the Spirit Crown.”

So it really was the Spirit Crown.

Leon’s eyes narrowed as he met Rosvisser’s gaze.

The two exchanged a glance but did not comment further.

If you are reading this translation anywhere other than Novelight.net or SilkRoadTL, it has been stolen.

Leon had indeed seen something about Rosvisser’s parents and a certain crown in her memories. Later, while researching ancient texts, the two had come to the conclusion that Cecilia and her husband must have left to search for the lost Spirit Crown.

Now, hearing it directly from Cecilia confirmed their suspicions.

“Primordial Gods?”

Isha asked, “You mean the deities who, along with the Dragon God Tiamat, created and shaped the Faemal Continent?”

Cecilia nodded. “Yes, Isha.”

“I thought they had long since faded into the annals of history. I never imagined they left behind weapons…”

Cecilia chuckled and shook her head.

“The Spirit Crown is not a weapon. It embodies the power of Zeus.”

“That is—the five fundamental elements: Earth, Water, Wind, Fire, and Lightning.”

“All elemental magic in existence today originates from these five.”

“Before his fall, Zeus forged this crown and divided his power into five crystals, each representing one of the elements, embedding them into the crown.”

“In a practical sense, Zeus is indeed gone.”

“But the Spirit Crown carries his divine power.”

“And along with the relics of other gods, it continues to seal the gateway to another world.”

“The gateway to another world?”

Upon hearing Cecilia’s words, Leon and Rosvisser were visibly startled.

Nothing they had read in ancient records had ever mentioned this.

If anything, they had only encountered the concept of another world twice before.

Once, during the Battle of the Ruins of Sky King’s Hollow, when the dying Shadow had told Leon:

“The last god of this world has fallen. The ruler of the other world is coming.”

And once more, when they had encountered Carl and his group in the Dwarven territory—one of them had the ability to open spatial rifts, and during their battle, Rosvisser had glimpsed through the rift into another realm—

A twisted, hollow, fragmented world.

Could this other world that Cecilia spoke of be the same one?

Leon fell into thought. He did not immediately bring up the Dwarven encounter but instead started with what Shadow had said.

“When we fought against the Ultimate Fear at the Gate, Shadow also mentioned ‘another world.’ Is there a connection between what he said and what you just told us?” Leon asked.

Cecilia pondered for a moment before answering.

“After that battle, Olette sent a report to Mother, who then passed the details on to me.”

“From a divine perspective, ‘cognition’ is of utmost importance.”

“The last god of Faemal—just before his own demise—chose to speak about another world.”

“That is because before the Dragon God created this world, there already existed a world that predated the birth of the Faemal Continent.”

“A world of chaos, disorder, and darkness.”

“In that place, time, space, and life itself are meaningless.”

“Even the creatures that dwell there are constantly trying to escape.”

“That place is known as—the Void Realm.”

Hearing this, Leon and Rosvisser immediately connected the dots—

The eerie world they had glimpsed in the Dwarven territory was the Void Realm that Cecilia was talking about.

No wonder Carl and his group’s abilities had felt so unnatural—they truly did not belong to Faemal.

With this new information, Leon quickly pieced things together and spoke again.

“So the inhabitants of the Void Realm have set their sights on Faemal? And the Primordial Gods used their power to seal the gateway that connects the two worlds, correct?”

Cecilia nodded, her gaze carrying a hint of approval as she looked at Leon.

But instead of praising him outright, she turned to Rosvisser with a playful smile.

“Little Lo, you married a very smart husband.”

Rosvisser’s face turned slightly red. She pinched Leon’s sleeve, lowering her gaze as she muttered,

“That’s… not true…”

While the couple had their little moment, Isha remained focused on the serious discussion. Without wasting time, she pressed on.

“So, because Zeus has fallen, the gate to the Void Realm is losing its seal, and if left unchecked, it will open and allow an invasion from the other world?”

“Exactly.”

Cecilia continued,

“Even before the Dragon God created the world, the ruler of the Void Realm had already set its sights on our land.”

“Chaos is synonymous with destruction—their ultimate goal is to cleanse this fragile newborn world in chaos.”

“If not for Tiamat sacrificing herself to shape this world, humanity would have long since become its puppets.”

“For tens of thousands of years after that, the Void Realm remained dormant.”

“But once the gods began to fall, the power sealing the Void Gate began to weaken.”

“That was when they started to stir from the shadows.”

Isha’s mind worked just as quickly as Leon’s. At this point, she had already anticipated where this was going.

“So, for all these years, you and Father have been searching for the five Spirit Crystals of Zeus’ crown in order to reinforce the seal on the Void Gate and prevent an invasion from the Void Realm?”

“Yes, Isha.”

At that, Cecilia suddenly asked,

“You’re so intelligent, why aren’t you married yet?”

Isha: “?”

How was that relevant to the conversation, Mother?!
