Chapter 854: Xedros (Part 2)

The memory of Gadorf the Wyvern struck Lith, making him reconsider. Xedros sounded more troublesome by the second, but Lith didn't have much choice left. The Wyvern was an opponent he could face or who had least had to respect his new master.

A Dragon, instead, would likely treat the both of them like bugs.

A sudden childish noise awoke Lith from his brooding, raising even more questions about the Hydra being so chipper.

"What was that?"

"Sorry, the little one is a real rascal and managed to snatch my amulet." She showed him an infant that couldn't be more than a few months old.

"I helped Selia during her delivery and it made wonders to break the ice. Sometimes I babysit her children to allow her to catch some sleep or go on a date with Ryman. Gods, I had almost forgotten how wonderful hatchlings are. It makes me wish to have a few of my own again."
