Chapter 170 Astra’s worries



Chapter 170 Astra’s worries

Elara accepted Vaan kiss, closed her eyes, and let her body loose, this time, Vaan didn’t end with a simple lip touch either, with alcohol controlling half of his actions, he moved forward and started gently sucking Elara’s lower lip, Elara found it strange, it was a new sensation for her.

Normally, she would have jumped away in panic, right now, however, she reacted differently.

As Vaan continued to suck her lower lip, she stayed still, trying to process what was this strange sensation she was feeling.

Her eyes were closed so she couldn’t see anything, this made it easier for her to understand how her body was reacting to Vaan’s action, but suddenly, just as Elara believed that she would understand what she was feeling, Vaan stopped and moved away.

The rhythm was broken, Elara furrowed her brows as she slowly opened her eyes and found Vaan staring at her. The two looked at each other for a while, and then suddenly, Elara moved her mouth towards Vaan, touching his lips with hers.

And she didn’t stop here, copying Vaan’s actions, she started sucking Vaan’s lips, Vaan was taken aback, he never thought Elara would be this proactive, of course, he didn’t fail to seize this chance either, as Elara continued to kiss him aggressively, his hand moved, sliding into Elara’s dress, directly touching her abdomen.

Elara momentarily paused, but realizing that her body actually felt good as Vaan touched her, she moved her hand under her dress as well, keeping it right above Vaan’s. It was probably her way of ensuring that Vaan didn’t move his hand away.

A big smile appeared on Vaan’s face, then, he moved his hand up towards Elara’s breasts, but before he could continue any further,

“A kiss was alright, but don’t you dare go any further.

At least not until you two are married.”

Astra spoke up. She knew the children were drunk, so their actions were a bit inappropriate, she still allowed that because she could see that the two had genuine feelings for each other, this, however, was taking it too far.

Astra waved her hand and suddenly, both Elara and Vaan passed out. She then stood up from her chair, looking around, she noticed that her room was much messier than it should be, so she waved her hand again and everything started going back to its place and the next minute, Astra’s room was as good as new.

As she was done with all that, Astra focused on the two troubling children sleeping in front of her, she carried them one by one and placed them on her bed, she on the other hand, walked towards her study room and started searching for a book.

She needed to look into these ‘Spirits’ Vaan was able to see.

Beings that she didn’t even know existed, beings with knowledge so advanced that she, the Head of the Strongest Magic Family in the entire world, has no explanation to things they make possible.

She had hidden it before since she didn’t wish to interrupt her child’s breakthrough and their little party, now however, Astra couldn’t help but feel that something was wrong.

Her head was filled with countless questions.

Where did such beings come from?

Why can only her child see them?

How is their Magic knowledge so Advanced? And if their Magic really is this advanced, then why has no one ever heard of them? Why have they not appeared in front of the world? Why are they… hiding…?

Who are they hiding from?

And if they had been hiding all this time, why appear in front of her child?

What were they planning?

So many questions, Astra, however, had no answer to any of these questions and she didn’t like this helpless feeling. Therefore, she decided to look into the matter herself, this time, much more seriously than ever before.

Thinking about all this, Astra’s fingers finally stopped on a certain book, a deep red colored book with a thick cover, yellowish papers showing how old the book was but as old as it was, there was not even a single speck of dust on it. This showed how well Astra maintained her books, that, however, was not the focus today.

The main focus of the book was the golden-colored text engraved on its cover.

It was not the normal language most people in Agresia used, it was the Dragon Tongue, the language of the Dragons.

Normally, Mages look forward to learning other not-so-popular languages since it opened up a few chances for them to learn new spells that are written in those languages. The Dragon Tongue, however, was a different case.

The Magic the Dragons’ used, although absurdly strong, was not something Humans could copy or comprehend, after all, the Dragons didn’t need any Magic Circles to cast spells, they could use Magic just from their words alone.

Learning their language was a thankless job and almost everyone, even the Mages, who craved knowledge, avoided it considering how complicated the language was, it simply wasn’t worth the effort.

In the entire Vesta Family, only a few could actually read the Dragon Tongue, after all, there were not many maniacs who were willing to put in the effort to learn it, Astra, however, was one such maniac.

Her keen interest in Dragon’s literature and their history led her to read about them, even going as far as learning the complicated language. She enjoyed reading about the world from the Dragon’s perspective, she actually wanted to get close to the race who lived far longer than any humans, her dreams, however, were not fulfilled.

The only humans the Dragons ever talked to were the ones who followed the God of Light, as for the other Humans, the Dragons disdained them, especially mages, who were often out to hunt them for their body parts, wanting to conduct a study on them.

Due to this, Astra couldn’t gather many books related to Dragons and their history, now, however, things were different.

At first, it was only her curiosity, reading the Dragon literature was nothing more than a way to spend her free time, now, however, Astra wanted to read the Dragon history because she needed answers.

She believed that as the most knowledgeable race, Dragons would definitely know about these ‘spirits’ Vaan was talking about. Therefore, Astra decided to start her investigation from the Dragons and their text, trying to find if there were any mentions of beings similar to what Vaan had mentioned.

Thinking about all this, Astra momentarily closed her eyes, then, after a small sigh, she sat down and started reading the Book she was holding.

Time passed and the next day’s sun rose up, however, the craze of the Elemental Clash didn’t go down, almost the entire city talked about the couple who dominated the Elemental Clash, some were in awe, shocked by Vaan and Elara’s performance, while a few tried to compare the two of them and tried to figure out who was better.

“Oh come on, why is this even a question, it is obvious that Lady Elara is better. Young Master Vaan may be strong and the way he showed his dominance yesterday was definitely shocking, however, you can’t ignore the fact that he is still 20 years old and was up against 2nd Circle Mages.

Lady Elara, on the other hand, while only being a year older than him, was up against 4th Circle Mages and even then, she won!

She won against 4th Circle Mages, some of whom were more than 70 years old!

That is what you call true talent.

How can you possibly compare her with anyone?

She is pretty much a second Lady Astra!”

“Haaah? Why are you completely ignoring the Advance Circles Young Master Vaan created? Do you even realize what sort of insane advantage those Circles hold? So what if Lady Elara is a 4th Circle Mage at 21? All that would do it that she would become a 7th Circle Mage sooner than most mages,

But have you ever considered what would happen once Young Master Vaan becomes a 7th Circle Mage with his Advanced Circles? Can you imagine how strong Young Master Vaan would be? He would be the strongest Advanced Mage in the entire world!

How can you compare someone like that to… anyone?

Heck, even Lady Astra would have no choice but to admit that the 7th Circle Young Master Vaan would be stronger than her.

And I bet she would be proud of that fact as well.”

There were two popular opinions, both valid in their own regard, however, there was one thing that most people forgot,

“Why even bother comparing the two? Both of them would be husband and wife in the future, rather than talking about who is better, just think about how strong the two would be,

As a team.”

“…” action

“…”

The entire room turned silent.

The team of Vaan and Elara…

Just how strong would that be?

Well, the entire world would know the answer to that question soon because…

“Vaan, Elara.”

Astra called out.

“Yes, mother,” Vaan spoke, waiting for his mother to continue. Elara standing beside her was listening as well.

“Get ready, the two of you will be going to the Agresia Academy.”
