Supreme Magus novel Chapter 3743

Chapter 3743: Manaron (Part 2)

"No problem, dear." Elina replied, making him groan.

"What do you mean, I’m welcome to come along, but I’ll have to pay my own tab, Lith?" Tista protested, since she was the only one to whom he had applied such terms.

"Well, the last time we came here, you and Bodya alone were worth half the tab." Lith grunted. "This is a family dinner, and as far as I know, he’s not part of our family."

"Why are you cutting me off, then?" She grunted back. "Are you disowning me or what?"

"You already owe me a pile of Adamant, big sis." Lith’s eyes narrowed. "You’ve maxed out your credit with me until you start paying me back."

Driven into the corner, Tista could only resort to Forbidden Magic.

"Mom, Lith is being mean to me! He’s not buying me food!"

"Please." He scoffed. "You are a grown-up woman. This kind of trick doesn’t work..."

Lith’s voice trailed off as he met his mother’s pained expression.

"Are you really going to leave your sister home just to save a few coins?" Elina asked.

"Mom, it’s a few gold coins, not coppers!" He replied. "Also, she wants to bring her boyfriend along. Why should I pay for them?"

"Because this is a family dinner and your sister is family." Elina said. "As for Bodya, you are right. You don’t have to pay for him, but it would be nice if you did. He lost his family, and we are all he has left."

Valeron’s and Elina’s eyes weighed on Lith like a mountain. The baby boy empathized with the Niddhog, and Lith couldn’t stand the thought of souring his mother’s mood.

"Fine." He raised his hands in surrender. "They can come."

"Thank you, baby!" Elina took his face and peppered it with kisses.

"As long as you promise you won’t do this in the presence of witnesses!" Lith tried and failed to escape the affectionate onslaught.

"I can manage that." Elina chuckled.

"Don’t worry, Lith. We can pay for ourselves." Orion patted his shoulder.

Usually, Orion and Jirni would not have intruded on a family event, but without the babies or Kamila, the Verhen Mansion offered little protection against the resources of the Gernoff Household.

"Thanks, but it’s not necessary." Lith shook his head. "Quylla, on the other hand..."

"Hey, I resent that!" She grunted.

"And I resent having to restock my pantry every other day!" Lith snorted.

"Don’t worry about that cheapskate, babe. I got you covered." Morok said while looking at Orion, who gave him a "I got you covered" look.

Morok had plenty of money, but Quylla’s appetite scared him and everyone who watched her eat, including her parents.

’Maybe Tyrants are part human and part shark.’ Orion pondered. ’It would explain Morok’s fangs and my Little One’s ravenousness.’

"Don’t worry, Lith. I have my own money." Kelia said.
