Chapter 366: Chapter 130: How Many Good Mothers Do You Even Have!?

...

A chill ran down Lynch’s spine as his mind kicked into overdrive, racing as if pumped full of adrenaline.

’No matter what, I absolutely cannot let them meet.’

’Priestess Mother is a Legend of the Ancient High Elves. Although she’s only a soul now, judging by her previous attitude toward Necromancers, she definitely wouldn’t have a favorable impression of a Demigod from the Netherworld.’

’And as for Elegy’s Mother... in her eyes, whether they were Abyss Demon Lords, Hell Refining Demon Lords, or even Angels from the Celestial Divine Kingdom, she didn’t like a single one of them. She’d call for their heads at the slightest provocation, even threatening to devour their souls.’

Lynch could perfectly imagine that if Elegy’s Mother and Priestess Mother were to meet, it would be a clash of titans. They would definitely start a fight.

Of course, in terms of rank, Priestess Mother had been a Legend when she was alive, while Elegy’s Mother was a Demigod. A vast power gap separated them.

But the problem was, Elegy’s Mother’s true body was in the Netherworld. At most, what was coming here was a projection of her consciousness, with limited power.

Meanwhile, the Ancient Elf ruins where Priestess Mother resided were right here on the material plane. Plus, she had Sea Song, a Priest-in-training, as her vessel. She could definitely wield more power. Not to mention, she had the support of the newly completed Moonlight Well, giving her a complete home-field advantage.

If they really fought, it was hard to say who would win or lose.

But one thing was certain: if they started fighting, Lakefront Town would definitely suffer the consequences.

That would be a clash between a Legend and a Demigod Level being. One wrong move, and this town, which was built with so much effort, could be razed to the ground. It was uncertain how many of the nearly ten thousand soldiers and civilians in town would survive.

As the saying goes, two kings cannot rule one kingdom, and if they met, one would be bound to fall. That was a scenario Lynch absolutely refused to let happen.

More importantly, ’Who would I even side with when the time comes?’

’Helping one would definitely offend the other.’

’They’re both such good mothers. One gave me the Moonfire Ring and the Moonlight Well, and the other gave me Esther and the Hellfire pendant. They’ve both saved me multiple times in critical moments.’

’I, Lynch, might be a bit shameless at times, but I’m definitely not an ungrateful person.’

’I don’t want to give up either of these mothers!’

But the question was, what could he do to stop them from meeting?

’Elegy’s Mother’s consciousness has already awakened and is casting its gaze this way. With her status, "seeing" Lakefront Town on the material plane from the Netherworld would only take an instant.’

’And Priestess Mother is currently possessing Sea Song’s body, bathing in the moonlight, her emotions fluctuating wildly...’

’No time to think!’

In a flash, before his rational mind could catch up, Lynch’s body had already reacted.

He took a step forward and wrapped his arms tightly around Sea Song from behind.

!!!

The Moon Priestess, possessing Sea Song’s body, suddenly went rigid.

In that instant, her entire being, from soul to body, went numb.

’How many years has she lived?’

’From the end of the Ancient Elf civilization to the current era of the Human Empire, she had lived through countless long years and witnessed innumerable absurd and bizarre things.’

’But she had never seen, nor had she ever imagined... that someone would dare do this to her!’

’This shameless brat.’

’This boy who kept calling her "Honored Mother," this scoundrel who had so earnestly said he wanted her as his mom!’

’And now, he actually... he actually hugged her!’

In that instant, the Moon Priestess’s brain completely short-circuited. Her eyes went vacant.

Meanwhile, the surrounding core members of Lakefront Town saw this sudden development and were all staring blankly, utterly stunned.

Catherine’s eyes suddenly narrowed, her expression growing complex. Her slender fingers had unconsciously found the hilt of her sword.

Avril, on the other hand, covered her mouth with her small hands, her eyes turning a little red.

"Oh... Lynch, he... he..."

’He... right in front of me... he hugged Sea Song.’

A sour, numbing feeling instantly filled her heart.

As for Eleanor, who was exuding an icy aura, she just stared wide-eyed, looking from one person to the next, completely baffled.

As for Aus.

Aus’s eyes were shining.

His hand had already subconsciously reached for his waist, where he kept his never-without-it "Historical Record."

’Although he didn’t start writing furiously on the spot for fear of getting beaten up, a thrilling, multi-thousand-word article was already brewing in his mind!’

’My brother, the Dominator of the Undead...’

’On the twentieth day of the Frost Moon in the Imperial Calendar, during the activation ceremony for the Moonlight Well...’

’In front of all the core members of Lakefront Town!’

’In front of the bright moon and the starry sky!’

’Tightly embraced the Mermaid Princess, Sea Song Xiyin!!!’

’That posture, that action, that atmosphere...’

’No!’

’To be precise, that wasn’t Sea Song Xiyin. The one occupying that body at this moment was the Ancient Elf Priestess, Elune’s Song: Seren Hill—the very "Honored Mother" my brother kept talking about.’

’Was this a moral collapse, or a perversion of human nature...’

Fortunately, after her moment of shock, the Moon Priestess’s reaction was extremely fast.

She whipped her head around.

Under the moonlight, her eyes, which flowed with specks of lunar brilliance, shot Lynch a fierce glare. A faint blush appeared on her cheeks.

’If it were possible, she really wished she could shove this scoundrel into Mirror Lake and drown him ten thousand times over.’

"You just wait. I’ll deal with you later!"

In the next instant, the lunar brilliance in Sea Song’s eyes quickly faded, returning to their azure blue. Then, she blinked, her long eyelashes fluttering twice, and said weakly with a blush, "My Lord!?"
