Chapter 168
Roth gritted his teeth in anger but held back. "But what else are we to do then, mother? Beg the other gods to allow the existence of our race?"
"You know that is impossible, mother. Our new race feeds off other living things and no gods will let such existence live among their own race," Roth said in a defeated tone.
"I don’t disagree with your choice of starting point. I merely want to snuff out your arrogance," Keles said, looking at Roth and Xerosis.
"From your earlier tone, it seemed like you planned on moving like you already own the place as long as your sister is close to you," Keles said as Roth and Xerosis bowed their heads in shame.
Shaking her head at their antics, Keles spoke up. "You can go there, but remember to keep your existence hidden and act from the shadows. Even though that will be hard considering how the two of you affect the normal world just by being close to it, regardless, keep your existence as hidden as you can while slowly growing your race in strength and number."
"The demon will make no move against you directly once it confirms your lineage, but that doesn’t mean that it can’t play or guide others into making a move against you," Keles said in a cautioning tone.
"Understood, mother," Roth and Xerosis both responded as Keles waved her hand to open up a portal behind them.
Sadness once again washed over the two before Xerosis sprang up from where she was and flew into her mother, hugging her tightly. Keles was taken aback by that when Roth also joined in. Keles’ eyes widened before she brought her arms together around them and pulled them into a hug.
The family stayed this way for a while before separating. "Figure out the ritual and conditions needed for me to be summoned or travel the world in search of the focal point to my realm so we can see each other again," Keles said as both Xerosis and Roth went through the portal.
