When Lory returned from the Mystique Realm, she brought Zhao Li Xin along to discuss Girsha's situation and their new discovery with Lucas, Fargo, and Fredhardt. Lory also brought up how the terrifying Scion transforms into a cute, adorable little boy, with pure eyes, and Lory couldn't resist snapping a selfie with him on her phone.
They gathered in the study lounge, its warm lighting and quiet atmosphere making it the perfect place for a serious talk. Lucas leaned over, plucked the phone from Lory's hand, and examined the picture with a raised brow.
"…He's actually, really cute," Lucas muttered before shrugging.
"Well, at least I'm not disgusted anymore knowing that thing is living inside me. By the way, you said the Scion absorbed my power to nourish himself… does that make me his mother?"
Lory tilted her head. "More like his surrogate mother."
"Ohh.." Lucas make a slow nod.
