Chapter 177 - Forged by a Mother’s Flame

The following day everyone just went over the files for Hallelujah Island and its situation — an island that currently houses a population of 0. It has been observed to have irregular fauna and flora, as well as strange snake-like creatures inside. Liebe said, "It's all interesting."

That day at 3 p.m., the Knight of 9 arrived in Valtia — the Knight of 9, Vanessa Zenith. There was a banquet at the castle at 6 p.m.

As they were getting ready, Alysa said, "Liebe how does this dress?"Liebe said, "Black really does suit you. You look lovely."Alysa said, "Thanks."

Then the five of them went to the castle. As they were enjoying the banquet, suddenly Mey poked Liebe from behind, and as Liebe looked at her, she said in sign language, Can we dance?

Liebe, remembering what he said to Werner, signed, That would love to but unfortunately I promised this dance to my Alysa and plus this chicken salad tastes amazing you should try it.Then Mey signed back, Yeah I did I really love how they got the chicken so tender without affecting the flavour.

As all of the representatives were bowing before the King of Valtia, Liebe bowed and said, "Liebe Faust, representative of Eldoria." The king nodded, and they went on.

As Liebe was walking, a woman put her hand on his shoulder and said, "Do I know you? Your magic power smells so familiar."

As Liebe had his face stuffed with food, it was the Knight of 9, Vanessa. Liebe said, "Sorry ma'am I doubt we have met."Vanessa said, "Are you sure? Your magic power smells like I have tasted it quite a few times. What is your representative?"Liebe said, "I'm Liebe Faust, acting captain of Black Rose and representative of Eldoria."Vanessa said, "Ohhhh Liebe Faust yeah we have met except it was when you were just 3 months."Liebe said, "Huh what now?"

As she hugged him tight, Liebe just started to suffocate in her 120-size breasts.Alysa said, "Why does he get to be suffocated inside Lady Vanessa's boobs?"Gelda said, "I know right I'm also jealous."Eldrie said, "Quite unfortunate indeed."Licht said, "Guys please have some dignity."

After the long hug, Liebe tried to catch his breath.Vanessa said, "You don't like my boobs?"Liebe said, "I like boobs but not enough that I would actually want to get suffocated to death by them."Vanessa said, "Uhh sad you loved them the last time you saw them you wouldn't let go."Licht said, "Seems like you were a pervert even as a baby."Alysa said, "Pervert Liebe."Eldrie said, "May God bless Lord Liebe."Gelda said, "Lord it isn't good to be a pervert on an international scale."Liebe said, "Huhhh what?"

Vanessa said, "How is Lilith? Heard she had a 2nd child is that true?"Liebe said, "Mother is good and unfortunately that is true."Vanessa said, "It's been a while since I last saw her. It was when you were 3 months, I think it was for our last meeting of the 25 Princes of Hell."Liebe said, "25 Princes of Hell?"Vanessa said, "Oh yeah you don't know? You know how the Underworld has 25 floors right? Well, well, in order to fight against them all the nations combined their resources to assemble 25 strongest people in the history of humanity. Among them, your current Grandmaster is at 17th while your mother is at 20. I can fondly remember the days when I would just live my life and your mother would just show up in the name of conquest or something and then challenge me, and then go away for a few days and then challenge me again and lose again. It was our little tradition."Gelda said, "I remember. Lilith really was one hell of a problem child."Vanessa said, "Yeah it would be the only fun part of my week. While everyone just feared me, she would charge head-on and lose."Liebe said, "I'm sorry how many times did mother challenge you again?"Vanessa said, "Oh between when she was 15 like you and when she stopped at 33 — 973,231 times — for my rank as 9th of the 25 Princes of Hell."Liebe said, "I'm sorry what?"Vanessa said, "She was quite persistent alright."Liebe said, "Why did she stop?"Vanessa said, "Because she was pregnant with you, and then she died down a bit and would visit just to say hi and stuff. And when she was pregnant she just said, when my child is born he will train with me and then after that I will beat you. She literally thought you would start sparring with her 2 minutes after being born. It was hilarious to see — the Knight of One, Geno, had to make her sit down and explain that babies don't start training from the moment they are born. It was like explaining to a child that people really have went to the moon. But after you were born, she actually changed for the better and went from being a battle junkie to a more patient person. It was good to see. She would come bragging that, look how cute Liebe is, and that you will be the kindest, strongest person in the world."Liebe said, "Mother said that about me?"Vanessa said, "We were also quite shocked when you relinquished your claim to the throne of Faust. And want to hear what the funny thing is? When she was pregnant, she used to call you her little teddy bear and ice cream thief, and she would constantly work on the forge to make duel swords that were the perfect size for a baby. More than 11,000 swords were produced until the perfect pair was made, but after she learned babies can't use it, she was quite disappointed. Those swords can be considered perfect for their size, but because of their size they couldn't basically be used for anything, including being used as daggers or knives."

Hearing this, Liebe shed a tear and said, "Mother did that for me? Where are those swords?"Gelda said, "I have those. After Tenebris died, she couldn't look at them, so she told me to throw them away but I kept them."Liebe said, "Can I take them?"Gelda said, "After we return, sure."Liebe said, "Thank you, Vanessa, for your words," as tears kept falling from his right eye.Vanessa said, "You might just be the cutest thing," and hugged Liebe again.
