Chapter 38: Lily's Magic Show
The following morning Lily woke up earlier, fully energized, for some reason. She washed herself, as she had leaked the last remains of Thea's actions two nights ago. She didn't find Thea's seed disgusting, the opposite in fact, she almost subconsciously worshipped it, it would however be uncomfortable in their two week journey so she washed herself out.
After she took a long bath, she went to the kitchen to prepare some breakfast. She made bread, eggs, sausages and bacon. As the last items were on the pan, she went to the bedroom and woke Thea up with a kiss on the forehead, while softly shaking her.
When Thea finally woke up, she put on her some hunting clothes and walked over to the living room where her mother was waiting. They ate breakfast together while Lily explained some of the details of the trip.
It came down to them needing to jog the first day, to make up the distance they didn't travel yesterday but if they did that they could leisurely walk the rest of the distance and be on time. They would follow a forest path for 6 days and then the path would join one of the roads. From there they would follow the road for half a day before they arrived at the capital.
Thea nodded her head while listening and eating. After Thea finished her breakfast, she took a quick bath, as she this would be her last day in this house for a long time. She suggested taking the house with her, in her inventory, but Lily denied it, saying the rough living would do them both some good.
When Thea finished her bath, she quickly looked around the house reminiscing all the memories she had here and went to her mother who was waiting at the exit of the garden.
"Alright, are you ready to leave?" Lily asked, warmly smiling at Thea.
Thea looked back at her house one more time and nodded.
"Alright then, let me quickly change my appearance so we aren't recognized, just in case." Lily smiled.
Thea was a bit confused until Lily began casting, a really long spell, she casted the spell for a full 15 seconds until Thea saw the magic particles from the surrounding levitate towards Lily. Lily glowed for a bit and when the glowing stopped, in Lily's place was a woman of similar height and body build but Lily's iconic black tentacle hair and orange eyes, were changed to normal blond hair and blue eyes. Her facial build didn't change much, but her ears did become longer and pointy, in the end it would be enough to fool people who could normally recognized her.
Thea stood there with her mouth agape, staring at her mother.
"Fufufu, amazed at my magic?" Lily said standing proud in front of her daughter.
"Why did you cast for so long?" Thea asked instead, breaking down Lily's confidence.
"What do you mean! Let me have you know that my casting time is one of the fastest on this continent. The more specific you want your spell to be, the more details you need to chant." Lily said slightly agitated by Thea's remark.
"Water Dragon." Thea said, and simultaneously a 10 meter, Chinese style dragon made of water materialized behind her, she flew the dragon around for a bit and then dematerialized her spell again. This was the limit of what Thea could cast with her mana for now, although it automatically replenished itself, she had a limit, and that limit, limited her to what and how big she could cast something.
She then looked at Lily, who now had her turn to stand there mouth agape, staring at Thea with wide eyes. This was the first time Lily saw Thea use magic, as she always tested her magic in the forest, when it was hunting days, and for Thea's first presentation of her magic to be this significant, was unimaginable to Lily.
"What did you say when you casted the spell?" Lily asked when she regained her composure.
"Water Dragon." Thea answered slightly confused.
"What?" Lily asked again.
"W.A.T.E.R D.R.A.G.O.N." Thea said slowly and clearly.
Lily stood there baffled by what Thea said, she then turned around and paced back and forth thinking about something. She did this for the following 5 minutes before she froze.
"HAHAH Impossible" Lily spoke out loud, slightly hysterical.
"What?" Thea asked angry she was being left out of whatever her mother was thinking about.
Lily who realized Thea was unaware of what she was doing, gulped and answered her.
