Chapter 1182: Dragon Family Reunited

?

The time to move to the Tower was slowly coming for everyone, and with Maria doing the last preparations, some of her friends grew slightly restless, they didn't really want her to leave so quickly, but they understood that wanting to see her family again was one of the things she wanted to do the most.

They knew that no one could accompany her anymore, there were just too many people, and bringing a whole army of people to the tower was simply ridiculous. Bringing her entire family was already ridiculous enough, they were too many people, according to Eustace, only moved in groups of four at most.

Yet Maria was going with eight people! The number was double that! Eustace ha never heard of such large groups of people moving around the tower ever, mostly because of the risks that implied being such a large group, including the costs of food and more, and how trials could divide everyone if they didn't have the special Party Ticket.

Of course, not everyone was crazy about going with her though, and right now she was trying to relax for these last days with her friends and family, especially with new family members that have joined, such as Violet, the elder sister of Crystal, someone thought to have died long ago. Maria, Lucifer, Violet, Brunhild, and a few other family members were sitting around the comfortable living room, near the chimney while enjoying some snacks and hot drinks.

"It has been over a week since you all returned, but even now I can hardly believe you were alive, Violet..." Brunhild kept weeping as she saw Violet sitting by her side, looking at her with a bored expression as she ate cookies and drank hot chocolate.

"Come on Brunhild, how long are you going to keep crying like a baby?" sighed Violet. "We already all cried the first few days, a lot happened, many were lost, but that's it! We've got our whole lives ahead of ourselves now and I want to live for my sister, and also for her cute daughter... At least, that's... my coping mechanism."

"I totally understand how you feel," nodded Brunhild. "And you're right, I'm just a crybaby at this point... I just... well..."

"I suppose she doesn't want to elaborate further, but my sister here spent a lot of time alone in the mountains of the dwarves," said Lucifer. "Unlike us who spent most of our time sleeping so it didn't feel completely despairing... It was a bit different with her, she was awake through all these years."

"She was...?" Violet muttered. "I... damn, why didn't you ever tell me about it?!"

"I'm sorry, I just didn't want to make you feel upset..." Brunhild apologized. "But yeah... A lot happened!"

"By a lot she means loving the old dwarf king that made that kingdom, marrying him, and having kids with him!" Maria commented out of nowhere. "The whole royal family of that kingdom has dragon blood on them, did you know?"

"E-Eh?!" Violet gasped. "Brunhild?! I had no idea you were into those small hairy dwarves! Hahahahaha! Now that's rich, the reserved and cold Brunhild loving a dwarf king?! Oh my gosh if our people were alive this would make such a good gossip!"

"M-Maria! Did you had to tell her like that?!" Brunhild felt embarrassed. "And that was so long ago too! My goodness! I wanted to talk about it slowly over time... Ugh."

"I'm so sorry Brunhild, but I know you wouldn't tell her, you feel embarrassed for that," sighed Maria. "You should feel happy about the love you felt with that man, even if he's no longer with us, I am sure your love continues, right? And I am sure he still loves you too, wherever he is. Your descendants are like your kids after all, you've been taking care of them this whole time. Now there's nobody in that kingdom that doesn't know about Brunhild the Dragon Guardian!"

"Y-Yeah... I... I love them," sighed Brunhild. "They're indeed my precious children but... E- Even then, it is weird, right, Violet? I guess it was mostly because there were no dragons for me to mate... so at the end, I chose a different race, a man that loved me despite the being I was..."

"There's nothing weird about it! Love is love, Brunhild!" Violet laughed. "Just look there! Isn't Maria like... she was a human right? And Lucifer here is like a death dragon now or whatever, and they love each other. Didn't you ever thought that if I didn't mind them, I wouldn't mind you either? Come on! I am not an asshole..."

"Violet..." Brunhild started weeping again, running towards Violet, and hugging her tightly. "I love you sis!"

"W-Wait, hold on a bit, Brunhild, aagh!" Violet groaned; she didn't like getting touchy with people. "You're as touchy as I remember you, huh?"

"I'm just happy! I thought I was the only one, but there are now four of us! Lucifer, you, little Nyx, and me! Our family... it has truly grown bigger! Right baby girl?"

"Yeah!" Nyx nodded as she was stuffing herself eating cookies. "I like having two aunties!"

"Heh, aren't you the cutest?" Violet giggled, kissing Nyx's forehead. "I can already see how strong you'll grow once you're a full fledged adult, little Nyx! Once you hit that stage, maybe your auntie can teach you how to be a true big and bad dragon!"

"Woow! Really?!" Nyx was excited.

"Yeah! You begin by burning villages and..."

As Violet talked, Maria and Lucifer's faces distorted in horror while Nyx heard with excitement.

"Hahaha! I'm joking, we never did something like that!" laughed Violet. "If anything, that we dragons are evil beasts is all just fabrications of that damn church, we're good and peaceful people that lived our own lives in our own place. But yeah, we do have some traditions here and there... Oh right! I forgot to ask you Brunhild! So how was that king in bed? If you married a dwarf I bet he was pretty good, eh? And if he got you pregnant..."

"V-Violet! Why do you have to ask such embarrassing things?! And even in front of the child! Ugh!"

Brunhild was dying of embarrassment.

"Hahahaha! Sorry, my bad! I'm just happy to have a family again!"
