Chapter 178: Reunion
Raven passed through the portal, and the spiritual power poured out of her body like a tidal wave and swept through the crowd below, easily finding the same kind of individual she knew so well. www.biquge.info The anxiety, panic, and helplessness caused by the exhaustion of the past ten days of aimless searching, all of which turned into lost ecstasy and joy at this moment, she quickly fell to the ground, rushed to her child as if no one was around, and held him tightly in her arms.
As if a goddess had descended from the sky, the soldiers in a circle around Rhodes involuntarily stepped back to make way of space under the oppression of the mother's domineering appearance and momentum, and watched in a daze as the stunning woman suddenly appeared and hugged the young boy who was still the focus of the conflict between his arms.
I haven't had a good night's rest in more than ten days, and I am tired and weak, and my deep dark circles contrast with my fair skin like smoky makeup...... But even so, Raven was still beautiful, stunning enough to make all the men and women present look straight in the eyes.
......
One moment ago, Rod was still worried about how to calm down the tense confrontation between the two parties in front of him, and the next moment his mother suddenly appeared and came straight to him, completely unprepared, he took a step back nervously, and then was hugged by the woman...... The familiar fragrance that had been smelled for more than ten years rushed into his nose, and he suddenly felt relieved, only to feel that even if he died in the arms of the other party, he would have no regrets.
"Rod, where have you gone!......" Raven hugged her son, who had been searched for and almost thought he was already very lucky, holding his head and caressing and kissing his short silver gray hair and cheeks, when she suddenly felt a strange attraction coming from the child, which made her shiver and instinctively use her magic to fight.
I haven't seen her for a few months, and Rhodes's own attraction to the opposite sex has obviously awakened, and the female mage, as the strongest spiritual mage in this world without suspense, experienced the feeling of being attracted by the ability of the same origin as herself for the first time, and the novelty outweighed the surprise for a while. It took a few seconds to figure out what was going on, but found something else: the son was not as happy and excited as he imagined to see him again, and was even frightened by her to take a step back, which inadvertently revealed a subconscious action of defensiveness and alienation, not at all like the boy who was always clinging to him in the past.
"What's the matter, dear, what's wrong?" Raven let go of the young man, still ignoring anyone around him and hugging him, for fear that the child would disappear again as soon as he let go: "Or what's on your mind?"
"I didn't ...... No. Rod shook his head and finally decided to go ahead with his plan.
But the Guardian wasn't so easy to fool, she frowned, and decisively decided to check her son's memory: "Relax your spirit, don't resist." β
......
Mental power gently entered the other party's mind, and she began to carefully look through everything that her son had experienced after a farewell at home.
Neither in principle nor in practice, she has never carried out such an operation suspected of violating privacy with her family, but Rod's face, which has always been unable to hide her thoughts, reveals too many abnormalities, and it is difficult for her to feel at ease if she does not do so.

Rhodes allowed the strange and familiar spiritual power to seep into his mind, and knew that he couldn't hide anything in the end. It was impossible for him to resist his mother's spiritual investigation, so he simply gave up resistance completely and took the initiative to send everything out to his mother.
In her son's memory, Raven saw the little fox girl escape and was captured, saw the deep friendship between the witch and her son who traveled through time and space, saw the whole process of the tournament and the small turmoil in between, and saw the assassination of King Elite...... The woman's face gradually began to change, and she saw the part where Rhodes was chased after separating from the caravan, who were these people, where did they come from, and why should they be bad for their children?
She didn't know, but decided to figure it out.
Finally, he saw Rhodes' conversation with Dr. Mythelel and the boy's imagination and worries that it caused.
......
"You kid, don't you have any questions that you can come up with when you get home, what can you come up with?" Raven was angry and funny, and stretched out her finger and flicked it on Rod's head: "It's against you...... dare to use their brains against their mothers. β
Rod's face flushed, and the other party's intimate actions made him gradually regain the sense of closeness with his blood relatives, but since he had been found out what he was thinking, he simply asked clearly. He stubbornly looked at each other: "Mom...... Why am I different from others?"
"Why, do you like to be the same as everyone else. β
"No...... "What boy wouldn't want to be different and unique?" But there must be a limit, he frowned, and whispered, "But this, it's too different." β
Raven sighed, looked at the large group of soldiers around him who were staring at him and Rod, who had not rested for days, and was carried away by the joy of finding his son, and did not bother to use his brain to explain the problem for a while.
"Is there a knife? After thinking about it, she had an idea.
"Knife?" Rod looked puzzled, hesitated for a moment and pulled out a handful from the bag, a beautiful little dagger encrusted with jewels and carved flowers that Friss had given him when she saw him off. The boy was left with only one weapon several times along the way, and although he didn't really use it, it gave him some courage after all.
The female mage pinched the dagger and looked it up and down, and made a movement that no one else expected at allβshe slashed lightly on the palm of her left hand!
Never expected that the first person she would hurt with what she gave to her sweetheart would be her favorite mother-in-law, and the blood spilled from the wound, bright red and shiny, and fell from her slippery skin.
"Mom!" Rod was startled, and quickly held his mother's injured hand in distress.
Then he saw the familiar scene that had happened to him countless times: the fresh wound cut by the sharp knife, which was half a finger long, quickly stopped the bleeding under the gaze of his eyes, and healed together at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in the blink of an eye, it formed a thin red line, and the scab was almost skipped, and the recovery speed was only faster than his own.
......
"You are different from others, because I gave birth to you and I am different from others, even if you take a knife to stab your father now, what you see will only be an ordinary result. The woman's presentation was more convincing than any words, and Rod's expression immediately changed, and a voice in his heart cheered: he may not be a normal human being, but at least he is the child of his parents!
"It's just that I don't recommend you do it. Raven smiled and touched Rod's head, "Let's talk about whether it can succeed first, if it really stabs, you will be beaten by your father and can't walk." β
"Mom. The knot that had plagued Rod's heart for many days was untied, and under the opening of his heart, the grievances caused by the past few days of sin suddenly came to his heart, and his nose was sore, and he hugged his mother tightly, and he wanted to bury his head in her arms and cry.
"Okay, it's my mother who is not good, and some things may not be a good choice to hide from you. Raven breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately she carefully discovered her son's abnormality, otherwise this question would have been held in her heart and I don't know what would happen in the future: "Now let's go to Roy, and when your sister and brother are present, I will explain the reason why we are different from ordinary people." β
