Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

Chapter 1065 Adeline’s And Vera’s Meeting

Adeline was feeling incredibly anxious as she followed Lux to the Teleportation Gate that would send them back to Solais.

Although her son had said that his grandmother was a very kind and caring person, the beautiful Elf was afraid of meeting Vera.

The reason?

She was afraid that Lux's Grandmother would judge her for allowing her child to be placed in a basket and sent adrift to a river.

Everyone thought that the baby was dead, so they decided to send him off on his final journey towards the afterlife.

Of course, Adeline didn't want to send her baby away, and she even had to be put to sleep to prevent the scenario of her jumping into the river to reclaim her child who was being carried away from her side by the river.

"It's going to be fine," Lux said as he held his mother's hand. "It is all in the past, and Grandma will not hold it against you, Mother."

"Are you sure?" Adeline asked in a worried tone. "What if she hates me instead for abandoning you?"

"She won't."

"What makes you so certain?"

Lux smiled and faced his mother, whom he had met just a few days ago.

"It's because she's my Grandma," Lux said with confidence. "If things didn't happen the way they did, we wouldn't have met, and I wouldn't have been here today. So, be brave, Mother. Let's go meet Grandma."

The Half-Elf knew that the sooner Adeline met Grandma Vera, the sooner the two of them could form a good relationship with each other.

What Adeline didn't know was that Lux had already given Vera a heads-up about their arrival. He had also explained to his grandma that the only reason why he was abandoned in the river by his birth mother was because she and the Elves of Ashe Entheas thought that he was dead.

While Vera had her reservations, she, too, wanted to meet Adeline who had given birth to Lux.

Although the reason she had met her grandson was due to Adeline's loss, she was still thankful that it happened because Lux had brought many surprises into her life.

A few minutes later, Lux, Aurora, and Adeline appeared in the training room of the Half-Elf's house in Wildgarde Stronghold.

As soon as they arrived, the beautiful Elf saw a lady with long silver hair, and her eyes were locked onto her body.

'A Saintess!' Adeline's heart almost leaped out of her chest the moment she discerned Vera's rank.

"We're back, Grandma," Lux said with a smile.

"Welcome back, Lux. You, too, Aurora," Vera smiled at the two teenagers before shifting her gaze to Adeline. "You must be Adeline. I have already heard a few things about you from my grandson. Why don't we all go to the living room to have some refreshments first?"

Vera made a gesture, and everyone followed behind her.

For Adeline, walking behind the Saintess was similar to walking behind an executioner who would chop off her head in a few minutes.

If not for the fact that Lux was firmly holding her hand, she might have already escaped and left Wildgarde Stronghold as fast as she could.

Unfortunately, she couldn't do that, so she accepted her Fate and followed behind Vera who had already prepared for their arrival.

A few sweet cakes were on the table, accompanied by glasses of fruit juice.

Adeline found herself sitting between Aurora and Lux.

This sitting arrangement reduced the anxiety in her heart, since the two teenagers were right beside her, acting as her pillars of support.

"Let me introduce myself first," Vera said with a smile. "I am Vera Von Kaizer. Lux's Grandmother. Just call me Vera."

"Nice to meet you," Adeline nodded. "My name is Adeline Farryn Azariah. I also go by the name Adeline Farryn Fynn. Just call me Adeline."

Vera could tell that Adeline was feeling anxious, and she had a feeling that it was because of the guilt of abandoning her son to the river.

Lux's grandma gave her grandson a sidelong glance and saw him smiling at her.

This was enough to tell Vera that the Half-Elf was not holding a grudge against his birth mother, so she decided to no longer dwell on the reason he was abandoned in the past.

"Do you want to know more about Lux's childhood?" Vera asked.

"Yes!" Adeline answered in a heartbeat, almost shouting her reply.

Realizing her mistake, she hurriedly apologized and bowed her head.

"Don't be so anxious," Vera stated. "Relax. I don't bite. Since you are already here, it means that my grandson has already recognized you as his mother. But before I tell you about Lux's childhood, can you tell me why I found him floating in the river?"

Although Lux had already explained how he ended up adrift on the river when he was a baby, Vera wanted to hear it directly from Adeline's mouth.

She could tell that Adeline wasn't someone who would abandon her child without a proper reason, and Vera wanted her to confirm the things that Lux had told her about his mother.

"I know that you might not believe me, but Lux died shortly after I gave birth to him," Adeline stated. "The healers of the Clan tried to revive him, but after half a day of trying, all of them finally gave up."

Adeline's eyes turned moist as she remembered holding her dead baby in her arms. Instead of feeling his warmth, the only thing she felt back then was coldness that permeated her heart.

Tears were already falling from Adeline's eyes by this point, and she was finding it hard to continue talking.

Even so, she persevered until the very end and told Vera how she parted with the child, whom she planned to love with everything she had.

How she kissed Lux's forehead before placing him in the basket.

How she wrote his name on a tablet and placed it inside his basket as the last gift that she could give him.

Vera listened from start to finish as Adeline shared her tale.

After sharing her story, Adeline finally broke down and buried her head in Lux's chest.

The Half-Elf didn't hesitate to hug his mother to provide her with the support she needed in order to regain her composure.

Vera watched this scene and sighed in her heart.

If earlier, she still had doubts that Adeline had abandoned her child due to selfish reasons, now, she was convinced that she wasn't that kind of woman.

Lux being alive after being confirmed dead was nothing but a miracle.

Since it was a miracle, Vera had no intention of finding fault with what had happened in the past.

However, she couldn't stop herself from looking at the beautiful Elf with pity, for she missed the chance to see her son grow up and share the happiness and sadness that went along with it.
