Chapter 439: Chapter 221: Cultivator Companion’s Evolution, Parting Gifts
Lin Mo stole a glance at Lady Beixila. ’Though a kind person, she was also incredibly smart and resourceful. When it came to matters concerning her daughter, this mother was no stranger to using such "clever tactics."’
’It was completely understandable. What mother in the world wouldn’t want a better life for her daughter?’
"I knew you’d be here..."
A familiar voice sounded out as Chacher walked into the secret room, holding a cloth bag in her hand.
It looked like a Magic Storage Bag.
"Here, Little Feney. Take this."
She placed the Magic Storage Bag into Feney’s hands. "These are all the Potions I’ve been making. There are Intermediate health and Magic Potions, and some other utility Potions too."
"Thank you, Auntie Chacher."
With red-rimmed eyes, Feney suddenly threw her arms around her.
Chacher’s eyes widened in surprise, her body stiffening for a moment. But she quickly recovered, her expression softening.
She gently patted Feney’s back and whispered, "Remember, no matter where you go, we’ll always be behind you. Come back and visit whenever you get homesick. I believe you’ll achieve your dream and become a great Priest."
"Thank you, thank you..."
Feney was sobbing uncontrollably, and Lin Mo felt a wave of emotion as well.
Ali stood to the side, her lips pursed, seemingly lost in thought.
"And this."
Chacher produced a piece of glittering Mithril. "The smelting and basic Enchantment are already done. Once you find other suitable materials, you can use this Spirit Vein Mithril to craft a piece of Epic-grade equipment."
Lin Mo accepted the Spirit Vein Mithril and thanked her with great solemnity.
"Oh, right, what about the young Cat Race girl who came with you all? Is she staying in Silver Stream City?"
Lady Beixila asked.
"If she stays, I can help look after her."
Lin Mo smiled and shook his head. "Thank you for your concern, Auntie Beixila, but there’s no way we would leave her behind. She’s at the Adventurer’s Guild right now saying goodbye to her colleagues and the other Adventurers she knows. She’ll be over in a bit."
As for the crops Lena had been growing, most had been sold for cash over the past few days. The few more valuable or immature plants were placed in Lin Mo’s Ring of Space so they wouldn’t die.
Beixila wasn’t surprised by Lin Mo’s answer. In fact, it was precisely because of his character that she could entrust her daughter to him without worry.
"It’s about time. Let’s get ready to leave."
After saying this, Beixila let out a long, slow sigh.
"Mom..."
Feney turned and hugged her, sobbing softly.
A loving smile graced Lady Beixila’s face. "Go on. Go chase your dreams with the one you love. Don’t worry about things here in Silver Stream City, and don’t worry about me. Chacher and Melissa will be here to keep me company."
"Sometime in the future—maybe in ten years, or maybe twenty—when you return, tell me all about your adventures. I’m sure it will be a long and wonderful story."
"I will!"
Feney nodded emphatically and wiped the tears from her face.
Beixila then turned her gaze to Lin Mo, her gentle eyes filled with a silent plea, entrusting her daughter to him.
Lin Mo nodded with great solemnity.
"Let’s go. It’s time to depart."
Flora’s voice came from outside the door. She was with Shaya. They were returning to the Royal Capital, and since it was on the way for Lin Mo’s group, they would all travel together by carriage.
As for the two Horned Eagles, they had been borrowed from a neighboring city and couldn’t carry this many people anyway, so they had already been returned.
The group left the City Lord’s Mansion. Lena rushed to join them, and they all boarded a large, luxurious carriage, which slowly began to move toward the city gates.
Lady Beixila and Chacher stood together, watching the carriage recede into the distance.
Melissa stood behind them, and the silence stretched on for a long, long time.
"Let’s go."
Finally, Chacher let out a long sigh. "The children are gone. I suppose it’s time for us to get back to our own lives."
Beixila chuckled. "Your life? It’s just dozing in your lounge chair every day, doing a little alchemy, and making a few Potions..."
"What’s wrong with that? Sounds pretty good to me. All the trouble is over, so you won’t have as much to worry about. We can get together more often for tea."
"That’s true..."
Beixila nodded, her mood seeming to lighten in an instant.
She had lived a very tiring life these past few years. Now, it was finally time to rest and take care of herself.
’Someday,’ she thought, ’I might even get to help take care of Feney’s children...’
