《The Lonely Wanderer》Chapter 37: The Undying Love Of A Mother
Advertisement
Dropping down to his knees like soldiers giving up war. No more reason to fight, no more need to shed unnecessary blood. Holding back the sadness coursing through him like hot lava. Shenzi coarsely calls out "mother." At the end of the memories, her body was already dead. But a remnant of her soul faithfully stays kindled in the tablet, containing a domain she used the last of her life force to create for her son.
Drawing in power coursing through his bloodline essence, Shenzi tears off 1/3 of it almost crippling his future. However, as a son who had never seen his mother before. But has seen all the pain and suffering, there is nothing called "too much" when it involves familial love.
Injecting his bloodline essence into the domain tablet. Shenzi chants in his heart, "Mother you have already done so much for me, I may be selfish asking your already feeble soul to resonate. Just this once, I want to see the mom who sacrificed everything for this rascal."
As if to answer his pleading, purple clouds much like the previous time form once more. The already dead organs, like an old car with a new battery, and starter start to regain their activity. The blood is rushing through the body bringing a significant change, multitudes of snaps and cracks echo out. Wings spread out from the back of the body, tens of kilometres long with bloody-purple currents flickering about. The roaring of an immortal dragon from the past ages is once again heard.
The spear pierced through the heart that was previously still like when fishing with a calm surface. Lights up like a sea of diamonds, pitch black chains extend out wrapping around the body. Trillions of glyphs activate with various bindings, soul restraints, blood restraints and so forth.
A roar with an indescribable amount of killing intent bursts out, "THIS WILL NOT STOP ME FROM SEEING MY PRECIOUS SON!" The body of Shenzi's mom grabs out with both arms ripping the chains out from her body. Injuring her already battered organs to a new extreme. Grabbing the spear with both hands, bitting down hard until her teeth shatter. The lodged spear gets pulled out, rupturing the arteries causing massive amounts of internal bleeding.

Throwing the spear that imprisoned her for so long up into the sky. Both wings react simultaneously grabbing it like a stick and snapping it in half. Then with a similar but more mightier version of Shenzi's Retribution Flames, incinerate the spear into ashes.
In a state of complete weakness, Shenzi's mom falls to the ground. Just as Shenzi is about to rush out to pick his mom back up. Her weak voice sounds out, "Son do not be alarmed, This is just the side effects of pushing myself beyond what I can currently handle." Without giving her son the chance to voice out his worries. Crimson speaks out once more looking into her son's eyes. "You grew up to be handsome my son, you look too much like your father, but still much better of a man than he will ever be."
Forcefully standing herself up, from out of midair crimson grabs a wok and an assortment of ingredients. Cooking up a meal that would make the Immortals themselves doubt if they had rid themselves of the mortal's chains.
Watching his mother cook himself a meal, despite the weakness and obvious pain that makes her body twitch. Shenzi feels the warmth he never once had before. Just as he opens his mouth, "Shut up, I don't need to hear it from you little brat." Crimson's chastising voice sounds out with no room to argue.
Ten minutes later after cooking with her flames, Crimson takes out a table and chair set with matching cutlery. Wrapping Shenzi up with her Spirit Force dragging him to the table. "Sit down and eat, your mother hasn't cooked for anyone in billions of years now. I hope my skills haven't gotten too rusty."
Twenty-five minutes later after mother and son had wolfed down an assortment of dishes. Shenzi finally asks what's been troubling him this whole time. "I have memories in my mind of me and my brother Shao escaping from a war when our parents were captured. Tell me were those fake memories to shield me from becoming involved in all of this shit mess?"

Looking at her son affectionately Crimson confirms his question, "Yes they are false memories I had created in place of your real memories. Also, I notice the cage I had set up with your guardian has already fused with you. That is good enough for now as you become stronger your memories will come back to you. For now, let's not bother about that. Tell me will I have grandchildren in the future?"
Spitting out the alcohol he was about to swallow. Shenzi pauses for a second then resolutely answers back, "Yes you will have grandchildren in the future once I become worthy enough to keep that promise."
"But I guess you can say you already do have grandchildren. The both of them had saved me from falling into a pit of self-destruction." Summoning both Eril and Meril Shenzi looks at them, "This is my mom, In other words, she is now your mom."
Sizing Eril and Meril up happiness flushes by Crimsons eyes with shock. "These two are unique Weapon Spirits, with the ability to evolve, eventually gain a physical body, and can feel emotion. If this were back then I would have to say, many would kill you just for these two. Especially some of those old bastards who liked these kinds of girls."
Wrapping up both Eril and Meril. Crimson says with affection, "Since you both have helped my son greatly over his issues. Your mother will give the both of you physical bodies."
Wrapping up both Eril and Meril, Crimson wraps a rainbow coloured flame around the both of them. Seeing the worried look flash by in her son's eyes. Crimson reassures Shenzi. "Don't worry brat, do you think I would do anything harmful to my girls? This is a specialty flame meant just for Weapon Spirits, giving them the ability to form a physical body. And with your Sword Qi and Sacred Flames already tempering the both of them, the foundation is already created. All I'm doing is building on top of what you have done already."
"Now then son off to the bad news. At most my remnant soul can hang on for forty more days, pushing forty-five depending what I do in this timeframe. Inside this world, 1 second is equivalent to 7 hours on the outside. Within this time frame, 98% of it will be spent with you absorbing the domain I created for you. The remaining time if you can entirely swallow and make this domain yours before the fire of my spirit burns out. I will personally train you. On an hourly basis, you will be drinking an immortal dragon's blood, and eating its flesh to improve your foundations and fleshly body."
Just like a kid who had gotten his favourite toy, only to lose it not even a couple minutes later. Sadness can't help but cover Shenzi's eyes. "Mom I'm sorry my selfishness had awoken the remnant of your spirit."
Slapping Shenzi on the shoulders, Crimson rebukes Shenzi with an angered tone. "Listen here you brat, even if you had not called out to me. I still would have forcefully awoken my spirit. But I am glad because, with your calling, I was able to awaken without using the majority of my leftover Spirit Essence. If it means I could have even just a few more seconds to spend with my son, there is no price big enough I would pay to do so."
