Chapter 408 The Ladies Are Watching Their Husband
Royal Castle, Nightingale.
Lilith and Lucy were sitting opposite to each other in the courtyard around a round table. Each had a tablet in their hands and were watching Lith on the screen.
The table had a teapot, teacups, and a pastry stand containing different types of pastries and cupcakes to have alongside tea.
"Mom, I don't understand, will he really be able to learn something from this war?" Lucy turned to look at her mother and asked.
Lilith looked back at Lucy and said with a smile, "Yes, dear. Why else would he go there if that wasn't the case?"
Lucy shook her head. "No, what I mean is, Shadow River Sect is backed by us itself. The two clans definitely don't stand a chance at winning this. So if the win is confirmed, will it really benefit Lith?"
Lilith took a sip of tea and said, "Yes, he will. We won't be helping the sect unless absolutely needed. Let baby do his thing first."
"Hmm.. yes, then it makes sense." Lucy nodded her head and said. "Oh and by the way, are the others watching as well?"
Lilith smiled and answered, "probably. This is the first time he's going to war, they should be watching as well."
Lucy took a sip of her tea and then said, "If they were going to watch him, why not just be here and see him together? It would've been more fun."

"That's true. Anyway, that aside, are you not going to ask any questions regarding the thing he did in that tower?" Lilith changed the topic and asked.
"What's there to ask? It's obvious what he did. He wants to stay low and not reveal himself." Lucy answered.
Lilith put her hand on her mouth and said, "Ara, it seems my daughter has become smarter."
Lucy stared at her mother after hearing it for a good few seconds and said, "Mom, what even do you think of me? Do I look like someone who is not smart?"
Lilith chuckled hearing it. She was just teasing Lucy and didn't bother to reply to her on this.
While these two watched Lith, far away from them in the Hidden Continent…
"Big sis, I should go and join the war." Alexandra, sitting on a couch a few metres away from Arya, said.
Arya had her usual blindfolds on and was in a formal white shirt and black pants. She was watching the war on the screen present on the wall in front of her and Alexandra was doing the same thing.
Arya turned her head towards Alexandra as if she could look through her eyes and said, "No, not yet. The sect isn't even at a slight disadvantage. Can't you see?"
"But darling is alone over there and I also need to pay back to the sect from how good they took care of me." Alexandra insisted.
Arya shook her head. "Not yet. Let the sect be in some trouble and then I'll send you. If you go now, you'll only end up giving our husband an even easier time to defeat the enemies and win this war. Let him struggle, let him experience a few things first."
"I took you to war a lot of times before, right? You should know how things take place. It's his first time in war this time, let him have an experience of it."
Alexandra fell silent after hearing that. Arya was right and she didn't have anything to refute.
"Then… What if darling wins it or things just go this way till the end? Will that mean I won't be able to join?" Alexandra asked.
Arya nodded her head. "That's right. If there's no need, you won't be sent there."
"Big sis…" Alexandra made a sad face as she heard that.
Arya smiled and said, "don't worry, I'll compensate you for it. We'll go war in ten places if you aren't able to attend this one."
Alexandra fell silent again after hearing that. After contemplating Arya's offer for a bit, she said, "But big sis… being in war alongside darling would be so much different and better and–"
"No, you aren't allowed to go." Arya interrupted Alexandra with a smile and said. "I know full well that you just want to spend time with him and have got nothing to do with the sect. I don't mind this thing as even I wish to be beside him at all times; but the problem is…"
"Firstly, the problem with me being with him is that he won't be able to have the best experience of the war and secondly, you turn into an idiot when you're with him your brain and common sense, everything just shuts itself off and you completely give yourself to him."
"Though that's not wrong, it's really bad. Why are you not your sadist self in front of him?"
Alexandra stared at Arya as she heard that. Even Alexandra didn't know that she did such a thing? Does her brain shut off when she's with Lith? Of course, not. From what she knew about herself, when she's with Lith, she is fully devoted to him via body, mind, and soul, and the only thing that would be in her mind was…
Alexandra's face blushed slightly and she started having thoughts that were not safe for children to know about and definitely very nsfw.
Alexandra's body started heating up and she rubbed her thighs together as her mind got occupied with the thoughts of Lith and the things she would do with him once she meets him in the war.
Noticing this, Arya facepalmed. Just how much was Alexandra mad about Lith?
Arya then shook her head and let Alexandra be in her own world. The more she was occupied with thoughts, the better it was for Arya as well since she wouldn't need to constantly remind Alexandra that she wasn't allowed to go to war unless absolutely necessary.
Arya got back to watching Lith on the screen and Alexandra… well… she tried hard to not touch herself while thinking of Lith and simply kept thinking more about him.
While the two did that, right at the opposite side of the world from where Arya was…
In the Neutral Continent.
Abalax World Academy, Espat.
Emilia was in her office and was also watching Lith on the laptop in front of her. While she watched her husband and didn't work, a bit away from her, on the couch, Sel was sitting and working on her tablet.
Sel handled most of the things of Emilia when she didn't work and though there was a lot of load on her, she was a Cherubim and could probably manage herself well for a while even without her guardian Seraphim.
All Cherubims in the world were under a Seraphim and that was the society of the Angels. There was only one Seraphim in the world who had only one Cherubim under her and it was Emilia, the War Angel herself.
If by any chance some Cherubim was without a Seraphim, they could go and tell the council in the Vatican City about it and they would put them under someone. But they would first be asked which Seraphim they would like to be under and if the Cherubim had any preference, they would put them there.
But in case the Seraphim already had a lot of people under them, the council would ask for a second preference and then the Cherubim would put it there.
But in case there was no preference, it would be allotted to the Seraphim with the fewest Cherubims.
But, over the course of thousands of years, despite there being a lot of people wanting to be under Emilia, she had refused all and it was only Sel who was under her.
Sel was really grateful for Emilia to take her under her and though she didn't know why Emilia didn't take any more Cherubims, she felt really special that her Madam only wanted her as the subordinate. Thus, Sel worked extra hard every time so as to not bother her Madam too much and stress her.
Sel knew Emilia was already very stressed about a lot of things and she always did her best to lower her burden.
Over the course of years, this attitude of Sel brought Emilia and her really close and this was why Sel spoke so freely most of the times in front of Emilia. They sure were very close.
"Uffo Sel, I wanna be with my husband!" Emilia slumped on the table and said suddenly.
They surely were very close...
