Novel's Extra: The Lost Heir of Dragon Queen-Chapter 74: A Lesson By the Strongest

"Hey, Mom, it’s okay. I won’t say those words again," Kael said.

Sephina crossed her arms, staring at him with an unyielding gaze.

"You’re lying," she said flatly.

Kael sighed.

"I’m not!" He knew he couldn’t win against her intuition.

As silence fell between them, Kael decided to change the subject.

With the academy closed for the month, it seemed like the perfect opportunity to focus on something constructive.

"Mom, can you teach me some of your powerful skills?" he asked.

Sephina’s expression softened.

"Of course. Why not?"

Kael nodded. "Let’s go then!"

Sephina would not teach him as he was injured but after checking his condition she didn’t denied.

Kael condition was at utmost form.

---

The lush green expanse of Sephina’s private island served as the perfect training ground.

Amelia stood in the distance, her arms crossed as she observed the mother and son duo with a curious smile.

Sephina stepped forward, her aura radiating a calm yet intimidating power.

"I’m going to teach you Brahmastra," she announced.

Kael tilted his head.

"What’s that?"

Before Sephina could answer, a system notification appeared before Kael’s eyes:

Kael read the description, his eyes widening.

"That’s insane!"

Sephina smiled faintly.

"It’s a skill few can master. Watch closely."

She extended her hand, summoning a shimmering, golden spear wreathed in fierce, spiraling flames.

The intensity of the fire distorted the air around it, and the sheer heat forced Kael to shield his face.

"This," Sephina began, "is Brahmastra."

Kael could feel the ground trembling slightly under the spear’s overwhelming energy.

He took a step back.

"Are you going to throw it?" he asked nervously.

Sephina chuckled.

"No. If I did, half the island would be gone, and I’d rather not destroy my home." She said.

She lowered the spear slowly, letting its energy dissipate.

"For now, I’ll show you the basics of channeling energy into this form. But remember, this skill isn’t just about raw power—it’s about control."

Kael swallowed hard and nodded.

"Got it."

Sephina’s training session began, her instructions detailed and precise.

She guided Kael on how to harness his mana, shape it into a concentrated form, and infuse it with elemental fire.

Hours passed, with Sephina demonstrating, Kael attempting, and Amelia occasionally chiming in with sarcastic remarks.

By the end of the day, Kael was exhausted but more determined than ever.

Though he hadn’t yet managed to form the spear, he felt closer to unlocking its power.

"You did well," Sephina said, ruffling his hair.

Kael smirked, brushing her hand away.

"Don’t treat me like a kid."

Her laugh echoed across the field. "You’ll always be my kid,"

And for a brief moment, Kael felt at peace.Or so he thought —

Kael took a step back, staring up at the roaring helicopter above him.

THUD!

Three figures leapt from it, landing gracefully on the grassy training ground.

One was Zarenth, his arm bandaged from the previous fight but his expression as nonchalant as ever.

The other two were young womens.

Kael’s sharp eyes immediately caught the striking similarities between one of them and his mother—white hair, golden eyes, and an aura of power that matched Sephina’s.

The second woman was equally captivating, her white hair glinting like silver under the sun and her crimson red eyes glowing with warmth.

Before Kael could make sense of the situation, both women moved.

"sister!" the Red-eyed woman exclaimed, her voice brimming with excitement.

"daughter!" the golden eyed woman cried.

The two women rushed toward Sephina, embracing her tightly.

Sephina chuckled, her rare smile glowing with affection.

"Larcia, you little troublemaker. How have you been?"

"I’m fine, Sister," Larcia said, pulling away but keeping a hand on Sephina’s shoulder.

"And you, Mother?" Sephina asked, turning to the golden eyed woman.

"I’m fine now that I see you," her mother replied, her voice trembling with emotion.

Kael stood frozen, dumbfounded by the scene unfolding before him.

Sephina’s mother—his grandmother—suddenly turned toward him.

Her golden eyes locked on his for a long moment.

Kael could see a flood of emotions in them—recognition, longing, sorrow, and joy.

Without a word, she rushed toward him, faster than he could react, and enveloped him in a fierce embrace.

"Ugh…" Kael groaned softly, caught off guard by the strength of her hug.

"Sorry," she said, pulling back slightly, only to embrace him again, tears streaming down her cheeks.

Kael remained silent, feeling the warmth of her affection.

After a moment, he raised his arms and hesitantly hugged her back.

The gesture broke her even further, and her quiet sobs turned into audible cries.

"My grandson… I’ve waited so long to meet you. I’m sorry. I’m so sorry!"

Kael felt a lump forming in his throat.

He didn’t know what to say.

All he could do was hold her as she wept.

Larcia stood watching the scene, her red eyes wide.

Her body moved instinctively, stepping closer to Kael.

"Who…who is he?" she asked softly.

Sephina glanced at Zarenth.

"Tell her," she said, her voice steady but with an edge of emotion.

Zarenth smirked.

"Your surprise, Larcia? He’s your nephew." He paused dramatically. "And Sephina’s only son—the great Kael."

Larcia’s jaw dropped. "Don’t joke about this, Zarenth," she said, her voice trembling.

"I’m not joking," Zarenth replied firmly.

Larcia’s eyes darted between Zarenth, Sephina, and Kael.

Her heart already knew the truth, but her mind struggled to process it.

Her legs moved on their own, carrying her closer to Kael.

As Zarenth’s words sank in, Larcia reached him, her hands trembling.

Slowly, she placed her arms around him, joining the embrace with her mother.

Kael’s grandmother pulled back for a moment, only to start peppering his cheeks with kisses, sobbing uncontrollably between each one.

"My dear grandson… My beautiful, precious boy…"

Larcia joined her tears, her arms tightening around Kael.

"You…," she whispered.

Kael was overwhelmed. Surrounded by their warmth and love, he felt a rare sense of belonging that left him speechless.
