“Adopted?!” The Goddess cried out in alarm. She had no way to observe what was going on in this dimension without her being personally present, so she had no idea of the happenings that went down during Quinlan’s stay here.
“Yes… they are in their honeymoon phase, I think they would be happy even if the laddy shat himself so they could clean his rear and change his underwear.” Malakar murmured with disgust.
“Oh!” Mearie immediately snapped out of her wrath and started daydreaming.
“I would absolutely love that!” Luminara yelled euphorically while instinctively making the hand gestures of replacing a baby’s diaper with a new one.
“I… I don’t know what to say… I’m sorry…” Lilyanna murmured with a downcast expression. She finally knew why she was treated so badly, and she understood them completely. Although she had never experienced motherhood personally, she understood very well how protective some mothers could get, and even better than that, she knew how much these two had suffered due to what happened in the past, for which she was to blame as far as she was concerned.
“Forget about it. Instead, tell us what the lad did to earn your ire.” Malakar said, trying to make her cheer up.
They had no way to surveil Thalorind from here, so they had no clue what was going on there. The only information they gathered since being sealed in here came from the Goddess’ lips exclusively.
His question had an immediate effect on Lilyanna as she scoffed once again and life returned to her heavenly beautiful face. “Let’s start with the fact that his first act since arriving was to watch a poor merchant family get ambushed by goblins! He literally watched from the bushes as two men were killed and two desperate women were dragged away! Then he had the galls to move in once it was safe and loot everything for himself!”
“Wait, what do you mean ‘since arriving’? Shouldn’t it be ‘since being born’?” Malakar asked curiously. The two mothers keenly perked their ears with worry etched all over their faces. They all knew that something was off with Quinlan since he was born millions of years after the last primordial, furthermore, he was born into a fully populated world without even a female primordial to accompany him. There was simply no reason for an elder god to spend great amounts of divinity to birth him. That wasn’t all, though. He had two primordial classes, a first in primordial history, and he was also very calm, collected, and mature for a newborn, even by primordial standards.
“I don’t know where he came from, but he was a normal human in a different world, probably an adult at that. She did something to turn Quinlan into a primordial and to summon him to Thalorind, most likely to act as a piece in her nefarious plan to overthrow me, so I intervened when I sensed an alien being summoned to my world. Quinlan was meant to arrive in her domain, but I acted instantly and exerted so much divinity that I had to enter hibernation, but I managed to redirect his path to the Iskaris continent.”
“Fucking slut… Just let me get my hands on her!” Mearie hissed in a truly foul mood.
Luminara meanwhile sighed with relief. What they learned about Quinlan being brought here by her was worrying and she was frustrated as well, but the first elf was beyond elated to know that he was not some supernatural being, her baby was just a truly special one. His being a human with a decade or two extra life experiences under his belt meant nothing to ones like them who were as old as Thalorind itself.
“Anyhow! Back to my rant about your evil son! The next time you should threaten him with a good smacking, not me!” Lilyanna grumbled angrily. “As soon as he had some free time to himself, his first act was to buy a slave! He didn’t even try to visit the Adventurers’ Guild to make good friends he could team up with, he scoffed dismissively while reading the guild’s advertisement pamphlet and outright went to the slave district and bought a slave!”
“Ayame, right? She is a bit petite for my liking but she is a good girl.” Mearie stated as if the Goddess’ claims of him being a scumbag with severe trust issues did not affect her opinion of him at all.
“Quinnie will scold us again if we call her that… you know as well as I do that her size is more than good enough to birth a healthy child for him.” Luminara warned her fellow mother with a low, careful whisper as if she were afraid Quinlan would overhear and chide them again. She really didn’t want that to happen.
“Oh, right!” Mearie gasped and snapped both of her palms to her lips while quickly looking left and then right, worried that her son might be listening from somewhere.
Malakar sighed tiredly due to their antics but Lilyanna seemed oblivious as she continued her tale. “He then recently got that most horrendous class! I hate it! It’s the worst!”
“Subjugator. Sounds pretty strong to me. I like the name, it’s mighty.” Malakar nodded approvingly.
“It’s not mighty but ugly! Scary! Horrible!” The Goddess yelled animatedly.
“It fits him very well.” Mearie decreed.
“Yeah, and think about it!” Luminara started before excitedly glancing at the Goddess, “he is the only primordial who is free to act in Thalorind. If he got something like a Primordial Warrior class, he would be hopeless in his lonesome considering how young he is and how some mortals have reached truly incomprehensible levels of power. He is behind the power curve way too much. However, he can not only create a mighty army with the Subjugator class, but also bolster them beyond their natural power, and I’m sure he’ll receive even greater abilities as he levels it up.”
“Ugh…” Lilyanna grumbled annoyedly. She didn’t like that no one took her side in hating on the newborn primordial. Not one bit.
However, she had a secret weapon. “He did something recently that even you will think to be unjustifiable! I’m sure of it!” She took a deep breath as she collected her thoughts, and then she revealed it. “He allowed his worker slaves to r-r-rape one of his female slaves!”
