Chapter 350 : Mother's Plea

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE

---

"Am...Ambrosius...." Orion asked, his voice almost shuttering at this time. A chill spread through his body. He didn't even care about the child and look at Elenora.

"What, you hid your name, why can't I do the same." Elenora said with a smile on her face. Though her wound was bad but it wasn't fatal, what was dangerous was the blood loss itself.

But she didn't seems to care at all. Orion on the other hand was shocked to the point that his head needed a hard reboot right now.

Countless things were running in his head right now.

'No... there is no way its her right. The time doens't match....' even he didn't knew that he was shaking right now. Wanting to asked her name but he couldn't.

"I'm Elenora Dragona Ambrosius." She didn't seems to see the strange state orion was in, she was running out of time so she just took out something from her neck and put it in Orion's hand.

"Please, keep this, give it to him when he is of age..." Elena said as she made Orion hold that thing while requesting for Orion to look after her child.

Orion was still too shock to say anything, he just look down in his palm, only to find a very familiar looking locket in it. From the colour to the weight, everything was just like the one he was wearing right now.

"They will come after him, just like they come after me..." She said with a weak voice.

"I have put a letter for him in that pendant, give it to him when the time is right."

... Orion just kept his quite, his body was shaking, his mind was buzzing, his eyes were half moist and half daze.

'Is the woman in front of him is his mother, the timeline doesn't fit at all, but the feeling. This feeling of closeness towards her he feel, he is not even sure what to think about it.

There seems to be a lumb forming inside his throat, he wanted to say something but no sound came out. He just remain there, holding the woman in his hands, slowing losing her life.

"Any..anything you want to say to him." he finally asked, not what he wanted to asked but this was close enough.

"I..." She thought, she did wrote a letter to her son, she wrote everything there. But can the emotions be passed by that letter ?

She look into Orions eyes which were hardly holding back the tears and close her own eyes.

Not sure why but she feel pain in those eyes, so she didn't wanted to look in them anymore.

"Tell him that I love him.

That I am sorry that I can't be with him.

I... I really wants to, but I can't. I no longer have the time. I thought I had more but..." A choke stopped her, from her eyes which were close yet tears trail down from them.

"Tell him that I am... proud of him." She open her eyes, she was the one who ended up crying first after all. Though wasn't much embarass seeing that the man holding him had those tears too.

"I'll... I'll do that." Orion nodded, trying hard to hold back those tears now. He hismelf wasn't sure what was going on with him. It almost felt like his body was failing him. Shaking, mind buzzing, heart palpitations, this tightness in his chest.

If he didn't knew better than he surely would have thought that he is having an heart attack.

"Thanks..." Elenora said with a smile, wiping her tears and then finally turning towards her son.

"You have a big destiny to fullfill son, I am sorry but I can't stay with you. But please, remember that you are not alone... you will know when the time is right....

Why this was necessary to do." Elenora said and then look at Orion while giving the baby to him. Orion was hesitate to take him.

It felt like that if he didn't, something, he can't go back anymore. Pursing his lips, he could only bite his own lips and just hold the boy.

"Here, take this." She then took out a letter from somewhere and give it to him.

"This was meant for Credence, but now I know that just like me, he too don't have much time. In this case, you are the only person who I can leave this too. Sorry again, haha..." She said and let out a soft chuckle, getting even more weak.

"I know you have questions, that letter have every answer you might need. Again I am sorry for doing this to Orion. But... I only have you who I can rely on." She said and slowly touch his hands slowly like showing her remorse.

"Originally I was planning to do this with Credence but... he can't go on anymore. You are the only one who can..." she said, which Orion could only think about she was talking about taking care of the baby.

"I am sorry..." she said with her voice trembling. Something was wrong, Orion could feel it.

"I know you have someone to search, someone to go to after this but, I am helpless..." She continue with a very remorseful tone. There was pain in that voice.

"What are you talking about." Orion asked, now wondering whether they both where talking about the same thing or not.

"I have no other choice, sorry.

I know you won't be able to forgive me after this but please, understand that I did it for the world...

You are the only one who can protect him and teach him.

Please, promise me you will stay with him... you will help him for what is about to come..." She said now with a little more sorrow in her voice, but there was a clear anxiety in her voice as well.

Orion didn't get it, but seeing her distress in this her last moments, just just agree with almost anything she asked him.

Finally only upon when he agree and promise her that she calm down.

"I am sorry... I know you will hate me for this..." That was the last thing he said before she did something.

Large amount of magical power started to pour out of her, enough to even put someone like Orion on guard.

'The hell, this is Law...

This... Law of Time....'
