Over the past two years, Adam had started to grow on her. Now, she saw him no different than her own little brother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite all of Adam’s flaws, she loved him dearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She reached out with her hand and gently ruffled his raven hair. “Why are you looking at it so intensely?” Her lips curled into a smirk, and she added, “You can’t eat it, you know.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I know.” Adam nodded. “Mama once told me these flowers should not be eaten. They’re meant to give one hope.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anna’s eyes flickered with a peculiar light. She arched an eyebrow and asked curiously, “What did she say about these flowers?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adam recalled the exact words of her mother and spoke, “These flowers remind us that no matter how long the darkness lasts, warmth will return.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He paused, his shoulders slowly slouching. “She said things will always get better even after the harshest winter…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boy’s lips quivered and he whispered, “I miss her…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anna’s heart ached when she heard those words. It was heartbreaking for a child to lose their parents. Especially so when they were young.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She couldn’t even begin to imagine what Adam would have done if she hadn’t met him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anna pulled him into a gentle side embrace and softly patted his head. “Don’t cry now. You must remember that you are a continuation of your mother and father. They may be gone, but a part of them still lives through you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mmh!” Adam nodded, wiping away his tears. “Mama said, big boys don’t cry.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He put on a menacing expression, as if intimidating his own tears into retreat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such an adorable action caused Anna to chuckle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What!” Adam glared at her. “Don’t laugh at me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah, I just recalled something else,” the crimson-haired woman covered her mouth, silently chuckling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adam frowned. Suddenly, he thought of something and asked excitedly, “Anna! Anna! You’re a Magus, right? Teach me a spell! A white-flower spell!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anna shook her head slightly, finding the boy’s expressions quite amusing. “I don’t know any ‘white-flower’ spell. I mainly practice fire magic, and most of the spells I know, I’m afraid I can’t teach them to you because of an oath I’ve sworn.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adam’s brows furrowed. He pursed his lips and looked away. “Hmph! You are stinky.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anna’s lips twitched. “You mean stingy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adam turned to her with narrowed eyes. “R-right.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He paused for a moment, his expression adorably angry. “Anna, you are stingy!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boy then got to his feet and softly added, “And stinky, too…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A vein on the side of Anna’s forehead throbbed in annoyance. “My foolish little brother, you must never call a lady stinky. It is simply bad manners.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adam deeply looked at the crimson-haired woman before sticking his tongue out. “Blegh! Stinky Anna!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The following moment, he saw Anna silently rise to her feet. Knowing what would come next, he hurriedly dashed away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Come here, you!” Anna called out, chasing after him with a slipper in hand. “Seems like I must discipline you again!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Stinky Anna, you’ll never catch me! Heehee!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound of joy and laughter drifted in the spring breeze as the sun sank below the horizon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surroundings seemingly shifted around the siblings, the field of golden crops replaced by the buildings of Jeeling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anna wiped Adam’s tears away with a gentle expression on her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To the world, he may be Black Vengeance, the Tyrant, the Dark King, but to her… he was just a little child, her little brother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adam continued to sob as he looked at Anna’s face. She looked the same as she had decades ago. It seemed that she hadn’t aged a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You… how…” he struggled to form words. The tears just won’t stop flowing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anna pulled him into an embrace. She gently patted his back and whispered, “Remember what your mother said. Big boys don’t cry.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that made Adam cry even more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His shoulders trembled incessantly, and his eyes had already reddened and were slightly swollen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He tightly hugged his sister and cried out loud, “Anna, I missed you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I know, I know.” Anna smiled, gently patting his back. “I’m here now. I promised you I’ll return, and I’ve kept my promise.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While the two siblings shared a warm moment, the nearby Magi were stunned speechless. Firstly, they never thought that their relationship would be so deep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Secondly, they had never expected to see such a vulnerable side of Adam.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially Raidon, he couldn’t believe his eyes. He had always known his Lord Commander as a fierce warrior, a man amongst men, who would maul through the ranks of the enemy and leave nothing but death and destruction in his wake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet now, seeing Adam in such a state left a strange taste in his mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was… touched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She must really mean a lot to him, he thought to himself with a warm smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other side, Kaspar stroked his beard, gazing at the siblings’ interaction with a faint smile on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I did not imagine them to be so close, he wondered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Princess’s love for the boy is almost… maternal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the Dark King…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze shifted to the raven-haired young man, his smile deepening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He is just that. A boy. It’ll be easy to pull his strings. He will be a great asset to the Kingdom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adam took a deep breath and gradually calmed down his uncontrollable emotions. Everything had happened so suddenly that he felt like it was a dream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it wasn’t.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anna was here, standing right before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes,” he smiled brightly. “You’ve kept your promise!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anna clasped Adam’s shoulder and nodded. “And you’ve kept yours. You’ve become a splendid Magus. I am very proud of you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adam laughed brashly. “Of course! I’ll have you know, your little brother is the strongest Magi in these lands! Haha, well, except for the Mana Core Magi.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anna shook her head, exasperated. “You’ve become quite arrogant, too.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adam winked at her. “Trust me, sister. This is not arrogance. I’m merely confident in my abilities. Trust me when I say this… In the realm of the Mana Vortex Rank, there isn’t a man alive who can look me in the eye and claim they’re better.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaspaer, who was standing nearby, stroked his beard, his eyes flashing with a crafty glint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Good, he is cocky, he mused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This will be easier than I thought!\u003C\u002Fp>",1178,"2026-05-29T04:45:00.825Z","2026-06-01T04:29:11.309Z",1,"novelbin.me","a3dacf0bb5b546989c31d313e32ae4ddc63535b467bae461fbfe13760af3953e","greatest-legacy-of-the-magus-universe-chapter-878","greatest-legacy-of-the-magus-universe-chapter-876",1765,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgreatest-legacy-of-the-magus-universe-cover.jpg"]
