Mommy Villainess-Chapter 406: To be Swayed

TSK.

Kiho moved to attack the Devil as soon as Tilly disappeared.

However, he stopped when a mirror suddenly appeared between him and the Devil— a mirror showing what was happening in the real world.

He saw Tilly, already awake, confronting Yumi.

Kiho could also see himself still sleeping on the bed while Luna was protecting him.

It was embarrassing that the witch had to protect him, but he could see why he needed protection.

After all, it was due to his own carelessness that he fell into that dimension in the first place.

But is this real? Is the Devil showing me the outside world? Or is it a trick?

"You’re looking at what’s happening in the real world while you’re stuck here," the Devil said as if he could read his mind. "I have no reason to deceive you. In fact, I need you to calm down in order to have a decent conversation with you. And that’s the only reason I’m showing you that I sent your wife back to the real world safely."

It didn’t seem like the Devil was lying.

Hence, Kiho relaxed a bit.

But, of course, he still had his guard up.

"What do you want with me?" Kiho asked carefully. "Don’t get funny ideas, though. I will never side with you."

"I don’t need you, Child of the Moon," the Devil said, laughing as if he was mocking Kiho. "If I need the power of the Moon, I would just absorb it from your father. After all, he still has the Essence of the Moon— something that Kyro hasn’t passed down to you yet."

It was Kiho’s turn to scoff.

The Essence of the Moon was just a fancy way of calling Kyro’s divine power.

Of course, as a major god, his father’s divine power was something that even his fellow major gods would like to covet.

However, Kiho didn’t desire his father’s Essence.

Whether I like it or not, I’m still Kyro’s son, though. Once he dies, I will naturally inherit his Essence. I wonder if there’s a way to reject it.

"Don’t hate your father too much, child."

"Kyro and Yumi tried to hurt my family several times," Kiho said, clenching his hands tight. "I understand why my parents developed hatred for the humankind and the gods who let those things happen to them. But that doesn’t give them the right to hurt my wife and children."

"Do you think it would happen if the gods you fight for didn’t sacrifice your mother and your unborn sister in the first place?" the Devil asked, smirking. "Do you think Kyro would join hands with me if Yumi didn’t go through a horrifice experience?"

He knew that the Devil was trying to sway Kiho.

Even so, he still had no intention to get swayed.

"You’re not going to get me switch sides," Kiho said, scoffing. "In the first place, I am not fighting for any god— I am fighting for my wife and my children."

And everyone his family cared about.

"Then we just have to convince your wife," the Devil said, laughing. "What will you do if your wife gets swayed?"

***

"WHY DID you show me the past?" Tilly asked carefully. "What were you hoping to achieve?"

"Kyro is giving you one last chance, my dear daughter-in-law. If you’ve seen the past, then you must have come to understand the choices that my husband and I made," Yumi said, extending her hand to Tilly. "Come to our side— you and your family."

Haaah.

To be honest, Tilly still hated Yumi and Kyro with all her heart.

After all, as a woman and a mother, she could understand her mother-in-law’s sufferings.

She also questioned the gods who let the tragedy happen as if they sacrificed Yumi and her unborn child on purpose.

No, it was definitely on purpose.

However...

"You and Kyro still tried to kill me and hurt my children on many occasions," Tilly said firmly. "If you think I’ll forgive you for that, then you’re wrong."

Yumi’s face instantly turned cold. "Is that your final answer then?"

"It has always been my only answer."

"I knew there was a reason I never liked you as a daughter-in-law."

"What a coincidence— I also never liked you as a mother-in-law," Tilly said, summoning her flames. Her flaming wings appeared, her hands now engufled in black flames— yes, her Black Flame. "Yumi, I sympathize with you as a woman and a mother. However, that doesn’t give you the right to hurt my family or innocent people who have done nothing to you."

Yumi only smiled bitterly, and then she transformed.

Tilly cursed under her breath while casting a protective shield for Kiho and Luna.

After all, Yumi had taken the form of the giant White Snake— destroying the mansion in the process.

To be honest, she was surprised because this was the first time she saw her mother-in-law in that form.

Moreover...

Tilly knitted her eyebrows. "When did you get that powerful, Yumi?"

***

THE STRING of fate.

Winter wandered around the Plane with Saint Forrester, Julian, and Solenn while looking for the String of Fate that he needed to cut in order to kill Aku without killing his father.

But, to be honest, they were wandering aimlessly.

Haaah.

"If only I was already alive when Aku Moonchester tied his soul to Dad’s soul, then I could have prevented that from happening," Winter complained out loud because he was feeling frustrated. "I wonder if the Plane could send me to the past or something."

He just said it out of frustration, so he felt a bit offended when Saint Forrester, Julian, and Solenn all looked at him as if he had just lost his mind. freēwēbnovel.com

These people...

Winter was about to complain when, all of a sudden, the floor that he was standing on became a warphole.

The next thing he knew, he was already free-falling while everyone was running after him.

"Winter!"
