Chapter 390: "You're Both"

"Twame...them?" Ainsley blinked. She abruptly turned around and looked up at the Godfather with a weird gaze. 

Tame the inner demons? Are you crazy? Don't we need to crush these demons and break free? Tame them? Heck! 

The Godfather had predicted Ainsley's reaction, so he didn't feel offended by her showing her suspicion like that. 

With his hands on the baby's cheek, the Godfather shrugged. 

"Others will tell you to crush these demons but listen to this lord. It's more beneficial to tame them." 

The Godfather looked at one of the inner demons and grinned. 

"You see how many inner demons there are inside your mind?" 

"Hum…" 

"You can collect them to create a bloodthirsty aura or something...ah, it's like intimidation, you know?" 

The Godfather casually kneaded Ainsley's cheek once more as he explained. 

"This lord's dominance ability is also triggered because this lord tamed this lord's inner demons and made them work to create an intimidating aura." 

That's how people could shudder and faint just by locking eyes with the Godfather. 

"The secret is not to crush your inner demons but make sure they don't annoy you. That's why this lord tells you to tame them." 

At that moment, Ainsley was enlightened. The baby looked at the Godfather with wide eyes. 

"Y-you ale a genius, Gwodfathel! A genius!" The baby lifted her hands and hugged Godfather in reflex. 

That's right. Why didn't I think to tame the demons? 

These inner demons can help me create an intimidating aura to scare others...that will be similar to dominance but used to bluff! 

What Ainsley lacked was an air of a charismatic baby and the intimidating aura could help her a lot. 

Beside being cute and charming, she also needed others to fear her. 

These inner demons would be so useful! 

"How do we tame them then?" Ainsley was suddenly motivated to deal with the inner demons. She forgot all the things with her immense guilt etc...because she saw a profit! 

The Godfather saw through Ainsley's simple nature and laughed. 

This kid is so straightforward…

"Well, it's easy. You have to accept them as they are. Once you do that, you can charm them using your charm ability. They will all obey you." 

This sounded easy, but to accept the inner demons as they were, it means that Ainsley had to admit her guilt, face it and not fight it anymore. 

She had to face her hatred, her jealousy, and so on. 

It didn't mean that she had to let go of them, but she had to know that these things existed inside her, and they're all part of her. 

These hideous things are also herself, a dark part that existed. She had to embrace it and move on with the fact that she's not that kind...nor innocent. 

She's a murderer, yes. 

She's jealous of others, yes. 

She's selfish, of course. 

She hated someone, yes. 

She was to blame for her people's death...yes. 

But that's all what shaped her to be what she was today. 

Ainsley closed her eyes and absorbed all of these thoughts, following the Godfather's guidance. 

She saw how many people she killed when she fought the Aretha family. She saw how bloody her hands were and how many lives were lost in her hands. 

At first, Ainsley shuddered. She subconsciously wanted to run and deny those things, but Godfather suddenly placed his hands on the baby's shoulders. 

"Don't run away. Admit it. Admit that you're a mass murderer. You're evil. You're not kind." 

These were things that Ainsley disliked. She didn't want others to call her evil, a mass murderer, a villainess, etc…

But the Godfather told her to admit it. 

"Admit it, Lil Lass. Don't be a hypocrite. Everyone has a dark side inside them...and these are yours." 

Ainsley killed many, many people. She's a murderer. She's not innocent. She's evil. But that's it. 

The one choosing whether to remain evil or not would be the baby herself. 

"One day, you will have to kill people again. You will do it for yourself or your family. Face it. Don't run away. It doesn't define you as evil or not." 

You're the one defining whether you're evil or not. Those saved by those killings will tell you whether you're evil or not. 

You kill others for the sake of others...that's both evil and kind in one place. Why should you exclude the evil part? That's just hypocrisy. 

Admit that you're both evil and kind. Two sides of a coin. Darkness and Light. Good and bad. 

You're both. 

When Ainsley listened to the Godfather's soft speech, she gradually relaxed her body. 

The baby didn't clench her teeth anymore or had the urge to run away from her inner demons. 

She slowly stood up, still with her eyes closed and approached those bloodied figures. 

Ainsley opened her arms wide, and instead of running away, she dived into the crowd of inner demons with a smile on her face. 

"Cwome! Cwome at me! Let's...let's hug!" The baby hugged one of the bloodied figures, catching them off-guard. 

The figures couldn't speak, but they could move. One by one, they subconsciously got away from the baby, not wanting to receive her hug. 

But Ainsley didn't care. She slowly opened her eyes and hugged the inner demons…

One by one. 

"I killed you. I'm sowwy. I'm evil! I know. But let's hwug for now." The baby hugged the guilt she had for killing her enemies. 

"I'm a jwealous pewson, yezh! But that's owkay. Let's hwug first!" She hugged her jealousy. 

"I...hatwed my dad! He's a scumbag! But let's hwug for now…" Ainsley hugged her hatred for her father while whispering softly. 

"Later, maybe we should kwill that bastald…" 

The Godfather who heard it almost choked.
