…

I thought she had reached the cap for how many skills and titles she could acquire… but somehow, she surpassed everything.

My mother stretched out her hand, and with her instant speed, Zehar was taken by surprise, forcing him to make his move as he swung downwards.

Her hand just barely scraped the edge of the sword, but it had already fallen off due to a fleshy decay eating away at her body.

Although, golden flames erupted from her arm, swallowing not only the plague tearing off her flesh but also the sword and Zehar.

There were no screams of pain from Zehar, but it was obvious he had been knocked unconscious as the deadly miasma that was previously spreading through the room swiftly disappeared.

The golden flames were incredible and burned brightly before disappearing into the atmosphere, leaving an image of my mother that would be ingrained into my mind forever.

She stood above Zehar, eyes cold, waiting for him to wake up, but upon seeing not even a muscle of his was twitching, she turned towards me and gave me a cheeky thumbs up as if that previous cold personality of hers was all a trick.

"I-Is he still alive?" I asked just to make sure.

"Of course, but the only reason why these flames worked so well is that Zehar is a horseman of the apocalypse… just like you, right? I thought your vines would be black or something,"

Mother quickly walked over to me and embraced me with a warm hug so sweet that even honey rats would've fainted from the tanginess.

I tried to suppress my tears as even though I could barely remember things from my childhood, I knew this familiarity and sweetness was something I had experienced long ago.

"It's okay… you can cry," my mother muttered, patting the back of my head and laying my head on her shoulder.

And just like that, I whimpered out a few tears for the first time since I was a child.

"Mom left me so lonely… I know she has lots of things to do, but I always hoped I could see her more than three times a year… even when I try to get in contact with her, I'm immediately denied because she just keeps working and working,"

As words spewed from my mouth, I couldn't help but cry even more.

"Treyni left you alone?"

"Mm…" I slowly nodded my head with my knees nearly buckling upon my overflowing emotions.

"Alright, just sit down," Mother said, bringing me over to a chair and then helping Zehar up, who had just opened his eyes.

He tried to fight against her help, but after a few stern words and glaring eyes, he finally gave in and just shut up.

His grumbles of anger and disappointment didn't stop even as my mother sat down, but this time I knew what question she would ask.

"Tell me where Hades is… now."
