Chapter 114 Selvih's Mother!

In a secret room located in the palace of the Dark-Elf Kingdom. The room was a bit dark, and the only light source came from the stones mounted on the wall that were giving off a faint aura.

The room was quite large, and it was about 200 square meters. In the middle of the room there was a small lake. A woman was sitting beside the lake, she wore a black jumpsuit. She had brown hair, and the dark-Elf's signature honeycomb skin. Her face was extremely beautiful but she looked a bit like Selvih.

The woman sat quietly looking at the lake like a statue, her eyes were lifeless, and her beautiful face was devoid of any emotion. Combined with this murky space, anyone who happened to gaze at her would think that she was a statue.

Suddenly, the woman raised her head, joy appearing on her expressionless face. She said: "Selvih, did you come to visit me?"

Selvih stood on the water, her cold face looking at the woman then she said: "Don't misunderstand me. I just wanted to find a quiet place."

When Selvih finished speaking she sat down by the lakeside, and paid no attention to the woman, her sad face looking into the distance.

The lake was not large, and it was only about five meters in diameter, and their sitting positions were not far apart, so the other woman could clearly see the sadness on Selvih's face.

The woman stared at Selvih, and this made her uncomfortable. Selvih raised her head, she frowned then said: "If you keep looking at me, I'll gouge out your eyes. Don't think that because you're my mother I won't do anything to you."

When the woman heard that she was not angry or afraid, she just smiled and replied: "If you were that cruel, then I am afraid that I wouldn't have been able to live till this day."

Selvih angrily shouted: "No, you are wrong. I am cruel, I want you to live in solitude and remember your sins, that will be my revenge , Seivia."

Yes, that woman was named Seivia, and she was Selvih's mother.

Seivia recalled when Selvih began to compete for the throne, her father and her other brothers thought that Selvih could not become the Queen of the Dark-Elf race.

However, they were wrong, and they underestimated Selvih.

Selvih slowly killed all her brothers, and her father, to become the Dark-Elf Queen. Just like the legends passed around , the day she took over the throne was also the day a lot of people died.

Blood was spilled, and corpses piled up into mountains.

The scene of the day Selvih became the Dark-Elf Queen was extremely murky and full of blood.

However, there was one person who was still alive and that was Selvih's mother, Seivia. Despite being lucky to survive, Seivia was locked in this room for over 2,000 years, and she was only able to see the outside world thanks to the few spells that Selvih allowed her to use.

She was like a bird in a cage, and she was without freedom.

Seivia shook her head and sighed, she said: "Selvih, if you didn't imprison me, then the sins that I have committed would imprison my soul. Yes, it was I who married your sister to the prince of the Light-Elf race. However, I just wanted her to be happy and I didn't think it would end that way."

Selvih sneered, her face full of disdain, she said: "You said that you wanted her to be happy? Do you know what my sister went through?"

Seivia cried, tears rolling down her cheeks: "Of course, I know. I was so stupid back then, I thought that as long as your sister became the light-elf Prince's wife, she would be safe."

"She is also my daughter, seeing her suffer like that also broke my heart. But if I tried to bring your sister back to the Dark-Elf kingdom, war would break out."

"The Light-Elves will certainly consider it an act of defiance to their honor and your father and the Senate would certainly make you your sister's replacement."

"I lost your sister then, I don't want to lose you too."

Selvih was not surprised by what Seivia said, Selvih already knew everything. It was because of that that She allowed Seivia to live. However, despite not killing her, Selvih still did not want Seivia to have a good life, so she locked Seivia in this room for 2,500 years.

Selvih bowed her head and said: "I know, I know everything. Why do you think you're alive? Because I know you are the only one who wanted to save my sister. However, you are locked up because I hate you, I hate you for marrying my sister to that bastard."

Seivia bowed her head and cried, her tears falling like a waterfall. The two of them said nothing as they silently looked at the clear lake surface.

After a while, Seivia wiped her tears and looked at Selvih, who was still staring blankly at the lake. Seivia smiled and said: "Selvih, you're in love with someone, aren't you?"

Selvih was suddenly startled, her face filled with disbelief as she looked at Seivia, then sadly said: "That's right."

Selvih did not hide it from Seivia because they were both women, and Seivia was imprisoned in this place, so she was unable to contact anyone other than Selvih. Therefore, her secret was absolutely safe.

Seivia inched closer to Selvih and asked: "So… why are you sad? Isn't that your sister's dream? Find someone you love and live with them for the rest of your life."

Selvih frowned and said: "But Anno loves that person too, I can't..."

It wasn't difficult to hear a hint of jealousy in Selvih's voice. Seivia smiled and said, "Let me tell you about my love story with another girl."

Selvih looked up at Seivia in surprise, she confirmed once more: "You and… another girl?"

Seivia smiled and nodded: "That's right. Surprised, right?"

"Before marrying your father, I fell in love with a girl. That girl had been my best friend since we were young."

"At that time, I thought that she and I were just close friends. However, as we grew up, we realized that we were in love."

"What was more amazing was that the girl also loved me. We loved each other, however, the love between me and her could not be revealed to anyone."

"Then… then I was married off to your father by my family. That girl said she wanted to take me away from the Dark-Elf kingdom. However, at that time I was very scared. Although I loved her very much, I was also very afraid, so I didn't dare to run away with her."

"After that, I married your father, and that girl also disappeared, even though I searched everywhere, I could not find her again."

Selvih suddenly asked: "Don't you love my father?"

Seivia lowered her head, she was reminiscing about the time when Seivia and her husband were together. After a while, Seivia gently nodded.

Seivia said: "Even though I married your father because of my family's compulsion, at that time I thought that if I worked hard, I would build a happy family."

"However, that was just my own wishful thinking. He didn't love me at all, he even did terrible things to me."

As Seivia said this, her face became even sadder, her eyes filled with fear. She shivered a bit but managed to hold it back. She took a deep breath and said: "He treated me like a commodity and forced me… to sleep with other men."

When Selvih heard this she was surprised. She didn't know how cruel a man had to be to force his wife to sleep with other men.

Selvih grew angry, and clenched her fists tightly. Although Seivia didn't say much, Selvih understood how horrible those memories were.

Selvih regretted letting her father die quickly. She thought to herself that she should have tortured that man, and made him regret being in this world.

Seivia cried, tears rolling down her cheeks. Maybe… she would never forget those horrible memories. A girl who hoped for a happy family ended up being treated like a commodity by her own husband.

Seivia said while crying: "I used to think that if I had bravely run away with that girl at that time, maybe we would have had a happy life."

Seivia raised her head, showing a gentle smile. She patted Selvih's head and said, "Selvih, whether your feelings are forbidden or criticized by everyone, follow your heart's call. The people who are criticizing you out there cannot give you a happy life. Your happiness can only be obtained by yourself."

"Selvih, don't become someone like me, don't be like your sister. What if you and Anno both like the same person? As long as that person loves you, and treats you well, that's enough. I think Anno would be willing to build a happy relationship with you and that person."

"Selvih, don't be afraid, don't think too much. Happiness is in front of you, hold on to that person, and don't lose them."

When Selvih heard this she smiled, a smile that came from her heart, not the mysterious smile she often showed. Selvih sighed and said, "Thanks, mom."

When Seivia heard Selvih say the word 'mom' she was startled, then she happily hugged Selvih tightly. Tears welled up again, but this time they were happy tears.

Seivia sobbed: "Selvih, do you think I'm dirty?"

Selvih shook his head and replied, "Of course not."

After that, Selvih and Seivia parted, Selvih's face suddenly turned indifferent, she said: "However, I haven't forgotten about my sister."

Seivia shook her head, she wiped her tears and said: "It's okay, I don't need your forgiveness, as long as you find your happiness and hold onto it."

Selvih smiled and left, before leaving she said: "You can come to the anniversary of my rule of the kingdom."

Seivia was overjoyed when she heard this, then, her eyes suddenly showed determination. Seivia whispered, "Selvih, I don't have anything for you. However, I have one last thing left, hopefully, that gift will be of use to you."

…

Back at the Pharmacist Tower, Hikaru was alone in his room. Anno was also in her own room. At first, Anno wanted to share a room with Hikaru, however he refused. After all, a man and a woman living together are very prone to strange things happening...

Hikaru lay on a large bed, then he took the box containing the pill that Tsuraguki had given him earlier. Currently he had more than 2 billion soul points, now he wanted to use a billion soul points to evolve this pill, and increase his battle strength.

Hikaru chose to evolve the pill, and right after that, a bulletin board appeared in front of him.

[Ding! To evolve the Blood Moon pill, you need to spend 1 billion soul points. Do you agree or not?]

"Agree!"

[Ding! Successful evolution.]

The pill suddenly emitted a dazzling light like a miniature sun. At this moment, Rika's voice resounded in his head: [Master, swallow that pill. Hurry up.]

Hikaru of course obeyed Rika, and put the pill in his mouth and immediately swallowed it.
