Chapter 177 Tantrum



"You!!!" 

Upon seeing a particular person, the Nightmare furiously and intensively struggled on her seat as she kept sending daggers at Mother, the one who killed her and stopped her plans. 

"Long time, no see." Greeted Mother. 

"Damn you, Sword Saint! I will fucking kill you once I get out there!!!" 

"Resistance is futile." Mother calmly said. "There is no way you can get yourself free." 

"Nnn!!!" 

The Nightmare struggled more in an attempt to get rid of the chains, but even the chain did not bulge a bit despite her efforts. Afterwards, she came to a sudden realization and ceased contorting her body. 

"Huh? What happened to my body?" The Nightmare noticed the changes in her own body. "Why do I feel so weak—incredibly weak?" 

"You can check your body, you know?" 

"Huh?" The Nightmare arrogantly glared at Mother, and then her eyes suddenly went fully wide open. "What?! Why is my Level is decreasing?!" 

The second her heart started to beat, the effects of the crimson bracelets on each of her wrists started to take effect. Right now, her Level has decreased to twenty percent and is continuing to sink lower. 

"What did you do to me, you bitch?!" The Nightmare furiously glared at Mother. "Die!" 

The Nightmare probably did something, but nothing happened in the room. Seeing that her supposed attack to kill Mother miserably failed, the Nightmare went furious anew. 

"What?! Why can I not use my magic?!" 

"It was sealed, of course." 

"Impossible!" 

The Nightmare shouted in her seat as she was trying to struggle and get rid of her restraints. And before she realized it, her Level had been degraded to one. 

We let her go wild and vent her anger. As she did, I began my inspection of her.

Hm. She was a Dungeon Conqueror, huh? Perhaps she got her whip from a difficult dungeon somewhere. Since there was no record of her weapon in history. 

The Imperial Dungeon was first conquered a thousand years ago, and throughout its history, only three weapons were pulled out of there. 

The two, a rapier and a staff, were owned by my parents, while the other one, which was apparently a spear, was being displayed at the audience chamber of the Imperial Royal Palace. 

I initially thought that the Demonic Series could only be looted from the Imperial Dungeon but I could be wrong as well. There might be dungeons out there that could produce legendary or even mythical grade artifacts. 

(Legendary weapons are already scary, much more of the mythical ones.) 

The allocation of her stats was more inclined toward her defenses. She was fast and not proficient with magic, but her magic was still powerful in layman's terms. 

She had many skills on her plate, but there was one that was new to me, like the Mental Dive. Just as the name implied, Mental Dive was apparently a skill that allowed the user to enter one's mind and read their memories. It was definitely a must-copy skill. 

"Wait! What happened to my skills?!" 

In the middle of my inspection, the loud voice of the Nightmare, whose name was Rubina, brought me to the current situation. As I could guess, she seemed to notice the other abnormality occurring in her body. 

"Not only your magic, but your skills had been disabled as well." 

"Sealing skills?! How was that even possible?!" 

"Well," Mother then sidled toward me and grabbed my arm. "You can ask my son about that." 

"Hello." I waved my free hand to Rubina as she fixed her crimson eyes on mine. 

"Son? Does the Sword Saint even have children?" 

"Oh, so you do not know anything, huh?" 

"Know what?" 

"That seventeen years have passed since you were killed by my blade." 

"What bullshit are you talking about?" 

Uh, huh. It looked like the Nightmare had not realized that she had been killed and then revived. She probably thought that she had been put to sleep by Mother and was sent here for an interrogation. 

"So you really did not remember, huh?" Mother shook her head in dismay. "Anyways, let me introduce you to my son, his name is Raphael. He is our second child, by the way." 

"Hello again." 

"Huh? I don't understand. From what I could remember, your partner was reportedly the Sage, who was a woman. How can you have a child this old when you were still in your twenties and had a female partner?" 

"That was seventeen years ago." 

"What?" 

"When we fought, I effectively killed you and successfully took away your Monarch of the Night ultra skill from you using my legendary weapon." 

Hearing Mother, Rubina went dumbfounded for a moment before she reacted. 

"No way... Impossible! This is absurdly stupid!" 

From her reaction, I could assume that Rubina had finished checking herself and saw that her ultra skill had been erased from her board. If I were in her position, I would even cry out for it. 

"Once acquiring the skill," Mother deliberately ignored Rubina's whines and continued. "I did not waste any time and impregnated my wife." 

(Do not lie, Mother. You did not impregnate Mom immediately.) 

As I was thinking that, Mom drew closer to us and then grabbed the other arm. 

"And after seventeen long years, we ultimately decided to resurrect you in front of the blessing that you had inherited from me." 

"You, bitch! I would never accept this nonsense!" 

Rubina began throwing tantrums after that. She did not stop, so we decided to leave the cell and come back after she calmed down.
