Chapter 116: Two Mothers.
When Victor arrived at the place where he heard Sasha"s voice, the scene he came across left him very shocked...
He saw his wife Sasha Fulger the way she came into the world, being hugged by her mother, who was also naked...
"Ah~, my beloved daughter is so beautiful~! Look at those golden hairs that look like a wheat field created by the G.o.ddess Demeter herself, look at those green eyes that look like two beautiful emeralds, she is so beautiful! She is so like me!" Natas.h.i.+a hugged Sasha tighter.
"S-STOP IT!" Sasha tried to run away, but she couldn"t break free from her mother"s clutches.
"You"re just like me…." She smiled gently as she stroked Sasha"s face.
"E-Eh?" Sasha wasn"t used to her mother"s show of affection. In fact, she just wanted to scream from the bottom of her heart; who are you!? What did you do to my mom!?
She knows what happened through Scathach and her own mother, but... "Who"s the idiot who would believe that!? Two personalities!? Seriously!? This looks like the plot of a bad movie! The director who created something like this must be burned at the stake! Because that"s not funny!"
Everyone was quite surprised when they arrived at the fight scene and saw Victor lying on the ground unconscious, and Annasthas.h.i.+a Fulger"s new personality ... She looked like a completely different woman.
Even Agnes and Adonis didn"t know about this personality.
Apparently, only Scathach and a few members of Clan Fulger knew this.
Suddenly Natas.h.i.+a"s eyes take on an annoyed expression, "Except for this part!" She grabbed Sasha"s b.r.e.a.s.t.s.
"Stop it! Don"t grab me!"
"What are these nasty b.r.e.a.s.t.s? Are you sure you"re my daughter? And what with those thick thighs!? Kuuu! Hateful!"
"I do not know! I was born this way! Now let go of me!"
Natas.h.i.+a released her daughter and started to think of something.
"I"m free..." Sasha"s eyes sparkled with joy, and she was going to run away but froze when she saw Victor at the door.
"Eh...?"
"...D-Darling."
"Hmm?" Victor looked at his wife and flashed a small smile, "Oh, continue what you were doing, pretend I"m not here, I"m just a wall..."
"AHHH! As expected, this is because of your father"s genes!?" Natas.h.i.+a screamed as if she had discovered a universal law. "Why is everything silent?" Then she looked to the side and saw Victor.
"Oya?" She exhibited a seductive smile, and suddenly she hugged Sasha again and placed her face side by side with her daughter"s.
"E-Eh?" Sasha"s brain rebooted.
"How about it, my son-in-law. Do you want to practice a trio with a mother and daughter?"
Seeing this vision, Victor, for the first time, realized that the two women were quite alike, just in the face, of course.
"M-Mother, stop it!" Sasha yelled again while her face was completely red.
"I would accept it if it was just my wife, but with you along? No, thank you."
"D-Darling." Sasha was happy, but she didn"t know how to feel about this current situation.
"Tsk, are you still angry about what happened?" Natas.h.i.+a let go of her daughter, stood up, and looked at Victor with an annoyed look.
"Yes." Victor was honest.
Suddenly the whole atmosphere of the place was silent and a little tense.
"D-Darling." Sasha was afraid Victor would start another fight.
"…" Natas.h.i.+a didn"t expect an honest answer.
"…Look, it"s not my fault, okay? That was my other personality. I wasn"t in control."
"That does not matter," Victor spoke in a dry tone.
"E-Eh?"
"Don"t s.h.i.+rk your responsibility, even though it was your other personality, at the end of the day, that woman is still you, right?"
"Well..." Natas.h.i.+a couldn"t deny Victor"s words, she started to think a bit and realized he was correct, so she said:
"Tsk, what do you want me to do then?"
"Isn"t it obvious, dumb woman?"
"Huh?"
"Become a good mother."
"..." A hush descended in the room, and the two women looked at Victor in shock.
"Become a good mother, do what you haven"t done for 21 years of Sasha"s life, take care of her like a real mother should. Protect your daughter, train your daughter, this time in the right way."
"Become a woman your daughter will be proud of in the future, become a mother your daughter will be proud of in the future, become a good Clan leader that your daughter would model in the future. Recover your clan t.i.tle that was stupidly lost."
"... That"s a lot..." Natas.h.i.+a closed her eyes and showed a small smile on her face.
Victor walks towards Natas.h.i.+a, and then stopping in front of her, he lifts her face with his hand.
Natas.h.i.+a opens her eyes and looks into Victor"s red eyes.
"Wrong. This is the least that should be expected of a woman who calls herself an ex-countess. This is the least that should be expected of a woman who is my wife"s mother."
Hearing Victor"s serious tone, Natas.h.i.+a"s whole body visibly trembled as she displayed a seductive smile and said, "Ah~, my daughter is really very lucky~."
"This is a lot of work." She touched Victor"s face and gently caressed his face, "But... you"re right."
Soon, she separates from Victor and walks towards the bedroom"s entrance, and as she walks towards the door, an elegant white dress begins to be created.
"..." Victor looked at this scene, marveling at this technique.
Natas.h.i.+a stopped on the way out of the room, looked back, and displayed an elegant smile:
"I have a job to do, and my daughter..."
"Yes?" Sasha looked at her mother.
"I"m sorry I wasn"t a good mother... I know you won"t forgive me so easily, I know what I"ve done doesn"t deserve forgiveness, but I hope you don"t stop talking to me..." She exhibited a rather fragile face at the end.
"...I..." She gave her a hard look and then turned to Victor for answers.
Victor displayed a gentle smile and spoke through their connection; "That is your decision, my wife. Think, what do you want to do?"
"What do I want to do, huh?" Sasha started to think.
Despite having suffered a lot with her parents, despite having gone through all that in the past, at the end of the day, she was still a child who wanted her parents" affection... Wrong, she was still a child who wanted affection from her mother...
"But Julia..." She didn"t want to forget Julia, the maid who was like a mother to her... She didn"t want to forget her.
Victor knelt down and gently stroked Sasha"s head as he waited patiently for her response.
Sasha grabbed Victor"s s.h.i.+rt as if seeking support.
She suddenly remembered a childhood memory.
...
Coming back from her usual "training", A small, golden-haired child was crying as she hugged a maid.
"Snif, Snif!"
"I hate my mom!" She started to cry louder.
"Ah~, my dear Sasha, don"t cry, don"t cry." The woman spoke in a gentle voice as she stroked the child"s head.
"B-But, Julia. My mother…" the child looked up, her face tearful.
"Haha~, look at your face~." She chuckled gently as she wiped the tears from Sasha"s eyes and soon started pulling at the child"s plump cheeks.
"S-Stop, my cheeks..."
"Ara. I"m sorry, it"s just that your cheeks are so chubby it makes me want to pull them."
"Mooo, I"m serious! My Mother... Wrong, she is not my mother! My mother is you! Wait, if my mom is you? Who is she? Huh?"
Julia wore a gentle smile when she saw that she had succeeded in getting the child to stop crying, and her gentle smile turned into a motherly smile when she saw Sasha all lost in what to say:
"Oya? I don"t remember having such a beautiful daughter like you~." She patted Sasha"s head again.
"Ugh... I wish you were my mom..." The child pouted, then her eyes started to water again.
"Eh? But I"m already your mother." The woman spoke.
"Huh...?" The child put on a confused face, but didn"t she just deny it, saying she wasn"t my mother?
"Haha~, don"t think too much, Sasha."
"Hmm?" Sasha looked at Julia.
Julia lifts Sasha and puts her on her lap.
"Think. You have two mothers. I"m the good mother, and Lady Natasha is your Evil Mother."
"...Evil mother?"
"Yeah, after all, she does things for you that not even a good mother would, right?"
"Yes..."
"And I"m a good mom because I always take care of you, right?"
"Yes..." Sasha thought that logic made sense.
"So you have two mothers!"
"Oh..." The child"s face lit up, but she didn"t know how to feel, knowing she had an evil mother.
"If I ever leave for another job, you"ll be alone with your evil mother..."
"Ugh..." Sasha"s face started to tear up again. She didn"t want to be alone with that woman!
"But I"m sure that in the future, she will become a good mother..."
"…huh? My mom becoming a good mom? Never!" She made an "X" symbol with both hands.
"Hahahaha~, you will understand in the future, now. Let"s go back to the bedroom; you have to go to sleep."
"Ugh…I don"t want to…." She knows that if she goes to sleep, she"ll wake up tomorrow, and "training" will start again.
"Well, what if I tell you a story from the human world?"
"Oh?" Sasha looked like a fish that took the bait as her eyes lit up, "Let"s go to the bedroom!"
She jumped off Julia"s lap and ran towards the bedroom, "What are you waiting for, mother? Let"s go!"
"Yes, my daughter." Julia displayed a gentle smile.
...
Sasha wakes up from her memories when she feels Victor caressing her face.
"D-Darling?"
"Don"t cry, I"m here, you know?" He smiled gently.
"Crying...?" She touched her face and felt tears coming out.
Seeing her daughter"s face, Natas.h.i.+a"s chest tightened as if someone was squeezing her heart, but unlike physical pain, the pain she was feeling now couldn"t be compared to the pain of someone squeezing her heart.
"I see... I hurt her so much, huh?"
Sasha wipes her tears with her hand and thinks; "Two mothers, huh?" She looked at Natas.h.i.+a.
Natas.h.i.+a gulped when she saw her daughter"s gaze, and unconsciously, she squeezed the door entrance she was holding tighter. She was very nervous.
"I... I won"t stop talking to you, but..." She decided to give her mother a second chance.
Natas.h.i.+a felt like a weight had lifted from her heart, but when she heard her daughter"s final words, her heart began to beat faster in nervousness.
"I won"t forget Julia either, she"s my mother too, and that"s something that will never change."
"..." Natas.h.i.+a exhibited a gentle smile.
"That"s enough... Thank you... My daughter." She said as she quickly turned around. She didn"t want her daughter to see her face before she left.
Sasha exhibited a gentle little smile when she heard her mother"s tone of voice. "In the end, I"m a weak woman who can"t hate her own mother, huh? Although... I really don"t want to hate my mother since she is my only living mother, after all... I hope we can get along well in the future."
She thought with self-contempt, but, despite having suffered everything that happened in the past, she still wanted to be close to her mother.
In her heart of hearts, she knew she couldn"t hate her mother completely, but she also knew that there would be no other chance. If her mother didn"t change, she would do her best to disentangle herself from her mother.
A mother is a mother, the blood between the two is thick, and this bond cannot be easily undone.
But… a choice can be made to avoid further disappointment, and Sasha hopes she won"t be forced to make that choice in the future.
Victor said, "Natas.h.i.+a, this time. Don"t let that d.a.m.n personality out." He had no idea how personality swapping worked, but he had to say it just to be sure.
"Don"t worry, my son-in-law. I will not go." She spoke without turning around, then walked down the halls.
As she walked down the halls, she wiped her face, which had small tears coming out:
"I will not waste this second chance." Her eyes gleamed with determination. "I will fix this mess."
"Oh? Tell me how you plan to fix everything." She heard Agnes" voice.
She looks ahead and sees Agnes standing at the corner of the hallway.
Natas.h.i.+a exhibited a gentle smile, "First I will kill my husbands, then I will kill some annoying bugs that are in my clan, then I will go after Clan Horseman."
"Why are all her goals about killing someone?" Agnes thought.
"Why are you going to kill your husbands?" She asked curiously.
"Isn"t it obvious?" Natas.h.i.+a looked at Agnes like she was dumb.
"Huh...?"
"I will do this to be with my new husband~." Natas.h.i.+a displayed a seductive smile, and her eyes darkened completely.
"..." Agnes" head turned a little to the side, and a question mark appeared above her head.
"Your new husband?"
"Yes! If I become a good woman, he will accept me, right? He said it himself!"
"…" Agnes was silent. "When did he say that!?" She was listening to the whole conversation and didn"t remember it.
"All I have to do is destroy some bugs, retrieve what belongs to me, and become a good woman/mother! And by doing this, he will accept me! And consequently, I will get closer to my daughter too!"
"As the saying goes? Two rabbits with a rock? Rabbit? Huh? I think it was something with the rabbit f.u.c.king the rock?"
"Whatever." She gave up thinking.
"Good luck, I think? I support you." She could only say that.
"Thanks, Agnes!" Natas.h.i.+a exhibited a gentle smile and then walked towards the exit of the mansion.
When Natas.h.i.+a"s back was no longer seen, Agnes spoke:
"Did I just encourage a woman to run after my daughter"s husband?" She thought for a moment:
"Well, whatever. It"s not my problem, fight Violet! I trust you, my daughter!" She completely ignored the subject.
"Where"s my Darling?" In the end, all that was on her mind was her husband.
