Chapter 238: The Death King’s Family (2)
Swish.
Black water swirled around Goldencup. Or maybe it was a shadow, not water. Whether it was amniotic fluid or the shadow that they would drag along until they died, this was a perfect way to represent her birth.
[The Skill Earthbone Dragon’s Skull is active.]
The water... Err, shadow... The watery shadow enveloped Goldencup.
Swish, swoosh.
I could hear that mysterious water sloshing inside Goldencup’s cocoon. After a while, the cocoon became smaller. It kept getting smaller and smaller until it finally shrank to the size of a child’s toy bell. Only a marble was left in my palm. Its texture was similar to water, but it was as dark as a shadow.
This small thing was Sylvia Evanail’s existence. I held the marble between my thumb and index finger, then dropped it in my mouth as if it were a cherry on top of a cake.
Everyone in the hall was watching me nervously. In their eyes, I was neither the Duke Consort of Ivansia nor the Young Heaven of the Heavenly Demon Cult anymore but a demigod with a divine authority.
As they watched a demigod’s miracle with bated breath, I chewed on the marble. Of course, the marble didn’t taste like cherries. Those were sweet with a sour aftertaste. However, the more I chewed on the marble, the more Sylvia Evanail’s existence started tasting like a sad rainy day.
“L-Lady Sylvia.”
“Remember, you’re an asshole to someone too.”
