Chapter 663: Simple Evolution
Hearing his words, Echidna’s eyes narrowed, and a sly smile formed on her face, “Ready to throw me away now that I have no more use?”
Sol shook his head in response. Truthfully speaking, Lilith and all the others already more or less knew about Echidna. After all, he had been open about the origin of the Seven Opening Chakra.
But back then, because he needed her, his girls had been willing to not argue much about the matter. Even Lilith had stayed silent and simply chose to avoid Echidna.
But things could not continue on as is. It was time to come clean.
“I am not one to repay kindness with evil.” Sol did not think of himself as a good person. But he would never betray someone who helped him. He would never even think about stabbing Echidna in the back after she had been so helpful in his rise to power.
But,
“Your well-being comes second to the one of my loved ones.” He did not mince his words. For him, Echidna was an ally. Nothing more, nothing less. She was not someone he loved or trusted more than he needed to. He knew that the sentiment went both ways. The only reason Echidna helped him was because she wished to accomplish her goal.
“The women I mentioned were all part of my parents— Mars and Blaze’s group back then. More than anyone they are the ones who have the absolute right to make the final decision.” Ultimately, Sol did not feel hatred for Echidna. He had no memories of Mars and Blaze and their death did not affect him much if not at all. That was the ugly truth.
“So, I will let them choose your punishment or whether to punish you in the first place.” He would give them the power to change what they could not do in the past. “What I can assure you is that I will not let them kill nor torture you.”
