Chapter 104

After presenting her dantian to Richard.

Within the countless darkness, Sharon Pierce seemed again on herself.

Looking back, she was nothing. Simply blindly chasing after one need.

That need wasnt one thing grand like development. It wasnt as noble or prestigious as knighthood. It was one thing too mundane. But, it was extra treasured to Sharon than anything.

Thats why Sharon Pierce is straight.

Each the trail she walked and the trail forward of her are straight.

Each straight line has a starting and an finish.

Her place to begin was one night time.

.

.

.

Its crimson.

Although her eyes must be white, every part is crimson.

Mother!

The little lady, regardless of being washed away by tears, stood up once more and knelt beside her mom.

Splat.

The ladies knees stained crimson together with her moms blood.

Are you okay?

Why, why is that this taking place? Blood, blood, mothers blood.

Sasha Asilia smiled faintly.

Sweetie.

Asilia gently wiped Sharons cheek together with her bloodied hand.

Mommy has to go a little bit far this time.

However youre damage? Dont go

Sharon. Watch out for the Bloodstone Cult.

Asilia couldnt carry herself to say extra.

If her daughter defies Richard, shell die quickly.

So she taught her to hate the Bloodstone Cult.

When she realizes Richard is a Bloodstone Cultist, then she should resist.

That was the very best she may do.

Thats the very best she may do.

Take heed to the Lord effectively.

Ah okay. Okay. Will you come again?

Asilia smiled weakly.

Sharon keep in mind our promise?

Yeah, promise?

To which quantity do you must depend for Mother to come back again?

Uh ah 10,000.

Okay. 10,000. Will you depend effectively?

Sure. Ailing depend correctly. Mother.

And so.

The snowfield thickened with blood.

.

.

.

Why do recollections from that misplaced second come again now?

Its a nightmare, the one second she will be able to see her mom.

Reminiscence fades, plunging into darkness once more.

It should be darkness.

The environment are noisy.

Sharon Pierce!

A voice Sharon didnt wish to hear reaches her ears.

Its Ians voice.

He who continuously hindered her.

He appeared to have come right here.

Be quiet. I dont wish to hear your voice.

Regardless that she thinks so, she retains listening to that voice. She doesnt know why. But it surely has all the time been like this.

Possibly.

Sure.

Maybe as a result of she feared deviating from the straight line she was strolling.

He stored making her look again, for no matter purpose.

Steadily, her imaginative and prescient returns.

Sharon stared blankly exterior.

Someones swordsmanship strikes vaguely into her sight.

Mother?

In Sharons reminiscence, her moms determine, every of her actions throughout coaching, unfolds earlier than her eyes.

Mother is perhaps struggling now, however sometime, shell bloom like a flower. Sharon, watch intently.

The actions of the sword that appear like flowers will bloom for certain.

Her mom was clear about that.

Nobody else may do these actions besides her mom.

She needs to open her eyes.

She needs to see that determine extra clearly.

Her blurry imaginative and prescient begins to clear up little by little.

Lastly, her mom

However whats caught in her sight isnt her mom.

Ian.

Ian. That man.

Why is he the one performing her moms swordsmanship?

It’s a trick of deception. Dont fall for it.

The voice of Grasp Pierce echoed.

Yeah, Grasp Pierce should be proper.

Mom stated the identical. Observe Grasp Pierce.

As Sharon tried to sink again into darkness, Ian grabbed her.

His actions seized her.

It was undoubtedly her moms swordsmanship that Sharon had been attempting to duplicate.

And so.

A snowflake gently descended earlier than Sharons eyes.

Vibrant.

Vibrant and pure white, piercing via the darkness.

Sharon opened her eyes.

Ian stood there, his complete physique soaked in blood, smiling brightly.

Mom?

Wasnt she every part to you? Your mom.

Thats proper.

His phrases have been proper.

The rationale Sharon Pierce may all the time stroll wanting forward was as a result of she had just one objective in her life.

Mom. Sasha Asilia.

Click on. Her physique moved.

Sharon instinctively took a step ahead.

That step was blocked by Richard.

Sharon Pierce.

His chilly voice stopped her.

Isnt your father calling you.

It was a voice Sharon had by no means been capable of insurgent in opposition to.

When you proceed like this, your wounds won’t ever heal.

However that was solely due to her moms phrases.

Now that she realized actuality, now that she knew the place she belonged, nothing entered her ears.

Sharons pupils fully misplaced their gentle.

Since she already knew the place to go, her sight didnt matter a lot.

Sharon simply moved ahead.

Thud.

A sound of one thing breaking.

As Sharon walked, she vomited blood.

Richards expression contorted.

It was the sound of the connection being severed.

Clank!

With a pointy sound.

Sharon left a protracted path of blood as she walked away.

The receding determine of Sharon.

Richard requested.

Why did you ship her away? Even should you needed me to cope with her, she would have listened.

You stated go, and shes going.

Ian chuckled.

Normally, in a scenario like this, youd say, Youre proper. Let me assist you to. However no, the youngsters all the time wanting straight forward. Thats no good.

Its unbelievable.

We should always have educated our daughter higher. Then I might need gotten some assist.

Hahaha!

Richard burst into laughter like a madman.

Really, there is perhaps one other option to steal somebody elses dantian. How did you handle to sweet-talk her like that?

Are you curious?

Sure.

Then Ailing let you know.

How?

Im going to make your dantian mine. Carry it on. Theres no different method now.

The corners of Ians mouth quirked up as soon as once more.

Ians smirk widened.

Oh. I requested for seven assaults.

Thats proper.

That was only a ploy to get Sharon out. Does that even matter now?

?

Your jail is already gone, abandoning simply the shell.

Richards face contorted.

Kwaahhh!

An enormous explosion enveloped the environment.

Snow poured from the sky.

A distant roar.

Iaaan!

Someones scream pierced via the snow.

Sharon, strolling dazedly, stopped in her tracks.

It was 10,000.

Ten thousand, her mom had absolutely stated to satisfy after ten thousand nights.

Instantly, Sharon realized.

She had counted as much as as we speak, ten thousand nights.

The starlight she had counted whereas craving just for her moms embrace.

If she may break via the snowflakes earlier than her, in half of that promise, she would meet her mom.

However.

Her ft wouldnt transfer.

Why.

Tears started to circulate from Sharons eyes.

Why cant I’m going.

Thud. Thud.

She struck her personal legs, hitting and hitting, however they wouldnt transfer.

The legs that had all the time walked upright, craving just for her mom, now refused to obey.

Even when she was abused by Herman, she by no means misplaced her route.

However now, so near her mom, Sharons legs stopped.

My moms there. Why cant I’m going

She needed to satisfy her mom first.

She needed to turn out to be trash as soon as extra.

She tried to push all her feelings apart and stroll ahead.

However she couldnt push them away. None of her impurities may very well be washed away.

For a human, that was not the best way.

Thuck, thwack thuck.

Sharons hand, hanging her legs, went limp.

Together with her head bowed, she murmured.

Mother.

Certainly it was a straight line.

Certainly it was a straight path towards her.

Sharon turned again.

Im sorry. Mother.

The sunshine returned to Sharons eyes that had misplaced it.

There have been nonetheless stars to depend earlier than she may meet her mom.

Following the footsteps in her thoughts, Sharon ran again.
