Chapter 398: Only in this Path
Prisania's POV
"What a good girl you are, Prisania?"
I heard that sound and looked at the person.... I knew she was my mother.
"Why are you not crying?" She asked me, her voice filled with concern.
But all I could do was stare at her face, which bore only sadness and worries.
I wasn't sure why, but from the moment I was born, I was able to understand what was happening around me, and these memories were as clear as day to me.
"See, this is your father..." My mother said softly as she held a small picture before me, her voice tinged with sadness.
I wasn't sure why she was showing it to me. Days passed since I was born, and my mother's body seemed to deteriorate with each passing moment.
"I-I am sorry, my dear daughter. Please... forgive me for leaving you early"
Those were the last words I heard from my mother.
"So, she is my daughter?" A hoarse voice entered my ears, and that's when I saw a handsome man standing before me, his eyes reflecting a mix of surprise and tenderness.
"You look cute, baby," he remarked before taking me into his arms, his voice holding a hint of warmth.
Staring at his face, I knew he was the man my mother showed in the picture... that was my father.
Then he looked at my mother's lifeless body on the couch, which had been lying there for a day after she died.
"Hmm... I guess her Vampire body couldn't handle the Hybrid... You are really strong," he said, praising me before, with a flick of his hand, he set our entire small house ablaze, along with her dead body.
Even in the face of fire, I didn't shed a single tear, my emotions locked away in a place I couldn't yet understand.
Soon, he took me somewhere unknown.
"You've got her?" A person in a hooded cloak asked my father in a commanding tone, his presence exuding authority.
I wasn't sure if they should be telling all this to a child who couldn't even speak yet.
But I knew my life was going to be hell once I grew up. However, one night when I woke up, I found myself no longer in those confined spaces.
"Hello, Missy~" A gentle voice echoed in my ears.
Opening my eyes, I saw a hooded figure holding my arms as we flew through the sky.
I didn't understand what was happening, but I felt a sense of relief escaping from the hellish situation.
"Oh My~ It's too soon to sigh in relief" The figure muttered.
"Waahhh?" I asked in my baby voice.
"Hehehe... You are so cute, just like my daughter," the hooded figure mumbled affectionately, pinching my cheeks softly.
"sssshhhh"
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew against the hood, That's when I caught a glimpse of a hair.... A striking shiny slivery hair beneath the hood.
She must be gorgeous, I thought.
"See, this is your new temporary home," the figure said as they showed me to a large house.
Then, another woman emerged from the house, scrutinizing me from head to toe, even checking me in the nude, before declaring, "She would be worth 5 Gold Coins. And since she is a Vampire, she would be a valuable asset for my Master."
The hooded figure nodded in agreement, then turned to me with a soft whisper, "I am sorry, girl, but this is necessary. I cannot... No, none of us can predict the future and what kind of changes will occur, but I am paving a path that holds the promise of a better future for us all.... That's all!"
I couldn't fully grasp her words, but I could sense the weight behind them.
"I am sure you might have only sadness and nightmares along this path, but this is the only path that holds a small amount of nightmares compared to other paths that offer no light in the end," she said with a gloomy tone, her words echoing in my mind.
Despite my inability to comprehend her message fully, her next words brought a sense of realization.... something I had been trying to avoid.
"Please don't break very soon. I tied your fate with him, thus you will meet him only on this path! So hang on a little longer... Ms. Reincarnator, and also ~make sure to repay this debt," the hooded figure said before disappearing into the night.
