Chapter 416 - : Mother’s Emotions

"Why are you here?!" Fey's expressions darkened as his mount came to a sudden stop.

Not far from him, there was a powerful wind storm. In the eye of that storm, he could see a vague silhouette of a woman. Even though the figure wasn't clear, he could still recognise the woman.

"Are you going somewhere, my dear son?" A melodious voice came from within the storm, falling in Fey's ears like a thunderstorm.

Fey had never relied on his own strength, only focusing on getting stronger slaves. And one of his first few slaves was the woman in front of him.

It was the mother of the person that he had possessed, also being the corner Tower Master of the Wind Tower.

Although some of the family heads that he controlled had long surpassed the strength of the masters of towers that had previously been destroyed, their strength didn't belong to Fey.

Now that his slaves had been killed, Fey was back to square one, being much weaker. He had also lost quite a few of his treasures that could save his life.

Fey wasn't a fool to not understand the reality of the situation. If the woman wanted, she could kill him in the blink of an eye.

"Mother, please tell me you are not fooled by that man?! You are not going to hurt your own son for a stranger!" Fey exclaimed, still trying to play with the woman's emotions.

Even though he wasn't her son, it was still true that he was inside the body of her son. Even though he had done a lot of bad things to her, he was still supposed to be a son for her.

"I-i was temporarily controlled by a soul from another world. However, I have long been freed from his control. Despite that, the man said that he wants to kill me! I am so glad that I found you! Please run away with me or he will also hurt you!"

Fey stepped down from his mount and ran towards the woman like a child who had longed for his mother.

He was slightly scared inwardly but he still didn't let the fear show on his face. His face only showed a sense of longing for the woman.

For a moment, the Wind Tower Master's emotions fluctuate. She hesitated about believing his words. Even though Eren had said that her son had died the moment he was possessed, was it really true?

"Don't fall for his words. Until a few moments ago, he was still controlling many people. He just ran away after losing his slaves. Now he is trying to use you. If you give him a chance, he will not hesitate in controlling you."

The wind tower master was faltering when she heard Felona's words. She once again reminded her that the person in front of her was not her child.

"I know," the Wind Tower Master agreed with Felona. Despite that, she opened a passage through the storm which allowed Fey to approach her.

"Are you really my son?" she asked her son who stopped merely a meter away from her.

"Mother!" Fey had tears in his eyes. Without hesitation, he stepped forward and hugged the woman tightly. "I missed you so much. I was so scared when that foreign soul was controlling me. I am sorry! I am so sorry for letting him use you!"

The woman also dropped to her knees, still having Fey in her embrace.

Fey's eyes were filled with tears as he hugged her but the woman couldn't see the devilish smirk on his lips.

'So what if I lost other slaves? If I can take this slave back, I would have a much easier time escaping. Thank you for sending me this gift, my dear Transmigrator!'

Fey was certain that he had weakened his mother's mental defense by making her emotional towards the return of her son.

Subtly, he started using enslavement. A mark slowly started materializing on the shoulder of the woman.

"I am also sorry for not being able to protect you," the woman said weakly.

"It is not your fault, mother. It is all the fault of those otherwor-" Grinning ear to ear, Fey started replying. However, before he could even finish his sentence, he felt a sharp pain.

"Arghhh!"

Taken aback, he quickly tried to free himself from the woman's embrace, feeling a dagger that had been stabbed on his shoulder.

"I will make sure the person who killed you doesn't have a good end. My son, you can rest in the afterlife knowing that your mother had avenged you!"

"Arghhhh!" Fey screamed even louder as another dagger stabbed through his waist. freēnovelkiss.com

One after another, the sharp pain was rising from all over his body as multiple daggers were being stabbed in his body, making him experience pain like never before.

He kept trying to free himself but he wasn't strong enough. After a long time, he felt like he should have focused on strengthening himself instead of relying on others.

Even if he had controlled most of the Northern Continent at a time, he couldn't even free himself from a woman's embrace on his own.

"Don't faint yet. This is just the beginning." Felona wasn't idle either. Whenever Fey was about to pass out, she used her spirit magic to keep him awake so he could experience every bit of pain.

It was his reward for taking a child from her mother and enslaving her for so long.

....

"She won't kill him, will she?" Back in the Kiel Family's estate, Eren was starting to wonder about Fey's fate.

He had allowed the wind tower master to punish the young man, but he still needed him to be alive. Or at least he needed that man's heart to be intact so he could take his abilities.

"Isn't that why you sent Felona with her? She would not let him die." Yelen told Eren, who was sitting on the tall block of rubble which had become his new throne.

Most of the Kiel Family's servants had already run away. Even when the commotion died down, they didn't dare return to check.

It was only Ruby who could be seen returning, carrying a relieved smile as she saw Eren standing on the throne made from rubble.
