Oh no! After I Reincarnated, My Moms Became Son-cons!

“Send Princess Liu Yue back! Send Princess Liu Yue back!!” commanded Ying as she watched the guards drag Liu Yue back.

Daisy emotionlessly diagonally slashed an opponent then kicked him away before wiping the blood off her face. She found battle amusing. At first, one wouldn’t dare to kill; however, once one killed their first target due to their risky predicament and anger, the sense of glory and the wild instinct of a human being calmed them, and joy kicked in.

Soon enough, Daisy killed a second and a third person. Daisy never lacked the skills to commit murder. Under Elizabeth and Nier’s tutelage, she already reached an exemplary level with her swordplay. The hurdle was her peaceful life that kept her ruthlessness from surfacing. Daisy wouldn’t allow anyone to hurt her sister, which was why she killed for the first time.

Daisy drove her sword through someone’s chest for the first time. She watched him taking his final breaths and listened to his cry of despair. She smelt the blood that splattered on her. She had an urge to cry when she blood that sprayed. Nevertheless, the fear and excitement of successfully cutting down her prey overwhelmed her and motivated her to mow down her next target.

Daisy was the descendant of Nier, the most outstanding Valkyrie. The violent nature of Valkyries had always dwelled deep within her soul. She perceived her enemies to be lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

While the guards protected her, Liu Yue groaned. They had finished with emergency treatment, but the pain still radiated through her body. Both of her legs were wounded. She couldn’t even sit without feeling excruciating pain, let alone stand.

Nona stayed next to Liu Yue and quietly chanted a magic spell, but she was a fairly weak elf. Her mana was far inferior to her sister’s – not to mention the city seemingly lacked any traces of mana for some reason unbeknownst to her. Hence, Nona had to resort to using her sparse mana reserves to heal her sister. Nona looked as white as a sheet. With sobs of despair, she cried, “I can’t… I can’t… This is all I can do… It’s all… I’m sorry… I’m sorry… Liu Yue. Liu Yue… I’m sorry… I want to save you. I want to save you… Sorry…”

Nona did her best, but she was an ordinary elf at the end of the day. Lucia never used healing magic as she was aware she lacked the mana required for it. Liu Yue’s wound shrunk minutely.  All Nona managed to do was reduce the blood loss.

Liu Yue struggled to raise her head. She gently shook her head. She revealed a barely noticeable smile and weakly said, “I’m okay, I’m okay… I… I’m okay…”

Ying ordered, “Let’s retreat for now. The more men come, the slimmer our chances of getting away. We’re pulling out.”

The battle entered a worrisome stage, which was very disadvantageous for the group that was outnumbered to begin with. Their original plan was to charge straight to the palace, but Liu Yue’s injury delayed it, so they had to take her back to the ship first. Then, they could consider the possibility of breaching the palace.

The guards were skilled, but they struggled against the enormous enemy numbers, consequently suffering a considerable number of losses themselves.

Daisy still had a lingering urge to continue. As the fight raged on, Daisy began to discover her purpose in life. It was as if she lived until then for that moment. She never felt so excited before. Her entire body quivered with infinite excitement. Her sword had never felt so light before.

“How many have I cut down? Five? Seven? I’ve lost count. Killing is magnificent. This must be my purpose in life. Is this the life Mom experienced? Is this the life Grandmother Elizabeth experienced? This sort of life isn’t half bad; it’s addicting,” thought Daisy.

Daisy retreated. Nona carried her sister on her back and ran as fast as her legs could take her. The question was who was going to bring up the rear. They didn’t have many guards with them. They were all elites, each one being selected from a pool of one hundred. Losing too many of them would be a pity. Plus, if they lost all of their men there, how were they going to rescue Vera?

Suddenly, they heard horse hooves from behind. Ying turned her head around. She picked up a sword that happened to be within reach and plunged it into the horse from afar. Ying stomped on the rider’s chest to break his fall and raised her sword.

“It’s me! It’s me! I heard you were in danger, so I immediately rushed here! I came to help you! I came to help you!”

The person below foot had a familiar voice. It took Daisy a moment to react: “It’s you?!”

Ying moved her foot and saw the youngster, Larya. She didn’t care how he arrived. She pulled him up and then threw him to the front: “You hold the frontlines. Liu Yue has been wounded. We need to retreat to treat her wounds. Just hold the line until we get away then come meet up with us on the ship.”

The youngster dawdled for a short moment to blankly look at Liu Yue, who had her eyes shut. He started to panic: “Liu Yue got hurt…? Liu Yue, she…”

Liu Yue’s ears and tail powerlessly hung down. Her beautiful red fur was stained with red blood. Liu Yue struggled to open her eyes. She bitterly looked at the youngster. With a helpless smile, she said, “I’m fine. I’m all right…”

The youngster’s pupils dilated. He shakily walked over to Liu Yue. Nona took a step back to prevent him from getting closer to Liu Yue. He stopped in his tracks and had one last look at her. He then turned back to look at the opposition. Voice solemn, he declared, “In that case, leave this place to me. Miss Ying, you take Liu Yue away.”

“What are you trying to do?!!”

Liu Yue knew what the youngster implied. There was only one possible outcome if one man was to face off against all the guards of an entire city. To add, because they started the fight, the enemy wouldn’t show mercy. There was no chance of the youngster regrouping with them on the ship. He didn’t have the strength to stop a group alone. Only her father would have that sort of strength.contemporary romance

“Miss Liu Yue, I have always needed to say this to you. Sorry. I have hurt you too many times, and I have never protected you properly. But this time, I hope you will let me fulfil the duty of a guard. If it’s possible, I hope to continue being your bodyguard! Let us meet again on board!! Thank you… for remembering my name…”
