Chapter 370 Remaining Survivors Of The Beast Race
Despite Yuki's body only being half of the height of Aika, she easily carries her in her arms. Beside her, Yumie and Katsumi had slight smiles on their face as they lead Yuki back to the cave where they went to hiding. As they were having their small journeys and having small talk along the way, but as they were getting closer, Yuki remembered something. The way that they were taking is going to lead them to the place where she first opened her eyes, at this moment she knew that they were going back to the cave that she and Yumie lived in. This brings memories back to her, she could clearly remember it like it was just yesterday.
"So you made our past home your shelter now?" Yuki chuckled as she looks at Yumie's way causing her to blush in embarrassment. It was the same for Katsumi as she also remembers this place as this was the place where she spent most of her time when she was just an egg. Even if she was just an Egg she has consciousness and vision to know where she was, so that Cave has a special place in her heart and so was Yumie. For Yumi, it was the very first place where she felt the warmth of someone other than her biological Mother.
"Yeah… Because of the relentless attacks of all the Race into the Beast Race, we had no choice but to evacuate to the Moon Rock Forest. It seems that Mother already knows the situation, so I'm not going to explain it further. But what I want to tell you is the current state of the Beast Race, but I think this person is much better to tell you than me." Yumie said as they walked inside the Cave, Yuki then saw about dozen people who were very familiar to her.
But when she took another step, she was met with two women who both pointed their weapons at her neck.
"Who are you, and why are you holding Aika?" A woman with golden hair, green eyes, and a white dress with a Golden Tail behind her. Meanwhile, the other woman looks exactly like the other woman with the same colored hair, but her eyes were blue. But what makes them different is that the green-eyed woman seems younger than the blue-eyed woman.
Yuki again was not shocked when these two women didn't recognize her, she merely sighed and waited for her daughter to act up. The two didn't disappoint Yuki as they almost shouted at the two women in anger after they saw their Mother being threatened, but they cannot blame her as their situation was very dire and they can't trust anybody that easily now, especially after being betrayed by all of the Races who pledge their loyalty to them after Yuki disappeared.
"Stop it! Do you not recognize her? She is our Mother, Yuki! She only got younger, but she is still our Mother!" Yumie said as she asked for the two women to drop their weapons. But when those words left Yumie's mouth, everyone inside the Cave was shocked. All of them then set their eyes on Yuki, tears suddenly began to well up in the two women's eyes as their dropped to their knees and knelt on the ground.
"So, you're finally back… Looks like our prayers have finally been answered." A man suddenly appeared in front of Yuki and when Yuki looks up she saw a man who has grey hair beginning to grow on his head. She wed when she saw the man, it was Mirel Dagart. The once handsome looks of Mirel have been replaced with an old man, he aged a lot, but it was not because of time, it was due to the stress and tiredness that has built up inside of him that he cannot release.
"You… I don't remember you looking this old." Yuki frowned. Even though she didn't think of Mirel highly, she still cared for him a little because of the small friendship that they have built over the months that they have been together. So seeing him like this, she felt an emotion that she doesn't know. It was new for her, sadness for a friend that she has never felt for a few years when she was still on Earth.
"I know, but you… You seem to only get younger. But I must say, you still look beautiful even with your childlike body." Mirel said with a gentle gaze at Yuki. On her right was Lian who still couldn't believe that the person in front of her was the real Yuki. Her reaction was the same as everyone, shock, and happiness that she was finally back.
"You're disgusting. Are you a pedophile?" Yuki said in irritation, but everyone knew that she didn't mean what she said. But her words also caused an uproar in everyone's heart, it seems that she was Yuki. As she still has her venomous mouth. Lian silently wipes the tears from her eyes and helped the two sisters get up who were both kneeling on the ground with overflowing happiness inside of them.
"I almost didn't recognize you Aria, and I'm assuming you're Sayaka. You changed, I mean by a lot." Yuki looked at Aria and commented, on what she remembered about Aria as a strong woman who doesn't show much emotion and was cold to everyone except to those who were close to her. But now she was crying like a little girl when she saw her. She also saw some other familiar faces like Rory who has a smile on her, but it was not just her who she remembered. There were also Asuka, Miku, Ike, and Aoi who she hasn't seen since the War that happened between her and the Royal Destruction.
Though she only ignored it and continued her way inside where she found a place to sit, once she sat down, the Cave was enveloped in utter silence until she finally spoke again to Mirel.
"Care to update me on what happened after all the Race attacked the Beast Race?" Yuki asked as she began to caress Aika's head, as for the other two. They didn't want to be separated from Yuki and they placed their head on their Mother's shoulder to feel the warmth, though she was feeling uncomfortable because three grown women were surrounding her she didn't say anything and in response, she also patted their heads slowly with full of love.
"There are a lot of things that you need to know. But I will start with the current situation of the Beast Race…" Mirel took a deep breath before he continued, but Yuki could see the pain in his eyes as he began to explain what happened.
"After all of those bastards attacked. Only 43% of the Beast population survived. They attacked every part of the Beast Kingdom to ensure that all of us would die, but that didn't happen because they didn't have the full power to kill all of us in one War. Now the remaining 43% are currently living in the Moon Rock Forest. I know you are going to ask how they got so strong, but to be honest, we also don't know at first. But some rumors said the current King of the Huma Race managed to get a crystal from one of the Gods that is residing in our Heaven which boosted their strength by a lot. Because of that, we have been overthrown and we now don't have the power to control the Mystic Dragon Heaven because of it." Just from Mirel's situation caused Yuki to nearly go out and kill the current King, but she decided to hold it for now.
"I see… I'm sorry that all of this happened. But now that I am here, you don't need to worry. I will help all of you to get revenge on all of them." Yuki said in a chilling voice, but they didn't feel any feeling towards it. Instead, they felt hopeful. She then snapped her fingers and made an Ice Soldier that went out of the cave to grab the Human King who was now nothing but a cripple and when everyone saw him they were shocked. They didn't expect it to be this fast.
"Get your hands off me!" Kato Ryu yelled in a voice full of anger with a hint of fear in them as he know his current situation. He wants to live of course, but he was as stupid as his father who let his pride get over his head.
"If you don't shut up, I will fucking shove your mouth with this rock," Yuki warned. She was pissed when she heard how loud Kato was, she was afraid that the three sisters who had just fallen asleep would be woken up by all of the noise that he is making. But Kato acted as if he didn't hear anything and continued to shout. It was then Aika finally woke up she snapped.
"Mommy?" Aika looks into Yuki's eyes with clear and pure eyes that seem to haven't been affected by all of the things that have been happening. She then gave her a loving smile before whispering something in her ear.
"Don't worry, I will just do something. You can sleep more." Yuki said as she gently stood up, but she didn't forget to place all three of them gently in a bed that she made out of Ice.
"Don't say I didn't warn you~" Yuki grabbed a handful of small rocks as she then kicked Kato in the stomach causing him to open his mouth, but before a scream could come out. His mouth was full of small rocks.
"Make him forcibly eat all of it," Yuki ordered the Ice Knight as it then begins to do its job by grabbing Kato's jaw and making him chew forcibly. Now that he was only an ordinary human, the grinding of the rocks in his mouth was a painful experience, especially because some rocks have sharp edges in them that made his mouth bleed. Blood soon oozes out of his mouth and he begins to whimper in pain and fear, but he was only ignored by Yuki.
