Chapter 45: Revealing secrets
Evan said, opening his eyes due to the quarrel that his mother was about to start, well not literally...
But Seraphina again tried to play a joke on them, and said while snorting,
"You are already beginning to show favoritism, how will you treat me in the future? And don't forget I am your first woman."
Evan simply chuckled and responded to her while grabbing both of their asses,
"I remember it very well, Mother. You both are mine, so it won't matter if you fight sometimes and if you want to tease her mother, but don't say things like I am showing favoritism, I love you both equally."
Celestina who was watching all this couldn't understand what was happening at all, this relationship they were in right now was taboo outside, if anyone got wind of it, then their whole family would be a topic of mockery, so she asked,
"Why are you both talking as if it's normal? You are mother and son, besides you are my brother's wife, how can you do this with your own son?!"
She was a bit angry as well right now. If it was any other time, she wouldn't have opened her mouth in front of her sister-in-law at all, but now that she feels safe in Evan's embrace, she was brave enough to ask her something.
But contrary to what she was thinking, Seraphina's response was calm,
"Your brother, huh? I think it's time that both of you know the truth."
Celestina was confused but Evan knew exactly what she was about to tell them, so he listened intently, and Seraphina continued,
"You might not know little girl, but we aren't from this planet and not even from this universe. These things might not be a shock for you now as you have seen the tower and the different creatures inside it. You might have guessed there are many other species beside you, and that's true."
Then as if remembering the past, she said feeling a little nostalgic,
"I am a demon, a succubus to be exact, but not the ordinary ones who go to collect vitality from any man they see. I am from the royal bloodline, my mother is the succubus queen, one of the demon kings of the demon realm. She is still one of the strongest demons in the demon realm, but one day she lost a battle against the strongest demon king of the demon realm, he is currently my father, but I don't have any feelings for him at all, I won't care even if he dies."
There was an unconcealed hatred for him in her eyes, Evan felt her anger and gritted his teeth, he didn't know who this person was but if he made his mother angry, then he would die.
[Quest: Kill the demon king of pride and take his everything.
Reward: Fragment of pride, +1000 to all stats, the title of a demon god, an authority of your desire.
Penalty: Death and devoured by unknown]
Responding to his wish, the system gave him a quest but he ignored it right now.
Seraphina again continued,
"He captured my mother, who was considered the most beautiful and powerful woman in the entire demon realm, even those angels who loathe us wouldn't deny the praise of her beauty, but she was captured by him. Sealing all her powers, he made her give birth to me, when I was born the entire demon realm trembled with my presence, I was the child of the two most powerful beings in the demon realm and my potential surpassed everyone, even the heaven where the angels reside was trembling seeing my potential.
"But because I was the child of the strongest demon king, nobody dared to do anything against me, this is the only thing I am thankful for him. I was treated like a queen who would surpass every existence and become someone like our ancestor, who was hailed as the strongest god that anyone has ever seen, though nobody knows if he died or if he is even alive. That's why the gods of heaven didn't attack me fearing our god, who might still be alive. I was then raised like the queen, every day I was cultivating with the purest form of demonic energy, and my talent shocked everyone. With just a day of cultivation, I reached the spirit-severing realm, which takes many centuries to reach, but all of my happiness didn't last forever...
"Suddenly one day, the tower just like the one here appeared in the demon realm, it appeared in the angelic realm as well. At first, the ordinary demons tried to go inside it, and when everyone felt it was safe, the demon kings took charge, and they cleared every floor with a breeze, and when they finished the 50th floor, they were shocked by the reward...
"It was the fragment of our god, this only meant one thing our demon god was dead, but only the demon kings who went inside the tower knew this, and decided to make a new god using that fragment, and I, who was born with the greatest potential was selected for this...
"They used the fragment and fused me with it making me give birth to off springs, it wasn't the natural process but using the power of fragment to give birth to another living creature, and the first offspring I gave birth to was your elder sister Nova, whose potential shocked others as it wasn't like mine but wasn't worse either, but she was considered defective as she wasn't able to surpass me...
"She was considered a failed product and I was made to go through the same process again...
