“Since that ti, my life had always revolved around Allen. If you took him away from , I will certainly fight you to the death!” Layla glared at Aemie.
For her, Allen was the most important person.
She endured everything for him, she put every ounce of her happiness and love on him. She was the one who raised him, she gave everything she has to him. It can even be said that her life was all concentrated on Allen and all this ti she felt that she was born in this world just to protect him.
He was her only happiness.
She didn’t know what kind of life would she have without him. Such a future even never crossed her mind.
Overwheld by a storm of emotion, Aemie was struck dumb.
After a short mont, she spoke, “… I won’t…”
Aemie felt her daughter’s hostility and even Mia’s eyes were boring holes at her. She can’t help but showed a wry smile. How co she had beco the villain all of a sudden?
“Your father disappeared…” She sighed and then smiled bitterly.
“What?!” Layla’s eyes widened in shock. That man?
Although Layla hated that family, especially her stoic and cold father and always believed that she and Allen had already no connection whatsoever to them, still the mont she had heard about it, sothing can’t help but stir inside of her.
Was this because of blood…? She wondered.
“What happened?”
“After all this happened, the convoy protecting him was attacked by monsters and since then he disappeared. Nowhere to be found.” Aemie answered.
“The company got destroyed though we still have a bit of wealth and power, causing us to slowly rise up. Although our lost was extrely huge, still, it doesn’t an that it’s all bad. With the disappearance of your father and the death of so important elders, I have managed to usurp the head’s position with my own effort. Even your father’s family would never say anything about now… that is why you can return now to the family… even though I couldn’t do anything before but now it’s different…” Aemie stared at her daughter, extrely hopeful.
She wanted for her family to be complete again. Allen and Layla, she felt that she had owed them so many things and she wanted to compensate for the lost ti.
For her, she had only realized how important they are after they disappeared. That painful feeling, that longing…
It was always eating inside her. As if sothing was gnawing every bones and flesh she had inside her body. It was extrely painful!
“As if I will listen to you!” But Layla glared at her. “We have better lives now… I managed to support Allen with only myself, we will never return to that house again! Besides, Allen doesn’t rember anything… it is better if he didn’t.”
“Indeed, from what I can tell, you made a good job of raising him.” Aemie flashed a sorrowful expression. “But, I’m still Cris’ mother, you can’t take that away from …”
“… …”
“Even if you are my daughter, I won’t allow that!” Aemie’s eyes flashed angrily.
“I know I had many mistakes and misgivings in the past but still, please let compensate for that! Let rectify my wrongs… I want to beco a good mother for him, at least give that right…” She burst from the intense pain and tears started falling from her eyes. The feelings she had bottled up all these ti bursts free.
“… …” Layla frowned but she didn’t say anything. She cast her gaze down.
A flash of pain and sorrow cross Aemie’s eyes still she endured and turned into Mia. “How is Cris, is he doing fine?”
“He’s safe… sohow…”
Mia’s vague words caused Aemie to frown. “What do you an? Did sothing happen to my son?” She beca agitated.
You could be reading stolen content. Head to for the genuine story.
She finally found him! She can’t lose him again!!
Mia shook her head. “Just like what I said, he’s safe… However, sothing is happening to him right now. You can say… a transformation…”
“What transformation?!”
Layla’s body trembled. She had heard about what happened.
“We don’t know yet… I had already mobilized all of my forces to find him as soon as possible. But we still haven’t found anything…” Mia sighed. She had already sent most of her people to the China sea where Allen’s signal was last found.
“What do you an you didn’t find anything!! Just what the hell happened to my son!!?” Aemie yelled out in anger.
“Please calm down, Mrs. Villaflores, we are also worrying about him but we can’t do anything!” Mia frowned. “The world beca even larger and the geography had changed… looking for soone had beco even more difficult than looking for a needle in a haystack. However, we’re still doing everything we can to find him! We are also extrely anxious about what was happening to him at this very mont, so please, calm yourself!”
Mia was also enduring it. She was worried about what is happening to him right now… every second felt like it was a year. But still, she steeled herself.
She can’t go crazy right now; especially that dumb bastard had finally shown himself to the world. Mia couldn’t help but clicked her tongue in displeasure but still, a bit of pride surge inside of her.
Mia’s outburst cald Aemie and she slowly returned to her seat.
“Although we really don’t know what is happening to that idiot, there is only one thing we know for sure… and that he’s safe and sound.”
If Alkrasha didn’t lie to them then that would be the case… The only problem is that what will happen to Allen when he beca a fallen… that is what was worrying her right now.
Allen’s state… I guess the world domination can’t be avoided… Mia sighed helplessly.
“How do you know that he’s safe?”
Mia pulled her phone and put it on the table. She then slides it towards Aemie. “Allen’s strong… right now, there’s basically no opponent for him left.”
Aemie took the phone and couldn’t help but be flabbergasted. It was a very familiar video. She had seen it before… it was a sensational video.
Thunder Emperor… they called him.
Dubbed as the strongest Superhuman by many people.
But… no way, her son was that youth?!
The mont she saw Allen’s face reflected on the video, although it was a bit blurry, Aemie couldn’t help but gasp in surprise and a violent twinge shot through her heart.
She straightened her body that almost lost balance, and finally squeezed out a feeble voice, her lips trembling. “My, my son, Cris is the Thunder Emperor?!”
“Thunder Emperor… ah yeah, he was called that now, right?” Mia muttered as she sipped her tea. “He is indeed Allen, Cris whatever… However, as soon as he left China, he had gone missing…”
“What do you an by he’s gone missing!?”
As soon as she heard those words, Aemie tossed everything aside, feeling a certain emotion well up inside her. Specifically, it was a sudden fury.
Her reflexive retort only added fuel to the fire.
“We don’t know...!”
Gritting her pearly-white teeth, Mia yelled. Aemie’s frantic attitude also agitated her.
Staring directly at Mia, Aemie was just about to speak but the breath she had inhaled felt difficult to vocalize. Because within Mia’s eyes, she saw an emotion that could not be clearer.
Yearning, Pain, Worry, Anxiety – because of all these strong feelings, it would be stupid for her if she didn’t understand what relationship does Mia had with her son.
Fuu—sighing deeply, Aemie felt speechless.
An indescribable awkwardness hung in the air.
That was when soone opened the door.
“Why don’t we calm down first… worrying about that boy wouldn’t help anything… Besides, I’m certain that he is fine and already on his way here…”
A seemingly cheerful tone, yet a distinctively clear female voice rang out as soon as the door opened.
What entered through the door was a rather tall woman with Asian features wearing an elegant dress. Gazing at her graceful features, Mia let out a weak voice.
“Mom,”
“Ciao~”
Without a doubt, it was her mother. Xia Yi Bianchi.
“Here I bought so cakes,” Xia Yi Bianchi whose black hair was tied in a long ponytail, smiled amiably.
The three won inside the room hastily adjusted their expressions and nodded.

“Please tell all about my son,” Aemie suddenly asked while bowing her head.
Mia doesn’t really care, after all, no matter what she did before; she was still, after all, Allen’s biological mother. That would never change.
She was still the beautiful daughter-in-law in front of her mother-in-law.
As for Layla, she wore a complicated expression but she didn’t say anything. Her hatred towards her real family had sowhat lessened now that she had seen her mother after a very long ti.
They did say, foods aren’t the only thing that will spoil with ti. Even hate and grudge will vanish after a very long ti…
Besides, no matter what happens Blood is thicker than Water…
Layla didn’t say anything as if ignoring her mother.
Aemie looked at her helplessly.
“I heard he was a good boy,” The one who answered was Xia Yi. “Strong, kind, gentle and very responsible.”
Hearing this, Aemie’s lips trembled with a deep longing. “Re, really?”
At Aemie’s question, Mia montarily forgot the animosity between them, and started speaking with a smile:
“Allen the [ Black Demon King ], the [ Ruthless Overlord ], or the [ Tyrant ] he was called with many nas… few made from fear of him while most was made due to his power.”
“... Hoh...” Aemie started to show a smile. “It seems like my son is having a blast…”
Those nas are certainly terrifying but her pride as a mother made her biased.
“Yeah, he did,” Mia responded.
“Truthfully, Allen and I ca from the future.”
“!!?” Aemie’s eyes widened in shock because of the sudden revelation.
