How to Save Humanity After Transmigrating into a Villainess Princess? Chapter 25 : Mother and Daughter
Although Elashia's request was sowhat abrupt, Candice didn't look surprised at all when she heard it.
Elashia and Alexandra had deep connections, and both were human rulers who knew about the coming Undead Calamity, so they would inevitably et.
"Well, didn't I say she would find today~"
A strange voice suddenly sounded in the room.
"Who's there!"
Elashia was startled.
Looking around, a tall woman appeared on the wall.
The woman wore a black and red military uniform, her smile revealing complete composure and confidence, her dark pink hair under the black military cap as vivid as red hair.
"Are you... Iron Empress Alexandra?"
Elashia certainly knew who this sadistic-looking woman was, and knew she was "Elashia's" biological mother, but she still had to pretend, after all, she couldn't be found out.
The Iron Empress smiled and replied: "Of course, my dear daughter."
Candice standing nearby looked at the Iron Empress with confusion.
Shouldn't this be concealed from Elashia?
What if Elashia couldn't accept this truth?
"What... did you call ?"
Elashia put all her effort into feigning surprise.
Then, a scene Elashia would never forget appeared.
The woman revealed a playful smile.
"My dear daughter, are you hiding sothing from your mother?"
What!
Why so sudden!
Elashia strived to maintain calmness in her voice.
"I don't understand... what exactly are you saying..."
The playfulness on the woman's face increased.
"But your reaction just now didn't seem like genuine surprise~"
Elashia now felt her heart suffocating as if firmly gripped by Alexandra's hand.
"I..."
Elashia opened her mouth but couldn't say anything.
Is this the Iron Empress's insight... can she detect such subtle abnormalities...
The silence continued for a long ti, until Elashia decided to speak.
Now she was certain that if she uttered even half a false word to this terrifying woman before her, she would be imdiately seen through.
But she couldn't remain silent, couldn't resist exchanging information with her.
Because Elashia, familiar with the storyline, knew very well that this seemingly frightening woman would be the strongest force against the Undead Calamity. She would be the only powerful ally Elashia could rely on in the future.
Moreover, the Iron Empress wasn't as ruthless as she appeared.
When Elashia chose the human route and the storyline developed to humanity's complete defeat, the Iron Empress, who could have survived by hiding in a treasure, chose to trick Elashia, who by then completely trusted her, into the treasure to survive, while she resolutely faced death herself.
That was the only route where Elashia ultimately survived.
She would never forget what the Iron Empress said to "Elashia" at the end—"I'm sorry for bringing you into this world."
And she would never forget the scenes of the Iron Empress and "Elashia" spending ti together in the final period, at least then the two truly relied on each other like mother and daughter.
For that kind-hearted Elashia, Alexandra was truly a gentle mother.
Ending her thoughts and recognizing she simply couldn't hide from her, Elashia reorganized her words and said: "Yes, Mother, I have concealed things from you."
The Iron Empress still smiled playfully.
"So?"
Elashia steadied her mind and continued:
"I will tell you everything I can tell you."
"Everything?"
"As long as it relates to countering the Undead Calamity, I promise not to conceal even the slightest detail from you."
The Iron Empress maintained her playful smile.
"What about things related to you?"
Elashia's small face flushed slightly, whether from embarrassnt or nervousness was unclear.
"That... is none of your concern..."
"What if I want to know?"
"That... will depend on the future."
The Iron Empress said in a sowhat teasing voice:
"Ah~ It's normal for a daughter who's grown up to have her own secrets~"
"Please don't do this!"
Elashia suddenly lowered her head and shouted.
In any case, even the "Elashia" who took the human route in the ga couldn't accept a mother who descended from the sky in such a short ti.
Let alone her, a modern person with both parents.
Although she knew the Iron Empress ant no harm, and actually harbored a kind of guilt similar to parents who abandoned their child toward her.
After all, if it weren't for the Iron Empress's sche, Elashia wouldn't have been born into this world and suffered so much.
But Elashia still couldn't accept a woman she had just t continuing to tease her like this repeatedly.
"I'm sorry... I know I ca into this world because of you, but... I really can't accept this right now..."
Seeing Elashia like this, a flash of pain appeared in Alexandra's eyes, quickly covered by a serious expression.
She was just testing before.
But she didn't expect her guess to be true.
Because Elashia's appearance wasn't in the ancient prophecy, she had guessed that Elashia might possess so ability to transcend this world.
Combined with Elashia's coup at this special ti, Alexandra speculated that Elashia might have a unique source of information.
And now Elashia's reaction confird her guess.
However, since Elashia promised to be completely forthcoming about the Undead Calamity, and she was confident Elashia wouldn't deceive her, there was indeed no need to probe further.
After all, everyone has their own secrets, don't they?
"Alright, then let's end the jokes here, and have a proper discussion about business."
