Oh no! After I Reincarnated, My Moms Became Son-cons! Book 16: Chapter 36

Son, what are you doing?

I jolted back to reality. Mom grabbed my hand the mont my finger was going to co into contact with the spring. I looked at Mom in a hazy state, whereas Mom looked at in a tense state. She nervously asked, Son, what did you co here for at this hour?

I I Why did I co here again?

I looked back at the spring, confused. I scrubbed my head, thinking, Yeah, why did I co here? I shouldve gone gone and done what again? Why did I co here? What happened? Why did I co to the spring and space out?

Mom nervously clasped my face and turned it to face her. She looked into my eyes and questioned, Son, what exactly happened? Why are you here? Why are you in a daze? What exactly happened? Son, can you recall what happened? Did you touch the water in the spring?

I I dont know i I dont think so? I myself cant rember why I ca here I think I think it was because I heard the spring call for ? I rember Thats all I can rember. Ive forgotten everything in between.

Mom shouted, Son, look into Mommys eyes! Did you touch the water or not? Yes or no?!

I rarely saw Mom so tense. Id say that she was excessively tense. Could I have sohow changed, I wondered. The feeling of not knowing was perplexing. I didnt feel that way because I didnt know what happened but because I was worried. I was worried because I went through sothing but had no idea what it was.

Mom gently caressed my face with her hand then quietly chanted sothing. I felt the mana in my body, particularly my brain, slowly circulate. I felt my body and mory alter, especially my mory. It was a strange feeling that felt as though my brain was undergoing data repair. I think sothing went awry, though.

I mused, What in the world happened? Why is Mom so tense? And what happened to my brain? Mom looks a lot more relaxed now, nonetheless.

Mom pulled away from the spring and warned, Son, you must rember to never co to the elven spring alone, understood? Mommy will seal it for you. If you dont plan to succeed the throne, you shouldnt co here. The spring has a conscious, understand? It seems the spring has plans for you; in other words, the forr god is interested in you. Son, you must rember that its very dangerous if it harbours an interest toward you. What gods need are never friends or elves. They want sacrifices. If Mommy isnt with you, never co near this place in the future!

Ah Okay

I was honestly shaken. I randomly appeared there. I randomly lost lots of mories. I almost touched the elven spring water, as well. Consequently, I figured it was better for to stay far away from the spring.

I stood up and looked at the spring. The gurgling spring water reflected my appearance. I blankly looked at my face and silently asked, Thats . That is, indeed, . Why do I feel strangely distant, in the sense that I havent seen this face in a long ti? Thats ?

I stared into the water, but Mom quickly pulled away. She dragged out without an explanation. Then, she aggressively slamd the door shut. Mom sighed. She then chanted a spell on the door before turning around to look at : Son, do not ever co near here, understood? Its dangerous.

I nodded, but Mom still looked concerned. A mont later, however, she revealed a consoled smile and then pulled along in tow.

It seems that I wont be able to find this door again once I leave. If I shift my gaze away, Ill never see it again, I thought.

I gazed at the flower garden outside the window and spaced out. When I went up to the window opposite the pillar, I suddenly saw my reflection in the window.

Disturbing thoughts started to gush into my head: This is my reflection and my face, but its totally different to the reflection I saw in the spring water. This is Troys face, while my reflection in the spring is my own face. I jumped into the water as an ordinary human to save a drowning child. I was just an ordinary human. As a matter of fact, nothing about stood out, and I didnt have anything I enjoyed. You couldnt be any more ordinary than I was. The life here never had anything to do with . If I didnt transmigrate here after my death, I never wouldve appeared here. Despite having appeared here, this still isnt . Im rely borrowing Troys body. Im only living on in Troys body and use his body to gain everything I have.

I had forgotten about that. I felt that I couldnt detect our difference, but why? Why? I had already forgotten about it. I could no longer detect this difference; I felt I had completely acclimatised into this place and no longer felt that I didnt belong. In addition, Nier and Lucia didnt fall for Troy, because he was Troy. They fell in love with Troy owing to everything that transpired, which is why I didnt feel any guilt. Why, though, has it co back to the forefront of my mind?

Is sothing the matter, Son? Mom seed to think there was sothing bizarre about . She looked outside the window then softly laughed. She touched my head: Lucia may be pretty and gentle, but Mommy will get jealous if youre always looking at Lucia no matter the occasion.

I returned to reality. I shifted my gaze away from my reflection and saw Lucia standing in the flower garden. Lucia was crouched down next to the flower garden with Vera in her arms. Vera looked at the flowers in front of her. She desperately reached out with her tiny hand to pluck a flower. Lucia kissed her daughter on the cheek.

Lucia appeared radiant captivating underneath the sunlight. She wore a warm and gentle smile an angel would have. I looked at her and Vera. A reassured smile crept up onto my face. Mom rubbed my head. Her laughter contained a hint of sadness: Co to think of it I should be the one holding Vera, right? Mommy once held you the sa way, too
