Chapter 334: Chapter 334 It Was Never Human to Begin With Chapter 334: Chapter 334 It Was Never Human to Begin With When Alia Spring found out that Ms. Tucker was her real mother, there truly were so misgivings in her heart.
That’s often how people are.
They can easily be moved by a stranger’s kind gesture, but when it cos to family mbers, they take it for granted and even resent that the other person doesn’t do enough.
If she was Ms. Tucker’s daughter, then why didn’t she grow up carefree like Elizabeth Tucker?
Was it because she had been abandoned that she suffered so much in the first twenty years of her life?
But such thoughts were fleeting.
If her real mother were soone else, she might have resented them without any hesitation.
But that person is Ms. Tucker, and she couldn’t bring herself to hate her.
Ms. Tucker was the only redemption in her bleak and hopeless past.
Because she knew how good of a person Ms. Tucker was, she couldn’t believe that Ms. Tucker would abandon her own daughter when she could do so much for a strange girl from a village.
Rather than being abandoned, Alia Spring was more inclined to believe she had been kidnapped.
If she really was a child who had been kidnapped, then the Rat Demon had made a mistake in what it said earlier.
“The pain of my first twenty years wasn’t because of her, but because of the person who took away from my mother.”
Because she clearly realized this, Alia didn’t hate her; instead, she felt fortunate.
Fortunate that her biological mother turned out to be such a good person.
Fortunate that she… chose to save her.
Hearing Alia speak about the Rat Demon’s malicious instigation and her own true feelings, Elizabeth Tucker’s tears fell once again, and she couldn’t help but tightly embrace her daughter’s shoulders, sharing the sa painful yet grateful emotions.
And she asked her,
“You knew the truth, why didn’t you tell ? … If you don’t resent , why didn’t you co and clarify?”
If it weren’t for the program’s Wizard pointing it out today, she wouldn’t even know she had another daughter.
How pitiful must have Alia been all these years, staying by her side as her student?
Upon hearing Elizabeth Tucker’s voice filled with sorrow, Alia lowered her head, biting her lip, but she didn’t speak further.
Seeing this, Nathan White couldn’t help but ask in a low voice, “Is it because… it forbade you from speaking?”
Alia, who was still agonizing over whether to speak up or not, looked up sharply at Nathan White upon hearing this, her expression clearly asking, how did you know?
The guest mbers of the program crew didn’t expect Nathan White to be right, but the underlying reason, they didn’t quite understand.
“Why wouldn’t it let you speak?”
As Amber Livingston spoke, as if she had realized sothing, she asked, “Is there so kind of taboo involved here?”
She heard that when mystical creatures help people, there are always so secrets and taboos, like you can’t casually reveal the ways of fate or sothing like that?
This was actually sothing Alia did not understand either. At the ti, when she heard her own statent of not resenting her mother, the Rat Demon had clearly been angry.
But it quickly cald down, staring intently at her, and then it made the demand not to recognize her mother on her own initiative, not even allowing hints.
It said sinisterly,
“Once you intend to tell the truth, I will make your mother ill again, and then she’ll still die, and your thirty years of life can’t be taken back, kaka… ”
Alia didn’t know why the other party made such a request, but she didn’t dare to gamble.
Even if she didn’t recognize her mother, she could still stay by her side as a student, enjoying the care and concern her mother had for her.
Even… when she heard Elizabeth Tucker mockingly say that her mother treated her like a daughter, there was a small sense of joy in her heart.
Elizabeth Tucker: ???
After listening to the whole truth in the live broadcast, many viewers were dumbfounded.
Who could have imagined such a twisted and bizarre secret behind all this?
[Rat Demon, you’re not human ahhhh! Why do you have to tornt them like this?!]
[Like I said, it’s a Rat Demon, so of course it’s not human.]
[Wuwuwu, it’s too cruel, Alia Spring and Teacher Tucker are so pitiful.]
[If this were between a man and a woman, it would definitely be a lodramatic tragic love story. Just imagine, the male and female leads, ant to find bliss in love, forced to conceal their feelings due to the threat of a Mystical Creature, can only interact under the guise of teacher and student…]
[The imagery is already coming together for the person above.]
[Why does it have to be deeply touching only if it’s a tortured love story??? The bond between mother and daughter is far more moving than any lodramatic tragic love story, okay??!]
[So what taboo is at the heart of this? Since the Rat Demon wants to repay them, why doesn’t it repay them more thoroughly???]
The live-streaming audience was dying of curiosity, instinctively turning their eyes to Scarlett Jennings and Nathan White on the other side of the cara.
Everyone instinctively felt these two could provide the correct answer.
As if sensing everyone’s desire for a resolution, Scarlett Jennings finally began to speak slowly, sharing her own speculation,
“When humans and Demon Ghosts strike a certain agreent, a contract force is automatically generated. Your promise not to recognize each other proactively is tantamount to forming a contract.
If you breach this contract, it can follow the law of cause and effect to take anything it wants from you, including your appearance, health, wisdom, or even… your life.”
Upon hearing this, Alia Tucker stiffened abruptly, and Elizabeth Tucker instinctively hugged her tighter.
But then Scarlett Jennings’ clear eyes shifted from Alia Tucker’s face and she ominously added,
“However, I see that the contract force on you is not strong, indicating that it doesn’t intend to take your life. Combining this with its previous deliberate concealnt of your identity and the act of provoking you after extracting thirty years of your lifespan, I guess, the reason it made such a request… “p>
Scarlett Jennings paused here, turning to look at Nathan White, who was eagerly waiting yet hesitating to speak, and suddenly tossed the subject to him, “Wizard Brother Nathan White, what do you think?”
As a fellow creature of magic, she felt that Nathan White was more qualified to speak on the matter.
Nathan White, suddenly called upon, beca nervous again, but looking at Alia Tucker, who was eagerly watching him, he quickly offered his own guess,
“It probably, probably was… just playing a joke on you.”
As soon as Nathan White uttered these words, everyone present, including Alia Tucker, was simultaneously stunned.
The live-streaming audience was collectively dumbfounded.
Was there a problem with their understanding?
The joke Nathan White ntioned… was it the sa kind of joke people make on a daily basis???
Everyone looked at Scarlett Jennings, seemingly seeking her opinion, only to see her nod her head, clearly in agreent with Nathan White.
At that mont, everyone fell silent.
“Is it sick?!”
The first to break the silence was a swear from Elizabeth Tucker.
Alia Tucker and Elizabeth inadvertently looked at her, noting the stiffness on her face.
Compared to the bond between her mother and Alia Tucker, the few encounters she had with Alia Tucker were far from pleasant.
She didn’t know how to face this girl who might be her sister.
Originally, Elizabeth Tucker had intended to stay quiet.
But hearing Scarlett Jennings say that the Rat Demon’s refusal to let Alia Tucker and her mother recognize each other was just a joke, she couldn’t help but lose her composure.
Was the Rat Demon really sick?
What normal person would make such a joke???
…
Oh right, it wasn’t human to begin with.
