Lackey's Seducing Survival Odyssey

Young Aether slowly turned his head towards her, giving her a look that clearly said, Girlfriend?

Lily blushed beneath her cloak and pulled it deeper over her face, as if she could dig a hole beneath the fabric and hide inside it. It was not as though she had actually wanted to call herself his girlfriend.

Those words had slipped out because of what Lucus had said just a few minutes ago. Somehow, in the heat of the moment, she had suddenly introduced herself as his girlfriend.

Considering that she was around his age and everything… that made perfect sense, right?

RIGHT?

Lia frowned as she nervously nibbled on her nails. ‘No! No one takes my child! Not this bitch! Not that bitch either… He is my son!’ She gritted her tiny teeth, already imagining how she could take her son somewhere safe before either of them could steal him away.

And also… He was born here? In this world? Her son was hiding so many things from her!

‘How dare he!

Hmph!

No milk until he tells me the truth!

Hmph!’

Anyway, the old lady sighed and shook her head. “Whatever…” She looked at Young Aether before continuing,

“I don’t know how or why it happened, but this is how he brought her here, and she has been like this for the past thirteen years. There were no movements, no self-awareness… She wouldn’t even blink.” As she spoke, she gently poured a few eye drops into the woman’s unblinking eyes.

“Just a body that still functions. That’s all.”

Young Aether frowned as he stared at his mother, who lay motionless on the bed, her eyes fixed on the ceiling with an unnervingly blank expression. She looked alive, yet there was nothing behind those eyes that acknowledged the world around her.

Then he looked at the old woman. “And… why did he do that? Why would he bring her here? For what purpose?”

The old woman stared blankly at him before answering,

“I asked the same question… but he never answered. He never did. He only said that this was his way of asking for forgiveness.

I didn’t know what he was going through or what he was thinking, but now… I understand why. Why he wanted me to take care of this woman…”

Young Aether stared at her with dull eyes before letting out a quiet scoff. “What? He did it for me? Haha… He? Oh, please… I’m pretty sure he must have put her here just to break her right before my eyes…”

The old lady stared at him for several seconds. Her expression remained unreadable as she seemed to search his face for even the smallest trace of the boy she had once known.

Finally, she slowly shook her head.

“You just… You are just as repulsive as your father.”

Young Aether’s lips curled upward and downward as if he wanted to smash this bitch’s head against the ground again and again.

He didn’t know why, but he could feel his anger rising inside him, tightening his chest and making his fingers slowly curl into fists.

Something about the way she spoke about his father, his mother, and everything he had lost was digging beneath his skin.

“Look at you… comparing me to my fucking father. And your precious grandson is the one licking his ass. Haha… I wonder who is truly repulsive here.”

The old woman’s face turned furious.

“Aether… Don’t say a word about my grandson!

Do you know how much he sacrificed for you?

Do you even understand how much he gave up?

How much we suffered because of you?”

Young Aether chuckled hollowly. There was no amusement in his laughter.

“You suffered? Me? Oh… fucking old hag. Don’t act like your grandson is a saint!

He is just another fucking asslicker for fucking money!

If your grandson is so great, then why the fuck are you staying in this rotten place?

Why are you hiding here like the rest of the people he abandoned?

And don’t tell me it’s because to take care of my poor mother~” he teased her without hesitation.

The old woman’s hand clenched tighter and tighter. She looked as though she wanted to strike him. “Aether… You are crossing the line.”

Young Aether scoffed again, his eyes narrowing. “Me? Your grandson crossed the line already… Don’t worry, I will rip his spine out and fuck his wife’s puss—”

Slap!

The old woman suddenly swung her hand towards him, or at least she thought she had.

Lia caught her wrist in midair, transforming, stopping the slap before it could reach Aether.

Her fingers tightened around the old woman’s wrist.

For a moment, it looked as though Lia was about to rip the woman’s hand apart.

But Young Aether stopped her before she could do it.
