"I want to marry you." My statement made everyone in the throne room silent; no one could believe the words I had just spoken.
A wide smile appears on Rani's face, and her cheek turns crimson. Without wasting any time, she jumps in my embrace and moves her lips closer to mine. But Sophia instantly stops her. She loses her control and releases her dragon power.
"Mom stop now, you will kill them!"
"My son, why? Why do you want to marry this girl, you have me, I give you anything you wish, you need me only. But you still wanna marry this girl? What is so special about her? What does she have that I don't?"
She roared in desperation and wanted to hear the answer from me, her roar was loud enough that everyone started to vomit and fell unconscious in a few seconds.
"Mom, you are overreacting, you should calm down," I tried to quiet Sophia, but her anger increased instead of diminishing. Rani and Ravina soon fall in their keen as Saga struggle to stand up.
"You haven't answered me, why do you like this girl?"
"I like her because she loved me with her own desire, I haven't forced her mind to love me, unlike yours," I tell the truth that I was hiding for a long time. I love Rani for only one reason she isn't under my mind's control.
Sophia profound dragon aura stopped suddenly, I looked at her and saw, she was staring at me with dumbfounded looks. "Mind control? What do you mean?"
"System..."
(Yes, Host.)
"Release her from my mind control."
(What! Don't do that. I strongly oppose this idea, if you do that, her mind will abruptly overflow with the suppressed feelings that she has been holding or hidden somewhere in her mind.)
"Do it, I don't wish to keep her under my mind's control, it is not the love I want."
(But Host—)
"Do it." Unable to complete her phrase, System reluctantly returns Sophia's memories.
"Huh?" Sophia's pupils shine for a moment before, and her dragon aura instantly disappears as everyone breathes in relief.
However, Sophia, on the other hand, remembered all the memories that I had killed her and created a clone, how I manipulated her mind to love me, and all those nights we spent having intimacy with each other.
She fell on her knees in disbelief that all this time she was manipulated.
"Mom." I put my hand on her shoulder and called her softly but to my surprise, those eyes which she always looked at me with love and passion were disappear. All I could see there was hate and massacre towards me.
"You... Killed me!" She roars and charges her hand covered in fire to kill me. But she stopped in mid as she saw my face. Many emotions went through her eyes and remembered all the time we spent as mother and son. She bit her lips and couldn't bring herself to kill me.
"F#ck!" Sophia shouted, she opened her wing and left the throne room, bewildering everyone.
"Should I follow her?" I mused and hesitated to go behind Sophia.
[Leave her, she needs something alone.]
"Huh? But—" Before I could complete my word, Sophia suddenly interrupted me, I looked at her and saw concern for Sophia in her eyes.
"Emperor, what happened to Princess Sophia? Why did she suddenly go away?"
"She is fine and needs some time alone."
"Is that so... Then we can continue." She spoke with red cheeks and moved her face closer to mine, with a gentle touch we met our lips.
Ravina and Saga's faces turned red as all the Haman women looked at us with envy.
Juha struggled to stand, he glanced at us with shock when he saw that Rani was kissing my lips. "Rani! Have you lost your mind? You are kissing a Human, he is nothing. I'm better than him,"
Rani broke our kiss, she looked at Jaha and called her soul weapon. "Celestia! Teach this bastard a lesson."
Her body shines and the light converts into an adorable doll. She nodded her head and instantly kicked his head and wrapped a very sharp thread around his neck. The threads go inside his skin but stop before it cuts his neck.
"Aaahh! Rani Stop this f#cking doll, this thing will kill me!" He groans in pain and glares at Celestia, she kicks his face again breaking his jaw beyond the fix.
"*%&#@%&%" He wanted to cry but his voice became like a pig screaming.
"Don't ever speak bad of my Celestia and my Xzson! He is thousands of times better than you. He also is the one who killed the Wyrm and broke the eternal curse on us." She spoke fuming expression. But expectedly her words caught many people's attention.
"What did she just say that Human killed the Wyrm?"
"How is that possible? No one has ever been able to kill that demon for centuries."
"Is princess making ward? I don't believe this for her, this is ridiculous."
The citizens erupted with the news and on one couldn't believe that I killed that Wyrm. Some thought that their princess making things up only to make an excuse to marry me while others thought she had gone insane.
"He kills the Wyrm, that giant serpent? How could a little human like him could kill that... Wait he has a Celestial soul weapon. But The hero from 5 hundred years ago also had that but he failed to do that. How is that possible." Saga pondered, trying to figure out how is that possible.
Ravina walked to us with concerned looks. "Rani, don't make a joke in the throne room, especially in public as a princess."
"I'm not lying Mother, it's true, I was there when Emperor Xzson killed the Wyrm with his incredible power."
