Mommy Villainess

Chapter 115: Voice of the Supreme

LUNA knew right away that something was wrong with Lady Nystrom.

To protect her from being exposed as a Fire Mage from people who didn't know yet, she cast a spell that would make them "disappear" temporarily.

They were still in the lobby of the tower. But this time, they were inside a "cube" that completely hid their presence from anyone outside the cube. Only people at Captain Denver's level could see through her spell.

"Tilly," Kiho said while trying to wake up Lady Nystrom who suddenly became unconscious. "Tilly, please wake up."

Luna was confused.

She was sure that no one or nothing attacked the duchess. But why did she suddenly fall unconscious? Worse, her Mana was stable.

Her thoughts were cut-off when the baby in her arms touched her face.

She was surprised at how warm the little guy's hand was.

When she turned to the baby, only then did she notice that Julian had red hair something that wasn't common among Fire Mages. And his dark eyes seemed like they held secrets that only him knew?

Luna felt a shiver down her spine. What are you, child?

***

KIHO felt helpless.

His beloved wife lost consciousness and he didn't know why. Worse, he couldn't do anything for her.

God, I feel useless.

He was still in the middle of berating himself when he noticed that Tilly's chest area was now engulfed in a blinding red light.

A few moments later, Sentinel suddenly came out of Tilly's heart as if he was forcefully pushed out of it. After all, the spirit guardian fell on his behind and he had a shocked look on his face while looking at Tilly.

"Sentinel, what happened to you?" Kiho asked with furrowed brows. "Is there something wrong with Tilly's heart?"

Sentinel, who suddenly went pale, nodded and pointed at Tilly. "Look."

Kiho turned to Tilly and he was shocked when he saw a shining red diamond floating above his wife's chest. "Is that what I think it is?"

"Yes," Luna said in disbelief. Just like him and Sentinel, the witch was also staring at the beautiful red diamond above Tilly's chest. "That is Duchess Nystrom's heart."

***

TILLY woke up inside an "aquarium" like "room."

To be honest, she didn't know exactly where she was.

When she opened her eyes, she found herself inside a "room" filled with "red water." She panicked at first, but eventually relaxed when she realized that she wasn't drowning. She tried to swim around and look for an exit.

But she didn't find one.

She was surrounded by reddish "glass wall" as if she was inside a red bottle or something.

Where the hell am I?

She hit the glass wall with all her strength but it didn't break.

"Damned wall," Tilly said in anger while punching the glass. Surprisingly, she didn't feel any pain. So she punched it harder. "You're making me lose my patience, huh?"

"Gosh, you have a nasty temper."

She flinched when she heard an unfamiliar voice.

When she turned around, she was greeted by a woman who wore a red cloak

a cloak that was engulfed in red flame.

Woah, that's so cool!

Unfortunately, she couldn't see the woman's face because it was covered with white bandage. But she could tell that she had black hair.

Black hair?

"Are you the first Supreme?" Tilly asked carefully. "The owner of my heart?"

"Our heart belongs to the Red Phoenix," the Supreme reminded her. "Our real heart has already been crushed a long time ago."

Her brows furrowed in confusion. "What do you mean by that, Supreme?"

"That's not important right now," she said. "We don't have forever. You can only talk to me because the first barrier of the heart has been broken."

"There are barriers in my heart?"

"You didn't know?" the Supreme asked in surprise. "Well, it's a secret between me and the Red Phoenix. Maybe he didn't have the time to explain everything to you."

"Gosh. Just how many secrets does my heart hold?"

"Enough to keep you safe," the Supreme said. "Listen carefully. There are three barriers protecting your heart from awakening. Each time a barrier is broken, a piece of my soul sealed in the heart will be freed. And that's the reason why you can talk to me right now. But we have a limited time. I'll lend you my strength so tell me what you want me to do."

"Huh?"

The Supreme's brows furrowed in confusion. "The first barrier in your heart has been broken because you need to borrow my power. That means you have something or someone that you're desperate to save."

Upon hearing that, she gasped when she remembered the bloody image of Flint that she saw. "I need to save a young Fire Mage, Supreme. But I'm afraid that I might be too late. I saw a bloody image of him but I don't know where he is."

"Calm down," the Supreme said. "I don't know exactly where you are but I can feel that you are surrounded by Fire Mages."

She nodded as confirmation. "We're in the tower of Fire Wielders. But most of them are Fire Mages."

"Then, why don't you command them to look for the child you want to protect?"

Her eyes widened. "But how can I do that?"

The Supreme chuckled as if she found her adorable. "You still have so much to learn, little Supreme." She extended her hand to her. "Still, you're now the Supreme. All the Fire Mages are wired to serve you. After all, the flame that each of them possess came from our blood."

"Really?" she asked in amazement, then she grabbed her hand. "We're awesome."

"That, we are," the Supreme agreed. "Now, ask the Fire Mages around you to do what you need them to do and they shall oblige."

She nodded, then she took a deep breath before she spoke.

"Fire Mages, listen to me," Tilly said in a firm and commanding voice. "Find and save Flint no matter what."

***

KIHO was surprised when Tilly's heart the brilliant red diamond floating above his wife's chest suddenly grew red wings.

Red. F*cking. Wings.

Woah.

Then, all of a sudden, the feathers in the wings started to fall one by one. And then, the feathers flew in different directions before they disappeared.

Kiho could only blink in surprise as everything happened so fast. Just what the f*ck happened?

"Your Grace, I'll leave the duchess in your care," Luna said while carefully handing Julian to Sentinel who looked scared of holding the baby. But the witch immediately let go of the baby as soon as she was sure that Sentinel was holding him properly. He also noticed that Luna looked like she was in a hurry. "I'll find Captain Denver first since he probably knows what's going on in his tower."

***

MIKHAIL Denver, who was in the middle of finishing his paper work to meet up with the Duke and Duchess of Oakes, got the shock of his life when a flaming red feather suddenly appeared before him.

Just by one look, he could tell that it wasn't an ordinary feather.

His body suddenly had a life of its own.

Before he knew it, he was already kneeling before the flaming red feather with his head hanged low.

What the hell is happening to me?!

"Fire Mages," said someone in a commanding voice.

To be honest, the voice sounded familiar and yet not. And that was because two people were talking at the same time. And it looked like the voice was protected with a spell to protect the identity of those who were speaking.

Still, he knew in his heart who the owner of the voice was.

It's definitely the Supreme!

"Listen to me," the Supreme continued in a more commanding tone this time. "Find and save Flint no matter what."

To say that he was shocked would be an understatement.

Flint is in danger?!

"I, Mikhail Denver, have received your first order," Mikhail Denver said politely. "I will carry out your wish, the Supreme One."

***

EUGENE Huxley laughed while watching the commoner child cough blood.

Flint was now kneeling on the ground while clutching his stomach hard. And yes, the child couldn't stop coughing blood even if he wanted to.

One of the abilities he was born with was the ability to turn his blood into poison. He always carried a small bottle with him that contained his poisonous blood. All he had to do was force the child to drink his blood.

His poison was enough to destroy a little boy's organs in a matter of minutes.

"Eugene Huxley!"

Eugene Huxley was surprised when he heard Captain Denver's voice. When he turned around, he was shocked to see the captain in front of him. The captain was about to burn his face with his flaming arm. Luckily, he was able to jump away from him in time. "How the hell did you find this room?"

Lucina Morganna, you're useless!

That wench said that she cast a spell around the training room that would temporarily "erase" it from the tower! He believed her and so, he tried to kill the commoner child without hiding his identity.

So how come Captain Denver found him right away?!

"How dare you," Captain Denver accused him in an angry tone. "How dare you hurt one of my disciples?!"

"It's payback, you sc*mbag," Eugene Huxley hissed. Now that he was already exposed, there was no reason for him to hide his intention. All he had to do was kill Captain Denver along with the commoner child. "You killed my fiance!"

He was about to attack the captain but he stopped after what happened next.

All of a sudden, he was surrounded by angry Fire Wielders. Each one of them was pointing their weapon at him.

Dammit.

He couldn't fight all of them at once.

"Captain Denver, Flint is still alive."

Eugene Huxley was surprised when he heard a female's voice behind him. When he turned around, he was once again shocked to see a woman with pink eyes attending to the child. Damn, I didn't feel her presence!

"Permission to use my ability on Flint," the woman with pink eyes said without tearing her gaze off the bleeding child on the ground. "The process of healing him is risky though."

"Permission granted," Captain Denver said to the lady. "I trust you, Miss Luna."

Eugene Huxley hissed. He tried to attack the woman but all of a sudden, Captain Denver was in front of him.

"If you move an inch, I'll kill you," Captain Denver warned him. "I don't care if you're a count. You hurt one of my own."

"Fine, I give up," Eugene Huxley said, then he held his hands up in surrender. "But Captain Denver, you can't kill me." He smirked before he dropped his own warning against the captain. Of course, he didn't trust that useless Lucina Morganna 100%, so he had a back-up plan before he went to the tower. "If I die here, my aid will expose to the whole empire that the Fire Wielders of this tower are actually Fire Mages."

***

LUCINA was on the floor while hugging herself tight, her nails were already dug in her skin. But she had to do that to stop her body from moving on its own. And because she was "down" now, the spell that she created to protect Lord Huxley definitely disappeared.

She wanted to get up and help the count.

But the flaming red feather in front of her was making it hard for her to control herself.

No, Lucina said to herself firmly. I'm no longer a servant of the Red Phoenix!

***

"LITTLE SUPREME, your message has been successfully delivered to every single Fire Mage in the tower," the Supreme told her. "Since my job here is done, it's time for me to leave."

"So soon?" Tilly asked in a sad voice.

It had only been a few minutes, but she already felt super attached to the Supreme.

"We'll meet again once the next barrier breaks," she reminded her. "But before I go, let me ask you one thing."

"Sure," she said eagerly. "What is it?"

"Who fell in love first?" the Supreme asked. "Was it you or your husband?"

She was surprised by the question. In fact, she found it weird. But she thought it was a harmless question so she answered it properly.

"It was Kiho," Tilly said proudly. "Kiho definitely fell in love with me first. Actually, it was love at first sight for him."

She didn't expect what happened next.

The white bandage that covered the Supreme's face started to fade.

And then, she saw fat tears roll down her face. But even though the Supreme was crying, she had a pretty smile on her lovely face.

"He did? And it was even love at first sight?" the Supreme asked with a smile, but tears continued to roll down her cheeks. "Then, you'll be fine now, little Supreme."

She wanted to ask about it but suddenly, the Supreme disappeared with her flames.

Tilly was left there wondering.

Is it just me or the Supreme and I really look alike?
