[ … words ]

“YUMI!”

Oh.

Tilly got the chills when she saw Kyro hugging Yumi’s lifeless body.

She knew that the two were enemies.

But, at that moment, all she could see were two unfortunate lovers played with by the gods.

[I want to know what happened to the confrontation between Kyro and the Sun God earlier, but this scenario seems important, too.]

“My lord, is that you?” Yumi asked weakly, her trembling hands touching Kyro’s face. Her eyes were barely open, but the weak smile on her face suggested that she had already recognized her husbands. “You’re back…”

“I’m sorry, I’m late,” Kyro asked in a cracked voice, crying. “But I’m here now. I won’t let anyone hurt you again.”

“Then can you get rid of the filthy child in my womb?”

Tilly covered her mouth with her hands when she gasped.

And Kyro looked as shocked as she was.

“Yumi, if I do that, you’ll die…”

“I’d rather die than give birth to another filthy monster, my lord,” Yumi said bitterly. “To be honest with you, I didn’t want you to see me in this state. This body has been violated by another man so many times, my lord. I do not deserve to be your wife anymore—”

“I don’t care about that,” Kyro said, cutting Yumi off. “You’re still you, Yumi— and you will always be my wife.”

Oh.

Tilly suddenly burst out crying.

“What’s wrong, hon?” Kiho asked worriedly while cupping Tilly’s face between his hands. “Are you hurt?”

“K-Kyro and Yumi really love each other,” Tilly said between sobs. “I know they’ve done so many bad things to us and our family. But watching them now hurts.”

After all, Yumi was a victim.

[Of course, I know that being a victim isn’t an excuse to hurt other people. However, I want to cry for her in the meantime.]

“I understand, Tilly,” Kiho said, gathering her in his arms. “For the first time in a long while, I feel bad for my parents. I know that they hurt our family. But as their son, I couldn’t help but feel their pain at the moment.”

Tilly nodded in agreement, and then she buried her face against Kiho’s chest while crying.

As a wife and as a mother, she felt Yumi’s pain.

[I haven’t forgotten that she’s a bad person, but at this moment, she’s nothing but a victim.]

“My lord, I’m begging you— please get rid of the disgusting thing in my womb. I don’t care if it kills me. This body is already filthy anyway.”

Tilly shut her eyes tighter.

As a woman, she really felt bad for the younger version of her evil mother-in-law.

“Yumi, I can’t afford to lose you.”

“My lord…”

“If you hate your body now, then I’ll find a new shell for you.”

Huh?

Tilly raised her head and looked over her shoulder.

She saw Kyro carefully placing a hand on Yumi’s tear-stricken face.

[Did he say a new ’shell?’]

As in a new body?

Tilly got the answer to her question when the scenario changed again.

***

A KINGDOM within a gigantic cave…

… and hundreds— no, thousands— of dead white snakes around.

A woman with pale skin and green snake eyes stood in front of a huge altar made of marble while looking down at Kyro who was carrying the unconscious Yumi in his arms.

“The Snake Goddess?”

Tilly turned to Kiho who looked shocked. “The Snake Goddess? Isn’t that Yumi’s title… oh.”

Oh.

[Is this how Yumi became a goddess?]

“What do you want, Moon God?” the Snake Goddess asked coldly. “You didn’t come to my lair just to slaughter my children, did you?”

“It’s time for you to shed your skin, isn’t it?” Kyro asked indifferently. “Kindly give me your shell and rest in peace now. You’ve already lived long enough anyway.”

“That’s true. But I have no reason to give you my shell.”

“I don’t care. Give it to me.”

“Or else what?”

“You’ll join your children in the afterlife.”

The Snake Goddess let out a hollow laugh. “How insolent.”

Kyro let out a sigh. “I’m sorry, but I need your shell for my wife.”

And then the two gods clashed.

However, Tilly and Kiho didn’t get the chance to witness the fight between the Moon God and the Snake Goddess.

The scenario changed once again, after all.

***

A BLOOD BATH.

Tilly frowned at the blood that was ’sticking’ to their feet.

In reality, she couldn’t feel anything.

However, she could imagine how disgusting the feel of blood would be on her skin.

[Obviously, the Moon God won.]

That was why the person in Kyro’s arms was none other than the Snake Goddess now.

“It’s the same shell,” Tilly commented. “But the soul…”

“Yes,” Kiho said, nodding. “The soul inside the shell belongs to my mother.”

Soul switching, huh?

Tilly’s gaze landed on Yumi’s original body. “A hole… in the stomach…”

How gruesome.

“Kyro probably killed the child in her womb,” Kiho said indifferently. However, there was an unfamiliar emotion in his eyes as he watched his parents. “Just like what Mother wished for.”

’Mother.’

Tilly wondered if Kiho noticed that he kept calling Yumi ’Mother’ again.

[Ever since Kiho disowned his parents, he never addressed them as ’Mother’ and ’Father.’]

Of course, she understood why Kiho was acting that way since she also felt bad for Kyro and Yumi.

[However…]

Tilly hoped that knowing the past wouldn’t soften Kiho’s resolve to fight his parents.

[That’s what I hope for myself, too.]

“Yumi, wake up.”

Almost immediately, Yumi— now in the body of the Snake Goddess— opened her eyes. “M-My lord…?”

Kyro smiled as if he was relieved. “It worked.”

“It worked?” Yumi asked weakly, and then she raised her trembling hands. “These pale arms… they don’t belong to me…”

“I put yourself in the shell of the former Snake Goddess.”

“The Snake Goddess?” Yumi asked in disbelief. “Then… I’m possessing the body of a goddess. Does it make me a god now, my lord?”

“You can say that,” Kyro said, nodding. “Normally, possessing a god’s body doesn’t make you a god. However, the Snake Goddess is special. She maintains her youth and vitality by shredding her skin and absorbing the souls of young maidens. This time, I killed her soul so it wouldn’t be able to retrieve her own body again.”

“In short, the Snake Goddess is no more?”

“You’re now the Snake Goddess, my dear.”

“A new body,” Yumi whispered, smiling as tears fell down her cheeks. “Thank you, my lord.”

Kyro smiled and nodded. “Anything for you, Yumi.”

Ah, so that was it.

Tilly clenched her hands as she saw the pain and sadness in Kiho’s eyes.

[This is how Yumi became the Snake Goddess.]
