The mother, who had always been gentle and never even raised her voice, suddenly burst forth with a terrifying strength that could break free from the Demon King’s bone whip.
She even threw a 👊🏻 punch that sent her opponent reeling 😨.
This sequence of events that happened in an instant was not only unbelievable, but it also overturned Ka Xiya’s understanding.
Of course, it was true.
Because Yilisi had precise control over the force, she only let the unfilial daughter taste a bit of intense pain.
As for Ka Xiya, all she actually received were some superficial injuries.
So the girl’s consciousness remained perfectly clear from start to finish; what she had just seen was definitely not a post-faint vision.
Forget it!
Since Mom had already attacked first, she certainly couldn’t hold back.
So the next scene to unfold would inevitably be mother and daughter joining forces🗡 to brutally slay the unjust domestic abuser dragon!
Although after the dragon’s claw pressure disappeared, she herself hadn’t actually suffered much damage, and the pain had vanished without a trace—in short, nothing happened, just a false alarm.
But the momentum was building, and Ka Xiya wanted to stir up some trouble.
So, after Mom’s attack ended, the girl also seized the opportunity for her own revenge strike.
“Super • Demon Flame Dragon Breath!”
This killing move, which gathered all the magic in her body and was released instantly from her mouth, was already Ka Xiya’s ultimate technique.
If it hit at point-blank range, the girl was fully confident that she could make the Demon King, who always looked down on her, pay a painful price for arrogance.
At the same time, it would also vent anger on behalf of her mother.
Don’t ask why she would violently attack her own blood relative, because this was the unique motherly kindness and filial piety atmosphere in Ka Xiya’s original family.
In Yilisi’s words, she welcomed Ka Xiya to challenge her at any time.
But then, looking at her daughter’s smug expression of delight and the lava fireball she had confidently condensed, Yilisi’s assessment was that it was utterly pathetic.
Not only did it have a startup delay instead of being a perfect instant cast, its power was also barely acceptable.
Compared to the Demon King’s strength, this was still at the level of a breath attack.
Moreover, this purely numerical-stacking magic couldn’t penetrate her [Void] barrier.
The result of the attack was smoke without injury, leaving only a cloud of high-temperature vapor, causing no effect on Yilisi.
Furthermore, because the Demon King had used domain extension, including the floor, all the furniture and items in the room were perfectly protected from Ka Xiya’s bombardment.
And this was still Yilisi saving face for her daughter.
If she had been more ruthless, Ka Xiya’s dragon breath attack would have either been interrupted mid-cast or backfired, causing it to explode in her own belly.
However, her goal had already been achieved, so there was naturally no need to continue playing house with a child.
“Unfilial daughter, don’t be too self-righteous. If I really wanted to fight, you couldn’t last even one second. But your mother—she is the only opponent in this world worthy of my recognition.”
Although Ka Xiya was very unconvinced, she could take a loss.
From the moment her ultimate technique was nullified, the girl knew that the gap between herself and this Demon King blood relative was far larger than she had imagined.
Because after unleashing this move, she had entered a magic cooldown period due to overdrawn mana conversion, during which all magical formulas were sealed, waiting for her magic circuits to reactivate.
But what about the other party?
It seemed like a casual lift of the head easily deflected her ultimate.
If Yilisi had wanted to use domestic discipline to beat her, Ka Xiya would have no choice but to obediently have her tail grabbed, hang from the beam, and let her buttocks carefully taste the flavor of the seven-strap belt.
So, since she had a way to back down, she certainly wouldn’t be foolish enough to continue charging in for a hopeless level-skipping challenge.
However, Ka Xiya’s proud personality determined that even if she gave up attacking, she wouldn’t verbally soften and say insincere flattering words to Yilisi.
She just silently stood behind her mother, using an indifferent gaze to silently express her opposition to the Demon King.
As for Fei’ouna, she was far more mature than her daughter.
Because when she noticed Ka Xiya appearing before her alive and kicking, with only a few scrapes and nothing serious, she immediately realized that Yilisi was just playing a provocation tactic.
And to be honest, if it weren’t for her being a protective mother dragon, too concerned about her daughter’s safety, causing a brief lapse in judgment, she should have understood from the moment the other party acted that this was just a ploy to make her break out of the self-imposed confinement.
Without a doubt, Yilisi had succeeded.
For her daughter, she would do anything by any means, including reigniting her will to fight and stepping onto the battlefield.
However, Fei’ouna still had a question: why did Yilisi urgently want her to change at this point in time?
As expected, the Demon King master’s words couldn’t be trusted too much.
She had promised that she would never have the chance to use magic again, and would obediently stay in the castle as a caged bird for life, serving in bed, laying eggs, and raising children.
But now, she used such an extreme method to make her once-sunken heart burn again.
And Fei’ouna could roughly guess the reason.
“This war… is it really that imminent, Your Majesty?”
Although Yilisi confidently claimed that her former party members from her hero days had recently broken into the demon realm, and that their target was her, the traitor of the former Human Empire, the more likely possibility was that war had broken out.
Otherwise, her family’s behavior wouldn’t be so abnormal.
First, Yilisi had been away from the castle for long periods, leaving her often alone in the empty room, along with her daughter’s obvious emotional changes.
And today, she unexpectedly wanted her to go guard the city.
Even if it wasn’t war, something huge must have happened in the demon realm.
In short, it was absolutely impossible that nothing was going on.
And this time, Yilisi did not deny it.
After sitting back down on her throne, she pondered for a moment, then interlocked her fingers and gave a direct answer.
“It’s not really imminent, I just don’t like being led around by the nose by those humans. As for the specific arrangements, I’ll tell you alone later.”
Originally, Ka Xiya hadn’t planned to interrupt.
After all, she had just been punished by the Demon King; even if her rebelliousness was strong, she needed some time to build up.
But the problem was that Yilisi’s words clearly treated her as a child who understood nothing.
How could that be?
She didn’t accept it 😡.
“What arrangements? Your Majesty, since you summoned me back, shouldn’t you tell me too?”
However, Yilisi had no intention of acknowledging her.
She just uttered a single word sparingly, “Scram.”
