The Villain’S Daughter-In-Law Is Inherently Powerful [EN]: Chapter 57

Immanuel suppressed a groan, watching Kiraxus’s determined back.

‘Why is he so… It’s like he feels she’s a daughter he found late in life.’

Come to think of it, Immanuel also couldn’t help but keep a close eye on the white ferret.

At first, he just thought she would be useful, and then he was genuinely surprised by how capable she was. Since then, Florin had continued to demonstrate amazing abilities, and yet she didn’t seem to think much of herself.

A simple and unpretentious child.

When she does express a desire, she just wants to eat one more delicious dessert and looks genuinely happy.

Then, when Florin transformed into a human, Immanuel was a little shocked. She was so different from the children who bore the name of Dribljane.

He was moderately aloof, worried that excessive pampering would make his successors jealous of Florin, but in reality, he had thought she was adorable countless times.

So, whenever Immanuel was around Florin, he unconsciously suppressed his pheromones as much as possible.

As he took the lead, others also seemed to sense it and were more careful when dealing with Florin.

Thus, without knowing anything, Florin was receiving consideration from the family members, retainers, and elders alike. Despite being an albino, she was able to live comfortably within a family with such powerful influence.

“I should have warned the children separately.”

“No, my lord. Even if you had warned them, something like this would have happened at least once.”

Soon, Immanuel took his wife’s hand and stepped out into the garden.

Long ago, when he was the heir, there had been several fights more serious than the current situation.

So, this fight was actually nothing much, but….

“The children have been severely scolded, so let’s wait and see if they can learn and grow from this experience.”

When Florin wakes up, he should prepare something nutritious and feed it to her.

Immanuel stroked his chin, his eyes gleaming.

If there were a dragon somewhere, he would catch one and boil it down to make a tonic.

‘What should I feed her?’

5:30 AM. The hour when dawn breaks.

Linda, who had been changing the cool towel on Florin’s forehead, suddenly slumped over.

The nanny, who had been rubbing her gritty eyes next to her, checking if the blood was disappearing from Florin’s fingernails and toenails, also drifted off to sleep at some point.

The doctor, who had been dozing off and on in the next room, the guard John who was guarding the front of the door, and even Salones, all lost consciousness without a sound at that very moment.

Kiraxus, who was leaning back with his legs crossed in an arrogant posture, spoke slowly without turning around.

“You’re finally here.”

The sarcasm in his tone made the other party chuckle lightly. The voice was so light that it seemed like it would float away.

“Don’t be so angry, honey. I came, didn’t I?”

Ruffle, rustle.

With each step the being, whose gender was unknown, took, stardust made of light fluttered.

The ‘being,’ with sea-blue hair and eyes like those of the imperial family of the Holy Empire, passed by Kiraxus with a knowing smile on its face.

“You’ve grown up well. I’m glad.”

The voice was as smooth as silk. It was dreamy, seductive, and clear, as if it were not human.

“To think you would grow up so well… I’m proud.”

The being, floating a few centimeters above the ground and looking down at Florin, had a form similar to a human body, but that was not its true form. It was merely imitating it to interact with the human realm.

Kiraxus had seen the true form of that being only once.

“Poor thing. Does it hurt a lot?”

As the ‘being’ gently lowered itself over Florin, long hair, like a flowing river, cascaded down.

The ‘being’ tucked the cumbersome hair behind its ear and lightly kissed Florin’s round forehead.

Then, the atmosphere trembled lightly, and a fragment of pure light flowing from the being’s lips quietly permeated Florin.

Soon, after confirming that Florin’s breathing was improving, the being smiled brightly and turned around.

“To offer prayers to destroy only my temples if I didn’t show up immediately. That’s a bit much, honey.”

“You should have shown up sooner; you’re so slow.”

“You’re the only one in the world who glares at a god like that.”

The ‘being’ sighed sadly, pretending to be upset. Of course, it didn’t work on Kiraxus at all.

If they were the fools of the Holy Empire, they would be shedding tears and worshiping the fact that they had met a celestial being, but Kiraxus had as much faith as an ant’s tear [meaning, almost none].

Thus, he used this great being called a god as a panacea [a remedy for all ills]. Because that being could quickly and surely improve Florin’s condition.

Kiraxus, who was looking at Florin’s complexion with unwavering eyes, released the tension from his clenched fist only after confirming that her condition had definitely improved.

He knew that she wouldn’t die from this, but what his head knew and what his heart felt while watching her pain were separate things.

If left like this, Florin would have suffered for more than a week.

After that, her stamina and energy would have been greatly reduced, and she would have suffered for a long time.

‘Thank goodness.’

With a long breath, Kiraxus also released the tension from his clenched molars.

Then, he casually posed a question to the being in front of him.

“I have something to say. It seems like you returned the power faster this time than in the past.”

The ‘power that is neither a bubble nor a water bubble’ that Florin mentioned was none other than divine power. It was also a pure power directly bestowed by the celestial god, even purer than what the Pope possessed.

However, it was not Kiraxus’s wish for Florin to have that power. It was even more undesirable to have it earlier than before the regression [referring to a time loop or reincarnation].

“Ah. In the past, I was just hesitant because I was worried that this child might be hated. Since you already love this child in this life, wouldn’t it be nice to realize her power a little earlier?”

The celestial god covered its mouth with its long sleeves and smiled softly.

It was truly a sacred sight, but Kiraxus only growled without even blinking.

The Holy Empire guys should know that such a person is a god.

“I warn you. Don’t give any revelations this time. If you do that again and bother me, I’ll turn the Papal States to dust.”

“Eek, that’s too much.”

The celestial god wiped its eyes again, pretending to be sad.

Kiraxus frowned at the attitude that did not have even a speck of respect.

“But you know. This child is the purest and most beautiful soul that I barely created by tempering it hundreds of millions of times in the forge of the gods.”

The celestial god winked one eye and took a seat next to Kiraxus.

Each time it took a step, light gathered to form what was needed, so it could sit in the air without a chair.

“I love this child very much. So, I can’t help but pour out my love to the fullest.”

Fluttering.

Dazzling butterflies made of light flew up and placed something at Florin’s bedside. Kiraxus, who easily recognized that it was a scripture, sighed deeply.

Before the regression, Florin awakened her divine power around the age of seventeen. At the worst moment, in the worst way.

A meeting where the high-ranking officials of the Holy Empire and the high-ranking officials of the Magic Empire were all gathered.

It was right then that this damn god gave Florin a revelation in front of the Pope. The Pope went crazy and tried to take Florin… Well. It was a natural consequence.

“But I won’t give any revelations. The most important thing is that my child is happy… I don’t think she was happy.”

“You know it.”

“So, please allow her to have her holy power a little earlier, honey. It’s a power that my soul, which I created, should rightfully have. In the first place, she should have been born as a saintess a long time ago, but unfortunately at that time….”

The smile disappeared from the celestial god’s face. But he could sense what he was about to say.

Raheen.

That woman who was worshiped as a saintess in the Holy Empire.

Well, even an evil god is a god, so there’s nothing wrong with the title of saintess.

Later, he learned that the woman had wished to become a saintess to the evil god.

“Because my brother’s incarnation wished to become a saintess first, my poor child was kicked out of the world. I wonder how hard it was for her to live in a completely different world, not the world where she should exist.”

“……”

“Fortunately, the child my brother chose made a greedy second wish, so I had a chance to bring this child back.”

When Raheen was sealed by wishing for an eternal winter, the evil god’s influence decreased, and the celestial god’s influence increased.

Accordingly, the celestial god immediately used its power to divide the world into two.

The world below the surface and the world above the surface.

The world below the surface was a world where only ‘Raheen’ existed as the one and only saintess.

On the other hand, the world above the surface is the world where Florin will exist.

The celestial god divided the world in that way to foresee and prepare for what would happen in the future.

Before taking Florin’s soul, he created the world below the surface in the form of a book and induced her to read it first.

That was the blessing he could give to his incarnation.

To reduce the burden and rejection of the world where she should have originally existed. To know in advance about the adversary ‘Raheen.’
