BXBX NOVEL Chapter 26: Mother and Daughter
"You sure make yourself at home, Morgana," the woman said as she looked at her daughter lying with a red-haired boy sleeping peacefully.
"It\'s good to see you, dear mother," Morgana said as she looked at Alice, who was clearly red with anger.
"Before you wake him up, let\'s go somewhere else." Morgana and Alice disappeared and reappeared in the clouds at a small tea table.
"What do you want, mother?" Morgana said, pondering everything her mother could say.
"Why?" Alice said, looking seriously at her daughter. "Why did you marry him?" Alice added.
"Because I wanted to," Morgana replied, staring at her mother.
"Your authority over my life is over, Mother. I decide my life. My choices don\'t have to be approved by you," Morgana responded, raising her tone. She had reached her limit.
"And if you really have something to say, say it now," Morgana concluded.
"Do you understand what you\'re doing? These two spells can\'t fall into a child\'s hands, Morgana!" Alice said, and then Morgana looked at her mother seriously and showed her something.
"Domain Expansion," Morgana murmured, and her mental world materialized throughout the area.
"See this." Morgana pointed to the horizon. Alice was shocked not to see the object that should have been there.
"Where is it?" Alice questioned while looking at Morgana, who smiled.
"Don\'t tell me..." Alice almost fell into shock but quickly summoned her center and called for two legacy spells.
"Legacy: Pendragon!" She shouted, and the magic had no effect. She quickly tried the next spell, "Legacy: Merlin!" Both spells broke and disappeared from Alice\'s mind.
"The Legacy has been unlocked," Morgana said, looking at Alice.
"Do you want to discuss now why I married a child?" Morgana said, but in an angry tone. Her mother had always been authoritarian and arrogant, even when something benefited her, her mother belittled her. But not now. Now, she had reached her complete peak. Who cared about the whims of an arrogant old woman pretending to be young?
"Tsukuyomi," Morgana murmured, and the whole world was covered by a starry black sky.
"It\'s over, Mother. You have no power left to subjugate me," Morgana said as she pointed the scepter at her mother. "If you try to separate me from Dante, I will separate you from this reality." Morgana said seriously.
Her mother, however, despite being shocked, couldn\'t help but sigh. She knew about the resentment Morgana held, but she never tried to approach her daughter and fix the relationship; all of this was just the result of her lack of wisdom.
Alice looked at Morgana and smiled; her daughter had grown enough to challenge her. She was truly proud.
Morgana didn\'t understand the smile but maintained her posture and the scepter pointed at Alice.
Alice raised her hands and snapped her fingers. "Anti-magic," she said, and everything stopped, all the spells Morgana planned to cast ceased, including "Tsukuyomi," as the night disappeared into a garden of cherry blossom trees.
"You\'ve grown, my daughter," Alice said, then snapped her fingers satisfied as her entire mental world unraveled, and both returned to reality.
"Congratulations on your wedding," she said and stood up, turning into beautiful neon blue butterflies as her smile reached Morgana.
