Chapter 991: COLONIZER IN THE MAKING?



She had already expected that the queen would come at her angrily because she accidentally burned down the villas that Her Majesty graciously lent to us.

Of course, she wasn\'t planning on running away from her responsibility.

[I\'m not that kind of scum.]

Hence, she had to delay her meeting with Lord Manu in order to pacify Queen Tara.

"First of all, I apologize for burning down Your Majesty\'s villa," Neoma said in a melancholic tone. Well, it was true that she was apologetic anyway. "I made sure that the trees, the animals, and the Spirits weren\'t hurt because of the incident. And if it\'s compensation you want, of course, I\'ll give it to Your Majesty."

Queen Tara\'s face turned red as if Neoma\'s words only made her angrier. "Do you think I\'m here to demand for compensation?"

"If Your Majesty isn\'t here to ask for compensation for the damages I caused, then is it safe to assume that Your Majesty is here to use this opportunity to kick us out?"

The Queen of the Spirit World looked flabbergasted by Neoma\'s audacity.

Oops.

[I let my arrogance take the wheel again.]

No wonder Neoma heard her Mama Boss gasp while Papa Boss and Lord Manu both sighed at the same time.

Gosh.

[I should be humble since I\'m in the wrong here.]

"I\'m sorry for being rude, Your Majesty," Neoma said, bowing her head slightly. "However, if Your Majesty is here to tell us to leave the Spirit World, then I suggest you return to your palace. I will not leave this place— and my people are also staying here."

"Princess Neoma, there\'s a limit as to how much I can tolerate your arrogance," Queen Tara said sternly, clenching her hands. "I welcomed you here because of your threat. The least thing you can do is to not cause any more damage than you\'ve already done."

"I understand that, Your Majesty. That\'s why I apologized and offered compensation."

"Do you think that will solve the problem?"

"I can give you another option, Your Majesty."

"Another option?" Continue the journey on m|vl-em,py-r

Neoma smiled and nodded. "I can always exercise my right as the successor of the Spirit World."

Queen Tara scoffed at what she said. "How can you be the successor of the Spirit World, Princess Neoma? Only the successor I choose can have that title."

"Oh, dear. Your Majesty doesn\'t know?"

"Doesn\'t know what?"

"Whoever succeeds in cleansing the Abyss automatically gains the right to succeed the Spirit World."

Queen Tara opened her mouth, but no words came out.

And then the queen suddenly went pale.

[Gotcha.]

"Technically, it was my children who gained the right to succeed the Spirit World since they were the ones who cleansed the Abyss."

Yep.

Neoma knew that her "children" succeeded because she felt it when the Abyss\' presence disappeared.

[That\'s why I sent Mochi to pick them up.]

"To be more precise, it was Lewis who gained the right to succeed the Spirit World because it was him who killed the Abyss. It was a combined effort, but it was his sword that ended the Abyss\' \'life.\'"

Yep, Neoma also knew how the fight ended.

She borrowed the eyes of the Spirits there to check on her "children."

[I wouldn\'t have sent them there without at least checking on them once.]

"If Lewis exercised his rights as the new successor of the Spirit World, then Your Majesty has no choice but to treat my "son" as one," Neoma said. She was still smiling, but her eyes were getting more and more disrespectful. "Just so you know, once that happens, I\'ll ask Lewis to completely take over this world."

Queen Tara glared at Neoma. "Is that a threat, young princess?"

"Nah. I\'m just giving you an option, my queen. Should we settle this peacefully? Or should I resort to violence?"

"You\'re just like your ancestors— you steal lands that don\'t belong to you."

Ouch.

"The truth hurts, indeed," Neoma said, clutching her chest. "But just because most of my damned ancestors were colonizers doesn\'t make me one. My "children" gained the right to succeed the Abyss fair and square."

Queen Tara glared at her. "But you shouldn\'t have touched the Abyss in the first place."

"It wasn\'t my fault that Your Majesty has left it alone for god knows how long," Neoma said, shrugging. "As far as I am concern, the Abyss was a free land. But not anymore." She put a hand over her chest. "The Abyss belongs to me now, Your Majesty. Whether you like or not, we\'re now neighbors. So, let\'s get along, please."

***

IN THE END, Queen Tara didn\'t ask for compensation.

[Her Majesty just left without saying anything.]

"Was I too harsh?" Neoma wondered out loud. "But I\'m really sorry about what happened."

"You didn\'t sound like it, though," Lord Manu said, scoffing. When Neoma turned to him with cold eyes, the Moon Priest avoided her gaze and changed the topic. "Has Your Imperial Highness informed the people you wish to bring to the Dead World with you?"

She was about to answer when, suddenly, there was a shift in the air.

<"I\'m back, little princess.">

It was Mochi and her "children."

Neoma smiled, but that smile quickly disappeared when she saw Xion carrying the unconscious Lewis in his arms. "My son!"

***

"YOU\'RE AWAKE, Lewis?"

Hmm?

Lewis was surprised when the first thing he saw was Princess Neoma\'s beautiful face.

"Princess Neoma?"

"Yep, it\'s your mother."

[Yes, this is really Princess Neoma.]

Lewis got up and looked around.

There was a huge tent, and his siblings were having a feast in there. A long table was filled with different kinds of food and drinks. There were even fruits there.

He, on the other hand, was lying on a single bed before he got up.

"How are you feeling, Lewis?"

"Fine," Lewis said, blinking. "Princess Neoma, we\'ve completed the mission."

"Yes, and you did well," Princess Neoma said, smiling. "Do you want to see Hanna?"
