Chapter 116 – Episode 116- Advent Brings Stepmother Out of Prison

Unclean child.
That’s what Hera thought when she first saw the illegitimate son brought by her husband, the lord.

Why did her husband bring that trash that he didn’t mind forgetting?
Why did a nobleman who said he was happy with two daughters suddenly decide to bring that trash and make him the heir of the family?
Just put forward her eldest daughter, Yuno,
If Yuno is insecure, even if her words are a little harsh, her actions should be a second mute, so what’s the problem?

In response, Yeongju said.

‘My relatives won’t admit it.’

Relatives will be very opposed to having a woman, not a man, as the successor.
I’m going to rebel rather than oppose it.
That was her husband’s claim.

‘Madam, I don’t know because you’re from a foreign country, but there is an unspoken rule that successive lords must be male. There are too many enemies to break the rules that have been handed down from generation to generation on my line.’

These days, even though women can become heads of households and become monarchs, this island was the exact opposite.
Most of the people who believe the rumor that the world will perish if a woman is in a high position are the truth.
The lord was at least free from that kind of thinking, but his relatives were not at all.

It was to the point where he did not hesitate to make somewhat insane remarks, telling him to abandon his wife who had only given birth to a daughter and get a new wife.

‘So I brought it.’

In order to calm them down, the lord brought his illegitimate son.
I brought Grid, an illegitimate child born with another woman without much thought.
He was forcibly separated from his birth mother, and without Grid’s consent, and without the consent of his wife and daughters, he arbitrarily introduced himself as his successor son.

That fact offended Hera.

‘Couldn’t you just ask one of your relatives to adopt a child for you? We could have brought a child from our family if need be.’

Hera blatantly wanted to kick out Grid,

‘Why do you hate it so much? Do you think a child who is only ten will do you any harm?’

Her husband asked why she hated the grid so much.

‘It’s just dirty.’

Hera answered honestly.

‘It’s just dirty. The moment I saw it, I felt like my body was dirty. I thought if I let it go like this, it would eat us all.’

I don’t know why. But it’s dirty too dirty It’s dirty and I want to get rid of it right away.
If I don’t cut it, I think it’s going to be really big.
It looks like a child only on the outside, but on the inside it looks like a terrifying demon is lurking.

‘I think getting rid of it is the way for all of us.’

Hera instinctively hated Grid, and she wanted to kill him right away.

It wasn’t just Hera.

‘Father, can’t we just throw this guy away? Just send it to your mother. Why would we perish if someone like this were appointed as the successor?’

Her eldest daughter, Yuno, said Grid was unclean, and she hated him, saying that she would destroy them in the future.

‘I don’t know what he’ll do if he doesn’t use his hands now. He just kills.’

Second, Mut insisted that he should kill Grid altogether.

All three mothers and daughters shouted with one voice that Grid must be banished or destroyed.
She said let’s find another way other than the grid.

‘Hehe, wait a little bit.’

Yeongju laughed at the words of his wife and daughters.

‘It might be a hunting dog for our dreams, but it’s already abandoned. Don’t you think it’s a waste?’

As a result of a simple experiment, it turned out that Grid was a human being very suitable for becoming a monster.
If he succeeds in becoming a kaiju, he can get rid of his kinsfolk in the way, provided he can control the kaiju.
He should be able to achieve his goal of gaining control of the entire Southern Islands.

And when it is no longer useful, he abandons it and appoints one of his two daughters as his successor.
That was the lord’s plan.
Even for that plan, the grid was absolutely necessary.

‘I’ll take responsibility and tame him, don’t worry. Nothing will happen.’

So the lord ignored the advice of his beloved wife and daughters.
He ignored it and focused on turning the grid into a monster.
Hera sighed at her husband’s stubbornness, but

‘All right. If you mean it, then I must follow.’

For Hera, who has to endure uncomfortable gazes from her for not being able to give birth to her son, the lord’s plan was quite appealing.
If everything goes according to her plan, she will be able to clear out all those who would try to drive her out.
Then, one of them, Yuno or Mut, could be put forward as her successor.
If I can do that, I will be more than happy.

For this reason, Hera went along with her husband’s plan without saying anything to her.

●●●

And back to the present.

“Howeup, howeup, howeup…”

Hera was imprisoned.
Hera was left alone in a terrible environment with no light and a musty smell.
Her white hair, which symbolized her innocence, had lost its luster, and her splendid dress, which proved her lord’s wife, had long since become her rag-mate.

“Howeup, howeup, howeup…”

This is a prison.
A fortress built to catch and imprison those who committed crimes on the island.
Even though Grid burned the entire island, the prison survived intact.

In this intact prison, Grid has imprisoned the island’s survivors.
I put it in and take it out whenever I need it.
To use it as a test subject, to use it as an opponent to vent one’s anger.
Fear and anxiety always filled the entire prison at the thought that they might be dragged away and killed.
Even after all was gone, remnants remained.

Hera, who was left alone at the site of the abyss, was eating.

“Howeup, howeup, howeup…”

She was rolling her tongue eagerly as she buried her head in her dog’s bowl of semen and dog food.
I wanted to use both of her hands, but I couldn’t because her arms were bent behind her back and tied in that state.
Her legs were also tied at the ankles, so she could not move.

With her limbs bound, Hera subsisted on her daily diet of foul filth.

“Ugh?”

She was often so disgusted that vomit rose up to the bottom of her chin,

“Gulp…Ha, ha, ha…”

Somehow he swallowed it and prevented a disaster where the floor was covered with vomit.

“Ha ha, ha, ha…Jeh, damn it.”

After emptying all the way to the floor, Hera raised her head.
Hera frowned at the fishy smell of semen coming from the tip of her nose.

“I, how long have I been doing this…”
“How long, until I die.”

Hera glared fiercely in the direction she had heard her voice.

“That, Grid, yes you bastard…”
“I thought he was dead, but I’m surprised he’s alive.”

Grid, a man resembling her husband, whose hair and eyes are all black, was standing in front of the bars.
Had her limbs not been bound, Hera would have rushed at Grid at her party.
She would have jumped in and bit the guy’s neck.

How could he stay still when the guy who took everything he had enjoyed was right in front of him.
Even if he were to die, he wanted to kill him somehow.

“By the way, this place smells bad. Do you not do anything like cleaning?”

Seeing Hera like that, Kang-rim just covered her nose with her two fingers and made a displeased expression.

“Originally, this place is not managed as a rule.”

To that, her purple-haired female secretary, Atria, also answered, covering her nose with her hand.

“Do not give hope to sinners. Give them endless despair. Let them die with regret for the rest of their lives. That was the teaching of the former lord.”
“You mean you turned a fine prison into a garbage dump according to the teachings?”
“Yes.”
“It’s ruthless.”

I thought Grid would do this, but in fact it was ordered by the lord.
Kang-rim stuck out her tongue at the thought that it was also a failure.

“I would have at least cleaned it.”
“Then shall we do it from now on?”
“No, leave it.”

Atria’s proposal was rejected by Kang-rim.

“We’re going to tear it down and build a new one. It’s too late to clean it up.”
“Then what are you going to build?”
“That’s the house where my slaves live.”

Advent boasted proudly.

“I’m going to build a house built with the best materials and let them live in it. As the population increases, the number of dwellings must also increase.”
“I see. I understand.”
“But before that…”

Advent turned her head towards Hera.

“We must get her great mother out.”

Saying that, Kang-rim took out her key.
After inserting her key into the lock on the prison door, she turned it to the left.
The door opened with a click and a clang.

“Now, come on out, mother. How long can you stay in such a shabby place?”
“What are you planning to do?”

Hera glared in disbelief at Kang-rim, who was being kind.

“There must be no reason for you to take me out? Are you thinking of killing me now? Just like you killed Yuno and Mut?”

Last night, soldiers showed up and took Yuno and Mut.

‘Uh, Mother, I’ll wait for you first.’

Sensing that death was imminent, Yuno said her final goodbye.

‘No no. I don’t want to die! Help me, help me, Mother!’

Mutt was proud of himself and cried out for help while naked.
Of course, no one listened to this.

Hera could only helplessly watch as her two precious daughters were taken away.

And, she was now in a position to follow in the footsteps of her two daughters.

“If you want to kill me, kill me. Even if you insult me, I will never give in to scum like you!”
“Killing, what are you talking about?”

Rather, Kang-rim asked.

“On what basis do you say that? Do you think I killed all the people I imprisoned here?”
“Are you brazen, even knowing what you did?”

Hera revealed the full extent of Grid’s crime.

“We killed the people who were taken away, and hung their necks from the ceiling. The number increased every time we went out.”
“…”
“I even forced them to eat their bodies. They said they would kill me if I didn’t eat them.”
“…”
“You don’t intend to kill me on such a subject? Don’t talk nonsense!”

It was true.
Grid killed all of those who came out of the prison without exception, and without exception beheaded and hung their heads from the prison ceiling.
It was exhibited until it rotted away, until its bones were exposed, and until the tied ropes rotted away.
He even forced them to eat the decapitated corpse, claiming it to be meat.

Knowing that, Hera couldn’t believe Advent’s words.

“Ah, that bastard certainly did what he did.”

Advent affirmed.

“But I am different.”

She affirmed, but denied.

“I don’t intend to live like a lunatic. I never will.”
“What are you talking about…”
“You don’t understand now. But I’ll make it clear.”

Advent declared at this spot.

“I will make all women my slaves. I will give birth to my child for the rest of my life. You are no exception.”
“What?”
“You mean I’m going to fuck you too.”

What is this madman talking about?
You dare to eat your parents? Even if there is no blood involved,
Are you committing something against the heavenly rules?
Hera was shocked, but unfortunately, she had long since abandoned such morality to Kang-rim.

“Come on, let’s stop chatting and get out of here.”
“Kyaaak?”

Advent immediately lifted Hera with both of her hands.

“Let this go, let this go, let go of this!”

Even though Hera protested, Kangrim didn’t care.
With her target secured, Kang-rim turned her head towards Atria.

“Let’s go. Let’s go and wash her mother.”
“Yes, master.”

That’s how the last prisoner left in the prison was also dragged outside.
