But grabbing this opportunity would allow her to escape once again.
No one was better at fleeing than she was, and no one could catch her!
"..."
Blasphemous Lord Melogast paused, her raised hands trembling as she lowered them, her expression turning to one of disbelief,
"Calila... Calila again... You actually consider other demons as your mother... I'm so jealous I'm going crazy!"
The motherly façade of Melogast crumbled, replaced by uncontrollable madness.
"I am your only mother, only I would love you this much, love you so much I want to monopolize you, to merge with you!"
She shrieked sharply, her body transforming into a purple scorpion-like shadow swooping toward Princess Huebelle.
"Freak... I don't have such an aunt."
Princess Huebelle and the gray kitten in her arms both stared fixedly at the Blasphemous Lord.
She needed to seize the moment to escape from the jaws of danger.
Not even a fraction less would do.
