Chapter 86: , Cecilia: I really want to be your mother (New book, please support)

"Battle Continuation EX" activated.

Duration countdown: 5 hours.

Bai Ge calculated the time he had left and breathed a slight sigh of relief. Fortunately, he still had enough time to make the story more perfect, although he wasn't sure if what he was doing now was perfect.

It should be.

Bai Ge knew very well that he was just a time traveler now. Even if he suffered more injuries, even if he really died, it wouldn't affect himself in the original timeline.

And he, as such, had successfully saved everyone who should have sacrificed themselves in the 'Second Eruption,' concentrating all the pain and suffering of everyone onto this body that didn't matter whether it died or not.

Thinking about it this way, he should have made a profit.

Just... it was still a bit sad and aggrieved.

Bai Ge turned his head with difficulty to look at Cecilia. This saint was holding him tightly in her arms, desperately activating Black Orchid White Flower to heal his injuries.

Although this was a futile effort, the Sixth Divine Key, Black Orchid White Flower, created from the core of the Herrscher of Death of the previous civilization, indeed had the ability to bring the dead back to life.

But the moment Bai Ge's "Battle Continuation EX" activated, it meant that he was actually already dead; he was just holding onto his last breath now.

Although this last breath was a bit long, a full five hours. (Laughs)

"Cough, cough, why did it turn out like this?"

"Herrscher of the Void, don't talk anymore. I will definitely heal you, definitely..."

"I know my own body. Also, my name is Bai Ge. It seems none of you have ever asked for my name. Herrscher of the Void or whatever, I don't go by that name, cough, cough, cough!"

"... I'm sorry."

Cecilia said with self-reproach and guilt.

A name is a very important thing; a person's name is the proof of their existence as a human.

The boy in her arms insisted on his human name because even after becoming a Herrscher, he believed he was still a human.

But everyone, including herself, except for his few companions, only called him the Herrscher of the Void, as if subconsciously they no longer regarded him as a human.

Cecilia showed a look of shame.

She hugged Bai Ge tightly because all she could do now was to warm the boy's cold body as much as possible.

"Your name is Cecilia, right? Please tell me, is our wish really too much?"

"Sirin and I just want to live properly. We don't want to hurt anyone."

"We just want to find a warm and beautiful place, build a small home, and live on."

"Is even such a wish asking too much of us?"

Bai Ge clenched his fists. His original plan was to ignore Schicksal and Anti-Entropy, find a warm home with the girls, and live peacefully until the simulation ended.

However, reality was just that cruel.

"I'm sorry, it's all the fault of us adults. You should have lived such a life; you all should have lived such a life."

Cecilia said with compassion, and the Valkyries surrounding them also shed tears one after another.

The boy's wish was not too much at all; he was as kind as he was, and deserved to be treated gently by everyone.

"............"

Bai Ge took a deep breath.

He manipulated this scarred and exhausted body with difficulty, broke free from Cecilia's embrace, and pressed his hands on the saint's shoulders.

"... Cecilia, you must be a very good person, a very good mother. Since that's the case, can I ask you one thing? Please take care of Sirin and the others for me in the future. I'll use my remaining core as a reward."

"I promise you, but you don't need to give any reward. We were all saved by you, and we all owe you our lives."

Even if it weren't so, I would want to help you as much as I can. Cecilia's voice was trembling. She pulled Bai Ge into her embrace again, feeling heart-wrenchingly painful.

"... Thank you, cough, cough, sorry, I didn't know anyone would really be willing to help us for free. When we were in Babylon, even a single bite of food required a price."

Bai Ge didn't break free this time. Cecilia's embrace made him feel less cold. The warmth and softness of this saint made him feel that his body wasn't even that painful anymore.

But he only enjoyed it for a short while, although he really wanted to fall into a deep sleep, really, really wanted to spend all his remaining time on this.

Because this was also the first time Bai Ge had experienced the warmth of maternal love, something he had dreamed of in the depths of his heart but had been unable to obtain in two lifetimes.

At the same time, he was relieved.

Bai Ge believed that after entrusting Sirin and the others to Cecilia, nothing would happen even if he were gone. This gentle mother would treat them well.

After all, she was a saint willing to pay the price of all her blood to save all the residents of Siberia, and even at the end of the original plot, when she was about to be killed, she was willing to use her warmth to light up a ray of light in the life of Sirin, who was trapped in darkness.

"Thank you for being willing to hold me like this, it's very warm."

"Eh? Why..."

Cecilia was stunned for a moment.

Bai Ge's expression of having gained something precious made her puzzled about what she had done to satisfy the boy.

She had just hugged him like she hugged Kiana.

"I, I don't have parents of my own."

"!!!"

"If only you could be my mother, cough, cough, eh~ it really hurts, even if I can still move, there's no way to fight like in my prime!"

Bai Ge frowned, trying hard to adapt to this broken body, feeling fortunate that a Herrscher didn't rely on the body to fight, otherwise it would really be difficult.

"... How could this be?" Cecilia felt heart-wrenchingly painful.

Why was this world so cruel to him? She really wanted to say yes right now, as long as you don't mind, I would be honored to be your mother.
