He didn’t expect to end up officially with Meris during the meeting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thought he’d have to flirt with death again just to convince the Matriarch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But nothing like that happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Matriarch was surprisingly someone easy to talk to. She was someone who listened, and if what you said intrigued her, then you had already won.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like Meris. You just have to interest her and you’ve got her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like mother, like daughter, I guess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So right now, Kaden was about to go back to his house, after securing a deal with Mayari.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What’s the deal, you ask?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fine. Let me enlighten you, folks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s a pretty simple one. First of all, Mayari accepted the relationship between Meris and Kaden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could she not, after witnessing the effect Kaden had on Meris?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That girl became an entirely different person when it came to him, and besides, Mayari liked Kaden, so she didn’t mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was also another reason... she couldn’t let her daughter’s first kiss not be with her man, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes. Yes. You guessed it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mayari snuck a peek when the two lovebirds were kissing, thinking they were alone in this world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was also the one manipulating the garden to make it more romantic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What a mother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that’s not all. Beyond just accepting the two of them to be together—and even agreeing to officially marry them when Kaden succeeded in making his family more... open-minded—the two of them had already discussed the many benefits they would enjoy together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But here’s the thing, these were benefits Kaden couldn’t give by himself. Or at least not to the level Mayari wanted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t have that much authority in his family. Yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only his parents could offer that. Meaning...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had to talk to his parents and convince them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Easier said than done, honestly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he’d figure it out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He always did.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So now, as Kaden was about to embark once more on a turbulent travel—yes, again with an Earth Master—he glanced at the beautiful mother-daughter duo and gave them a gentle smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It was an unexpected meeting, but I loved every second of it,\" he said, showing his appreciation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mayari and Meris smiled back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It was nice knowing there exists a unique Warborn out there,\" Mayari said, teasing softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meris stepped forward and hugged him lovingly, without shame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ll miss you dearly, my love,\" she said as she snuggled her head into his chest, searching for warmth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaden hugged her back with a soft, fond smile. \"I’ll miss you too,\" he said gently, closing his eyes to savor this last moment of love.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment, they separated, still looking at each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What will you do next? Do you plan on going back to Fokay soon?\" Meris asked, holding his hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Before going back to Fokay, I need to go on a little travel,\" he responded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where to?\" she asked, tilting her head in curiosity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"East Darklore.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both mother and daughter looked at him strangely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why would you go that far?\" Meris couldn’t help but ask. After all, the distance between Waverith and East Darklore was massive. It wouldn’t be an easy trip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I need a special material that can only be found there for my father to forge a weapon,\" he lied through his teeth with ease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t exactly tell them that he was going there just to be killed by a death-affinity beast and come back, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Well... maybe he could, since they wouldn’t believe him anyway, but better not take the risk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing him, both Mayari and Meris’s eyes lit up in understanding, and they nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I wish you a good travel. Next time, we should go somewhere together!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I would’ve accompanied you if I didn’t have someone breathing down my neck every single second to train,\" Meris said, her voice bitter and accusatory at the end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mayari just stayed silent, deciding not to lower herself to argue with a 15-year-old girl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was better than that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaden, too, wisely decided to say nothing. The matter between mother and daughter would stay between them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, after some more talk, Kaden departed again—within the earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leaving behind a pair of mother and daughter still standing there, watching the spot Kaden had just vanished from.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Isn’t my Kaden the best?\" Meris suddenly said, her voice full of love.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He is. If he doesn’t change along the way, then he is worthy of you,\" Mayari said softly behind her, her violet eyes fluttering with mysterious emotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meris scoffed gently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t worry. He won’t be like that man who claimed to be my father,\" Meris said coldly, making her mother smile awkwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And I truly pray that he won’t be like him,\" she said sincerely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silence followed, until—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where is he now?\" Meris asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where else? In their own family,\" Mayari said with a shrug, making Meris want to curse out loud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why? Why all this? Why marry into our family and wait until I’m born just to go back to his own family?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What, did I disappoint him somehow? Did he want a son and not a daughter? Then what?\" Meris continued to throw out the questions that always plagued her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She never dared ask them before, afraid of the answers. But after today, after being with Kaden, she felt energized, confident, unstoppable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But all these questions...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mayari didn’t have answers for them. Hell, she was asking the same questions herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t know.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She truly didn’t.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You didn’t try to find out?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I didn’t.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why? Did you not love him enough to care why?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have duties. I’m a Matriarch. I can’t just chase after love when thousands of people count on me,\" Mayari said before turning and starting to walk away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meris’s voice echoed behind her—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you still love him?\" she asked, curious about how her mother really felt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Mayari just shook her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I didn’t love him the same way you do with Kaden,\" she said with a light chuckle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So after 15 years... the love faded away, my dear,\" she added, her voice holding no hidden feelings, no regrets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She then disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meris stood there before a small smile curled her lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I knew my love for Kaden is unique!!’ she thought with emotion, holding onto only that part of everything her mother had said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What a lovely girl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—End of Chapter 140—\u003C\u002Fp>",1093,"2026-06-03T10:53:47.503Z",1,"novelbin.me","c0d0a5b00567e780f351adb6c182e197f55f8358802b387ae6a82a2a457e72de","killed-me-now-i-have-your-power-chapter-141","killed-me-now-i-have-your-power-chapter-139",481,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fkilled-me-now-i-have-your-power-cover.jpg"]
