It was his first time hearing this, \"...She is your own daughter, Randall.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's why I want her dead before she turns into a monster.\" Shifting his focus, he replied sternly, looking at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Are you fucking serious?\" Paul snapped, glaring at him, a vein throbbing in his neck, \"...killing her off is the best solution you can come up with?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...What do you want me to do then!?\" Randall snapped back, his voice rough, a dour look on his face, \"...You don't know what destruction she could cause.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She could, not like she already has—.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...She already has!!!\" Slamming his fist on the table, he yelled, \"...On her first awakening, she already has!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A memory passed through his eyes as Randall remembered the mayhem and destruction she caused when she first awakened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Trust me, I know what I am doing.\" Rubbing his brow, he mumbled solemnly, \"...She would be better off dead.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Really, Randall?\" A feminine and cold voice echoed, forcing him to look at Esmeray, \"...Or are you doing it just because your wife died giving birth to her?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...That's not the reason.\" Shaking his head, he replied through clenched teeth, trying to control his anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Then are you afraid that she will know how her own father sold her to the Heimdalls just to get butchered?\" Esmeray pressed further, her lifeless eyes boring into him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like any devout family of the Gods, the Heimdall family believed that killing a Vessel was for the best.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they discovered one, they did not hesitate to arrange a marriage with her just to keep her close.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...Had it not been for the execution of the Heimdall family, Shyamal would have been dead after her first awakening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Or is it because your beloved son died protecting her?\" She taunted, making the veins bulge on his forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...None of your concern, Lady Esmeray.\" Composing himself, he replied, glaring at her, \"...It's best to kill her before she becomes even more powerful.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Then what about your lineage?\" Quinton quickly intervened, asking, \"...Who will become your new heir?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...I found a few.\" Randall replied, taking deep breaths,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Two of the most suitable candidates are Ethan Varon and Ashlyn Zyanya, orphans from the first year in the academy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Are you planning to adopt one of them?\" Sylvania asked, making him nod his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Then I shall suggest something.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nevaeh chimed in, making everyone look at her. \"...Instead of you killing her, make someone from the younger generation do it instead.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...That will definitely increase their popularity in front of the masses,\" Quinton added, nodding his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...This can work wonderfully to elevate someone to a higher level.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Then it's settled.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Randall stated, looking at the emperor. \"...But if anything, I don't want her to be alive during the festival.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The emperor nodded his head, glancing at Esmeray, who was looking at Randall without any expression on her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...If that's over, then I would like to propose something, Your Majesty.\" Alvin stood up from his seat and slightly bowed towards Quinton.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Speak,\" Quinton instructed, making Alvin nod his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...It's about my daughter Miley,\" Alvin replied, looking deeply into the emperor's eyes. \"...I would like to propose a marriage alliance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If this is all that is left to discuss, then I will excuse myself.\" Esmeray abruptly stood up from her seat and walked out of the hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nobody stopped her as she opened the door and walked through the hallway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A shadowy figure appeared behind her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Were you listening?\" She asked without looking back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, my lady,\" Adaliah replied, walking behind her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What a bunch of lowlifes they are,\" Esmeray whispered softly as she walked towards the teleportation portal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The door of her office opened, and Adaliah let Esmeray enter first as she taking her seat on her chair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...What a bunch of mongrels.\" Esmeray scoffed with a disgusted look on her face as she remembered the so-called nobles of the empire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Why not just kill them?\" Adaliah asked, walking beside her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...They have their uses.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Why not just show your strength then?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...I do not need to prove myself to those lowlifes.\" Esmeray replied, looking at her. \"...and it's not like I need to tell them I was also a vessel.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Quinton still thinks that you are only a peak Overlord and that his father can handle you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...The more they underestimate me, the better.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Will you let Shyamal die?\" Adaliah asked, arranging her table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...She won't even make it past her second awakening,\" Esmeray replied, reclining in her chair. \"...She is too weak-minded for what she will have to face.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"....I see,\" Adaliah replied softly, nodding her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...How is Azariah?\" Esmeray asked, closing her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...He woke up from the coma this morning and returned to the academy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...So he ran away from home, huh?\" Esmeray remarked, opening her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"..My lady,\" Adaliah mumbled with a conflicted look on her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Ask whatever you want.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Isn't Azariah growing too fast?\" She asked with a concerned look on her face. \"...At this rate, it won't take him a decade to reach your level.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...You are underestimating my son.\" Esmeray replied, an amused look on her face. \"...It won't even take him half a decade.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"....How?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...'They' didn't curse him to be manaless for his entire life for nothing—'They' were afraid of what he will become.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her brows knitted together as she voiced her concern, \"...then won't he try to stand against you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...He is kind-hearted—and that is his biggest weakness,\" Esmeray commented, looking at her. \"...Belly did a great job raising him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adaliah nodded in agreement, \"Too kind hearted I would say...Even when he sacrifices his own flesh, he would still think himself selfish to keep the bones.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Give me the videos; I want to see them again,\" Esmeray requested, making Adaliah take out her tablet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...But still, won't he try to break free from your control?\" Adaliah asked again, passing the tablet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...And go where?\" Esmeray questioned, opening the tablet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...I can feel traces of Sabaoth from him; surely he is trying to manipulate Azariah from behind.....\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though I can't feel anything from Anastasia, I am sure she is up to something....\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>....Then we have the three main Gods who will try to suppress him by any means, and the Dark Trinity will surely try to kill him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\".....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adaliah pressed her lips together, unable to utter a single word as she looked at Esmeray, who revealed something so important nonchalantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...And when someone has nowhere to go...they always return where they belong.\" Esmeray added as she played the video of Irisveil's speech.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Anyway, you timed his entrance perfectly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"....Was it necessary, my lady?\" Adaliah asked, frowning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...going as far as to influence the church itself into believing that Azariah is the [Exiled Prince].\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...just in case he ever tries to break free.\" Esmeray mumbled without any emotion in her voice, \"...wouldn't it be better to turn the whole world against him?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Even the one he tried so desperately to protect?\" Adaliah asked, frowning her brows. \"...That will truly break him, my lady.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"....He is my son. Every time he breaks apart, he will pick himself up again and again until nothing can break him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Esmeray replied as she looked at Azariah's fight with Delwyn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had seen the video thousands of times, replaying them again and again, her gaze on Azariah as she focused on his entire fighting style.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...that ice and fire,\" she mumbled, zooming in, looking at Azariah using his abilities, \"...Why does it feel familiar?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"....One more thing, my lady. He asked me why he was banned from Afelihim,\" Adaliah informed, making Esmeray glance at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...What does he expect after trying to propose to the Elven Queen?\" She scoffed, rubbing her brow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...He was a child back then.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Doesn't change the fact that he tried to propose to someone else's wif—.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Esmeray's words trailed off as she focused back on the tablet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She played the video again, closely examining Neplh and Muspelh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she observed the details, something clicked in her mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huhhh.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She took a deep breath, placing the tablet down, and looked at the confused Adaliah before asking, \"....How is the world tree now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...It's barely alive,\" Adaliah answered immediately, still confused. \"....After the last attack, it only has nine years to live—.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Make it half,\" Esmeray ordered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Pardon?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...I said make the lifespan of the world tree cut in half,\" Esmeray replied firmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Sell all the information about it to the cultists or the demiurge, I don't care.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Do you want the elves to be desperate?\" Adaliah asked, tilting her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"....Yes, so desperate that they will do anything to save it,\" Esmeray replied, reclining in her chair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every plan she had till now had gone through a drastic change in her mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...And contact the Valentine family.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once again, Azariah was getting entangled in something he never wanted to be a part of.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Tell them I have a proposal they can't refuse.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1651,"2026-06-05T21:29:08.031Z",1,"novelbin.me","632c98d80a3444aacaf3bd408c5537d0c7e6941a6e685a4ec5c20efe2ec5b2d3","reincarnated-as-the-villainess-s-son-chapter-96","reincarnated-as-the-villainess-s-son-chapter-94",556,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Freincarnated-as-the-villainess-s-son-cover.jpg"]
