"Oblivion..."

I had to sit in a daze for a while after hearing that word.

'Punishment?'

My mother had failed to carry out her duty and received oblivion as punishment?

"Is that really true?"

"At least as far as I know."

"..."

Noya's words were hard to believe outright, yet I had no reason to distrust them either.

I was aware of the capricious nature of the world. If indeed my mother had been punished, the reason was clear.

'...For failing to fulfill her role as a disaster.'

That must have been the cause.

Now I understood.

'Why my mother looked at me that way.'

Why did she look at me with such emotionless eyes? It felt like I finally had an answer.

The problem was.@@novelbin@@

'Then, the mother I met?'

What about the mother I encountered at the Divine Dragon Hall and the one who appeared when I faced the Blood Demon? She was definitely my mother. The entity referred to as the master of the Banished Realm was also my mother.

The Blood Demon's reaction confirmed it, and I was sure of it.

'What's going on?'

I couldn't understand.

And then, the words my mother said before I lost consciousness came back to me.

'She told me not to look for her.'

Was that statement made in anticipation of this situation?

'So, did my mother know I would come to this world?'

No matter how I looked at it, that seemed to be the case.

How?

'Was there some mechanism in place? Or did my mother intentionally send me here? No, that doesn't seem intentional.'
