Yuki begins to remember when she first tried consoling someone, and that was even her youngest daughter. It was Aika's darkest and toughest time yet, she watched how her Mother Fairy died right with her very eyes, and that scene was embedded deep inside her brain. She couldn't even sleep well, or even eat, and this concerned Yuki a lot, so naturally she tries consoling her. But she felt like she did a bad job at consoling Aika, even if her words got through to Aika, she felt that she did less, the people that truly helped her were the ones who were around her. All of them tried their best for Aika's sake, for her to get better as soon as possible because they hate seeing her in such a sad state.
What Yuki only did on that was speak to Aika a little bit and stayed by her side at all times, but she felt that it was greatly lacking, she felt that Aika deserved a little more from her because she is her Mother. But there was nothing that Yuki can do because she doesn't have any experience in consoling someone, if she can't even console a random person on the street, how would she expect her to console her daughter or her Mother who is currently crying in her arms? She felt even more pathetic about herself, maybe for the first time in her life that she felt hopeless. Yuki didn't feel anything like this when her Mother died on Earth, she only felt betrayed, but she decided to keep on living for her sake. Or when the time she faced all of the Gods on Earth, she felt nothing like that because, in everything she do, she was always confident in winning, but this time it was clear that she doesn't know what to do. What she can only do was wrap her arms around Ayame and whisper a few words in her ear.
"I… I'm sorry for being like this… You know… your daughter has grown into a cold, emotionless, and merciless killer. I know that I have my faults and I'm sorry for that, like right now… I don't even know how to console my own Mother, but I will slowly try to learn how. And… If it makes you feel better, I will not go to the Human Kingdom anymore to get my revenge, I will just stay here with all of you." Yuki said in a quite stiff tone, it shows what she had just said about not having any knowledge of consoling someone.
"Mise me…" Ayame said between her sobs which caused Yuki to not fully understand her words.
"What did you say?"
"I said, promise me that you will never go to the Human Race to get your revenge. You will just stay with all of us here." Ayame asked Yuki to make a promise to her. Yuki easily agreed to this if it meant for her Mother to feel better again, as she felt bad because she knew that she was the cause of why Ayame felt like that.
"I promise. I will not go to the Human Kingdom to exact my revenge, but at least not now." Yuki didn't completely promise which made Ayame protest, but she knew that this is the best that she could get. But even so, she was already happy with it, it was enough for her because now she knows that Yuki wouldn't do something reckless. Now she got the confirmation from Yuki that she wouldn't storm in the Human Kingdom, at least not yet, she now knows that her daughter would only storm the Human King when is stronger. Though Ayame knows that it wouldn't take a long time until that happens, at least she has some time to prepare for it, like she can make some new Quest for her that would give her a bunch of bountiful rewards that would help Yuki with her journey.
"That is enough for me… I'm now assured that you will only fight them when you are much stronger." Ayame said with a light smile on her face, but her eyes were still full of tears though that didn't hinder her beauty at all, it actually had the opposite effect, it only made Ayame's beauty stand up. Her pitiful looks somehow complimented her looks a lot, and this is also the reason why Serene would bully or tease Ayame in so many ways for her to see looks like this, but she would never go as far as making her cry, she would just want to see her pout.
ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom Yuki sighed in relief after successfully calming down Ayame, but even after making her feel a lot better. She still wouldn't let go of Yuki, she just clung to her, but this made her shiver in fear because she was afraid that a certain someone would act up again. She was sure that Serene would get jealous as her jealousy has no bounds, she would even go as far as to be jealous of her daughter if she sticks too close to Yuki. But to Ayame's absolute surprise, Serene didn't act up, she only smiled at her very gently as if she was encouraging her to continue. She then heard a very familiar voice in her mind and hearing it, she became a little teary again shocking Yuki again because she thought that it was already over.
"Don't worry about me. I know that Yuki means a lot to you, I wouldn't ruin this moment for my sake, as long as you are happy I am content with it." That was Serene's message to her, this instantly made her cry out again because this time she felt loved by everyone. But it also brought her a few bad memories, such as her life with Andrew, but this also opened her mind. She now knows that she is much happier being in Serene's arms than Andrew, and this made her regret a little bit, if she only knew sooner that she has feelings for her maybe she wouldn't suffer. But if she knew Serene's feelings for her, Yuki wouldn't be in her arms right now, so she was still glad about that, though she still can't get rid of the trauma that Andrew gave her, especially the guilt that she did to herself of throwing Yuki away for her selfish desires
"Are you crying again because you still feel guilty about what you did to me?" Yuki seemed to have read her mind so easily, she was like an open book to her which shocked her. Though it was the truth as Yuki easily guesses what her Mother was thinking about just from the expression that she was making, the same guilty look that she had when they first met in the Immortal Realm. But she didn't let her Mother say anything and continued while she takes her seat with Ayame sitting just beside her.
"If you are worried about that… I will say this right now, you don't need to feel bad about what you did to me. Even if I can't understand or know the feelings that you did back then, I know the feeling of being selfish. It is just the way of all living being, being selfish is natural for all of us. I am worse than that, because I am greedy, and a cold killing machine. If I was in your position, I could have killed the baby out of hatred. Hahaha… See? I am much worse than you, Mother. So don't feel guilty about it." Yuki said with a laugh, but she was clearly mocking herself which didn't make Ayame feel any better because she doesn't like it when she hears her daughter saying such things.
