Chapter 827 -206 Selene: Mom!
“Lily, are you okay?”
Aiwass squatted anxiously beside Lily, who seemed to be lost in a trance.
He first extended his left arm under her neck as she lay in the bathtub to prevent her from suddenly sliding down and drowning or hitting her head.
His right hand gently touched her forehead, using the perceptiveness of the Path of Devotion to sense the state of her vitality.
“!Strange.”
Aiwass furrowed his brows, muttering softly.
He didn’t sense any problems.
...
In his perception, Lily’s body was healthy, her spirit vibrant, her Mana surging—even in an excited state.
Yet, her breathing was quite calm and prolonged, like someone in light sleep.
For a healer, not finding a problem is no problem; not detecting a problem is the biggest problem.
Aiwass pondered for a moment, then extended his index finger, hovering it in front of Lily.
He saw her pupils constrict slightly, but her head did not turn away, nor did she close her eyes by herself.
“Master, master!”
At that moment, the newly transformed Selene became incredibly clingy.
She murmured, raising her head to gently bite and chew on Aiwass’s finger, licking the residual blood on his hand.
At this time, the wound on Aiwass’s arm had also begun to heal, and the blood had completely stopped.
Selene’s demonic dark red horizontal pupils revealed a sinister nature.
Selene bit down harder on Aiwass’s finger, soon causing him pain.
He frowned slightly, pulling his finger out of Selene’s mouth.
But like a dog deprived of its food, Selene lunged forward, biting hard into Aiwass’s forearm.
“Selene!”
Aiwass frowned slightly, scolding in a low voice.
In that instant, he clearly saw a look of fear and shrinking on Selene’s face.
And strangely, just at that moment, Lily’s body suddenly twitched.
Aiwass’s left arm felt the muscles in her neck tightening, her heartbeat intensifying, her chest rising and falling violently, and her breathing growing ragged.
!Could it be that “too many Lilys” had entered the new body, causing the old body to become hollow?
Or perhaps!
Aiwass noticed the umbilical cord connecting the two girls.
He awkwardly cut the umbilical cord between them.
At that instant, both Lily’s and Selene’s bodies shook violently, and a look of fright appeared synchronously on their faces.
Lily blinked rapidly, tears continuously flowing; whilst Selene’s muddy demonic horizontal pupils gradually cleared, regaining sanity, becoming human round pupils, though they were still a wine-red color.
“Aiwass! Master! I! ”
Lily sat up from the edge of the bathtub, speaking in a hoarse and somewhat unclear voice, intermittently.
It was like she suddenly forgot how to use her own body.
At the same time, Selene also said: “Aiwass! Master! I! ”
The words began simultaneously, only to abruptly stop.
Sitting in the bathtub facing each other, they looked at each other’s faces.
They simultaneously raised their left and right hands, reaching forward to touch each other’s palms.
It was like a person steadying a mirror and joining hands with their reflection in the mirror.
They synchronously looked at each other, then cast a sidelong glance towards Aiwass—and at that moment, there was finally a brief asynchrony.
After making eye contact with Aiwass, Lily shyly lowered her body and covered herself with her hands, while Selene proudly puffed out her chest, showing Aiwass a puppy-like bright and brilliant smile.
“!Did this ritual really succeed?”
Aiwass frowned slightly, looking at Lily and Selene.
The good news was that Lily had regained her sanity and consciousness, at least no need for him to resort to refining or severing the ritual.
But the bad news was! the current situation seemed quite different from what had been agreed upon earlier.
Rather than having separated another personality from Lily, it seemed more like Lily was simultaneously controlling two bodies with different instincts.
“Actually!”
Lily hesitated for a moment.
And then Selene continued: “It probably failed.”
“Just now, my consciousness was completely suppressed, but now it seems like she is the one being suppressed,” Lily said.
“She could completely control this body,” the current “Selene” said, “Rather, I feel I should not be able to control this body that belongs to the Path of Love…”
“And similarly, she can’t control this body of mine at all.”
Lily continued speaking.
They seemed to be practicing the ability to control two bodies separately with a single consciousness.
Hearing this, Aiwass turned his gaze towards Selene.
This girl with black hair and red eyes, her features were entirely different from Lily’s, not inheriting any of Lily’s traits.
Yet, she always seemed somewhat familiar to Aiwass.
However, Aiwass couldn’t pinpoint where he had seen this face before, at least not immediately.
But aside from her face, she had other distinct symbols—she was clearly much paler than Lily.
Perhaps it was because she had just been born from a ritual, Selene was the palest person Aiwass had ever seen; her skin was bloodless, almost glowing like jade, pure white.
Her features were more delicate than Lily’s, vaguely giving off an East Asian vibe, somewhat resembling a person of mixed heritage.
Her hair was also softer than Lily’s…
But the major difference lay in the shoulders and chest, where Selene’s shoulders were at least two sizes leaner than Lily’s, yet her chest was disproportionately prominent.
After staring at Selene for a while, Aiwass suddenly had an idea.
“Wait a minute, I have an idea.
Let me try something…”
He pulled out a mirror from his bosom and aimed it at his face.
Aiwass chanted softly:
“I beseech the Gemini Mirror!
The god of sacred number two, the God of Eyelessness and Egolessness, God of Pure Flawless Beauty—
“I am you…”
As the mirror’s surface glowed, its reflection of Aiwass shattered and revealed the image of a girl.
Then, the Aiwass in the mirror and the Aiwass outside of the mirror switched places.
With another young voice overlapping his, it said: “You are me—”
Aiwass was still in the mirror, but the Aiwass outside had turned into a girl with black waist-length hair, a slender figure, and eyes clear as emeralds.
That was precisely the fourteenth form of the Son of the Moon.
She approached Selene, held up her hand, and using a small makeup mirror, captured both of them in the reflection.
However, the mirror only showed the previous male form of Aiwass, who was smiling and waving at them from outside the mirror.
“No.
14,” annoyed, waved her hand, closing and reopening the mirror.
This time, the mirror finally displayed the correct reflection.
Without a doubt.
No.
14 and Selene’s appearances were extremely similar—though not quite identical as twins.
But if they walked together, outsiders would immediately recognize the similarity akin to sisters.
—Of course, compared to No.
14, who still looked like a little girl, Selene, who appeared completely matured and easily in her twenties, looked more like an older sister.
Selene also saw this scene in the mirror.
She immediately embraced No.
14 without hesitation, nearly dragging her into the water.
Amid No.
14’s panicking cries, Selene shouted loudly: “Mom!”
“!Huh?”
No.
14 was stunned.
But Selene, placing a hand on her chest, said very seriously and earnestly: “This body of mine was born from your flesh and blood!”
Selene immediately leaned closer.
Her originally round pupils had, at some unknown time, turned into elongated, lamb-like horizontal pupils.
“—Without a doubt, you are the mother who gave me life…
my master.
“You are my mom.”
Selene said stubbornly, her pupils filled with intense affection.
