I Became a Foreign Worker Loved by Transcendents

Chapter 88: Anyway, Things These Days

Ego Weapon Pheloi.

For the past three months, I have considered this child as a companion.

Because of this child, I was able to overcome many dangers, and the trials that didn't kill me made me stronger.

Now that I've even transferred ownership from Tacchia, Pheloi has become an inseparable part of me.

"It's necessary to kill Mom."

So, I hoped that what I saw back then was just a fragment of a nightmare.

"I need to become stronger than I am now to kill Mom."

Even if I didn't know the reason for the hatred, for that child, 'Mom' must mean Tacchia.

But to kill one's creator and the person who gave me weapons to help me avoid danger...

"Don't talk nonsense, Pheloi. Why would I kill Ms. Tachia...?"

-No, Daddy, you have to do it.

Despite my denial, Pheloi said,

-I was drawn to you, Daddy, and I have a duty to guide those who led me as my mission.

Whopping.

Rough vibrations emanated from the spear.

Despite the whirls caused by the physical force generated by mana, that voice was clearly audible to me.

It was a calmness, neither the innocence I knew nor the brutality I saw in the nightmare.

"I was created to kill Mom."

Still, in the voice of a girl.

But those emotions were very mature and serious.

"...Pheloi."

Was that really the true feeling of this child?

Was the child's real purpose to kill her mother?

HAHAHAHAHAHA!

No, even at this moment, the laughter of Gorgon could be heard around the surging spear.

Because I wasn't swayed in the past three months, the curse's target had shifted to Pheloi.

"Right now, shake that guy off and come down, Pheloi."

Please let it be so.

Otherwise, the child would really try to kill Tachia, and it would be me who would have to control and wield the child.

-...Why?

Despite such hopes, Pheloi asked me back.

I began to feel the seriousness that had been maintained until now slowly unraveling at this moment of dissuasion.

"Daddy, you're not yet satisfied with your power, right? To become stronger, you must do whatever it takes, so why do you refuse the means to increase your power?"

"I'll listen to you once you come down. So, first, shake that guy off, and..."

"Weren't you doing this for me, Daddy?"

*Whooong. *The walls of the space began to split, and the floor was swept away by the surging power.

Fragments and dust swirling in the vortex intensified the sense of crisis, and the voice coming from the spear also grew more intense.

"I thought you'd be different from Mom, that you'd be there for me. But if this is how it is, why did you awaken me? I've been helping you, thinking that if I did, you'd help me too, but why...?"
