1 Prologue (2/2)

”They called mommy a barbarian...” The girl's young voice murmured through the small hut.

Hearing such words caused the woman to raise an eyebrow before lightly chuckling. She leaned down to carry the little bun in her arms, before sitting down in a wooden chair near the lit furnace.

”Rin, do you think mommy's a barbarian?” The woman softly spoke while resting the child's small head on her shoulder.

Abruptly raising her head, the girl shook her head vigorously.

How could her mother ever be a barbarian?! The woman was an absolute goddess!

With long golden hair and light emerald eyes, anyone catching a glimpse of her would think she was nothing but a magical fairy that descended from the heavens.

Giggling softly at her daughter's reaction, she strokes her soft black hair. ”Mm, that's good then. If little Rin doesn't think so, then whatever others say won't matter.”

A sudden spark flashes through the girl's eyes at her mother's words. Staring at the loveable expression on her daughter's small round face, the woman felt the urge to pinch her soft pinchable cheeks.

Leaning down, she pecked the small birthmark under her child's right eye.

Rin felt her heart skip a beat as she flushes at her mother's affectionate actions. Feeling embarrassed, she buries her head in her mother's bosom hiding her blushed face.

That day she merely wanted to stay in those warm loving arms forever. She wanted to grab onto those loving memories for as long as she could.

For as long as the vengeful gods would allow her.
