Chapter 303: Crazy fools
"...what do you mean?"
As she watched his expression shift from confusion to rage, Maya was struck by a wave of fear and vulnerability. Even though they were miles apart, with him in Hokkaido and her on the border of Nagano and Yamanashi, she could sense the danger emanating from him. It was a chilling realization that left her feeling exposed and defenseless.
Somehow, this reminded her of her father, who could cast magic and kill someone on the video call.
Did he have a similar ability?
Inwardly, she sighed, thinking that she was too hasty, yet at the same time, she also had a feeling that Isao wouldn't kill her. It was just her intuition, though, but it didn't matter since she didn't have much of an attachment to this world anyway, the world that had robbed her future; she just wanted to destroy it, and if she could make him angry, and destroy this world, then wasn't it worth it?
"Since you have been with Nee-san in Okinawa, you should have met her children, right?"
"Yeah."
"Oh, but you sure are a pervert to sleep with my Nee-san when her children are present." Even if Isao might be stronger, Maya didn't even have a fear and even mocked him. "I have heard that you are a teacher for her children. Did you have fun playing the role of a perverted teacher who slept with the mother of his students?"
"...."
Even if Isao had been angry about Maya's threat before, he couldn't help but feel at a loss because of her words, and Saeki's gaze hurt him!
Still, as if noticing the change in Isao's mood, Maya smiled and said, "Calm down, okay? One hour is a long time; you should be able to reach our place before that, right? So, let me tell the story of our family first. Let's see... let's begin with how I was kidnapped and raped and experimented on by my kidnappers from Dahan when I was 12."
"...why did you tell me that?" Isao felt even more at a loss.
"Because I want you to understand why all of this happened." Watching his uncomfortable expression, Maya was happy. "Well, fortunately, those people and the country who had done that was destroyed by my father and half of the members of my family, and from that action, we also got a reputation to the world, which made no one dare to anger us."
Then, how could you smile like that?
While Saeki was confused at how Maya was so at ease when Maya talked about her past, she was also confused why, even though she had been sitting by Isao's side, Maya didn't notice anything.
Did he have a power that she didn't know?
As Saeki was confused, Maya said, "Ah, I got sidetracked, but because of that accident, everyone, except for me, wishes to have a guardian, a perfect magician who will protect us from anything in this world.
"Tatsuya, Miya's son, is that hope, the guardian that everyone is hoping for. When he is about to be born, everyone is so excited, thinking that hope is about to appear."
The horror and terror that was felt by the Yotsuba Family at that time was so strong that it reached the point of paranoia.
"However, as you have guessed, the one that is born isn't a guardian but a monster, a destroyer that can destroy the world with its ability."
As Maya said so, she was full of excitement, and her face flushed like it was drunk.
When Tatsuya was born, she thought that her wish had been fulfilled and was filled with happiness.
Tatsuya's ability was so powerful, and it was also the reason why Isao hardly used it since the moment he used it, his opponents would disappear and vanish from this world.
Decomposition.
It is the ultimate destruction ability, and in front of it, nothing can remain.
Nevertheless, with such an ability, everyone should be happy, right?
After all, Tatsuya was so strong, so he had the power to protect everyone, yet that wasn't the case. While everyone wished to be protected, they didn't wish for this guardian to have the power to destroy the world.
The existence of Tatsuya wasn't a guardian that would protect everyone but a nightmare that would bring everyone endless guilt.
Isao also didn't deny it, and this was also the reason why Miya also erased Tatsuya's emotions since if Tatsuya had an emotional outbreak, whether it was anger, fear, jealousy, hatred, or many others, his ability would be out of control and subconsciously Tatsuya would erase those who caused those feelings to him.
As Isao was once weak, he also understood their reason since, in this world, no one could stop Tatsuya. Except for him, of course, but at that time, he hadn't entered this world, so there was nothing he could do.
Nevertheless, like how Miya took away everything from Maya, Tatsuya was evidence of Maya's strong feelings to rob everything from Miya.
However, what did Tatsuya have to do with his children with Miya?
"Do you want to abort my children with Miya?" Isao asked calmly, yet inwardly, he had already tried to hold his fury.
"Of course not~! I am not that cruel, okay?" Maya sighed and asked, "Do you think I am a devil that will abort the children on my Nee-san's belly?"
Isao didn't say anything and asked, "What do you want to say after all of that?"
"Geez, impatient, aren't we? But you only have an hour, after all, so it is normal for you to lose your calm." Maya nodded, then said, "From that story, you should know that everyone wishes to kill Tatsuya, right? But they weren't able to do it since my uncle stopped them." Watching his expression change, she smiled and said, "But now, my uncle passed away, and no one could stop them, but Tatsuya is so strong now, so they can't do anything.
"Now..."
Maya smiled and said, "The children between you and Miya might have a chance to become the second Tatsuya; what do you think they will do to Nee-san without uncle and without Tatsuya's strength?"
No one thought to kill Miya, but as her pregnancy was still early, it was best for them to erase another threat that might appear in this world since the longer they hesitated, the more dangerous it was for Miya's health, so no one hesitated and made up their minds to erase the chance for another Tatsuya to be born.
Isao took a deep breath, and he knew that Maya was trying to see what he would do.
This woman was crazy, yet he also understood that it was amazing that one could remain sane after what she experienced.
Being kidnapped, raped, and experimented on, and when she returned to her family, she thought to get the warmth of the family, yet she was killed by her sister and, more importantly, she lost her ability to get pregnant as she lost her womb.
To have the simple happiness of a woman becoming a mother was impossible for her.
In this world, Isao could see that Maya had no attachment, and she just wished for everyone to be in the same pain as her, watching them be in despair and misery as they had no hope in this life.
Frankly, if Miya didn't even have a hope to destroy this world, she might not even have a will to live.
Yet, while Isao felt sorry for this woman, it wasn't the reason for her to toy with his baby inside Miya's womb, and at the same time, he knew that he had to come to stop those crazy fools.
"Now, you understand, right? Come on here. I will be waiting for you~!"
Without waiting for his response, Maya hung up the call as she wondered how Isao would come. Naturally, she didn't intend to let those people succeed in aborting Miya's child since even if she was a little insane, she wanted to kill everything and even destroy the world; a family affection existed in her heart.
Well, this family affection was quite distorted due to her value and the experiment on her.
Still, even if that was the case, Maya didn't want to see those people touch Miya and abort Miya's children since if she let them succeed, how could she be different from those who had messed up her life before?
What she wished was to get Isao to go to her house as soon as possible, and with his confidence before, she wondered what he would do.
'Well, I plan to help him before...'
However, as Isao said so, she decided to wait.
"Isao..."
Saeki knew that Isao's children were at stake at that moment.
If he couldn't come as soon as possible, then his children would be aborted by those crazy guys in the Yotsuba Family.
As for Miya?
Saeki also understood that it was impossible to rely on that woman.
"Wait here."
"Yes."
Hearing those words, Saeki nodded obediently since she knew that Isao tried to hold his emotion and tried to be gentle with her since she was also pregnant by him.
Still, at the same time, she tried to think of a way to help him, but she was also helpless since even now, no one knew where the headquarters of the Yotsuba Family and even if many tried to find it, no one had ever found it, but then—
Suddenly, a mass of dark fog emitted from Isao's body, creating a portal, and as he entered this portal, he disappeared and vanished before her.
"...this? Is this a warp gate?"
As Saeki was dumbfounded, Maya suddenly saw a dark mass suddenly appear in the hall. She was startled and was ready to use her magic, but then her heart was filled with shock since she didn't expect that—
Isao appeared before her.
And at that moment, a nightmare came to the Yotsuba family.
