My Substitute CEO Bride

At this moment, Sven opened his eyes.

"Come forth, Shura Divine Staff!"

The third Shura Treasure materialized in Sven's hand. Immediately, the otherworldly fire struck.

As expected, this attack could harm the God of Shadows.

A single blast of the energy-charged otherworldly fire obliterated half of the God of Shadows' body.

Only three of its eyes remained.

Sven pressed his advantage and launched another attack.

However, the God of Shadows wasn't foolish. It quickly retreated underground.

Everyone knew this was their chance to finish it off. The four of them approached the basement entrance, where sunlight shone into the shadows. Three eyes stared intently at the group.

Even with numerous shadow watchers, they were no match for Sven, who possessed the Shura Divine Staff.

It was not because the other two Shura Treasures were weak but because the Shura Divine Staff was specifically designed to combat deities while the others excelled in specific situations.

Now, all Sven needed to do was release the otherworldly fire again, and they could completely eliminate this artificial deity.

However, at that moment, the most unexpected person stood in front of Sven.

"Mr. Mica, what are you doing?" Avery asked in surprise.

Mica had positioned himself in front of them, preventing further attacks on the God of Shadows.

Mica sighed. "Actually, I've known for a while. I just didn't want to admit it."

Mica turned to look at the God of Shadows' eyes. That gaze was all too familiar to him.

"So, that's how it is..."

Everyone was confused by Mica's cryptic behavior, but strangely, the God of Shadows also ceased its attacks. Simultaneously, tears began to flow from its eyes.

As the three looked on in bewilderment, Mica's eyes also became moist.

"I've finally... found you... Mom..."

Upon hearing these words, the three were shocked. It turned out that the body controlled by this deity was Mica's mother. Due to Sven's earlier attack with the otherworldly fire Mica's mother's personality had temporarily regained control.

Mica choked up, unable to believe what inhumane act could have turned his mother into such a... monster.

At that moment, Mica's mother slowly crawled toward him, using her remaining hand to wipe away his tears.

Her mouth opened, uttering something in an extremely hoarse voice.

Mica's body trembled uncontrollably.noveldrama

His mother took out the diamond-studded button from Mica's pocket.

"He..."

Mica took the button, understanding his mother's intention. However, this... For him, it meant sending his mother away by his own hand.

Mica threw the button to the ground, shaking his head resolutely. "There must... There must be another way..... There must be..."

His mother looked at the shattered button but did not pick it up. Instead, she pulled out an identical one from

her body and handed it to one from

Mica

again.

"He..."

Mica's trembling hands never stopped. When he saw the other button, his heart shattered.

He shakily accepted the button.

His keen senses detected the power hidden within it. This power, combined with the method his mother conveyed, could kill her...

Mica gripped the button tightly. This time, he did not smash it. Instead, he walked step by step to the outside where sunlight shone.

He aimed the button at the

basement. Then, adjusting the angle,

he reflected the sunlight through the button directly into the basement.

With this, Mica's mother, the God of Shadows, a tragic woman, closed her eyes forever.

A hoarse voice came one last time.

"He... ro."
