Mommy Villainess - Chapter 302

“I’M NOT your “type?”” Elis Ripperton asked her. “What does that even mean, Soleil?”

Soleil sighed, then she crossed her arms over her chest. “It simply means that I don’t like you, Elis.”

“What is it that you don’t find satisfactory about me?” he asked. And his arrogant tone told her that he was still confident that he could change her mind. “Just tell me, Soleil. I will work on it.”

To be honest, the thing that she didn’t like about Elis the most was his personality.

But it was something that he could change. Or at least, fake. She didn’t want to give him even a tiny bit of hope. So in the end, she decided to choose the thing that he couldn’t change about himself– even if it meant she’d appear rude or shallow.

“I don’t like your face,” she said bluntly, trying to sound as mean as possible. She didn’t like insulting other people because of their appearance. So even if she didn’t really like Elis, she still felt guilty that she was picking on his physical form. “It’s not my type.”

Elis stared blankly at her for a few seconds, then he laughed outloud. He never laughed that loud unless he was mocking someone. And that was exactly what he was doing. “Soleil, I don’t really pay attention to my looks. But I’m aware that I have the kind of face that most women would worship. And you’re saying that you don’t like my face?”

Well, it was true that Elis was very good-looking.

It wasn’t just his face. This arrogant bastard was also blessed with a good physique. Everything about him was beautiful.

But that didn’t mean she’d fall for him just because he was immaculately handsome.

“I appreciate your beauty but your face is still not the face that I imagine waking up to,” she said firmly. “Elis, I’m sorry but I don’t really see myself getting married to you.”

“Who is it?” he asked, his aura now turning dangerous. “Whose face is it that you want to see in your waking hours then?”

Kalel Moonchester’s face instantly entered her mind.

She would admit that even in her past life, she had always been attracted to Nystrom’s cold beauty. That still stands true even now. Kalel still had the same look before. Even though his eye color changed, her feelings didn’t change.

But of course, it wasn’t just his face that she liked about Kalel.

Elis Ripperton doesn’t have to know that though.

“Do I have to have a man in my life for you to give up on me?” she asked bitterly. “Whether I have a man or not in my life, my answer to you will always be ‘no,’ Elis.”

“I won’t accept that,” he said firmly. “I challenge you to a match, Soleil Rosenberg.”

“Excuse me?”

“If I win, you’ll marry me,” the Blue Dragon, now being carried by a strong gust of wind around him, said in a cold voice. “I won’t hold back, Soleil Rosenberg.”

She took a step backward, trying to avoid the violent wind around him. “Are you crazy, Elis Ripperton?!”

To be honest, she was not in the condition to fight.

Although she won against Ainsworth, that didn’t mean she won easily. She didn’t have major injuries from her fight with the little tiger because she used her full Mana. Yes, she also summoned the Black Flame again even though it already made her faint once.

She hadn’t regained her strength yet so fighting Elis Ripperton, who was much stronger than Ainsworth, would definitely result to her losing.

But that didn’t mean she would give up without a fight!

“Yes, I’m crazy,” Elis Ripperton said, his eyes now glowing dangerously. “I can’t help but lose myself when it comes to you, Soleil Rosenberg.”

“Damn you,” Soleil said, then she opened her hands to summon her flame. “Lucina Morganna, give me the Black Flame.”

KALEL blinked in surprise when he felt his body go light.

He was pretty sure that the curse inside him was also purified. It was amazing how Alec Forrester was able to get rid of the curse that made him suffer for years. In the past, Auro tried to help him by summoning the Royal Mages of the kingdom.

But none of them were able to purify the curse.

He couldn’t decide if the Royal Mages were weak, or the saint was simply more powerful.

Considering that Alec Forrester is the saint, it must be the latter. Soleil Rosenberg didn’t lie when she said she knew someone who could help him purify his curse.

I’m indebted to her once again.

“It’s done now, Lord Kalel,” Alec Forrester said while catching his breath. Ah, it seemed like purifying the curse wasn’t as easy as he thought it was. It might have taken a huge toll on the saint’s power. “You can freely use your mind manipulation ability now.”

Kalel nodded. “Thank you.”

The saint’s face lit up as if he was waiting for him to say that. “My lord, can I ask for a small reward?”

To be honest, he didn’t expect that from the saint.

But he didn’t feel any hostility from him. And if he was a friend of Soleil Rosenberg, then he could trust him.

“What is it?” he asked carefully. “If it’s within my power, I will grant it.”

“Can you please be my younger brother’s godfather?”

“Huh?”

“Asher Forrester, my younger brother,” the saint said with an excited look on his face. “He entered the supposed-to-be eternal sleep with me. He was a little lazy so to avoid the responsibilities that were supposed to be passed down to him when I was gone, he secretly entered the eternal sleep with me.”

That almost made him laugh.

But come to think of it, it wasn’t a laughable matter. There were people who were desperate to live. But that Asher Forrester chose to die just to avoid the responsibilities of becoming the next saint.

“It sounds like I wouldn’t like your brother,” he said bluntly. “How lazy must he be for him to choose death over working in your place?”

The saint let out a deep sigh. “That’s what I’m worried about, Kalel.”

“And the solution you came up with was to make me his godfather?”

He smiled and nodded eagerly. “My lord, my brother fears you the most among the Beast Gods. Apparently, he’s afraid of your “enthusiasm” for choosing a difficult life as a human instead of living in luxury as a god. So I figured that if you became his godfather, you might influence him on becoming motivated to live.” His face became sad as if he was begging for his sympathy. “Lord Kalel, I don’t know what else to do with my brother’s laziness. So I’m begging you, please help me.”

Having a godson sounded troublesome so he tried to give the saint an “advice” just to make him change his mind.

“Have you tried another approach?” he asked the saint. “How about introducing her to Soleil? She’s a ball of sunshine, and she’s seriously full of energy. Maybe she’ll inspire your brother to live his life to the fullest.”

“I already tried that, my lord,” His Holiness said while scratching his cheek. “But Asher only ran away from Lady Rosenberg. According to my brother, spending time with her feels like getting exposed to the sun too much. It seems like the young lady’s bright and warm aura are too much for my brother.”Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click <a href=”#&apos;s-with-a-face_52484205178838428”>#&apos;s-with-a-face_52484205178838428</a> for visiting.

He couldn’t help but smile in agreement. “It’s true,” he said, almost a whisper. “Soleil Rosenberg is like sunshine.”

“Oh, you’re smiling,” Saint Alec Forrester said gently. “I thought you didn’t know how to smile, Lord Kalel.”

He was about to deny that when all of a sudden, they felt a clash of strong Mana.

It definitely came from Soleil Rosenberg and Elis Ripperton.

Are they fighting?

Before he could even process what was going on, he already found himself running towards where the burst of powerful energies was coming from.

When Soleil fought Ainsworth a while ago, he didn’t get worried. Aside from the fact that he knew Soleil would win, he was also confident that the little tiger wouldn’t seriously harm her. No matter how much Ainsworth provoke Soleil, everyone knew that the Golden Tiger had a deep respect for Soleil.

But he couldn’t say the same for Elis Ripperton.

Although the Blue Dragon claimed that he was “in love” with Soleil, he knew that he wouldn’t hesitate to hurt her or force himself on her.

Damn you, Elis Ripperton, Kalel thought to himself. If you hurt Soleil, I’ll kill you.

His thoughts were cut-off when he arrived at the scene.

He almost lost his mind when he saw Soleil Rosenberg on the ground while covered with deep cuts all over her body. Her clothes were torn, and she was bleeding profusely. It was obvious from her injury that it was caused by Elis Ripperton’s violent wind.

That lunatic…

When he turned to the Blue Dragon, his blood boil when he saw the l.u.s.tful look that Elis Ripperton was throwing at Soleil. The bastard was particularly feasting his eyes with the sight of Soleil’s exposed legs, and the deep valley of her b.r.e.a.s.ts.

That was the first time in his life that he felt so much anger rise in his chest.

“Elis Ripperton,” Kalel said, his red eyes probably glowing by now. When the Blue Dragon turned to him with an irritated look on his face, he released his bloodl.u.s.t directed at him. “I’ll kill you, right here, right now.”

***

SOLEIL, not wanting to lose consciousness in the middle of a fight, did her best to wake herself up by stabbing her leg with her dagger.

The pain definitely helped her regain her consciousness.

Her whole body hurt like hell but despite that, she still managed to force herself to get up and look for her enemy. She noticed the unfamiliar jacket that fell off when she got up, which meant someone covered her body while she was unconscious a while ago. But she set that thought aside for the meantime.

Where is that damned Elis Ripperton?

When her eyes finally managed to focus on her surroundings, she got the shock of her life when she realized that the entire forest had been frozen with, well, ice.

But the thing that shocked her the most was Elis Ripperton’s “ice sculpture.”

That Elis Ripperton has been frozen?

“If you break his ice sculpture now, he’ll die right away.”

Soleil gasped and flinched in surprise. When she turned to her side, she was shocked to see Kalel sitting beside her. He was the only one who could freeze Elis Ripperton. And she was amazed that he was able to do so without breaking a sweat.

Ah, she noticed that Kalel was only wearing a thin undershirt. That meant the jacket that kept her covered earlier was from him.

How sweet.

“That sounds tempting,” Soleil admitted. “But we still need him.”

Kalel just scoffed at her reasoning. “You’re too soft-hearted.”

Why does he look so pissed?

“It’s not I already forgave him,” she said firmly. “But if I’m going to kill him, I want to kill him with my flame.”

He turned to her and much to her shock, he gently flicked her forehead with his fingers. “You have to train harder if you want to kill that bastard.”

She laughed softly when she heard him curse. “I like it when you talk like that.”

“You have a weird taste.”

She just shrugged.

He let out a deep sigh and shook his head. “I can’t leave you alone even for a second, can I?”

“And what do you mean by that?”

“Let’s go,” Kalel said vaguely, then he stood up and offered his hand to her. “I’m going to join your journey from now on.”

Soleil smiled brightly, then she took Kalel’s hand and let him help her stand. He also didn’t let go and let her lean against him. After all, she was injured and she even stabbed her leg a while ago. “I’ll make sure that you won’t regret this, Lord Kalel.”
