Chapter 1919 [Supreme Wars: Act II] 4/14: Freedom

-----

"Why am I battling like a mad dog?"

"I'm not like this…"

"Why? Just why, Hel?"

"Why would you give us such fruits?"

"I thought… you loved us…"

"Hel… Is this how you would treat your siblings, despite everything we've done for you?"

"I still remember… when you were such a sweet girl…"

"Hel…"

"HEL!"

The voices of Fenrir and Jormungandr could be heard by Loki as stepped into their minds through the advanced Supreme God-Rank Divine Spell [Mind Sanctuary], allowing the Illusion Attribute Pseudo Supreme Goddess to enter the depths within their psyches.

As her sons which she had abandoned, Loki slowly began to gain more and more guilt as she lived her life. After the catastrophe that divided Genesis into Realms, she lost complete contact with them.

Through the power of Fate, she knew that they would eventually become the new Gods of the new Genesis, yet… She was afraid. She didn't wanted to get involved in all of this danger; she didn't wanted to become part of this mess.

It could be said that through her entire life, Loki had always been running away from problems, from everything. She always sought a place to belong, but at the same time, when she was given a family that could create this warmth she always longed for, she was afraid.

She walked away, and only watched over them sometimes, checking on them occasionally, and making sure they grew strong and healthy.

Yet she was never the mother these three needed, despite all her fears, deep down, she still wanted to remain at their side.

It was until much later, when she realized that because of her negligence, her daughter had grown corrupted, and her two siblings, too obsessed with protecting her, obeyed any of her wicked ways.

"I'm sorry, Fenrir, Jormungandr… It is all my fault." Her voice echoed within their psyches, as Loki's powers destroyed the darkness parasitizing their minds and bodies.

Phantasmal entities began to slowly dissipate before her might, these entities were a byproduct of the fruits they devoured. Parasites made specifically to control her two dumb brothers, which Hel knew would not agree to the bloody path she wanted to walk through.

"I should had been there for you since the beginning…" She cried. "I'm sorry…"

Her two sons manifested themselves within their psyches as two small creatures, a black wolf pup and a tiny purple snake.

"W-Who are you?" Wondered the small pup.

"You're…?" The small snake wondered.

Loki glanced at their small forms, remembering the long-forgotten past. The past that she couldn't go back to anymore. She embraced the two of them, as tears flowed from her eyes.

"I'm sorry… I was a coward… I was such a useless mother… You don't know how many times… I wanted to hug you like this… Yet I never dared to, I was so foolish…" Loki continued crying, having long ago tossed away her mask of irony.

The two children felt her warmth, as their eyes continued crying. Deep within their memories, they could remember her voice and her smile, her warmth which only they felt so long ago.

"M-Mother?" Fenrir asked.

"Y-You're here? You've come…" Jormungandr was shocked.

"And I won't go anywhere…" Loki sighed. "You're free to hate me for everything I've done… I deserve it."

"…"

"…"

Both glanced at Loki pitiful appearance, surprised. From what they remember of her, she was always smiling and being cynical, yet in this moment, she opened her truest heart to them, her two children.

"If I was a good mother, if I had tried to defy Fate instead of trying to let it take you away from me…" Loki continued crying. "Maybe we could had stopped everything that happened…"

Fenrir and Jormungandr glanced at one another later, and then sighed, glancing back at her one last time. They sighed, feeling slightly bad themselves.

"We've also been quite the fools." Fenrir sighed.

"We couldn't believe our sister had become a monster… We didn't wanted to believe it." Jormungandr said.

"Such foolishness led us to the tragedy of today… Where I almost killed my two successors…" Fenrir sighed.

"And where… I almost… took the life of my precious granddaughter." Cried Jormungandr.

The two glanced at Loki with expressions filled with decisiveness.

"I can't really say that I am not resentful for what you've done to us as a family but…" Fenrir sighed. "But you are not the only one to blame, mother…"

"I can say the same…" Jormungandr sighed. "Please, help us bring Hel back to her senses… Despite her cold behavior, I know that her true self is still there, dwelling deep within her psyche… She needs you more than ever, mother."

Loki opened her eyes in surprise over her children's acceptance of her…

"I will… I will help you get her back, even if it costs my life." Loki smiled.

FLAAASH!

The darkness dissipated, as the three of them woke up. That very moment, Fenrir and Jormungandr's madness dissipated, as they finally felt like they had control over their bodies.

As if for a slight moment, the great sun within the world of Genesis shone brightly, its sunlight piercing across the clouds of Helheim and cleaning the skies, faintly so, as if to announce the awakening of the two Kings of Realm.

"A-Ahhh! Eh? W-Where… Huh?!" Fenrir woke up, inside of Rimuru's body, wrapped on slimy tentacles. "UWAAAGGH! Let me go! T-This is creepy as hell!"

"Oh, looks like Lord Fenrir is back to normal!" Barked Wagyu in happiness.

"Indeed… Loki did it!" Kekensha celebrated.

"Nngh… Yik… Sukesh…" Jormungandr groaned, opening his big eyes.

"Grandpa… Grandpa, is that you?!" Yiksukesh quickly woke up.

She moved towards her grandfather, embracing him with her much smaller body, coiling around his big head and giving him kisses.

"Grandpaaaa! I missed youuuu!" She started crying like a little girl.

"Hahh… It felt like I've been submerged in an endless nightmare…" Jormungandr sighed. "Yiksukesh… I'm so happy you're still alive. And… I'm so sorry for hurting you… I can't believe… I almost ended taking your life."

"It's fine, because that wasn't you, right?" Giggled Yiksukesh. "And you're freed at long last!"

Everyone around had to admit that seeing Yiksukesh in such an energetic and happy mood was quite the sight, after having lived her entire life with a gloomy personality.
