Chapter 650 Selene: Mom!
"Lily, are you okay?"
Looking at Lily with her eyes blank, Aiwass squatted beside her anxiously.
He first extended his left arm and placed it under Lily's neck, preventing her from slipping and drowning or hitting the back of her head. With his right hand, he gently touched her forehead, using his devotion to sense her vital energy.
"……strangeness."
Aiwass frowned and murmured softly.
Because he didn't sense any problem.
In his perception, Lily was in good health, her spirit active, her magical power surging—one could even say she was in a state of euphoria. Yet, her breathing was surprisingly calm and long, as if she were in a light sleep.
For a therapist, finding the problem is not a problem; not being able to find the problem is the biggest problem.
Aiwass thought for a moment, then held his index finger in front of Lily's eyes, emitting a faint glow. He saw Lily's pupils shrink slightly, but she didn't turn her head away, nor did she close her eyes.
“Master, Master…”
And at this moment, the newly born Selene came close to him in an extremely clingy manner.
She murmured, raised her head and gently bit and chewed Aiwass's fingers, licking the blood remaining on his hands.
By this time, the wound on Aiwass's arm had begun to heal, and the bleeding had completely stopped. Meanwhile, Selene's incomparably demonic dark red pupils revealed a sinister aura.
Selene bit Aiwass's finger harder and harder, and soon Aiwass felt the pain. He frowned slightly and pulled his finger out of Selene's mouth. But Selene, like a dog being robbed of its food, chased after him and bit Aiwass's forearm hard.
"Selene!"
Aiwass frowned slightly and scolded in a low voice.
At that moment, he clearly saw the fear and trembling expression on Selene's face.
Strangely, at that moment, Lily's body suddenly twitched. Aiwass's left arm sensed the muscles in her neck beginning to strain, her heartbeat intensifying, her chest rising and falling violently, and her breathing becoming rapid.
...Could it be that because "too much Lily" entered the new body, the old body became empty?
Or perhaps...
Aiwass noticed the umbilical cord connecting the two girls.
He unskillfully cut the umbilical cord connecting the two of them.
At that moment, Lily and Selene's bodies shook violently, and expressions of fear appeared on their faces in unison. Lily blinked violently, tears streaming down her face. Meanwhile, Selene's cloudy, demonic pupils gradually regained consciousness, transforming into human-like round pupils, though still a dark red like red wine.
"Master Aiwass... I..."
Lily sat up from the bathtub and spoke in a hoarse voice, her voice unclear and intermittent.
It was as if she had suddenly forgotten how to use her body.
At the same time, Selene also said: "Master Aiwass... I..."
The words rang out at the same time and stopped at the same time.
The two of them sat in the bathtub, facing each other and looking at each other's faces.
They simultaneously raised their left and right hands and placed them in each other's palms, just like a person holding up a mirror and clasping their hands together with their own reflection.
They looked at each other in unison, then glanced slightly sideways at Aiwass beside them—and at that moment, they finally lost sync for a moment. Lily's eyes met Aiwass's, then she shyly ducked down, shielding her body with her hands. Selene, on the other hand, proudly puffed out her chest and gave Aiwass a bright, puppy-like smile.
"...This ritual, was it truly successful?"
Aiwass frowned slightly and looked at Lily and Selene.
The good news was that Lily had regained her sanity and intelligence, so at least he didn't need to try to save her or interrupt the ritual. The bad news was... the situation now seemed different from what had been agreed upon.
Rather than separating Lily's other personality, it's more like Lily is controlling two bodies with different instincts at the same time.
"actually……"
Lily hesitated for a moment.
And Selene continued: "It should be a failure."
"My consciousness was completely suppressed just now, but now it seems that she is suppressed." Lily said.
"She can completely control this body," Selene said at this moment, "or rather, I don't think I should be able to control this body that belongs to the Path of Love..."
"And similarly, she is completely unable to control my body."
Lily continued.
They seemed to be training their ability to control two bodies separately with one consciousness.
Upon hearing this, Aiwass turned his gaze to Selene.
This girl with black hair and red eyes had completely different facial features from Lily's, not even a single one of her characteristics. Yet, she always struck Aiwass as somewhat familiar. However, Aiwass couldn't put his finger on where he had seen this face before.
But apart from her face, she also had a completely different symbol - she was obviously much whiter than Lily.
Maybe it was because she had just been born from a ritual, but Selene had the whitest skin that Aiwas had ever seen. It was a pure white that was bloodless and glowed slightly like jade.
Her features were more delicate than Lily's, giving her a vaguely Oriental air, almost like she was of mixed race. Her hair was also softer than Lily's...but the biggest difference lay in her shoulders and chest. Selene's shoulders were at least two sizes thinner than Lily's, while her chest was disproportionately high.
After staring at Selene for a long time, Aiwass suddenly thought of something.
"Wait a minute, I have an idea. Let me try..."
He pulled the mirror out of his arms and pointed it at his face.
Aiwass sang softly:
"I call upon the Twin Mirrors! God of the sacred number two, God without eyes and without self, God of pure beauty and flawlessness—
"I am you..."
As the mirror glowed, the image of Aiwass in the mirror shattered, revealing the appearance of a girl.
Then, the Aiwass reflected in the mirror and the Aiwass outside the mirror were reversed.
Another childish voice overlapped with his: "You are me—"
Aiwass was still in the mirror, but the Aiwass outside the mirror had turned into a girl with waist-length black hair, a thin figure, and eyes as clear as emeralds.
That was the form of Number Fourteen, the Son of the Moon.
She moved closer to Selene, raised her hand, and used the small makeup mirror in her hand to capture both of them in the picture.
But in the mirror, there was only the male Aiwass in his previous state, smiling and waving at the outside of the mirror.
"Number 14" waved his hand irritably, closing and opening the mirror.
This time the mirror finally showed the reflection correctly.
Without a doubt.
Number Fourteen and Selene looked very similar—though not to the point of being twins. But if the two walked together, outsiders would immediately recognize them as sisters.
Of course, compared to No. 14, who looked like just a little girl, Selene, who had been growing bigger since her "birth" and was now close to Lily's age, looked more like an older sister - she had now fully grown and looked like she was at least in her twenties.
Selene also saw this scene in the mirror.
She immediately hugged Number 14 without hesitation, nearly dragging him into the water. Amidst his panicked cries of "Ah, aah, aah," Selene shouted, "Mom!"
"……ha?"
Number 14 was stunned for a moment.
But Selene put her hand on her chest and said seriously, "This body of mine was born from your flesh and blood..."
Selene said as she immediately came over.
The originally round pupils had somehow turned into lamb-like rectangular horizontal pupils again.
"—There is no doubt that you are the mother who gave me life... Master.
"You are my mother."
Selene said stubbornly, with a strong attachment in her pupils.
