Selma Payne's POV:
After our repeated insistence, my father agreed.
However, this was only one of the many mountains. My mother would not allow me to take the risk no matter what. In the end, I could only say, "If I don't do this, I'll die."
My mother was so shocked that she couldn't stop crying.
I didn't want to reveal this cruel fact, but I had no choice.
"So far, all the methods have been useless against my mutation. Even the purification runes are like a cup of water on a burning firewood cart if they are only drawn on my skin.
"If I don't do anything, my death will be inevitable. Since that was the case, why not give it a try? Perhaps this is my only chance of survival."
My mother seemed to be on the verge of fainting, but in the end, she still agreed.
"Don't leave Mommy behind, baby." She said mournfully, "I don't want anything. I only have one request, darling. Don't leave Mommy behind again. I beg you."
