It had been a few days since they last went out to catch butterflies, and Lucia's condition was getting worse and worse.
I'm so hungry, so hungry, my stomach is so hungry. It's grumbling and protesting to itself.
Lucia hadn't eaten for a few days. Of course, it wasn't because the people of Boli Shrine were abusing them. It was because she didn't miss the real food that a dark demon should eat. It came from the darkness of the human heart, and the darkness of the human body couldn't be separated from their body. In other words, Lucia's real food was humans.
Although the food that Fleeting Year and Little Ling Meng had made for her was delicious and had the taste of home, she was so hungry that her belly was almost sticking to her back. Her empty stomach was constantly thinking about her desire to eat. If she wasn't careful, she would look at Little Ling Meng and Fleeting Year beside her with eyes full of appetite.
No, no, I can't do this. I don't want to. I don't want to eat people anymore. I clearly made a promise with them. I want to live happily and simply together. If I eat people, I can only return to my past life and never return.
Under the night sky, Lucia turned around and looked at Little Ling Meng, who was sleeping next to her with a happy smile on her face, and Liunian, who had a serious expression on her face for some reason. She looked like a little adult, and smiled gently. Her eyes were filled with longing that she had never shown before. She gently kissed the two of them on the forehead, then resolutely walked out of the shrine and left.
Not long after Lucia left, Ama covered the two of them with a thin blanket and sighed deeply. Then, she put on her mask again to cover her determined expression and followed Lucia's trail.
After a while, Liu Nian got up and hugged his sister in his arms. He covered her with the blanket and carefully looked at the cute little face of his sister, Ling Meng, who was sleeping soundly. He deeply engraved her face in his heart.
"Let's go."
A sigh came from the darkness. Fleeting Time had already disappeared without a trace. The warmth that belonged to Fleeting Time gradually dissipated, and the shrine became deserted. Only Ling Meng was left alone, curled up under the blanket, and twisted her body uneasily.

In the forest, the bright moonlight shone through the gaps in the forest, revealing specks of white light in the shadows. It was very strange and terrifying. Lucia leaned against a big tree, her body trembling helplessly. She bit her arm with her teeth, and blood dripped from her arm.
The delicious scent attracted all the dark creatures hiding in the forest. In the past, Dark Lucia, as a great monster, only needed to release her great monster aura to make these creatures retreat. But now, Lucia, who had not eaten for a long time, was very weak. Moreover, if she died, she would not have to worry about not being able to resist her instinct to eat, nor would she have to worry about breaking her oath.
"That's why I said that dying is the simplest way. It's so good to end everything once and for all.”
"Yes, dying is the simplest and most efficient way.”
A voice filled with supreme pressure spread out along with the cold footsteps, scaring the shadows that were hiding in the shadows into fleeing far away. Mother walked out from the shadows and looked at the weak Lucia with cold eyes.
"As expected, after waiting for so long, you've finally become like this. How is it? Do you feel that you can't stand the hunger and want to eat people? But you're already so weak that you can't move, right? The absolute hunger is about to cause you to fall into a berserk state, and the loss of power has caused you to be in your weakest state.
"Even if I kill you after this, it won't leave any shadow in the children's hearts. The warmth you've felt for so many days has already made you completely let down your guard. So, now, go to hell!”
Her mother kicked Lucia in the stomach, sending her flying to the ground.
"Are you hungry? Are you in pain? Are you sad? Do you want to eat me?”
Her mother grabbed Lucia's hair and punched her in the face. Her face was twisted and a few of her teeth were knocked out. Tears mixed with blood dripped down her face.
"What's wrong? No matter how weak you are, aren't you still a big monster? Why didn't you resist me? Why didn't you fight me? Where's your dignity? Where's your spirit that would rather die than submit?”
Mother threw Lucia far away. Then, she clenched her fists, and her bones cracked. A dangerous aura flowed through her body.
"Eh, forget it. It's better to get rid of you as soon as possible. After that, I'll seal the newborn dark demon. In the future, a unique and rare demon like you won't have to go through so much trouble to retreat. I still have to go home to accompany my children.”
He threw a powerful punch at Lucia without holding back, but it was blocked by Lucia, who seemed to have suddenly awakened. The strong wind from the punch made the surrounding trees rustle. Lucia smiled with a face covered in blood.
"I'm really sorry. I don't want to die like this either. I still want to see the smiles of those two children again.”
