But was it really a spell?

Regina Crowell wasn’t a mage or a sorcerer. Her strength didn’t come from the ability to wield magic.

[And the power that exploded in her earlier wasn’t Darkness either.]

In fact, it was similar to divine power.

[Wait, divine power?]

But Regina Crowell had the Darkness attribute. She wasn’t supposed to be capable of wielding divine power...

.....

Huh, wait.

[I have both divine power and the Darkness attribute. Does it mean Regina Crowell and I are the SAME?]

She loathed the idea.

But then, she suddenly remembered what her old self said to her before.

[Old Neoma, is this the power you said you needed from Regina Crowell? Is this way you don’t want me to kill her?]

Her thoughts were interrupted when she felt bloodlust behind her.

When she turned around, she was shocked to see Rubin Drayton coming at her with a sword. It was obvious that the scumbag was about to cut her into two even though she was in her baby form.

[Does he not have any conscience left?!]

Neoma raised her short arms and opened her tiny hands. “Tteokbokki, fire attack!”

Nothing happened, though.

And she also failed to make a Dome!

She thought it was already her end when, out of nowhere, she heard gunshots.

[Jeno, my boy!]

Hence, she was forced to cover her ears with her hands. However, she didn’t take her eyes off Rubin Drayton.

[This bastard who won’t hesitate to kill a cute baby...]

Justice was served when Rubin Drayton managed to avoid the bullets...

... but not Regina Crowell who was shot in the chest several times. The crow who was still out of herself, bled a lot, but she remained in her trance. She didn’t even fall down.

Neoma smirked, knowing that Jeno did that on purpose.

“Regina!” Rubin Drayton said, hugging Regina until the two fell to the ground. “Argh!”

Tsk.

The bullet that was supposed to hit Regina Crowell in the head grazed the top of Rubin Drayton’s head when he threw his body (covered by Mana) to protect his woman.

Ha!

[Rubin Drayton, even in this lifetime, you’re still a fool for Regina Crowell!]

“You damned little princess,” Rubin Drayton, who stood from the ground while holding the bleeding and dazed Regina Crowell in his arms, said while looking at her with a gaze full of hate. “What did you do to Regina?!”

Huh?

[He thinks I’m the one who put Regina Crowell in that state? Does it mean the crows aren’t aware of her power?]

Would you look at that?

[An opportunity to become a scammer again presented itself to me easily.]

“I just Regina Crowell in place,” Neoma said, smirking as annoyingly as possible for a baby like her. “Now let that serve as a lesson not to cross me again.”

Rubin Drayton growled at her, then he stepped forward in an attempt to attack her again.

However, he was shot in the shoulder.

[Go, Jeno! You’re making your eomma proud!]

Then it began to rain bullets again.

Hence, Rubin Drayton had no choice but to step backwards until he and Regina Crowell turned translucent.

Huh?

[Can Rubin Drayton use teleportation magic? He didn’t use any device...]

Apparently, he could.

After all, Rubin Drayton disappeared with Regina Crowell in just the blink of an eye.

Neoma turned to the annex building as soon as the two disappeared.

Much to her surprise, the building was still there. However, the blue light that engulfed it earlier had already disappeared. She couldn’t feel the strong teleportation spell attached to it before.

[Did Paige succeed in deactivating the spell?]

“Princess Neoma!”

Neoma turned around and saw her Marksman of a son.

Jeno, who looked like he was about to cry, got down on one knee while looking at her with a devastated look on his face. “I’m so sorry I was late, Your Royal Highness... You...”

She frowned while looking at her son’s condition.

Jeno had a huge cut on his chest, but it looked like he couldn’t feel the pain because he was more worried about her.

“What happened to you?”

“Lord Drayton is a known archer,” Jeno explained as if he was embarrassed. “But I only remembered that when I was hit by his arrow in the back. Then he managed to cut me before I was able to get away from him. But don’t worry, Princess Neoma. My injury only looks worse than it is. The cut isn’t that deep.”

“Use the healing potion that Greko made for us.”

“Later, Your Royal Highness,” her “son” said. “What should we do about Your Royal Highness’ condition...”

“I’m fine- I just turned into a baby.”

Well, she wasn’t really okay.

She couldn’t summon Tteokbokki and her Spirits. Heck, she couldn’t even use her barriers. It was as if her body didn’t just get young- it seemed like it also reverted back to the time when she hadn’t tamed Tteokbokki yet, or back when she didn’t know how to summon Spirits or create barriers yet...

[Wait.]

“Jeno.”

“Yes, Princess Neoma?”

She pointed a finger at her face. “How young do I look right now?”

“Uhm, I think Your Royal Highness is around three or four years old?”

She gasped when the realization hit her.

When she was three years old, she hadn’t met Tteokbokki yet. It was also the time that her Papa Boss was still a scumbag who neglected his children because of his misery. And, back then, she didn’t know yet that her mother was a powerful Summoner.

[And the former saint hasn’t taught me how to create barriers back then.]

That explained why Tteokbokki and her Spirits disappeared, and why she couldn’t create barriers anymore.

[Does it mean I’m back to square one?]

“No!” Neoma yelled while pulling her hair. “I refuse to start all over again!”
