New law of Beast Taming

Eclipse grabbed the Griffin and immediately set off. He had locked in Yoko’s position on his phone, so flying around with that huge creature was easy.

As he expected, it took him about 10 minutes to reach the lightly crowded area, and Eclipse quickly landed.

"Yoko, I am here. Did you need my help with anything?"

Eclipse asked with a curious expression. He wanted to know why Yoko had called for his assistance. But it became apparent quickly why she had asked for a Griffin and not taken a taxi back home.

"Perfect timing, Eclipse. I need you to return our private car to the Chlorance estate. I shall be heading back with this child."

Eclipse wanted to protest and head back together. There was more than enough room on the Griffin’s back. But he knew better than this and held back his comment.

There must be a reason for Yoko to suggest this arrangement. And if there indeed was a reason for her behaviour, Eclipse did not want to question it.

Yoko quickly grabbed the Griffin’s fur and stroked it affectionately. Then, she guided the Griffin, and they were flying off.

Amane had asked Eclipse to head back alone because she was sure she could not control herself. Her current objective was to fly as fast as possible.

And that came with risk when more than one person travelled on the back of the beast at a given time.

Eclipse would need help keeping his balance. So, Amane had eliminated the risk of that happening altogether.

The Griffin flew through the sky like a jet. Its wings did not flap as it covered massive distances to get back home. Amane knew the scenery around her was beautiful, but she did not have enough time to appreciate it.

The Griffin quickly landed in the Chlorance estate and rubbed its head against Yoko’s hands to gain some affection.

Yoko did not have time to waste, but she did indulge the Griffin in a few friendly pats. She was sure that the Griffin deserved this much, at least.

"You were such a good boy, getting me here as fast as you did. I will prepare a lot of sweets and snacks for you to eat tomorrow. You can just wait for me to visit you, right?"

Amane asked, and the Griffin nodded. The beasts were intelligent and could sometimes understand human language. This Griffin was also like that, which indicated how advanced and well-kept it was.

Eclipse did a phenomenal job with these beasts, and Amane would have rewarded him if she knew what the kid wanted.

’But I do pay Eclipse to buy whatever he needs. Still, I will ask him if there is anything he wants later. For now, I should take care of the mess here.’

Amane looked at the leading estate and everyone who ran out of it with a scared expression.

There was an inhuman and rotting smell leaking out from the main house. It was easy to pinpoint where things had gone wrong and where people were struggling.

The first place Amane headed toward was the guest wing. And her senses proved Yoko right when she saw the walls and the floor being drenched in that revolting scent.

"What is going on here? I leave this house for a single day, and you all somehow manage to mess things up? How am I going to ever retire at this rate?"

Amane asked as she walked into the wall.

The first thing Amane noticed was the dazed eyes Albus had. Her *father* did not look like a human at that moment.

Glowing yellow eyes and a loopy grin indicated that the man was intoxicated and out of his mind. Sherina seemed to have the same problem, but her control over herself was stronger than her husband’s.

"Yoko, thank God you are finally here. We have a problem and need help figuring out where to start. Could you help us out here?

Akabe stepped out before anyone could do so. He had not gone to his daughter’s side today because of this mess. It caused his mood to sour, and his eyes told his story.

"Hmm, you want me to help you? But what do I even help you with? We can’t do anything for Albus except for killing him. But are you sure you want to do that? The blood will be on your hand."

Amane reminded Akabe before he made his final decision. Akabe bit his lip in agitation, but he knew the result already.

His brother was already dead, and this abomination needed to die as well. Akabe was willing to do anything to see his brother get well-deserved rest.

"We might have our differences, but we are still family at the end of the day. Yoko, I want my brother to not suffer like this. Please, end his life for me."

Akabe begged, but Sherina heard these words and immediately threw herself between her husband and his executor.

"You cannot do that! Albus has not lost his mind; he is just sick. He will return to his regular self after getting his medicine. I don’t know what Chen is doing, but he will-"

"I don’t think Chen can help you this time. There is a big fundamental problem with your situation: the lack of sustainability of these drugs."

"The duration of action will get shorter every time you take the drug. And you might not notice it for now, btu the drug will stop working soon. What are you going to do then? Force Chen to develop a new drug?"

Amane asked her mother. And for the first time, Sherina did not have an answer for her. She had exhausted herself physically and mentally while trying to keep herself sane.

Albus showed that he had no problem letting his violent nature take over. He let out a joyful laugh before he attacked Sheina.

"Hehe he, let’s go to heaven together, Sherina. I love you."

Albus’s sharp claws dug into Sherina’s arm, and she flinched. The pain caused Sherian even to be able to see straight now. But she was still willing to bear the pain.

The head maid was the one who separated Albus from Sherina and threw the man back.

"Are you alright, miss? I shall hold your husband back, so you should run away."

The head maid sounded confident, but she was a little hesitant to do her job. She was not sure if she would be able to hold a crazy person like Albus back.

But she did not need to do that when Amane was there.

"It is of no use, head maid. My father is dead, and his obsession is what keeps him alive. We cannot drive Mother out of the situation, or Father would lose it even more. Besides, mother will soon be in a similar condition to father."

Amane admitted, and the head maid flinched. Sherina opened her mouth to protest before she closed it again. She did not know what to say about her situation except that it sucked.

She did not want to admit it, but Yoko was right. Her condition was deteriorating by the second, and she would lose her consciousness soon.

’But I do not want to die. I might have been revived as a pair with my husband, but that does not mean anything. This is my precious second life, and I want to live it.’

Sherina was making plans in her mind when she felt her hand slip and attack the headmaid. She did not even mean to do it, but the moment’s rush made her feel invincible.

The head maid looked startled, but she managed to dodge the assault and turn toward Sherina at the same time.

"Miss, what do you think you are doing? Grab a hold of yourself if you want to survive."

The head maid cautioned Sherina, but her blood was singing for revenge and to grab the head maid for her words. Sherina could feel the need to devour and conquer.

’Is this what it feels like to lose your mind? The feeling is overwhelming. And I know I should protest it, but I cannot be myself to say anything against it. This feels just too good.’

Sherina could feel the goosebumps travelling down her spine. She knew that she would not last long. She also understood why Yoko had sounded confident that there was no coming back from this.

The rush felt too much and too fast. There was no way to forget this feeling.

"Sherina, my beloved. Come, join me in my realm. There, we are invincible, and we shall live forever. The light shall take us away and birth us anew.’

These were all nonsensical words, but Sherina could feel them manifest in front of her eyes. She was about to agree with her husband when the last strike of clarity hit her.

’What am I doing? I am just proving Yoko right. That is right. I need to take care of myself right now so I do not have to face such a situation again.’

"Yoko, kill us both. You said that there was no going back now, right? Then, kill us both. Hurry up and do it."

Sherina yelled in her moment of clearness. She knew that the only way to purify herself was to die now. And she was ready to give her life for this cause.

Her husband did not even understand what was happening, but Sherina had made up her mind. Yoko only needed to follow through, and the pair would be free again.
