Chapter 2472: "Stand In The Light"
I Become Baby Mafia Boss
When the Godfather heard the baby mention his younger self, he couldnât help but cringe and almost wanted to bury himself on the ground.
[Donât mention him. Heâs such an embarrassment. He canât even survive and needs a child to save him...]
The Godfather ruthlessly scolded his younger self as a way to relieve his embarrassment.
His younger self was still such an arrogant and edgy young man.
He was a bitter man from another world who was forced to live a tough life in this world.
And he used to be a lone wolf, a wolf who stubbornly refused to walk with other companions.
Ainsley didnât hear the hint of embarrassment in the Godfatherâs words, and just obediently stopped mentioning the younger self to the older one.
[Well, well, I wonât talk about him. But you know, uncle, I also saw Zev there! You guys are as close as ever...]
Ainsley giggled and peeked at Zev, who tried to turn a deaf ear on the two peopleâs conversation.
Donât cue him, thank you!
The Godfatherâs embarrassment was eased a little, but when Ainsley mentioned Zev, the man couldnât help but fall silent for a moment.
Then, he let out a long sigh full of complicated feelings.
[Well...we are close. So close...]
But heâs sorry for him.
That spirit had to live for a long, long time, changing one host to another...
Just to achieve the ultimate mission that no one had ever accomplished.
If he could...he also wanted to be together a little longer with this little spirit.
The Godfather subconsciously didnât want to talk about his personal affairs in front of his beloved student, so he tried to shift the topic.
[Letâs not talk about me and him.]
The Godfather wanted to wave his hands to dismiss the topic, but since he couldnât move, he could only speak faster.
[Little brat, tell me about your adventure in the parallel world. Was it difficult to defeat those bastards?]
"Those bastards" must be the people from the World Union.
Still with tears streaming down her face without even her realizing, Ainsley slapped her thigh as she sat on the bed next to the translucent figure.
[Ah, yes! Those guys! Theyâre really hard to deal with, but somehow, because my domainâs consciousness is so unique and strong, I kidnap the other domain mastersâ domain consciousness...]
And then she took them as hostages, threatened the domain masters so that they would retreat while waving the white flags.
Ainsleyâs eyes shone with a bright light when she told the Godfather about her amazing feats.
The Godfather didnât speak and just hummed along, cheering on his studentâs exciting story.
Time passed bit by bit...
The sun still shone on the transparent figure on the bed.
Slowly but surely, the figure started to blend with the surroundings.
Starting from the toes, to the ankles, go to the knees, legs...
Sparkles spread out from those body parts, blending with the bright sunlight.
Zev noticed this change, but he bit his lips and kept silent.
He listened to Ainsley excitedly telling her story to the Godfather while the Godfather gently listened to her.
At one point, when the story reached the climax...
The Godfather rarely interrupted Ainsley.
[Little brat. I would like to listen to your full story, but it seems that...I donât have enough time.]
The man just chuckled, as if disappearing was not a big deal.
He just went to reincarnate, not dying without any trace left.
Ainsleyâs words were stuck on her throat.
Her tears on her cheeks that already got dry...got a new wet mark.
[Uncle, what do you mean? You still have time! Look, itâs just a little bit more. My story is about to end! You have to listen until the end, okay?]
Ainsley tried not to understand what the Godfather meant and stubbornly thought that the Godfather should survive until she finished her story.
If...if she talked a bit more...maybe he would stay for a little longer.
Right?
[...you...such a naughty child...]
The Godfather could only helplessly laugh at Ainsleyâs stubborn "innocence", but he didnât rebuke her.
He just listened to Ainsley continuing her story.
Even if her voice started to tremble.
Even if her words started to not make sense at all.
Even if she stuttered from time to time, choking on her tears and sobbing in between her words...
He listened quietly.
The girlâs voice slowly became a bit unclear, as if she was far away in one second, but extremely close the next second.
The sparkles had already reached the manâs waist, slowly disintegrating his body to reunite with the bright sunlight.
He...had never been a bright person as bright as the sun.
He never belonged to the light.
He used to be in the shadows.
But at this moment...as the chain of hatred and obsession was broken...
He was qualified to stand in the light.
The light welcomed him.
Ainsley was not blind. Even if the tears obstructed her sight, making her feel as if she was looking at something through a layer of water...
She was not blind.
She could see the manâs lower body disappearing into golden sparkles and blended with the gentle sunlight.
She could see.
But she refused to see.
[And then, and then...my domain successfully scared these bastards! T-they ran away...they promised to never hunt you anymore...]
The Godfatherâs response became increasingly intermittent.
He didnât even hum to respond to the girlâs story.
At this moment, when the sparkles slowly reached the manâs chest, the man on the bed, with his figure almost blending with the air....
He slowly opened his eyes.
The Godfather stared right at Ainsley, who was sitting right next to him on the bed.
