I, the only superpower on earth.

Chapter 140 Descendants

After Estrella left, Navalli was raised by her grandmother alone.

During the period, there was a heavy rain and the lake was in high tide. Because the house was built very close to the lake, my grandmother moved to live in another place in the village.

Fortunately, most of the money left by Estrella in the past has not been spent. In addition, after leaving home, she still mails banknotes from overseas from time to time. The accumulated money is more than enough even if she moves to a new house.

In addition, with the passage of time, some more people have been added to the village. Due to the increasingly chaotic urban environment, many urban residents have chosen to counter-urbanize and settle Because the poor and poor can only grow crops but cannot cultivate special crops on a large scale, it is a barren rural area that is looked down upon by many criminal groups in Mexico.

As a result, the population gradually prospered in the village, and the spiritual needs for rituals such as folk prayers and blessings were rekindled. Wizards received attention again, and the lives of grandmothers and Navalli became more and more affluent.

until ten years later.

……

The day Estrella returned to the village, the first time he met her, Navalli didn't know that this woman was his mother.

The woman has a thin figure, thin cheekbones, a shadowy light in one eye, and she walks with a limp.

Even so, there are still traces of beauty in the shapely appearance. Under the long dark curly hair, there is still an impressive face. Even though it has been worn down for a long time, it is full of light.

The tall and slender woman stood in front of Navalli who was on his way home, her brown eyes were shining with condensed light.

"Hey, kid, do you know where the Turnbotta family moved now?"

Navalli looked at the woman, raised his head, and showed a habitually expressionless face, but in fact he was a little surprised:
"...Termberta, are you looking for my grandmother?"

"grandmother?"

This time it was the woman's turn to be stunned.

She looked at Navali's face in detail for a long time, and muttering something like "it doesn't look like that at all", she walked over and grabbed Navali's shoulder without any sense of strangeness. hooped him.

"Come on, take me to your house."

Navalli's body bounced, but he didn't move immediately, staring at the woman's face:

"Who are you?"

The woman smiled.

She grinned, revealing some yellow front teeth, and there was an obvious gap between the upper and lower rows of teeth, which looked like it had been knocked out of it.

"Who am I? I am your mother!
"—Come on, take me to your grandmother, my mother, Turnbotta."

This is the first meeting between Navalli and Estrella with a clear awareness of both, and it is also a reunion after a ten-year absence.

……

After bringing Estrella stiffly to his home, Navalli watched the woman enter the room and wanted to go in together, but the grandmother understood what happened the first time she saw Estrella matter.

She turned the boy away with Navari's rare serious face, and said to him:

"Navali, you go outside and play for a while."

Then, grandma closed the door heavily.

Only Navalli, who was restless, stayed outside the house.

He was thinking about what he saw just now and what the woman said. Although there was no expression on his face, his heart was on the verge of turmoil.

The woman said...

"I am your mother"...

Mother……

She is Estrella...

really...

Navalli hugged his arms, feeling on the verge of turmoil and splitting.He also heard about his mother, whom he had never seen since he was born, and there were occasional gossip in the village.

As a child, Navalli also sometimes looked forward to the moment of meeting his mother, who was like that ubiquitous background in the union of subconscious and dream, without definite outlines but blending with shadows everywhere. , so you can breathe her presence all the time.

...However, Navalli never expected that the first meeting with his mother would be under such circumstances.

Moreover, her appearance is completely different from the imagined woman—even though Navalli doesn't know what his mother should look like.

More importantly, Navalli didn't experience any mother-like feeling from her.

When she grabbed Navali's shoulder with her hand, at that moment, Navali was tense, not because of what Estrella said, but because her hand touched her The touch on the shoulder.

——It was cold, oppressive, but also slippery, like a poisonous snake letter.

In it, there is no love component, only the cold and sticky desire to control.

The moment he was caught by Estrella, Navalli felt physically disgusted and bored.

Navalli stood outside the room, anxiously waiting for the conversation between his grandmother and the woman. He didn't know what they were talking about, nor how long they were going to talk, let alone how this conversation related to him.He knew nothing about it, all he had was fear, fear of that woman.

In order to fight against the fear in his heart, he moved his head to the sky.

But at this moment, he suddenly noticed that a small dot seemed to appear in the sky.

……That is……

Navalli opened his mouth slightly.

The small dot—the small dot became infinite in an instant, as if it covered the entire sky, but it seemed infinitely small, it just condensed in front of him.

It seems to exist, and it seems not to exist.

However, in the gap between its existence and non-existence, the phantom is slowly unfolded, and information that does not belong to this era flows out of it.

crack……

nothingness……

god……

god……

Until the end, a man, just like this, suddenly appeared in front of Navalli.

"... oh boy."

The man's skin and hair were also dark, but he looked nothing like any other Mexican Navalli had ever seen.

He smiled brightly and playfully, and waved to Navalli lightly.

The man's face is very good-looking, but - it is very strange that Navari can't give an accurate description of the man's appearance, because although the man is right in front of him, he will forget the man almost every time he blinks Only when he opened his eyes and actually looked at him would Navalli realize that he had really seen the appearance of this person.

It was an extremely contradictory feeling.

It also made Navalli understand the identity of the other party almost instantly——

"Are... are you a god? Are you—Tezcatripoca?"
