Chapter 1243 - Yiksukesh's Past 3

-----
Her grandfather had given Yiksukesh a lot of things, and one of the biggest things, aside from love, was dreams.
She dreamed of exploring the outside world and go beyond the skies. To go to other Realms, and more…
"There is the Realm of Niflheim, a world of ice and snow… It is dangerous for you to go there, that place is very cold for us cold-blooded snakes." He had once said.
"Oohh…"
"And then there's Muspelheim, the land of flames. It is all covered in fire…"
Jormungandr had introduced her to most of the Realms in all of Genesis, which were over 50… they were all listed in a massive Astral Road map he bought for a few divine energy crystals in the Interdimensional Merchant Shop for his granddaughter to see. Each Realm was even illustrated.
Yiksukesh grew obsessed with traveling, and began sneaking outside whenever her grandpa wasn't around, exploring more and more of the outside of her palace. Going to new forests and hunting new prey.
She leveled up a lot back then, but was also in constant danger, as many times she ended in the verge of death for being reckless and stupid, her grandpa always had to save her in the last moment as he used his powers to reach her.
Every time he reprimanded her, but hew as way too gentle-hearted, and she never truly learned her lesson. Ultimately, she just ended growing strong enough that even being reckless wouldn't punish her anymore around the large region where she lived with her grandpa.
And at the age of 20, Jormungandr had decided to reveal her the truth…
"Yiksukesh… I… I am not your father." He sighed.
"Eh?" asked Yiksukesh back then.
"I-I ma actually your grandfather… The father of your mother… I… After your mother… my daughter… died by giving birth to your egg, I was heartbroken… but I couldn't leave you behind, so I picked you up and raised you… I heard from your mother back then that your father was a warrior and died protecting her…" sighed Jormungandr.
"…"
Yiksukesh fell silent.
Jormungandr sighed, as he was barely containing his tears.
"I am sorry for deceiving you… It is just as my sister says… I am just… a useless man… I couldn't protect my daughter… I couldn't protect anyone despite being so strong… I was… I am… I…"
"You're still my papa…"
"Huh?"
"I still love you! Don't get sad!"
Little Yiksukesh hugged her grandfather, or her papa, even if he wasn't really her father.
"I don't mind! You raised me and you were always at my side… you're my papa!" she said.
"Y-Yiksukesh…" Jormungandr muttered these words while in tears, as his granddaughter also cried sorrowfully, attacked by the sadness of knowing that her parents were long gone…
Those times were long gone now, as Yiksukesh found herself far too apart from her papa.
She had not changed her reckless behaviors at the end, and ended going "into an adventurer" outside after escaping her grandfather's watch, traveling across Realms and leveling up.
Without knowing that the greedy eyes of Gods were looking over her innocent smile.
She was one day caught as she traveled across the Realm of Vida, and forced into a Monster inside a Dungeon by a powerful God, Omgramid.
"Let me out!"
"Let you out? You're a mere monster, what makes you think you have any rights?"
"M-My grandfather is a god too! He'll kill you!"
"Hah! Who are you trying to convince with that? Little snake, go to sleep!"
"Agghhh!"
Omgramid had forced Yiksukesh into a Boss Monster and had made her experience death one.
After dying once, she felt traumatized, but tried to fight more.
And was killed once more.
At her second death, she still had will.
And was killed once more…
After Omgramid killed her ten times and revived her ten times, Yiksukesh's innocent mind was broken into pieces.
Remembering such a trauma made Yiksukesh grit her teeth and grip her fist in anger and… fear.
Despite never having seen the golem-like god before, she felt an utter horror to him.
She ended becoming submissive and devolved into an animalistic being.
Shew as slaughtered many times afterwards by heroes that came to level up and father resources.
Her original body was long gone… and the dungeon recreated a body for her each time after she died.
Her soul was the only thing left from her, and this pendant…
After experiencing so many deaths, she grew insane.
She forgot about everything and only roared monstrously and attacked anything on sight.
All her innocence and her youthful nature… all her cute personality and her gentle nature were gone.
Broken into pieces by the cruelty of the world.
Kireina once showed up.
She killed her too.
Twice.
After that, something happened.
Jormungandr contacted her.
"Bring me my granddaughter." He had said.
Kireina back then was more senseless than now.
She ended accepting because it was a good deal.
And helped her to escape the dungeon after she conquered it, which also provoked Omgramid to become a Fallen God.
She didn't resent Kireina anymore because she had done way more nice things, compensating for having killed her twice back then.
In a way, her story was a bit similar to Lazuli.
Even after a year of being freed, she had yet to meet her grandpa once more.
But she had heard that things were moving to this direction at long last.
Kireina was already preparing to move to Helheim and beat the crap out of her aunt, who had become corrupted with power.
She will finally be able to meet her grandpa again.
"Papa…" she sighed, smiling faintly.
"I am coming back… I swear… I have a lot of things to talk to you… I hope you can forgive me for being so reckless." She sighed.
She walked out of her room after that, and went to have breakfast with everyone else. And was greeted by Kireina and the rest of her family.
"Ah, Yiksukesh, good morning!"
"Good morning, everyone…"
