The Goddess Made A Mistake Again-Chapter 230 - My Mother-In-Law
"COUGH COUGH!" Abigail coughed as soon as she heard those words being uttered by her mother.
"MOTHER! What are you saying!" Abigail said to Hysteria.
I just… I just looked at the woman in front of me and wondered, 'She's the teasing type, isn't it?'
As if she understood what I thought, Hysteria nodded, "Yes, now you have a teasing mother-in-law! That's like the third greatest combo after the mother-daughter one."
'Sh- She… can read my thoughts!' I thought only to get reminded by her as she nodded.
This… this would become a problem for me.
"You don't have to worry, Henry." As if she also had premonition of what I was feeling, she gave a bright smile, "I'll keep those secret thoughts about us, only to ourselves." And winked.
"Wait! Why are you winking?" Abigail asked and turned to me, "What are you thinking that she's giving you a wink?"
"Oh, you don't have to worry darling. This is just bonding between a mother-in-law and her son-in-law."
"Why do I get the feeling that's worse for me?"
I ignore Abigail's suspicion and say, "I know this is a bizarre question to say."
"It's okay, I can do bizarre."
"Okay, first of all you're cute." She smiled at that. "Even with what happened before I somehow can't ignore that."
"It's alright, if possible, compliment me more." Abigail fumed seeing what I was saying.
"And secondly… what's the first biggest combo?" I had a serious look which she understood and had the same.
"It's the submissive mother-daughter package."
'Bang!'
I felt my heart being penetrated by those words. This woman… she understands it!
'Damn! How can the demon queen be so fucking cute! It's impossible!'
"Hooo… so you know who I am." Hysteria said as a whiff of chaotic energy spread from her. "Knowing who I am and impregnating my daughter… you know I should curve out your soul and damn it for eternity as punishment."
Instantly her dark phase vanished as she blushed and covered her cheeks, "But since you're calling me cute, I can forgive you for this."
"What! Cute?!" Abigail sprang up in anger. She immediately grabbed my collar and started shaking me, "How can you deliberately flirt with my mother, right in front of me!"
As Abigail shook me and Hysteria blushed like that, I only had one thought.
'How did I get caught in this mess?'
…
After getting that out of our system, we finally calmed down.
When I say we, I meant Abigail. She wasn't fully calm but enough to not scream insanities at me.
"Henry"
I hear Hysteria calling and look, "You have a lot of questions. Ask them, we will try to answer as much as possible."
I nod, "First question… Are you going to kill me?" It was the big question.
"Well… that depends,"
'Depends?!'
Hysteria laughed, "I'm just joking, Haha. But all in truth, I see that you're a nice guy. You love my daughter and she loves you so I don't see any reason to kill you… unless you give me a reason to."
I nod again, keeping that last word in mind.
"I understand that what we did down the hallway was you testing me… and did you test other people too?"
Hysteria shook her head, "Not like that no, but I did form a test with greed as the point."
"Seeing no one here other than me, I suppose Abigail chose quite the losers before right?" I say as Abigail felt it attack hit her.
"Yes, that right. So you can guess my surprise that the person she gave her virginity too and got pregnant, turned out to be soo nice."
"Nice?..." I almost laugh, "I'm pretty sure, having other girls on the side and still loving Abigail at the same time isn't nice."
"But you admit that and feel guilty about it. Furthermore, you love my daughter immensely… more than the other women in your life." Abigail at that puffed her large chest in proud.
"The men she found before…" Hysteria's face frowned as she remembered the past, "All just wanted to have sex, money and power. Sure, some of them had good intentions… but they were all too pussies."
"Oh?" I eat the cooked lamb that somehow teleported in front of me, "You mean the typical, I will save the princess above the castle and kill demon stuff?"

"Exactly!" She joined her hand in enjoyment, "You get me right? But she didn't back then, she only complained about me not supporting her choice."
"I- I didn't complain… that much." Abigail embarrassingly said.
"You did dear… but it's good to know that you finally found someone suitable." Hysteria gave a strained smile, "If only your sister would forget her past."
Abigail sighed, "Don't talk about her like that… you know she liked that guy. You shouldn't have killed him so cruelly."
"I had no choice, the thing your sister chose wanted to end our bloodline daughter… and he was close too." Hysteria's frown didn't leave as she remembered some painful memories.
I decide to butt in right now to soften the moment, "You have a sister too?"
Abigail smiled and nodded, "Yes, I don't think I told you about her before."
"Nope… now that I think about it, you told me all of your family members died long ago."
"Wh- Why did you-"
"Abi…" Hysteria's voice came out as loving to her, but her look said the opposite, "Is that true my daughter?"
"Mo- Mother… I couldn't tell him about you back then…" She whispered the words, "If I did, he would have long left."
'That's your defence?' X2
Both of us think that before I remember something, "So what happened to the other romeo's-"
"We never went above Kissing!"
I ignore her, "So where are they? Are they dead and under some catacomb or did you guys collect and froze them?"
"No no, that would take space to put them, we just killed and eat them at special times."
"But none of them were sheep, right." I jokingly say.
"…"
"…Right?"
…
After another awkward moment, I ask Hysteria about the baby.
"So Demon quee-"
"Just call me Hysteria, no no, Call me Mother-In-Law. That seems much better."
My pale face didn't change, "Mother-in-law… what can you tell about our baby?"
"Well, it's an amazing thing." Hysteria smiled as she looked at Abigail's stomach. "I didn't think that Abigail had it in her to preserve the bloodline. But as soon as I heard about it, I left all my work and came just to see it and my son-in-law."
"That's not… Abigail."
Abigail asked in place of me, "Mother, we want to know what the child would be like?"
"I'm a vampire and Henry's a human. A child combined with our line… what should we expect?"
"Hmm…" Hysteria smile wiped away again. "From what I know, there have only been two children born with such fusion."
"The first one was a mistake that should have been killed at the start. It not only ate its own mother but became a monster that I never heard of before. No magic or spell can turn it into a sane being.
"What about the second one?" I ask, already knowing who it was.
"The second was a mistake too… this one didn't turn into a vampire nor was it a complete human. A Hybrid standing at the bridge of both worlds and because of its past, it now roams the world, killing both kind with zero purpose."
"But your child could be different."
"So it can be a normal child?" Abigail asked, hoping for a positive answer.
"Yes, it can… or the opposite can happen too."
"And because of my blood, it might even become something completely beyond our understanding or control."
