Royal Secret: I'm A Princess!

Chapter 534



Chapter 534: ROAAAR!!!

“DID NERO already leave?”

“Yes, Mama Boss,” Neoma said while her eyes were busy choosing among the variety of snacks on the tea table. “He just went here to piss me off…” She bit her lower lip, then she raised her head to meet her mother’s beautiful light blue eyes. “Sorry, Mama Boss. I shouldn’t curse in front of the food, right?”

Her Papa Boss, who was sitting next to her mother while having tea, scoffed. “Since when did you care about that? You curse straight to my face, and you’ve been doing that since you were five years old.”

“Three,” she corrected her father. “I was three years old when I first cursed at you, Papa Boss.”

Her Papa Boss froze, and he looked really shocked by her revelation.

Neoma slowly avoided her father’s accusing gaze. Somehow, her conscience was poking her a bit. Just a little bit.

[In my defense, Papa Boss acted like a scumbag back then.]

…..

Anyway, right now, she was having tea with her parents.

Their family was supposed to move into the Solfrid Estate. But since Nero had summoned her parents back, her Mama Boss and Papa Boss decided to spend their last day in the East Continent in the temple. Unfortunately, it was time for her to leave with her “children.”

It was a shame since her Mama Boss and Papa Boss would do some sightseeing later before they leave. She actually wanted to go with them since this was her first time on the East Continent. However, she had a job to do that she couldn’t reschedule.

[You should be honored I’m paying this much attention to you, Rubin Drayton.]

Anyway, her evil thoughts were interrupted when her Mama Boss laughed softly.

[Ah, Mama Boss’s laugh is healing. She looks angelic, she sounds angelic, and she does angelic things since she’s so kind. Heck, what happened to me? Why do I look like the devil’s spawn when my mother is this angelic?!]

Oh, wait.

She knew why she ended up that way.

[Right, my father is Papa Boss.]

“Well, at first, I was startled when I heard you curse,” her Mama Boss confessed. “But I got used to it. Although you are physically young, I’m aware that you are an adult mentally and emotionally. Moreover, I know that you don’t curse innocent people. That’s enough for me.”

She put a hand over her chest, touched by her mother’s kindness. “Mama Boss, saranghaeyo.”

“Oh, what does it mean again?”

She grinned cheekily. “Secret!”

For now. .

She had already said ‘I love you’ to her parents. But even though she was already an adult who knew that she shouldn’t be embarrassed by showing affection to her family, she would still get shy.

[I mean, I’m used to hearing confessions and not the other way around.]

Gosh, her arrogance, really…

Her Papa Boss cleared his throat to get their attention.

Ah, thankfully, her father had already gotten over the fact that his daughter had been cursing at him since she was three years old.

“Anyway, did Nero say anything else aside from picking a fight with you?” Papa Boss asked, changing the topic. “He didn’t come here in his Spirit form just to see your face personally, did he?”

“My love, we’re talking about Nero here,” Mama Boss said, chuckling. “Would you put it past him to travel to another continent just to see his precious twin sister?”

“Ah, right,” her father agreed, nodding. “That sounds like something Nero would totally do regardless of the consequences.”

[Gosh, I can’t even defend Nero because Mama Boss and Papa Boss are just spitting facts.]

So, for her twin brother’s honor, she decided to change the topic. They had some important things that they needed to discuss anyway.

“Mama Boss, Papa Boss, Nero actually came here to inform me about the surprise that he prepared for us,” she said. “But I didn’t ask him if I can tell you about it, so I’ll just keep my mouth shut in the meantime.”

“It’s fine, Neoma,” her Mama Boss said. “To be honest with you, your father and I have an idea about what Nero’s surprise is anyway.”

Oh?

“He retrieved the Emperor’s Decree for the Royal Family, didn’t he?” her Papa Boss asked. “Nero mentioned it to me before, so I have a feeling that he got us for us.”

“You’re wrong,” she said, surprising both her mother and father. “Nero said he didn’t retrieve it for the Royal Family- he retrieved it for ME.”

“Ah,” her Mama Boss and Papa Boss said without even batting an eyelash.

[They look like they’re already so used to Nero’s obsession with me…]

Gosh, she was embarrassed for some reason.

“The next thing I’m about to say might shock you, though,” she said, then pausing for a moment for some dramatic effect. “Mama Boss, Papa Boss, do you know that Nero gained a GOD as a “weapon?””

[Yep, that’s the reaction that I want to see.]

Her parents looked as shocked as she was when Ruto said that Nero’s new “weapon” was a god and not a Spirit.

“A god?” her Mama Boss asked, covering her mouth with her hands. “Did Nero inherit my ability?”

Huh?

Wait, what?

“Why do you look confused, Neoma?” her Papa Boss asked. “Don’t you already know that your mother can borrow the gods’ power?”

Really?

Well, her big brain was filled with so much information that she would sometimes forget things that weren’t directly related to her.

Anyway, this confirmed that Nero was really more of a Roseheart than a de Moonasterio.

[Gosh, he’s really the boy who has everything except sanity.]

She clenched her hands tight. Of course, she didn’t hate Nero. But her competitive spirit was ignited by her twin brother’s new achievement.

[My perfect twin brother pisses me off.]

“Baby Muffin, do you happen to know what kind of god Nero made a contract with?” her Mama Boss asked worriedly. “Gods can be tricky most of the time, so I’m afraid our Baby Pumpkin might have been deceived.”

“Mama Boss, it’s the other way around,” she said. “We should worry about the god that Nero made a contract with. They’re probably being scammed by my twin brother as we speak.”

Papa Boss clicked his tongue. “Why did my children grow up as scammers?”

Mama Boss glared at Papa Boss. “Don’t call my babies ‘scammers.’ They’re just doing what they have to in order to survive.”

“Right,” Papa Boss said, and he looked genuinely scared of Mama Boss. “I misspoke. I won’t call our children “scammers” again.”

Her mother looked pleased.

Neoma, on the other hand, got goosebumps.

[Gosh, seeing your parents flirt in front of you is so cringey.]

“Dear parents, I don’t vibe with the god that Nero is working with.”

Her parents looked confused by her choice of words, so she explained.

“I mean, I don’t like them,” she explained in simpler words. “They felt ominous. Moreover, I feel like they’re messing with Nero’s head.”

“Gods do that,” her Mama Boss said worriedly. “Some of the gods that I worked with in the past tried to drive me insane since they wanted to possess my body. As you already know, strong gods aren’t allowed to descend anymore. Hence, some of them would resort to “borrowing” human bodies. But if a god possessed a human’s body, their host would go insane. However, only powerful gods have the ability to do that.”

“That means Nero is working with a powerful god,” Papa Bosss aid. And he sounded a bit proud of Nero. “As expected of our son.”

[Ah, Ruto is right when he said Nero’s god might be powerful.]

“Don’t worry, Mama Boss,” she assured her mother. “Nero said that he can control the god and not the other way around. However, I’m telling you about this because we need to keep an eye on my twin brother. I can tell that his Lunacy phase isn’t over yet.”

“We’ll do that,” Papa Boss promised her. “Neoma, do you really have to go now?”

“That’s right,” her Mama Boss added. “Why don’t you come home with us first? The place you’re headed to is a dangerous zone. I’m worried that you might get hurt, Baby Muffin.”

“Well, there’s a strong reason why I need to go to the Lawless Jungle, dear parents.”

Of course, Rubin Drayton wasn’t the only reason why she needed to go to that dangerous place. She wouldn’t risk her life for that punk.

“The Lawless Jungles is apparently the home of Kingston, the White Lion.”

Her parents looked surprised by her revelation.

“The White Lion is currently owned by Calyx Dalton,” she explained further. “And there’s a crow in the Lawless Jungle at the moment. Mama Boss, Papa Boss, do you know what I think?”

“You’re thinking that there might be a reason why the crows are in the Lawless Jungle,” her Papa Boss said seriously. “Perhaps, you’re thinking that the crows have forcefully taken the White Lion from its home?”

“That’s right, Papa Boss.”

“Neoma, I know that Lady Roxana asked you to retrieve the White Lion from the crows,” her Mama Boss said carefully. “But why do you need to head to the White Lion’s home if the White Lion is currently with Calyx Dalton?”

“There must be a reason why the crows are still at the Lawless Jungle. I just want to fuck them up,” Neoma said, then she acted like a roaring lion. “It’s time they have a taste of Neoma’s Sweet Revenge.”

Roooaaarrr!
