《Empress' Evolution》51. Revenge Story MC

Sylva had led an unsavory life.
When she was but a child, she was taken away from her supposed family and was groomed to become a sacrificial tool.
In the place where other Silberofers were taken Sylva met a girl who became her friend. They lived together smiling and laughing trying to forget the eventual demise.
Until one they they sought after their own light, running away, escaping from the path of death..
They ran and ran, not stopping no matter what happened, holding each other's hand seeking comfort and courage from one another..
They managed to run ffar but her friend was caught by their pursuers. And as her friend got dragged back, Sylva escaped.
Sylva cried, running from her pursuers.
She felt guilt from doing uch an atrocious act, but the thing that haunts her the most was not Sela's voice cursing her, but the sweet and soft smile she flashed as she was about to be taken away.
"Go... live for the both of us!"
When Sylva ran, she didn't turn back, she knew if she did she would risk her all just for a failed attempt, Sela's sacrifice would be in vain. She completed Sela's wishes, but to this day, Sylva could still hear Sela as if it was just yesterday, echoing if trying to devour her mind.
She loathed herself and she failed to accept what she had done..
But when Lilith spoke to her, she saw a glimpse of hope. That illusion did not last long, however, as she felt a familiar presence.
A presence belonging to her friend, the soul of her friend still lives, not yet devoured by another person.
Sylva found a chance to save her friend, and without hestiation she drew her sword.
She tried to kill the one who took Sela, even when Dhampy tried to stop her, Sylva rushed in to take Luna's life.
When she came to, Sylva finally realized actions; that she had once again caused a tragic mistake.

She had attacked the people who accepted he.
Irrationality and the desire for forgiveness once more drove her to do such an ugly act. She was forgiven, again, but with her trembling body, Sylva knew the weight of her sin.
I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!.......
The child's fears of abandonment surfaced like a tide. She was was about to crumble!
Badump! Badump! Badump! She wished to die to atone for what she did, but in end, the words of Lilith and the memories of Sela stopped her.
When she opened her eye, a dark path was to her right. She didn't care about it when she was on a rampage, but right now that she paid attention to it, the loss of her sight would take a while to getting used to.
Thinking about it, she even lost her eyes due to her stupidity. She rushed in to fight when she should have retreated. The result of her rash actions was losing an eye; it was a pretty messed up situation.
"Such foolishness, I have been doing nothing but foolish things."
Tears escaped her as she began to feel worse than before. She was a child, it was understandable for her to blunder once in a while, but with Lilith on the helm leading her and so many others, Sylva could not help but feel bad for what she had done.
"I'm so useless."
Tears fell as she clutched the fur giving her warmth.
"It seems like you're all right if you time to worry about such things, Sylva."
To Sylva's surprise, a childish voice reached her ears from the right. She quickly turned her head and saw Lilith sitting on the ground with folded arms. As soon as she saw Lilith she quickly moved as she sat up as quickly as possible.

"Boss head, I-I didn't know you were there."
"Don't worry about it, just act naturally and don't be too nervous. I'm not here to criticize you or anything. I am here to check if you are alright."
That sweet and gentle smile put Sylva at ease almost immediately. But it also ignited the feeling of guilt for her outburst the last time she was awake.
"I'm so…"
"Don't apologize, Sylva. You already did that. You didn't cause any major trouble so do not apologize to me anymore. What I want to hear is your answer to my question, are you okay?"
Lilith asked while reaching out to wipe away the tears from Sylva's face.
"…I am fine now, thanks to you Priestess."
"That is good. But I am not just here to check up on you, I am also here for something else…Dhampy."
As Lilith called out to Dhampy, two figures walked into the room and Sylva's face changed quickly. She moved her hand got her daggers from the dimensions she created to keep her stuff.
And as her temper got the best of her again, she disappeared from where she sat and reappeared the next instant behind Luna. Her eyes had already turned red from rage…
"DIE!"
Clang!
However, Dhampy got in the way as she jumped backward to intercept Sylva's attack! The shockwave of their collision caused the roof of the house to be blown away by a massive gust of wind.
"SYLVA!"
Lilith's angered voice caused Sylva to reawaken from her rage. Her eyes that had dyed red from the anger that filled her heart began to wane and she remembered herself and instantly calmed down.
Her self-loathing only grew as she remembered what she was doing and yet she felt a mix of guilt and a sense of wrong. She wants to kill the daemon before her for she wants to free the soul of her friend that lingers with her.
Sylva wish to kill Luna, but she also did not want to disappoint Lilith, it was contradictory of emotion, the clashes in her heart are not something shallow, she wishes to continue. She was conflicted and torn.
In the end, she could only bite her lips until it bled.
When Lilith saw this, she could only sigh. She could see where she was coming from, but she can't just let Sylva kill Luna. Not only will Luna's death incite doubt in her character, but it was also because she has some uses, still.
"Sylva, I know why you are so angry at her. From what I can gather, it must be Sela, right?"
"She has her soul! I have to free her soul."
Sylva's words were strong, it echoed in the hearts of those could hear causing them to feel her grief.
[I am detecting hints of mind energy from Sylva, I think her instability is awakening something inside her. She's a new species so I have no information on her, be careful. As for the validity of her claims... I think Luna does indeed have remnants of Sela's soul, though I can't say for sure because she's not your follower.]
Lilith listened to Alpha, and as she looked at Sylva she sighed once again.
"Sigh, I know it is painful, but are you sure her soul is trapped inside her?"
"I can feel her presence, that must be the case!"
"No Sylva, that's not it, you can feel Sela's presence because she is now one with Luna. If you kill her, isn't it like killing Sela as well?"
Sylva grew silent.
"Sigh, this is not going to work, so, I will be postponing this talk until we figure things out. You two will talk later, but for now, Sylva, I need you to work together with Luna."
"WHAT!?"
That was the first time Sylva raised her voice to Lilith.
