Claiming The Spoils
"Mommy~ I'm going out!" I called out from the door.
"Be careful, my little one~" Mother answered back from the kitchen.
I dashed out of the house and spread my wings, leaping up into the air with a single flap.
After that night, I had lost all my hesitation in recognising her as my mother, something she could tell almost immediately.
Needless to say, she gushed all over me and coddled me excessively after that. Not that I would complain about it anymore.
I half expected Mother to be overprotective of me after that near death experience, but aside from being much more affectionate with me whenever she got the chance, she did not stop me from going out on my own.
That fight gave me quite an awakening as I realised how weak I was compared to everyone else. I'm sure those who have chosen to transmigrate instead of reincarnating here have already used the time they had to grow even stronger.
