Harem Stealer: Reborn with the God-Tier Sharing System-Chapter 237:…I am sorry
Chapter 237: Chapter 237:...I am sorry
Chapter 237 – ...I am sorry
Noah’s anger was palpable.
He was so furious that all of Laeh responded to his rage—the entire world seemed to drown beneath a crimson sky, thick with ominous, furious energy.
And it wasn’t just him.
Every other woman in the room mirrored Noah’s emotions perfectly—but for some of them, their reactions were... strange.
They looked lost. Confused.
Selene, Luminara... and of course, Ester.
These three were the most subdued, their expressions frozen as they stared at Sari with blank eyes, their minds refusing—unable—to process what she had just revealed.
Or maybe... they simply didn’t want to believe it.
Because accepting that truth would mean accepting that...
Their shadow.
Their friend.
Their mother.
Had been raped, deep inside the shadow realm, while they remained blissfully unaware—living their best lives in Laeh or minding their own business within a casino.
They didn’t want to believe any of that.
But they had no choice.
Because when they looked at the small, gentle smile on Sari’s face, something inside them broke.
Ester stammered as she took hesitant steps toward her mother, her voice small and trembling.
"M-mother...?" she called out, fear twisting her features, irrational thoughts beginning to spiral—Am I even worthy of calling her that anymore?
Guilt clawed at her. Guilt for not being there. Guilt for not sensing anything. Guilt for everything.
It was nonsensical and illogical.
But that was what she was feeling.
Sari saw her daughter’s expression and understood her thoughts without needing to hear them.
She reached out and pulled Ester gently into a warm, protective embrace.
"I’m okay," Sari whispered softly.
But those words shattered Ester even more.
She cried—no, she wept—as if she had just lost the most precious thing in her life.
Her mother had been raped.
Her mother... her mother...
The more those thoughts repeated in her mind, the more chaotic Ester’s aura became.
Her form started to flicker wildly—shifting, breaking, reforming—as if she was becoming multiple beings at once, unable to maintain her shape, unable to process the reality that someone had dared to violate her mother.
Her aura lashed out, causing the entire White Castle to tremble beneath its weight.
But Noah and the others didn’t care about the damage.
Noah even less so.
Right now, he was using every ounce of restraint not to rush into the Shadow Realm and erase everything that lived there.
How dare someone touch what was his?
It was Laeh before. And now... it was Sari. His mother-in-law.
What’s next?
"WHAT’S FUCKING NEXT?!"
BOOOOOOM!
Laeh trembled violently. The sky began to fracture like glass. Pieces of the world cracked apart. Beings—strong and weak alike—began to die.
Across the world, every living thing...
Whether human, Elysari, or simple beast—
Fell to their knees, heads pressed against the ground, crying, praying, begging,
"Oh, Absolute! The One Who Is All and Has All—please, calm your wrath!"
They wanted The Absolute to calm down.
But Noah didn’t want that.
None of them wanted that.
Instead... they all wanted war.
"What are we waiting for?" Selene asked, her voice colder than it had ever been in her life.
Someone had dared to touch her shadow?
Even death would be too merciful.
"This time... I will participate," Luminara said, her voice echoing through the room, just as cold and filled with murderous resolve.
One by one, the other girls began to speak. Their eyes burned with fury, their expressions twisted with rage, and their auras... they were beginning to tear the White Castle apart.
Sari stood in the middle of it all, holding her ever-shifting daughter in her arms, a soft smile on her lips.
She looked at these women who were now brimming with bloodlust—ready to go to war for her, to destroy anything that dared hurt her.
And then... she looked at Noah.
His face was expressionless. Not a single hint of anger on his features.
But Sari could sense it. She raised her head and looked at the sky above Laeh—how it cracked like fractured glass.
"I’m fine," she said quietly.
She paused.
"I’m really fine," she repeated, a little louder.
"I’ve already killed her... so there’s nothing left to do," she added, smiling softly.
"But thank you. Thank you all for reacting like this. Thank you for caring about me... thank you for not forgetting me—because sometimes, even I forget myself."
"Thank you..."
Her voice was heavy. Filled with emotions she didn’t even know she had.
She had never believed she mattered this much.
To her, she was just Selene’s shadow. A background piece. Not someone these strong, powerful, beautiful women would ever care for.
But she had been wrong.
And that was enough to lift her mood. Enough to restore her spirit.
She held her daughter tighter, whispering into her ear.
"Calm down, my dear. Your mother is not some weak woman. I killed her myself."
She gently lifted Ester’s face.
Ester’s cheeks were soaked, tears still streaming endlessly. Her eyes were filled with pain—but more than that, with rage. Deep, pure rage.
Sari shook her head softly.
"Don’t. It’s over. Aren’t you proud of your mother? You should be. After all now... you’d better be on your guard, because I’m pretty sure I can beat you."
"So stop thinking about unnecessary revenge, and focus on becoming whole, my dear," she said lovingly as she began wiping away the tears on Ester’s face.
Ester gave a faint, reluctant nod.
But there was one person who didn’t agree.
"Unnecessary vengeance...?" Noah’s voice echoed, sharp and cold as he rose slowly from his throne and walked toward Sari.
"There is no such thing as unnecessary vengeance, Mother-in-law."
"Someone dared to touch you... and that someone will not walk away freely."
"But—!"
Sari tried to speak, but Noah interrupted.
"You didn’t kill her properly. Tell me... did you destroy her soul?"
Sari hesitated.
She hadn’t.
She couldn’t.
Even killing her physically had pushed her to the brink of death. As for truly ending her—ending her soul?
She lacked the means.
So she stayed silent.
Noah stepped forward—just an inch away from her—and then slowly embraced them both, Ester and Sari, holding them tightly in his arms.
They closed their eyes, feeling comfort sweep over them like a warm, invisible blanket.
"Congratulations on taking your own revenge, Sari. Congratulations on killing a divine while still being mortal."
He chuckled softly. But it was a chuckle filled with subtle anger and sadness.
"Something even I haven’t done yet."
"But let me finish what you started. Let me kill that being’s entire bloodline. Let me take her soul and torture her for eternity and beyond."
"Let me show the world... that no one touches what’s mine without consequences."
He paused.
"...Let me."
"And..."
"...I’m sorry." frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
