The Villainess Redeems Herself, The Beast Husbands are in a Daily Love Battle-Chapter 72: Facing Reality

She stood in the center of the courtyard, her hands tightly clasped over her chest.

The wind brushed through her long hair, lifting a few strands, yet unable to take away the heavy weight in her heart.

She gazed at the empty sky, as if she could still hear the echoes of the departing spaceship.

Beside her stood Ethan and Ethan, both pale-faced and eyes filled with panic.

The brothers stood side by side, their bodies stiff.

There was no communication between them, but the same fear was written on their faces.

Ethan’s lips trembled slightly, Ethan’s pupils kept contracting.

Their ears were slightly pressed back, the inherent alertness and unease of their Beastman bloodline.

They had never witnessed such a scene.

In their memory, Father had always been gentle, Mother’s most cherished companion.

Every day there was spiritual calm, how could he suddenly lose control?

Why would Dad become like this?

Scenes from childhood flashed back one after another.

Father sitting in the garden’s wicker chair reading, sunlight spilling on his blond hair, smiling gently.

Mother bringing refreshments, gently leaning on his shoulder, whispering softly to each other.

At night, Father using a low chant to calm them to sleep.

Such a father, how could he turn into a madman consumed by beastly instincts?

Who broke that silence?

Ethan lacked his usual vigor.

He was completely frozen there, like a lost little child.

"Hasn’t Mom always stayed by Dad’s side? Why would Dad suddenly go mad? Did Mom abandon Dad?"

His voice was choked with sobs.

He recalled how Mother recently returned home less often, Father’s smile slowly fading.

Could it be...

Could it be Mother really didn’t love Father anymore?

Did she feel Father was old, no longer strong enough, and chose indifference?

Ethan quickly glanced at Selene Kane, then turned his head away.

"Females, they’re the easiest to change heart. I heard Mom recently took in a new Beast Husband, odds are that guy’s behind everything, stirring up their relationship, causing Dad to completely lose control."

His tone was sharp, his words carrying strong sarcasm and resentment.

He dared not look Selene Kane in the eye, yet couldn’t help but project his inner doubts onto her.

Mother’s new Beast Husband, that mysterious male, is said to come from a distant Star Sector, possessing rare Spirit Talent.

Was it really him, using some means to invade Father’s spiritual domain?

Or did he use sweet words to beguile Mother, making her distant from her former companion?

Their eyes were chaotic, as if their souls had been emptied.

Fear twisted around their hearts like vines, tightening more and more.

At this very moment, they were just two helpless children.

Facing the sudden collapse of their family, unsure of what to do.

When parents argue, their instinct is to flee.

The guards have just asked them to board the spaceship, but none of them moved.

Escape is an instinctive reaction for young Beastmen.

When parental arguments are intense, energy fluctuations severe, they would curl up in a corner or sneak into a secret room.

But this time, they did not move.

Because they knew it wasn’t just an ordinary argument this time.

It was a disaster that could tear the family apart.

Boarding the spaceship meant leaving home, meant admitting Father was no longer "Father."

They refused to accept this fact.

The true mistress of this home is Mother.

Even if Father loves them dearly, once he loses Mother’s heart, he will eventually turn into an irrational beast.

Mother is the spiritual core of this family, the anchor point sustaining all members’ souls.

As long as she is here, the home remains.

But should she withdraw her affection, lose spiritual connection...

Father’s beastly nature within will surge like a tide, devouring reason, devouring humanity.

Ultimately becoming a mindless monster of destruction.

Selene Kane looked at them in such a state, anger flaring up instantly.

She suddenly turned around, gaze piercing, directly facing the two brothers.

She wasn’t angry at their ignorance.

But angry at their evasion, angry that they didn’t face the truth, instead shifting the blame onto Mother.

"What are you doing now? Why are you hiding?"

She closed in step by step, eyes sharp.

"Your father is in trouble, your mother might be enduring great pain, and what about you? Standing here guessing, recklessly blaming? Is this your filial piety?"

Her brows furrowed, tightly knitted together.

Though her stature was small, her frame delicate, even appearing particularly petite among a group of towering Beast Husbands.

Yet when she spoke, the force was like a storm, almost suffocating.

"You’ve had families for years now, life stable, status not low either, but why at a crucial moment, still like two males, lacking any male backbone?"

"A Beast Husband going mad is rare, after all spiritual power losing control isn’t a trivial matter. But if you’re this scared, not even daring to face it, shivering behind others , then do you still deserve to be called a male? Still worthy to wear beast fur, hold the honor of this bloodline?"

"I don’t keep cowards here. If you want to cry or seek comfort, then go back to Mom. Don’t waste my time, nor make me look down on you."

Ethan’s face was flushed with anger, the veins on his forehead slightly pulsing.

He suddenly stepped forward, voice trembling: "What are you talking about! We’re not scared, we’re worried the situation might spiral out of control and harm you!"

"I’m talking nonsense?"

Selene Kane’s eyes turned cold, lifting her wrist, without hesitation, slapped away the hand he reached out.

The "smack" was loud.

She stared at him, word by word: "Truly bold, have the guts, then come with me inside. Don’t stand here and posture, while actions shrink back. If you don’t dare, then stay away from me, don’t obstruct my view."

The two brothers exchanged a glance, a moment when their eyes met.

They saw the struggle in each other’s eyes, also the dignity and determination aroused.

Unknowingly, they had begun to trust her.

The very woman they once overlooked, underestimated, even viewed as a burden, that Selene Kane they once thought only clung to them, voiced her grievances.

Now she stood at the forefront, becoming their pillar of strength within.

If she were still like before, meekly clinging to them, acting coy for favor, using tears and weakness to seek sympathy.

They might have long turned away in annoyance, already walked away.

But now she was completely different.

She no longer begged for their mercy, nor used emotional entanglements to maintain the relationship.

What she employed was momentum, was resoluteness.

She saw them as real men, not children needing pampering and protection.

They were her Beast Husbands, not children she’s raising.

They were companions fighting alongside her, pillars capable of supporting a home.

She had to view them as males and must let them realize, inherently, they are males.

They took a deep breath.

Then they straightened their backs, following behind Selene Kane, step by step, walked towards the Osborne Family’s castle in the main city.

When they arrived, the situation had already stabilized.

The hall bore no sounds of fighting, no roars or growls, only a death-like silence remained.

Were it not for the debris scattered on the ground, the hideous cracks on the walls, and those deep claw marks on the tiles.

No one would believe a disturbance capable of alarming the entire city just occurred here.

A white tiger with A-level spiritual power had fallen into a rampage.
