Child from the Dungeon

Chapter 72: Grounded

As Duncan and baby Adria were sleeping, Irina decides to leave them in her room as she wants to see Donovan in his room.

*KNOCK KNOCK*

" Who's that? " Donovan asks.

" It's me, your mom, Donnie...!!! "

" What? Who's who? " Donovan asks.

" It's me, your mother!!! "

" What? " Donovan says it again and as he says that very question, Irina begins to get on her very nerves.

" Oh really now, boy...? " Irina says with a slow growl in her tone.

" Are you really that deaf after your dad shouts all of his shock and anger upon you? " Irina says as she prepares her fist.

" Fine then, Donny... "

" Don't blame mommy for this, okay? " Irina says as she then punched the very door with her punch which shocks Donovan.

" What the hell!!!!? " Donovan is using his Headset as while learning from his laptop in his room.

As he opens his headset, he then sees his door being broken and he then sees the most nightmarish thing he ever fears in his entire life.

" Mo..., Mom...? " Donovan stutter as he sees Irina enters his room with her usual scary smile.

" Hello there, dear... " Irina says to Donovan as she horrifyingly approaches him.

During her approach, Donovan can only feel fear and horror that he even doesn't even consider increasing his very body's status or even using one of his Buffs in order to have some dominance for a bit in this very stressful situation.

But instead, his fear over Irina's pressure really stunned him hell for he was in the most shocking situation he ever faced with Irina.

" Mo-, Mom... " Donovan says to Irina during her approach.

" Yes, Donnie? "

" You seemed to have been enjoying yourself in your room, or should I say that you're enjoying yourself too much that you can't even hear mommy asking you permission to enter your room."

" And also, Donnie,... "

" Didn't I tell you to never cover both of your ears while using that headset? " Irina asks as he sees Donovan cover both of his ears with the headset which is something that Irina very hates from Donovan since when covering both ears with it, Donovan will be inside of his own world as he ignores the noise outside his room.

As Irina says that, Donovan immediately cowers before her and opens his headset as he begs Irina for mercy for Donovan is horrified greatly by Irina's very dominating aura that she leaked without any concerning control as he makes the atmosphere inside Donovan's room to be heavy which also affects Donovan.

" Grrkk Mom... " Donovan says.

"( Oh no, mom's at it again... )"

"( I don't know why but based on what dad said about her, mom's Dragon Curse is not currently stable after she gave birth to Adria which is the very moment where the Dragon Curse was at the strongest moment of its instability. ) "

" Grkk Mom!!!! " Donovan says as he realizes that it seems his mother's Dragon Curse had become unstable right now as it begins to leak more and constantly changes the room's atmosphere.

As it happens, Donovan then decides to release Aether Energy to counter her pressure and as he does that, his body begins to lighten as he then tries to fight back his mother's Dragon Curse Aura during that very time, Donovan then shouts at Irina using his Aether Imbued Voice that he utilizes to awaken his mother from her unstable magic enhanced emotions.

" MOM!!! " Donovan says while utilizing the [Aether Echo] Skill.

< Skill: [Aether Echo] (Active) -- LVL.1 >

< This skill requires 100 AP to perform, this skill also allows the User to Trigger Snap Effect, the Effect that can Snap the Stunned back to reality. >

...

< Snap Failed >

"( It doesn't work!? )" Donovan says as he then charges his [Aether Echo]

< [Charge]: One of the ways to perform the Aether Echo skill, with this the User can charge their Echo in order to increase the Snap Effect Power. >

*Inhales heavily*

"( Here goes... ) " Donovan says as he charges his voice with the Aether.

"{ MOM !!!!!! }" Donovan says as he uses the Charged [Aether Echo] and that skill is now effective since the Snap Effect is now inflicted upon his mom which made her snap from her enhanced emotion aura.

" Huh? " Irina wakes from her anger which immediately shocks her after seeing the damage she's done to Donovan's room.

" Donny? " Irina asks.

" What happened? " Irina says which is immediately interrupted by Duncan who suddenly awakens from his sleep again.

As he comes over to the place, he then sees Donovan holding his mom as he pats her on the back as Irina's back is getting hurt for the Dragon Curse still activates.

" Dad, mom is... "

" I know!!! " Duncan immediately approached Irina as he performs the Sealing over her which made her return to normal again as the Dragon Curse Leak finally dissipates.

After it dissipates, Irina then stands up and says sorry to Donovan for being too emotional with him, probably because she hasn't seen him for some time after giving birth to Adria at that time which emotionally affects her as she also cared so much about Donovan.

" I'm sorry Donny, Mom didn't mean it. " Irina says while crying as she curses herself for letting her Dragon Curse destabilize her emotions as she also regrets for even trying to hurt him with her power.

" I'm sorry if my Dragon Curse made me hurt you. " Irina says her regrets while Donovan and Duncan pat her at the time in order to calm her down.

" It's alright mom, you didn't even get too close to me at the time. "

" I managed to stand strong in front of you. " Donovan says to Irina which makes him get a hush from Duncan as he found Donovan to be rude but Irina lets it as her emotions get calmer after hearing those words.

" I see, then mommy is relieved... " she says while hugging Donovan as she still cries in regret of her actions which she took it deeply as it seems the Dragon Curse always affects her emotion more when she is thinking about Donovan.

As she cries, Duncan then leaves the two for he tells them that he will ask Vector to help him fix Donovan's door while he tells Donovan to stay in the room and don't go outside until he can make sure that his mother is calmed down.

" Mom... " Donovan says.

" Mommy's alright Donny, it's just... "

" Mommy is so happy that during mommy's anger, mommy didn't get to harm you with my Ground Magic. " Irina says to Donovan as she was in her relieved state after her enhanced emotional times.

Extra:

Irina's Dragon Curse affects her emotion greatly when it was triggered, the trigger could be anything, and sometimes the trigger could be unnoticed and just appear like that without any further explanations.

And also, Irina's Dragon Curse somehow always activates immediately without any notice while she is thinking about Donovan which is the most mysterious thing that she herself doesn't know why it happened.
