Callista remained silent for several moments.
The transformation had clearly affected her.
Her breathing sounded uneven.
Her voice emerged distant and strained when she finally spoke, "I am indeed the daughter of Lysander Frost and Arianna Frost."
Juren's eyes widened.
"Impossible. How could you be a daughter of my master? This is not a beast transformation from the bloodline. I could sense the Emperor's aura from you. You are not a human. You are just like me… A demigod realm Beast Emperor with the ability to become a human at will… But how is it possible? I watched you born, I watched you grow up…"
He roared. "Where is the real Callista?"
Callista slowly lifted her head and answered calmly. "That's because my mother was never human, Juren."
The words struck harder than any attack.
"Just like me."
The wind howled softly through the ruined battlefield.
For several moments, neither spoke.
Then Callista continued.
"My mother was the Blizzard Pegasus."
