Chapter 647 - A Deeply Bonded Companion (2/2)

Along with the fall of Cintra Kingdom, they both lost their identities as princesses. However, Cirilla was finally tasting the freedom she had craved for so long!

The sisters bonded more closely than ever. They outran the Nilfgaardian sentries while sneaking away from the raiders as they pillaged a nearby village.

Olivia’s “instinct” kept the sentries off their trail, yet it was Cirilla’s strength that cut a path through the raiders. Olivia’s magic ability was still sealed shut.

While fighting the raiders, Cirilla acted as a dependable elder for her sister. She became cold and cunning and butchered the raiders single-handedly. Every time she ripped off the limbs of a raider, the game slowed down. What a breathtaking display of slo-mo!

Cirilla and her sister traveled along the river until they came upon a forest. Within the two weeks of hiding in the forest, they trained their survival skills on their own.

It was difficult living in the forest. They were once princesses of Cintra with ample food and beautiful dresses. Now, they were like beggars dressed in rags.

Cirilla cared little about her appearance. However, when she gazed upon her adorable sister’s worn clothing, her heart wept.

Cirilla was touched by her sister’s help. Olivia took care of the fishing and cooking, while also patching up Cirilla’s dresses and the laundry. She did all the housekeeping.

It had to be Olivia’s love for her sister that drove her to pick up such skills. Little that Cirilla know that Olivia had merely borrowed a certain character card’s skills. These were all Xu Jing’s fundamental skills. Xu Jing was not only the best student, she took care of her entire family.

Every night they hugged each other to sleep. With her sister in her arms, Cirilla found all the strength she needed!

After a while, the duo spent a month with a group of fugitives and moved towards the north. Everybody was starving.

Cirilla would always make sure that her sister had something to eat even, if she had none for herself. Olivia had once contracted a high fever due to water shortage. Cirilla had cut her wrists to feed her sister.

Cirilla had been absolutely disappointed at that moment and blamed herself for the illness her sister suffered. Though she gave most of her food to her sister, her sister somehow managed to supply her some reddish potions. After drinking those potions, she felt rejuvenated and never fell sick again.

Cirilla did not think much of the “Red Potion.” As some of the fugitives started to die from a plague and her sister fell ill at the same time, she realized that it was her sister who gave her the will to stay alive!

How does one strengthen a bond between two people? Place them in a situation where they had to depend on each other to survive. They would never hesitate to sacrifice themselves for the well-being of another.

Once again, Xu Jing has found her Yang Xixi in this world. Cirilla would never disappoint Olivia.

Olivia tasted the blood of Cirilla. She finally figured out the secret behind “Elder’s Blood”!
