Chapter 273: The most gifted child in the history of mankind... (1/2)
HE pulled his body and saw his sister sleeping in the same position she was before. Beside her was his deity, Sistela.
Yman reached his hand to brush her hair. A second later, her head twitched and slowly moved upward.
”B-Brother?” He said in a startled voice. Seeing her reaction, only proved that he was right. ”Yana, your spell was so strong!” He said in excitement with twinkling eyes. Yman knew that his sister had an abundance of mana. But he never thought that she was capable of casting such a spell.
”...”
Yana fell silent for a second from her brother's reaction. Then her face turned to a face that was guilty.
”B-B-Brother… a-are you angry?” She asked him in a quivering low voice.
”...”
”Hehe,” she heard a light chuckle from him. ”Of course, not. Why would I get angry at my cute younger sister… no way that would happen…” he said while maintaining a smile on his face. She glanced at her brother's eyes. Then she sighed in relief after noticing that he was serious. ”S-Sorry, bro, for what I did.” She said with a sunken face.
Sigh.
He sighed.
Then he glanced in her eyes with a serious face. Yman knew that just by saying that he wasn't angry could not abate the guiltiness his sister was feeling at the moment. ”Regardless, can you tell me why you did that?” He said while crossing his arms and raising an eyebrow.
Looking at him, Yana was taken aback. She could feel that he was a little mad at her. In a half-crying face, she opened her mouth. ”B-because, I'm afraid that bro will leave me again…”
”...”
Yman fell silent for a second.
”Silly!”
Flick!
Aw!
He said and flicked her forehead. Yana tapped it out of reflex, to where he flicked her. Although it wasn't a strong flick, it caused pains that could not be ease so easily.
Even Though it was dim inside, the illumination coming from the moon was enough to discern the expression on his face. She saw him in a mad expression. ”Eh?” Yana yelped and sank back. A bead of tear was forming at the sides of her eyes. Especially that it was the first time that she received such treatment from her bro.
Looks like she made him mad at her after all. Yana wanted to cry. No, she was probably holding her tears from bursting.
However, she heard his brother saying, ”There's no way I will do that!”
”Eh?”
She stared at him and saw him shaking his head while caressing it with his hand. ”There's no way I will do that…” he repeated. Then continued, ”If I planned on doing that, I would have never come back here in the first place…” he reached out and caressed her face.
”But…” Yana said while looking straight into his eyes. But she seemed to falter.
”Hmm?” He sought for the continuation of her words.
”Y-you already have some girls that you like... W-When time comes, y-you will leave me regardless…”
”...”
Yman blinked his eyes. Then he sighed. ”Yana…” he called out calmly and his mouth extended to both sides. Seeing her eyes on him, he opened his mouth once again. ”That future is indefinite—-”
”Even though you almost kiss someone?!” She suddenly interjected which made him gawk.
Right. His sister was on the audience podium at that time.
”Ah, it's in the heat of the moment only… hehe, like that…” he said while looking away, trying to scan for a better way to escape from this entanglement. ”And I'm not the one who made the first move… ahem!”
”You like her, right?”
”Eh?”
'How the hell I'm the one being questioned,' he exclaimed inwardly. But seeing her seeking eyes, he sighed once again. ”M-maybe…”
”And you stole a kiss from Miss Rea! Not only that, but you also grope the wolf girls' bo—!”
”Guwah!” Yman fell from the bed with his face hit the floor. ”Y-Yana… h-how did you know that?”
”I can't only interfere with the person's body that under my illusion, I can also peek what's on their minds.”
”The heck! What kind of op ability is that. Unfair you know. Your brother here has to suffer some hell just to get a little stronger.”
