Chapter 273: The most gifted child in the history of mankind... (2/2)

Yman wanted to shudder from what he heard from his sister. Probably, her ability could read what her target was thinking while her target was under her illusion. But she could only read what was on their minds when she was peeking into it. And depending on what the target was thinking at that moment, it was the memory she could read from the target.

Maybe that time when he was in hysteria. He thought the almighty creator punished him for doing those bad things. First, whenever, he saw Cinde sleeping he would try to poke and grope her tempting boobs. Well, out of curiosity only. Not for lewding. Actually. Maybe. Perhaps.

The second was that time when he stole a kiss on Rea's face.

Dammit! Having your secret known by your sister was so embarrassing. A white soul came out from his mouth and was being sucked into heaven.

Suddenly,

”Bro, don't change the topic! Humph!” She said in a pout.

Fortunately, though, Yana did not seem to read the part when he was thinking about the demon. Regardless, her ability wasn't good to be known by the masses.

Well, she could also be an agent.

He pulled his body and did a dogeza on the floor. ”Sister, please keep it a secret from everyone until I say my sorry to them!” He said with his head on the floor. Yana sighed and nodded. Good grief. She thought.

Then she saw her brother suddenly turn serious. ”And besides, you're the only family I have. So no matter what happened, I won't leave. There's no way that will happen.”

”P-promise?”

”Mhm! Promise…”

Tears finally fell from her eyes. ”Sorry for my selfishness bro! Waaaah!!!” She jumped and hugged him.

Yman had to comfort her for a couple of hours.

”Uhm, Yana…”

”Ha?”

”I hope you'll never use that ability of yours in a reckless way.”

”Uhmm….”

”I don't want something bad to happen with you again.”

Seeing his eyes, Yana could feel that he was serious.

”O-okay.”

”And also… please don't speak to others about my secret.”

”...”

Looks like it was fine this time not to say a promise. So that she could use it against her brother whenever he tried to do something again she disliked. Nonetheless, she trusted him. After all, she could feel that her brother was different from an ordinary person. She wondered what happened to him after the two of them were separated.

That time she broke her mana container after discharging super-dense mana. She did it to help him from their parents, who tried to sell her brother to those people.

Their parents were former Magic Soldiers working under the government. At first, they lived so happily. But everything had changed when their parents became addicted to gambling. They started doing illegal means and even went to the extent of repeatedly hurting their children. Her brother would come to take all the beating just to exclude her. They were just children at that time. Their bones weren't strong enough to handle the beating of their parents.

There came a time when she saw her brother faint and blood was gushing out of his mouth, nose, eyes, and even ears. He was so weak and she knew that he was on the verge of dying.

Luckily, her strong desire to save him enabled her to awaken her mana much earlier. She was able to save him.

She was recorded as the most gifted child in the history of mankind. The first child who awakened her mana earliest among the rest. Her name was even recorded in the Book of Extraordinary Feats.

Her parents were so proud of her. They looked at her like they were looking at the most expensive jewel in the world.

She was happy, because of it they would stop hurting her brother anymore. But she was wrong. She was naive. Yeah, they stopped beating him. But they excluded him from the family. Especially when the day of celebration that was known as the Turning Point or also known as The Awaking Month. It was a full month celebration. Where children who were yet to awaken would do some light training. The goal of it was to awaken the children.

She was excited for her brother.

However, after a month, when most of the children had finally awakened, her brother was one of those who didn't make it.

Being the brother of the most talented child in history, most people were expecting great from him.

However, he became the center of jokes from all of them. Even their parents had started to lose interest in him. No, actually, they excluded him from the family.

Because of the praises, she got from the people around her, she lost sight of her brother. She forgot about his consequences.

There was a time when her brother didn't come home. It was one night, in which fierce dogs were hassling the town.
