95 Ch. 95 He Is Alive (1/2)
Xiao Yue opened her eyes, filled with tears. She looked around in surprise and rose from her sleep while wiping away the tears that began to flow down her cheeks. After she regained consciousness, she realized something. She was dreaming!
No, she just dreamed of her past. That was not correct either as it was not a dream. It was a memory that had long been buried deep in her mind.
”Niken?”
Xiao Yue turned to her brother, who called out to her in a worried tone. She remembered it now. She was Niken at the moment, and her brother was no longer a crown prince of the Nishian Kingdom. He was an ordinary fire Elementalist by the name of Richard.
Since Sir Jaydn took her and her injured brother to a place, Xiao Yue did not know what had happened. The next moment she woke up, she had been in an orphanage along with her twin brother. Since then, they had used these weird names as their new identities.
She could only guess what happened at the time. The wind sphere that carried them went somewhere to a place unknown to the others. Her memories were still vague and unclear, but she remembered Ling Duan was there waiting for them.
Ling Duan helped Xiao Yang to reverse their lifetime with the power of the stone of the Queen. By using the stone's energy enhancement, not only could they hide her true mastery, but her dying brother would also return to normal health without any injuries.
But everything costed a price—a high price they need to pay. One of them was they would lose their memories. No matter how much they tried, they could never remember who they are or their background.
Lucky for Xiao Yue as she was the Time Master; hence she could restore her sealed memories. As for her brother…
”Niken?” Xiao Yue's reverie dispersed as she felt a finger wipe the rest of her tears from her cheeks. ”What's wrong? Are you having nightmares?” asked her brother.
Niken smiled, then looked at her brother's face and watched her brother from head to toe. There are no injuries, no blood or arrow. Niken hugged her brother with all her heart. Her brother is still alive, that was the most important.
”Niken?”
”Brother,”
”Yes?”
”My big brother,”
”I'm here.”
She called her brother repeatedly to ensure that this was not a dream. She and her brother managed to escape that terrible attack. They have survived until now. Unconsciously Niken shed tears once again. Niken smiled as she felt her brother gently patting her back to comfort her.
Ah, her brother still her brother, whether he was an older brother or a twin brother.
”I don't know what you're dreaming about, but it's all over. You're fine, no one can hurt you. I will not let anyone hurt you.” said Richard in a soothing tone.
”It will not happen. Besides, I'm not the only one who will protect you. I will not get hurt. It was only a dream. So don't overthink it, okay?”
”What? Who else will protect me? What are you talking about?”
”Of course, our friends. They even waited outside. They are concerned about your situation. You have no idea they have been looking for a way to save your life, especially Kazuto.”
