125 Aiwai (2/2)

”Her husband didn't help her?”

Disregarding the truth, Aiwa was touched by that story.

”You can't call him husband, that beast had too many women it wasn't like he cared about one, he fled immediately abandoning her at the sight of danger.”

Aiwai sighed, that was a more normal behavior although despicable. Calling beast a half-beast was a great insult; since Yale called that to his father, Aiwai understood that at the end they also had a rough childhood.

Yale was calling beast a beast, but he thought the same of his own father.

”You fled from him and started traveling?”

Yale laughed while remembering that scene from the past.

”I killed him.”

Aiwai understood that although Yale was laughing, he wasn't joking. Aiwai didn't kill anyone when she left, but sometimes the clans try to block the half-beasts with a mutated bloodline from leaving, and some clans had even disappeared due to that in the long story of the Anpaes Kingdom.

”I am surprised how quickly you managed to survive by yourselves; you should have had a tough life after your birth to make you leave at such a young age. But don't worry, from today on, I am your big sister and anyone who dares to harm you would end like those bandits. How they dare to aim at you. If I weren't in a rush to kill them and was that far I would have killed them in a more painful way.”

In the end, Yale had decided to accept Aiwai as a big sister for two main reasons.

The first, even if he said no, she could take them by force if she wanted, it was better to be his little brother willingly and probably he and Wyba would be able to benefit greatly.

The second reason was even more important to Yale. Aiwai was without doubts someone who can teach him archery. Yale felt that her archery wasn't worse than Swordmad's swordsmanship even if her realm was still a bit lower than him.

Aiwai neared Wyba and hugged her until she stopped her tears, she had been unable to stop them after thinking about her mother.

While she was hugging Wyba, she spoke to Yale with her Spiritual Sense.

”Why don't you turn back to your real form? I understand that you learned a skill to look older for your security while traveling, but now you don't need to worry about anything.”

Yale was scared to death with the first part of the sentence, but he relaxed after hearing the next part. Aiwai only discovered that he looked older than his real age and not that he wasn't a half-beast. Yale didn't look older due to a skill, but he didn't want to give more details to Aiwai.

”It's really weird for a kid with four years old to look that old; you should turn to your real size. I am sure you will be really cute even if you are a boy, you are Wyba's twin after all.”

At that moment Yale was shocked, and his mind was thinking at top speed.

”Wait! I would have understood if she wanted me to have a height of an ordinary thirteen years old boy. No, she thinks I have an undeveloped bloodline, so she should have thought I am younger than that, but why exactly the same age as Wyba and her twin?”

After thinking a bit more, Yale finally found the reason.

”Our bloodlines are completely identical. Even being normal siblings that would be too much coincidence. Furthermore, we have both the same mutated bloodline and the same grade of bloodline development based on her impression. Thinking from her point of view, it would be weird if I wasn't Wyba's twin.”

The mutation of bloodlines was really strange and good mutations even more; if both siblings had the same, the only reasons should be that they were twins or that their parents had a heaven-defying luck.

”My real age is a secret to the people of this town; I can't transform here. Furthermore, I feel used to my current height, is really necessary to change it?”

Yale was at his real height, but he knew that there was no way Aiwa would believe it, so he just wanted to convince her to avoid changing his size.

Of course, Yale was replying to her with his Spiritual Sense; he didn't want to say those words aloud.

If Aiwai wanted to misunderstand his real age, then it was alright as she was incredibly powerful compared to him, but Yale didn't want that the people in the town also thought that he was a little kid comparable to Wyba.
