"I won't keep you long. You know that I'm a Child of the Empress, right?" Evin didn't really wish to dance around the problem.
"Yeah, and what do you want to do about it? If you think I'm going to snitch on my parents, then don't worry about it. I won't get in the way of your pathetic ego Still acting like a child, getting hugged by my parents Were you so seriously deprived of love your previous life, you have to pretend to be so kind of actual newborn? Or do you seriously believe that you're their child?" Sasha suddenly burst like a dam, like she was waiting for an excuse to say all these things priorly.
'Ah, she definitely misunderstood things This makes it a bit easier. Though she is quite harsh with her words' Evin thought and smiled drolly.
"Correct if I'm wrong, but do you think that Lora and Theor doesn't know?" Evin asked back as calmly as he could.
Sasha paused briefly at Evin's words. Visible confusion was apparent in her eyes, before it was replaced my hateful mockery.
"Don't lie! You think I can't just ask them and find out about it?" Sasha snarled back, but still said it in a low voice, seemingly afraid of getting found out, for whatever reason.
"By all ans you can go ask them, but they'll still tell you the sa thing, you know?" Evin replied.
Sasha looked at Evin's eyes and seed to realize that he wasn't lying.
"Then why would they still act like you're still their child? Hugging and kissing So close and everything?" Sasha asked, her voice trailing off at the end.
"I also don't know what they think of when they approach to hug , but I suppose they still think of as their child. After all, so parents still love their children even after they've committed heinous cris or terrible mistakes. And moreover, as much as I'd love to deny this fact, technically I am their child. Obviously, I co with so extra mories, but it's not like I magically appeared from so other place," Evin said with a chuckle.
Sasha looked back with a blank face, seemingly sorting things in her head as she took on a silver hue for a split second.
"As for you Well, it just seed like you were misunderstanding sothing, so I decided to make things clear to you. I understand that you don't really trust , and that you feel very confused about this whole ordeal. I don't plan to force us to get along. If you want to hate , then, by all ans, hate . But at least you know the other side of the story now," Evin said and Sasha went silent.
In truth, Evin would love to get along with his sister, but he wouldn't really mind if his relation was lacking. After all, Evin was soone logical. When he first revealed his origins to his parents, he was ready for them to disown and cut contact with him. If sothing like that happened, sure Evin would be saddened, but such a thing wasn't going to get him depressed for long. He would've went on with his life, with so part of him even rejoicing that he didn't have to worry about his family anymore
Sighing he looked at his sister, who was staring back at him, thinking of sothing.
'I wonder how other Children deal with this problem? After all, there really wasn't a guidebook for this kind of stuff,' he couldn't help but think.
'Or maybe there is? Ah whatever. Let's just get this over with.'
"What I want to say is, don't ruin your relation with the rest of the family over . It's not like anyone expected sothing like this to happen. And if they try to help you out and support you, don't push away their help. They really don't an anything bad with their intentions" Evin was saying so random stuff before he realized sothing.
'Wait, Sasha's just going through her rebellious phase! After all, she was considered a teenager now. That ans that anything I say would probably be swept away by her rage'
'Ah, fuck it. Let's just hope that Lady Veidra's World would give her so clarity of mind. And also, I need to give her the Velvet Contract too... so she can get a boost to her horn and also learn Veidra's thod of forging artifacts. But what if she refuses to take it now? In fact, I'm pretty sure she'll refuse it at this timing' Evin thought and tried to think of a solution.
"In any case, that's all from so I'll leave you alone. Thanks for listening to till the end," Evin said and walked out of the room. He decided to bring up the matter of the gift after judging how she acted afterwards.
'Wait why did I get out of my own room? Shit, guess I'll go do sothing else for a bit,' Evin thought.
He then saw Lora and Theor approaching from the bakery, both of them expectantly looking at Evin. The trio went to a different room and closed the door behind them.
"I've talked with her and I feel like there wasn't much of a problem."
"Really? Are you sure about that?" Theor asked.
"Yes, she already knew about being soone else in my past life, so that made it a bit easier. She just misunderstood that I was hiding the fact from you two and now the misunderstanding is cleared. But don't go and bother her for the ti being, alright? She needs so ti alone, I think," Evin said, and wondered how weird this situation would look like from the side. The youngest child of a family, giving his parents advice on how to raise his sister.
'I really need that fucking guidebook for reincarnators,' he thought decisively.
"Alright. We'll see how things go," Lora said and sighed in relief. She then looked at Theor and found the other doing the sa exact thing. The two smiled at each other, love and affection clear in their eyes.
Looking at his parents act all lovery-dovey, an awkward feeling rose up in Evin. He quickly tried to think of another matter to distract them.
"By the way, do you guys want to beco 1st grade citizens officially? After all, I'm a pretty competent mage now, so I should be accepted pretty easily."
"Well, I suppose we wouldn't mind, but I have a feeling we'll still end up working a bakery around here so in the end, it doesn't really matter for us?" Lora said, pulled back to reality.
"What are you talking about, Lora? Evin, don't listen to this woman. I'm sure you just have to go to the Mage Association building and take so test. If you pass it, they'll do the rest for you," Theor hurriedly said, obviously knowledgeable about how the process worked.
Evin smiled and promised to take the test as soon as possible. Since he was actually free today, he decided to go there before lunch. After all, he could see that Sasha was still in his room.
