The next morning, after successfully eradicating the beast nest in the mountains, the twin brothers led their team in a triumphant return to the city.
After smoothly handling a series of handovers, the two grabbed so snacks from a street vendor and rrily walked ho, chatting and laughing.
However, before they even entered the house, their younger sister Helen burst out of the door and rushed into the arms of her elder brothers, her throat emitting a whimpering cry.
"Brother..."
"What's the matter?"
Seeing their sister's eyes swollen like peaches, the brothers looked astonished and quickly asked.
Helen pointed to the courtyard behind her, enveloped in a glowing pattern, hesitated several tis as if wanting to speak, her face full of grief and indignation.
"They..."
Unable to contain themselves, the brothers unconsciously leaned in to listen, and imdiately, they heard bursts of intense collisions and gasps coming from the courtyard.
That familiar lody made the brothers, experienced as they were, reveal a mocking expression.
So, they actually got together while we were out.
But co on, make love if you must, but could you keep the noise down?
Looking at the thick, multilayered magic barrier in front of them, the brothers were astounded and looked pityingly at their sister, who seed to have been forced to spend the entire night watching, secretly criticizing the three unbridled people in the courtyard.
Look how scared my kid is...
"It's a small matter, don't mind them!"
"Haven't you eaten yet? Let's take you out for a good al."
The two brothers spoke one after the other, pulling along their grievously wronged sister towards the bustling market, intending to nd her bruised heart with food.
Being dragged away, Helen, looking at her two brothers who were oblivious to the root of the problem, felt extrely bitter.
Eat, eat, eat, what's there to eat? Our ho is almost gone!
The three chances that were originally mine were used up twice in advance by those thieves inside.
What's more infuriating is that all three of them were doing that, and they left out alone, making such a commotion that I was forced to watch all night long!
That's just too much!
Fortunately, the heartfelt love from her two brothers sowhat diminished Helen's resentnt.
"Co on, you must be starving? Eat more."
"This stead mutton and roasted pigeon taste good, try them."
Comforted by her brothers' words, Helen turned her grief into appetite, gritted her teeth, and fiercely bit into the lamb chops and pigeon at on her plate.
She hadn't had a hot al since yesterday morning after all.
anwhile, the two in the courtyard ate to their heart's content... in various senses...
Just as Helen was beginning to enjoy the true taste of her food, Castor, who had finished his al earlier, threw down his bone, clapped his hands, and reminded her.
"Hurry up and eat, we still need to make a trip to the Temple of the Moon Goddess and the Royal Palace."
"Why?"
"With all that noise, they might keep at it for a long ti, and being out of sight for so long, of course, we need to find an excuse to cover for them."
Polux casually answered, exchanging a knowing smile with his brother, their eyes gleaming with the sa mischievous glint, reminiscent of friends covering for each other in front of their parents and elders.
Thud~
The large lamb chop Helen was gnawing on fell onto the plate, her little face turning as dark as the bottom of a pot.
She gave them her opportunity, her place to live, and even the person she liked.
In the end, was she supposed to run errands and cover for them while they enjoyed themselves?
The girl lowered her head to look at the half-eaten lamb chop on her plate and pursed her lips.
She felt, once again, a slight itching in her teeth...

In the depths of the Arcadian Mountains, the bands of beasts seed to be overflowing into a disaster again, but Queen Atalanta had already gone on a hunting expedition into the deep mountains with her friends.
As for the news brought by the twin brothers, whether it was the Temple of the Moon Goddess or the Royal Palace, it was quite customary.
Their queen had always liked to be independent, venturing several tis into the beast-infested mountains to destroy nurous nests; now this similar approach was not surprising.
Even without Atalanta, the literal leader, the various forces in the City of Arcadia, honed by repeated beast disasters, were already capable of operating on their own, maintaining the basic order of the city.
Just like that, three to five days passed, and the Royal City remained as stable as ever, with even no serious incidents occurring.
The only slightly unusual thing was the strange vibrations emanating occasionally from beneath the houses in the southeastern part of the city.
Seven days later, the twin brothers, who routinely ca to report to Queen Clyne, were struggling to keep up.
The two looked at the gentle and elegant middle-aged lady in the garden, who was chatting pleasantly with Queen Clyne, and felt an inexplicable sense of unease, letting out an internal wail.
Brother, it's been seven days, haven't you had enough?
Please, co out already! Soone's looking for you! It seems to be a deity!
Seeing the conversation between the queen and the middle-aged lady conclude, and spotting so clues, the hesitant brothers were just about to pluck up their courage when a heavenly voice ca from behind.
"Does she want to see ?"
Upon hearing this, the twin brothers looked excitedly toward Luo En, who had appeared behind them, and nodded eagerly.
"Brother, you finally ca out. Do you know she's been waiting for you at the Royal Palace for half a day? If you and those two didn't show up soon, we were about to rush into the courtyard and drag you out of your love nest."
"Thanks for the suffering..."
Luo En, knowing he was at fault, clapped the twin brothers on the shoulders and thanked them with a nervous laugh.
"Go ahead with your tasks, I'll take over from here."
