They Hated Me in My First Life, But Now I Have the Love System Chapter 358: Puppy Love

Chapter 358: Puppy Love

Nnenna rolled her eyes but smiled. She could already imagine him teasing her every day if she transferred there and he visited. Before he could start listing more of her past mistakes, she quickly switched topics.

“This is Prince Arthur’s kingdom, isn’t it?” she asked suddenly. “Oh my gosh, I almost forgot!”

Carl let out a knowing laugh. “It really is the Kingdom of that block of Ice, huh? I wonder if he’s even around, or still out there chasing his mystery girl.”

“It does not matter if he’s in the kingdom or not,” Carl added seriously, the humor fading from his tone. “He won’t affect your education unless you have not let go of your puppy love for him. But with more close, you might as well forget about it!”

Nnenna “…”

You still leave a kingdom away from Prigrian okay?!

She could not help but roll her eyes when he ntioned puppy love. That misunderstanding was still fresh huh. Why couldn’t they understand, she had no puppy love for Arthur! All she wanted was to stick close to her good points tree okay?!

What a beautiful misunderstanding.

“Just say yes to Somto’s offer. And don’t worry, I’ll make ti to co visit you there.” Carl added.

There was a short pause. Carl seed to be thinking about sothing. Then he asked, “The academic year is starting soon. When are you coming over?”

“After my brother’s coronation,” Nnenna replied.

“Alright then. Safe journey,” Carl said gently.

“It will be your first ti crossing the seas and entering another continent,” Carl said with a soft smile in his voice. “I always wanted to be the one to bring you here for the first ti… but this is okay too.”

Just as Nnenna was about to end the call, his next words made her pause.

“It’s good that you asked for my opinion.”

“Of course! You’re my elder brother, I can’t make such a major decision without informing you first,” Nnenna replied naturally, as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. And for her, it truly was.

“I will give eldest brother Somto my answer as soon as I can,” she added.

“Alright. Take care of yourself,” Carl said, and the call ended.

A small smile tugged at Carl’s lips as he lowered his phone. His little sister definitely needed a leash, but he did not want to restrict her too much. He feared that if he tried, it might extinguish that fierce fla in her heart, the one that led her to Purlit and nearly got her killed.

Still, it showed how determined and brave she was.

Carl could not help but feel suspicious about why Somto was suddenly insisting on Omniora Academy. It was a top tier, almost mythical school, and not the kind of place you just “happened” to get into. What was his real motive?

But then again… knowledge was power.

If Nnenna could gain wisdom, self discipline, and better control over her emotions and choices, it might just save her life in the future. And a place like Omniora Academy? It was perfect for that.

“It’ll be nice to see her again after so many months,” Carl thought to himself as he leaned back in his chair. A few thoughts crossed his mind, and then, without hesitation, he picked up his phone again. There were preparations to be made, important ones.

anwhile, back in Lionara, Nnenna was still thinking about Carl’s words. A small part of her was worried. He hadn’t truly sounded angry, but she knew him, he was definitely upset. The disappointnt in his voice still echoed in her ears.

She sighed, trying to shake it off, when a knock ca on her door.

She opened it, and froze.

Standing right at the doorway were Ebere and Little Sweetie.

Neither of them was smiling. In fact, their faces looked serious, too serious, but behind that seriousness, Nnenna could sense sothing else: relief. Deep, bone deep relief.

“Do you no longer consider your elder sister?” Ebere asked, her voice calm but trembling slightly.

“What? Of course you’re my sister! Why would you say that?” Nnenna replied, completely shocked.

Ebere’s eyes hardened as she stepped forward. “Then why would you take on such a dangerous mission and leave without telling ? Not even a word? Not a single ssage before you left?”

Nnenna shrank back, her head lowered. Everyone was mad at her, Somto, Obinna, Carl, and now Ebere and even little Sweetie. But the truth was… she deserved it.

She could not even co up with a proper excuse. “I’m sorry,” she whispered.

“You’re sorry?” Ebere repeated, her tone rising. “But if you were given the chance… would you do it again?”

Nnenna froze.

The honest answer was yes.

She would definitely do it again. Maybe not the sa way. she would avoid the mistakes that almost got them all killed, but deep inside, she knew she would still make the sa choice.

But how could she say that now, to soone who was already so hurt and angry?

So she said nothing.

Just stood there.

Blank.

Ebere’s shoulders dropped. She looked at Nnenna, eyes filled with frustration, pain, and helpless love. “At least promise one thing,” she said quietly. “If you ever want to do sothing like that again… prepare better. Don’t just run off. Take people who can protect you. Let us help you.”

Nnenna felt her throat tighten. That, at least, she could promise.

She nodded quickly. “I promise.”

Without another word, Ebere pulled her into a tight hug. Little Sweetie joined in, wrapping her small arms around both of them.

They didn’t say anything more.

Little Sweetie had already worked through most of her anger and fear. After all, she had followed Nnenna into danger and almost watched them die. She didn’t say much anymore, she knew Nnenna was already dealing with enough guilt.

After chatting with her for a few more minutes, both Ebere and Little Sweetie finally left.
