(MC POV)
Elaria was obviously really confused by everyone's outburst.
It was clear that all of their ire was directed at as though I had done sothing irredeemably wrong.
Elaria turned to , "E… Eh? What's going on, Onii-sama? Did I do sothing wrong? Why are they looking at like that?"
No, no, how are you thinking that they are angry at you? It's pretty obvious that the problematic one is , right? Why would she even think that she was the problem?
Are you still relying on our World's standard of our brother and sister relationship? I thought that the short ti of you being silent was you looking through your mories of this World… Guess you were just being surprised huh…
A few of the crew mbers surrounded us and one even pulled out an electrified baton to point at .
"Step away from the Shogun right now!"
I was about to comply when Elaria stepped in front of protectively, "What are you doing?! How DARE you point that at my Onii-sama?!!! HOW DARE YOU??!!"
Wow… I think this is the first ti I'm seeing Elaria this angry…
"Sho… Shogun?"
"Eh… Did… Did she just call him 'Onii-sama'?"
"Doesn't… Doesn't she always call him 'trash' or 'maggot'?"
"What… What's going on?"
Elaria also heard their words and turned to , her face one of absolute shock.
Right… Let's err… Let's just pause ti for now, shall we?
I snapped my fingers and the flow of ti stopped for the mont, freezing everyone else in existence except for Elaria and I in place.
"O… Onii-sama? What… What do they an by that?"
"Err… You might want to look through the mories of us in this World instead of overwriting it with what we have in the original World."
"Eh? Umm… Ok…"
She closed her eyes and did as I asked.
She should quickly realise that our brother and sister relationship in this World is actually really terrible.
Since Cultivation wasn't a thing in this particular Universe, I ended up just sharing a whole bunch of things with her before losing my mories of my past lives. Then because of that, I beca a really pathetic and deadbeat brother to her who basically did nothing but leech off the family.
Over the years, she would then slowly start growing more and more frustrated with this World's version of especially when she still rembered and idolised my previous self.
We then grew apart after that and the of this World just lived every day without a purpose.
Elaria then suddenly ca back one day after having established her empire and dragged out of my room. She then started kicking around while keeping as a pet of sorts, which the other did not understand why she would do it while the current knew she was trying to get to shape up again through the mistreatnt.
She was hoping that being mistreated will eventually make wish to dominate her and turn the tables on her.
The irony was that she was doing almost the sa thing as what Tsuki had done to in the previous life. Despite their differences, they really are similar in quite a number of things eh?
Just as I was thinking about that, I felt a soft thump against my chest.
Looking down, I realised it was Elaria hugging while putting in quite a bit of strength into the hug.
"Waaaahhhh!! Why is the of this universe so horrible, Onii-sama!!! Waaahhhh!!"
"E… Eh? Why do you say that? Aren't you really aweso though? You managed to build up a galactic empire by yourself within a single lifeti. Heck, it hasn't even been a decade since you started, in fact."
"Waaaahhhh!! But how can I treat Onii-sama like this?!! Stupid! Stupid!! Stuuuuupid!!"
Ermm… I an… Even I'm disappointed in this World's version of , you know? Like if I were to et him, I would give him a slap on the face to wake him up too.
I patted her head, "It's fine, it's fine. I also think the of this universe is a little pathetic too. He deserved it."
"Noooo!! Onii-sama already did so much!! So what if you want to just relax for an entire life?! There's nothing wrong with that!!"
Ehh… I an that was also my plan for this life but I certainly wasn't that much of a slob… I think?
Before I could comfort her again, she looked up at with fire in her eyes.
"Onii-sama!! Redo!!"
"Err… What? Redo?"
"Yes!! We're redoing this Universe!! I won't accept Onii-sama being disrespected anywhere!! We'll go back and live through this Universe again until we reach here!!"
I shook my head quickly, "That's not possible. That's going to take several years, you know? That won't be fair to everyone else waiting their turn for their date…"
She started stamping her foot cutely while throwing a tantrum, "Noooo!! I can't accept this!! I won't! I won't!!"
"If you want, I could just simply alter reality to change the past instead of having us live through it though…"
"That's not the sa, Onii-sama!! I would still rember this universe as the one that treated Onii-sama badly!!"
Umm… To be fair, there are quite a number of other universes where I wasn't really treated well either… For every universe where I succeeded in life, there would also be one where I failed miserably after all…
It's just that I didn't think it would be such a big deal to her…
"Well… I won't be turning back ti for us… And I think we can just continue can't we?"
"How am I suppose to be all lovey dovey with Onii-sama then?! These people will keep disturbing us!!"
"Elaria…"
"What?"
"First… You're the Shogun… Your word is literally law. If you were to decree it, everyone would follow it. Second… You have your divinity here… You govern the domain of 'Work'. You can change things to make things work yourself. Like literally…"
Elaria looked up at , as though thinking over what I said before her face suddenly lit up.
"Oh! Ohhhh! Ohhhhh!!! I know! I know!! Ahahaha! This is actually perfect! This is the best, Onii-sama! Ahahaha! I can do this! That's right! We can continue, Onii-sama!"
Erm… that laugh was a little unsettling but ok…
I snapped my fingers to continue ti and Elaria imdiately turned to the crew mber who pointed his electrified baton at .
In one swift motion, she reached into her coat and pulled out a pistol, shooting him in between the eyes.
The guy wobbled once before collapsing on the deck, dead.
"Nobody… And I repeat. Nobody, gets to disrespect my Onii-sama. Got it?"
…
…
That was definitely not what I expected to happen…
