Chapter 101: Sister and Brother
"Why? Why does this kid live in his sister's rented house? In the simple rental house of the Enchanted Jungle, Ike scratched his black hair and angrily pointed at the Nebula and yelled at Ife beside him.
"How can you speak to your friend like that? He was a disciple of Mr. Apothecary, and thanks to his help, the gilded rose was safe today. And wasn't the burning potion you drank the same one that the Nebula Mage had provided? Iphi wiped her slender blonde hair with a towel as she lectured to Ike.
Ike's dark eyes stared at Nebula viciously like a bottomless pit, and he pointed to Nebula's wet head and asked sharply, "What I want to ask is, why are you taking a bath with your sister!?" ”
Nebula took the towel that Effie handed him over, and while wiping his hair, he said to Ike, "Ike, don't worry! I didn't see Sister Ife's body. In our side of the country, seeing a woman's naked body is going to gouge out her eyes. ”
After hearing Nebula's explanation, Ike suddenly relaxed for some reason.
Ife and Ike are not biological siblings, Ike is the child of Ife's father's friend, because Ike's parents died unexpectedly, and Ike didn't have any relatives to rely on at the time, so Ife's father - Mekath. Ilo adopts Ike.
Although Ike is an adopted son, Ilo and Ife treat Ike like real family. Since Iloh is often on the run for business, Ife has become Ike's closest person.
Even after that unfortunate incident five years ago, Ike didn't think his relationship with his sister would change in any way.
It's just that Ike cares more about his sister recently, and he doesn't like people getting too close to his sister, and he doesn't like his sister to be too close to other people, even if his sister helps a little ghost like Xingyun wash his hair.
Could it be yourself!! Did you fall in love with your sister!?
"Why do you care so much about Sister Ife? Ike, you," Nebula teased Ike, with a playful look on his face.
Hearing Nebula's teasing, the weak-hearted Ike hurriedly lowered his head, and the blush on his face couldn't be hidden at all.
If the killer fellow who knew Ike saw Ike's shy appearance at this time, they would be scared out of the heart attack.
"Aren't you still growing up, Ike?" Nebula patted Ike on the shoulder and said with a sympathetic expression.
The veins on Ike's forehead kept throbbing, and he really wanted to punch Nebula in sympathetic face right now.
"Nebula, you go to sleep on the bed in the back room first! There's a lot going on today, you should be tired, right!? Ike will sleep with you later, and the bed may be a little cramped, I hope you can understand. Ife then began to urge Nebula to sleep.
Although many unexpected things have happened today, things will always pass, and a better tomorrow is what everyone longs for.
Looking at the Nebula who had fallen asleep sweetly, Ifei walked out of the bedroom with a slight smile.
As she walked to the living room where Ike was, Ife's expression gradually became sad and heavy.
"Sister, is there anything else? I'm a little sleepy, is there anything I can talk about tomorrow? Ike didn't know what to say to his sister, who was waiting for him, but Ike had a hunch that it was definitely not a good thing, so Ike wanted to avoid it as much as possible.
Effie grabbed Ike, who was about to get up and leave, and said in a very serious tone, "Listen to me when I'm done!" I want to ask you, what exactly have you done in the abandoned city in the past five years? Why are you able to kill someone so easily? ”
After hearing Ife's inquiry, Ike was stunned at first, and when he was about to blurt out an explanation, Ife preemptively said to Ike: "Don't tell me high-sounding words like thieves and flying heroes. You're subtle, but I know you're not a thief. Because you don't have scouting and reasoning skills, and you don't have the agility of a thief. If you still think that my sister will be honest with me, I don't want to be deceived by those closest to me. ”
Ike couldn't meet Ife's gaze, and although he tried his best to hide it, he still showed his feet after making an all-out move.
Ike said to Ife in a deep voice, "In the five years I spent in the abandoned city, I became a killer. ”
"In order to survive, in order to find news of my sister, I joined the Jazz Killer Guild, and in the past five years, I have taken jobs almost every half month, and my most recent assignment is the ore shop owner on the outskirts of the free market, and the task has been completed today." Ike recounts his five years as if he were telling a story, as if the protagonist of the story was not him, but someone who had nothing to do with him.
After listening to Ike's story, Ify didn't immediately scold Ike, as usual, nor did she cry bitterly about Ike's experience like a normal sister. Instead, he looked at Ike with sad and hateful eyes, and it was clear that Ife couldn't accept Ike's killer identity at all.
"Why are you going to be a killer!? Do you know? Your parents didn't die by accident at all, they were killed by killers. My father was not killed by the thieves, but by a sudden killer during the robbery of the thieves!! Woo~~~" Ife made a strong accusation against Ike and exposed the truth about the death of his relatives, and said that Ifei was so sad that he even began to sobble slightly.
Ike was speechless, he didn't know the secrets of the matter, and if he could know the truth of the matter beforehand, he wouldn't be a killer even if he took turns to be a beggar. Because Ike knows very well how important his adoptive father is to his sister.
After Ife's mood calmed down a little, Ike said solemnly, "Sister, I will quit the Killer Guild and concentrate on preparing for the Flying Man exam." Please forgive me! Sister, I was wrong! ”
Hearing Ike's sincere confession, Iffie's anger had already disappeared halfway. What's more, no matter how angry he is with Ike, Ike is his younger brother after all.
Killing people is not scary, in the adventure world, as long as you choose the path of the strong, you will kill more or less occasions. The terrible thing is to kill someone as a killer, to kill someone who has nothing to do with you for profit, whether this person is a good person or a bad person, whether it is the father or mother of the child
Iphi is thinking about how to say that she will forgive Ike, but Ike thinks that her sister will not forgive her if she does not respond to her.
So Ike blushed and threw himself on his sister's thigh
Ike gritted his teeth and folded his pants and lay on Ife's lap with a red face, and Ike said to Effie very shyly, "Sister, I know it's wrong." Can you be a little lighter when hitting? ”
Looking at the heroic and righteous Ike, Ife almost laughed. When Ike was a child, he would take the initiative to lie on his lap and wait to be beaten after he felt that he had done something wrong, and this kind of Ike was very cute. She didn't expect that her younger brother, who had grown up as a teenager, was still afraid of being angry and sad like when she was a child.
But I am really angry today, the store was destroyed, and my favorite brother became my most hated killer, as if the bad luck of my life happened today.
Although he felt a little suspicious of being angry with his brother, Ife decided to teach Ike a hard lesson.
In the middle of the night, Ife picked up and slapped his brother's white buttocks continuously, until Ike couldn't bear it anymore and began to beg for mercy
★?????????????????? ★
"Ike, why are your eyes red? Didn't you sleep well last night? Nebula woke up in the morning and asked Ike, who had entered his room, curiously.
Ike grinned and rubbed his buttocks, grinning and replying, "I slept well, but I just accidentally rubbed my eyes." ”
Although his ass was still aching at this time, Ike was very happy at this time.
Because last night my sister felt that she beat her too hard, and her sister, who felt sorry for herself, not only personally rubbed the medicine for herself, but also let herself sleep with her.
Since I was eight years old, I was finally able to sleep with my sister again!
"You're still too tender!" Nebula smacked his lips and shook his head, saying disdainfully to Ike.
Nebula ignored Icke's clenched fists and continued to sarcastically, "I overheard everything yesterday, and you were reduced to such a way to exchange your sister's attention!" Ike, you haven't done enough! ”
"You should have pretended to be stoic and told about your career as a killer, then talked about your suffering a little more severely, and finally looked at your sister with innocent and helpless eyes. In this way, you may not have to be beaten at all to get your sister's caresses, and maybe she will wipe her tears to comfort you! Nebula wagged his finger at the stunned Ike.
Ike nodded in realization, and he asked Nebula very curiously, "Why are you so familiar with this aspect?" Don't you"
"That's right! That's how I fooled my brother, it's not easy to beg for some candy these days~~~" Nebula fell into deep memories after finishing speaking, and delicious candies kept tumbling in Nebula's mind.
Nebula clasped his hands over his shoulders and said to Ike earnestly, "Remember, begging is a last resort!" Not every time you get beaten, you can get what you want, and begging for a beating can only be the last resort."
Ike listened intently to Nebula's teachings, nodded from time to time, and almost took a small notebook to write it down.
"Ike, Nebula! The clothes are already on the small chair in front of your door, hurry up and change your clothes and pants, we are going to the Adventurer's Guild today. Ife urged the two of them loudly outside the door.
As a result of that terrible thing that happened yesterday, Ike's clothes were torn all over the place, and Nebula's clothes were dirty. The clothes on the chair were all bought by Ifei when he went out early this morning, a plain blue power suit and a small gray robe.
After Xingyun and Ike quickly got dressed, they walked briskly to the rental house while hooking their shoulders and backs to each other, discussing how to pretend to be pitiful and cute in front of their brothers and sisters
