“What are you two doing?”

His body creaked like a broken robot.

I felt the surrounding temperature drop, and an inexplicable chill ran through my body.

What is it? Is it ice magic?

There was no setting in the novel that Lily could use magic. Maybe it’s just my imagination?

“Sister Hera.”

In the eyes that stare at me with their light gone

“Heeek-!”

Without realizing it, I hugged Dania.

“……”

Then Lily’s expression as she looks at me becomes more rotten.

What? What did I do wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?

“Are you done washing up, Lily? You come quickly and let’s eat together.”

Didn’t Dania feel this cold air?

She smiled and spoke to Lily as if nothing was wrong.

Then, after standing for a while, Lily quietly joined the table without saying a word. But her eyes remained fixed on me.

When Dania goes to get extra dishes and food, she finally looks away from me and looks at her sister’s back.

‘Ah. I see.’

I think I know why Lily looks at me like that.

Lily has been relying on Dania a lot so far.

It’s only natural, since she’s her only family. Lily’s world is probably mostly filled with Dania right now.

I wonder if she was jealous because such a precious older sister kissed her?

‘He obviously thinks I’m stealing his sister away from him.’

Yeah. This is it.

I looked at Lily friendly, praising myself for finding the perfect answer.

“…?”

Let’s be embarrassed by my confident expression.

I quickly wrapped both of my hands around Lily’s and held her tightly.

“Huh?”

Lily let out a cute sound, perhaps surprised by my sudden behavior. I ignored her and whispered.

“Don’t worry, Lily. What you’re worried about won’t happen.”

“Yes??”

She makes an expression as if she is expecting something from my words. Lily. Just trust me.

“Are you saying this because you’re afraid I’ll take your sister away from you?”

“….Huh?”

“Don’t worry. I won’t interfere with your relationship with your sister. I promise.”

I didn’t really think about it. If it were Korea, I would be just entering middle school now, so how desperately would I need my family’s love?

It was a situation where it wouldn’t have been strange at all for them to be wary of me like before.

“Do you really like your sister?”

In the novel, it is said that she lost her sister and lived a life without emotions before meeting the main character, so Lily’s love for Dania cannot be described in words.

Let’s look at Lily while caressing her small hands.

“…..”

He was looking at me with cold eyes.

Huh?…Why…?

Still not convinced?

Seeing Lily’s expression, I felt like I had to say something, so I hurriedly added.

“Is that because I kissed you? That…that was just a small thank you from your sister! Lily would do it for you too, if you asked her to? ”

“….What about Hera?”

uh?

“Huh?.. Me?”

“If I ask, will Hera unnie do it anytime?”

Lily’s gaze that stares at me is burdensome. What should I say?

“Um… That’s…”

“.. Is that not possible? You said it was just a light greeting… but as expected, with my sister..”

Lily lowers her head sullenly.

“Ah. No!! I can do it!! It’s just a light thank you!”

I feel like I’ve said something irrevocable.

But I couldn’t just sit by and watch Lily be sad, so I decided to just do what she wanted.

I’d much rather have Dania do it than me, but still, yeah. If Lily wants it.

Our Lily. Do whatever you want.

Only after hearing my answer did Lily’s eyes light up, as if her mood had eased a bit. Then a big smile spread across her face.

“Then that’s great!”

Cute. Lily is the prettiest when she smiles.

“What are you guys talking about so amicably?”

Dania says as she places food and a bowl in front of Lily, who has already returned.

‘Lily was talking about how much she liked Dania.’

But I thought Lily would be too embarrassed to say it out loud. I put my finger to my lips, looked at Lily, and winked one eye.

“Um…well. A secret?”

Lily’s eyes widened the moment she saw my face, and she put her finger on her lips as if following me.

“Yeah! It’s a secret!”

She was a lovely girl.

* * *

After finishing the meal.

I laid Lily, who was half-asleep, on the sofa and chatted with Dania.

“You’re twenty-four years old, so you’re older than me.”

“Oh, really?”

With her voluptuous body and the mature aura she exudes, I thought she was older than me.

Of course, I am confident that I will not lose to anyone in terms of my body, but Dania is an exception.

If I were to say that I have a body that drives people crazy, Dania has a body that drives people crazy. Especially her breasts.

I asked Dania to speak comfortably.

“Haha.. I will. You can also call me unnie comfortably.”

“Yes..sister.”

It felt quite awkward to call her older sister, but I managed to say it somehow.

“By the way, Hera. I have a question.”

“Huh?”

“Is Hera also a mana user?”

“Ah.”

Dania looked at me and spoke cautiously.

Well, it was a reasonable thought, considering that a girl who hadn’t even reached the age of 18 was going around breaking people like breaking eggs.

Dania probably thinks I’m someone who can use mana to a fairly powerful level.

If it had been someone I wasn’t that close with, I would have just said it was nothing and let it go, but I decided to tell Dania.

“No. I didn’t say anything. Actually, I have that unique ability.”

Upon hearing what I said, Dania blinked a few times and then became very surprised.

“Oh..unique ability?!!”

“What?”

When Dania shouted, Lily, who was sleeping next to her, woke up with a start. But she quickly closed her eyes again and fell asleep on the sofa.

Dania, who noticed that Lily had fallen asleep again, spoke again in a quiet voice.

“Really? You didn’t use mana?”

“Yes. Unfortunately, I still don’t know how to use mana..”

“A unique ability? That’s amazing.”

It’s amazing. Just by possessing it, you can deal with high-level mana users and even those with equal power. Of course, there are abilities that are far from combat, but they also show fraudulent performance in their respective fields. It’s an ability that everyone wants to have, but it’s a blessing that only a few people can have. That’s the unique ability.

“Hehe..I can’t use it perfectly yet though.”

This ability can only be used against hostile opponents.

Towards someone I don’t feel hostility towards, I’m just a girl with no ability.

‘But would that ever happen?

It’s impossible not to feel hostility when you’re fighting a bloody battle.

Even if you don’t intend to fight at first, fighting spirit naturally arises when you get hit first.

In fact, it is almost always on.

“Somehow… I thought you were too strong for your age. But you’d be treated very well if you went to the Empire. Why are you here?”

Even if you are from Drax, if you have unique abilities, the Empire will welcome you with open arms.

He is one of the few talented people in the world, so we can’t miss him.

There was no way I could say that I should stay in Drax so as not to disturb the protagonist.

He made excuses while scratching his head.

“Um….I don’t feel like going back here since it’s a place I’ve been staying for a long time.”

“Still..”

He looks at me with a worried expression. It’s okay, Dania. This is probably the safest place.

The Karaz Empire. The Regis Academy within it. Elvenheim, the land of the elves. The Demon World where the demons live.

And in addition, the various places where the protagonist experiences trials encounter various disasters.

Drax, a lawless zone where no incidents occur, is ironically a much safer place.

“And now I know Dania! I will never go there.”

“…Oh my.”

He looks at me with a slightly flushed face.

“Then I guess I shouldn’t send it either.”

Never.

He added something in a small voice, but unfortunately I couldn’t hear him.

As the conversation continued like that,

“Whaaah..Anjolini Hera?”

Maybe she was tired. Dania stretched out her arms, clasping them together and stretching them upward.

I was already starting to feel lethargic because of the food intolerance.

“I’m a little tired..”

“Let’s stop for today and talk tomorrow. Tomorrow will be a bit busy.”

Is it because of the West?

In fact, I just wanted to live in abundance. I didn’t want to do the annoying work of running a city.

Most of the people here are criminals. What’s the use of working for them?

‘But there must definitely be people like Dania.’

People who lost everything in a sudden disaster and became wanderers.

I have no intention of governing the West, but I do intend to be a fence for them.

I think I’ll have to talk to Dania in more detail tomorrow.

“Then I’ll sleep on the sofa.”

At first glance, there seemed to be two rooms in this house. They seemed to be Dania’s and Lily’s rooms respectively.

Since there are no extra beds, it is assumed that I, as a guest, will sleep on the sofa.

“No. You’ll get sick if you do that. Go to bed and sleep properly.”

However, he was firmly rejected by Dania.

“But aren’t there only two beds?..”

“What’s the big deal? Just sleep together.”

“Are we…together?! But it’ll be narrow.”

“Then just hug and sleep.”

“Huh…huh?!”

Hugging? With Dania?

I can’t sleep. I absolutely can’t sleep. Even though I have a woman’s body now, a man’s soul still remains in my heart.

If I sleep with Dania in my arms, I probably won’t be able to stay up all night.

But somewhere in my heart, I whisper to myself that it’s okay to sleep with Dania.

‘No… Dania treats me with pure kindness, but how can you harbor such lewd thoughts…!’

If this were a cartoon, there would be pictures of angels and demons fighting on either side of my head.

“My bed is bigger than Lily’s bed, so come with me-”

“Ah..No!! I can’t sleep with my sister!”

Dania’s words suddenly cut off.

When did you wake up?

Lily, who had been sleeping until just now, suddenly sits up and shouts.

“..Lily?”

Dania was slightly taken aback by her younger brother’s sudden actions.

“You’d better sleep with me! I’m much smaller than you, so it won’t be too cramped!”

He looks at me anxiously and shouts.

“You made a promise with me, didn’t you? ”

‘Ah… As expected of Lily.’

I guess he really loves his sister.

It means that rather than watching Dania and I sleep together, you’d rather sleep with me.

Seeing him speak so urgently, I guess he really didn’t want to lose his sister.

Yeah, I guess I have a promise with Lily too.

I had no intention of stealing it, but I felt that I should avoid sleeping with Dania, if only to reassure Lily.

“Hehe.. If it’s okay with Lily, should I do that?”

Lily’s expression softens as she hears me.

Is it really that good? I patted Lily’s head, who was laughing.

“I’ll sleep with Lily, sis. Thank you for caring.”

“……”

Dania stared blankly at Lily for a long time.

“No way…Lily too?..”

He mumbled something that I couldn’t understand.

“Go to sleep, Lily.”

“Hehehe.”

Lily and I in the same blanket.

It was a bit cramped for the two of them, but they seemed like they could sleep well if they hugged each other.

Lily was snuggled into my arms like a kitten burrowing into its mother.

‘You seem to be really lonely..’

I feel like I have a maternal instinct that I didn’t have before. I should spend more time with Lily from now on.

I thought it would be nice for the three of us to go on a picnic together, including Dania.

But I wonder if there’s a good place to go for a picnic in Drax.

“Sister..Can you give me a kiss?”

“Huh?”

“You said you’d do it anytime.. Do it now.”

Well, I said I’d do it whenever Lily wanted.

Well, I guess a kiss or something like that wouldn’t be a problem. It’s actually a light form of skinship that can be exchanged as a greeting.

I closed my eyes gently and kissed Lily’s soft cheek.

side-

“Huh huh.. Is it okay now?”

“Hehehe… Yes, sis! Now go to sleep quickly!”

Lily closed her eyes with a satisfied expression.

I followed Lily and closed my eyes. I was able to fall asleep without difficulty.

.

.

.

“Sister…are you sleeping?”

As if to answer the question, a quiet breathing sound is heard.

Lily looked at Hera, who was in a deep sleep.

A beautiful face no matter how many times she saw it. Lily couldn’t take her eyes off her face.

‘pretty..’

The feelings that arose from the first time I met Hera.

Every time I saw Hera, my heart raced and an inexplicable, sticky feeling rose from deep within me.

When I saw Hera taking a bath accidentally earlier, it was as if my body was no longer my own.

A strange sensation enveloped my body. It felt hot as if it was going to burn, but also ticklish.

“Not yet…”

Lily knew how Hera viewed her.

It felt exactly like the way her older sister looked at her. It was the same way she looked after her precious younger sibling.

Lily looked at her body.

Lily’s body, which had not yet fully grown, was far behind Dania’s.

Although she was my older sister whom I was so grateful for and loved, I sometimes hated Dania’s heart that showed destructive power.

‘Later, for sure…’

Lily gently touched her cheek, making a promise to herself.

The moist sensation that had touched her cheek. Lily stared at Hera’s closed lips.

‘This much…is okay?”

side-

The sound of lips lightly touching each other.

Even though their lips had only touched, Lily felt ecstatic.

A sweet sensation flowed into my lips, as if I had eaten fresh fruit.

But are you still not satisfied?

‘Just one more time..’

side-

Lily’s lips coveting the fruit again.

Still, Lily’s greed was not satisfied.

‘It’s not enough yet..’

side-

‘Just a little more..’

.

.

.

‘For the last time…’

.

.

.

So Lily’s lips did not leave Hera’s face for a long time.
