Vol 3: Chapter 5: An Emotional Reunion
The Atonement of the Guilty
An Emotional Reunion
When I arrived in front of the inn the maid had told me about, I took a deep breath and calmed myself down.
What if she was a completely different person? At that time, unnecessary thoughts of what to do started spinning around in my head. But I couldn't just stand here forever.
With determination, I enter the inn. There are quite a lot of people there, and I can't figure out where the person I'm looking for is.
As I was looking around for the Saint of Devotion in front of the entrance, I noticed a woman approaching me... and when I saw her figure...
I think I looked at her in shock. But it couldn't be helped. The girl who had approached me was... my ....
...…Because she was a woman I knew. And I was convinced that she must be the Saint of Devotion.
Yes, the person before my eyes was more mature and beautiful than when I last saw her a year ago.
It was my sister, Christina, who I thought was dead.
The moment I saw Chris, I burst into tears uncontrollably and my body shook with joy.
"--...Chris...you're really...alive...! I'm so glad...I'm so glad..."
I screamed and then I clung to Chris. I couldn't control my emotions, I just wanted to feel that Chris was alive. Chris' body was... so warm.
When I hugged Chris, she froze in place as I suddenly embraced her.
Of course. What on earth would she thinking now, when her cold-blooded sister didn't even try to look for Chris after she fell off the cliff? I had prepared myself for rejection, but...
Chris hugged me back gently, as if giving me a slow, loving embrace.
It's like... yes, it's just like ...
--It's as if you've forgiven me.
After we held each other for a while, we separated and Chris was crying, tears streaming down her face.
She was crying for such a terrible sister.
"Chris... Chris... How can you still cry for me? I didn't even look for you. ....For someone as terrible as me...."
Seeing that, I couldn't bear the guilt and asked Chris that question. I knew asking such a question would only cause trouble... I'm such a sly woman.
In response to that question, Chris smiled with tears in her eyes and gently told me.
"Isn't that obvious... after all, we are sisters. Isn't that right? Aria-nee-san?"
You still call me 'Nee-san', Chris...
Ah, Chris... Thanks, Chris.
Thank you for not rejecting me.
Thank you for hugging me.
Looking at Chris, who was giving me a gentle smile, I started crying again.
But these weren't sad tears... They were happy tears, something I hadn't cried in a long time.
I have to properly tell her what happened to Lily-chan and Finne-san.
The two of them were brainwashed by the hero just like me and have done a lot of terrible things.
If it was Chris, it could only be Chris ...
Because I think she will be sad about the two of them...
That's what apparently happened to Aria.
That's such a long story, you idiot. I don't care.
But Lily died?
That's seriously funny. And is it a joke that she went to see Aleph?
Aleph is here, right? It goes to show that a fool is still a fool even after death.
If she is charmed again by the hero even in the afterlife, then his existence will seriously become something to make me laugh.
I was listening to the story while posing with a sad face just in case, but there wasn't any useful information and I was about to explode.
You're only thinking about yourself!! Follow the example of a saint like me who was born to be of service to others, you stupid bitch.
You've been particularly persistent in telling me about the Hero's charm skill, but you know what? I knew it the moment I saw his face for the first time! Your information is way too old.
Well, that's me. I used my facial muscles to make a face that looked like I'd just found out the truth and said this.
"The hero... has such a dangerous skill? I can't believe it... So how about you Nee-san? (You became a hole just for Hayato. It was fun to watch.)"
"I see... That's right, Chris. The hero used his skill on us... And we did all those things to Aleph... Uuuh, uuuuuh..."
"Sister... (Your face has become ugly!)"
Ugh, what a terrible face she has. Tears and snot are all dirty... Don't come near me with that face, okay? You'll taint me.
I was in a good mood when I saw Aria's face become worthy of being called damn ugly. As I thought, this is just the right standard for a woman other than me.
I was pissed as hell when people said she looked like me, even though we were only related by blood, the most beautiful person in the entire universe. I'm twice as cute as the goddess.
Well, I guess it's about time?
I think I'll introduce this crybaby to Aleph. Hehehe.
Unwavering Chris (scum)
I finally made it back here.
