Chapter 261: The Big Star Who Loves The Small Star
The Big Star Who Loves The Small Star
Squeaak
Frey opened the tightly closed door and gazed silently ahead.
.
Aria sat cross-legged on a chair in front of a desk.
Excuse me
Feeling Arias chilling gaze, Frey awkwardly scratched his head and asked.
Who are you?
His expression was of pure innocence, but Aria simply stared coldly at him.
I went along with it earlier because I was startled, but I really dont know who you are.
Enough, brother.
Aria sharply dismissed Freys last-ditch denial.
You know very well that in this entire empire, only two people are roaming with stellar mana, right?
..
Understand? Then drop the pathetic act and sit down.
While Freys disguise was perfect, he had not concealed his stellar mana.
He hadnt expected his sister to find his hiding spot herself.
Also, hiding stellar mana wasnt easy.
It could be intentionally suppressed to go unnoticed by ordinary people. However, deceiving Aria, his companion for over a decade, was nearly impossible.
The room was saturated with stellar mana, as he had abused the Protection of the Stars last night, making it hard to hide.
What are you doing here?
Aria glanced around the room filled with stellar mana, giving Frey a displeased look.
.
However, Frey stayed quiet, just gazing at her.
Remove that disguise, will you?
Staring at him coldly, Aria grumbled in a low voice while Frey slowly raised his hands to his face.
In an instant, his original face returned.
Who made that disguise for you?
I dont know.
Frey responded uncooperatively to Arias incredulous inquiry.
Fine. If thats how you want to play it.
Aria hadnt really expected any answer, so she glared at him in silence, getting ready to speak again.
Thenhmm?
She tilted her head, cautiously reaching for the window she had closed earlier.
Tsk, shouldnt have bothered checking.
She lifted the curtains slightly, spotted soldiers stealthily approaching the inn, and scowled.
Ah, ah, Ill inform the troops.
She pulled out a magical communication device and started talking.
Ive received a tip about Freys location. He was spotted about five kilometers east of the inn. Investigate immediately.
Aria?
Shut up.
Ignoring Freys attempt to speak, Aria ended the communication. She observed the soldiers retreat from the inn and then closed the curtains.
Just to be clear, Im not rescuing you.
Turning to Frey with an icy expression, she clarified, I just want to know the truth, so I bought us some time.
Thanks for saving me, Aria.
Ugh.
Freys relaxed smile and provocation only fueled her irritation, causing her to clench her teeth and glare at him.
Answer my questions truthfully from now on, brother.
I already know almost everything.
Frey nodded quietly at her.
So, the first question. Youre part of the Demon Kings army, right?
Yes.
No matter how much you deny it, its useless Ha.
Seeing Freys easy admission to her first question, Aria looked at him contemptuously.
Dont you realize the severity of the situation, brother?
Her rebuke cut through Frey, who closed his eyes and sat silently.
The second question. The limited time it was all a lie, wasnt it?
Aria glared at Frey as if wanting to kill him. She subtly asked her next question.
Right?
Unlike her usual tone with Frey, her voice quivered slightly.
Correct.
Haa.
Frey nodded quietly, and Aria sighed.
I knew it.
A momentary relief flickered across her face.
You are no longer a noble. Youre just a commoner.
Frey smiled slightly at her words.
Dont ever set foot in the mansion again. Following the Order handed down in the family, I decree a permanent banishment for you.
Unaware of his smile, Aria gathered stellar mana while wiping away her tears.
And
Are you trying to kill me, Aria?
Before she knew it, Aria had conjured numerous weapons made of stellar mana, all aimed at Frey.
Really?
Each one was sharp, potentially lethal magic.
I-I wont kill you I will make you live as a commoner and suffer as much as the evil deeds youve done
Aria maintained her firm stance, holding her magic in place.
So, are you trying to kill me?
Eek!
As Frey stood and walked toward her, she readied her magic.
Youll leave me half-dead and deliver me to the Church or the Imperial Family?
I-Im warning you dont come any closer.
Just kill me now, why dont you?
Dont come any closer!!
Watching his sister step back in disgust, Frey smirked bitterly. He then started to lift the evil energy embedded in his black left arm.
Why dont you join me in burning the world
Dont come any closer!!
At that moment, her stellar mana exploded in all directions.
Cough, cough
Thrown against the wall by the shockwave, Frey clutched his heart and quickly approached Aria.
Whew.
She had fainted due to the aftermath of her stellar mana exploding.
Silly girl.
Having lost control, she caused a mana outburst.
Or perhaps she instinctively detonated all attacks aimed at Frey.
Which one it was, no one could know for sure.
Im sorry, Aria.
It took him a while to escape his Villainization, and he carefully lifted her, holding her in his arms, murmuring in a trembling voice.
And also, thank you
His eyes shook intensely as he struggled to prevent the Villainization from bursting out.
You finally dont have to worry about me.
That day marked the first time Aria stopped worrying about Frey.
Its such a relief
Arias survival rate in the Fourth Ordeal was nearly zero percent.
Isolet Ill try to save her just hang on
Aria was the sole surviving blood relative and the one who vividly remembered the face of their long-deceased mother.
Freys face showed only joy at the thought of saving her.
Ill protect you, no matter what.
He pressed his face against his sisters cheek, whom he hadnt seen in a while.
I love you, my sister.
After receiving the prophecy, he whispered the heartfelt words he had never said before and gently laid her on the chair.
His eyes flickered slightly, but no tears fell.
Ill put an end to everything and then resurrect immediately to ensure you get a happy ending.
Frey, well aware of how those in the Third Ordeal often crumbled, muttered with determination and left the room.
I promise.
And then, silence fell.
.

Meanwhile
This is getting really complicated Even if the scenario ends, you might not be able to resurrect immediately, you know?
Possessed, the Sun God observed the scene quietly from the next room, holding her head and murmuring blankly.
W-What to do Its such a crucial matter; merely mentioning it could obliterate my divinity H-How do I convey this to them
Consequently, the innocent paladins hair began to tear off bit by bit.
Ugh
The Sun God, who hated dismal situations unlike his sister, continued groaning.
