Chapter 37: The Troublesome Little Sister
Haruto wandered around and didn't find anything unusual, so he went back home to sleep.
*CRACK*
Not long after he left, a small crack suddenly appeared in the sky.
Darkness, chaos, and evil aura vanished.
The next moment, the entire oddity area suddenly lit up. If someone looked at the Earth from space, they would see that the entire planet was suddenly covered by four large magical arrays.
And the cracked space instantly healed.
Faintly, a roar of anger could be heard.
Haruto, who had just fallen asleep, sensed the oddity movement and immediately reached threat level again.
However, the entire oddity area was still silent.
The large magic arrays also disappeared.
Haruto frowned slightly. He had clearly felt an abnormal fluctuation, but when he arrived, he found nothing.
He appeared high in the sky and stared at the Earth.
Suddenly, he raised his hand and grabbed something, and there was a dark, chaotic, and evil aura in his hand.
"What kind of energy is this?"
Haruto frowned, instinctively feeling uneasy.
This was the first time he had come into contact with such dark and evil energy. Even Hollows and Void Demons born in the oddity weren't this malevolent.
Unfortunately, this energy quickly dissipated in the world, and its source couldn't be traced at all.
"Is this the calm before the storm?"
Haruto whispered, remained silent for a while, and disappeared.
No matter what the future holds, at least for now... He had to cherish his current life and never regret losing it.
❀❀❀
Sunday.
Early in the morning, there was a knock on the door.
Just by listening to the irregular and very rough knocking, Haruto knew that the person outside was definitely not Mafuyu.
"Onii-chan, Nanako is here, ehehe..."
Opening the door, a small figure jumped directly into Haruto's arms. A helpless expression appeared on his face as he reached out to hold the troublesome creature called his little sister.
Kuromori Nanako, his sister from his mother's remarriage. She had just entered middle school.
She's short, likes to tie her hair into twin-tails, has a childish personality, is greedy, and loves to act cute.
Overall, very troublesome.
Outside the door, besides Nanako, there was a beautiful silver-haired girl who looked like a doll.
"So slow."
The girl wore a long white dress, a beret on her head, and had twin ponytails. Beneath her expressionless face, there was a hint of hidden displeasure.
If Nanako was very troublesome, then this long silver-haired girl had a personality so difficult it made people dizzy.
Haruto ignored the girl's displeasure, stepped aside, and said: "Sora, come in..."
Sora glared at him with disgust, walked into the living room unhappily, and then sat on the sofa: "I'm thirsty."
"The fridge isn't far, get it yourself if you're thirsty!"
Nanako ran over, opened the fridge, then cried out sadly: "There's unexpectedly no Coke."
"Onii-chan, I want Coke!"
Nanako puffed out her cheeks and said pitifully: "Mom doesn't allow me to have snacks or drink Coke at home. Without Coke, I'll die."
"There are no soft drinks."
Haruto said with a straight face: "There's barley tea, matcha soda, juice, milk, and green tea."
"I suggest you drink milk!"
Nanako lowered her head, then her cheeks puffed up at a speed visible to the naked eye, as sweet as a hamster stuffed with chestnuts.
"Onii-chan, I'm mad!"
Nanako pounded Haruto's chest with both hands. Unfortunately, she was short and her legs were short, so her strength was practically nonexistent.
"Short..."
"I didn't say that!"
"You said it."
"Go out for lunch at noon."
"..."
Hearing this, the greedy Nanako suddenly stopped talking.
Forget it if she hasn't eaten it. Finally, it's the weekend. If she still can't eat good food, next week will be exhausting.
After dealing with the greedy sister, Haruto took a bottle of milk and handed it to Sora.
Sora glanced at him, turned towards the TV, and said angrily: "I don't want milk, I want soda."
'Forget Nanako, she's young. And even though I'm the same age as her, he actually gave me milk. He clearly feels disgusted.'
Haruto had no choice but to say: "Sora, stop causing trouble. Your health isn't good. Drinking more milk will help you."
Sora turned her head and looked away, expressionlessly saying: "Soda."
Haruto: "😐"
In real life, there's no sweet and obedient little sister who calls Onii-chan like this!
Nanako would call Onii-chan sweetly, but only if she had a purpose, like food or pocket money, and she wasn't that rebellious.
"Sora-Nee, here you go."
Nanako ran over, handing Sora a bottle of soda, then puffed her cheeks and glared at Haruto: "Sora-Nee, ignore this idiot Nii-san, Nii-san is becoming more and more overbearing, hum..."
"Mm."
Sora responded and looked at Haruto with disdain.
Haruto remained unmoved.
This wasn't the first time he wasn't liked. After all, he wouldn't lose a piece of flesh, so just ignore it.
What else could he do?
Hit them?
He estimated that if he hit both of them today, tomorrow mom and dad would have to gather. He definitely wouldn't get beaten, but he would surely get scolded.
So troublesome!
Haruto looked at the time and said, "It's still early, I'm going to read for a while."
Nanako was unhappy: "All your beloved little sisters are here, but the stupid Onii-chan only wants to read, so be careful and stay single for life."
'If not? If I don't read, how can I deal with both of you? As for staying single for life, you don't need to worry. I just kissed Mafuyu-chan last night!'
Sora stood up and said, "I'm going to take a nap. Call me when it's time to eat."
"Onii-chan, I want to play games."
"..."
Haruto lived in a one-bedroom apartment, so of course, there was only one bedroom.
Sora entered the bedroom and unconsciously glanced at the desk. On the desk were a book, a desktop computer, a notebook, a pen holder, and floating on the wall was a shelf. The top was filled with books and various game CDs.
The bedroom wasn't large, but it wasn't too small either, so there was a wardrobe in the corner.
She could see a small river outside the window and cherry blossoms in full bloom.
The whole room looked clean and tidy, and the air was very fresh. Just like what's said on the Internet, a boy's room isn't messy, and there's no strange smell in the air.
Sora bent down and looked under the bed.
Naturally, the underside of the bed was clean and nothing was hidden.
Sora frowned slightly, then sat at the desk and opened the laptop.
She skillfully entered the password and logged into the desktop.
Sora opened folders one by one. After a while, she took a deep breath, her eyes filled with disgust and displeasure, and she deleted one of the folders without hesitation.
After doing this, she glanced at the door, showed a happy smile, then closed the laptop and went to sleep.
"Hah..."
"Good night."
Taking off her dress, Sora pulled the blanket over her, took a breath, then slowly closed her eyes.
