Chapter 129: An Unexpected Benefit
“Yale, you have written in your face that you want to know that requirement. Don’t worry I was planning to teach archery to both of you from the start, but I want to see first your current ability, so I will teach you that later.”
Yale nodded, he was impatient to learn it, but he could wait a bit more.
After they finished eating, Wyba went directly to sleep, but Yale was checking the system.
“Name: Yale | Age: 13 | Origin Level: 12 |Origin Points: 195/195”
“Vitality: 200 | Strength: 200 | Agility: 200 | Intelligence: 200 | Wisdom: 200 | Dexterity: 200”
Yale started to receive a lot of notifications when eating, so he had told the system to stop notifying him when his stats increased.
The food cooked by a grandmaster chef was able to strengthen the bodies of a Novice Rank without any problem, Aiwai had done those dishes thinking carefully in how to help the growth of her little brother and little sister.
The top quality food had maxed Yale’s stats, except Vitality they were almost maxed, so it wasn’t a big increase, but the vitality had increased a lot more than the other stats as it was the lowest stat before eating.
The limits of the stats increased a lot more in the Novice Rank than in the Mortal Rank, for others that only mean that they had more room to improve in the same realm, but to Yale that was equal to need to increase his stats a lot more.
Yale’s impression from Aiwai increased a lot, Yale was a training madman, he wanted to get stronger the faster he can and the food cooked by Aiwai was perfect to that. The only reason Yale didn’t advance to the next star was that he was still lacking some Origin Points.
Aiwai wasn’t sleeping like Wyba; she was just seated looking at the sky.
“Thank you for the food. Besides the flavor, it has improved my body a lot.”
Yale went to Aiwai’s side and seated; he was very serious regarding anything that affected his power.
“You seem happier due to the improvement of your body than to having tasted the best food of your life.”
“That is how I am. Sorry if that breaks your dreams about a cute little brother but I have never been a cute kid like Wyba.”
Aiwai laughed before replying.
“You are right, you look cute on the outside, but your personality doesn’t fit. Wyba is really a perfect younger sister; she is cute on the outside and the inside.”
Yale nodded, everyone liked Wyba’s cuteness.
“If you know it, you should just focus on her; she will be very happy as she likes a lot being hugged. You don’t need to worry too much about me as I am used to be alone, and I don’t like being hugged nor something like that.”
For Yale it was alright if Wyba obtains all the hugs like always, he didn’t need any, for him being hugged by Aiwai felt too weird.
“Wyba is indeed just like I imagined a little sister, but I won’t ignore you just for that. Of you two, your personality is more similar to mine. You like to train hard to turn stronger and don’t like to be too dependent on others. Probably the only reasons for you to accept me as your elder sister are the benefits you can obtain and Wyba’s feelings.”
Aiwai hit the spot; those were indeed Yale’s reasons.
“If you know that, why are you treating me in the same way you treat Wyba. I can understand that you also pick me to avoid hurting her even if you knew what I was thinking, but I don’t understand why you still put effort to be more close to me.”
Yale felt weird that if Aiwai had discovered his intentions, she was still treating him that well.
Aiwai looked towards Yale with a gentle smile.
“As I said before, you are similar to me. I also used to be focused only on training, and I disliked relying upon others too much. At that time if someone dared to try to hug me, I wouldn’t have hesitated into putting an arrow in their heads.”
Aiwai laughed while remembering how she was in the past, some men who tried to touch her body had indeed ended with arrows in their heads.
“If I were in your current situation, I would have acted in the same way as you. That is why I want to be closer to you and help you; I can tell it thanks to my experience, you need someone like me more than Wyba.”
Aiwai felt that if she didn’t help Yale, she would end suffering like her. From the very moment he decided that Yale was his little brother, she would do anything to help him, the same applied to Wyba, Aiwai was decided to help her in any way.
“Hear my advice; it comes from my own experience. If you continue living as you do, years later you won’t have any good memory to remember, and you will regret it.”
Yale looked at Aiwai’s face, she was serious with her words, but she was looking to Yale with gentleness, Yale couldn’t avoid remembering his real big sister.
Yale had been a bookworm and then a madman in training, everything he did was in order to become strong. Even the time he lived in Trade City, he was only planning his next travel while waiting to be strong enough to do it. He could have made some good memories there with Oscro and Julie; he didn’t do it.
“I want that you also make some good memories, some happy memories to remember years later. My biggest regret right now is that I didn’t have any memory like that when I think about my past, I don’t want you to suffer the same.”
She had always been a loner, but after she grew up, she noticed that she just wanted to have a family with her same bloodline where others wouldn’t see her as an object as a strange phenomenon.
“I guess that you don’t plan to stay with me for a long time and you have your own plans. If you want to leave, I will allow you to do it after both of you have learned everything I can teach you. I understand that you will need a bit of independence to turn strong in the future. However, before that, I want that the three of us became a true family and made good memories together even if it is for a short time. That is all I ask in exchange for teaching everything to you; I always dreamed about having a family like you and Wyba.”
Aiwai hugged Yale’s back while speaking about her feelings and Yale didn’t say anything.
He knew that Aiwai was telling the truth and he had no way to argue with her. She will teach Wyba and him, and in exchange, they only need to live with her as a real family, most people would kill for such a chance. After all, Aiwai was the peak of the Master Rank, and her archery had reached the sage stage, she was even a grandmaster chef capable of making dishes with common beasts capable of reinforcing the body.
“I understand, the reasons don’t matter since I acknowledged you as my big sister, you are my big sister no matter what. Now I want to train, can you let me off?”
Yale was really planning to train; he wanted to reach the 3-star as soon as possible.
“Uh, I wanted to hug you until you become sleep, how can it be that you want to train now? I understand you, but that isn’t cute at all.”
Yale was thinking how to convince Aiwai that the fact he wanted to train wasn’t against her wish of a true family.
“If you understand me, please let me train. A family can have a hard-worker little brother! Wyba is the cute little sister, and you are the beautiful big sister. See, it is a perfect family, every one of us is well defined, the cute one is Wyba, I won’t take that role from her. Now, I need to train to fulfill my part as the hard-working little brother.”
Yale was hoping that the story he had quickly made was enough to convince Aiwai.
“You are right; a hard-worker little brother is also cute in a different way, I can accept that. However, I won’t let you off; you can train while I hug you. Since you are my hard-working little brother, I shall help you to turn stronger, and my bloodline is already matured.”
Yale didn’t understand the relation between training to turning stronger and that Aiwai’s bloodline was matured.
“You may not know, but training near someone with the same mutated bloodline in a matured state increases the training speed. The more near you are from me, the better effects for your training speed. If you want to train you can always ask me to hug you; I won’t refuse.”
Yale was at a loss after hearing her and tried to practice a bit.
The results were that his speed had indeed increased compared to before.
“Sis, you are the best.”
Yale forgot any weirdness about being hugged; he was bought with the increase of his training speed.
