Chapter 34

“I need Ixion.”

The child’s voice was small.

But when the voice reached Ixion, it caused a wave.

“Can you be my oppa?”

It became a louder echo than thunder.

‘Why?’

Ixion stared blankly at Luatisha.

‘Strong…’

It can’t be, but the cotton ball smiling with a soft face felt stronger than any other being.

Ixion bit his lips tightly.

“You, you’re weak!”

Exclaimed by Ixion.

“Because you’re a weakling!”

“…….”

Luatisha’s expression became sad.

Is it the same again this time?

Your refusal that I can’t be a family because I’m weak.

It was the moment when Luatisha bowed her head with disappointment.

“······I’ll protect you in the future.”

I heard a small murmuring voice.

When I raised my head, Ixion was scratching the back of his head, avoiding my gaze.

“······Because I’m your brother.”

The boy’s face was slightly red when he said that.

Luatisha laughed.

[Quest <You have to rule the house first (1)> is completed]

[You will get a 3,000-cash coupon as a reward] 

[The mental state of the quest target, IXION, has stabilized!] 

[I admire your strength!] 

[The maximum influence on IXION!] 

[Additional rewards will be given!] 

[A new quest has arrived]

[Important!] 

[It’s a huge influence on one of the people who can change the future] 

[Congratulations!] 

[You can level up your characteristics!] 

A lot of words came up with a notification that the quest was completed.

The threat of getting off life disappeared and cash was obtained.

‘But more than that…’

Luatisha looked at Ixion.

The boy’s cheeks were still red as if he were ashamed.

However, he no longer avoided Luatisha’s gaze.

‘-I’m glad that Ixion accepted me as a family.’

Quest clear conditions.

Recognized by Ixion as a member of the family.

So now I’m really a family with Ixion.

“Ixion!”

Luatisha moved her butt to the side of the bed.

Pat pat!

When I tapped the empty seat next to me with a cotton fist, Ixion raised one eyebrow.

“What?”

“Let’s sleep together!”

Luatisha recommended with a big smile.

Looking at Ixion’s gloomy eyes, he didn’t seem to have slept a wink.

“Why do I have to sleep with you?”

“Huh? You’re supposed to put your sister to sleep.”

Honestly, I didn’t think there would be such a sweet brother in real life, but Luatisha said shamelessly.

“Really?”

“Yeah! You said you’d protect me.”

Ixion remained silent for a moment.

His red eyes swept through the soft face of Luatisha.

“… cannot. Because you’re a weakling.”

(tl: what ixion meant on ‘cannot’ here is, he can’t resist luatisha but it was just a murmur so the rest of the sentence wasn’t heard. i just don’t want anyone confused)

Ixion came under the blanket.

He felt a little awkward and felt a sigh next to him.

It was the first time for Ixion to lie in the same bed with someone or fall asleep together.

Luatisha lay next to him and stared at Ixion, who was groaning.

It was cute to see him feeling awkward.

‘By the way, he’s really handsome, too. You’re such a kid.’

“Ixion, hold my hand. You’re supposed to do everything for me.”

Ixion frowned a little, but held my hand silently.

‘Oh?’

Luatisha said, hiding a playful smile.

“Stroke my head.”

Lying down, Ixion stroked Luatisha’s hair gently one after another with an awkward touch on the back.

Luatisha smiled brightly.

“Then now, after rolling forward, back tumbling and clapping three times in the air-.”

“Do you want to die?”

Oh, he’s not falling for it.

“Then sing for me.”

“Stop, cotton ball.”

I guess it doesn’t work anymore.

Still, I laughed because Ixion, who is obedient, was unfamiliar and cute.

“Then I’ll sing for you.”

“What?”

“I refuse your refusal!”

But it was awkward to sing.

‘········ Shall I just quit?’

I looked at Ixion lying side by side.

There was an uneven expression.

When I was young, I wanted to have such memories at least once.

The memory of falling asleep listening to a lullaby that pats me and sings.

‘It wouldn’t be bad for me to sing it,’

I said.

Sleep well, my baby

The moon is here. 

Patting on the back, patting on the back

Baby, my baby

Who fell asleep, said hello to the calm sun. 

Good night, see you tomorrow

Good night, our baby.

(tn: this song is soo hard to understand, idk if there’s really a lullaby like this but if there is and this lyric is wrong, I’m taking the full blame T.T)

Ixion looked at Luatisha.

It was funny to see her singing quietly with her eyes closed. It’s definitely funny.

Ixion closed his eyes.

“······ Good night. See you tomorrow.”

I thought I couldn’t fall asleep next to others.

Sliding down, the warmth cast gently over Ixion and Luatisha like a veil.

It was a very sweet and comfortable sleep.

Chapter 8. -666

The forest where the sunlight shines.

There was a small spring in front of me.

I reached out in admiration at the beautiful scene like a spring in a fairy tale.

When my fingertips touched, a stir arose in the still spring.

And.

Splash!

The water went against gravity and poured toward me.

“ak!”

The scenery changed as soon as I was flustered by the feeling of falling deep into the water.

A sacred altar like ancient ruins of ancient times.

It was such a beautiful building that I was in awe just by looking at it.

Someone talked to me in the middle.

“Welcome.”

The white wings that spread out gracefully.

“The chosen one of Aphtanes”

**Make sure to read this in Travis Translations.**

A clean appearance that would be called a face of God.

“I’ve been trusting you–”

“Hey! I met this guy already!”

I jumped up.

“What? No…”

“You scammer! What are you pretending to be holy about!”

The scammer devil, pretending to be an angel, stepped back with a trembling face.

“T, this isn’t it. Why isn’t it working?”

“Why isn’t it working? Huh? I’ll fall for it once. Do you think I will fall for it twice?”

“Calm down for now, and you’re so excited right now. Let’s talk peacefully.”

“Yes, conversation is good. Let’s talk. A body conversation.”

I swirled around and picked up a stick.

It doesn’t matter if it looks precious.

The purpose of an object is determined by the will of the user!

“Come here.”

I spit on the palm of my hand, spit it out, and clapped the club – once used for sacred ceremonies.

Okay, it tastes good when it’s wrapped around.

The swindler took a back step, contemplating.

“Oh, no, it’s been a while since we’ve seen each other…”

“Yeah, it’s been a long time. Do you know how much I’ve missed you? Come closer.”

“Do you think I’ll get closer?”

The scammer demon shouted and forged up into the sky.

‘Cheap.’

I squinted at the appearance disapprovingly.

“You look a bit different from last time”

More accessories have been added and clothes have become more luxurious. I think his body grew a bit.

“Haha, What do you think? Can you see how noble I am?”

The devil lifted his chin and spun in the air.

It was really hard to see a swindler bragging about something good.

“Yeah, that’s cool. Come down first so I can take a closer look. Let’s take a closer look.”

“No, you’re going to hit me!”

Whew.

That’s why I don’t like kids who are quick-witted.

“If you didn’t do something right, you should get hit!”

Do you know how hard I’ve been through so far?

“You followed the contract under the name of a good Aphtanes! I gave you a golden spoon, a handsome dad, and even your ability!”

Oh, I have nothing to say when you say that.

Did you say that your grace is generous?

In the past, when I haven’t became close to my dad and brothers yet, uhm.

“But you’re going to hit me as soon as you see me! Take care of the tools first!”

He saw me cringe and shouted.

“Usually…Huh! You always say 0 stars! I saw you rate me 10 stars only when you see their handsome faces!”

When he said that, he confidently pushed his stomach out and put his hand on his waist as if I had shrunk.

“Handsomeness is welfare! You should be more satisfied! Of course, it’s 10 points! If you pick one, you should be a little handsome.”

Ha.

“Handsomeness?”

I didn’t hide my laughter.

“Oh, yeah, yeah, kiddo.”

What do you mean handsome?

Do you want milk?

“You’re a kid, too! You petty devil! If I get my body back, you’ll definitely…”

The screaming devil flinched.

Kugung!

The space began to sway with a loud sound.

“Oh, my. The time is already…”

He murmured, and clicked his tongue.

“Anyway, I picked one, contractor.”

Illustration got worse and worse.

Space expanded and contracted, and the world swirled.

“What, what is this? You didn’t say anything important yet.”

I tried to say something, but it was hard to stand properly, so I couldn’t say anything.

“Oh, oh?”

My body was helplessly sucked into the vortex.

The moment everything disappears.

“I believe that you will do well. My…”

I heard my faint voice.

I listened carefully, but soon it became dark in front of me and I couldn’t hear anything anymore.

It was a perfect darkness.

I was alone in the room and there was Arkitus in front of me.

I was about to organize my thoughts because I had an unusual dream.

“I saw a notification yesterday that I could definitely level up my characteristics.”

At the same time, I remembered the notification I saw last night.

[Congratulations!] 

[You can level up your characteristics!] 

[Will you level up now?]

Why are you even asking me this?

“Of course!”

[Put your hand on “Arkitus”]

I put my hand on the book as I was told.

At that moment.

Pwaaaaaaa!

A bright light burst from Akitus.

From my hands touching the book, something curly spread into my body.

The light began to intertwine and letters began to appear.

[Confirming the identity] 

[·· Contractor of <Afthanes> Confirmed.]

[We met the conditions] 

[Your influence hits the sky!] 

[The world resonates with you!] 

[Specialty <Rush and Cash> will be upgraded!] 

[Current grade ··E]
