Twin Reincarnation: Epics Of The Worldline

Chapter 124 124 Her jokes

[Lucy's POV: ]

"Hehehe, when I was on my way here, I stumbled upon a good-looking treasure so I was in the middle of looking at it with my lens. But then suddenly Ras came out of nowhere and I thought we would have a fun fight, but he was wounded for some reason. Like, he had a deep cut he couldn't heal with his skills, perhaps he met AJ somewhere.

Anyway, he was wounded but certainly not in his worst conditions. And since I was busy with that treasure anyway, I spared him with a benevolent heart and continued with my work.

He was curious about what I was doing, ah! He knew me, by the way. He asked me if I was Lucifer's 'sister'. Well, I denied it obviously and told him I was your everything, and he laughed, hehe.

And then~! We started the legen—dary~ conversation about how he's passionately attracted towards you~!"

She still has that smile, man… this is torture.

'She just rested in my lap for ten minutes after telling me she met Ras before coming here and these previous words were the first thing she had spoken after those last ten minutes of poisonous silence.'

She was obviously doing it on purpose, she knew how much it ate me up from the inside after hearing that Ras, the protagonist of this world of ours, 'liked' me.

It would be a problem if what she said literally meant only what she had said, but knowing this damn girl, I knew there was definitely something more to this liking than what she expressed it as.

'It could fuck up many things depending on what she actually means… and there's no way I'm gonna make new plans now! I am tired of this too now ugh!'

The protagonist having an interest in me, in any way… by the way, Ras is a normal guy. And he has been with a few women in his life until now in the murim world he came from so, there is no doubt he only swings in that direction.

'But perhaps it could change, no. That's not gonna change. Not at least until he receives a deep psychological wound and his mind is nearly broken and there is only some man to help him out of that situation.'

So nah, he certainly isn't going to go down that path. That would change the genre of his POV as well.

"So? El? What is this legendary conversation the two of you had?"

"Hmmm…"

Now, she was pretending to be asleep on my lap once again, this damn girl's gonna kill me with anxiety!

'This is even worse than being choked by her soft hands.'

She said he's passionately attracted to me, which might simply mean he considers me as his rival and that he would fight me once again without any restrictions the next time. There was nothing more than that.

But it was Ras we were talking about, he might have worded all that shit as if he is describing a passionate intercourse of an excited couple. But that was just how he was, we couldn't blame him.

But it was this constant smile on her face that pocked a needle right in my heart… and it was getting unbearably painful.

"El? Please? Can you tell me what you two talked about and what the hell did you do that you are so freaking happy, hun, ma'am? I'm dying here."

"Hmmm… a minute more."

"So you want me to die hunh? Just kill me then. Here's my neck. I would like a clear cut right from here to here."

It was just better to die than get tortured in this way. It didn't suit her anyway. Psychological tortures were my thing. She was better off with her tools and stuff.

"Haha baby boy, you are cute."

She moved around on my lap and looked at me with a happy smile of her own.

"Hehe, got you~."

She chucked for a moment, confused me with this strange action, and got up from my lap.

"He's actually interested in me-"

"I don't like that joke El."

He liked her? What nonsense.

She might be the one that created him along with the central brain but I have lived with him for long enough to know what that guy liked or would like and get attracted towards.

And in the first place, he was a widower. Someone who had only ever passionately loved a single person. And that too was a long time ago in that murim world.

After her death, he might have been with a few other women but never had he ever been actually interested in any other lady in a romantic manner.

His heart was a closed-off place that he allowed only a very few people in. There was no way in hell he liked her.

She was just joking. She had to be joking!

Or else I will have to have some serious talk with that motherfucker.

"Hehehe, yes yes, angry bird. I will stop with the joke. He wasn't interested in me, not romantically at least but he certainly was interested to know just how special I, the sister of someone who defeated him, actually was.

We thought about having a duel but I had to come here and he also had to recover and go find the bastard that surprised attacked him and managed to land a very lethal wound that he couldn't heal… oh, by the way, it was a vampire's attack so I told him what to do with it. He thanked me. And now he owes me one~."

"So… you were happy because he owes you one? Just that? Nothing else? What about him being 'passionately' attracted to me."

His owing her was a good thing. We can certainly use that in a few places. We can even show him the ways he could unlock some of his powers without going through the long process of releasing the seals and lifting the restrictions.

The matter at hand was more pressing. What was she hiding?

"Yup. Nothing else~."

"Really?"

"Yeah lol. Why are you asking again?"

"Really really?"

"Yes yes! I'm not gonna answer again!"

"You didn't curse at me so that was a blatant lie. You are too easy dear. Now, tell me. Tell me your entire legendary conversation."

She was easy when she was lying to me. She was innately bad at it for some reason. My cute little girl.

"Ugghhhh! Fuck you piece of duck shit! I was having fun!"

"Then have your fun after you tell me that thing! I will die otherwise! We have a freaking <D> rank dungeon to clear after this!"

"Don't tell that to your mommy!"

Yup. This was her. She was better like this.

And that little red flag smile on her face was gone so I could at least tell whatever she had wasn't as confirming as I was fearing. It should be something minor-

-Slap!

"Ahhh! That hurt!"

She slapped me out of nowhere. What the hell!

"Your punishment for running my fun!"

She slapped me because I ruined her fun, what the fuck? She ruined my inner peace and it doesn't matter? What is this, damn.

"Slap me too you idiot! Slap me!"

I fuckin knew she would ask me to slap her! She loved it when I slapped her!

But she tortured me with that thing of hers! She doesn't deserve a slap now.

"Not gonna. Tell me the story first. I will think afterward."

My face perhaps had four red finger marks and her handprint right now. That slap of hers hurt!

'Now I understand why she trains her palm and hand dexterity muscles. To do this kind of slapping.'

She will slap me and many other parts of my body in the future too perhaps. I will have to be prepared…

'Just thinking about it gives me shivers. Haaa…'

There were perks and there were punishments as well. But, they were sweet at the end of the day, so it was alright.

"Ugghh! Ok, listen…"

And so, she recited a long ass story full of many unnecessary sexual details that were baseless to the whole thing, and moments with Ras being Ras with his unique ways of wording.

But, it was pretty normal though. It only contained some thinkable things like how he was attacked so suddenly that he himself could barely react to it and survive that lethal blow. It could have eliminated any other person.

Then there was the fact that Ras had met up with Nes somewhere but they also didn't fight since she was with the two people on the top spot, so it meant Nes had also met with Rex and Cathy.

It was a good thing. We were going to meet with those two through Eva and the invitations she would get from their servants so this point would help me with the negotiations over there.

But, the most important point in her story was how Ras admired me now. A step beyond just a competitive spirit. And how he was determined to steal that top spot that I currently had.

He was actually, passionately, interested in me. And she wanted to use that and manipulate him into joining our family but she didn't go ahead with that idea since the future events required him to be on his own.

He had to reach a certain point by himself before we could have him as one of us, so before that, he was better off considering me as his rival. I wouldn't mind having him as a friendly enemy either.

It was good for his growth. And his growth would be the growth of this world and the things that are going to happen in the future would happen earlier, ultimately pushing us a little ahead with our plans.

So, it was good, and she was laughing because she was kinda sorta thinking of having Ras as her gigolo and making him do stuff that would push the two of us closer, and yada, yada. One can just think about how her thinking process goes with this much alone.

This was certainly not happening, so moving on…

"Alright, enough rest. Here, accept the party request."

"Nah. I reject. You will join my party. Not the other way around."

"Did you forget who won the bet? Check the leaderboard ma'am. I see my name having more points."

"That's only because I didn't put much effort! It was just too much fun waiting for the creatures to die in pain!"

"Your problem. Accept the request. You lost."

"Noooooooooo. Uhun, uhun, uhun!"

She was acting again, and I knew she would throw a punch at me anytime soon so, I was prepared this time, and when she was about to punch me, I blocked her hand, twisted it, twisted her, and kissed her forehead after pulling her closer.

"Join. Let's go kill that bitch and finish this thing."

"You are a bastard…"

She was shy now, typical El.

'Cute.'

Our destination was right behind our backs. The dungeon of the demoness who was captured by the previous owner of this labyrinth, the original dragon who spared her life because one of her children had taken a liking to her.

She was captured and impressions in this space and the wall that we were leaning against was actually a dragon seal that should be strong enough to only be perceived by someone like the headmaster.

But, even though he could perceive it, there was no need to hinder it since behind this place existed a dungeon, an actual unique structure that came to life after the dragon forgot about the demoness she had imprisoned for such a long time.

'She was left there and she couldn't come out so, she created her own little world inside there, harnessed the power of this labyrinth, and strengthened herself. Gaining enough strength in the process that she now possessed power beyond her rank.'

But she was still an original demon, so even as a dungeon boss of not so high-level dungeon, she was going to be a very difficult opponent.

And, our fight was going to be shown publicly by the system, so, when we reached the boss stage, everyone was going to see us.

And that is going to be the real legendary debut of us phenomenal duo, the ONE.

'This is gonna be fun, hehe. And after this… we can, finally…'

This was exciting. And tingling~.
