11. Who Are you

  Hmmm hmmn??~

  Watering the grass on the pot and touched their small long leaf, YueQi could see that it look as green as usual.

  Seeing that its 10pm already, she hesitated.

  Opened her door, she come to her sister door and stand there without moving.

  She's so nervous!

  She plan to say thank you about the matter at school.

  Yet here she is, can't even knocked a wooden door.

  How long have she been standing here?

  She didn't know, but what she know is, that strange sound come from her sister room again.

  Should I eavesdropping?

  Slowly inched her ear to the door, YueQi could hear some murmur.

  "the... You need... Don't forget..."

  "...none of your business..."

  "remember... Mission.... Beast tide.."

  Gasp!

  What should she do?

  She's afraid if she move now, her movements will be noticed by the people inside. Yet if she didn't move, what if she hear more and then they opened the door, seeing me eaves dropping their talk, and then proceeded to silenced her?

  Her feet tremble a little.

  Beast Tide.. Is a scarry occurrence in this world, ten thausand of Wild Creatures will come in group, attacking human dwelling.

  Those with weaker strength and without tall people to protect the city wall, won't be able to come out unscathed.

  She didn't know much about why she come to this world. But the day she come here is 8 years ago, where a Beast Tide attacked T-City Wall.

  Her sister Yue also seem to be gone during that chaotic incidents....

  Is her sister, inside... Planned to artificially make a Beast Tide... As a mission?

  No. No..

  Don't be pessimistic, don't think badly of her.

  She's not that kind of sinister person, or else she won't be safe until today.

  At least she couldn't feel any hatred from her.

  How could someone who willing to protect their nominal sister be the kind who kill other peoples indirectly?

  Recalled the many scream and blood with limb littered around, YueQi had the urge to dry heave.

  It seem that the people inside hear some of her movements, even though she covered her mouth and holding back.

  Panicked, Her leg gave up and she sit down hugging her trembling body. My tears streaming down unconsciously.

  Please... please don't come out.

  ?

  Click.

  Stolen from its rightful author, this tale is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

  The door opened and Shen YueQi see a Male's Boots in her vision.

  Her face turned pale instantly.

  "who are you?" a male voice sounded above her head.

  Looked up, she never seen such a pair of eyes.

  Its like... he's not a human being.

  The cloaked man reached his arm toward her, and she blank out.

  "..."

  Seeing that Ororon opened her door without her permission, Shen Yue didn't have time to stop him. "who told you to open the door?!"

  "Someone fainted.", Ororon said on his knee, tried to see the unconscious girl's wellbeing.

  ?

  Massaging the bridge of her nose, Shen Yue said, "Its because You are scaring her!"

  "...sorry, I didn't mean it."

  "I'll take her to her room later. About the mission, I'll do it, so don't worry.

  Remember this girl have nothing to do with us."

  "Okay. I'll tell Grandma later." Ororon opened her windows and jump out, blending in the night.

  Sigh

  Carrying her sister body back to her own room, Shen Yue take some ice, wrap it in towl and put it in her sister forehead.

  Caressing this girl whose face are very much her own, Shen Yue let her finger slid down to the girls neck.

  "Who are you?"

  "..."

  "You shouldn't be here."

  "..."

  There's only silent in the room.

  Seeing that her little sister gonna take a long time to wake up, Shen Yue walks away, closed tge door, and made way to her own bedroom.

  Locked the door, Shen Yue touched her tattoo on her left wrist and muttered some word.

  A spatial energy vibrated and a portal appeared.

  ShenYue walk inside unhesitantly and then the portal closed.

  "..."

  The room becomes silent with only the Moon in the sky, watching all of this.

  ?

  ===;===;===;===;===;===;===;

  *The next day*

  "Dad, I want to live outside."

  Before Shen dad could answer, Mother Shen got annoyed and her cutlery make a clatter sound. "why so sudden? Are you feeling mistreated by us? Do you want to pick on A-Yue? Answer me!"

  "It's not that..." Shen YueQi lowered her head.

  "My Beast Pet will get bigger and it make so much noice everyday. I.. I'm thinking of living outside so that we wont disturb you..."

  "Do you think its so easy to buy you a pice of land with a house in the city?! How much would that cost!"

  "Enough! We are eating right now, stop yelling!" Shen Dad word makes mom no longer raised her voice.

  "Qi-er, let me remind you that dad will only financially support you, until you are going to college.

  If you want, dad could buy you a piece of house with some land near the city wall, its cheaper and not many house built there.

  You should know the reason for it, because when a beast tide appear, it will be the 2nd place to brace the brute force of their attack.

  If you are willing, I'll buy you a land of 90.000 m2, enough for beast under 300meter to play. Your Beast shouldn't be that big. Even if you Contract a big behemoths later, you could expand your land without any issues.

  In exchanges, dad won't give you any pocket money starting next month. If you agree, just nod your head. Don't say that dad are merciless, as an adult, you should be self sufficient."

  Shen Yue paused her eating.

  She doesn't need to guess that the reason her sister want to move out are probably the last night accident.

  "Thank you dad, I hope it'd be done soon."

  "Good. I'll try to do it in the next 2 day."

  Finished eating, shen Yue said goodbye to her parents and sit in the back seat of uncle San car.

  "Miss Yue, do you want us to go now?"

  "No, wait for my sister."

  "Sure, no problem." uncle san nodded. Its unusual he thinks.

  Looking at the car mirror, this Miss Yue who just comeback is very cold. Totally not like those naive innocent girls.

  As if, she has undergone something terrible...

  Shen Yue who closes her eyes suddenly opened them and looked straight at the driver, "what's wrong uncle?".

  Feeling embarrassed getting caught peeking, he hurriedly apologize, "Nothing. Apologize for my rudeness, miss."

  "Hmmn."

  15minute later, Shen Yue heard another knock, and sure enough her sister is coming.

  Shen Yue glanced at her and she could see that YueQi's hand grip the seat belt tightly, "I'm sorry, I fed my Taotie just now..." she said softly.

  "No need to apologise, its normal to feed the Pet regularly. Where's your bag? I thought you forgot it and run to get it back."

  "haha... My bag is with LanLan.. I never seen you fed your snowflake, sister..."

  Straightened her sitting, Shen Yue replied, "Snake doesn't need to eat everyday".

  Seeing the girl flinched just by her moving,

  "..."

  Sigh

  Shen Yue wonder if her sister previously live in a world full of peace...

  ===;===;===;===;===;===;===;

  The results from yesterday Exams come out.

  She got 10th in writing, and 3rd at Beast Taming ranking.

  Her sister is also doing good. 22th in writing, and 12th at Beast Taming.

  Her friend, LanShi isn't it? She must be a smart kid. Scoring 7th in writing, but her score for Beast Taming is a bit low, below top30.

  Seeing her sister laughing and whispering to her deskmate like normal girl, they must have a very good relationship.

  Is she showing a timid, nervous, scared expression to stranger only?

  It seem that her sister also look more cheerful and easygoing around their family member.

  LanShi is very popular among the Regular class, many students congratulating her about her grade.

  She seem to be friends with everyone else too.

  ?

  Looking at her sister who just sitting there, without anyone else took her to join their conversation, except for LanShi, Shen Yue frowned.

  Normally, its been 2 years since they became classmate, why does her sister not close with them?

  Someone tapped her shoulder, and Shen Yue look back.

  "Shen Yue, may we have a talk for a moment?"

  "Huh? Yeah sure. What is it?"

  ?

  "In our class only the 2 of you siblings able to evolved your Pet so fast. How did you guys do it?"

  The other girl said, "yeah, my parents hire a Junior Breeder for my Pet's Diet, but mine hasn't evolve yet."

  The other girl sit in the table and complained, "me too! It cost so much money just to make the more nutritional feed, so that the body could absord it faster. ALAS, if this continues, our Pet will probably evolve 2 month later."

  why should I tell you guys? Do I know you?

  "... our big brother are Senior lv Breeder and he has many friend in the same field. So he know a lot about our Pet situation."

  Sorry to use your name brother Yuan.

  "Ehhhhh..." x3

  "No wonder. Its the first time we heard it."

  "That's right! That YueQi never say anything at all. She should have introduced her bother to us, he must've talented."

  "why did she keep silent? Wanna be the center of attention?"

  "I guess so, if there's no new student coming to our class, she's gonna be the 'only-one' who have her Pet evolving.

  Chances for her to get picked up at School Team is higher.

  But with her personality, will she trembling when doing competition in a stage, watched by many people?"

  "lol"

  "stop it, that's so funny hahaha!"

  These girl keep laughing as if the topic of their classmate are their greatest joy..

  Bam!

  The 3 girls who gossiping startled by the harsh sound.

  "I'm still here. By the way, next time I see you say anything bad about my sister, watch out. A snake always lurking their prey", ShenYue say threatenedly.

  The girls swear off annoyed and then goes back to their sitting, whispering while looking at her.

  Shen Yue don't care much about them, but indeed, her Snowflake is special case.

  With the help of Ice Dragon Heart, the energy absorbed by her Pet are huge, and very pure, making Snowflake grow faster to the point of strong avatism.

  Shen Yue doesn't even use the 2 awakening stone her dad gave her.

  But.. How did her little sister do it?

  She must ask Ororon later, to see if he could see anything on her sister soul.
