《The Bloodline System 》Chapter 352: Angy Gives An Explanation

"I know you have something to say... Go ahead first before I say mine," Gustav stated.
Angy paused her eating as she heard that and stared at Gustav with a wry smile on her face.
"I'm so predictable aren't I?" Angy voiced out.
"Hmm, well we wouldn't be here if you didn't have things to say," Gustav muttered as he gulped down some water and cleaned his mouth.
"Erm, the thing is... I- I wanted to apologize for stopping you the other day..." Angy said with a crestfallen expression.
"I know it seems like naivety but only did that because I know what it's like to have a little brother... Although your situation is way different from mine and your relationship with him is practically the opposite of mine with my brother, I still felt like you killing him would have been too much but now I understand something that I didn't get before..." Angy muttered as she stared at Gustav.
"However, even if time was reminded, I would still stop you if killing him would end up hurting you mentally..." Angy's voice suddenly turned solemn as she got to this point.
"You already have less faith in the world... The world failed you and turned you into what you are today. I'm not saying it's bad but I wouldn't want your personality to take a turn for the worse because of a decision I could have stopped. I would hate myself forever if something ever happened to you," Angy's lips trembled as she spoke.
"I understand why you would want to do it and I promise I won't stop you again if it's a normal circumstance but I will not allow you to kill a member of your family... If he comes close to you next time..." Angy raised her head and stared at Gustav with a decisive expression.

"I will kill him myself," She voiced out.
At this point, Gustav had his mouth opened slightly in surprise as after listening to Angy.
He stared at her hands and noticed that they were trembling slightly.
'Just how much courage did it take for her to decide on such a thing,' Gustav was really moved by her decision.
'I kind of figured she stopped me thinking I was going to get affected if I killed Endric... *Sigh* She's overthinking things,' Gustav said Internally.
"It's one thing to make this claim... But can you truly do it? Are you capable enough? Is your resolve strong enough and most importantly... Are you powerful enough?" Gustav asked in succession.
"I- I a-m... I mean, I can become strong enough to defeat him if I truly stopped holding back," Angy replied with a shaky tone.
"Hmm," Gustav didn't really doubt her statement because Angy really had a lot of potentials if she went full force but then this wasn't just a case of defeat. He still doubted that she had enough resolve to actually kill someone.
"Why are you so adamant in believing that my mental state will be affected if I was to kill Endric?" Gustav questioned.
"...Gustav can you tell me that you never shared any good memories with Endric," Angy muttered.
Gustav's mouth opened slightly but then he closed it back unable to say a word.
"If you can tell me that you never shared one good memory with Endric I'll never interfere with your affairs again," She added.
Memories began to flood into Gustav's head back to when Endric was just a baby.
He had started being maltreated at that time but he always felt happy whenever he sneakily went to his little brother's cot to play with him.

He remembered Endric's innocent and cute smile as a baby. When Endric was two years of age, he stood in front of Gustav to protect him from his parents' beating at that time.
Endric had already been confirmed to have an A grade bloodline so their parents treated him with so much care. When he started screaming and crying because of Gustav's maltreatment they had to stop whenever he was present.
Gustav was reminded of when his little brother was his source of refuge and happiness when he was still around the ages of one to five.
Everything began to change when Endric became a student of Echelon Academy and got promoted to a class beyond his age.
He remembered how Endric started to see others as lesser than himself.
Gustav's parents at that time didn't caution him and everyone around him kept singing his praises so his character started to warp into something more twisted.
Gustav tried his best to correct some of Endric's wrong actions when Endric bullied a classmate but it was practically him versus society.
Everyone praised Endric for his wrongdoings while Gustav chastised him. Endric liked being in the spotlight so he stopped listening to Gustav.
At one time Endric witnessed Gustav being beaten up without being able to fight back.
This was practically the turning point for Endric.
"Why do I have such a weak person such as yourself as my big brother?"
Gustav could never forget this question that was asked with a look of immense disdain.
From that point onwards Endric stopped protecting him and even became among those that assaulted him.
Gustav had a slightly conflicted look as these memories flooded in.
"Listen... Your little brother was surrounded by insane people like your parents all his life. He's twelve years old just like my brother so I think he still has room for change if he finds the right environment," Angy voiced out.
"Hmm, I had already given him several chances to back away but he still came back what makes you think he'll change?" Gustav asked with a slightly annoyed expression.
He didn't like the fact that he had to recall all those memories because it made him feel like Angy was right to have stopped him.
"He still hasn't been given a change of surroundings... The MBO training camp will be the best place for him to learn humility since he's not the only one who's special but if he doesn't like you said..." Angy slightly raised her right hand as she spoke.
"If he still comes back looking to kill you... Let me take care of it. I'll kill him myself," Angy stated.
"Hmm," Gustav leaned his chin against his fists as he placed his elbows on the table.
"Angy, I have a question for you?" Gustav said as he stared deeply into Angy's eyes.
"Oh, al-alright," Angy could feel her face burn up as Gustav maintained eye contact with her.
"Do you have feelings for me?" Gustav asked with a tone of mysticism.

A Fool's Journey, or the Vagrancies of a Man in Exotic Lands
What does a sad bastard do when fate, literally, decides to throw him into a fantasy world? Solon just wanted to lead a normal life; work, share some pizza with friends, work, play some videogames or read something, work, maybe sleep?, work... Pretty much the usual, rinse and repeat. It was far from perfect, but life was nicely boring and comfy enough. Truth be told, he had hoped it would go on forever, or until he got married, or until the apocalypse finally decided to bring an end to everything. As far as he could tell, though, the former was about as likely as the latter; not very. And perhaps even somewhat related, if it ever came to it. Unfortunately, he saw himself involved in some sort of cosmic fart that screwed him over, brutally severing his life-plan. Or, maybe, would it be more suitable to say that Fate had other plans? Sure, he's yet to find out exactly what those plans might be, but, at the very least, they do seem to involve him being shoved into another world, fighting off a couple of horrendous creepers, and -almost- an accidental liaison with a baboon. Needless to say, the job doesn't come with dental care, and death seems more likely than retirement... Yep, when he got yoinked out of Earth, there were no princesses waiting for him, no sexy goddesses, and no severe Gandalf-wannabes! Heck, not even a bunch of demonic cultists! All he got for the trouble was a bunch of snarky windows and the honest desire to punch whatever bastard happens to be behind the smug System. Well, that, and a few forced trips to the so-called Tower of Ascension. Not exactly what he would have expected but, on the plus side, he does get to do some magic. Though, not quite the wand-waving kind. Whatever. One thing’s patently clear, though, he’s certainly not the chosen one, nor the summoned hero, nor the Savior. If anything, he himself might be in need of some saving... Just what kind of fool does the System take him for? Please do consider the tags. Also, 'Strong Lead' here means weak to strong, over a decent amount of time, not op from the very beginning. Things to expect: decent grammar, cheeky goats. Things not to expect: Harems, a decent sense of fashion.
