《A book fanatic's Journey through a Fantasy World》Chapter 8: I am a siscon?
Advertisement
Oh its such a good day. I have been going to school for three years and I am eight years old now but this day is still one of my favorites, because today is a national holiday, it is not a popular holiday and there are no events but there is no school today which means I can spend all day looking after my little sis.
She has just become four so that means its almost time for her to get her name. To be honest I really hate that tradition. It is such a pain to only call her sis and her friends kids. I really want to punch the guy that came up with it. Most likely it is someone high up who didn't know how to name his kid so he just gave himself more time. And I think he is regretting his decision now.
I do got the say she really is so cute. She has long blond hair that she got from dad but here face looks more like mom's. I am pretty happy she looks more like mom then she looks like dad. Her blond hair does make her seems more cheerful then mom who looks extremely cold with her black hair.
I never knew having a real little sister is so amazing. It is not like have had no interaction with little kids on the contrary there where a lot of little kids in my orphanage but at that time I was pretty depressed and so where most of the kids. Also little kids get adopted pretty quickly so after a few times of having to separate with a kid whom I got close with I fell into a deeper depression. So to counter that problem I became extremely introvert and avoided a lot contact with other kids.
But now I don't have to fear her going away until she grows up. But that is not the only reason why want to watch over her. This reason being that I feel guilty, extremely guilty. By coming to this world I robbed mom of everything. Her position, her family, her real son...... The same goes for my sister because of me she doesn't have a grandpa, because of me she is not a noble, because of me she doesn't have a real brother.
It is just like with mom I don't think I will ever dare to tell them that I still have memories of my past life. I am so afraid of telling them. I am afraid of them, my first family, rejecting me.

It is for this reason that I decided that I would not let anyone of my family suffer. Even if a Devil wants to hurt them I will kill a Devil and if a God wants hurt them I will kill a God.
But enough thinking like this, it will ruin this day.
So I put on a big smile and call out to my little sister:”sis where are you taking me?”
She turns her head then looks around see if anybody can hear her and then whispers in my ear with a serious expression:”well big bro one of my friends told me he found a map to a treasure and so we are going to him and look for the treasure in the woods”
“The woods isn't that a bit dangerous, does mom know about it”, I ask.
Her enthusiasm dies of and she looks a bit down before asking me with puppy eyes;”But if big bro is with me then all will be oke-ay, you won't tell mom, right?”
Shit she got my weak point I must say no, I can do it just don't look into her big, perfect , cute eyes. I straighten my back and try to look serious. I take a deep breath and say:” I am sorry but we can...”,
oh god those eyes she is way to cute I can't restrain myself. My hand starts moving on its own into the direction of her head. I pat her on the head and finish my sentence,
“ Yeah like I said we can go. No problem as long as I am here.”, I am so sorry mom I just could not do it. I am a weak man.
After entering the forest she guides me trough it without getting lost even a single time.
“Sis it seems like you come her pretty often, does mom know about you playing here.”
As I finish my sentence I can see my little sister stopping she looks at me and I can see the fear in her eyes and the sweat drops gathering on her forehead. She starts to cling to my arm and starts pleading: “please big bro don't tell mom the last time she found out I played in the forest she taught me that I can never go into it again.”
When, she says “taught” I can hear the fear in her voice. Not being able to resist toying with her I say :” No you are not getting away with this. I will bring you to mom now.”

After I say that I can feel an evil smile being formed by my lips.
She just stops moving looks at me like I just ordered her execution and then takes a few steps backwards before falling down on her butt.
Note to self never piss mom off I don't want to know how she has been “taught”.
I can her faintly cry:”Please big bro, please.....;
I start running and say: “Come on we don't have all day to reach your friends.”
After a few seconds it seems like she understood that I tricked her and starts running after me whilst screaming:”Big bro you are such a meanie I hate you.”
After a few more minutes we reach the shack. As we enter I see group of kids sitting on the ground looking at a map. They all seem to be commoners.
“He-ya I have arrived and brought my big bro with me to help search.”
One of the bigger kids looks at me before saying:”thank you for helping.”
“No problem helping their little sister are what big brothers are for.”, I answer
The kid looks around and says:”Everyone has arrived, Super Treasure Hunter Squad move out.”
I am barely able to hold my laughter after hearing their group name.
All the kids jump up and let out a shout of joy and start leaving the house. I can see my little sister talking with a few other girls and boys and she seems to be really enjoying herself.
As everyone is leaving the house I can't help but feel glad that my little sister has found such a good group of friends.
It is almost time to return home. Just like I expected they found nothing. Not that it really matters but my little sister really did a number on herself. She is completely exhausted. I am holding her in a princess carry as we walk back home. As I look at her almost sleeping face it felt like I could look at this scene forever. Wait am I turning into a siscon, this is bad.
Well actually if turning into a siscon means I can spend more time with her I don't really mind. No stop thinking like a siscon. I am not becoming a siscon. I can resist it.
After a few minutes she falls asleep in my arms and oh god she just looks so cute. I can't do it, I have to accept that I am a siscon now.
After walking for another ten minutes I can see the edge of the forest. Wait who is that. I stop walking and get my guard up
The stranger calls out to me:” Little William I am a servant of your grandfather and he ordered me to come get you two.”
Wait grandfather I don't like where this is going. I stop walking and ask: what does that geezer want from me if I remember correctly he tried to kill and then kicked mom out of the family.”
I hear the rustling of a few bushes as three other cloaked men join up with the first one.
The man who I talked to then starts smiling and says:”Smart kid, your grandfather only needs one thing of both of you and that is your deads”, after he says that he and the three other guys charge at me with whilst drawing their swords.
So it is like this I put down my sister and place a soundproof barrier around her, don't want to wake her up.”
I start charging at the strangers and reveal my horns and tail. After doing that I clad myself in a protective aura of mana and infuse my fist with mana.
As the see the horns on my head I can see the fear in their eyes but they don't slow down.
As I think this the first one reaches me and tries to stab me. I manipulate the mana around me to form a giant demon-like hand to catch him. After catching him I hold him above me head before applying pressure. First I hear his bones slowly breaking and after a moment the the man turns into a big bloody pulp.
I trow the corpse away and gather mana in my finger. As the density level of the mana in my finger reaches a frightening level I release it at one of the cloaked man. He tries to dodge but the only thing he accomplishes is saving half of his head. To bad humans need a complete brain to stay alive.
After seeing their companions getting decimated the last hooded man starts running away. Perfect now I can try out this new trick. I start turning my body into mana and reconstruct it in front of the poor guy. This move is something like a makeshift smal distance teleport. After that I just send a thick wave of mana into his body ruptering almost al of his organs and bloodvessels, instanly killing him.
I teleport in front of the man who I talked to and start grinning before saying:” Speak up if you want your body complete for your burial.”
