《My power is actually really OP you know》17. What is happiness?
Advertisement
That girl's hair slightly bounced in the air. I'm not sure if it was actually real or an illusion.
She is my sister, her ability rubbed off me, if there was someone who could affect me, it is my family.
Not too much effect though because she is only my little sister. Her power was based on me, not the other way around. But from what I gather, her power seems to be a grand illusion, like the one I have accidentally trapped this world in.
Though in my case, illusions are replaced with reality. Nessie's abilities are completely illusionary.
She is not like me. She is capable of grand thing, but she can never be me, surviving through the collapse.
That was why Nessie died. She didn't survive space closing down on her on all side. Even if her illusions are great, at the end of the day, they are still illusion, how can it helps her if the universe around her is collapsing .
She didn't ask for my help, not even one. Even when everything has gone too shit, she knows that I have my own reason for not using my power...
Or at east that is what I think! What do you mean none of the top tier know of me? What the heck is that? I just realize that after encountering Lilith and the timeline-puncher guy's lackey. They didn't even recognize me. Did my sister even know how great my power is?
What was even my reputation in the previous world? I should be like their God or something, but now, no one even know of me.
Anyway, I have the ticket, so I could actually go backstage and met Nessie.
Right now though, I'm in a pickle.
A slender man wearing an old-fashioned cap was blocking my way. Boys these days, all of them like to dress like they are in some kind of boy band.

Though this is the backstage of a concert, they may actually be in boy band. This is a one woman show though, so even if they are in a band, they are some kind of of opening act lackey.
My sister's lackey to be exact.
And if you consider my little sister to be my lackey, they are my lackey's lackeys to be exact.
"Let me through, I have a VIP ticket."
"Where did you get that ticket?"
"My friend got it for me, let me through."
"I don't think so pal."
The boy in a boy-band wouldn't let me through no matter what. At the last moment, there was a voice
"What is the commotion? Ig you are up in five."
We both, the boy and I look over to the source of the voice.
"Nessie?"
There was a sound of mic dropping
"Oh god."
In front of me was my sister's Agnes who clearly recognized me.
After a few days staying with my sister, I realized I was silly.
No matter how much I wished for it, she was not my sister.
Finally, it seems it was I who was under a grand illusion. That girl was not my actual sister. I was just looking at something I wanted to see.
The real Nessie was much younger
"It was five years ago since you went missing. A lot has changed since then."
My sister was not as powerful with her power so as to be able to hold me under an illusion.
"What are you talking about? Oh god brother... All of those 5 years you have been living in that condition."
Later on, Agnes calls somebody, the conversation can be summed up as
"Is he okay?"
"The diagnosis is still inconclusive. There seems to be a consciousness behind that outer appearance, he is just not the person you know any more.

...It has been five years."
And the most important part was that:
My sister is already dead.
This cannot be my sister. This is this universe's version of my sister. There does not exist this universe's version of me because I have replaced his existence.
When the universe was made up wholesale, some of the previous memories of the old world was brought over.
However, that still brings up the point.
They are not the same person.
I literally cannot accept it because she is literally someone's creation. It is no better than any of the history I have created, or any person I have created.
I literally cannot accept her as a person, that applies to everything else not from the old universe in this world too. Especially someone as important as my sister, I cannot accept it.
One day, I told her that frankly.
"What are you talking?"
The vacant stare she gave me just breaks my heart. She is not my actual sister alright, and I know her secret too. She is a pretty strong ability holder too, whose power is deprived from me. She can go far and wide.
She can go alone though, because lately she didn't allow me to go anywhere.
She locked me up inside the house.
I have more freedom when I was living on my own.
"Rising Star's secret?"
"Angelica cancelled her world tour for a family emergency?"
"Who is this man with Angelica and Ig? A family member or someone else?"
"Ig does not seem happy with this man at all. Read and find out-"
In the house, there was only magazine, even the high tech one like the e-newspaper connected to the internet. It is still just a tablet installed with a specific restrictive OS.
This situation cannot stand for long.
I need to get away from there. With the tablet, I think I can hack it and contact other people.
Staying here any longer just depressed me. I already decided that I would only do things that made me happy. The meaning of happiness has been slipping by me lately though.
I don't even know what I'm doing anymore. This is such a mess. Why did I even got involved with this hot mess?
Oh right.
She was my little sister in another world
