Chapter 34 Unamusing Reunion
Chapter 34 Unamusing Reunion
"Dammit,"
I quickly let go of the spiraling sources of water as I felt that if I continued to hold onto it any longer, my legs or arms would be ripped off.
FWOOSH
I tumbled into the water, feeling it enter my nose, mouth, and ears, and as it flipped me around, I quickly lost where I was.
My brain jumbled into a hot mess, eventually knocking me completely unconscious.
...
"Ugh... Where am I?" I muttered as I had woken up on a soft bed... a very familiar soft bed which I immediately recognized.
"Oh... are you finally awake?" A cold voice said as a woman with brown hair and hazel eyes entered the room, her arms crossed with authority and her gaze filled with hatred.
"What happened?" I asked, but the woman only clicked her tongue before letting another woman into the room.
Upon laying my eyes on the woman, I felt a jumble of emotions slowly unravel themselves like a ball of tangled yarn.
But, tons of other memories resurfaced as I quickly stood up and held up my guard.
"This woman right here... Miss Claydol saved your ass, so thank her quickly!" Amelia shouted, but it felt as if she was slowly fading out of my mind as the woman with dark blue hair and creepy pale blue eyes stared into my soul.
She was wearing some expensive armor, and her well-developed mana core almost barked at me as it recognized me.
"Why'd you find me?" I asked with my eyes squinted.
"Please leave," Her honeyed and angelic voice suddenly spoke up, and Amelia soon left the room, breathing a heavy sigh of exhaustion.
[Main Quest: Rise to Power]
[Description: The boiling anger of your abusive family can finally be taken out, but you might want to gather some allies first. Your family is strong, so strong in fact that you have no chance as you stand now. Your family has a myriad of high-tier adventurers, so plan and get strong. But, once you have become the head of your family, excrete the pollutants and build your family's reputation once again.]
[Reward: [???]
[Penalty Upon Failure: Death]
[Time Left: Five Years]
.
I glanced at my main quest, which endlessly floated in the corner of my vision as if taunting me and provoking me to get stronger.
"Sorry... but that's not possible. If I don't take revenge, I'll die... and if you don't want to be part of it, then don't associate yourself with the family anymore,"
"That's easier said than done,"
"*sigh*... Are you still on the path of revenge?"
"I am. I plan on taking revenge on our parents for abusing you, me, and my younger siblings. I'll be reforming the entire family, and when I become the head, please come back,"
"I was already planning on becoming the head, so that makes us rivals then,"
"No, please. I'm begging you... This might sound harsh, but I don't want you anywhere near the position of the head,"
"Ohhhh... You thought just killing the head would reform the entire family... Sadly, that's not how it works. You have to be authoritative and cut down on all the corruption spreading through the branches... And if you can't do that, then you don't deserve the position... There isn't just the main family,"
My sister shut up for a bit before glancing up at me with a determined smile.
