Chapter 23: Chapter 23: Battle Between Siblings (4) (Edited)

I feel weird, I feel weird; I don't know what's happening to me. My blood is boiling, coursing through my body; it's like it wants to leave me. My heart is beating too fast.

Looking at my sister, who's on the other end of the line, excitement makes my blood jump. My pupils dilate, I feel a burning sensation in my right eye, it hurts a lot, as if it's being forcibly removed.

My body hurts, it hurts too much; I feel too hot, my head hurts, it's very painful. I want to scream, but my pride won't allow it; I want to drop the sword and give up, but my blood won't allow it.

I feel like my body is undergoing a metamorphosis, it's changing, I know, but I'm not sure what's changing exactly.

My heart beats faster and faster; I feel like time around me is stopping, I see everything in slow motion, I can hear my heartbeat, I can hear my blood traveling through my body, I can feel everything around me. I feel my sister's presence; I can feel my blood jump with excitement, I can feel how my blood reacts in the same way.

I feel something growing in my head; I'm not sure what it is and I don't care. Right now, my concern is to defeat my sister.

Moving my feet, I reach my sister's front in an instant; my aura around me becomes more aggressive and expands.

Metallic sound!

Moving my sword to attack, my sister manages to react in time; I feel the swords that had lasted until now break.

By pure intuition, I conjure a sword entirely made of aura, as dark as the night itself; my sister does the same, but hers is blue.

Disappearing again, she positions herself behind me.

I can feel it, I can see it, I know where she is; Turning quickly, she reacts in an unnatural way and I manage to connect with her sword accurately.

Metallic sound! Auge!

Behind my sister, small ice spears form and are thrown towards me.

I move my sword to intercept all the spears and run forward, surrounding my sword with aura; Black flames consume all the cold air forming around me.

Quickly creating a new sword in my right hand, I make an unexpected strike.

Metallic sound!

Trying to block my surprise attack, her posture falters for a moment.

Letting out a painful groan, she falls to the ground; Taking advantage of my advantage, I kick her in the right arm, breaking her bones.

Rolling on the ground, she quickly gets up.

She disappears once more, but I can follow her with my eyes; Reacting, I defend myself from her attack, which was much weaker than the previous one.

Adjusting my stance, I perform my footwork to attack from below with the sword.

Putting all my strength into this last attack as I feel like I won't be in this state for long.

Metallic sound!

I manage to make her drop her sword; Quickly I place my sword at her neck.

With a bloodied smile.

"I won," I say.

My sister deactivating her line returned to its usual color and eyes. She nods.

"Indeed, you won," she said.

"According to our agreement, you must fulfill one of my requests," I say, although it's weird, she was definitely much stronger than me.

"Yes," she says.

"The truth is very simple. I want you to forgive me," he said.

She opens her eyes surprised; I see how they widen in surprise.

"I know I was a terrible person. I'm aware of it, I was stupid."

Nodding slowly, I see him pressing his fists, hesitating for a few seconds before saying.

POV Emily

I was confused, angry, and happy at the same time. The memories of the past still hurt me; I was very resentful with him during all these years. Whenever I tried to start a conversation with him, he ignored me. But it wasn't because I hated him; it was because I was still angry with him, with his attitude, with the way he talked about our parents.

But at the same time, memories of him being warm and protective with me ran through my mind. During those six months, it was strange to see him training every day. His change was strange, everything was just very strange. The change I know, for better or worse, changed. Somehow he's better now. During the duel, I didn't use all of my aura or mana; I knew that if I did, he would lose. But I wanted to see what he wanted, I was curious.

Upon hearing his words, I didn't know how to respond; my mind was in chaos. But my father once told me that everyone deserves a second chance. I remember how I came crying to my father's office when I was little; he hugged me and gave me some advice. I was crying because my brother had treated me badly.

Looking into his red eyes, I decided to trust him once again. After all, as my father always said, there are always second chances.

"Yes."

***

I was sitting, looking at the dark sky covered with stars, to be honest, it turned out better than I expected. This is definitely a step in this world," I said with a tired smile on my face. "My relationship with my family took a very drastic turn; This never happened in the novel, but now I made it

Still, I couldn't shake the feeling that my sister hadn't used all her strength. In other words, she let me win. I didn't understand why, but I shrugged it off. The outcome was good nonetheless; it was what I had been aiming for after all.

The reason I was leaving tomorrow was because my parents were not at home. Looking at the starry sky was very beautiful.
