Chapter: Chapter 90
“Really, look into my eyes and repeat what you just said.” Kira stared at Reticia’s black eyes hidden beneath her hood and said without question, “Do you dare, big sister?”
Reticia shifted her gaze away, feeling guilty. She couldn’t lie under Kira’s gaze.
This was her greatest weakness.
“So, you don’t deny it?” Kira chuckled, but quickly composed herself. She had never seen her sister so flustered before, so a little lapse in composure was understandable.
It was difficult for Kira to control her emotions upon reuniting with a family member who had been missing for so long.
“Although I want to ask more, can you tell me Reticia’s true identity first?”
Kira couldn’t imagine that the human who partnered with her sister was an ordinary person.
“Ah, this…” Reticia looked at Bai Ling with a look of helplessness. She hadn’t expected to be exposed so quickly.
That one slip of the tongue had completely ruined her entire day’s plan.
“Her friend, that’s all.” Bai Ling disdained Reticia’s quick failure. She had thought Reticia could act longer, but within a few sentences, Kira saw through her.
The Demon Lord wasn’t good at acting.
“It’s fine if you know about that matter, big sister, but Bai Ling is human.” Kira said to Bai Ling very seriously, her attitude unwavering. “However, I already know where you live. We can’t talk about it here, but I can come talk to you tomorrow.”
“Kira, give me some time to prepare. Is this thing very troublesome?” Reticia, knowing she couldn’t keep up the act any longer, no longer bothered to disguise her voice. “If it’s too troublesome, I’ll pack my bags and run away tonight.”
Hearing her sister’s voice, a trace of nostalgia flashed in Kira’s eyes. So many years had passed, yet her sister’s voice remained the same.
Novel Circle 286 ⑨5⑨ 307 As for running away? Kira stated that now that she had found Reticia, she would never let her run away again.
“Of course, it’s not troublesome. To be honest, it’s actually very simple.” Kira said to Reticia with a smile. “It’s really, really simple.”
That devilish smile tightened Reticia’s heart. Her intuition told her that Kira was lying, and this matter was definitely a big trouble.
“Believe me, big sister. When would Kira lie to you?”
No, I feel like you’re definitely lying to me! Reticia shouted inwardly.
“Hurry up, someone is coming this way.” While the two sisters were engrossed in their conversation, Bai Ling sensed a few unfamiliar auras rapidly approaching.
The voice of One-Eyed Dragon came through the earpiece, “Tsk, Xiao Bai, hurry and retreat. Some impatient heroes from the Hero Association are coming.”
“Didn’t we agree not to enter until the time comes?” Bai Ling frowned slightly.
“But there are always ignorant fools who are deceived by villains. There’s nothing I can do about people like that.” Looking at the heroes rapidly approaching the trading location on the surveillance screen, One-Eyed Dragon sighed.
The Hero Association’s management of powerful heroes was truly questionable.
Besides, she was a civil servant of the United Government and couldn’t control these overenergetic heroes.
“How many have arrived, and what’s their strength?”
“Four, all S-class, but ranked lower.”
“En.” Bai Ling nodded, then called out to Reticia on the other side, “Xiao Hei, it’s time to go.”
“Xiao Hei? When did big sister get such a perfunctory name?” Kira tilted her head, asking with some confusion.
“You little brat, don’t ask questions you shouldn’t.” Reticia, throwing caution to the wind, gave Kira a “sister’s care.” “Bai, how many have arrived?”
Kira covered her small head, tears welling up in her eyes. “Bad sister!”
Unfortunately, her words were drowned out by Bai Ling’s reply.
“Four, S-class, they’re almost here.” Bai Ling looked in the direction of the approaching auras. “Should I go take care of them?”
Four S-class heroes shouldn’t require much effort to deal with.
“Bai Ling’s strength is truly terrifying.” Hearing Bai Ling’s matter-of-fact tone, Kira, who had just wiped away her tears, twitched her eyes twice.
Four S-class heroes were no small matter. Even top-tier powerhouses would need some effort to deal with them.
But Bai Ling’s calm tone made it feel as if defeating these four S-class heroes was as easy as drinking water.
This strength was quite intriguing.
“She’s even more capable than you think.” Reticia sighed. “Forget it, there’s no need to fight here, let’s go.”
She turned to leave, but Kira gently pulled her hand.
“Kira?”
“I won’t let you escape again.” Kira stared at Reticia and said word by word.
She was afraid her sister would disappear again. Now that she had finally found her sister, how could she let go?
“Now is not the time to throw a tantrum, Kira, let go quickly.” The approaching auras were getting closer and closer, and Reticia quickly persuaded her. “I promise I won’t run this time, okay?”
Only in front of her sister would Reticia appear so submissive.
But Kira’s attitude was firm. “Even if you hang me on a tree later, I won’t let you leave my sight again.”
You little brat, you’re still holding a grudge!
“Don’t you know where I live? Can you come find me tomorrow?”
“Sister Xue’er is very capable, I’m afraid I won’t find your real residence, and one night is enough for you to run away.” Kira shook her head. It only took her sister less than ten minutes to escape back then. One night was enough for Reticia to escape to another world.
“It’s too late to run now.” Bai Ling sighed. With Kira’s delay, Reticia’s plan was completely ruined. The escape that was supposed to happen had now turned into a head-on confrontation.
Swish, swish, swish, swish, four heroes in different attire leaped down from the sky. In an instant, their attention was drawn to Bai Ling, who was alone.
Black clothes, a briefcase, and a person in white clothes arguing with a little black-haired girl.
This should be the target of the operation.
“Sigh.” Reticia also sighed when she saw the four heroes. “The plan is a complete failure.”
“Big sister has never been good at schemes.” Kira still had the mood to joke. “But, even if I hang on you, big sister can still easily defeat these people, right?”
“You little brat, you’ll have yourself to blame later.” Seeing that Kira had no intention of letting go, Reticia glared fiercely at her sister.
“Oh?” Kira glared back unceremoniously. “I haven’t even settled the score with you for running away with such a heavy burden on me.”
