5 She Welcomed Them

02.30 AM

Keith comes home. As usual, Aunt Dora took the initiative to pick up that Little Fella because she really liked him.

At first, Aunt Dora willing to pick up Keith in the name of worry because she thought there's no way a 5-year-old boy could go home alone, let alone about his safety.

However, day by day eventually she found that little fella was really cute and obedient, later she becomes really fond that little fella and treat him as her own son.

"Er..."

Keith held Jane's arm tightly and his tears completely wet Jane's sleeve as though he was afraid of being alone, "Wuwu... Jean, don't die!"

Jane who is being mourned by the little fella but her eyes was completely awake: "..."

She just fainted, alright? besides, she not really fainted! don't treat me like I'm about to die!

Jane: "Don't cry Keith, I'm not going to die. Look! Your sister is fine" she released the bandage on her head.

"Hm..." Keith was comforted a lot after seeing the bandage removed from Jane's head, though his eyes still runny and his voice still sobbing, "Hiccup... Jean, I'm hungry"

The corner of Jane's lips twitched slightly, 'Of course you're hungry, you go home then spend your time crying over someone who is clearly fine'

"Let's eat" Jane kept the little fella in her arms and then took him to the kitchen.

After finishing eating, Jane put the little fella to bed for a nap.

Seeing him asleep in bed, Jane chuckled, this little fella was exhausted after his tears drained.

Jane returned to her own room, then sat cross-legged on the bed as usual still trying to break the seal.

There are 20 golden locks that sealed her mana source. Jane still didn't know, what the 20 golden padlocks represented when it opened one by one. But at least it's worth a try.

"Oh, I almost forgot that I have [Devouring Mana Magic Art]"

Jane got this Magic Art from the auction. She only studied this Magic Art once before giving it to her close friend's disciple as a present.

After being transmigrated, she owns the ability to remember everything with only one look, or it called Photographic Memory. That's why she became extremely smart and quick in comprehend the Magic Art.

To think this newbie Magic Art can be useful at a time like this.

Jane starts circulating mana in her body as she casts the mysterious spell of the [Devouring Mana Magic Art]...

Unfortunately, the mana here is very thin, even the most thinnest mana place in Magic World is a hundred better than mana in this place.

Jane estimates that it takes around half a day to accumulate a sufficient amount of mana to begin the experiment to open one of the golden padlocks that sealed her mana source.

...

"...Jean"

Hearing the call of Keith, Jane inevitably had to stop cultivating and open her eyes as she walked over that little fella's room.

Jane saw the little fella raising his hands towards Jane, "Jean, hug"

Jane helplessly shook her head and pull up the little fella into her arms, "Come on, we play in the playroom

"Hum" Keith nodded.

....

The night has passed.

Inside the car, there are three figures discussing.

One of the men was smoking a cigarette in his mouth and then exhaled the smoke which overflowed almost all inside the car, "Third, are we going to take action tonight?"

The only woman among the three of them smeared a red rose lipstick on her appealing sexy lips, "Well, haven't we finished investigating everything?"

The smoker: "Well, that's true... according to our investigation after a few days this house has only been occupied for a week and inhabited by three people; The father called Lee Merrill, an 8-year-old daughter called Jane Merrill, and a 5-year-old boy called Keith Merrill. While the father is out of town for three days, the girl faints during the day and has regained consciousness, as for a boy... forget it! just a boy after all"

The woman smirked: "In that case, we can take action today. After all, what can a girl and boy do? We have already spent a few days back investigating the target house"

The smoker showed some doubts; "But there is an aunt who often runs into our target house, what should we do if she shows up?"

The woman sneered, "What are you? scared?"

The smoker immediately laughed as he licked his lips lustfully, "Of course not, instead, can I have her for a moment?"

The woman shot a disgust expression toward him, "You didn't even spare a married woman?" then she took a glance at the man who had been silent, "What do you think, Third?"

The man called 'Third' who was focusing on sharpening his sharp little knife using a lap.

After a moment he stopped sharpening and unintentionally showed off a glisten of the tip of his small knife as if it was ready to slice through the body of its prey anytime.

The Third's eyes were indifferent but creepy as if he considered human life as nothing, "Finished her!"

Seeing the behavior of their operation leader like that, the smoker guy and the woman gulped as sweat poured on their backs.

...

Of course, Jane didn't know about the three villains conversation as she put Keith to bed.

Then Jane sat cross-legged beside him and start cultivating.

She activated the [Devouring Mana Magic Art] as she viciously absorbed mana around her. In a second, her mana source was flooded with mana.

Jane smiled lightly, "Good"

She kept absorbing it as she already forgot about the time.

Suddenly, Jane heard the click of the door.

She gradually opens her eyes as she sneered, "Finally, they can't wait anymore, what patient robbers!"

The three robbers openly infiltrated Merrill's house, they didn't even bother to wear a mask to cover their faces as though they're only robbing an empty house.

The Third instructed: "Cut it!"

"Roger~" The smoker walked to the landline and cut its cable.

The Third give another instruction: "Turn it on!"

Click, click, click

The lights lit up the whole house as the woman smiled ravishingly, "I think this is our easiest mission this year, what should we do? isn't it better for us to kidnap the two children and sell them as a bonus?"

The smoker laugh heartily, "Haha, right!"

The Third ignored the witticism of his two colleagues: "Take everything valuable! after that, we should greet our little kitties"

"Hahaha," The smoker and the woman laughed as they didn't aware of a little figure on the second floor.

"There's no need to greet me, I already welcome you!" Jane chuckled.
