3 Sibling Talk

(Read important notice down below!)

...

"How's life brother? Is everything fine? Do you want me to babysit you too?"

She said

As offended as it sounds might be, Licht could only smile wryly. She knew what his sister, Tanya, attitude is, and he was used to it and his other siblings too.

"I'm fine. How are you? Doing good? Is there anything that needs to be aware of?"

Everytime Licht visited the headquarters, he would always try to help her sister with duties as much as he can before he vanished once more.

"Same as usual; doing all the work that our family has."

"...is that so."

"Don't worry, I'll notify you if there's one."

Tanya shifted her sight towards the paperwork on her desk and continued.

"So, what's the catch this time? No, don't answer that. Do you have any plans for what next park you're going to visit? If so, try to cooperate with our subordinates if things go a little crazy, you know what to do."

"Yes, yes, I got it."

"I'm serious..."

Tanya's gazes shift towards him again as though sending him a warning.

"You know me full well, Tanya. I'd never cause troubles wherever I go."

"Just making sure. Having troublesome siblings is so tedious you know? I don't care whatever business y'all have just don't get in my subordinate way."

Licht smiled wryly.

He can't blame his sister because of this cause whenever their siblings go trouble would surely arise.

Although the problems could be fixed by her interfering or her siblings by fixing his or her own fault the unnecessary report and time of Tanya's subordinate would be wasted for stupid reasons like this that could be used in something productivity.

Tanya continued. "Are you going to stay for a few days?"

"No."

"Need something else? Gold? Clothe? Weapons?"

"No, it's unnecessary."

"How about a companion? Maid? Butler? Soldiers?"

"...I think I'm okay... Thanks for worrying by the way." Licht smiled wryly again.

You tsundere. He thought.

He continued. "Then, I'm leaving."

"Don't you dare come back with troubles."

Licht almost stumbles upon the floor.

You cheeky brat!

Tanya continued. "Alex, lead our guest outside, please."

"As you wish, General Tanya."

...

Walking the way out, the same route he takes going inside, the two paired of woman and man seems on bad odds with each other.

Licht followed Alex as he looks at her back with troubled expressions.

Then he started a conversation.

"How are you doing, Alex? Anything happened when I was away?"

"..."

"Is my sister doing fine? Please, always remind her to take a break every now and then to ease her mind."

"..."

"Alex, remember-

"..."

"Alex-"

"..."

No matter what approach he uses, Alex won't badge on and keep her cold silence towards him.

"...say, Alex... Do you still hate me?"

"!?"

Alex flinched slightly hearing that and momentarily stop her advance before proceeding to walk him out.

"Do you?"

Licht asks once again.

"...no"

"That's not what your actions saying, Alex."

"...I said no"

"But-"

"If I said no! No!!"

The sudden rise of her voice rendered Licht speechless, and he sigh.

The duo continued walking until they reach the door, silence is between them.

Sending him off, Alex didn't give him some farewell words and just close the door forcefully which startled the two guards guarding the door.

Licht left the headquarters somehow crestfallen inside.

"Well, there's no need to trouble myself. I should keep moving now."

Light bought some necessities like cheap clothes, cheap weapons, and cheap communication devices for himself at the local market of the city.

He also ate at the restaurant that suits his fancy and drunk some wines after a long time.

Over all, he enjoyed a life like some normal citizen of the city.

Before he left the city, he takes sometimes to have a conversation with the city guard name K, having close times with their subjects sometimes crucial to have peace among themselves.

After that, he left and headed somewhere that he thought could pick his interest and vanish at the city.

...

Inside Tanya's office.

"Did you have a good talk with him?"

Tanya asks Alex while doing some paperwork. But Alex didn't reply and just stood beside her somehow lost.

"...don't worry. That brother of mine would surely regret his decision. Just wait patiently, Alex. I'm supporting you."

As though the key-word 'brother' entered her ears to gained her attention, Alex snapped out on her own thought and nodded.

"Hmm..."

Alex put her right hand on her chest and grasp the pendant on her neck and muttered. "You baka[1]..."
