The Protagonist’s Sister Is Actually The Strongest

I was just another failure of an author, writing stories nobody read, and that never sold. Seeking to improve my writing, I read the most popular novel at that time, Solo Player, to learn what made it so popular. However, as I read this story, I couldn’t help but feel frustrated about the story’s development, which had a terrible ending. Eventually, and quite bitterly, once I ended reading the book, I found myself transmigrated into the very world of this novel. Did I become the Protagonist? A Villain? Or perhaps even an Extra? No, it was much worse than I imagined. Because I ended up becoming the most worthless character that nobody ever cared about in the novel. A character that is often considered the motivation for the protagonist to grow stronger, but also his greatest burden. Someone every reader hated! “I’m the protagonist’s sister…” However, with my knowledge of this novel's events, my worthlessness was about to change. I’ve decided to not only become the strongest but also change the story’s terrible ending! “I won’t let you go inside a Dungeon, it’s too dangerous.” ...As long as I can get this incredibly corny and overprotective brother out of my way! And for some reason, the Constellations won’t stop bothering me. Ding! [The Cosmic Throne {Butterfly That Flies Across The Universe} seems interested in your tenacity!] [She has sponsored 1000000 Plot Points and the [Demon of Calamity Transformation Technique (SS)] Skill!] [The Cosmic Throne {Monkey that Dances in Chaos} finds your chaotic nature amusing!] [He has thrown the [Umbral Chaos Stone Necklace (S Rank)] at you!] [Not enough? He launched the [Immortal Heaven Peach (SSS Rank)] right on your face!] There was something really wrong with the Constellations this time around. Ding! [The Cosmic Throne {Jester Filled With Lies} is happy that you’re bringing despair to your victims!] [He has gifted you the [Jester’s Last Laugh (S Rank Privilege)] and the [Master of Manipulation (SS)] Skill!] [The Cosmic Throne {Maiden that Watches Over Nature} seems happy you’re growing stronger.] [She has gracefully sponsored you with 2000000 Plot Points and Fully Heals All Your Wounds!] [She has also begun to wonder if you could plant some trees for her, gifting you the [Divine World Tree Seedling (SSS Rank)]!] [The Cosmic Throne {Warrior That Seeks Calamity} is satisfied with your battle performance but asks for more battle!] [He has sponsored you with 500000 Plot Points and [Beheading Sword of Destruction (SSS Rank)]!] They simply couldn’t stop gifting me things as if I were some sort of famous streamer for them. “I am grateful, but please just leave me alone already…” Chapters are long, 1500 ~ 2000+ words.

Chapter 12: Charlatan

-----

[New Change: Adam Woo and Han Soo will appear in the Dungeon where Anna was trapped. Adam will hold on to Jack while Han comes to kill his sister.]

[Both Adam and Han are Newly Awakened Demonic Humans.]

[Adam's Potential has increased by +50%]

[Han's Restraint has decreased by -70%]

Oh for fuck's sake. This is my Luck, isn't it? What can I even do against this fucker? I am just going to get slaughtered. I need to buy time. To somehow… run away until my brother comes back.

"Han Soo, D Rank Hunter," I said with a cold tone of voice.

"Oh?" Han suddenly stopped walking towards me, glancing at my eyes with his snake-like pupils. "You know my name, little girl? How odd! I thought you were supposed to be in a coma until just some hours ago?"

"I know more than you think," I said with a smile, faking confidence.

"Tch… It is weird, yeah. But it's not like I care if you know or not… I want to see your blood and guts, and that's what I'm gonna get! The boss said I could go wild! So I will!!!" Han laughed, leaping towards me.

"I know of Uroboros, and that you're a Demonic Human," I said with a smile.

"Eh?!" Han suddenly stopped midway through. His face was filled with disbelief. "How a brat like you know that?!"

"I've made a contract with Uroboros while I was in a coma," I said with a malicious smile.

"You… what?! No, there's no way Uroboros would pick a stupid brat like you! You're lying, right?! I don't know how you knew about Uroboros, but I don't care. I'll just kill you right now-"

SPLASH!

Suddenly, I secreted venom from my hands, the corrosive acid started spreading around the room, emanating a terrible smell.

"Venom?!"

"The special ability all Demonic Humans that worship Uroboros have, right? I can create it too! See? I am not lying."

"W-Wait… This is…"

Han was too stupid. He fell for it too easily. He was also incredibly brainless and written by the Author as a secondary punching bag nobody cared for, which everyone forgets later on anyway, another mob of the many there is needed to make these power fantasy stories, where new enemies appear every chapter to offer some sort of fight to entertain a battle-loving audience. Looking at his face, it was clear he was having a hard time thinking about anything at all. He had the mentality of a psycho, but when it came to the demon he worshipped, he became oddly serious.

"I was chosen by Uroboros as his apostle because I am Jack's sister. Can't you tell? It is so I can backstab him and make him suffer even more!" I laughed. "I am honestly tired of him, he's the reason our family died… I don't care. I'll help you guys kill him!"

"That's…" Han was still thinking, which gave me plenty of time.

Ding!

[The Constellations are shocked! They never thought your talent for bullshitting was this high!]

[The Cosmic Throne {Monkey that Dances in Chaos} is delighted by your chaotic and unpredictable nature!]

[He throws at you 100 PP, and gifts you the [Charlatan (D): Lv1] Innate Skill!]

-----

[Charlatan (D): Lv1]

[Skill EXP: 0/100]

You're a charlatan, your words can sound more convincing to people, and the more bullshit you come out with, the more the chances for them to be believed increase. However, if you're ever found out, the anger of your foes will be increased even more. The convincing ability of your words increases with your Charm Stat. Additionally, you can easily tell when someone else is lying to you.

Level Bonus (1): Your lies become +10% more convincing.

-----

100 PP and a new Skill, nice. Couldn't have expected less from the motherfucker that probably had the idea of changing the plot to something utterly chaotic. All of this was nice but… I still have -10k Luck. Even if it works for a bit, it will always go down to a fight, I can predict it. Nonetheless, this time won't be wasted.

Ding!

[You exchanged 200 PP!]

[You purchased [Random Weapon Treasure Chest (F Rank Privilege)] x2! You have reached the purchase limit!]

[You purchased [Random Armor Treasure Chest (F Rank Privilege)] x2! You have reached the purchase limit!]

Both treasure chests landed inside my Inventory. I was planning to purchase them later because they were F Rank, but I don't have any fucking choice now, anything would help!

[The effects of [Jester's Reverse Fortune (S Rank Privilege)] have been activated!]

[Your LUK Stat has been reversed from -10700 to 10700 for this event only!]

[Your LUK Stat is too high! The quality limit of the items that can be acquired has been increased based on the LUK Stat!]

[You have opened the two [Random Weapon Treasure Chest (F Rank Privilege)]!]

[Huh?! Incredible! You have acquired [Thanatos's Broken Scythe (B Rank)] Scythe Weapon!]

[Oh? Amazing! You have acquired the [Blazing Dragon Tooth (B Rank)] Dagger Weapon!]

[You have opened the two [Random Armor Treasure Chest (F Rank Privilege)]!]

[No way! You have acquired the [Bastion's Shield (C Rank)] Shield!]

[This…! Impossible! You have acquired the [Sylph's Tear (B Rank)] Ring!]

What in the world?! I was expecting some trash, but these items are insane.

"Huh, no… This doesn't make sense! I've been trying to ask Uroboros, but he says he doesn't know about you…" Han said, his eyes squinting. "You're a fucking liar, bitch!"

Han found out, naturally. As much of an idiot as he was, finding out that I was lying was as easy as asking the demon himself.

FLASH!

His aura began growing larger, and larger, and larger… it began to encompass the entire surroundings, filling everything with red.

"I fucking hate liars… More than anything…" He muttered. "You're a smart little bitch, but in the end, you're going to be food for the snakes!!!"

His Aura boosted his entire body's power, as he leaped towards me with even more fury and rage than before, in fact, he was completely pissed and wasn't laughing at all!

BOOOMMM!!

His attack reached the area where I was, blowing away everything, the ground shattered, and the cave trembled. Yet I wasn't there, only a gust of emerald winds was left behind, Han quickly noticed I had moved at a speed he was unable to see, and with a level of stealth he couldn't detect either. I was over twenty meters away from him, yet his snake-like eyes quickly detected me.

"What?! How did you move at such a speed?!" He roared.

"Do you think I'm dumb enough to tell you, fuckhead?" I asked with a smirk.

Ding!

[The power of the Wind Spirit, Sylph, has increased your DEX and AGI by +100%!]

Of course, it was all thanks to my new item, god bless the author for making this guy dumb enough to give me time to get it!

"Oi, oi, you've got to be fucking kidding me, kid. How come you're this fast- Cough, cough! Huh? What the…?" Han suddenly noticed he coughed blood.

The entire cave was filled with the venom I was secreting, which was a slow toxin that affected the lungs of anybody who breathed the gases the venom exuded naturally… I protected myself by wrapping some clothes around my face.

Ding!

[You have created a D Rank Venom [Lung Melter]!]

[Oh? Such Luck! Your D Rank Venom has evolved to a C Rank Venom!]

It was only C Rank, but the Venom Secretion Skill has the power of ignoring 50% of a target's immunities and resistances. This means even Uroboro's servants are affected by this.

"How come… venom affects me?!" Han muttered.

"Well, you've fallen right into my little game," I said, taking a scythe and a dagger out of my inventory.

Ding!

[The Power of [Thanatos's Broken Scythe (B Rank)] generates a powerful Death Aura around you, intimidating your foe!]

[The blazing aura of [Blazing Dragon Tooth (B Rank)] seems to be eager to roast and eat whatever you slice…]

"What sort of weapons are those?! W-Where did a shitty brat like you get them?!"

I cannot run away from him forever, nor I can rely on my brother to save me either.

I have to kill him myself, no matter what.
