Chapter 75: "Sirin, What did I do wrong?"

"Hngh... Au! Au! Au! My spine!"

Stretching the limits of her body to the point that her spine sprained. Sirin took a deep of cold breath, and within the span of a few minutes, the pain finally subsided.

"I think I sat in front of the computer for too long... Au!"

Rubbing her tired eyes, and only then felt a signal of pain coming from the fingers of her right hand. Sirin, who had been drawing Homu comics on her pen tablet, realized that it was now midnight.

It seemed, she had completely lost track of time again.

"Save a draft in advance, and send the finished comic to the editor. Is editor Joachim online at this time?"

Uploading her homu comic to editor Joachim email. Sirin waited for a while, and she suddenly received a message from her communicator.

Editor Joachim: "{Good job! Get enough rest, and don't sleep late.}"

Short words, just as usual.

But even so, these short words managed to make a smile appear on Sirin's tired face.

In the beginning becoming a comic mangaka was a very accidental incident. She was still thinking about how to get rid of Thea's curse that had been throw on her.

How did she atone for the sins she had committed?

Mama Cecilia believed in her that she would be able to atone for her sins in the future. But for Sirin, she didn't even believe herself.

She was completely confused.

Asking netizens on the internet, how to atone the sin of killing the many people, most netizens suggested that she be handed over to the local police, or go to court to await the death penalty trial.

At the answers given by many sand sculpture netizens, Sirin could only snort her nose in annoyance.

Hum! Nonsense!

I won't die anymore!

Fortunately, of the hundreds of internet netizens who answered her posts, there was one netizen who made a very useful comment.

"{How about doing small things first? For example making other people happy, and make everyone being happy by seeing your masterpiece. If you have a talent for drawing, please contact me again.}"

Yes, that was a comment from her current editor, Mr. Joachim.

He said that he was from the AE animation company, and was looking for talent everywhere. He was also the one who sent lots of drawing study materials to improve her skills.

As a result, Sirin, who is also serious due to being infected with the kindness of editor Joachim, dives deeper into this path.

Sirin could see the quality of her drawing improving rapidly day by day. With the help of some character module technology, Sirin finds that drawing is very easy.

Maybe this is her hidden talent.

Sirin :"{I understand, I will go to bed now. Thanks for the reminder.}"

Turning off the computer screen, and making the room that was originally dark became even darker because there was no light at all. Sirin, who had just laid down on her bed, and intended to sleep, immediately turned on the light in her room.

"Blyat, I'm so hungry..."

Midnight hunger strike.

She didn't expect that what netizens were talking about on the internet would be experienced by herself at this time.

"There should still be instant noodles in the kitchen cupboard. I'll eat before I go to bed."

Rolling around for a while on the bed, and finally getting out of her room reluctantly. Sirin, who was walking slowly towards the kitchen, suddenly heard a very small whispering sound in the pitch black darkness.

"Big sis, when will it be finished? I'm hungry..."

"Be patient Kiana, I'm also trying... Damn it! This cupboard door has also been padlocked with a double layer of chain! Kiana get me my tweezers!"

"Sister, keep your voice down! Mama can wake up and catch us both again!"

Sirin: "....?"

Felt something was wrong. Sirin turned on the flashlight on her communicator, and she could finally clearly see the two hungry ghosts who were trying to break into the kitchen cupboards at this moment.

"What are you two doing?"

Kiana screamed in fear:

"Aaahhh...!? Sister Sirin...? Phew, thank goodness... I thought mama caught us again. You really scared me!"

"Ssshhhh!!! Lower your voice, don't make noise!"

"Oops! Sorry...~"

Sirin: "...."

Glanced at Kiana for a while, before seeing Thea who was busy unlocking padlocks with her professional tools. Sirin pointed her flashlight at the cupboard that had steel chains wrapped around them, and she tilted her head in confusion.

"Although I don't know why the cupboard is locked with a chain, but if you two are hungry, shouldn't the two of you just look for food in the fridge? why do you have to bother?"

Thea clicked her tongue in annoyance: "Tch, just see for yourself."

Feeling confused by what Thea meant. Sirin saw Kiana sigh helplessly.

Kiana explained:

"Maybe because we get caught eating too often in the middle of the night, so mom replaced our old fridge with one that has a smart lock system. Instead of breaking into the fridge full of technology, it's better to try breaking into the cupboard. At least we have some hope of getting to the food that's in there."

Hearing this, Sirin asked Thea confusedly:

"Don't you have the power of the Herrscher of Void? Why don't you create a portal and take the food directly?"

"I can't! I can't!!"

Like a cat whose tail has been stepped on by someone. Thea gritted her teeth in utter annoyance.

Due to the influence of her main body's evolution, her current power had become extremely unstable.

She could indeed open a portal if she forced it. But if something went wrong, food came out, or her hand entered the crack in the space, it might be instantly crushed into mush without a trace.

She has powers, but she can't use them.

This is really very ironic.

Sirin: "???"

Do not understand why Thea suddenly angry. Sirin who is good at seeking profit and avoiding misfortune, chooses to stay away from her.

"If there's nothing to eat, then I'll order takeout that's open twenty four hours. Kiana, what would you like to order?"

Hearing this, Kiana immediately got excited, and rushed to hug Sirin tightly: "Really? Can you order takeout? Do you have money?"

Sirin rubs Kiana's hair which currently looks so ridiculous.

"Of course there is. Don't underestimate your big sister. I mean, I already have a job."

"Really, what job?"

Sirin suddenly became silent: "Ahh... About that... let's talk about it another time. By the way, what would you like to order?"

Kiana's eyes suddenly lit up with light even though the surroundings were currently very dark.

"Pizza! I want macaroni cheese pizza! Mama always forbids us from eating pizza, I haven't eaten pizza in a long time!"

"Okay, okay, calm down... wait a minute." Sirin opened her communicator, and she opened the food ordering app very quickly.

"Yeah! It's been a long time since I've eaten pizza! Last time dad brought it from town as my present for helping him get rid of the Honkai beasts. I feel so happ-hmph!?!?"

Thea: "Don't be loud!"

Suddenly silenced by Thea from behind. Kiana, who had just realized that she was about to scream, immediately lowered her head guiltily.

"Sorry..."

"Hum!"

Staring at her fellow food thieves with a disgruntled look, because she was unprofessional. Thea rolled her eyes, and she started to continue her work.

"Takeout is coming in 15 minutes. I ordered two pizzas for the three of us. I think that's enough to fill our hungry tummies."

"Hmp! Hmp!"

Learning from her mistake, this time Kiana only nodded her head to prevent the noise from escaping her throat.

She looks so cute~

Sitting in the living room together with Kiana to wait for their takeout orders to come. Sirin, who was talking in a low voice with Kiana, to prevent her from suddenly falling asleep, suddenly heard the sound of a telephone ringing enter her ear.

Sirin opened her communicator: "Strange, where is this ringing sound coming from? I don't think it's mine..."

Kiana: "!!!"

Thea: "!!?"

Not paying attention to the strange expressions on Kiana and Thea's faces. Sirin who suddenly heard the ringing sound immediately disappeared, not really bothering about it anymore.

Maybe she was too sleepy to hear a strange sound.

"Kiana, there's something I want to ask when we were in class yesterday... Wait, where are you?"

Realizing that Kiana who was sitting next to her had suddenly disappeared like a ghost. Sirin looked around her in confusion.

"Thea?"

Sirin also finds that Thea, who is always busy taking care of the locks in the kitchen, has also disappeared without a word.

"This is weird..."

"CLICK!"

"Ugh, too bright!"

Closing her eyes tightly because the living room lights suddenly turned on just like that. Sirin opened her sore eyes slowly, and she suddenly saw a very tall figure, appearing before her at this moment.

Raising her head, Sirin could see the angry expression on Cecilia's face at this moment.

"Sirin....~ why are you here?"

"Ah, I... No... I mean..."

For some reason, Sirin suddenly panicked!

Cecilia gritted her teeth: "Before, mom received a phone call that a delivery person wanted to deliver a pizza order to our house. Tell me honestly, did you order it?"

Sirin: "...."

"Eating pizza is not good for health Sirin! Besides, haven't you all had dinner? Why are you still hungry in the middle of the night! That's an unhealthy habit!"

"Mommy has said this many times!"

"SIRIN! Listen to mommy when I talks!"

....

Seeing Sirin who was scolded in the living room. Both Kiana and Thea who had been hiding from the start because the instincts that the two of them had always honed, began to infiltrate their room very slowly.

Reached their bedroom door, and could still hear Cecilia's angry screams scolding Sirin. Thea and Kiana both clicked their tongues pitifully.

Thea: "This newbie are really too arrogant. If there is an anomaly in the middle of the night, doesn't that mean it's time to retreat?"

Kiana: "Sister Sirin is such a noob."

They both shook their heads disappointedly, and returned to their bed rooms with hungry stomachs.

Their mission tonight, failed.

This is the longest chapter I've ever made. I can feel there are wrong words hidden here.
