Unrivaled Mowing from the Herrscher Onward

An Yu stopped and waited for Elysia to finish checking her phone.

Elysia hummed and grumbled twice more. She was unhappy but didn't know how to complain, her slender fingers swiping across the screen until she finally added herself back to the special-care list.

"Let's not take a taxi. How about we ride the motorcycle~?"

She softened her voice and dragged out the last syllable coquettishly.

"No. With your current mental state, I'm afraid you'll take me down with you halfway there."

That concern was absolutely not baseless. Elysia's mental state had genuinely been abnormal these past few days.

"You should believe in your omnipotent Sister Elysia!"

"And these past few days have definitely been a feng shui problem with the house."

She spoke righteously, but unfortunately, she wasn't persuasive at all.

"Then can you conjure me a girlfriend?"

An Yu's tone was calm.

Elysia whined again and again. She couldn't, and there wasn't anyone in her social circle suitable to be An Yu's girlfriend either.

Griseo was an adult but too young. Pardo was adorable but had no thoughts in that direction yet. Eden was a huge celebrity now, making her even less suitable. Sakura and Aponia... in any case, there was no one.

"Come on. If we're not taking a taxi, then we'll take the bus to the hospital."

An Yu didn't give Elysia the chance to fool around. He grabbed his sister's wrist with one hand and half-pulled, half-dragged her effortlessly to the bus stop.

"You weren't this forceful before."

Elysia complained quietly and made a token struggle, but unfortunately, she wasn't some divine maiden from a dream.

An Yu, that rotten little brother who could race Bronya, had absurdly strong hands.

"Because I know full well that next, you'll throw a tantrum and roll around until we're running out of time, then look at me pitifully and say, 'Xiao Yu, let's take the motorcycle, okay?'"

Probably. Though she likely wouldn't phrase it as throwing a tantrum and rolling around. After all, Elysia had plenty of ways to kill time.

Oh no, it seemed someone's Stand was deleting time.

Elysia kept humming and grumbling. She was unhappy, yet couldn't quite say why. She really hated how An Yu was guarding against her like this.

"Cheapskates aren't likable."

An Yu pretended not to hear her. Worth mentioning was that perhaps due to advances in technology, bus intervals were generally maintained at one every ten minutes outside rush hour, and they were free.

Waiting for the bus wasn't boring either, because there was an AI terminal at the stop. You could scroll through short videos or browse nearby products, though hardly anyone used it.

Elysia didn't like taking the bus because her appearance hadn't been altered much during livestreams, making her easy to recognize.

But An Yu seemed not to know about her job. Why wouldn't anyone like watching livestreams?

"Xiao Yu, what if I go to the hospital and the doctor says there's nothing wrong with me?"

After getting on, Elysia sat by the window. Leaning against it, she felt lost about her future. She had never imagined she would become mentally ill.

It had to be a feng shui problem!

"Any normal person who goes to a hospital gets diagnosed with mild anxiety. Why do you think you'll get off completely unscathed?"

An Yu went back to looking through his phone. Unfortunately, the world had been peaceful recently. Other than headlines about celebrities being exposed in scandals, there wasn't a single useful piece of information.

"What if I'm only diagnosed with mild anxiety?"

An Yu raised his head and looked at his sister, melancholy as a lilac. He said bluntly, "Someone with mild anxiety wouldn't think about killing her little brother, nor would she form a new family with twelve other people while hiding it from her own brother."

Elysia puffed out her cheeks. It felt like An Yu would nag her about this for the rest of her life.

"My nightmare was just too real! Besides, I didn't actually do it."

She paused, then added quietly, "And anyway, who told you to keep playing the villain in my dream?"

You wanted to actually do it?

An Yu fell silent for a moment before saying sincerely, "I recommend deleting all those bad influences from your contacts."

"Even now, I think it's because of your chats with them, plus the fact that someone deceived you, that you've been acting all mystical and weird every day."

Although what Elysia had done was hardly human, their bond from childhood until now still hadn't made him give up on his foolish older sister.

"At least they were good people in the dream! Unlike you, who only knew how to make me angry! All you did in the dream was bully me!"

And every time, you were a Herrscher—a pure, extreme evil who wouldn't listen to reason, ignored human warmth and suffering, and killed purely for the sake of killing.

Even Mobius was like a babbling infant in front of An Yu. He even did things just to amuse himself!

An Yu silently watched Elysia, and Elysia stared right back with plenty of confidence.

They stared for so long that Elysia even had time to wonder why brown eyes could reflect her image so clearly.

Then she heard An Yu slowly speak, his voice very soft.

"Why am I always the bad guy in your dreams, while those bad influences are always good people..."

An Yu reached out and stroked his sister's cheek. His fingertips pressed slightly harder, leaving red marks on her soft, chubby face.

"Elysia, in your current muddled state of mind, you'd better not discuss this with me. I'm afraid I really won't be able to stop myself from beating you up in public."

An Yu could accept Elysia having her own good friends, close girlfriends, even a boyfriend... Well, that was a little too sudden. He might not be able to accept that.

But An Yu couldn't accept that in his sister's heart, there were twelve friends better than him—and that the gap between those twelve and him was as enormous as the gap between excellent and barely passing.

Elysia's expression stiffened. She was completely jolted awake, then instantly deflated and slumped into her seat after realizing it. It was over—she had stupidly mixed up dreams and reality.

But the dream had been so real. Although Xiao Yu in reality was great too, in the dream... Waaah!

Her mind had become a complete mess.

She couldn't tell anymore. Elysia really couldn't tell!

Is That Your Sister? Say Another Word and She's Your Sister!

There weren't many people at the hospital. With technology so advanced and average life expectancy having risen to eighty, minor ailments no longer required a visit to the doctor.

"Third floor."

An Yu skillfully took a number and led Elysia toward the stairs in the distance.

"Why aren't we taking the elevator?"

"Why would we take the elevator to the third floor?"

Why wouldn't they take the elevator to the third floor?

Elysia followed behind him, muttering quietly.

There were even fewer people on the third floor. The air carried a faint fragrance, mixed with the hospital's distinctive smell.

Through the gap in the door, Doctor Faer looked to be around fifty. His complexion was rosy and he seemed full of energy. It was hard to say how skilled he was professionally, but he definitely looked like someone who knew how to take care of himself.

"Su?"

Elysia's eyes suddenly lit up, and she happily called out to a figure nearby.

The tall man in the distance turned around at the sound and slightly opened his ever-narrowed eyes.

"Elysia?" Su was stunned for a long while, his gaze moving back and forth between Elysia and An Yu. "Did you bring your little brother here to see a doctor?"

Elysia's little face tightened. Obviously not.

"She's the one seeing the doctor."

An Yu's expression softened. After all, it was surprising that his sister's friends included someone with such a proper profession as a doctor.

If only there weren't those twelve bad influences.

Su narrowed his eyes again, his expression unreadable.

Elysia was here to see a doctor?

What illness could she possibly have? ADHD?

Reasonable. Teachers were responsible for psychological counseling, and ADHD required psychological counseling.

"She should indeed get checked. Late-stage ADHD can easily leave patients in a constant state of anxiety, and may even develop into depression."

Su evaluated her with a straight face.

Elysia: ...

After thinking for a moment, Su spoke again.

"Which doctor did you book? My teacher is here today too. Perhaps he can offer some help."

An Yu's impression of Su rose noticeably. It would be great if his sister made more proper friends like this.

"I'm afraid that won't work this time. We've already made an appointment with Doctor Faer."

He sounded a little regretful, but since they had booked it already, they had to honor the appointment first. Still, getting to know another expert was always good, though An Yu hadn't yet figured out exactly how this connection might be useful.

Su was silent for a moment, his tone subtle. "...That's my teacher."

An Yu was speechless. The world really was small.

"I still think I don't have any psychological problems."

Elysia muttered quietly. A feng shui problem—it was definitely a feng shui problem!

"Mentally ill people never think they're mentally ill. But a normal person definitely wouldn't think about killing her little brother, then forming a new family with twelve people."

Ugh! Elysia puffed out her cheeks. There was no need to keep bringing that up!

And little brother, were you really planning to nag her about it for the rest of your life?

"I only did one little thing wrong. It's not like I became a bad person... No, that's not right. I didn't do anything wrong either."

An Yu quietly looked at her. Elysia hummed and grumbled, then lowered her head. "Fine, I did one tiny thing wrong."

"Although the situation sounds a little unusual..."

Su opened his eyes again, his gaze shifting between the two of them. At last, he spoke up for her with a complicated expression. "Elysia might really not have any serious psychological problems."

After all, even he had trouble keeping a straight face when looking at An Yu's face. As for the family of twelve... Su seemed to know what An Yu meant.

"Then I sincerely hope you get a sister like this too."

After a moment of silence, An Yu offered his heartfelt blessing.

Su maintained his smile and said nothing more. Better not.

"Hey! Hey! Hey! If you keep disliking me this much, I'll cry..."

Elysia stamped her feet anxiously beside them, but An Yu clearly had no interest in playing around with her. As for Su...

Su, why weren't you replying? What did it mean to close your eyes again and pretend not to hear?

Before long, Elysia went in for her psychological evaluation, while Su went off to handle his own work. The hardships of doctors were something everyone understood.

An Yu checked the company group chat. Bronya seemed to have already contacted Mei and persuaded her to continue allowing her image to serve as a hidden thread in the new game's story.

The story had taken on an initial framework, and this time Bronya had even found several partners, preparing to make a big move.

"There's going to be a lot to do next."

An Yu sat upright in his chair, wondering whether he'd still have a chance to use his personal leave once things got busy.

"Waaah, Xiao Yu!"

Just as he was beginning to get restless, Elysia came running out in tears, her watery eyes shimmering with them.

"What happened?"

An Yu hurriedly stood up. No, sister, why were you crying after just seeing a doctor?

Was it that serious?

"The doctor said I have ADHD without attention deficit, plus mild anxiety and depression. He also said I have a bit of a people-pleasing personality."

Elysia had always thought she was simply lively and adorable, but the doctor had calmly told her that it was ADHD, though her symptoms weren't severe.

And he had prescribed her medicine.

"That's all?"

An Yu stared at her in disbelief. "You don't have delusions or mild intellectual impairment?"

Without those two problems, how could you have acted so absurdly before?
