Sister Is Uneasy desu

She tried guiding her Sword Intent toward the gap in the Broken Sword.

White light slowly flowed into the gap, and the Broken Sword's blade trembled slightly.

The gap began to mend.

Bit by bit, strand by strand.

But before long, more than half of her Sword Intent had been consumed, and the repair speed grew slower and slower.

In the end, when her Sword Intent was completely exhausted, only one-third of the gap in the Broken Sword had been repaired.

Molly looked at the Broken Sword in her hand and shook her head regretfully.

"Looks like I'll need even stronger Sword Intent to completely repair the Broken Sword."

She guessed that she would need to reach at least Basic Swordsmanship Sixth Tier or Greater Sword Intent Mastery.

"Still, this is already pretty good."

Molly swung the Broken Sword once and found that its weight was much more balanced than before, making it easier to wield.

Then she desperately suppressed the corners of her mouth from curling upward and said solemnly:

"No, I can't get complacent!"

"Fifth-Tier Basic Swordsmanship and Minor Sword Intent Mastery may seem strong, but before a true Demon God, they probably aren't enough."

"I don't have Deep Blue Stat Allocation, so I can only work even harder."

"My goal is to slay the Demon God and protect this world!"

"This road is still very, very long."

Molly tightened her grip on the Broken Sword, her gaze becoming incomparably firm.

She did not rest again. Instead, she raised the Broken Sword once more and began a new round of training.

However, this time, she discovered that her proficiency was increasing much more slowly.

Previously, every few swings would raise her proficiency by 1 point. Now, she had to swing more than ten times before it increased by a single point.

[Fifth-Tier Basic Swordsmanship +1... +1]

Molly was not surprised.

The higher the level, the harder it was to break through. Naturally, proficiency increased more slowly as well.

But she was not discouraged in the slightest.

She knew that if she wanted to grow stronger, she had to put in more effort than others.

Sword light flickered, and Sword Intent circulated.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The crisp sound of blades cutting through the air rang out in the bedroom once again.

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, it was afternoon.

The setting sun slanted westward, and the sunlight was listless.

Outside the gates of A City No. 3 Middle School.

Ding-ding.

The dismissal bell rang, and students poured out of the school gates like a tide.

Moyan carried her schoolbag and strolled lazily through the crowd.

She wore a clean blue-and-white school uniform, her long black hair tied into a ponytail that swayed gently with her steps.

Her delicate face, fair skin, clear peach-blossom eyes, and youthful aura made her the most eye-catching presence in the crowd.

The boys around her all blushed as they secretly stole glances at her.

Some boys gathered their courage and wanted to approach her, but the moment they saw Moyan's icy expression, they all shrank back.

Moyan turned a blind eye to it all and walked expressionlessly, radiating an aura that kept strangers away.

She had long grown used to such gazes.

Ever since becoming a Monster Demon Contractor, her charm had increased by a great deal.

It was not just boys. Even some girls looked at her with a hint of infatuation.

It left her rather helpless.

She only wanted to quietly go home after school. She did not want to be disturbed.

Moyan hurried to the school lockers, took out her key, and opened her locker door.

"Rustle—"

A pile of colorful envelopes slid out of the locker and fell to the ground.

Moyan's mouth twitched, her face full of speechlessness.

Love letters again.

Who knew how they had stuffed them in there? Luckily, they had not put anything strange inside...

Ever since her charm had increased, Moyan received a huge pile of love letters every day, far more than she had received before.

Some were written by boys, and some by girls.

She bent down, picked up the love letters, and prepared to throw them into the trash.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. Little Moyan, you got so many love letters again."

A crisp voice rang beside her ear.

A little girl wearing a black lolita dress with a pair of tiny wings on her back suddenly appeared beside her.

It was her familiar, Lilith.

Lilith circled Moyan with a mischievous smile.

"Well? After becoming a Monster Demon Contractor, your charm really did increase by a lot."

"Forget these little boys. Even if you just crooked your finger, those uncles would be swarming around you."

Moyan jumped in fright and quickly looked around.

Fortunately, most of the students nearby had already left, and no one noticed Lilith.

She quickly reached out, pressed down on Lilith's head, and lowered her voice.

"Why did you come out? Hurry back! It'll be troublesome if someone sees you!"

"Oh, what are you afraid of?"

Lilith slapped her hand away and said with a grin:

"Ordinary people can't see me."

"Only you and Contractors like you can see me."

Only then did Moyan breathe a sigh of relief and let go.

Lilith landed on her shoulder and glanced at the love letters in her hand.

"Aren't you planning to read these love letters?"

"No."

Moyan shook her head without hesitation.

"I don't have any intention of dating right now. Besides, these love letters are all too mushy. I don't like them."

"Oh? Really?"

Lilith raised an eyebrow and smiled slyly.

"I think it's not that you don't want to date. You just don't want to date them, right?"

"Are you still thinking about your sister?"

Moyan instantly panicked.

She glared at Lilith.

"Shut up! Don't talk nonsense!"

"I'm not talking nonsense."

Lilith curled her lips and continued:

"Think about it. Your sister is a girl too. She has emotions and desires."

"Maybe one day, she'll fall for some handsome boy."

"By then, she'll leave you behind and won't be able to stay by your side every day like she does now."

Moyan's face instantly turned pale.

An image involuntarily surfaced in her mind.

In the image, her older sister Molly held the hand of a handsome boy, smiling happily.

Moyan wanted to step forward, but Molly pushed her away.

Molly said she wanted to be with that boy and did not want Moyan anymore.

A wave of panic instantly swept through her heart.

She could not lose her sister!

Absolutely not!

Her sister was her only family!
