Lady Devil - Chapter 25

#25

“Wait a minute. Winfrid, isn’t that my knife?”

It was hard to believe. Who are you to question? She almost demanded in front of her sister who was claiming ownership, but the more she returned to her bedroom and thought about it, the more it all seemed to fit together. Brother’s woman.

Between siblings…. Such an unethical relationship!

Could it be, could it be, that was the reason sister refused marriage so adamantly….

It gave her goosebumps. She thought. She wasn’t sure about sister. But brother’s feelings for sister were undoubtedly those between a man and woman.

So perhaps that day, when brother heard the news of a marriage proposal from the old man, he may have sought out sister’s dagger again for reasons Winfrid himself still couldn’t fully comprehend. He must have realized immediately that it had gone missing after he took it, but of course, he wouldn’t have been able to ask anyone about the dagger’s whereabouts.

How could he say it? That he had taken his sister’s possession without a word. That he had kept it hidden in secret for so long!

He must have been anxious. Not understanding the meaning of the theft, and with no way to catch and punish the culprit, he must have felt like he was going mad with anger he couldn’t reveal. Moreover, now that his sister was leaving, he must have felt like he would be left alone, shattered and broken into pieces without even a token to remember her by!

That night, brother’s fit was not a fit. It was not some aftereffect of battle that weaklings sometimes experience. Brother simply.

Lost his mind.

How could this be…. How could it be so successful…! His whole body trembled with joy so great he felt he could leap. His only regret was that he couldn’t appreciate the fire he had started in that moment.

Ah, brother. Brother! You were indeed no different from me….

…He thought things had taken quite a strange turn since that day. Brother had a fit and sister did something. And Winfrid himself learned too much, and now he even….

Desires an even bigger fire.
