Twin Reincarnation: Epics Of The Worldline

[Lucy's POV: ]

"One sinner is dead and these boxes can be opened later. So, what do you suggest we do, 'brother'?

Discuss with Eva or start preparation?" El asked while caressing my cheeks with her warm, gentle hand.

She was sleeping in my lap while looking at the ceiling of the dark room as usual, but the madness she had from a while ago was nowhere to be seen.

This was almost nighttime and there will be guards here to check their master and we will have to go out before that happens.

She had done her best in this little 'quest' and so had I.

Those had been some long hours, and they felt like an eternity had passed.

'But, thankfully, everything was over and by the looks of it, our wonderful lady Eva will be here any time.'

I sighed internally and looked at my sweet witch on my lap.

"Just take some rest, my dear 'sister'. We will follow the plan we had and if nothing goes wrong, we will leave this place by the day after tomorrow.

These generous gods were pleased, so we have quite the money to buy some good equipment.

After taking care of Miss Eva, let's eat something good and call Raz." I suggested and I caressed her head and sighed once again.

'This was really difficult for both of us, but things were finally over.'

He had gotten the end he deserved, and we had got more than we calculated.

More crazy ones liked seeing torture, and the angels were more delighted than demons.

'Damn angels and gods...'

But, well, they were our customers, and if what we did made them spend more on us, we were all good.

============

[Oz: 49,456.]

============

That was just my small number. She had more than me.

After cutting the cost of some important things and things we needed, we had a good amount to have another member with us.

So, the wonderful lady will come with us and from what I knew, she will become proficient with the sword in the time we stay in the outer area.

This was all, and there were the reward boxes we had too.

We got our first title, which would be a good thing, and yada, yada.

There were endless things to talk about but, the thing we had gotten from that certain generous god's commission was more impressive than we had thought.

[ "It's him right?" ]

I asked her to confirm as I played with the 'ring' in my hand.

This was an extraordinary item.

It possessed considerable size, resembling more of a bracelet than a mere ring when held in my young hands.

Embedded within it was a gemstone and this was more than what we had expected.

Though others who were seeing us couldn't see it, we can also see the drawing inside the gem.

This was God's crest.

A symbol representing the revered guardian deity of the eastern skies. The intricate design captured the essence of their power and protection, with graceful curves resembling the wings of soaring birds and intricate patterns embodying the vastness of their celestial domain.

It was an invaluable thing and something that can be used in many ways.

Just the base selling value of such an item was 25000 Oz and depending on which god it belongs to, the price would increase.

'The one we were holding right now was also special among them.'

Gods had systematic ranks preset in an aristocratic manner.

And the one we were holding was a [Count] ranked god's ring.

He was a famous one, and I didn't think we would have someone like him from this early.

[ "Yes. That's him. The one who killed that one." ]

El confirmed it, and I shook my head in disbelief.

The gods and angels, even demons, couldn't interfere with this link skill of ours normally and they wouldn't want to suffer the backlash just for some little conversation.

And even with that, I doubted they can interfere with the skill that even someone like Raz wasn't able to penetrate.

They will just increase the proficiency of my skill. And, it would be a good thing for us overall.

There wasn't much to see in our status window, like the title of other worlder, bug abuser, natural master, or such things as protagonists.

Those bastards would already have high-ranking gods and angels flocking around them from the beginning and they would just be like that for a long time.

The MC of this game had a skill that blocked other lower-level skills from seeing through him, and that shit was broken.

Like... it was literally a zero skill increased beyond the level of celestial skill. What can anyone do?

And that stuff was an all-in-one skill that can practically do anything!

'But this wasn't time for their introductions...'

There was something in our hands that showed the authority of a particular god and that thing granted us the opportunity to use the Authority of that god.

It was also something just close to impossible to use without knowing who this thing belongs to or what Authority skills the one who gave this had.

Well, I was lucky to have her who knew most of the abilities and true names of the gods and this was, fortunately, one of them.

We also had Raz for information but, he was bound by rules and the price he had to ask for such high-level info would be in seven digits.

That was an amount we won't have for a long time, so it was good to have her.

I was lucky, and... the footsteps of our good caretaker were running toward this place.

-Thump. Thump...

They were weak and barefooted, so we knew who this was.

We even knew what kind of expression she would make, and we were right on the mark.

-Thumb!

The door opened in a hurry and a frail figure walked in.

Her face was devastated, and her eyes were wide open.

Her heartbeats were so loud I could hear them reverberating in the room.

Her light brown eyes were wide with fear, looking around in search of someone.

And finally, her eyes fall on our languid forms.

"El! Lu!" she shouted and ran toward us.

She was pretty, but at the same time, pitiful.

We knew she would feel responsible for something she didn't even know about, but this situation was bad for her.

She was the one that took care of us, so, for us, she was something of a mom.

She was nice and sweet, and her cooking skills were exceptional.

Every time she snuck some of this bastard's food to us, we knew this was talent.

If nothing, she can become a head chef in a good, noble house.

But her worried self and all that fear-filled expression that turned into relief were quite something.

We didn't belong to her, but she treated every child in this place as her own.

Though parting ways with them would be dreadful for her, we knew we could convince her to follow us.

She hugged us tightly with her weak body and we felt her warm embrace for the first time. She had also been through a lot.

"Miss..." I tried to say something, but she tightened her weak grip around us.

This was genuine, and we could feel it.

We didn't know why, but she treated us especially fine.

Maybe she pitied us the most because we were most special in this place. After all, she knew the end we would receive. And it would be worse than what that pig wanted from her.

I didn't know her reason but, at least I knew this person was going to become the first member of our family.

A family that would be special and will work with us with their whole heart.

We had goals in this world, and they were special in themselves.

And she will have a valuable role in all of our plans...
