Twin Reincarnation: Epics Of The Worldline



[Lucy's POV: ]

After spending the night in the troll village and giving them and Gurak some necessary instructions, we spent a little more money to create a unique communication waypoint over there, through which, they can communicate with us when it was actually necessary.

And in the little time we had, we taught them and Gurak a few things, especially how to use the Oz he would earn going forward.

He even signed a joint conditional contract with Raz through which, Raz can go to him whenever he wanted and he can exchange the goods they collect with Raz for different kinds of resources.

Raz would handle the accounts and the unique resources we need and profits earned from the trade would go to us.

It was a kinda one-sided thing but, we showed those primitive creatures some unique ways to prepare their food with unique herbs and spices and Mana so they were excited and were looking forward to things even after everything that happened.

'Which was not something El wanted to do anything about.'

She wanted to kill them from the start but they were alive still. So, she wanted nothing to do with those creatures aside from the slave troll hero of mine.

So, she at least was not negative towards him, but, she surely showed her dislike towards the rest of his family.

She didn't like them, and they all knew that much.

They also knew she would just kill them if she wanted but because of my wish, she was doing nothing to them.

They were thankful to me, and from how I won that sacred duel fairly and kept my word of keeping them all alive, they were also kinda looking up to me.

But that was that. The fact that we killed all of their people was never going to change and they would have to live with it for the rest of their lives.

'Which was how it should be…'

We left their village and the forest with a very costly teleportation scroll that we had to buy with Eva's money.

We spent an awful lot in just a day so we will have to sit quietly for a while until we receive some payouts from our passive sources.

'Thankfully, the currency used in this empire is way cheaper than the system's Oz. Almost three hundred times cheaper. So, we didn't have to worry about our expenses in this place.'

And, we still had a good lot of hard cash that we took from that bastard pig's safe in the past.

We had the money, and still a good amount of supplies so we directly used the common feature of many magical fantasies, the wrap gate, which cost a big coin but we were in the great capital city of the greatest empire that housed the greatest academy on this planet.

It was a central place and this capital was mostly known for the academy and seeing how the academy itself covered a third of this city, one can just assume the scale of that institution.

But, after we came to the city and were going towards a good inn for our temporary stay for today, we encountered a very cliche situation where the heroin was being surrounded by a bunch of thugs and even though she could do a lot more than just beat them up like El wanted, she chose not to and just stayed like that.

'Well, they could have died miserable deaths if they had done anything more than this since she still doesn't seem to know how to control her strengths, so, they were kinda lucky we were passing by this place.'

Haaa…

"Oh~? Hello pretty lady. I think I misheard something. Did you just say-"

"Yes, you son of a bitch. I did say I will beat the pulp out of you if you want or you could have just walked away but that offer's now not valid anymore."

And, after saying that, she just ran forward with a wide smirk with her hands covered with her pure Mana.

I knew what was going to happen now, and so did Eva.

"Dumb people," Eva mumbled as she saw El instantly reaching those thugs that were neither adventurers nor anything strong.

They were normal people and the person they were surrounding right now thinking she was easy prey, was the secondary female main protagonist of this entire game, and perhaps the purest character of them all.

'She was El's favorite among the FLs. So, this 'coincidental' encounter was surely something… unique?'

Well, El liked her and these people were courting death so, instead of letting them go to the afterlife, just leaving them barely alive was a better option from her point of view.

And, though these people weren't even good enough punching bags, they surely were good enough slapping targets.

-Slap!

So, she appeared in the center of those people and slapped the person closest to the girl they were surrounding.

-Slap! Slap!

And then she slapped the two closest to him that were shocked to see how she suddenly appeared there out of nowhere.

-Slap! Slap! Slap!

-Dhum! Dhum! Dhum!

And then, she just slapped the rest of the bunch with a quick movement and those who had received her 'gentle' slaps, were thrown out in the direction of the slap's vector, with their faces red and covered by blood, their jaws dislocated and probably, if her hand had touched their head areas, then their fractured skulls.

Those simple, gentle slaps of her were more than enough to almost kill these people, and, save the person that could have killed them with her presence alone.

"Welp. That was boring."

The thugs now lay on the ground, their bodies scattered all around in this back alleyway, their faces covered in blood, but thankfully, all of them were still alive.

Not that it mattered.

"Um… thanks."

We heard a voice for the first time, a voice that we were very well familiar with, a voice that was even gentler than Eva's, a voice that was in a way cute, and also careful at the same time.

"Oh~. No problem~."

El looked at her with an excited smile and walked before her while stomping on the bodies of the unconscious thugs.

"Hello~."

And then she greeted her, took her soft, cute, pretty hand in her prettier but deadlier hands, and shook it excitedly.

And though the girl was surprised by her sudden actions, she nodded her head with the movements of her shaking hands.

"Hello to you too!"

Light blue long hair, an alluringly perfect pure body with perfect, flawless skin, and deep pink eyes that had a unique light in them, she stood there wearing a lavish and attractive dress, and a kind of attractive jewelry that you don't wear in an area like this, that perfectly showed her curves and assets.

'They probably thought she was some dumb noble young lady that had lost her way but they were the dumb bastards that couldn't even tell all the things she was wearing right now were a pretty high-level artifact with different functions.'

They were the parting gifts she received from her forest family members, and it was strange how her time of arrival overlapped with ours and we were meeting like this.

[ "In normal circumstances, she should have arrived a month earlier but… it looks like-" ]

[ "It has started already." ]

[ "Yes…" ]

The common plot had started deviating from the set path, which meant we would have to stop believing in the future that we knew about.

'In the first place, this game was created to change greatly based on the actions of the 'players'. And since we are assuming the role of those 'players' in this setting, our mere existence changed many things related to the story.'

But we knew something like this was going to happen from the start, so we weren't too surprised about this unexpected development.

But since we had met this person before anyone, else…

"I'm Auriel but you can call me El, he's my brother Lucifer, but you can call him… ummm… big brother if you want, and this is our family member Eva.

You are pretty, what's your name? What do you think about becoming our friend?"

I shook my head with a sigh.

She was just too straightforward once again. And this out of the blue friend request could have definitely shocked or surprised anyone but this girl, that used to be a terminally ill young girl in her past life who had never seen the world, someone that had been raised by only unique creatures, fairies, and spirits in this life, couldn't help but instinctively nod excitedly at El's strange offer.

"I'm Agnes B. Catherine and yes, I would love to be your friend!"

If we say she had just arrived in the capital, then this was probably the first time in her life that someone had asked to be her friend.

I can tell she was happy, and truthfully, for someone like her that had been taken advantage of many times by many bastards and bitches in the game, someone that was totally oblivious to how the world worked or even how shit of a place it was, it was probably for the best for her to be with us instead of that bastard bloodsucker.

In most of my runs, he had only used her as a fun toy to play around with. She was the one with the worst ends out of all the other protagonists… so, why not?

'Isn't it better to make a protagonist ours in a story whose plot changes with each action of each individual?'

She had the potential to surpass even the main FL and though her lifespan was small because of the way she was born, there was a way to alter that case.

She was that main character that was strong and could have been stronger than others, but there were so many death flags hanging on her head that she was certain to die one way or another.

But…

"Nice to meet you Agnes~. We will call you Nes, alright~?"

It was far better for her to be with us than to die miserably in some corner of Hell surrounded by… well, she was miserable.

She deserved better. Far better than what her fate had decided for her.

And since our dumb fate made us cross paths like this, why not?

Let's just add her to our little family too.
