Mystery: Who has seen my brother?

Chapter 42 Queen
Eve glanced at the embarrassed Klein and sighed helplessly in her heart. She knew it would be like this.

"Call me whatever you want," Eve said, spreading her hands. "I hear Miss and Madam come here every day. Why would I be afraid of a 'sister' like you?"

"Uh...sister..." Klein called out tentatively, still feeling a little awkward. After all, it would take time for a brother to become a sister.

"I'm not embarrassed, why should you be embarrassed?" Eve put her hands on her hips, with some dissatisfaction and strangeness in her tone.

Shouldn't this kind of thing be embarrassing? Klein muttered to himself.

Fortunately, Eve didn't actually ask Klein for an answer. He would have been embarrassed if the topic had continued. Instead, he said, "Let me introduce you to a new family member, Ruirui. Call me sister."

As Eve finished speaking, a black cat with a white collar appeared on the windowsill and lightly jumped in front of Klein. Eve picked up Ruirui with both hands and held her up to Klein's eye level.

Klein looked at the familiar cat and was stunned for a moment. Shouldn't it be his brother? Then he realized that "sister" was referring to Ruirui. He raised his hand and pointed at Ruirui, "Sister..."

"Yeah." Eve put Ruirui down and nodded confidently, saying, "I'm doing this for your own good."

Klein asked speechlessly, "Why are you thinking about me?"

"Don't you think," Eve stretched out her hands, clenched her fists, and placed them beside her cheeks, her knees bent. She looked shy and said in a hushed voice, "'Sister, save me' is easier to say than 'Sister, save me'."

"I could also yell 'Rarity, save me', wait!" Klein was just complaining when he suddenly realized what was happening. He pointed at himself and said in disbelief, "Rarity's name..."

"I admit," Eve sighed helplessly and said with a sad look, "I've had the thought of missing you when I saw a cat. I thought I would never see you again, and when I saw a cat that looked so much like you, I couldn't help but..."

How is it similar...

Klein and Ruirui both rolled their eyes at Eve in their minds.

In that case, my brother... uh... sister should be a fellow villager of Mirror Angel.

Wow, my sister is actually an angel!
The last bit of doubt in Klein's heart vanished. Although his previous outrageous idea suggested that whatever Eve said could be false, that speculation was merely a random thought in Klein's panic. Even he found it unreliable, and Eve had fully proven her authenticity.

After all, he hadn't even crossed over when Ruirui appeared, so what was his merit...

and many more!

My sister and I traveled through time very close together, so why is there such a huge difference? Is time flowing at a different rate? A difference of thousands of years is huge!
"Sister, why did you come here so much earlier than me?" Klein asked.

"This is a long story, so..." Eve stretched out her words, glanced at Klein, whose face was filled with curiosity, and slowly uttered the last few words: "I won't go into details."

"Shouldn't we keep it short?" Klein complained, but he didn't ask any further questions. If his sister felt it was okay to tell him about such a big thing as time travel, she would naturally tell him. There must be some reason for not saying anything.

"how did you find me?"

"I met you in Backlund today, and I felt the aura of Sefirah Fort. Our journey through time is related to Sefirah Fort. Every traveler carries the aura of Sefirah Fort upon their journey through time, so I confirmed that you were a fellow traveler from my hometown. I did a divination and knew it was you," Eve explained.

"Source Castle?" A hint of thought flashed in Klein's eyes. "Is it an ancient bronze castle covered in gray fog?" Eve nodded and sighed again. She felt that the number of times she sighed had increased sharply since she met Klein. What a troublesome brother.

"You have to become an angel quickly, um... that is, Sequence Two." Eve said solemnly to Klein.

Klein was shocked. "Sister, please listen to what you are saying. I just became a Beyonder."

Eve knew exactly what she was talking about. Klein was now bound to Sefirah Castle. Even though he was only a rookie at Sequence Nine, he had already entered the race to compete for the position of mystery.

Personally, Eve, who had witnessed Mikhail's fall, did not want Klein to become the Lord of Mysteries, but she also did not want him to become a victim of the birth of mysteries.

But if we talk about fairness, Klein is undoubtedly the most suitable one to be the "savior" among those currently on the track.

Therefore, Eve's decision was to train Klein to be an angel first. That way, if he wanted to withdraw from the competition, he could give up Sefirah Castle and get away with it. If he wanted to continue participating, he would have the capital to compete, and Eve would support his choice.

It may not be his choice...

Eve sighed in her heart again. It was so awful...

Klein didn't know what Eve was thinking. However, after she said seriously that he would become a Sequence Two, he became a little... well... Klein couldn't describe the feeling, but he could sense that she seemed to be in a bad mood.

"I'll try my best," Klein said tentatively. "Why do you want to become an angel?"

"Because you're in big trouble," Eve glanced at Klein, "You have to become an angel to survive."

"What kind of trouble have you gotten yourself into?" Klein was frightened, and his sleepiness was somewhat dispelled. He asked hurriedly with concern.

"That's a lot," Eve said, ignoring Klein's panicked and concerned look. She spoke leisurely, as if she was just discussing what to eat tonight rather than her "glorious achievements." "I'll tell you slowly later. If you want, you can tell some of it now as a bedtime story."

"Bedtime story," Klein repeated in his heart with some dissatisfaction. "Let's tell it tomorrow. If I don't rest now, I won't be able to get up tomorrow."

"Okay then," Eve shrugged nonchalantly. She took out a pen and a piece of paper and began writing on it. Then she took out a small mirror and handed it to Klein along with the paper. "My honorific name is on it. If you want to contact me, just say my honorific name. Good night."

"Wait!" Klein suddenly called out to Eve. Although his tone was a little urgent, his voice was still low, for fear of waking up his sister next door.

Seeing Eve turn and look at him, Klein considered for a moment and said, "I've organized a party at Sefirah Castle. Do you want to join?"

Eve raised an eyebrow, immediately interested, "Okay."

Klein's honey-brown eyes sparkled with a smile. "The party members are named after tarot cards. Choose one for yourself."

Eve lowered her head, resting the back of her hand on her chin. After two seconds of silence, she said, "Queen."
