16. Sister
After handing over the little girl who was reluctant to part with him to the head maid, and instructing the head maid to clean up for her and take her to the study later, Merlin followed the memory of the original owner to the castle bathroom.
Along the way, he once again flipped through the original owner's book of memory, consolidating the original owner's image of the cheap sister, so as not to overturn when he, an impostor, faced the old sister.
His witch sister can be said to be the culprit who caused the tragic fate of the original owner, if it weren't for her, the original owner should still have parents who love him, have the throne to inherit in the future, and have a happy and happy life, where do you need to hide in this dark and dark castle every day like now, and live alone.
It stands to reason that the original owner should hate this sister very much, gritting his teeth with hatred, and longing to eat her flesh raw, but looking at the memory of the original owner, Merlin found that the original owner's feelings for this sister were unexpectedly complicated.
There are complaints, but they can't reach the point of hatred, because when the empire collapsed more than ten years ago, the original owner was too young, just a newborn baby who didn't know anything.
What do you expect a baby to think about the events of that time?
He even learned what happened from the head maid when he grew up.
He had never met the king and queen in the real sense, nor had he personally experienced their love, so naturally he had no feelings, except that he knew that they were his parents, and those two people were just two strangers to the original owner.
As for the throne or something, he has no real sense of it.,There's nothing to lose if you don't have it at all.,Plus the original owner wasn't a person with a strong desire for power.,In fact, he's quite satisfied with the quiet life of hiding in the castle with books.。
Therefore, his view of his sister ruining everything for him is at best to the extent that he felt a little sorry that he could not experience it for himself when he saw the description of the family's affection in the book when he was reading the book.
And when it comes to family affection, the original owner's feelings for this sister may be a little deeper, because he was raised by this witch sister.
For the witch sister, his younger brother is a very unsightly existence, after all, he snatched the father's love that should have belonged to her, anyway, in the memory of the original owner, that cheap sister was disgusted and disgusted every time she saw him, and she was a cynicism at every turn.
However, I have to say that in addition to the disgusted face that I don't feel after seeing too much and the poisonous tongue that I don't care about at all after listening to too much, this sister is unexpectedly qualified.
Due to her busy schedule, she was unable to take care of Merlin herself, so she cursed the entire castle to keep the servants behind to take care of him.
And even if he was busy with work, the original owner remembered that this sister would take at least one day a month to visit him in the castle, and she had been like this for more than ten years, and she had never been absent.
Merlin was present when he first learned to speak, and he was also present when he first learned to read and write, and she was absent from almost all the important moments when the little prince had grown up to this day.
When the original owner was still ignorant in his youth, he liked this sister very much in his heart, and what he looked forward to most every month was the day when his sister came to visit him.
And when the original owner grew up day by day, finally became sensible, and understood that his sister was his biggest enemy, he really almost collapsed, and he ran over to ask his sister angrily, why did he hate him so much, but he still took care of her so much.
And the witch sister's answer at the time was the most profound memories of the original owner's life, and even the description of this memory in Merlin's integrated book of memories was specially illustrated.
The charming-looking elf witch showed a sarcastic smile, looking at her younger brother who had been raised single-handedly, and there was a strong hatred in her eyes that could not be concealed.
"Why do you think I'm taking care of you?"
The witch asked the immature prince rhetorically, but she was not in a hurry to explain, this was a little bit of a story about that night more than ten years ago.
"That night was supposed to be a night of revenge that I had planned for more than ten years, watching the man who abandoned me and my mother lose everything he had little by little, the subjects who originally loved him doubted him, and the wife who originally loved him disliked him, his pale justification was meaningless, and he could only fall into the abyss of despair of betrayal and separation little by little."
"My sweet brother, do you know how wonderful my mood was at that moment?"
"I thought that in that case, the man should have realized that I was a daughter, and he should have started to reflect on the stupidity of his abandonment of me and my mother in the first place."
"And yet ......"
The witch's voice suddenly raised and became unusually angry.
"And yet...... Even though I ruined everything he cherished, the man never looked at me as a daughter in the end, and even the only thing he said to me was to make me take good care of you, my dear brother, do you know how I felt at that moment. ”
The bewitching witch put her face in front of the prince, and the distance between the two was so close that the prince could clearly feel his sister's breathing, and in the same way, he could better perceive the sister's heartfelt disgust for him in front of him.
"I wished I strangled you damn bastard in the cradle in front of that man."
The beautiful witch uttered such vicious words word by word, and the young prince was frightened by the terrifying aura that emanated from his sister, and he sat down on the ground in a daze, looking at his sister, who seemed to be nervous, with a frightened look.
However, the next moment, the sister, who was still fierce before, carefully pulled the little prince up from the ground and comforted him softly.
"Take it easy, my lovely brother, how could my sister do something like that? In any case, taking good care of you is the only agreement between me and my father, and this is the first and only request he has made to me so far, and I will keep it. ”
"My dear brother, you are my last relative, even if I hate you so much and envy you, I will still try to accept you, fall in love with you, care about you more than anyone else, and become a qualified sister."
The witch reassured the little prince trembling in her arms with great seriousness.
That night was the biggest nightmare in the original owner's life, and it was from that day that the original owner gradually became sensible, and he was no longer as close to this sister as before, but he was not estranged.
He will fulfill his sister's request for him, and strive to learn all the knowledge that a good prince should have, and he can't wait to soak in the library, and the witch will still visit him at least once a month, as if everything is as usual.
"Mom, I'll go, what a terrible sister-brother relationship this is."
Merlin looked up at the window in the hallway with a desperate look on his face.
He had a new understanding of the danger of this sister, even if he was still in the state of the demon king now, and had a power that was already very powerful for humans, but as long as he thought of the figure of the witch, even the demon king's heart trembled.
After all, this demon king's heart was dug out from the living demon king's chest by that witch herself more than ten years ago.
The strongest witch in history, one of the Seven Sages of the Wizarding Guild, guardian of the elves, apostle of despair and calamity, leader of the witch organization Witch Night, destroyer of the country, and the one who ended the demon king - Cynthia. Grace. Sarina.
That's the name of Merlin's cheap old lady.
Merlin: "......"
Ah, unfortunate.
