Verse 167: Divergent Paths (2)

The dead old man didn't use all his strength in the end, which made Marin a little regretful, he knew that it was Gaiat who was afraid that he wouldn't be able to control his strength, but how could the dead old man know that his son didn't use all his strength in order not to kill his old man.

Without any blessings, and his strength has also been reined in, Marin simply doesn't want to beat his adoptive father to death with a stick.

Forget it, anyway, I've done my best, whether this old guy will die outside depends on whether God will accept him.

With this in mind, Marin felt that she had done her best, like Maya, a girl who was reluctant to see her father get on the train, which led once a week to the Central Provinces, where Gayat would take the train to the heart of humanity, and then east, to the Eastern Kingdoms, near the Great Dead.

Marin didn't have the idea of going to the night market to see the excitement, he accompanied Maya at home, and the little leopard girl sat in front of the fire without saying a word.

Marin looked at the book in his hand until he noticed Maya crawling to his side, and the little leopard girl leaned back on the sofa: "Brother, aren't you worried about Dad." ”

"He's already a fifty-year-old, and I don't know what else to worry about." Marin reached out and patted Maya's little head.

"But Maya is very worried...... "The little leopard girl pouted, her round ears drooped vigorously, and her beautiful tail was dragged in her hands: "Since she was sensible, Dad has often gone out, and Maya takes care of herself alone...... Brother, will you always go out like your father in the future? ”

Marin was a little silent, he didn't know how to explain it, he didn't know how to persuade people.

I could only pat her on the shoulder.

And the little leopard also deflated, she stood up, ran to the bookshelf, took out a photo album from it, and sat down next to Marin: "Dad was very handsome when he was young, and he had a very beautiful sister, and then she disappeared, I suspect that my father has been looking for an answer all these years, and why is a beautiful sister missing." ”

Following Maya's guidance, Marin saw the young man in the yellowed old photograph, a young girl with long light-colored hair sitting in front of a chair, while a young boy stood behind her.

It's like Marin and Maya at this moment, the little leopard girl is sitting on the carpet, leaning on her brother's leg, and Marin leans down and looks at the photo album in his sister's hand, he stretches out his hand, takes the photo and turns it over: "Give it to Jalende...... Sophia. ”

"I've never heard my father say the name Sophia." Maya shook her head.

"It's okay, I'll investigate tomorrow." Marin got up and rubbed Maya's head, "Don't worry, Maya, you still have me. ”

Maya nodded, and she climbed onto the couch before resting her head on Marin's lap.

"When I was very young, every time I was home alone, I would wonder if my father would be like Maya's family and not want Maya." The girl murmured.

Marin rubbed her ears: "Why do you say that?" ”

"Maya is a leopard man, my father is a human, and I don't look like a half-breed, since I can remember, I know that Gaiat is not Maya's real father, but over the years, he has raised me, although I have worked hard to survive since I was a child, but if it wasn't for the money given by my father, I would have starved to death...... Maya is just an abandoned baby. ”

Marin knew the pain, and he stretched out his hand and put it on Maya's head: "Me too." ”

"So, my brother and I are the same kind of people, both are children who are hated by their parents, so I want to help my father, Maya will only be the child of Gayat's father in this life." Maya turned her head and looked at her brother: "Brother Marin, if you become strong one day, if by that time, Dad can't come back, and Maya is gone...... Can you go find Daddy and bring him back to Maya? ”

"What are you talking about?" Marin didn't think of the sister who had become a black bride: "Did you think of another self?" ”

"Yes, brother, everyone says that mortals will eventually die, this world is so dangerous, Maya doesn't have the strength of her brother, it's normal to die that day." She said with a smile, though it looked like she was crying.

Marin had to help the cat girl up, he stretched out his hand and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes: "Believe in my brother, my brother is here, no one can hurt Maya, okay." ”

"Well, Maya trusts her brother." The little leopard girl smiled and narrowed her eyes.

Looking at her forced smile, Marin sighed: "I feel that you don't believe me, I'm sad." After saying that, Marin also pouted, and at the same time he was really unhappy in his heart.

This bullshit world, this goddamn multiverse, can't my sister live happily for the rest of her life?

No, I don't agree, no one can make my sister feel a little more regretful.

Thinking of this, Marin noticed that his sister kissed her.

Marin swore that he would kiss him for a while.

"Dad said that if you want your most beloved to be angry, kiss him." Maya looked at Marin and explained with a smile: "My brother is my most beloved person, my brother saved me in the strange Fort Carter before, and he will definitely save me elsewhere in the future, I believe in my brother." ”

"Trust me, I'll take you to the city hall tomorrow and ask who that Sophia is, and then we'll think about it in the long run." Marin got up, raised his hands and lifted his sister into the air.

In the next second, a big tail slapped Marin's face.

………………

"Marin didn't come to school today." As a classmate of the top students, Logan was very keenly aware of a problem.

Then at the end of the first lesson, he went to the great god to check and found that the super cute little god was drinking glutinous rice wine, and Maya was not visible at all.

"Maya didn't come to school today either." As a classmate of the top students, Logan was very agile to discover a clue.

Then he noticed that the mage was going to class as if nothing had happened, and he noticed Jessica come in and take a look before leaving; Noticing that Miss Cross's teleportation array was at the coordinates that had been anchored before, she poked her head out and chose to retreat.

There are more and more clues, and they are getting closer and closer to the truth - Marlin! You've made a move on your sister!

Logan, who had transformed himself into a detective, looked at Faye - he had to remind His Highness the Venerable Faye that he should teach the stealing Marlin a good lesson, which was a bad habit.

Then he saw Faye open a portalβ€”worthy of His Highness, who was able to use his own power to open the portal.

"By the way, Faye, are you going to go to Marin and tell him that I have a big business." Although he wanted to denounce Marin's evil deeds, as soon as the words came out, he was talking about business problems, and the so-called suspicion and integrity were what Logan was talking about.

"Okay, I'll tell him what you say." With that, Faye jumped into the portal.

Logan, who had stayed, nodded with great satisfaction, and then raised his head abruptly - wait a minute! She went to find him!

Thinking about it this way, there is an answer to why Lilim didn't show up - they all know the reason why Marin didn't show up for class today, and they both decided to go to him!

…… Marlin, have you already shot at all of them?!

You scumbag! I'm so envious!
