Re:write The Authors Transmigration-Chapter 247: The red carpet [3]

The castle ended in ruins and his stream closed and he dragged his unconscious companion leaving everyone with a cliffhanger. Days later Persevis wakes up being nursed in the hands of demons along with the sight of his sister enjoying a cup of tea. It wasn’t the weirdest thing he saw for the oddity was the disappearance of a certain requirement for the story to advance

[System: The advancement requirement to purge the [Demon King] has been terminated?]

"Big bro I think it’s been two days since I asked... im curious as to how you’re able to do the impossible. I’ll keep this as our little secret so just tell me, please,"

’Sophie...? Who’s she talking to? Urgh, it’s so dark. Is this death? Did she die as well...’

Sophie was unaware of the awakening and his brother and Morris played along without ever mentioning Persevis. "There’s a lot of things to consider here so I’ll give you the short version... the life and death contract is a function mainly available for players. One of the few functions that exist that not even the most powerful game master could ever break,"

"Then... if we did pledge our lives why did you have to whack my brother? It doesn’t make sense why you’d go to such lengths. I can’t understand why, and you of all people were said to be cunning so would you enlighten me?" Though confused she wasn’t angered by his action and proceeded to ask the reason for his acts

"Contracts are powerful when one of the main reasons is about to be breached. I said that the game masters have no power but if word gets out that the key figures did, they would’ve taken away the function. That’s the reason why I spread my allies and made him think I was plotting for a diabolical plan. But all I did was sneak in and persuade you to make a contract," He said as he sipped his tea

"What’s this contract!!!" Persevis could no longer refuse to remain still as he exudes a killing intent against Morris

"Brother! You’re finally awake. I was so worried you’d never wake up... I thought you would’ve died. I was scared because I have no power to help or even assist you in any way," Sophie tightly hugged his injured sibling with her warm arms and tearful eyes buried deeper in his chest

"It’s fine Sophie, big brothers here. You don’t have to worry, I’ll never leave your side. I promise you, even if I have to escape through hell. I’ll come back, and you!" His emotion quickly shifted from such a joyous tone to a rageful manner paired with murderous intent as he pointed his finger

"What? Don’t I get thank you? God, you’re the same as always. Do you think im low enough to make your sister my slave? How could you! Even if im vile im not that evil, plus I don’t like children. Maybe I’ll accept her if she confesses to me ten years from now— Whoa it’s a joke dude, can’t you even see that?" He avoids a mug thrown by Persevis whilst keeping his atrocious manner and vulgar jokes, that aside Persevis is relieved

"Sigh... a contract huh? How did that even work? As per the condition why did it have to be my sister, you could’ve picked anyone. I’m confused as Sophie," He irritatingly said after seeing a sight of his sister sitting on his lap and caressed with such care

"You see for the contract I need relations to the target. It can be anything, romantic, spiritual, and lastly biological. You two are siblings and even in this game, it doesn’t matter if your bodies changed, the souls haven’t. Sophie Alvarez and Felix Alvarez remain the same even though you two are now your game characters," He replied while casually stroking Sophie’s head as if she were his little plaything

"What’s your condition? If her wish was to keep me alive then naturally the contract needs an equivalent exchange or it wouldn’t work. Sophie... did you offer yourself–" Before he could say any further Morris slapped him for ever thinking such a thing

"What part of me saying that im not into children that you don’t fucking understand! I just asked for her freedom. You’re a good brother but you’re horrible when it comes to reading her mood. Sophie felt useless having done nothing, so I asked her if she wanted to be trained. The blood of the Asura was no coincidence, she was destined to wield that sacred treasure in the first place," Silence filled the room, and before anything, a wail originated from her sister and sadness engulfed her face

"I’m s-sorry brother! I can’t take it anymore, you always want the best for me but you never did. You lock me away from any hardship and whenever I fall you chain me down from your sight. I just can’t... I feel so useless sitting like some sort of doll, I want to help as well, hic, hic!!!" He left the room for the siblings to quietly resolve this ever-growing tension she had hidden for so long in her life

’Even if I forgot to write the character sheet of Sophie Alvarez, never have I once forgotten to write Felix’s struggles. As smart and cunning as he was Alvarez lived an unfortunate life, born with a drunk of a mother and an abusive father. Every day was hell until his sister came along, the only light that extinguished his darkest moment, then one day he overheard his parents. They talk about their 2nd child Sophie a bright and cheerful girl who was planned to be sold. The dealers were the loan sharks and they planned to buy her for a high price and make her a prostitute,’

"... sigh, that was the day Persevis left their house along with his sister. They escaped, not from their parents, but from the crime scene where the lifeless carcasses of their origin. He lived as a hustler till he earned enough to leave that life and start a fresh new life, in that time he learned of the rise of cryptocurrency. One of which was the easiest way of earning money, the addictive vrmmo The World of Trials,"

"If everything I have can’t save me from the hands of death might as well cling tightly to Lady Luck. Well then it’s time for the Demon King to get back in the game, It’s great that I asked Felix about the tree’s location. I didn’t want to go back, those siblings must be bawling their eyes as I speak," Just the tip of his finger brushing the surface of the colossal tree was all it took for him to breach its defense

Suddenly his surroundings which were once all white changed and shifted to a particular time. He finds himself in a technologically advanced era full of machines and brimming with peace. But one thing was certain, this wasn’t the future but a recorded memory of the past. As he notices such detail he wondered to himself how such an era would regress to the medieval ages
