When siblings reunite, there can be a tense atmosphere;

Such a special scene is not often seen.

Yuu is not the kind of person who would let a whole conspiracy go to waste just because of a quarrel.

He starts to realize:

He can't antagonize his sister too much on the surface, he must go along with her wishes.

Yuu changes his approach, as cunning as putting a nut in front of a hamster, trying to lure her into a trap:

"Sister doesn't want me to hurt the person behind you?"

"Yes!"

"If that's what sister wants, then brother will do it... but before that, can you come over here first?"

"What for?"

The hands holding the sword never relax, proving from the side:

Cai hardly believes in her elder brother's goodwill!

Under her strong suspicion, Yuu, the hidden brother, shows his gentlest side, seemingly sincerely advising:

"Brother has no other intentions, just wants to take a good look at you."

"Rather than seeing my grown-up sister, brother probably wishes for the person behind me to die at any time."

"It's all a misunderstanding, brother's mission is to expel the demon race, but there's no insistence on the target's death..."

"The soldiers who kill with all their might are not just randomly fighting!"

"I've already said it's a misunderstanding! Brother is worried about his most important sister being harmed, misunderstood that you were being held hostage by the demons, hence the impulsive behavior."

"Isn't brother impulsive now?"

"As long as sister gets closer, and let brother confirm your safety, I won't see the demon race as a thorn in my side anymore, and the soldiers' encirclement can be lifted immediately."

The lies were so well fabricated that they seemed real.

Some very naive soldiers were almost going to believe Yuu is a good brother who cares about his sister in this "show of true affection".

Whether to believe in the brother's confession is completely up to Cai.

The conditions set by Yuu seem tempting at first glance.

Cai only needs to approach a bit, let her brother confirm that she is not mentally controlled by the demon race, and then the siblings can reminisce;

In this way, the encircling net spread across the battlefield can be instantly removed, ensuring Wang's personal safety.

Cai ponders for a long time while lowering her gaze.

At a certain moment, she suddenly opens her eyes, a glint flashing in her pupils;

That glimmer quickly disappears, returning to her usual calm eyes.

Her personal will is beyond others' understanding.

Since the recognition of the siblings, Wang has never spoken up or intervened.

Wang leaves the choice to Cai, and no matter what choice she makes, he hopes for her safety.

Time dissipates like flowing sand.

When Cai turns around and faces Wang directly, he understands that she has made up her mind!

"I can doubt anyone, except for you! And you, I can trust unconditionally."

The unreasonable words that Wang said a few days ago, the girl not only remembers, but also firmly believes in.

The words fade away with the wind, as her figure strides forward.

The steps with a sword in hand are fast, but just to be safe, Yuu makes an additional request:

"Don't bring the sword, siblings meeting shouldn't be a fight."

If the cross sword is not discarded, the shield soldiers protecting Yuu will definitely not remove their protection.

Without much thought, before she came before her brother, the Cross Sword, held in her right hand, loosened and fell to the ground with a bright glint of snow.

At the same time, Yōu pushed aside the shield soldiers with both hands and approached step by step.

He wanted to ensure that the moment he first came into contact with his sister, he would seize her and then force Wang to commit suicide with his sword.

When Yōu moved away from his subordinates' protection and exposed himself in front of Cǎi, a sudden change occurred!

Before the falling Cross Sword could hit the ground, Cǎi's eyes suddenly became bright.

With her rich experience in swordplay, she had pretended to abandon her sword earlier and took advantage of the moment when Yōu let his guard down to react swiftly.

Cǎi lifted her right leg, and as her bent shin touched the Cross Sword, she used her knee to launch the sword upwards.

The spinning blade rose to Cǎi's chest and, following her reaching hand, was firmly grasped;

Her overlapping hands climbed up the hilt, and with the push of her ten fingers, along with Cǎi's forward-leaning movement, the sword flashed out in a fierce thrust.

Sssh!

It was precisely because Yōu had moved away from the protection of his soldiers that he was stabbed in the abdomen just now;

And it was because he had planned to manipulate his sister that he inevitably fell into her trap.

From the moment blood dropped, Cǎi didn't suspect that her brother was deceiving her.

It should be said that:

Cǎi never believed in her brother to begin with.

She endured and went along with it; not long ago, she was still a good person, but that didn't mean she was easily fooled!

As she would later assert, Cǎi emphasized her personal will:

"Your sister no longer exists. The person who just stabbed you is called Cǎi! That is the name that person gave me..."

The blade rotated and further pierced into Yōu's body, until it reached the hilt.

Faintly, Cǎi remembered a saying:

In one's lifetime, one can only choose one identity and stick to it.

When she was first asked this question, Cǎi couldn't give an accurate answer.

But at the moment she chose to stand by Wang's side, and at the instant when she thrust the blade, she finally understood:

She had only one identity in this life.

She was Cǎi, the human girl who cared most about that person!
