Chapter-66

[ Grayfia POV ]

Looking around at the home which I missed so much while I was there, I couldn't help but feel nostalgia especially considering many things happened that changed my whole perspective about many things

coming back home and seeing Mother who hadn't changed even after all this time, made me feel very fortunate, especially knowing that even though for me it's only a few months but for her it's years while I was gone

Remembering how my mom loved me and my sister, I can't imagine how much pain she was in when I went missing and she couldn't find me all that time

But now seeing her into her usual self, I felt relief especially when she believed me even though my story was unbelievable

*Sigh*

I couldn't help but feel guilty after telling her half-lie and half-truth, it's not like I wanted to hide it but I didn't want to make her wary about me more than before

Even though I am sure that 'being' won't make a move on me or my family because my master is with me, still I doubt that my mom will believe in him especially when she meets him for the first time

Let's think about these things later, right now my main priority is Lily, I don't know what happened to Lily all the time while I was gone 

But I can guess from her tone that it was no good at all, otherwise, she should be running towards me like previous times when she used to run towards me whenever I came back home from somewhere 

Sadly for some reason, she didn't even show herself up this time, something must have happened to her

With those thoughts in my mind, I reached my Little sister's room as I took a deep breath and knocked on the door

*Silence*

'Is she asleep?' I inwardly thought of this after getting no response but it seems not possible, especially at this time of the day

*Knock* *Knock*

I knocked on the door again in just hope she would open the door otherwise I might need to take matters into my own hands and open the teleportation portal inside her room 

Since distance is very short, I am pretty sure I can use that Teleportation skill without needing to transform 'Am I right?'

[ Yes ]

Hearing the system answer, I was reassured even though my master told me to not rely on the system but it wouldn't hurt to ask questions right? Especially now when the system has no contact with that 'being'

*Open*

I quickly put my all previous thoughts in my mind, as I saw the door opening slowly while o familiar figure showed up

"Hello sister" She greeted with a not-so-happy expression like she was getting a stranger which is not fit for my sister's character

"Hey Lily, can I come in?" I asked this with a smile since I wanted to have a good talk with my sister again even though she had changed and become a little gloomy but…..still, she was as cute as ever

Lily went silent after hearing me, but after a moment she slowly nodded her head and slowly moved to give me space to come inside

As I came inside, I saw her entire room had changed which was normal considering the fact it's been years since she last saw me but still is weird for me who had only been away for a few months

Come to think of Lily has grown up now she is nearly tall as me luckily I am still taller and I hope it will remain the same since I don't want her to grow up especially since I was not present for her all that time when she might need me

She has pure white hair and rudy eyes like my mom while wearing pyjamas, she looks very adorable I really wanna hug her but first I need to what happened to her all these years

especially now I looked around in her room, I found some arranged things… is that a computer? I don't remember computers looking so… weird, I guess technology must have advanced too

"What are these?" I said this as I pointed at some mechanical box connected with some kind of weird remote since I didn't where to begin a conversation

"Its device produced by the human world called 'console' to play games for entertainment," Lily said as she sat on her big bed

Oh I see, it seems the human world has become more advanced and it seems reasonable, that even though humans don't have much of a lifespan still they are the race to evolve fastest at least in my opinion

Especially after knowing my master was once a human, my opinion of humans also improved a lot even though he was not a human from my world

And games, how can I forget how much Lily likes to play games with me in past but it seems now she only plays alone

If she didn't mind then I don't mind playing with her even though most probably she will reject me since she has grown up now

"Anything you want sister?" She asked this which made me stunned because her way was asking like she only wanted me to know what I am here for and then wanted me to leave which was very out of her character

"Nothing, I just want to meet my sister and have a good chat with you after all it's been a while since I was not here for you," I said in this soft tone and somewhat guilty tone as I sat beside her

"..." Lily didn't speak at all as she sat down on the couch near the bed while she looked sideways…. More like she is avoiding looking into my eyes

"Who is that man?" Lily asked this with a cold tone as she was not happy with my master at all Or more like she was angry
