My second go at life // Orsted x oc (Mushoku Tensei)

Chapter 38

I did the things I always wanted to do for my siblings in my past life and now this life.

Aisha was kind of resistant at first, I just pouted and she accepted my affection and in the end, I'm sure she really loved it.

She couldn't stop smiling even now as I was telling her a story to put her to sleep. I told her of when we fought in the forest and met all the Beast people.

"Rude leave," I demanded confusing him, but he got up and left the room making me grin.

"Maybe as soon as you wake up Lilia will be here." I grinned and she looked really happy. "You have been through a lot but you did all of this alone, well done."

She hugged my waist and then grinned. "You are amazing, you speak so well even though you're deaf." Aisha grinned.

I trembled from the praise and ruffled her hair. "I already love you so much!" I exclaimed, and she rested her head on my lap.

Aisha was fast asleep when Eris and Ruijerd came back with Rudeus. "She's asleep?" Rudeus asked me.

"Yeah, that was why you needed to leave," I explained to him.

"Why I needed to leave? She doesn't know I'm her brother." Rudeus retorted.

"You tried to defend your actions of...the holy relic over and over again. She had a stressful time. She needs to sleep, she is only six and you are loud." I explained.

Ruijerd patted my head making me grin. "You are a good older sister." He informed me.

"Whatever they didn't have because of the mana explosion! I will give them it all!" I grinned and was shaking from the compliment. "And even more!"

Rudeus explained the situation and lied about why they had to call him Kennel Master instead of Rudeus. He wants to show Aisha his good side to correct her bad view of him.

"I think you are plenty good just the way you are," Eris admitted.

"Eris," Rudeus whined then got the creepy smile again.

"Why do you make gross faces whenever I compliment you?! Just tremble cutely like Ceres, she looks like a scared little squirrel." Eris pointed at me.

"I do?" I asked and they all nodded making me giggle. "Fart squirrel."

"Still, if that's how things are, let's charge right in!" Eris declared.

"I haven't assaulted a castle in ages," Ruijerd added.

"What? Hang on." Rudeus hissed.

"What?" Eris grumbled.

"Well, let's wait to hear from my master, okay?" Rudeus asked and looked to me for help.

"But Lilia...I want her hugs." I complained. "We can hug the guards' necks really hard."

"When did you get so violent?" Rudeus shivered.

"Family," I explained since it's to save Lilia, if some people get hurt well that's their problem for being in the way. "They can suffer a little, Lilia must have suffered a lot."
