Lukas's POV

"Oh... I see, Thanks." I hung up on the phone.

I was talking to Lucy's doctor.

I looked at my sister who is in the garden with Brandish and Ajeel.

I looked at her sadly, It happen 2 years ago when she lost her senses. I have to link mine to hers, so she could be able to have a little sense.

ಥ_ಥ Flashback, 2 years agoಥ_ಥ

Brandish and Eileen were taking her for a walk. It's been a month since that horrifying dinner. Things changed. His Majesty had proclaimed the room as the Tianti Room. So the other people, even the citizens since the word got out, we seriously have wordy maids around, thought that it was for our Empress. His Majesty denied it immediately seeing the horror in my face.

“That room is specifically from the Celestial God's prospective younger sister,” He stated,“You are to give the same amount of respect to her as you respect me,”

Those are his words. His words basically saying that Lucy has an equal stand to him as a ruler.

I smiled as I saw them having fun. Eileen actually called Lucy her daughter two days again, her reason? She wasn't able to spend time like this with her own, with Lucy, it felt like her daughter was around.

I turned my attention to the bunch of paperwork that are in front of me. Could Invel just seriously let me off on this. This is his job! Not mine!

I was actually doing it, until I heard Brandish screamed. I left everything I was doing and went to their side almost immediately.

“What happened!?” I asked in panic. My teacher and possibly my love interest were next to my sister, who had fallen down.

“I don't know!” Brandish panicked, trying to explain everything,“One moment we were just leisurely walking then she collapse! She was just okay minutes ago, I swear! I don't know what's happening!”

I turned my sister for her to look at me. Eileen left to call for the doctors. I was surprised. Her eyes are dull..

“Lucy? Hey,” I patted her right cheek, trying to get her look at me,“Luce? Hey. This ain't funny. Come on, talk to us,”

“Lukas...” Her raspy voice called out, her hands reaching out to no one.

“I—” “Where are you?” She cut off with her quivering raspy voice, her hands were still reaching to no one. Brandish and I were in shock. No way.. This can't be happening..“I can't feel you.. Big brother.. Where are you?”

She also can't move, that's why she's always in her wheel chair His Majesty gave her on the very day she can't move.

I cried almost every night for the past years. The doctors said, on the first time she collapsed 3 years ago, that she was going to die. But they were surprised when she was able to hold on.

Turns out, after Mom died someone put a poison inside of her that was supposed to take in after 15 years, which was 3 years ago. It have a cure but it wasn't been discovered yet, that's why many people died because of this poison.

They even said that, she had a purpose for holding on. Even, I didn't know that. But whatever or whoever they are, I want to see or meet them myself, for the sake of my younger sister.

Whenever she moved or someone move her roughly, she would always shout in pain. Those are one of the effects of the poison.

Her lungs can't even work properly, her breath is uneven. It really hurts me to see her like this.
