System I Want Revenge

Arc 4 Chapter 5

A'Yuan was deeply confused when he saw the person. Same soul and all but why is it that he is with other girl?

After investigating, he quickly went off with his findings.

Cordilia sipped on the wine in her hand and scroll on Weibo while listening to A'Yuan's report.

Cordilia did not know where the sudden rage came from, she crushed the glass in her hand. Startling the sister con.

"Ah! Baby sis! Are you okay!?" Liu Qingqing fussed over and called a maid to clean up the mess

"I'm fine, sister. I don't feel well... I should rest now" Cordilia said and immediately head off to her room

A'Yuan was stunned at the reaction. Even Cordilia herself was confused with her reaction. She leaned on the door and clutched her chest, breathing in and out to reign in her emotion

[Host?] A'Yuan asked, worried.

Cordilia was silent for a few minutes, worrying A'Yuan even more.

'I'm fine' Cordilia reassured and walked towards the bathroom and rinsed her bloody hand that was healed by A'Yuan before preparing for a bath.

Cordilia soaked in the rose petal milk bath while thinking.

"A'Yuan seems to be familiar with that soul" Cordilia said casually as she could, her tone laced with curiousity while absentmindedly playing with the roses in the milk bath.

[Not me... You. You're more familiar with him that I am Host] A'Yuan answered the silent question 'Who is he'

Cordilia blinked and looked at A'Yuan, [Seems like he is a person from my past] Cordilia said before closing her eyes and leaned more on the bathtub.

"How extraordinary would the ties be for me to feel some emotion. Not even Xue Jin Ying triggered such reaction" Cordilia said and sighed tiredly

[I'm quite confused too, Host. Although you don't remember, you two don't exactly are close nor were you distant... Ah, pardon me, it was you who kept everyone at bay. No one was able to close in the distance, Host] A'Yuan said, Cordilia hummed

"Was I that bad, A'Yuan?" Cordilia asked

A'Yuan did not answer

"What's his name? His real name" Cordilia finally asked

A'Yuan hesitated before he opened his mouth, [His name is Elreste. You knew him hundreds of years ago, almost a thousand years now] A'Yuan answered

Cordia opened her eyes in surprise, "I haven't noticed I lived that long enough"

A'Yuan shook his head, [It may be only a short feeling for you host, but while your soul was scattered, Master collected it fragment by fragment. Its almost a thousand years now. It's that long. You don't know because Host was not conscious at that time] A'Yuan answered

Cordilia was silent for a while, A'Yuan did not dare speak, he gave time to his Host to process what he said.

"I see" Cordilia sighed and looked at the ceiling

The two stayed silent for a long time before Cordilia washed up and dressed in her pajamas, she laid down on the bed and looked at A'Yuan.

"A'Yuan" Cordilia called

[Yes, Host?] A'Yuan answered

"From now on, call me Cordilia" Cordilia said before she turned her back to A'Yuan and turned the light off

Leaving the stunned system whom smiled, [Alright, good night Cordilia]
