There was luxurious scenery inside. The carriage was decorated with expensive jewels and artefacts.
Swiftly, I moved my gaze to the left and right corners of our compartment only to find it filled with explosives. Even a tenth level powerhouse will not be able to survive this.
Lena was sitting in front of me, our compartment was completely quiet, except Lena and me no was sitting here.
We are currently sitting in the last compartment of the carriage while father, stepmother and Freya are sitting in front compartments followed by Alan and Bryan in the middle.
Freya wanted to sit with me but my stepmother Lily pulled her with herself, it was a little strange but no one minded it much.
Though I know the truth, she was just digging Lena and my grave today, even though I knew I didn't stop her actions... It looks like I can finally get a new direction in my life.
Lina was looking outside the carriage while playing with her hair, to be honest, I found her current appearance pretty tempting but I still held myself back.
Finally, unable to endure anymore I broke the silence.
"Sister about yesterday..."
She looked at me in surprised expression. "But we are brother and sister you know...."
Even though she does not speek further I understood the lying meaning behind her words, right although this world does not take incest as sin like in my previous world still no one got a good feeling towards it and even considered a taboo by many.
... Well but for immortals concept of incest doesn't matter to much them anyway, who is going to remind she is your sister after thousands of year and you have power enough that people dare not to speak.
I smiled slightly, looked at her into the eyes and grasped her hand, she struggled a little, but did not back it away.
"I do not mind, as long as you agree."
She put on a conflicted expression but shortly after pulled her hand away and smiled at me apologetically. "... I need time to think."
I didn't push it any further and just nodded in serious manner, this cannot be achieved in one day we need to be patient.
There was a strange atmosphere inside the carriage.
I hesitated slightly before asking Lena in front of me. "Hey, big sis, if we.... have a chance to start a new life without father and stepmom, will you agree?"
Lena narrowed her eyes and stared at me strangely, before putting on an uncertain expression.
"I don't know."
She chuckled slightly before putting on a self-deprecating smile. "To be frank I hate father and stepmother for their treatment towards us, still I have the blood of father and I am unable to bring myself to hate him entirely even after all this."
I stared at Lena for a while and smiled wryly, as expected she still have hopes about the father.
... After all, she is not like me, a emotionless being.
Lena was surprised at Leon behaving strangely today."Brother is there something wrong?!" She asked, worried.
I looked at her and just shook my head and said nothing.
"Brother if somettt..."
She wanted to say something but at the same time, I jumped on her and pulled her in a tight hug.
"!!"
Lena was surprised but she could ask anything a deafening explosion resounded.
...
When Lena opened her eyes, she was few kilometres away from the carriage, she stared dumbly in front of her at the carriage which was completely exploded by half in bits and pieces.
Her face turn ghastly pale, finally, she turned towards me."B-B-Brother this-s..." Her voice was trembling with fright while speaking.
I stared at Lena anxiously before moving towards her and pulling her into a hug.
...Sigh, just hope she won't develop trauma from this.
We stayed like that for a while then, I finally loosened my arms around her. She is pretty calm right now but still, she can't hide the nervousness and slight fear, on her face.
I pulled Lena by her hand and sat down on a rock nearby, she put her head on my shoulders as we both quietly observed the half exploded carriage in front of us.
The fire was finally put off by the mages, the carriage 3rd compartment was destroyed completely along a little part of 2nd compartment.
Bryan was a little injured while Alan was completely fine.
Bryan was grinning looking towards carriage debris even though he was a little injured. Alan has a complete indifferent expression.
My Stepmother was looking towards the carriage in a sad expression, well even guards can tell she is faking it.
My Father was looking towards it with a complicated expression but there was no trace of loss on his face.
Lena looked at the father expression and frowned, there was a faint sense of loss on her face which was quickly replaced by melancholy.
Finally, two bodies were dugged out which were identical to me and Lena but completely burned.
At the same time, a trembling Freya slumped down near the carriage and started crying loudly. I and Lena both looked towards her with but there is nothing that can be done now.
"Those bodies..." Lena turned towards me and asked nervously.
"Don't worry, these are the bodies of two dead people which I teleported there, after changing their appearance similar to us." I smiled slightly and comforted her.
...Actually, they were random two people that I grabbed from a hundred kilometres affar but it's not like I am gonna tell her about it.
Lena looked towards me in a daze for a while but asked nothing, she knows this cannot be done without the strength of the least peak of the tenth layer of cultivation or demigod level.
I also said nothing, we both keep watching the scene quietly in front of us.
Finally, I told Lena an excuse that my body type is different from others that's why I was able to achieve demigod level at the age of 18, though it was an absurd reason but she choose to believe me.
My sister's strength is currently at the peak fourth level of cultivation, while she is known as a genius for achieving the fourth level at 19 years old age. So we can guess what type of monster I am.
...My age is also in the thousands but I can't tell her or else it will create a sense of alienation between us.
In between my aunt, Terra Farray also came, she is a teacher at the Imperial Institute. She is a genius who has achieved the tenth level at thirty-eight years old age. Her anger completely exploded on the spot making nearby people pale with fear.
I send her a mental communication telling her that we both are fine, she don't need to worry, we both are fine and will contact her soon so no need to act rashly. Then before she can react I cut down the communicattion.
She looked around in bewilderment and still angered upon my father and stepmother but said nothing and left after a while.
I didn't send a metal communication to Freya as she is still young and may not be able to control her emotions.
...There was another reason that I wanted to plant a seed of hatred on Freya mind towards her mother and father. Even though she look innocent she is smart girl, enough to know it's a plot. I'm scum, I know and I'm not ashamed of that. To be honest, I don't mind sleeping with any kind of girl or woman, married or not, relative or not, in-law or not, older or younger. Moreover, I don't mind using dirty tricks to get them. Perhaps it can sound egocentric, but while I have the power to make them happy, it's alright for me regardless of how our relationship starts.
We sat there for one hour more, after that the site of the accident was cleared entirely.
I waited for a while, finally, Lena moved her gaze towards me with with a self-deprecating smile. "...Brother about starting a new life I don't think it's a bad idea."
I stared at her a while before pulling her head on my chest and patted her back. "You can cry, you know."
...tip, tip.
Slowly, few teardrops fall down to the ground, I patted her back slightly and let her cry.
"B-Brother *sob* *sob* Why di-did...*sob*…"
I could only continue patting her head. After crying for a few minutes like that, she fell asleep while hugging me tightly.
In the evening, Lena opened her eyes groggily.
She felt a bit tired for some reason. Moreover, she realized that she was not in her room.
A bit startled, she looked around the room, she then saw a pair of deep black eyes focused on her.
"Finally, awake." I said with a smile.
Lena opened her eyes wide. For a brief moment, she did not understand what was happening.
Then, memories of morning rushed to her head.
Instantly, Lena's face turned bitter.
"… Where are we?"
I smiled towards Lena softly...I was pretty happy after seeing her awake, though she still have a bitter face but she was no longer sad.
"Our new Home."
