I looked at the 100% score as the window faded away and sighed out as it was a lot harder than it looked and just handed the butcher knife back to Rose that smiled wide eyed at me. 'that is one awesome skill you have little sister… thank you for your hard work.' I said smiling happy to her glancing shy down at the parts smiling happy as her cheeks were a little blushed so I just patted her head a little wondering if I could convince mom to adopt her.
'h-how did you do that?' Iris asked shocked to me as Mia just looked silently stunned so I just pointed at Rose. 'I connected to her soul but there is one think I am curious about…' I said calmly but looked over at Rose glancing shy at me. 'what is that thing your sleeping in?' I asked straight out to Rose that looked confused at me. 'y-you live streaming?' I heard Mia whisper over to Iris. 'Mhm…' Irish replied whispering back. 'shut it off…' Mia whispered quietly to her.
'are you talking about the capsule?' Rose asked smiling awkward at me. 'capsule… what is that?' I asked smiling calmly to her. 'it is a game we use to get to this world but I can only have it one night a week since the other orphanage gets a night each on our block.' Rose said glancing worried to me. 'shut it off shut it off…' I heard Mia whispered quietly to Iris so I just turned and looked at Mia leaned towards Iris that was waving her hand in front of her. 'you live close to her so can you not get Rose a capsule she can use?' I asked calmly to Mia and Iris that froze on the spot and glanced worried at me.
'w-wait one second Aleph… s-sorry but I have to end the stream right now as um… I don't want my address leaked on the internet. Bye…' Iris said smiling awkward behind her and she tapped something in front of her but glanced at Mia. 'its off…' Iris whispered quietly to her and glanced awkward at me. 'stream? Is that the window you have up?' I asked over to Rose that blushed as she glanced guilty down at the ground nodding her head a little. 't-turn it off Rose or people might find out where you live… bad people.' Mia stated firmly to her and I saw she fiddled with her hand just like Iris did and tapped the air in front of her. 'i-it is off…' Rose said shy over to Mia and I could sense she was telling the truth.
'c-can you check Aleph?' Mia asked a little worried to me so I just held my hand to Rose and she held my hand glancing worried at me. 'the window stopped showing our movements…' I said calmly as I glanced at Mia as Rose did not swipe away the air like Iris did. 'Rose…' Mia said sighing to her so out of curiosity I used my dragon sense as in all logic I should be able to sense all magic as a dragon and the menu should be created my magic as I focused my mind and looked over in front of Rose and saw a transparent window of her menu showed up so I just smiled a little as I saw Rose wiped away her window.
'what is that?' I asked as I leaned over pointing at her minibar hovering in front of where she looked. 'o-oh that is the hotbar or quick access bar as the tutorial said.' Rose said calmly as she glanced shy at me but I saw she opened her status window. 'this is the status window showing my stats…' Rose said glancing worried at me and I saw she had a open inventory that was empty so I just picked up a pelt and placed it and it got sucked inside and I heard Rose giggled. 't-that tickles…' Rose said quietly as she glanced shy at me. 'you got soul storage?' I asked chucking to Rose.
'w-what… d-did she take anything?' Mia asked worried making Rose glance sad at her. 'it is easy to gain a dragons trust but once lost it is extremely hard to get back…' I said plainly to her. 'you hear that Rose… don't steal.' Mia said smiling sad at her. 'I was talking to you Mia…' I said plainly as I looked at her looking worried at me. 'I trust Rose to understand we are looking out for her best interest so there is no need for us to start accusing each other as distrust is a foul thing.' I said calmly to Mia smiling a little sad.
'sorry Rose… I took out my insecurity out on you and I apologizes for that. forgive me?' Mia asked smiling sad at Rose. 'it's okey… I am used to people not trusting me but um… now big brother can look true my inventory and…' Rose said quietly to her but I held up my hand gently shaking my head. 'no. I put my trust in each of you and I expect you to do the same so I will not be inspecting anyone's soul storage as it is a personal storage. I am not going to be used to ease your own doubts about each other like some prison guard as we are a team and we work together so if anyone wants something then just ask as communicating and talking to each other is the best way…' I said calmly to them and saw they lowered their heads glancing at me with a little smile as they stayed quiet.
'how about we help Rose pack down as she skins them then set up camp somewhere and make some food… objections?' I suggested calmly to them and they nodded happy to me and we got to work carrying everything Rose skinned to her backpack and after a little bit of hard work I carried Rose and her backpack in my arms as we found a peaceful area close to the river and started to set up camp. After setting up the almost automatic dimensional tent mom picked out for me I glanced over at Iris and Rose putting up their tents but Rose was making a fireplace.
'your not putting up a tent Rose?' I asked calmly to her and saw she lowered her head a little as she shook her head. 'I c-cannot afford one…' Rose said quietly as she glanced embarrassed at me. 'then you sleep in my tent little sister.' I said smiling calmly to her and she stood up looking stunned at me. 'r-really?' Rose asked quietly. 'yes. mom got me a big tent so there should be room. want to see?' I said smiling calmly to her as I held the door open and she walked over a little happy and went inside so I just followed after her and looked at the common area that had a bench with a stove and I looked at the five tent door so I opened one in the middle and saw there was a private bedroom with a bed. 'this one is mine so you pick…' I said smiling back but saw Mia and Iris walked inside pouting a little.
'you think we let Rose be alone with you… hmf.' Iris said pouting cute as she glanced shy at me. 'yee… we have to keep an eye on her… for her safety.' Mia replied pouting cute as she crossed her arms. 'big brother will not hurt me as he could have done that anytime he wanted…' Rose said quietly as she looked worried at Iris and Mia glancing a little awkward at her. 'don't mind them little sister as they just want to sleep in the same tent… pick a room and just be honest next time.' I said casually to them and just walked inside my room and put my backpack down next to the bed and laid down with a sigh.
I closed my eyes meditating and found the amount of mana higher than outside the dungeon but felt a little tug at my shirt so I open my eyes and saw Rose standing next to my bed. 'I know your secret…' Rose whispered quietly as she glanced shy at me so I looked a little puzzled at her. 'you have a player window too…' Rose whispered quietly as she sat down at the edge of the bed sighing a little nervously. 'what do you want?' I asked quietly to her but she shook her head to me. 'nyothing… I just wanted to ask if big brother is an orphan too since he keep calling me little sister?' Rose asked whispering quietly to me and I chuckled silently to her as I gave a slight nod.
Rose climbed up in the bed and laid down next to me. 'so what is your plan… stream to make people think you portal from another world to get viewers and make money?' Rose asked whispering to me and I glanced a little stunned over to her. 'that is not a bad idea but it attract to much bad attention…' I said quietly to her. 'what if little sister leak a video of you in the real world… we can keep them guessing and build a hype so you generate more money when we stream…' Rose said quietly as she glanced nervously so I sighed quietly to her. 'actually… I was going to ask mom if she could adopt you but now I meet my teachers in-game.' I whispered quietly to her and saw she looked silently stunned at me.
'y-you do that for little sister even if I took your room…' Rose asked whispering as her eyes teared up looking sad at me and the memory of me walking past a little girl looking sad at me in the orphanage surfaced so I just put my arm around her and heard her quietly sniffle. 'that place didn't have a capsule?' I asked whispering to her. 'they bought one after my allowance got reduced.' Rose said quietly and I frowned looking up at the ceiling.
'how good are your acting?' I asked whispering to her and saw she wiped away her tears smiling happy to me. 'I am good big brother…' Rose said quietly seeming happy but I could sense she was worried and sad so I chuckled a little as I petted her head. 'okey, okey… I hold out a little longer even if I wanted to come clean to mom so let me figure out a plan…' I whispered quietly to her and she gave a simple nod as she crawled up on my shoulder. 'where do you live?' Rose asked whispering to me. 'campus apartment B6…' I whispered quietly to her.
'okey… can I stream now?' Rose asked whispering to me so I just gave a silent nod to her as I was plotting a plan in my head and just closed my eyes. 'how are you going to get to my world big brother?' I heard Rose asked acting curious. 'easy… I follow the soul link using mana.' I said quietly to her. 'oh… I don't get it but I prepared a place for you but make sure you keep it a secret and not tell me about that place… how long until you learn the magic?' I heard Rose ask so I just glanced amused at her laying on my shoulder acting like nothing.
'don't know how much I have left as it have taken a good while but the dungeon is actually the key…' I said chuckling to her and saw she turned and looked puzzled at me. 'how come?' Rose asked curious. 'because it is closer to your world then outside and there is actually enough mana here to sustain the transfer…' I said casually and acted like I was thinking about it but sensed Mia and Iris listening at the door. 'can you try now big brother… I got everything set up.' Rose said quietly to me. 'it isn't simple thing to do little sister…' I said quietly to her but saw she pouted a little as she sat up next to me.
'I know… I spent days drawing the magic array and I was almost done when that lady came and took you away to Haven Kingdom and I had no choice but go there before you but meet this awful guy… I figured you take care of him…' Rose said quietly pouting at me like she was in a movie and I could not help but chuckle a little. 'you really expect me to commit murder out in in the open like that… what happened to keeping a low profile?' I asked quietly as I leaned back closing my eyes. 'fine… could not be helped especially with that Dark Legion guy lurking around me so thanks for that…' I heard Rose said quietly as she laid her head on my chest.
'I finished the array so can you try and connect to it you lazy dragon?' I heard Rose say quietly poutingly poking my cheek so I sighed lightly. 'fine, fine… one Calamity Dragon transfer array, Huff…' I said quietly chuckling amused but felt Rose slapped my chest so I glanced a little awkward at her. 'I know I told you about the cartoons but you don't have to cast spells calling them out… it is embarrassing.' Rose said actually blushing a little in her cheeks so I just smiled amused at her and saw Mia and Iris slightly peeking inside but acted like I didn't see them. 'I think it sounds cool but okey. trying to get the magic crystal and connect to the Calamity Dragon array…' I said quietly as I petted her head before I closed my eyes.
I started meditating as I figured it had to give at least some effect and I felt the mana in the air rushed towards me and since it was just a boring waiting game I used my dragon sense to "see" what Rose was up to and sensed she was just waiting there but I sensed something within myself and took a closer look at it but it just looked like a ball of energy different from mana but close to what a game soul felt like.
I sensed my own body behind that weird ball of energy and I was a little stunned as I could actually sense the capsule I was inside. "w-wait… is all the random nonsense I been saying true? Is this actually a different world?" I thought but felt the surge of mana flow out so I shifted my senses over to the mana concentration I was supposed to keep an eye on and saw it started to condense from a gas form into a liquid form but when it pulsed out it vanished as more mana started concentrate making a new liquid mana core and pulsed out again so I open my eyes to stop the meditating process and sensed a surge transparent mental energy surged out making Rose slide back a little with her hair flustering like she was standing outside in the wind as she looked shocked at me.
[System: Warning! Irregularities detected. Emergency Capsule Shutdown. . .]
[System: World Irregularities Detected. Emergency Shutdown commencing]
the messages faded away as Rose smiled happy at me. 'see you on the other side big brother…' Rose said smiling proud at me but I glanced over at Rose and Mia that stood at the door looking stunned at us and Rose glanced back at them but hurried and looked worried at me 'Go!' Rose called out stretching her hand out but her shout got silenced as the view turned black. [Exiting]
I open my eyes feeling nauseous so I tried pressing the button to open the capsule but it looked like the power was out as I was no light so I just pulled the manual door handle and opened the capsule door and got up sighing as I rubbed my hand on the side of my forehead. 'w-what the…' I mumbled quietly as I looked down at my hand but saw it was a paw. I wobbled over to the bathroom but it was to dark to see so I just walked over to the front door and peeked outside to see if I anyone was outside but didn't see anyone so I quietly walked outside but the moon have gone down.
'the admission paper…' I mumbled and started running towards the school but stopped as I heard footsteps running towards my direction so I ducked down looking towards the sound. 'eh… R-Rose?' I asked puzzled as I saw Rose came running down the road out of breath but saw she slowed down looking stunned scared at me but her face relaxed after squinting her eyes. 'b-big brother?' Rose asked quietly. 'yes… what are you…' I asked but saw she pointed at her worn out phone smiling a little awkward as she walked slowly up to me.
'I could not help but to see if we succeeded… where are you going?' Rose asked smiling awkward at me but reached out poking my cheek a little. 'I got to see if the admission paper are in the correct box…' I said sighing to her and she nodded as she walked up to my side. 'c-can I? I am out of breath…' Rose asked as I glanced back at my that was full of dragon scales and I looked a little stunned down at my dragon paws but glanced over at Rose smiling happy at me. 'fine… but call me brother or big brother so nobody hear my name.' I said as I bent down and let her climb on my back.
'okey… ready.' Rose said giggling so I started running towards the school and we got there in no time so and I walked up to the postbox slot at the door. 'r-riding a dragon is not the most comfortable…' Rose said sighing as she laid her head down at my shoulder as I peeked inside the door but I could not get an angle on it. 'here lean down a little…' Rose said quietly holding out her phone so I leaned down and she stuck half the phone inside. 'eh… there only one letter inside with red stamp on it.' Rose said leaning closer to the phone. 'is it a wax seal?' I asked glancing at her but she just clicked on the phone and held it to me and I saw it was the back of my letter and sighed relieved.
'what is a wax seal?' Rose asked smiling awkward at me as I started to walk calmly back. 'one use wax to seal the letter so the one receiving it knows it is unread and…' I said quietly but glanced towards a light.
