Chapter 401 - Chapter 401: Penacony (Eighty)

[Wanting to produce interference of this degree, either it comes from a powerful external interference, or a traitor has appeared among the branch families of Penacony, and it is highly likely to be one of the Four Great Family Heads.]

[Although Robin unconditionally believed that her own brother was not a traitor, she still advised him to heighten his vigilance during this period, fearing that the other party's intention was to hinder the progress of the Charmony Festival, or even to use the festival to do something. Additionally, she had also begun to investigate the matter of the Memory Zone Meme [Death], and had preliminary clues, preparing to verify them.]

[Finally, there were some warm greetings and care from his younger sister, and from the words, one could fully see the deep affection between the brother and sister.]

[Acheron shook her head: "Miss Robin believes this is because [Harmony] has been subjected to some kind of interference. But as far as I know, beings capable of interfering with the power of a Path are extremely few."]

["Miss Acheron's meaning is..."]

["If there really is a traitor within the Family… that person must hold a high position, or possess unfathomable strength."]

Mob Psycho 100.

"Hey hey… the Family wouldn't really be hiding an Emanator, right?"

Dimple suddenly felt something was wrong. Could another battle of the level like when Jing Yuan fought Phantylia last time happen again? His small body couldn't withstand that kind of torment!

The most critical thing was that the power of the Path could actually affect him through the Celestial Screen. What if the Emanators waved their hands and directly [Harmonized] all of humanity on Earth? That kind of thing, no way! There was no Ambrosial Arbor's dissipating [Abundance] power here to heal and save people!

"The Family can be considered the representative of [Harmony], right? If the Family didn't have an Emanator hidden, I would find it strange instead." Reigen had an indifferent expression. If one day the aftershocks of an Emanator battle affected over here, the only ones who could resist would be the extras; if even the extras couldn't stop it, then there was no point in him resisting.

"The key to the problem is, what the Family is hiding… might not be an Emanator of [Harmony]. Only interference from Emanators of other Paths can match Miss Acheron's statement."

"Not Harmony, then who else?"

"Who knows?" Reigen spread his hands, "Supporting an Emanator of another Path, then going to war with Acheron and the Company, letting them fight until both sides are wounded, then reaping the benefits of the fisherman—what's this called? …This is driving the tiger to swallow the wolf!"

Dimple sighed deeply: "Reigen, have you been playing too many video games lately? How could an Emanator easily hide in the territory of [Harmony]? And… what does that Emanator want? It couldn't be that the Family is giving a lot of money, right?"

[Besides this letter, Welt also found the previous list of [Death] victims. As expected, besides Firefly and Robin, there were still many people who had suffered the invasion of [Death].]

[Welt: "It seems the rumors circulating among the people are not wrong—[Death] is indeed randomly selecting victims. And from the content of Sunday's annotations… he is not unfamiliar with [Death]."]

[Acheron nodded: "He was only surprised at its reappearance."]

[Besides the letter, the two also discovered a unique Light Cone, on which were Sunday and Robin in their childhood.]

[The little boy stood below the stage, looking up, his eyes sparkling, his fair and tender cheeks flushed red from excitement.]

[On the stage, his younger sister was singing, she focused everything on her singing voice, her pure white skirt hem sweeping across the floor. Every time she finished singing a line, her older brother below the stage would clap even more vigorously, his small hands turning red from clapping but not stopping.]

["This Light Cone… has been strictly kept. He should care a lot about this memory."]

["In Robin's interviews, she once mentioned that even though she had stepped onto so many magnificent stages, the performance she cherished the most was still the concert she held together with her older brother when they were playing house as children."]

[Acheron curiously inquired: "I wonder how their relationship is now."]

[Welt sighed with emotion: "In the process of growing up, one will always gain many things, but will also lose many."]

["Yes, time will smooth everything out. The beautiful dreams of youth… will eventually wake up."]

My Little Sister Can't Be This Cute.

At dinner time, the living room of the Kosaka family was quieter than usual.

It wasn't just because the parents were working overtime and not home, leaving only Kyousuke and Kirino alone; more of the reason was perhaps because the Light Cone of the Robin siblings had just appeared on the Celestial Screen—the sincere feelings of this pair of siblings inside made this pair of siblings from the Kosaka family fall into silence.

(Sigh, why is the relationship between siblings in other families so good? Clearly, Kirino and I also had a pretty good relationship when we were little...)

Kyousuke poked at the rice in his bowl, and sighed deeply. Honestly, he didn't know what exactly had happened between him and Kirino; it seemed that simply as the two of them grew older, Kirino's attitude toward him gradually changed.

Seeing this pair of siblings on the Celestial Screen, to say he wasn't envious... Kyousuke was completely lying to himself. As for a little sister bringing alien local specialties for her older brother and then considerately urging him to rest and such...

(Sigh, science fiction films ah...)

His gaze unconsciously drifted toward Kirino across the dining table.

Just like Robin—when outside, Kirino was definitely a little sister who made one proud; not only was she all-rounded in grades, sports, socializing, etc., she also worked part-time as a model, and while ensuring excellent grades, she also had a stable and high-income job.

If she could in front of family—

"Hey, what are you doing?" Kirino suddenly looked up, her beautiful eyes shooting out a gaze of disgust and disdain, "Don't look at me with that disgusting expression."

"I didn't."

"You absolutely did! I saw it." Kirino crossed her arms, slightly raising her chin, her azure blue eyes glancing sideways at Kyousuke, "You bastard, just now you wouldn't have had thoughts like 'if only my little sister could also be like Robin, so considerate, gentle, and then respect her older brother' or something, right?"

"I swear I absolutely didn't." Kyousuke sighed, "You are you, why do you have to be like Robin? I won't demand that you be like her… because as an older brother, I also can't do it like Sunday."

"Really?" Kirino narrowed her eyes.

"Mm."

"You occasionally can also say a couple of pleasant things." Kirino stood up and put the plate into the sink; before returning to her own room on the second floor, she looked back at Kyousuke, "The game... tonight, don't forget."

——

[There was also a list of suspects in the room, fully fifty-two names; they came from different fields, and their identities were not the same. It was sufficient to see that Sunday had tried to find the traitor long ago.]

[But unfortunately, even so, Firefly and Robin still died. Acheron suspected that this traitor was the true culprit who killed them, and also the reason why Sunday investigated so relentlessly.]
