My sister is Luna

Chapter 3: Battle against bandits, 1 vs 5

"Boss, is that Miracle Fragment really here?" a thin, long-faced man asked the tall, strong, and burly man beside him.

The legend of the Sunset Sea is said to contain fragments of miracles, which possess great power, but are also burdened with the curse of the gods.

However, profit and greed will always drive people to pursue it.

"Hmph, that guy's information says the Miracle Fragment is in this village. Although that guy is unscrupulous, his information is absolutely reliable," the burly man said impatiently.

"Boss, there are only five of us. Shouldn't we bring more people?" the long-faced man asked again.

"Are you an idiot? We're here to steal, not to fight. Otherwise, why would we come back after they've all left?" The burly man smacked the long-faced man on the head, looking at him with obvious disappointment.

"Let's go in." The burly man waved his hand domineeringly and strode forward arrogantly, with the other four men imitating their leader.

Since there's nobody here anyway, it's okay to be a little arrogant.

The group of five searched along the way and soon arrived at the courtyard where Cain was.

"Hehe, all those people have indeed left. I was so smart to buy this information. Let's go search for things, and grab some valuables while we're at it," the burly man said with a smug smile.

“You thieves are really bold, stealing things right in front of the owner.” Cain walked out with a cold expression.

"There's someone else here?" The burly man was surprised, then breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Cain's childlike appearance: "Oh, it's just a child. It wasn't a wise choice for your family to leave you at home."

At the same time, he muttered to himself, "That guy! The message went wrong. I'll settle the score with him when I get back!"

"What are you looking for? Perhaps I can provide you with some clues," Cain said coldly, his hand gripping the hilt of his sword tightly.

The burly man paid no attention to Cain's actions. What trouble could a child possibly cause? He grinned uglyly and said, "You're quite sensible, kid. Very well, as long as you lead us to the fragment of the miracle, I might take pity on you and spare your life."

“Fragments of Miracles, what do you want with those things?” Cain asked expressionlessly.

A flame of greed ignited in the burly man's eyes, and he laughed heartily, lost in his own fantasies.

"There are plenty of things you can do with it. Powerful strength, a prestigious status—at the very least, you can sell it for a good price. I believe many people are interested in the fragments of miracles, especially those so-called demonic families. You don't even know the value of your family heirloom? It seems the education of these so-called demonic families isn't all that great, hahaha..."

“Little brat, why don’t you take us to find the fragments of the miracle? Maybe we can take you to a brothel, let you have some fun, and show you what true beauty is.” Infected by the burly man, the others also began to relax and become frivolous, speaking to Cain with a malicious and seductive tone.

"Hahaha, yeah, yeah, I can find you the prettiest girl."

They relish the thrill of leading children astray and into the abyss.

"Have you finished speaking? If you have, then take your last words to hell!"

After speaking, Cain stepped forward, instantly drew his sword, and with a flash of cold light, the sword light pierced into the bodies of the five bandits.

"You..." In the horrified eyes of the five bandits, blood gushed from their throats, and their bodies fell straight down, their eyes filled with disbelief at their deaths.

"..." Cain stood there in silence.

This was his first time killing someone, and the feeling was very subtle. He suddenly felt a strange restlessness and a desire to kill.

Not enough, not enough! Cut off the limbs, chop up the flesh!

Such thoughts kept popping into his mind, but he kept suppressing them. He was also puzzled: would he have such symptoms after killing someone for the first time? But the feeling came and went quickly, so Cain could only keep it in mind.

The bandits lay side by side, each with their eyes wide open. Five of them had deep wounds on their necks, from which blood was flowing.

Five bandits, underestimating Cain's childlike appearance, died at the hands of Cain's painstakingly practiced sword-drawing technique! This was the only powerful skill he had diligently practiced and mastered in two years, which he called the basic version of Extreme Blade Storm.

The reason Cain spoke to the bandits earlier was to conserve his strength so that he could unleash his strongest attack and kill them in one blow. Otherwise, he wouldn't have said a word to these guys and would have just attacked them directly. Nobody likes thieves, especially thieves who steal from their own homes!

Cain frowned as he recalled the burly man's words.

The allure of the Miracle Fragments is immense, but also dangerous. No, I should sneak a peek at the family's secret ancient texts when no one's around. I don't recall the game explaining in detail what the Miracle Fragments of the Armor family actually are. For my sister's sake and the future succession ceremony, I need to find out.

"Brother, you're so amazing! You took down those bad guys in no time! I want to be as strong as you!" Luna ran out of the room, her eyes filled with admiration for Cain.

After Cain left, she kept peeking from behind the door, watching Cain's heroic figure as he fought the villains one-on-one, and a seed of wanting to become stronger was planted in her heart.

"Okay, then Luna, can you protect your brother after you become stronger? Your brother will protect you too. We siblings will protect each other, okay?" Cain said with a smile, stroking Luna's little head.

"Okay, I promise I won't let anyone bully you, brother, once I get stronger!" Luna said confidently, leaning on Cain.

When Cain looked into Luna's innocent, adoring eyes and her lovely smile, his heart skipped a beat, and he felt his heart melt.

So cute!

That image is forever etched in his heart.

"Come on, Luna, come into the room and lie down. You're still not better." Cain led Luna into the room.

"Luna, listen carefully. We must not attend the inheritance ceremony 11 years from now, understand?" Cain looked into Luna's eyes and said seriously. The inheritance ceremony was dangerous, and he needed to take precautions in advance. He wanted to change his sister's fate! He didn't want to follow the heartbreaking destiny of their original siblings being separated. Now that he had transmigrated and had family, he would protect the beautiful life he had never had before!

“Participating in the inheritance ceremony is a great honor. You can gain immense power and even have the chance to become the clan leader, where everyone will listen to you. Why wouldn’t you participate?” Luna asked, puzzled. She didn’t crave power; as a child, she simply found it amazing and interesting. Why couldn’t she participate?

“Just listen to me, and I’ll buy you lollipops from now on,” Cain said. He didn’t want Luna to know about the cruel darkness of his family too early. For now, she just needed to remain innocent, cute, and clingy to her brother. Perhaps he would tell her the truth when she came of age, letting her choose for herself…

"Okay, brother!" Luna happily jumped onto the bed and said. Compared to the distant future, the actual lollipop was more to her liking.

"There's one more thing, Luna. When the people of your tribe return and ask who defeated the bandits, you absolutely mustn't say it was me." Cain needed to conceal his strength, as it was crucial to his role in the inheritance ceremony.

"Why, brother, you're so powerful, why can't others know?" Luna asked, tilting her head.

"Because your brother doesn't like to show off, you have to keep a low profile, you know? You absolutely mustn't tell anyone, or your brother won't like you anymore," Cain warned gently.

"Ah, okay, brother, I definitely won't tell!" Luna said hurriedly, then asked with a puzzled look, "What should I say if they ask?"

"Hmm... let me think... you can say that an incredibly handsome older brother descended from the sky and defeated them."

"..."
