Volume 1 Chapter 19 Big Sisters Question and Answer Session

Too long to finish, and a super scary story if it was someone else telling him, Ouyang Tao might have taken it as a joke or a prank. However, if it was about the Spirit girl in the library, it would be difficult to judge.

Furthermore, when the bully group heard about the library punishment, the reaction of the Mechanical Engineering students also proved a point.

However, Ouyang Tao was really concerned and eventually his curiosity took over him. Wanting to hear the stories, he nodded: Then Just tell me a little bit.

Keke, youre actually willing to hear. Monicas expression suddenly relaxed looks like she was really joking just before.

Well, because Im concerned. How should I put it. That manager seems a bit Lonely, maybe even pitiful.

What you just said isnt wrong. Well, I guess telling you a bit is no harm. Monica said as she became serious: However, always remember, never ever tell anyone about it.

Oh

That girls name is Zhao Yuehan. Although shes definitely not older than your sister, because she skipped several grades, shes already in the same grade as me. Shes a graduate student from the Spirits department. Even though shes a cute young lady, we dont click.

Looks like Monica is selective in her targets, but thats not important. The main point is skipped several grades: Does that mean That her magics very powerful?

Not just that, this girls very special. Shes not a normal magician. You could even say shes not a normal human being. As Monica spoke, her hand stopped doing work and she lit up a cigarette.

In the end, Ouyang Tao was the only one washing the dishes.

Not a normal human being?

Yup, she was chosen by the grim reaper, and one of her special characteristics is her permanent Spiritual eye. Youve seen that before right?

Ive seen it before. So the girls spiritual eye was permanent, but its really creepy. But what the hecks a grim reaper? He sounds scary.

Everything I know are actually rumours. The others are all secret. But there are two points Im certain of. Firstly, the ghost are all very obedient towards her. Secondly, the school is very cautious towards her and her powers. The library was built just for her.

Thats right, Zhao Yuehan seemed to have said it before. She lived in the library. Although its nothing scary, Ouyang Tao felt that it wasnt normal: Oh? Why make the library for her?

Because such a thing like the power of the nether realm, to the living, is a taboo. But the grim reapers like an ambassador from the nether realm that we cant offend. The only choice was to

Lock her up?

Dont say it so crudely, lets just say that its good service and protection. Theres someone in the library that takes care of her grand, personal facilities and theres also someone in charge of her meals. Shes as comfortable as a princess.

But no matter what, anyone could understand that no matter how comfortable the life in the library was, Zhao Yuehan had lost something important her freedom.

Although Ouyang Tao seemed silly at times, he was quick about some stuff, especially things concerning Mechanical Engineering and its structures: Actually the library is a seal between the worlds and she is being imprisoned there right?

This brat Monica poked Ouyang Tao on the forehead why ask when you already know.

Using Mechanical Engineering structures and stabilising connections between worlds was also part of Ouyang Taos abilities. Its just that he didnt usually get the chance to use it. No wonder he felt that the library was weird from the start.

But

Ouyang Tao still had stuff he wanted to ask but Monica cut him off: Concerning the library, I didnt say anything and you didnt ask anything. You thought of everything by yourself. Understand?

Oh Seems like this topic is taboo as well, I cant find out anymore. At that point, the cutlery had already been stored away, but Ouyang Tao still had a question: Oh yeah, senior. My sisters situation today, didnt you find it weird?

How so?

Shes from Elements, why would she discuss elemental magic with someone from Mechanical Engineering?

Still worried about your sister. This brother Monica continued to answer him while smoking Its very normal. Most Mechanical Engineering Magicians know at least one other common form of magic. Furthermore, if its that guy, its not weird.

Putting it like that, could she

Senior, you know the guy being bullied?

Yup, number seven of the Archduke Ryan family.

Ah? A son from the Archduke Ryan family!? Ouyang Tao found it unbelievable.

Archduke Ryan, everyone knew that name. He was the ruler of the country. Being a member of the Archduke family and yet was being bullied in school Isnt that too cowardly.

Theres no choice, by nature he was not a Mechanical Engineering Magician. Hes extremely gifted in the Elements department, but due to the pride of the Archduke family and other complicated things, they forced him to study Mechanical Engineering, and the result is like that.

But he is still a son of the Archdukes family, it shouldnt be that bad right?

Look at him, do you think he can inherit his fathers seat? So everyone looks down on him. Being bullied is a common thing.

Hearing this, Ouyang Tao suddenly felt his treatment was not the worst in Mechanical Engineering department.

Furthermore, being forced to do something one is not good at, and not willing to do is a very painful thing.

Ouyang Tao still felt uncomfortable: But

Dont worry, someone like him wont be able to get your sister.

This, finally made Ouyang Tao relieved.

Ok, its almost 1, hurry up and go rest, I also After smoking, Monica ended the conversation and stretched lazily, preparing to go to bed. Just then, the armband on her uniform sounded: No way?!

After a few seconds, Chen Feng came downstairs fully dressed.

Obviously, there was an emergency: Seniors, what happened?

Nothing of your concern. Be obedient and go to sleep. Now is time for adults. Lets go Chen Feng. Monica immediately took off her pyjamas and wore her uniform (Big sis, even though I know youre very open-minded, you still shouldnt change in front of me). She then left with Chen Feng.

Ouyang Tao understood that it was best not to question things that didnt concern him. Hence, he went to his room to rest.

However, him not looking for trouble didnt mean that trouble wont look for him.

Even though he slept very late, he woke up at the same time the next morning.

Monica and Chen Feng still had not returned yet. This probably meant that something serious has happened. Ouyang Tao remembered Monicas reminder and did not think too much. Instead, he went to prepare breakfast for his sister.

Ah Xue, faster, youre gonna be late.

I know.

Breakfast was toast, scrambled eggs, bacon, and milk with an apple by the side. It was simple and nutritious. However, the siblings didnt have time to enjoy their meal

Ding Dong~ The doorbell rang. Ouyang Tao went to open the door, only to see a group of fully armed guards and two members from the disciplinary team standing outside the door looking very serious.

Is anything the matter?

An officer, with a Major rank, asked: May I inquire if youre the first year student from Mechanical Engineering department, Ouyang Tao?

The other party sounded polite, but still spoke in a serious tone. Yes Thats me.

Then, the other party did not reply immediately but instead, looked over Taos shoulder and into the room: This is?

Thats my sister Ouyang Xue, Elements department. He had a clear conscience but looking at the Majors posture, he felt that he didnt come with good intentions. It was too late yesterday, so I let her sleep over. Did I break any rules?

No, you misunderstood. There was an assault case yesterday and we just need your help in the investigation. Just follow us back to the security station. Dont worry, we just need your statement. It wouldnt affect your lessons too much.

Okay

Looks like something big did happened after all.
