Chapter 209
* * *
‘Ugh. I’m going crazy, stars…!’
Waaaah!
I couldn’t even make a sound and just sat on the bed banging my head repeatedly.
‘Why! Why did I have to go back to that time! Why!’
Moreover, what was attached as a “tip” had no advice whatsoever, just “Fighting” with an annoying winking emoticon that made me even more furious.
But I couldn’t grab Kim Ddongbyeol and throw it around like usual. No, I wanted to cut the star to pieces with scissors and hold a burning ceremony, but I absolutely couldn’t do that!
‘Me at that time…! I was in a state worse than dust…!’
It was exactly when a younger sibling was born between Mother and Stepfather!
So that’s when Older Sister, that is, Stepfather’s daughter, tormented me to death!
Older Sister was much older than me, and moreover, until Stepfather remarried, she had lived as the only daughter in the household doing whatever she wanted.
In short, a beloved baby tyrant?
But after Stepfather remarried Mother, and then I, also a daughter, came along, and on top of that an absolute being who absorbed all of Mother and Stepfather’s attention – the younger sibling – was born…
‘She would punch me whenever she saw me.’
The bullying was so severe that while the Older Brothers at least treated me like a ghost, if Older Sister even lightly brushed shoulders with me, she would immediately follow me outside the house, hit my shoulders repeatedly, laugh, and leave.
Thanks to that, there was never a day when bruises disappeared from my body.
‘That crazy person was also incredibly strong.’
Of course, part of it was that I was skinny from not eating well because the Older Brothers would steal all my food back then.
Anyway, at that time I was just a young student, and due to continuous violence, alienation, anger toward Mother, and depression, my personality was beyond terrible.
‘I understand that raising a newborn baby is difficult, but still.’
Even though I was supposedly her biological daughter with bruises on my body and unable to eat properly, she didn’t show even a bit of interest.
‘Honestly, if I had gone astray even a little, there would have been bloodshed between Older Sister and me…’
Perhaps after Mother and Stepfather passed away, when I screamed at the Older Brothers who tried to sell me off in an absurd marriage deal, “If you want to marry someone off so badly, why don’t you marry off Older Sister instead,” it was largely due to anger from childhood abuse.
‘Sigh.’
The pupils of the maids who helped me bathe today were shaking so much. Still, I had no particular excuse, so I just pretended not to know.
‘It doesn’t seem like my head is spinning as fast as when I was Tulia…’
Was my intelligence low during my Han Ina days too?
Older Sister always said that while tapping my forehead, but was it really true?
I finally couldn’t stand the frustration and jumped up.
Then I grabbed the bowl and tray containing food that I had brought earlier from the first floor dining room and walked out to the terrace.
I glanced at the summer annex, but all the lights on the second floor where Klaus was staying were completely turned off. My heart felt even more stuffy.
I put down the tray and placed the bowl on my folded knees while just swallowing my tears.
I really wanted to die.
“Hey, why are you eating alone?”
Just then.
The closed terrace door opened wide.
“Leon?”
“Yeah, it’s me.”
Leon Frazier, who suddenly appeared, looked down at me.
“Do you really have some problem? Why are you being so pathetic alone like this?”
The cursing was brief.
Leon Frazier plopped down next to me. As he stretched his long legs forward and closed his eyes, the night breeze gently blew his black hair.
“…”
I carefully held the bowl on my knees while secretly looking at Leon Frazier.
His eyelids were slightly swollen. Anyone could see they were the eyes of someone who had been crying.
“…Why did you come?”
Of course, my eyes were worse. I was also swollen like a pufferfish.
Leon Frazier glanced at me and said.
“No matter how much I think about it, I felt that as an older brother, I should guide my stupid younger sibling, so I have graced you with my presence.”
“…”
“Hey, look here. This is really strange. Normally you would get angry at being called a stupid younger sibling and grab me by the collar…”
Leon stared intently into my eyes.
“Why were you crying again?”
“…”
“Were you that sad about fighting with me earlier? Huh?”
“…”
“You’re acting strange today. Did you hurt your head?”
Leon Frazier was genuinely worried.
He opened my eyes with two fingers to examine them, and waved his hand in front of me asking several times if I could see this.
In short, he was treating me like a complete idiot.
“Hey. Tulia Frazier. It seems like something really happened to you. But even so, how can a person change so suddenly in such a short time?”
I felt a pang inside but couldn’t say anything.
“No, even just this evening. That food you ordered the kitchen to bring out for dinner, what was it called? Olive chicken? Kitchen?”
“Chicken fried in olive oil.”
“Right. That. You ordered the kitchen to make that dish because you wanted to eat it. But why did you think I wouldn’t eat it and would flip the table?”
“…”
“Did I look like someone who’s picky about food? I eat most things well, you know?”
“…At first, as soon as you sat at the table, you frowned. Asking what that was.”
“No. I asked because there was food I’d never seen before. And frowning is just my habit. A habit.”
“So when Adel explained it to you, you asked back ‘Why would you serve something like that?'”
“No! Ah! Yes, I did say that!”
Leon Frazier roughly ran his hands through his hair.
“I was flustered because it was borderlands food. You know too, right? What continental noble eats borderlands food?”
“I said I wanted to eat it…”
“That’s why I apologized!”
“…”
“Ah, she’s about to cry again. Why are you doing this, really. Are you sick somewhere? Are you really Tulia?”
‘I really want to cry.’
I felt like I was really going to go crazy.
Today Leon Frazier came back from the academy alone first. But the problem was that my taste had completely changed after returning as Han Ina.
I craved spicy food terribly, and above all, I really, really wanted to eat crispy chicken.
Of course, , being a Korean game, had created several Korean dishes with settings like “foreign food” or “borderlands food.”
So I ordered the head chef to make chicken fried in spicy seasoning sauce and olive oil, which could be prepared the fastest among them.
‘Adel, being from the borderlands, made it quickly too.’
I was going to eat it secretly by myself, but in , one of the ways Coriko won the family’s favor was by serving such unique foods.
After Coriko appeared in the quest, I became crazily conscious of her, so half wanting to raise affection levels a bit more, and half wanting to let Leon Frazier try the delicious food I wanted to eat, I had it served at the banquet table…
“What is this? What? Borderlands food? Why did you serve such a thing? You people, are you feeding Tulia this kind of stuff? Take it away right now. Disgusting…”
That was exactly how Leon reacted.
If it had been the usual Tulia, no, it didn’t even need to go as far as Tulia.
Even if it had been Han Ina after who had been through all sorts of hardships, I would have either interrupted him mid-sentence or told him to at least try it before speaking and shoved a chicken leg into Leon Frazier’s mouth.
Ridiculously, the ‘current Han Ina’ was hurt by those words.
‘It’s probably because I truly think of this guy as real family that it affects me more.’
When my stepfather, older sister, or older brother showed indifference or verbal abuse, I wasn’t deeply hurt.
But when Mother did that to me, I pretended to sleep and cried all night.
‘That’s right! So it’s Leon Frazier’s fault!’
In the end, that’s how the two of us got into a big argument.
‘Leon doesn’t have a good personality like Lisian. In short, he’s just like Tulia’s older brother…’
After a few misunderstandings went back and forth, we quickly got into a fight and shouted at each other.
“And you. Even if I misspoke, did you really have to hurt me that much on purpose? I was really hurt, you know?”
I knew all too well that Leon Frazier’s words weren’t an exaggeration.
[System] You have completed the quest !
Because that guide happened to pop up then, I had no choice but to say hurtful things rapidly.
‘Actually, the moment that system window appeared, tears suddenly burst out.’
Leon Frazier was so flustered he looked at me like I was insane.
I fiddled with the cooling chicken bowl and asked.
“Setting aside why I cried… why did you cry?”
“What? Did you just call me older brother? No, are you really sick somewhere…? Did you call the personal physician?”
“…”
“…Fine. Never mind, never mind. Phew. They say a younger sister’s heart is like a reed, and it’s really difficult.”
Leon Frazier spoke while stabbing the chicken with his fork and shoving it into his mouth.
“Hey, Tulia.”
“Mm-hmm.”
“It’s because it’s me that I argue with you and stuff, but honestly, if it were our older brother, he wouldn’t even argue with you, right?”
“Are you saying Lisian ignores me?”
Leon stopped chewing his chicken and turned to look at me with an incredulous expression.
“No, why is she suddenly being twisted again? That’s not what I meant. Whatever you do, our older brother has the personality to just smile at you. In short, the man has no backbone! That’s what I’m saying. A proper man should choose someone with backbone like me.”
“…”
‘Well, he’s not wrong.’
That’s why Lisian is actually the most difficult.
[System] Seriously Hurt Male Protagonist ‘Lisian’ (Incomplete)
What on earth should I say to seriously hurt Lisian…
‘I’m scared to death of how terrible the words this vicious system window will bring.’
“But, Leon.”
“What?”
“It’s spicy chicken, but do you really have to eat it like that?”
“I’m just eating it because it seems to suit my taste. I was also feeling a bit hungry.”
I looked at him with a heavy heart and added a word. With pure sincerity, without the system’s interference.
“Still, don’t eat while crying…”
