Chapter 6 - Ch.9 Home

As for the uses of this point, well, they can be used to buy treasures of heaven and earth. Though it is not recommended to buy such types of treasure.

After all, Human civilization is one of the dominant civilizations in the universe; they have plenty of such treasures, but they lack the points given by the supreme will.

The main use of the points is to buy travel tickets, which allows all Path Creators to travel to various Myriad worlds. The Supreme Will will give three free opportunities, and after that, the Path Creators will have to depend on themselves.

The first ticket will cost 100 points, and the price will increase by 10 times for the second ticket and so on. Thus, for a path creator, the points are of the greatest value; the fact that the point can't be traded also backs up this point.

"Well, see you tomorrow."

Nexus said to Ronan as he picked up his bag, all the students had mostly woken up, and most were already starting to leave the class. As for teachers' permission or whatnot, well, it is stated by law that no teacher or other person is allowed to talk to the students.

"Hmm."

Ronan said as he also picked up his bag, there was no point in staying in class any longer. As for those who haven't woken up, if they still remain in a dazed condition for two more hours, the school will call the specialized personnel.

Walking out of the school, he entered the automatic taxi that was prepared for him; this privilege would only last for a day.

"To the downtown mall."

Nexus said as he sat leisurely on the soft seat, This kind of thing is not something someone of his rank normally enjoys.

Entering the mall, he bought all the necessary items and food supplies that should last for a week. Today he bought things of the highest quality.

After all, today was a day of celebration, even if one doesn't become a Path Creator, just becoming a Pathstrider is more than enough for normal people like them.

With all things ready, he got in the taxi and put in the coordinates of his house. Closing his eyes, he started to rest for a moment.

The taxi stopped in a middle-class living area, and a cozy two-story house could be seen. The house was teeming with life, with flowers planted in the backyard and grass on the lawn properly mowed.

Nexus walked outside the taxi and looked at the house with a nostalgic look. After all, it's been four hundred years. Putting the bag containing vegetables and other items on the ground, he took out a key and opened the door.

Entering the house, he locked behind him as what greeted him was a silent house, sensing the deafening silence, a look of worry appeared on his face.

Tap! Tap!

Just as he was about to rush inside, the sound of footsteps was heard. He released a sigh of relief as he looked toward the source of the sound.

"Welcome home, Brother."

A sweet voice containing a hint of childishness spoke as a figure walked out. She was a young girl, perhaps 15 or 16. Her hair color was a mixture of black and white, and her blue eyes shone with liveliness.

Her body was rosy, showing that she grew up in a decent household; at least she never faced the problem of sleeping hungry.

She walked with a quick pace as she looked at her brother with a smile on her face. It can be seen that she was truly happy to see her brother.

"Alina, don't rush."

Nexus said with a worried voice as he saw his sister rushing to give him a hug. Helpless, he could only step forward to make sure she didn't get herself hurt

"Brother, don't worry, Nothing wi.."

Just as she was about to give a cheerful reply to her worried brother, her body stopped, her bright eyes dimmed, and she appeared lifeless. The hand she had raised fell down as she started to fall down due to the momentum of her movement.

"ALINA!!!"

Nexus shouted as he rushed forward, holding the body of his fallen sister. He gently held her as he allowed her lifeless body to lean on him. Feeling her still flowing breath, he relaxed a little as he gently caressed the silky hair of his little sister.

Looking at her lifeless eyes, he couldn't help but clench his fist; even with his current knowledge, he was powerless to do anything about it. Time started to tick by, and he stood still holding his sister. Every moment felt like an eternity as he never took his eyes off his sister.

"Brother, sorry to worry you again."

A low voice filled with sadness sounded as Alina hugged her brother tightly; hearing her voice, his body relaxed.

"Silly sister, as your brother, if I don't worry about you, who will?"

Nexus said, trying to appear cheerful, but the powerlessness in his voice couldn't be hidden. It was the powerlessness of not being able to help the ones he loved. Well, now that he has become a Path Creator it the situation will surely change. Hearing her brother's words, she felt sad inside but didn't let it show on her face.

She has to be brave so as not to worry her brother, who had already given her so much. She couldn't allow her emotions to increase his worry.

"Hmm, Brother is the best."

She gave a cheerful reply as the body couldn't help but smile. He bent down a little and picked up his sister like a princess. Talking measured steps, he walked toward the kitchen and gently allowed her to rest on the soft chair.

Looking at the stemming food, he couldn't help but release a helpless sigh. He looked at the two robots to the side and sent them away to pick up the items he bought.

"You don't have to cook, you know. It can be dangerous; you should leave it to the robots."

He said with a worried voice as he said the same words he had said a thousand times, the reply given to him was also the same.

"I don't want my brother to eat that lifeless food after a hard day. At least, I want my brother to eat food filled with love."

Alina replied with a smile as she rested her head on the table. The body didn't say anything else, as he knew he couldn't convince his sister. If it were anything else, she would have listened to his words, but she is quite stubborn on this aspect.

"Haa, please take care of your safety."

Nexus could only say such words as he started to put the food on the table, making sure nothing was missing, he sat next to his sister and picked up a spoon and fork.

"Here, eat up."

He said with a smile as he started to feed her, and Alina followed his words as she opened her mouth, allowing her brother to feed her. She chewed her food slowly as she also picked up the food to feed her brother.

"Don't move too much."

The boy said, but he still slowed her to feed him once, after which she remained there without moving as they enjoyed this tranquil time.

After eating the food, the boy commanded the robots to do the dishes as he picked up his sister and let her sit on the couch in the living room. He went to the bedroom and started to change into normal clothes.

Walking down the stairs, he entered the living room, and Alina was watching the show on the television without making unnecessary movements.

He walked toward her and sat next to her, feeling his presence. She allowed her body to rest on his as she turned her attention toward him.

"Did everything go well today?"

Alina asked as she made herself comfortable in her brother's embrace. Although the path creator's test was of utmost importance, her words didn't carry worry, not because she didn't care, but because she had complete trust in her brother.

"Yes, after all, I am your brother."

"I know, I trus."

Before she could complete her words, she froze once again. Her body appeared lifeless as the boy once again felt helpless.

"I am not as good as you think my sister."

He spoke, his tone carrying deep sorrow as he looked at his sister. He really is a failure of a brother, although people call him a genius and so on, he has always felt that he was a failure.

He had tried to use his talent to see if he could find the problem faced by his sister, but the talent didn't react. It means that the situation faced by her is bigger than he had thought.

"I.."

"It's ok."

The boy said, seeing that his sister had recovered. He wouldn't allow her to fault herself. Alina, hearing her brother's words, didn't say anything, but her hug tightened.

Both of them stayed silent, enjoying one another's company; the only sound heard was their breathing and the television.
