Seeing “Call Unanswered” displayed on her phone screen, Yukina frowned slightly.
‘What on earth is my brother up to? I worked so hard to tie with the other side’s ace captain, preventing our Kendo Club from being defeated. Forget about not coming to praise me, she’s actually wandered off somewhere alone and won’t even answer her phone.’
‘My brother is really lacking in discipline; she’s going to get it when she comes back!’
[Where the hell are you now? Get back here immediately!]
Yukina quickly tapped on her phone screen, sending a text message to Charlotte’s phone.
The moment she hit send, Yukina noticed a line of small text below Charlotte’s avatar: “2 km away from you.”
Since Yukina’s and Charlotte’s phones had long been linked under a family plan, their locations were shared in real-time.
Discovering that Charlotte had run off to screw around two kilometers away, Yukina was instantly fuming.
“How can she just run off that far as soon as I let her go? Hmph, even if you run to the ends of the earth, I can easily drag you back! You can’t escape my grasp, brother!”
Yukina tapped on Charlotte’s avatar to see her exact location.
“Hmm? This is…” Seeing the little red dot representing Charlotte’s location inside an abandoned factory, Yukina was somewhat speechless.
“No, why would my brother go to such a godforsaken place? Is she tired of being a witch and decided to become a scrap-collecting old lady instead?”
Finding that Charlotte had gone to this strange place, Yukina didn’t pay too much attention to it initially. She put away her phone and walked out of the gymnasium with Zhong Shuixi and Huangquan Ai.
It was now lunch break, and the three of them naturally headed to the cafeteria to eat.
“By the way, what about Kanon-chan? Aren’t we waiting for her?” Huangquan Ai asked in confusion.
“No need to wait for her. Let her stay out there and rot for all I care.”
Despite her words, Yukina couldn’t help but pull out her phone and check Charlotte’s location again, hoping she had changed her mind and was returning. But Charlotte’s location remained unmoved.
“This brother of mine…”
Yukina, with a rage level of ten, put away her phone and channeled her anger into her appetite, devouring her food. This world-swallowing appetite immediately stunned Zhong Shuixi and Huangquan Ai.
“Yukina, are you… alright?”
Looking at Yukina’s wide-eyed, furious expression, it seemed she wanted to devour Charlotte bite by bite as well.
“I’m not angry because of her!”
Zhong Shuixi and Huangquan Ai couldn’t help but exchange a look. It was clear that Yukina was a textbook example of “saying no but meaning yes”; she was currently incredibly furious.
After finishing lunch, Yukina couldn’t help but check her phone again to confirm Charlotte’s location. Her position remained as motionless as a teammate in Sanguosha who does nothing while their allies are in trouble.
Moreover, the message she sent was still marked with the large characters “UNREAD.”
“Unmoved for so long, and hasn’t read a single message. Did my brother die there?”
From this moment on, Yukina’s tolerance for Charlotte reached its limit. She told Zhong Shuixi and Huangquan Ai to go back to class first, while she herself walked decisively out of the school and ran toward the abandoned factory where Charlotte was located. No matter what, she had to drag that playful Charlotte back.
Ten minutes later, a furious Yukina finally appeared at the main gate of the abandoned factory.
Perhaps out of habit, when Yukina came to her senses, she realized she was holding the wooden sword she used for kendo practice.
Yukina usually kept this wooden sword with her at all times, as if it were glued to her hand.
Although carrying a wooden sword was a bit abrupt, to get the naughty Charlotte back, the power of this wooden sword was necessary.
Reaching the entrance of the factory, Yukina checked her phone again to confirm Charlotte’s location. Sure enough, Charlotte’s position hadn’t changed; she was still motionless inside the abandoned factory.
“The game has gone on long enough; it’s time for it to end!”
With a murderous expression, Yukina walked toward the massive abandoned factory building in front of her.
As Yukina entered the factory, a sharp alarm sounded from Qin Shion’s computer on the other side.
“Hmm? What’s wrong?” Sakurako Aya, who was helpless against Charlotte who refused to leave their sofa, turned her head.
Stationed at the computer desk, Qin Shion skillfully tapped a few keys and brought up the surveillance feed of the factory’s perimeter.
On the camera feed, a girl with short silver hair, looking much like a master of origami, was walking into the factory carrying a wooden sword.
“Someone is invading our territory.”
Seeing Yukina’s figure, Sakurako Aya was briefly stunned.
“Eh? It’s her!”
“Hmm? You know her?”
“Do you remember that strange commission the boss received three days ago? The content was to use our powers to give this girl a lesson.”
“Oh, was it that commission? The boss gave it to you, and you came back looking like a total mess. So, this girl is actually stronger than you.”
“No, I haven’t fought her yet. At that time, I mistook this person for the target, and as a result, I got beaten so badly I almost didn’t make it back.”
“Hmm?” Hearing this, Qin Shion looked at Yukina’s high chest on the computer screen, then turned to look at Charlotte’s nearly non-existent chest. She couldn’t help but look confused. “How on earth did you get them mixed up? The difference is pretty huge!”
“Hey, let’s not bring that up. Even though that commission has expired, since she’s come knocking on our door, we can’t just back down! I’ll go meet her.”
“Hmm? You’re going again? You’re not going to come back looking like a mess again, are you?”
“How is that possible? Don’t look down on me! My Gravity Manipulation is a top-tier superpower. How could I be defeated that easily? This opponent can’t possibly be as twisted as this one, can she?”
“You never know. When someone’s luck is bad, even drinking cold water can get stuck in their teeth.”
“I don’t believe I’ll always be this unlucky. As for you, can you read all the information in this one’s head while I’m defeating the invader?”
