Chapter 20: Chapter 20 (Battle between Siblings)
On Friday afternoon, I was sitting, resting, and preparing for what was about to happen. While observing the beautiful landscape and the sun setting behind the mountains, the sky was a clear orange, and the breeze was very refreshing against my face.
I smiled at the beautiful sunset, realizing that I used to only focus on training and never took the time to look around.
"Beautiful is this world, to be honest, but... hahaha, it's a pity that the most beautiful things are often the most dangerous."
With a big smile on my face, I decided to stand up, taking a deep breath as I walked towards where my sister was practicing.
Today was the day, the last day I would stay in this place, but first, I needed to resolve things with my sister. I couldn't leave without solving this problem, or it would be too late.
For almost these 5 months, I haven't stopped practicing, training, and enduring Miguel's sword. Today is the day when my efforts bear fruit.
My sister, being an intermediate gold rank with her awakened lineage, has an immense power gap, but it's not insurmountable.
"Status"
[Name: Anthony Von Valeriano]
[Age: 17 years]
[Species: Human (????????)]
[Rank: Silver-medium]
[Strength: D]
[Dexterity: D]
[Intelligence: D]
[Speed: D]
[Endurance: D]
[Potential: Unawakened]
[Bloodline: Dragon of ??????-Sealed]
[Appearance: Sealed]
[Physiology: Sealed]
[Legacy: Unknown]
[Skill: Sword (high), Magic (medium)]
[True Name: Unknown]
[Footwork: Swift Feet 3 stars]
I smiled to myself; my rank advanced to silver-medium, so my stats also upgraded to D.
Although my sister is one rank above me, it doesn't matter because my rank is silver, but my stats are on a gold level. I suppose it's due to my non-human species, which is also sealed.
Normal statistics should be: Bronze= F, Silver= E, Gold= D, Platinum= C, Emerald= B, Diamond= A, Sacred= S, Mythic= SS
The divine rank is just speculation from the game forum since no species has ever reached that rank. It's said to belong only to the gods...
I shake my head, clearing useless thoughts, and focus on what I was thinking before. Due to my gold-rank statistics, I have at least a small chance of defeating my sister.
Looking at her, she was deeply focused on her training, her figure remaining the same as ever.
Upon closer examination, I notice she's wearing a tight training outfit with her white hair tied up.
Sensing my presence, she turns her head in my direction.
Looking directly into her beautiful eyes, identical to mine. "Sister, I challenge you to a duel," I say.
She looked surprised, but soon a defiant spark lit up in her eyes. "A duel? What makes you think you can defeat me, Anthony?" she responds, with her usual expressionless face.
Perfect. Finally, she doesn't ignore me as she usually does. Despite appearances, my sister is very proud. I knew it; my sister loves to train. And by challenging her to a duel, I'm implying that I can beat her, which must be some kind of joke to her since she's one rank above me.
Keeping my smile, I reply.
"Come on, sister, are you afraid, or how about this: the loser fulfills any request from the winner? What do you think?"
"I think you've finally gone crazy; you do know I'm one rank above you, right?"
"But of course, I know it very well."
"Forget it, I won't fight someone weaker than me."
Just as she was about to turn around, I release my aura.
"Where are you going, sister? Don't you realize I'm in the same rank as you?"
It's a lie; due to my stats, I can give the appearance with my aura that I'm of gold rank.
Turning sharply, she looks at me in shock and murmurs: impossible.
"You're scared, sister."
Looking at my arrogant eyes and mocking smile, she frowns, annoyed, clicks her tongue, and stares at me.
"I accept; it's time to unload all my frustrations on you and wipe that annoying smile off your face."
Smiling to myself, I nod in agreement.
