002 Sister's Marriage
Failure broke his illusion.
He was in no mood to care about other people's test results, nor did he wait. He just lowered his head silently and walked lonely in the direction of his family.
"Isn't this Dill? Looking at his appearance, he must have failed the test. Just look at it and tell me, how could a person with a congenital physical disability pass the test? Otherwise, it would be so embarrassing for ordinary people like us."
"Yes, it's a pity for him, but his lovely sister is in quite a bad situation. The Bahrain family is just waiting to see the good show."
"It's so tragic? What's so tragic? It's obviously her honor that the person with the bad luck is noticed by the genius of the Bahrain family."
"Haha, that's right. That guy is indeed a genius. Although he doesn't look very good, he will definitely be prosperous and wealthy in the future. If I were a woman, I would be willing to marry him."
"..."
Dill walked, silently listening to the comments of passers-by. He always lowered his head, but his face became more and more gloomy. He clenched his fists and the pace under his feet also accelerated.
If there is anything more painful in Dill's heart than his failure in the test, it is about his sister Brooklyn's marriage.
Dill's mother contracted a strange disease and died after giving birth to Brooklyn. Therefore, Brooklyn was neglected by her father and other relatives in the family since she was a child. She was even called a symbol of misfortune by other people in the clan. She had no playmates since she was a child. And Dill, as a
Patients with congenital heart disease who gave up practicing cultivation since childhood were also ridiculed and discriminated against.
Being connected by the same fate and having the same blood bond made Dil particularly fond of his biological sister. The brother and sister also grew up relying on each other for their destiny.
Being unnoticed and unappreciated is quite ordinary. My sister could have continued to grow up peacefully, but unfortunately she was spotted by Leopold, a talented young man from the Bahrain family, and he came here a month ago.
People came to their house to propose marriage.
The Bahrain family and the Euchigas family are the two strongest families in Beast Mountain Town. In order to avoid the vicious competition between the two powerful families, they often form marriages.
Leopold, a talented boy from the Bahrain family, is the same age as Dill. His strength has already reached the second level of warrior level. He was admitted in advance to Shadow Moon Academy, one of the top ten academies in the empire, and his future is bright.
Leopold's proposal to Brooklyn does not mean that he really likes her. He once had a childhood sweetheart who grew up with her. Later, the girl was killed by a monster while going out. Leopold was in pain and set his sights on her.
He wanted to replace Brooklynn, who looked similar, so he proposed this marriage proposal.
The girl who is called a symbol of misfortune by her family can marry a genius like the Bahrain family. Of course, the Euchigas family is quite willing. However, Brooklin, as the person involved, does not agree. She does not want to be regarded as a substitute for others. She hopes to have someone else.
The right to choose for yourself.
But in such an environment, no matter how much she disagrees, her protest is ineffective.
As the elder brother, Dill saw this in his eyes. He believed that as long as he could pass the test and be admitted to the Demonic Source Academy, he would have a certain right to speak. When the time comes, he would use himself as a threat to intercede with his sister.
And his idea ended with the failure of the test.
Walking quickly into the house, a girl was lying on the cold table, her arms resting on her forehead, sobbing softly.
The girl is about the same age as Dill, with clear purple eyes and long eyelashes that tremble slightly. Her plain white skin is as clear as snow under the sunlight outside, and her pink face is as cute as a doll.
She is Dill's biological sister, Brooklynn Euchigas.
Seeing his lovely sister and thinking about what they might face in the future, Dill's heart skipped a beat.
"Second brother, you're back, how was the test?" Brooklynn heard the sound and ran towards Dill in a lively manner.
"I'm sorry, sister, but my brother has let you down." Dill carefully hugged Brooklynn.
"Didn't a genius like my brother succeed?" Brooklyn was stunned, her watery eyes blinked, and a crystal tear slid down her fair skin.
"I'm sorry." Dill shook his head bitterly. His heart was in a mess. He didn't know how to comfort his sister, let alone how to face it in the future.
Brooklynn didn't speak any more, her shoulders kept shaking and she kept sobbing softly. Dill didn't know how to comfort her, so he just hugged her tighter.
"You still can't accept Leopold?" Dill asked softly.
"I don't want to be someone else's substitute, and I don't want to be with him." Brooklynn yelled, her hoarse voice completely different from the previous gentleness.
Tears welled up in her eyes.
"I'm sorry." Dill gently wiped the tears on his sister's cheeks with his sleeve, but there were already layers of excitement in his heart.
Brooklynn was not yet twelve years old, and she had suffered enough injustices over the years, and he did not want her to suffer further injustices.
"Second brother, I also want to be able to leave the family and pursue what I love like my eldest brother." Brooklin's voice softened and she moaned in pain.
Dill was stunned for a moment, thinking of the novel items that his elder brother brought to them every time he came back from the city. Listening to his description of the big city, why didn't he want to witness it with his own eyes?
"How do you want to leave here?" Dill said with a wry smile.
"I want to take the magic test. These days, I feel another kind of power in my body, which should be magic! I think I have the talent to become a magic warrior." Brooklin said immediately.
"Magic warrior?" Dill was shocked.
Magical power is the energy cultivated by demonic warriors. Demonic warriors are a noble group of people on the mainland. They need to have a very strong elemental affinity to the five elements of heaven and earth or the elements of light and darkness. It takes almost thousands of people to have a single demonic warrior.
Not to mention their Yuchigas clan, even the entire Beast Mountain Town has not produced a single magic warrior in the past ten years. Becoming a magic warrior not only relies on talent, but also requires training in the later stages. Just awakening the magic attribute is enough.
It requires a considerable expense, which is not something ordinary families can afford.
Of course, it would be another matter if you could be admitted to the top ten colleges in the empire and receive funding from the college or even the country.
"Second brother, look!" Brooklin said, stretching out her slender hands, a light blue ball the size of a fingernail was formed out of thin air. The ball was filled with sparkling water, growing bigger and bigger.
Eventually it condenses into about the size of a palm.
"It's really magic, water element! How did you do it?" Dill said excitedly.
You know, it is difficult for a magic warrior to use magic power without awakening it, but his sister actually did it.
Although he has never seen what a real magic warrior is like, or what an outstanding magic warrior admitted to the top ten colleges is like, but to be able to do this, he believes that Brooklin's magic talent will not be bad.
"No one taught me, I just figured it out by myself."
"You will definitely be a magic warrior genius. Leopold is not worthy of you at all! Have you told your father about this?" Dill said immediately.
"I told you, but it's useless. Grandpa has already decided that for the sake of the relationship between the two families, this marriage will not change." Brooklin shook her head bitterly.
