Chapter 850 Pitiful Cyrus (2)
In the letter were written,
'I can't speak because if I did, Eva might get disturbed. So, I've left everything in this letter. I've already told you about Cyrus, right?
'This is him, my life-bound pet, and his bloodline is as special as Eva. But he's more like a little brother to me and a family like you guys. He's just a child, both physically and mentally. But he can speak, not to mention he's very playful and hates to study…'
In that letter were written some details that Ace missed when he told Alina about Cyrus, for the details about how Eva has appointed Livia to look after Cyrus and his study. She deeply cared about him, and Cyrus also called her big sis and was very respectful towards her.
But for Alina, those words were clear provocation as her eyes instantly narrowed, especially when she read about 'respect' and 'big sis.' Furthermore, when she read about Cyrus's playful attitude and how he was hiding so he wouldn't have to study, she beamed.
"Is this little bird… I mean, Cyrus, really that amazing?" Lillian was shocked, on the other hand.
She clearly heard about Eva and her amazing bloodline from Alina. But she has yet to meet her. Furthermore, Eva could also cultivate in this place while both of them can't, which was a complete mystery to Lillian, and Alina always sulked whenever she asked about it. So, she stopped asking altogether and focused on study skills like Alina.
However, now reading Ace's letter, it was hard for her to believe that Ace had such an astonishing pet and that little thing was really on the same level as their devilish neighbor.
"Hmph, who do you think Ace is?" Alina scoffed disdainfully before she looked at Cyrus with shining eyes, "He told me he was sleeping in that she-devil's house before, so he couldn't meet me. But it seemed he was awake and taken by Ace and only now has returned."
At this moment, Cyrus's eyes quivered slightly because of the voices, and he opened them lazily as he muttered, "What? Is it time for a food journey?"
Alina and Lillian looked at each other with clear astonishment when they heard Cyrus's childish, sweet voice.
Alina couldn't help but smile gently as she bent on her knees and tried to pick up the little bird.
But instantly, the laziness in Cyrus's eyes vanished when he sensed an unfamiliar presence approaching and moved with a terrible speed, vanishing before Alina could even touch him.
Alina and Lillian were alarmed as even they couldn't catch a glimpse of Cyrus, and before they could search for him, his cold voice rang not far away from their position.
"Who are you!?" Cyrus stood in front of Eva's house as he looked at Alina and Lillian vigilantly.
But he didn't attack them since he knew he was still in his 'nest' and only his big brother could help someone enter there. Furthermore, he didn't detect any malicious intent from Alina or Lillian, and since they were not caged, they should be Ace's friends.
At this moment, Ace's amusing voice sounded in Cyrus's head, "Brat, that is also your big sis; her name is Alina. She's as important to me as your big sis Eva, so listen to her, or she's no less scary than Eva. Now, I'm off. I'll call you when the times you keep your big sis Alina company."
Cyrus's eyes shimmered with astonishment as he looked at Alina and couldn't help but think as realization dawned on him, 'As scary as big sis Eva? She's also pretty as her, so this means all the pretty women like Big Sis Eva are scary and important to Big Bro?'
If Ace knew Cyrus's thoughts, he would've definitely been sweating right now and quickly corrected him to get rid of future troubles. But alas, he can't…
On the other hand, Alina was unaware that Ace had already introduced her to Cyrus, smiled amiably, and said, "I'm Alina, and I'm your big brother's wife and big sis! This is Lillian, my maid and friend. I've heard so much about you from Ace."
Lillian was speechless when Alina proclaimed herself as Ace's wife, 'She really has become bold.'
Cyrus didn't find Alina scary at all, not like Eva, as she appeared very gentle, "I'm Cyrus, nice to meet you, big sis Alina."
"How cute! Let me hold you!" Alina was elated as she quickly approached Cyrus and picked him up. This time, Cyrus didn't resist and let her hold him in her soft hands.
Alina fondled Cyrus's soft feather with ecstasy as she liked the little guy instantly, and Cyrus also enjoyed her gentle touch.
Lillian also couldn't help but approach them with curiosity. She had never seen such an intelligent bird before, and since it belonged to Ace, he had to be extraordinary, just like this legendary living space.
"You said something about the food journey? What that's about?" Alina couldn't help but ask amusingly.
Cyrus's eyes shone with elation when his current favorite subject was mentioned, and he quickly answered frivolously, "Oh, big bro and I are on a journey where we found delicious food for me and burn whoever tries to stop us!"
Alina was startled as she found it quite interesting, "Can you tell your big sis more? I would love to hear it."
"Okay!" Cyrus quickly agreed, but suddenly, he showed a curious expression and asked, "Big Sis, you are Big Bro's wife like Big Sis Eva?"
Alina nodded with a hint of redness on her cheeks, "Yes."
"I see. So everyone as beautiful as you guys is Big Bro's wife?" Cyrus followed up with a hint of excitement as if he had finally figured it out.
However, he was startled when he saw Alina's benevolent smile suddenly stiffened, and a strange coldness crept into her warm eyes, making the little guy think he was seeing Eva's shadow in her.
Ace, who was observing with great relish, was also startled before he chuckled, 'Of all the things to say, you just had to say something like that? You're digging your own grave, brat, and I'm not going to save you!'
