Starting from a Magical Girl, Dominating Eternity

Chapter 608: Chapter 193: The Beginning of Southern China’s End

Listening to his younger sister’s uncertain remarks, Jiang Si shook his head, "With someone protecting you, you should work harder. Without a heart seeking the path, you’ll always be weak."

"Well, that’s what they say, but the environment really does have a big impact..."

After finishing his meal and cleaning the dishes, Jiang Si said, "If you want to go, then go. I’ll take care of the house."

"No."

Keke brought her bowl and chopsticks over and handed them to her brother, "You can’t stay home alone."

One cooks, the other washes dishes.

Jiang Si naturally didn’t mind, took her bowl and chopsticks and cleaned them quickly, "What now?"

"I don’t feel safe with you alone at home."

"...Do I really need you to worry about me?"

"No, I just can’t feel at ease."

Keke lowered her head, reached out, tugged at his shirt corner, and whispered:

"I’m afraid when I come back, I won’t be able to find you again."

Since she almost lost him after last time.

Keke always feels insecure.

She often wakes up from nightmares in the middle of the night.

The nightmare was probably based on a childhood incident when her brother went out training, and she insisted on going along.

In the end, Jiang Si couldn’t resist her and took her for a run, causing Keke to cry loudly from exhaustion.

Then her brother squatted on the roadside, comforting her, and gave her some money, telling her a shop nearby sold delicious ice cream and to buy some to eat together.

Happy with the money, Keke went to buy ice cream, but when she returned, her brother was gone.

She searched everywhere for him, with the rapidly melting ice cream, crying as she looked.

In reality, her brother had tricked her into buying ice cream, ran another round himself, and returned to find the tear-stained Keke and took her home.

It was only a few minutes, near home, and she wasn’t that young, with old neighbors watching her cry with gleeful amusement, ensuring she wouldn’t get lost.

But in the dream, Keke cried for a long time without her brother appearing, holding onto the ice cream she refused to eat, wanting to save it for Jiang Si, and kept searching with no success.

Returning home, there was no one there either, leaving her sitting alone at the door, holding the ice cream she wanted to save for her brother, crying heartbreakingly.

Then she’d wake up from the dream and run to her brother’s room, relieved only when she saw Jiang Si there.

Sometimes, not wanting to lay out a bed, she’d fall asleep right on her brother’s bed.

Keke was truly afraid she’d come home and not find Jiang Si.

Facing the fear and unease all alone.

"Brother, will you go with me?"

Shaking Jiang Si’s sleeve, Keke softly pleaded, "I’ll protect you well, there won’t be any danger..."

"I don’t want to go."

"Why are you like this..."

Keke looked crestfallen and sighed, "If you’re not going, I won’t go either!"

"No, you have to go." Jiang Si said sternly, "This concerns your Psychic Realm!"

"Anyway, eventually East China will offer a recommendation letter."

"Who knows when that will be? Learning... The Heart Image Domain should be pursued sooner rather than later."

"I’m not going if my brother doesn’t go!"

"Why won’t you listen!"

Jiang Si was about to reprimand her, but Keke grabbed his hand.

Keke’s small hands were cold and slightly trembling, her voice a bit unstable.

"Brother, I’m really scared, I don’t dare." Keke’s voice sounded like she was about to cry, "I’m afraid I’ll come back and it’ll be just me at home, unable to find you..."

Jiang Si, initially aggravated by her lack of maturity, fell silent for a while.

Cry genuinely...

She really hasn’t grown up, no different from her childhood.

By age eleven, the Desolate Emperor had already fought the Twin Stone Battle and Blood War Road, but how has Keke ended up as a Nascent Soul fool?

Rather than defeating the enemy, he had to accompany her in tutoring.

Keke, if you’re the underdog, draw from the courage and strength your Fire Merging gives you.

Speaking of which, can Mingyang’s transmutation cultivate the fire virtue?

Profound Mirror flips through repeatedly, only recalling its devouring nature...

Thinking about it, since Xilan was also to the south, getting the Witch Potion while passing through wouldn’t be a bother.

Due to the Cyan Cloud Sect’s connections in East China, no one in the Witch Association dared commission delivery services from Si Motu, claiming the leader’s misshapen vine was still hanging on some concrete pillar.

Wiping his hands, Jiang Si sighed, "When?"

Keke, previously with reddened eyes, immediately smiled through her tears, "Tomorrow! We can leave tomorrow, with Yiyi, An Shiyu, and Senior Susan too!"

Why is it always troublesome folk.

"Alright then."

Keke immediately hugged him, "Brother, you’re the best!"

"Don’t get too happy just yet, if you don’t make it to the top three or acquire the Heart Image Domain, see how I deal with you when we return."

"Got it, got it, don’t underestimate me, I’m Teacher Zi Yuan’s personally trained genius! The goal is the championship!"

"You better be."

...

Southern China, Mingxin City, at the dock.

Sitting by the ship, Ruo Yun held a burger and drank a bottle of mineral water.

Since the last mission succeeded, her finances naturally loosened up, with Hyacinth’s support.

That guy always wanted to spend money on her to incur debts of gratitude.

Ruo Yun hated people who enjoyed flaunting their wealth.
