Max Level After 5000 Years
Challenges
Like being carried away by the wind, the news of Ilya defeating the monster boss alone was immediately spread throughout the country, even the video of him had been watched more than two million times and became a trending topic at this time.
Many people were shocked because of Ilya's strength. Some people are not in belief even though they have seen the video, they ask for a press conference to prove Ilya who is in the video.
While the country was boisterous due to the possibility of a new S Rank Hunter appearing, Ilya was instead cold sweat in the quiet middle room as if unaffected by the conditions out there.
'What should I do? Noe! You can take over my body now!'
["I refused. This is your problem"]
Ilya can't be cut out. Noe's voice sounded lazy as he answered her, making Ilya really want to slap the system with her ego.
'You! Damn traitor! Who told me to hide my power try? That's you!'
He was roaring at Noe. Blaming the system for telling him to pretend weak—yah, not any Noe anyway.
The power checker also had a hand in this matter, if only that power check featured the real Rank Ilya he would not be able to publicize himself as a rank F Hunter.
["I suggest that you not be noticed by strong people. You will only be troubled if you have to serve a challenge from them and the tasks assigned by the dimensional guards to you will be disrupted"]
'So the point is you don't want to help?'
Ilya to the point and the sound of Noe's laughter rang out in his ears.
["No. Congratulations to Ilya Sigma"]
Noe's voice just disappeared, he ran away from nowhere leaving Ilya in an awkward and lonely atmosphere in Gauri's private office.
There were only the two of them there and since then none of them had started the conversation.
In the end Gauri's voice managed to break the desolate atmosphere there, she called out to Ilya slowly making the summoned empress instantly jump in shock.
"sister"
"H—hah?"
"I already know"
"H—hah?"
"I already know"
The sister looked at her brother straight. Ilya did not understand what Gauri meant, so all he could say just now was a short 'hah' like a fool.
'What?'
His forehead is getting sweaty. Because of the atmosphere there he could not think clearly. Gauri understood that her brother was not in focus, so she explained it to Ilya.
"I already know about the power of that big brother, actually Brother Ilya is not a rank F right? Brother may be stronger than me"
The answer from Gauri was successful in making Ilya stupefied.
"If you know why don't you ask me?"
Gauri tied her hands together over her thighs. He smiled wryly, then spoke back.
"I don't want to force you to be honest. Brother Ilya must have had a reason to hide it, right? I want to wait until you're honest with me"
Ilya's face was down. A feeling of shame and regret enveloped him at this moment, he should have more faith in his sister but Ilya acted as if she did not trust Gauri and hid everything.
"I'm sorry, I should have told you"
'when I have a very valuable family like Ari, but I can disappoint him like this'
"I'll tell you"
'Is it no problem?'
["It's a secret, but the dimensional guards aren't sending me any signals right now, so for your sister it's okay"]
Strangely when like this Noe even appeared, but he had disappeared.
"really?"
"Yes. I'm gonna tell you, about everything I've done for five years gone from earth and the reason I hid my true power"
Gauri nodded briefly. Eventually, she will soon find out what her brother did during the five years she disappeared.
His ears caught all the words Ilya was saying, he listened with focus then his face hardened even more as he heard all the stories about Ilya's struggle to live in the dungeon that long.
Eating unworthy food, living with fear and not being able to go home. Ilya continued to live like that for a very long time, after the story ended Gauri rubbed her face with both hands.
"Isn't that crazy? Brother Ilya was trapped for 5000 years there!? Brother—you must have suffered all this time"
His voice went up a few octaves. Gauri was angry at whoever made her brother fall into the dungeon, but she was even more angry because she could not help anything for Ilya.
Ilya smiled knot. Seeing Gauri who instantly believed in her words made her happy, she thought her sister would be suspicious of a bit—but Gauri's reaction was purely trusting her.
"I did suffer, but remembering you and mom was the thing that made me feel better in the dungeon. Even though I'm not around now, but at least I have you supporting me, right?"
Gauri looked at him softly.
'Silent brother is not just a miracle, what happens if Ilya's brother returns in a state of madness because it takes too long to kill monsters and get injured? I can't imagine it'
"Now I'm okay. I just have to do the thing assigned by the dimensional guards, after which we can live peacefully together"
"Sister Ilya said there's a system that can take over big brother's body right? Can I talk to him?"
Ilya nodded at the reply from Gauri.
"I could've told you what he told you—"
"No. I want to see how he possessed brother, please let me talk to him" He paused his words for a moment "Will brother feel pain when he receives wounds when you exchange souls?"
Ilya shook her head slowly. He would not feel any pain when Noe possessed his body because then the one who would feel the pain was Noe.
"No. I'll feel the pain when my soul doesn't swap with Noe, and vice versa"
Gauri smiled faintly. Even though he was smiling, but his gaze did not do the same.
"alright. Please meet me with him"
Ilya immediately closed her eyes, trying to concentrate and switch souls with Noe.
'You don't mess with my sister Noe!'
["I won't do it!"]
A second later Ilya's eyes opened, but now it was not the hazel color that was there but the purple color like the beautiful Amethyst gem.
Noe's haughty attitude was instantly visible. Even though she was in Ilya's body, but her aura became very different.
"So, what do you want to say man—"
His voice gasped as he felt the crushing blow that Gauri was aiming at his stomach. Noe slumped backwards, making the chair he was sitting on fall to the floor.
Buahgh!
Uhuk!
He coughed up blood. If only this body he possessed belonged to an ordinary human, it was certain that he would die again. Gauri's punch wasn't playing, it was painful and powerful.
Noe held onto her stomach which was hurting. He looked up, looking at Gauri who was now also looking at him with a sharp look.
"Even your voice sucks. You troubled my brother all this time, my blow was only a recompense from the suffering that my brother had received. I won't let you control my brother's body at will!"
He was clearly angry at this moment. If Noe knew that he would get a single blow to the stomach, he would definitely not want to exchange bodies with Ilya.
"You're very strong, Ilya's sister. But I'm sorry, I'll be in Ilya's body as long as she hasn't finished her job. And we've done a deal to control his body!"
Noe said while standing up. He confirmed the sofa that had tumbled to the back, then sat back on the sofa.
Gauri gave a rude snort. He walked to where he was sitting, his feeling was already somewhat satisfied after hitting Noe's stomach earlier. He was grateful Noe had an ego so that the system could feel the pain from his punch.
"If you mess with my brother's body when you have it, then I'll make sure your soul is blown to pieces."
For the last touch Gauri spits to the left, giving the impression of a female thug who lives on the dark side of the city. Actually Noe himself shivered when he saw Gauri like this, it felt like he would die again if he violated Gauri's words earlier.
Therefore he nodded even though he was broken. Gauri's eyebrows are thick, her eyes are also piercing—even though she has plump eyelashes but when it's like this she doesn't look sweet at all, all there is is is a fierce and frightening impression—persis like a lion mother who wants to pounce on her prey.
"All right, I get it. Stop looking at me like you're going to kill me!"
Gauri shrugged her shoulders indifferently.
"That's what's gonna happen if you put my brother in danger"
Noe vowed never to offend Gauri in the slightest, so he felt sorry for the man who would marry him— definitely later so the husband was afraid of wife.
Unwilling to deal with Gauri again, Noe soon changed with Ilya at once.
Ilya immediately held back her laughter as soon as she regained her body. A rare sight, Noe who usually nags himself so cornered by his sweet and kind sister Gauri.
Gauri breathed a sigh of relief. He sat down next to Ilya, then hugged her from the side making Ilya speechless—she felt it, Gauri's breath and her trembling hands.
"Don't keep anything secret anymore. Try to share your burden with me. I'll always try to help my brother, I promise"
Hearing Gauri's low voice so made Ilya sick herself. Unknowingly she had already hurt her sister's feelings, the only family she had in this world.
Just as Ilya was about to open his mouth, suddenly the door opened violently displaying the figure of a large-bodied man like a bodybuilder with striking Hawaiian clothes.
He also wears sunglasses, but it is not winter.
"Yes! Gauri!! So, where's your brother? I want to challenge him to a fight!"
Not only was his appearance eccentric, his voice was loud and thunderous. Gauri took off her embrace from Ilya, then gave a sharp look at the man who had just entered.
"Gulid master Nex, weren't you taught manners when you walked into people's offices? At least knock on the door first!"
Gauri nagged while pointing at the large-bodied man. While Ilya was digesting the situation.
So right now there was a man with an eccentric appearance who disturbed his sad atmosphere with Gauri, and the man challenged him to a fight.
Ilya was about to stand up, but the man's face was suddenly in front of him. Fortunately Ilya did not fall over in surprise, it could be that he was in front of him when he was near the door.
His smile widened as if finding new tender prey, he touched both shoulders of Ilya then exclaimed with a face of sumringah.
"Let's fight with me!"
