The Scards: Start!
Chapter 29: Truth

"I'm advising you because you're my nephew. Although Helena is not my sister and we are different parents, I still consider you to be my niece even if you are the result of cloning or by mistake." Joshua continued to seriously leave Kirania stunned.

"Why doesn't Uncle hate me or disgust me?" Kirania asked curiously. Though his mother and father and his entire family used to hate and even look at his disgust.

"Because every baby born is innocent. And you're innocent at all." Joshua's words came to a halt when he saw a servant taking orders at them and arranging them on the table.

After the servant had finished his task and resigned, they immediately ate because their stomachs had been protesting for filling.

Kirania laid herself on her bed. Joshua's words made him even more curious.

'If you look at Albert's arm, you can see the injection marks on his arm. He is often used as a guinea pig by Damian because he has stamina and endurance above humans in general.'

Due to her high curiosity, Kirania immediately got up from her bed and rushed towards Albert's room considering that the man was still working late.

"Excuse me..." He flowed when entering the father's room that looks neat and clean with the aroma of aromatic watery intoxicating.

"Uhh... If only I wasn't his son, I would've drunk my darling with this scent." His grunts while walking through Albert's room. His eyes moved wildly looking for something that made him curious.

He unceasingly rummaged through Albert's room, let the tanpan man be angry and hate him rather than him be a curious spirit out of curiosity to death. After a long time he finally found a map located on top of the closet.

Kirania sat in Albert's bed and began to open the map. There was a DNA test of his and Albert made him gape in disbelief.

"I am his daughter because I often get blood shots from a handsome father." He said as he remembered the details of his past, where Kirania often got injections containing blood inserted into his veins.

His eyes were round, his chest felt tight as he read the files. Apparently Albert often donated blood and DNA to him, and got injections of research results. Kirania imagines how miserable Albert's life is. Ignoring the raging emotions Kirania read the file to the point of tears. It turns out that he and Albert were only used as weapons for their benefit and would kill him if their goal had been achieved.

Kirania cried as a hiccup coincided with the sound of the room door opening and the familiar baritone voice greeting her hearing made the girl gasp in shock.

"You here?"

Albert entered his apartment that felt quiet considering that this time the night had been late. He entered Kirania's room to make sure the girl had slept. But what he found made him a little anxious. Kirania's room was still bright, but the owner of the room was not there.

The man heard the sound of crying coming from his room. In a hurry he entered his room and saw a girl crying while reading a file.

"You here?"

He saw Kirania turning towards him with a face wet with tears. The girl hurriedly wiped away her tears.

"Why are you home?" Ask in a tone that is made as calm as possible even though occasional sound is heard. The man's body froze as he looked at the beam on Kirania's hand. That's the file he stole from Damian a while ago.

"I just got there." Albert answered, trying to calm down and put his feet up and sat down next to Kirania.

Unexpectedly Kirania threw herself into Albert's lap and hugged him while sobbing, leaving the man confused and trying to calm down Kirania.

"I'm sorry for coming in and reading it without permission. Papa can be angry and hate me. But please don't sell me, hiks.hiks..."

"I don't hate you for this. Because you're my daughter even though you're my clone's daughter. You should have hated and despised me for reading that file." Reply Albert while patting Kirania on the back slowly.

"I hate and disdain my ex-family. They're so mean to you, Pa. Hiks..hiks..."

"Here you go, don't cry anymore, my daughter." Albert said softly. Kirania tightened her arms at the father without any intention of taking off her arms.

After a while Kirania started to calm down and the girl unraveled her embrace. He looked clumsy because Albert's shirt was wet from his tears and snot.

"Papa should be married and have a child who is still a toddler, not a 15-year-old like me." Kirania's words spoiled making Albert stick his head dear.

'Play'

"Admisleading..." Kirania rubbed her shrill head from Albert's affection. He looked at the father with a frown.

"You're tired of living, huh? Shall I send it to the afterlife?" Cynical Albert is upset.

"No, thanks. My life is 1 not a lot." Ketus Kirania while puffing her cheeks a sign of annoyance.

Albert pulled Kirania's cheek making her grimace in pain.

"You want me to be a foster kid, a clone kid or whatever I want to live with Papa. After all you have been taking care of me since childhood sincerely. You don't treat me like the Anderson family or the Brawijaya family. The exception is Uncle Joshua because he's not Damian's son. So let me stay with you, yeah." Kirania said excitedly and looked at Albert expectantly.

"Of course."

As if remembering something, Kirania looked at Albert with a curious look making Albert frown.

"Ah, yes. Pa, fuck is that what?" Kirania asked while putting on a thinking pose. Instantly the air temperature dropped dramatically and Albert's face darkened with lightning striking as his background.

'CTAK' 'CTAK'

There was a twitch on Albert's face, it seemed like the man was stirred with emotion.

"Heh, speaking. Know where that word came from?" Albert asked in a cold tone.

"So when my uncle took me for a walk there was a man approaching us. He said 'Do you want to fuck with me? I'll give you whatever you want.'" Clearly Kirania was plain while mimicking the motions of the dappled nose man making twitches appear more and more on Albert's face.

Albert's face grew dark. He wants to skin Joshua right now.

"But my uncle beat up the man and took me away from there." Kirania managed to lower Albert's emotions.

"You want to know what sex is?" Ask Albert flat.

Kirania nodded doubtfully and said, "It seems like it's not a good thing."

"You better not know about that disgusting thing." Albert's absolute disconnect.

"Because the exam will be held soon, I hope you study hard and pass with satisfactory grades." Said a female teacher while tidying up her teaching equipment.

"Yes, mom..."

"See you tomorrow, kids." Then the female teacher immediately left the classroom. Instantly the whole class was noisy as the market fussed over which school would be their destination.

"Where are you going to school, Kiran?" Ask Aqueera enthusiastically.

"Eitherway. You alone?" Reply Kirania lazy.

"I want to go to a school located in the center of District B. I heard the school is very complete and elite. So my family's gonna send me there." Cerocos Aqueera spirit.

"You know, my dad was a great lawyer and my mom was a top judge. So it's an easy thing." His arrogant speech made Kirania smile lazily. He was tired of hearing Aqueera's useless babble.

"What's a great lawyer? He's settled the case if he gets paid a fortune." Cibir Ganymede.

"really? Do you know where you're from?" Kirania asked telepathically ignoring Aqueera who was busy chattering ria.

"I am the god of the zodiac. So I know everything easily." His arrogant speech made Kirania sigh bored while scraping her suddenly itchy ears.

"... Your father who is just a cheap bartender will not be able to send you there. If you want to go to school there, I can help you." Aqueera's words successfully ignited Kirania's emotions. He wanted to beat up the girl right now, but he paused considering that the girl was an important source of information for him.

"I'll think of your offer next time." Kirania replied and went back to reading the school brochure she just got.

The hour of rest has arrived. Kirania immediately picked up her box of supplies and rushed towards the backyard. Right now he was not in the mood to eat in the cafeteria considering how troublesome it was as he jostled into the room.

The back yard of this school looks quiet but very beautiful and shady. Rarely do students visit this place. He circulated his gaze and smitten at a large, lush mango tree that was there. He happily approached the mango tree and climbed it cheerfully.

Kirania chose a sturdy and shady branch. The girl sat leaning back and started eating the father's lunch crazily while enjoying the heady breeze.

But the happy atmosphere disappeared instantly when his hearing caught a few footsteps approaching him, precisely in the direction of the tree he was sitting in.

Kirania looked at the teacher vigilantly, judging by her suspicious movements. Soon he finished his lunch and tidied it up. He decided to eavesdrop on their conversation. Although it is disrespectful, who knows there is valuable confidential information.

Kirania itself is a reliable information seeker. Thanks to the training she underwent with Albert and Joshua and the extreme training she underwent as a child made her grow up to be a dangerous girl.

The girl's eyes were puffed up when she saw someone familiar coming towards them.

'D–dia...'
