Clangs!Clangs!
The sound of bells echoed loudly from the cathedral, awakening everyone including Laville.
At five o'clock in the morning, which was still a little dark, Laville woke up from her sleep. He immediately got down from the bed, then stood up and stepped towards the window looking at the deep red moon hanging in the sky starting to set in the west and fade until the sunlight shone on the horizon.
…
“Violet is awake.. She wakes up on time as usual.” Zhoui Farren smiled. Due to Laville's memories, Violet really felt like her own little sister.
But I used to have only a little brother, Laville said in her heart.
Violet is different from Laville and Lean. He has not completed the primary education at the Sunday school offered by the Church of the Mystery Gods. However the Leon Kingdom has enacted ‘ Basic Education Law’, the primary education committee began to be established by the kingdom by opening many elementary schools with funds, increasing the kingdom's investment in education.
The real goal is that when many Sunday schools are opened by the church, the community still maintains religious neutrality, so that there is no conflict between churches, especially the Church of the Goddess of the Night, the Church of the Storm God, the Church of the God of Technology.
There are actually four main Churches in the Kingdom of Leon, namely the Church of the Goddess Overnight, the Church of the Storm God, the Church of the God of Technology and the Church of the Mystery God.
Compared to Sunday schools that require one cent per week, public elementary schools require three cents per week. If seen is a bit expensive, but actually Sunday school only provides teaching on Sundays, while public elementary schools provide teaching for six days. In conclusion, public elementary schools are very cheap and almost free.
Violet is a bit different from other girls, she has been very fond of machines and mysticism since childhood. But because Laville herself also liked mysticism, she knew that it was very dangerous.
Therefore, Laville did not allow her younger sister to go too deep into the world of mysticism, and for herself Laville hid the facts very well thanks to her good acting skills. So that no one even knows that Laville is a lover of mysticism.
After suffering from a lack of knowledge, her older brother Lian supports Violet's ideals just as he supports Laville for University. The Brecklund University of Engineering and Technology is still a middle school. So there is no need to learn too much language and general knowledge.
Last year, Violet graduated from elementary school. Sixteen-year-old Violet has fulfilled her dream of becoming a student at the University of Engineering and Technology. And thus, the weekly fee is raised to nine cents.
Meanwhile, Lian's company was affected by the conditions of the Western continent. There was a drastic drop in profits and business transactions. Therefore, what Lian can do is work harder to maintain the work and livelihood of their families, as well as not to be in PHK because of decreased profits and transactions that affect the salaries of employees. Lian has been working more and more overtime lately.
Not because Laville thought and did not want to help and share the burden along with her brother, but because Laville was born into an ordinary person and also only attended an average school. It made it difficult for her to get a job in order to help her brother.
Laville felt a strong sense of incompetence from the moment she first entered the University, it was because everything she learned at the university was very new to her and was her first contact.
He faced various things while still working as a student there, he even often stayed up late and sometimes missed meals. He also tried to get up early so as not to fall behind and finally let him pass with an average result.
All the memories with his family remained active in his mind. But then jerked up and realized it turned out he was still holding the revolver in his hand.
It's a semi-regulated stuff!
And it will also scare others!
The wound on his head had also not healed completely, there was still a hint of pain left in his head!
With her little sister who could come at any time, Laville immediately opened the drawer and threw the revolver into the drawer before slamming it in a hurry.
Suddenly Violet walked in and asked, “What happened?..” Violet looked at him curiously.
Despite not having enough nutritious food to eat, he was still in the peak condition of his youth. However it made his face thin and somewhat pale, yet his skin still exuded an aura of youth.
The surprised Laville quickly forced herself to calm down immediately. After that Laville turned around slowly and quietly, she then looked at Violet then closed the watch that had a photo of both their parents, to hide the whereabouts of her revolver Laville then replied to Violet.
“No, it's nothing. I just move and keep my notebook. Also…. I'm just thinking of Mom and Dad!” Laville replied with a somewhat sad expression.
Then Laville looked at the pocket watch and saw that the needle was not moving. Then he turned the spin button over the pocket watch. But after a few times, he still did not hear the sound of a tight spring from the watch, and it seemed that the two needles remained motionless.
“Haaah..” Exhale. “It looks like it's broken again!” Laville looked at her sister while looking for a topic.
Violet looked at him expressionlessly, then she walked over towards Laville.
After that Violet took out a pocket watch, then fiddled with it for a bit. After that the tick-tock sound of the clockwork motion was heard.
At that moment, the sound of bells clanking from the cathedral was heard. Then Violet pressed a button on the pocket watch to synchronize the time.
“Alright, it's done now. It can already be used again as usual.” Violet said expressionlessly. After that he returned the pocket watch to his older brother, Laville.
Zhoui Farren replied with an embarrassed smile.
Then Violet turned around and walked out of the room, but before that she changed directions and walked towards the closet. Violet picked up her towel and toiletries before opening the door and leaving. He's headed to the public bathroom.
Why does his expression look so frivolous and resigned?
Is this a form of caring love for her widened brother?
Zhoui Farren lowered his head and chuckled. Suddenly a thought came to his mind.
Laville killed herself without a silencer. Well, right now I'm going to consider it suicide. However, how could it be possible to kill yourself using a revolver, people around did not hear gunshots? Even Violet who was within one wall did not hear it!
Is everyone sleeping too well, or is it because his suicide is shrouded in mystery?
Click!Click! Laville opens and closes her pocket watch, she plays it repeatedly.
His gaze was once again overwhelmed with annoyance as he said sweetly “Laville, grab all the remaining bread. Remember to buy fresh today. There's mutton and peas, your interview will be here soon. I'll make you stewed meat and pea soup.”
As he spoke, he moved the stove with a bit of charcoal and started boiling a pot of hot water.
Then before boiling, Violet took out a treasure-like box containing tea leaves as well as a cup from the drawer below. Violet poured two large cups of tea as she halved the wheat bread with her brother over tea.
No sawdust or excess gluten mixed. But the taste is still not appetizing. Zhoui Farren is still limp and hungry. He forced himself to swallow the bread with tea while complaining inwardly.
After a few minutes, everyone finished eating. Violet then combed her black hair that reached the vest and while saying to Zhoui Farren “Remember to buy mutton and peas, too, buy some fresh bread, it costs only nine Pounds. Today is very hot, it will make the bread more quickly stale so be careful.”
Indeed, she showed her care for her boring brother. He even repeated it twice. Zhoui Farren replied while nodding and smiling.
“Good!”
After that Violet did not say anything more. He stood up and tidied up the dining room. After packing the last loaf of bread for lunch, she put on the ragged hoodie hat their mother left behind and a stitching bag of her own to carry books, stationery and prepare to leave.
Violet went to Brecklund University of Engineering and Technology, which took about an hour and 10 minutes. There was a horse-drawn carriage that cost three cents per kilometer with a limit of five cents in the city and seven cents in the suburbs. To save some money, Violet walks a portion of the trip.
After opening the main door, Violet paused for a bit, turned around and and said to Laville “Laville, don't buy too much mutton and beans, Lian will probably be back on Saturday. And remember we only need eight pounds of bread.”
“Good, sure.” Laville replied in despair.
In the Eastern and Western Continents, there are twelve months per year, four weeks per month, and seven days per week. And the division of the moon was the result of astronomical observations, it made him think whether he was in a parallel world.
Upon seeing her sister, Violet left she immediately exhaled.
He plans to restart his previous ritual on earth to find out if it has anything to do with his transmigration to a world similar to this parallel world.
Then he immediately returned to his room room to look for some equipment that would be used for the ritual. In addition, he also made sure his apartment room was safe, and no one would come to him and lock the main door after confirming it.
Zhoui Farren was determined to perform the ritual, she desperately wanted to return to her home, back to earth.
I'm sorry, I really want to go back to my world…
Zhoui Farren muttered in an almost inaudible voice.
