Interlude – Still
“I am… “I can’t admit it.”
Isabella bit her lip and glared at Cassia.
“Does it matter whether you admit it or not?”
“You tricked Ohjin and brought him to the Black Star Constellation!”
For some reason, Moebius meekly retreated, so Ojin wasn’t seriously hurt.
It was a situation where his life could have been in danger if he was not careful.
No, even if he survived the fight against Moebius, Ojin would have had to use ‘that technique’.
And she also knew the price of using that technique.
‘Mr. Oh Jin’s memories… It could have disappeared again.’
Even if it’s not a memory of yourself.
I couldn’t take it lightly when I thought about how much pain he must have felt as his memories were forcibly cut out.
“that… .”
“It was for me?”
A cold sneer appeared at the corner of Isabella’s mouth.
“If you really cared for me, you wouldn’t have done that, sister.”
* * *
Cassia would also have known how precious Oh Jin was to her.
Nevertheless, she tricked Ojin into bringing him here.
Into a dangerous trap where the constellation of black stars is hidden.
“… … .”
“why? “Did you think you would be grateful that I saved you?”
Isabella glares at Cassia with venomous eyes.
It was not the attitude he would show to his older sister, who was willing to sacrifice her life to save her kidnapped younger brother.
To say ‘thank you’, what Cassia did was something Isabella could never tolerate.
“Why did you try to save me in the first place? “When did you stop trying to kill me because you hate me so much?”
“that… .”
Cassia, who was thinking about what to say, soon sighed deeply and shook her head.
“… “I don’t know.”
“You don’t know? “What do you mean you don’t know?”
“I forgot why I tried to save you?”
Cassia shrugs her shoulders with a faint smile.
Isabella bit her lip and frowned.
“… What is that.”
“Well, anyway, the results are good, so it’s okay, right? “Bella, you are safe, and Ojin was not seriously injured.”
“You mean as long as the results are good?”
“Isn’t the outcome better than having a bad outcome?”
Cassia and Isabella’s gazes intersect.
The harsh lifestyle created by the sisters filled the abandoned building.
“stop.”
Oh Jin, who was waiting quietly for the two to resolve the issue, let out a deep sigh as if it couldn’t go on like this.
The eyes of the two sisters, who were in a tense standoff, turned to Oh Jin.
“Let’s first sort out the situation. Cassia, are you feeling okay?”
“ah… .”
Cassia, who only then realized that she had suffered serious internal injuries, smiled awkwardly and shook her head.
“The pain is less than before because I didn’t use magic power, but… “It’s hard to say it’s good.”
“Come here.”
“yes? … “Aaaah!”
Ojin wrapped his arms around Cassia’s waist, sat her on his thighs, and placed his hand on her left breast.
“Oh, Ojin?”
“W-what are you doing?!”
Cassia avoids gaze with blushing cheeks like a girl in her first love, and Isabella stands up with an angry expression on her face.
The voices of the two sisters mixed with different emotions rang in my ears, but now was not the time to pay attention to him.
“Stay still. “I’m not used to the Aquarius stigmata because I don’t use it often.”
Ojin activated the stigmata of Aquarius by placing his hand over the stigmata of Ophiuchus engraved on Cassia’s left breast, to be exact.
In the case of the stigmata of Aquarius, it was a stigmata specialized for making potions and medicine rather than direct healing, but that did not mean that it had no healing ability at all.
‘And to maximize this healing ability.’
With my eyes closed, I slowly unleashed the power of the Black Sky.
‘Sanctuary deployment.’
Wooooow!
A soft halo of light covered the body.
It was the first time creating a sanctuary with the stigmata of Aquarius, but the principle itself was similar to when creating the sanctuary with the stigmata of Lyra.
I felt a sense of omnipotence that tingled down my spine, along with the sensation of an enormous amount of magic flowing out like an ebb and flow.
“ah… “Internal injury.”
Magical power as clear as water drops flowing through the stigmata.
I could feel the messily torn magic circuit healing little by little.
After Aquarius’ magical power circled Cassia’s body once.
“Whoa.”

Ohjin released the sanctuary with a clear look of exhaustion.
The subtle light that covered his body disappeared as if scattered in the air.
“It wasn’t completely cured, but the pain would have been much better.”
“… thank you.”
Cassia looked up at Ojin with hazy eyes, as if she was somehow drugged.
The touch of Aquarius’ magical power still lingers in the body like a lingering scent.
As the internal injuries healed, a tingling feeling of happiness filled the place of the pain.
“then… .”
“Wait.”
Cassia grabbed Ojin’s hand that was about to fall from her chest and pressed it.
My heartbeat, as if it was going to explode, was transmitted through my palm.
“little bit more… Please stay like this.”
Cassia smiled brightly at the warmth flowing through her chest.
Unlike her slender hands, his wide hands made me feel like he was a man.
The warmth flowing through his palm was so warm that I thought it would be nice if time could stop like this forever.
“uh… “You want me to stay like this?”
Oh Jin cleared his throat with an embarrassed expression.
Although it didn’t bother me much when I touched it for therapeutic purposes.
As I quietly raised my hand like this, I could feel the soft touch of my palm trying to assert itself to some extent despite its slender body.
“Just a little more, just a little more, hey? “Won’t it come off quickly once the treatment is over?”
Isabella’s expression twisted fiercely as she pulled Cassia, who was sitting on Ojin’s thigh.
Cassia, who was forced to leave, touched her left breast, where Ohjin’s hand had touched, as if she felt regretful.
“It was a good time… Is that right, Ojin?”
“Hmph, what’s so good about chewing gum like that?”
“… “What did you say just now?”
Cassia’s emerald eyes shone eerily.
“What do you say? “You just called a gum scab a gum scab?”
Isabella raised the corners of her mouth and crossed her arms.
Above the crossed arms, the two huge peaks exuded a massive presence.
“Tsk… .”
Cassia wasn’t small compared to her body type, but that was just a general standard.
In front of that unconventional peak, all she had was a bump for traffic.
“The first thing I thought about was bragging about our physical differences. It’s so childish that I don’t even think about responding.”
“Yes, chewing gum.”
“Ha, where did you learn to wear such long hair? “Really, Bella, you haven’t changed at all since you were running wild in the garden.”
“Your next gumball.”
“this person… !”
Sometimes the most childish provocation is effective.
Especially between brothers and sisters, such primitive and base provocations were bound to shine.
“You cheesy little boy!”
“I don’t want to hear this from a sister who clings to her younger brother’s husband?!”
Now I don’t even have to worry about losing face.
The two sisters rushed towards each other and started fighting, pulling their hair.
“… … .”
Seeing the sight of the two women, who he could hardly bear to open his eyes to see, Oh Jin quietly got up from his seat and walked out of the abandoned building.
The moonlight shining brightly in the night sky beat down on him.
“ha.”
want to go home.
“haha.”
“eww… “What is this, really?”
After a fierce battle(?), the two lay on the floor of an abandoned building, panting heavily.
“… Gum scab.”
“Oh my, that lump of fat has a snout?”
Sisters staring at each other while lying on the floor of an abandoned building.
They seemed as if they were going to attack each other again at any moment, but neither of them made the first move.
“ha.”
“… “What are we doing?”
Did you say that the end of war is always in vain?
The two women turned their backs to each other, keeping their mouths shut amidst the onslaught of jealousy.
Isabella was the first to break the silence.
“sister.”
“why?”
“Why were you trying to save me?”
“… “You said you forgot, right?”
“lie.”
Cassia’s shoulders trembled.
I felt Isabella’s stinging gaze behind me.
“Didn’t you hate me?”
“I hate it.”
How can I like it?
What she doesn’t have, Isabella has as if it were a given.
“Then why…” .”
“still.”
Cassia turns around.
Cassia smiled slightly as she stroked Isabella’s head.
-lol. I really like you!
A memory that I could not forget even if I tried to forget it.
Memories that could not be erased even if I tried to erase them.
It was old, rusty, and faded.
“You are my sister, right?”
Cassia smiled brightly, recalling a precious time.
“… … .”
Isabella opened her mouth with a blank expression, as if she had been hit on the head with a hammer.
Isabella moved her lips as if about to say something, but then turned her head with a blush on her face.
“Hmm. “Anyway, won’t you get up soon?”
Breaking the awkward silence, Cassia stood up.
Cassia took out a small hand mirror from inside her dress and frowned at her messy hair and ruined makeup.
When I thought that this was the result of a fight with my own younger brother while holding my head, I felt a shame that I couldn’t express in words.
“This is the first time I’ve felt this miserable.”
Isabella pursed her lips as she looked back at Cassia, who was grumbling.
“Then why are you hitting on someone else’s husband?”
“If anyone hears it, they will think that Oh Jin is really your husband. So, Bella, aren’t you the second one too?”
“Well, that’s… !”
“And it looks like the silver-haired constellation joined us not long ago.”
“… Tsk.”
Cassia let out a soft laugh as she looked at Isabella biting her lip.
“The first time is difficult, but wouldn’t the second time be easier? Oh, is this the third time?”
“Are you out of your mind? “You and I are sisters!”
Isabella screams.
“Oh my, is there a law that says sisters can’t like the same guy?”
“No, that… “This is strange.”
“There are some things that are even better because we are sisters?”
“… “What does that mean?”
“well? What do you think it means?”
Cassia burst out laughing and shrugged her shoulders.
