Felyn wiped off two stools and moved them in front of Olivia’s hospital bed, “Take a seat, Viloti.”
Upon hearing this, Olivia’s heart twitched.
Take a seat?
Take what?
Are they going to do it right in front of me?
They're really going to do it in front of me?!
Just to seek some thrill, she is actually going to make my big brother do something so shameful right in front of his beloved little sister?
If Viloti says something ambiguous now, Olivia might not wake up for a very long time.
She’d probably faint from anger right on the spot.
Viloti placed the flowers and fruit on the bedside table—gifts she had hurried to buy at the hospital entrance after being told she could visit Olivia.
She sat down with her hands resting on her knees.
Viloti was a textbook noble lady—her sitting posture, her standing posture, everything was graceful.
It was likely the result of etiquette training since childhood.
She quietly looked at the girl lying on the bed.
Another beautiful girl.
Olivia’s face was like a whipped cream cake—irresistibly soft and pinchable.
Her golden hair framed her face like a gift delicately wrapped by the hands of a god.
When it came to Felyn’s “relatives,” Viloti always felt a bit suspicious.
Bernice had also claimed to be his relative, but didn’t look the part at all.
“Viloti, have some fruit.” Felyn washed the fruit she had brought and placed it beside her.
“But… Felyn, this…”
“It’s fine. Olivia can’t eat it anyway. If we leave it there, it’ll just go bad. If she hears us eating, it might even make her happy.”
Big brother, I’d be very happy to hear you eating—no, just eat me instead!
But not with another girl eating my get-well gift!
Viloti didn’t decline any further. She held the apple in both hands and took a small bite.
Olivia, from the sound of Viloti’s bite, could hear peace and happiness.
Hey hey hey, just from eating my big brother’s hand-washed apple, you’re that happy?
Wait a minute, you… you’re not falling for my big brother, are you?!
Olivia wished she could jump up from the bed.
This body was so useless—she could only watch helplessly as her big brother was slowly conquered by some other woman, and she couldn’t do a thing!
Listening to the voice of this girl named Viloti, Olivia could sense she was young—maybe even pretty.
It was the first time she became aware of a problem: her big brother and she were not the same.
Every day, he met all kinds of people.
Such a gentle and outstanding big brother would definitely be targeted by many girls!
If I don’t wake up soon, some other woman might actually steal him away!
Just imagining her big brother one day marrying another woman filled Olivia with despair.
Just imagining having to stand by as his little sister, watching him be lovey-dovey with someone else—Olivia felt like she would lose her mind.
No!
If only—if only I could move!
If I could move, big brother would definitely love me. He’d definitely love this body of mine.
Olivia’s emotions surged to the limit.
The Evil God's consciousness began to stir in her mind, clashing violently with her body.
Olivia’s body had almost perfect compatibility with the Evil God, allowing its power to manifest to the fullest inside her.
I have to… I have to make Big Brother notice me more…
On her lower abdomen, unnoticed by anyone, a faint pink light appeared—an Evil God Mark slowly began to form.
Viloti noticed Olivia’s fingers seemed to twitch.
Just as she turned to speak to Felyn, she found him already asleep in his chair.
Looking at Felyn’s exhausted face, Viloti’s lashes lowered slightly, shadowing her dim eyes.
A life like this… surely he lived it over and over, every day.
Treating contamination required a lot of money, and the Sorester family had ended up like that.
Viloti couldn’t understand how Felyn could possibly afford the cost.
He was always busy. Even at night, he’d say he had to work.
He must be working hard after school every day.
But what kind of work could earn that much? Viloti couldn’t imagine.
Now that she thought about it, Felyn never had many clothes—he always wore his uniform at school.
Viloti gripped her long socks tightly, realizing the reason: Felyn probably hadn’t bought new clothes in a long time.
You’re so good-looking…
She secretly turned to stare at Felyn’s sleeping face, unconsciously watching for a long time.
In the darkness, Olivia could only hear the sound of clothes rustling.
Why aren't you two talking anymore?
Don’t tell me your mouths are doing something else and can’t talk?
The thought that her big brother might be hugging Viloti at that very moment shattered Olivia’s last bit of sanity.
The Evil God’s will took over.
The marks on her body glowed brighter—the Evil God was rapidly transforming her body.
In Olivia’s fading consciousness, a light appeared.
It was the first time she had seen light since falling into a coma.
She could see.
But still, she didn’t open her eyes.
Using the Evil God's power, she could sense her surroundings, strangely, she could see even with her eyes shut.
And the first light she saw in years was the image of her big brother.
He was dozing in his chair.
Big brother! My big brother! I want… I want my big brother…
It was her first time borrowing power from the Evil God.
But the price… was that the Evil God was now viciously devouring her consciousness, trying to take over her body.
Olivia ignored the pain of being devoured. She didn’t care about anything—she only wanted to see her big brother once more.
Even if it meant losing herself completely.
Her vision grew more and more blurry. She could feel her body slipping out of her control.
Voices in her head grew louder—noisier.
Just as Olivia was about to fully black out, a familiar, warm hand gently stroked her head.
“I had a nightmare just now. I dreamt that Olivia suddenly left me—it scared me so much.”
Felyn stood from his chair and gently patted Olivia’s head.
“Felyn, are you really close to Miss Olivia?” Viloti asked curiously.
“She’s special. To me,” Felyn replied.
After all this time, Felyn already regarded Olivia as his little sister.
She had become his emotional anchor.
Just thinking of having a quiet, reserved, talented-in-drawing, shy-smiling little sister, One who’d follow silently behind him, doing things together.
It gave Felyn more courage to face life.
The words in her mind and the warm touch on her head made the Evil God's consciousness slowly fade from Olivia’s thoughts.
My… Big Brother…
Olivia’s tense body didn’t relax. Instead, for some shameful reason, it stayed stiff.
The pain she had just felt vanished.
Just from Felyn’s touch, her emotions began to calm.
But the glowing pink marks on her body remained.
She could still see Felyn’s face.
Using the Evil God’s power would permanently alter the host’s body, making it stronger, but also making the mind easier to corrupt.
If that corruption couldn’t be stopped, the Evil God would completely take over.
And this time, that crisis was unknowingly resolved—by Felyn’s touch.
At Olivia’s bedside, Viloti watched Felyn gently stroke her head.
She saw the tenderness in Felyn’s gaze.
Despite bearing so much, suffering so deeply, he had never blamed Olivia.
Instead, he still treated her as someone incredibly important.
To give everything for someone you care about, and never complain.
That kind of Felyn… was both gentle and strong.
I think… I like Felyn even more now.
Viloti’s blush deepened. Her breath grew heavier.
Her amber eyes moistened, filled with nothing but Felyn.
“It’s getting late, Viloti. Let’s head back.” Felyn looked at Olivia’s brow finally smoothing out, and realized he’d been stroking her for quite a while.
Viloti glanced at her watch. It really was late, so she nodded and followed behind Felyn.
But as they left, she noticed a patch on Olivia’s bedsheet seemed wet.
That’s strange. Did someone spill water on it? Or… did I see wrong?
After leaving the Contaminated Treatment Ward, Viloti walked a bit slower.
Because once she left the hospital… she wouldn’t see Felyn again.
She stared at his back, wanting to etch the image into her mind.
Due to the upcoming school festival, Viloti had been chosen to represent the school for a sponsorship discussion project in the Royal Capital next week.
That meant she wouldn’t see Felyn for a few days.
But even just a few days… Viloti already found it hard to bear.
