Chapter 76
Chapter 76. The Louis Siblings Reunite
Inside the simple little wooden cabin, a warm fire was burning. The firewood crackled softly, driving away the sharp chill outside. Alice was crouched beside the fire, focused intently on kneading dough as she prepared to cook a bowl of hot noodles.
Three furry Tiansuluo obediently gathered around her. Their round bodies rubbed against her trouser legs, and their soft fur warmed the fabric. They looked both well-behaved and adorable.
After dividing the dough cakes, Alice freed one hand and gently grabbed the Tiansuluo closest to her. She carefully plucked a small tuft of fine, soft fur from its fluffy coat, her movements so gentle that she seemed afraid of hurting the little thing. The Tiansuluo whose fur had been plucked only docilely rubbed against her palm, kicking its little red feet without the slightest resistance.
In this way, she took a bit of down from each of the three Tiansuluo to use as tinder. Then she casually picked up some dry weeds nearby, kneaded the fluff and weeds together, and gently placed them into the dancing flames.

The fire, which had not been particularly strong, instantly leaped several inches higher. The warm yellow firelight reflected Alice’s cheeks a rosy red, and made the entire little wooden cabin even warmer.
Originally, she had planned to send these three little creatures away in exchange for money, but after thinking about it carefully, she decided to keep them. She would treat them as watchdogs.

When she had first taken care of the three little creatures, Alice had simply fed them dry grass. She found it very interesting to watch them nibble at it in small mouthfuls.
But gradually, she discovered that compared to dry, hard grass, the Tiansuluo seemed to prefer drinking warm broth. Every time she cooked noodles, the little creatures would stare pitifully at the boiling noodle soup in the pot, their round eyes full of longing.
From then on, whenever Alice cooked noodles, she would deliberately make extra soup. After it was done, she would ladle out the warm noodle broth, mix it with dry grass, and serve it separately in three dog bowls, one bowl for each Tiansuluo, bringing them over one by one.
The Tiansuluo would always rush over impatiently and lick the soup in their bowls in small mouthfuls, eating with both satisfaction and sweetness. Watching them, Alice could not help letting a gentle smile rise at the corners of her mouth.

At this moment, Alice had already cooked the dough in the pot. Before even blowing on it a few times, she could not resist taking a small bite. At the same time, she teased the three little creatures as if she were playing with dogs.
Just then, a sudden burst of urgent, crisp knocking rang out. Knock, knock, knock. It broke the tranquility of the little wooden cabin.
Alice thought it was some irrelevant passerby and had no intention of paying any attention.
But the person outside did not leave. Instead, a deep voice, carrying a hint of urgency, asked, “Did you once save a soy-braised duck on the snow mountain?”

Alice’s face was full of confusion and astonishment. The three Tiansuluo also stopped licking their soup, raised their little heads in unison, and stared with their round eyes full of bewilderment. One person and three beasts froze there dumbly, completely unprepared for someone to ask such an inexplicable question.
After being stunned for quite a while, Alice finally came back to her senses. Filled with doubt and confusion, she slowly stood up, walked to the door, and reached out to pull it open.

There stood her older brother, Fick Louis, who should have been in Saint-Denis. He was standing in the snow, holding a soy-braised duck in his left hand and carrying a bloodied person in his right.
“Bratty little sister, did you miss me?”
Her eyes instantly widened. All her shock and confusion were replaced by tremendous joy. No longer able to control her emotions, she suddenly spread her arms and hugged Fick tightly.
“I’m sorry... waaah... I’m useless... so useless...”
The grievances that had accumulated for so long completely erupted at this moment. Warm tears instantly spilled from Alice’s eyes and slid down her cheeks.
At first, she only shed tears silently. Later, she gradually lost control, her shoulders trembling slightly as she began to cry loudly.

Her sobs carried the joy of reunion after a long separation, and also hid the grievances she had suffered these past few days. Inside the warm wooden cabin, under the blank gazes of the three Tiansuluo, she could finally release all her emotions without restraint.
This was also the first time Fick had seen Alice cry like this. Those scalding tears pressed against his chest.
He tossed the soy-braised duck onto the kitchen board, then wiped his hand clean on Miss Frank’s clothes. After that, he reached out and stroked Alice’s head, his fingertips gently sliding along her hair as he comforted her trembling shoulders.
Alice sniffled and raised her tear-blurred eyes. She pointed at the bloodied person under Fick’s hand and asked in a muffled, nasal voice, “Who... who is this?”
Fick lowered his head and looked at the mangled class monitor behind him, then said with emotion, “This is your class monitor. I really have to thank her for helping me find the way. That homeroom teacher is dead. This class monitor still has half a life left. I’ll leave her to you.”
Alice decisively drew the knife at her waist and stabbed it into Miss Frank’s heart.

After confirming that she was no longer breathing and had died, Alice seemed to put down a burden weighing thousands of pounds. She buried herself back in Fick’s arms, choked out a “thank you,” then continued crying.
“You suffered a lot these past few days.” Fick kicked the corpse into the cold pile of grass outside the door, then closed the door with his foot.

The three Tiansuluo, who had drunk their fill of soup, now obediently gathered at his feet as well. It was as if they also knew an important guest had come to the house, and they were rubbing against Fick’s shoes.
Fick listened as his younger sister sobbed in his arms and told him what she had experienced these past few days. Her words, “There’s nothing here except the patrol squad,” and “I was afraid I might suddenly get sick and die,” struck his heart one by one.
He let Alice’s tears and snot dampen his clothes, gently wiping the corners of her eyes and the tip of her nose with his sleeve.
“It’s all right now. It’s all right. No matter what trouble there is, your brother can solve it easily.” Fick’s voice was like a steady boulder at the foot of the snow mountain, firmly supporting Alice’s uneasy world.

Fick’s hand slowly tightened. “Frank Bank specializes in trapping retired knights. What happened to our old man may also be related to them. I’m planning to empty their vault and Magic Crystal storage to cultivate my own forces.”
When Alice heard this, her crying paused slightly. She lifted her tear-streaked little face and looked at the brother before her, who seemed to have grown into a hero overnight. Her eyes were filled with surprise and admiration.
“Big Brother, how did you become so powerful now?”
“The answer is one percent talent, one percent support from benefactors, one percent luck, and ninety-seven percent hard work.”

“Big Brother really is a devil. You’re the most powerful and handsome devil big brother on the entire continent.”
As her emotions gradually calmed, Alice rubbed her reddened eyes and withdrew from Fick’s arms. Her nose was still red, and after sniffing twice, she finally remembered the soy-braised duck her brother had thrown onto the kitchen board.

The soy-braised duck was glossy with oil, and a rich braised aroma spread through the warm wooden cabin. She had only been focused on crying earlier, but now that she smelled the fragrance, her stomach cried out at an inappropriate time.
Alice wiped her face in embarrassment, turned around, and picked up a small wooden-handled knife from the corner. She carried the soy-braised duck to a clean wooden plate, turned her wrist lightly, and carefully sliced the duck into evenly sized pieces.
She specially divided the meaty parts such as the duck legs and duck breast, pushed one plate in front of Fick, and kept one for herself. Then she smiled and said, “Big Brother, eat quickly. Have it with the dough and noodle soup I just cooked. It’ll warm you up perfectly.”
