章 3: She Met Her Little Brother
Jane stood in front of her house.
Her eyes are a little red, maybe because she feels how many years she hasn't stepped into this house.
Well, in fact, she had indeed not returned home for a thousand years.
Jane lives in this house with her dad and her younger brother.
This house is a legacy of their deceased grandfather and has not been occupied for years.
By coincidence, the job of her dad was moved to this city, then he decided to occupy this house rather than buy new.
Besides this house is not too old, instead, it still looks like a new house because every year her father always asks someone to clean this house.
Meanwhile, Jane stayed at home until the age of twenty-two then moved out of the city and rented an apartment which is close to her workplace.
Ever since Jane didn't live at home anymore, she only came home a few times in a year for a reunion with her little brother and her dad.
The last time she set foot on this house was during the celebration of her little brother who got a new job.
Jane never thought that her return was her last return to home because when she was about to go back to the apartment, she accidentally transmigrated to another world.
Saying that she's not nervous at all, that's a lie!
In fact, she was really nervous right now.
After all, this time she was finally able to meet again with her family after so many years.
At this hour, usually her father is still working but at least there is still her little brother.
When Jane was about to knock on the door, she halted... she remembered that she had never knocked on the door.
She just opened the door, "Keith, I'm home"
The sound of footsteps was heard from the hallway of the door, then showed a figure of an adorable five-year-old little boy, he shouted out: "Jean!"
Jane squats and fiercely pulled the little fella into her arms. As she hugged the little fella's soft little body, her repressed longing flooded out of her.
How many times had she warned him about her correct name but even until he grew older, Keith still insisted on calling her Jean,
"It's Jane, not Jean!" she wiped her tears secretly and let go of her arms.
"How is your new school?" Jane asked Keith.
"I get new friends" Keith clapped his hands.
"As expected of my little brother, the first time he moved to new school already got a new friend" Jane praised her little bother by rubbing his head.
"I gave them sweets, then they were willing to be my friends" Keith giggled.
'So, you mean you pay them to be your friend?' the tip of Jane's mouth twitched.
"Jean, Aunt Dora gives us food, I keep it in the kitchen. I'm waiting for you to eat together, but you take too long so I eat first" Keith being honest as his face like he was wronged.
Jane laughed after hearing it as she didn't mind it. She lifts up her little brother and carried him to the kitchen.
"Oh, there's still a lot of food, don't you forget to thank Aunt Dora?"
"I've thanked her"
"Good boy" Jane rubbed little brother's head and kiss his cheek as she put him down, "You play there first!" Keith immediately ran to the playroom.
After Jane finished eating, she immediately returned to her room to change clothes.
She stood in front of the mirror, then smiled: "This is me!"
She admitted that she looked cute when she was a girl with her short hair, but when she grew up she looked dull and unkempt.
Maybe because she never had a boyfriend, so she didn't have the enthusiasm to take care of herself.
"Boyfriend?" Jane smirked.
She just fell in love once and the man she loved was impossible to be dated.
Even in Isla, no man can enter her eyes.
After changing clothes, she sat on her bed and sat cross-legged.
She closed her eyes.
In her first attempt at school, she could still feel the mana source inside her body. She breathes deeply and felt the mana around her.
"I can feel the mana, but... err, it's very thin"
Jane examined her strange mana source, it was spacious but it was tied by a golden chain and golden padlocks.
"This... a seal?" Jane's happy expression became gloomy instantly.
"How can this be..."
Jane tried to open the golden padlock but in vain. Every time she wants to touch the seal like there is a rejection from it.
She frowned deeply, "What kind of seal is this?"
Jane tried it many times but it was still useless.
She was angry but sighed... maybe this was a punishment for trying to experiment with that Forbidden Magic.
Never mind, at least she can still use magic.
Even though she didn't familiar with that kind of seal, but maybe someday she could gradually open the seal.
Jane opened her eyes and sighed again like a grandma...
"With my strength now, I'm only on the level of Apprentice Magician"
The so-called Apprentice Magicians are peoples who are new to magic and only learn some cheap magic tricks such as [Fire Ball], [Ice Spike], etc. As for people who want to become an official Wizards, they must at least be able to master level 1 Magic Art.
Jane left the room and went to the playroom to accompany her little brother.
"What are you doing, Keith?" Jane squatted in front of him.
"I'm drawing, look Jean! Is that good?" Keith cheerfully shows the results of his drawing.
For a moment Jane saw the picture, her face cracked, she held back the urge to laugh.
'Well, well, he's still a kid anyway'
"What is this?" Jane pointed to the pointed triangle image.
"That mountain"
"What is this?" Jane pointed to a half-round image between behind two mountain.
"Sun"
"Why is the sun behind the mountain?"
"... It's hiding"
Feeling amuse Jane continued asking: "Hide from who?"
"Err..." Keith felt troubled because he didn't know what to answer, "From Aunt Zena?"
Jane lit an eye as if curious, "Why is Aunt Zena?"
"Daddy is the strongest, but every time daddy sees Aunt Zena he is always hiding"
Jane immediately burst out laughing. Indeed, her dad always trying to hide every time Aunt Zena visited.
Speaking about Aunt Zena, she is the biological sister of Jane's and Keith's mother. She is very gentle toward Jane and Keith but is always strict to their dad.
When they were still in Farhand, Aunt Zena often visited their homes. Unfortunately, now it is difficult for her to visit again after Jane's Family transfer to Hazel because the distance is too far.
Tok Tok
While the brother and sister were playing, a knock on the door was heard from the door of their house.
Jane turned towards the door, tilting her head slightly.
She stood up and walked toward the door, "Yea ..." as she opened the door, she halts in astonished.
"Who?"
A man dressed in a delivery uniform, wearing a hat while his hand holding a crackle bag, he smiled: "Pizza Delivery"
"Pizza?" wondering who will order Pizza in this hour?
Jane, "Excuse me, maybe you got a wrong customer"
"Eh? but the address is here" The delivery man is even more confusing than the customer.
"But nobody ordered Pizza here"
"Eh?" The delivery man felt both troubled and guilty, "I'm sorry for interrupting your time, maybe this is a prank from someone. It's happened often"
Jane smile slightly, "It's fine"
"Then ..." he excused himself and left, while Jane closed the door and returned to accompany her little brother.
Shortly thereafter, another guest knocked on the door.
This time it was Ellie, she was the next door neighbor and her mother was Aunt Dora who provided a lot of food during the day.
"Jane, I came to visit you" Ellie impolitely entered Jane's house.
Jane yelled, "I'm here Ellie"
Ellie approached and sat next to them, "This is your little brother? so cute" she pinched Keith's cheek.
Jane smiled, "His name is Keith"
Ellie asked: "Keith, how old are you?"
"Five"
"He goes to school?" Ellie looked at Jane.
"Yeah, Sierra Kindergarten"
"That's my kindergarten, Keith I'm your alumni, hurry call me senior!" She tried to talk to Keith, but he ignored her, he is into his toy instead.
"..."
Jane chuckled seeing this, "Oh right, Ellie did your family order a pizza?"
"Hm? No, why?" Ellie puzzled.
Jane silent for a second, and then, "Oh... nothing!"
