Chapter 325 Reunion...?

Widening her eyes at Shiro’s face, Keomi instantly stopped her attack.

"Big sis? Who are you on about?" Shiro tilted her head with confusion.

"What do you mean? Have you forgotten about me?" Keomi furrowed her brows with confusion.

"When you left the house, everyone was worried. Where have you been all this time? And why has your level and class changed? Did you reset your level?" She questioned while walking up to Shiro and inspected her body.

The fact that Shiro was actually her sister distracted her from the fact that they were literally enemies a while ago.

"Wait hold on, you know me?" Shiro continued to act since she needed this to be believable.

"Of course I do, you’re my sister! Why wouldn’t I know?" Keomi replied.

"I don’t know you. I think it might have something to do with my memory loss since I woke up in New York. I only know that my name is Shiro. Can... you tell me about myself?" Shiro asked as her face was that of concern and curiosity.

"This... wait, I need some proof first. Give me a second." Keomi said while raising up her hand.

Taking a few steps back, she started to use some disguise dispelling items to make sure that she wasn’t hiding her appearance to look like Kuromi.

After seeing her appearance stay the same, Keomi’s eyes brightened up a little and brought out a second item.

"I have a letter from a friend of ours called Yuki. She gave this to me not too long ago and she told me that if I ever see you, I should use this to confirm your identity." She said while taking out a letter that was similar in design to the one that Shiro had received.

’So Yuki had prepared this after knowing that I’m going to Miriel? She’s quite meticulous that woman.’ Shiro thought with a smile while grabbing the letter.

Narrowing her eyes in suspicion, she looked back at Keomi.

"How do I know that this isn’t a trap? What if you tried to kill me when my guard is down." Shiro asked with a glare.

Feeling a familiar pressure from her, Keomi couldn’t help but get excited. It had been a while since her sister had disappeared and now that she’s reappeared, albeit a different name, class and even lost her memories, it was still better than her location being unknown or she being dead.

"It’s either you do it yourself or I’ll do it for you. Pick one sis." Keomi smiled happily.

Seeing this, Shiro couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.

’Is it me or did she change her emotions with a flip of a switch?’ She asked mentally.

{I’d say she’s very similar to you. You do the same occasionally you know?} Nimue replied with a soft chuckle.

Rolling her eyes, Shiro bit her finger and pressed it against the seal on the back of the letter.

Light filled their vision as the letter opened up.

Taking the letter, Keomi read its contents.

"If you’re reading this, this means that you’ve come into contact with Kuromi. Now that I’ve had some chances to think about it, I looked back at some of her recordings and noticed a few changes in behaviour. Her base habits are still pretty much the same but with slight variations. There are slight chances that she may have suffered some damage that altered her memories or changed her personality so I adjusted the seal. The first seal I made when I sent a letter to her was just to test her basic blood foundations to see if there were signs that point at her being Kuromi. This time, I made it so that it also tested her mana coding. With you being able to read this, it means that I’m at least 80% certain that she’s Kuromi.

With that being said, I’ll keep the rest short. I’ve already told Kuromi that I can’t send too many letters since I’m in a bit of a pickle right now. Help Kuromi, stick together and try to make it so that she doesn’t stand out. The last thing we need is more enemies since she seemed to have reset her level.

By the way, I’ve also sent letters to Keiko so she’ll have one for you when you two meet up. These two are the only letters I’ve sent since I can’t send too many letters.

As you’re both in Miriel, try not to cause too much trouble. I know how much you like to damage your surroundings much like Kuromi so keep it subtle.

Final word, once Kuromi entered B class again, send her back to Winter’s Grace and ask either Freya or Natash for a ’guidebook.’

Yuki."

Looking back at Shiro, Keomi furrowed her brows and frowned slightly.

"How did you even lose your memory and get your level reset?" She muttered.

". . . you know, I have memory loss. If I knew what happened previously, it wouldn’t be much of a memory loss now would it?" Shiro raised an eyebrow.

However, while she looked like she was still joking around, her mind was actually analysing Yuki’s letter.

’It seems like she’s quite prepared. Since I’m the key to helping her out of her imprisonment, she wants to guarantee the success. Through sending letters to the trusted individuals and the ones that I’ll most likely meet; she can guide me slowly. Hmm... thought I doubt she can send any more letters for a while since sending at least four letters is pretty risky.’

"Damn, even without your memories you don’t change." Keomi sighed while scratching her head.

"So... why are you even here sis?" She asked. It was a little awkward since she realised that she had almost killed her idol/sister.

"I’m just helping out a friend that I met. Since you’re apparently my sister or something, I guess we’re not enemies?" Shiro shrugged before turning to leave the rift. Since Yin had sent the party out earlier, she wanted to regroup with the rest of them.

"Ah wait for me sis!" Keomi called out and followed behind her.

"So can you tell me everything that’s happened? I think we should see cousin after this and see if we can sort out your memory loss."

"Ok you need to stop that. First of all, while you and Yuki think I’m Kuromi or something, all I know is that I’m Shiro and I can use magic. To me, you’re a stranger." Shiro replied while faking her reaction. Since she’ll be interacting with Keomi more from now on, she needed to set up some ground ’rules’ so that her actions don’t seem suspicious later on.

She needed to seem like she’s sceptical about everything that’s happening around her. After all, anyone would be confused when someone you were fighting with suddenly turned out to be your sister.

"Ah it’s fine. We’ll help you get your memories back. I don’t think we should go back to the house just yet since mum and dad will be more worried about your current condition. Plus, you’re still a mage so they won’t be the most pleased." Keomi smiled since she didn’t mind Shiro’s reaction.

She was just happy that she got to see her sister again.

Clicking her tongue, Shiro left the rift while ’keeping up her guard’ since Keomi was still technically her enemy.

Jumping up on the roof, Shiro looked around to find the party.

"Say sis, does your body still remember how to do our family’s martial art? I know you’ve lost your memory and everything but surely body habits and muscle memory will stay right?"

"Urg, if you want to help that badly, help me find my party." Shiro replied with slight annoyance.

This wasn’t an act since Keomi’s actions of asking her a bunch of questions despite their current situation was a little annoying for Shiro.

"Hai~ Whatever you say sis. But before I do that, your new martial art is pretty good too. You managed to keep up with me last time." Keomi said with a smile before sending out her senses. Since she was a physical based adventurer, her senses were naturally stronger.

When paired with her tracking stills, it didn’t take long for her to find the party.

But before she could even verbalise her findings, Shiro had already leapt towards the party’s location.

". . . Did I just get out tracked by sis?" Keomi muttered in wonder.

Shaking her head, she jogged behind Shiro with a happy smile on her face. In the past, Kuromi had always seemed so out of reach despite her openness.

Now that she had the chance to improve her relationship with her sister/idol from the ground up, she was going to try her best so that a gap wouldn’t open up between them like before.
