Chapter 5: The Old Guy Leaves the Ramaf Woods Behind

Sharanla woke up inside a room of a run-down inn.

With her manadoll broken, she’d become unable to keep her consciousness inside it any longer.

She’d found the manadoll by chance after killing another play, but it proved so convenient that she came to treasure it.

She’d never considered the possibility that it could get destroyed.

Not to mention, the one who’d destroyed it was her blood-related younger brother, Satoshi Osako. And he had quite the grudge against his older sister—Remi Osako, now Sharanla—to the extent that he’d been genuinely attempting to kill her.

Of course, Remi herself was at fault. She’d only ever seen her brother as a handy source of income, never considering herself to be at fault in the slightest. If she had ever reflected on her actions at any point, then perhaps their relationship could have changed.

Unfortunately, the word “reflection” was missing from her lexicon.

“You’ve really done it now, Satoshi...!”

And of course, it was in her nature to hold an unreasonable grudge against him.

“It took a lot of hard work to get that magic doll! And he made me use up every last one of my substitution dolls and sacrificial offerings too... Does he even know how much this has set me back?!”

Substitution dolls and sacrificial offerings were relics from the ancient times of this world. As you’d expect, practically nobody knew how to make them now, so replenishing her depleted stocks would be very difficult.

Now, Remi would have to carry out her assassination jobs in person, making it harder for her to guarantee her safety. In addition, if the youth restoration potion she’d taken really did mean that she didn’t have much lifespan left, she didn’t want to be taking any careless risks.

She had an idea that her brother, Satoshi, was the only one who could undo the effect of this potion. Unfortunately, the horrible relationship she’d created with him over all these years was finally catching up to her.

He’d gone as far as flat-out telling his sister to die, and that was entirely the result of everything that she had done up until now. He was so possessed by his hatred that he’d come at her, eager to kill her, with a smile on his face. Just seeing her in the forest had been enough for him to attempt a merciless hit-and-run on her with his motorbike.

Of course, he’d never tried to take her life back on Earth. But in this world, life wasn’t worth much, and the likes of spells and magic tools could be used to create the perfect crime.

Further, he’d forced Remi into playing all her trump cards, and told her that “you’re not going to be so lucky next time.” If she showed herself in front of him again, there was no doubt that she’d be erased from existence.

That Remi was able to remain convinced she’d done nothing wrong, despite her brother holding such a grudge, was frankly impressive in a sense.

“Really... Not only was he willing to abandon his own sister, he even tried to kill me.
