SSS-Rank Awakening: My Talent Multiplies Everything novel Chapter 62

Chapter 62: The Primordial Genesis Sutra.

Lyra looked up from the information window floating before her and turned toward Kael. Her fingers tightened slightly around the Staff of Unmaking before a small smile appeared on her face.

"Thank you."

Kael waved a hand dismissively.

"It’s nothing."

Lyra shook her head but didn’t argue. Instead, she carefully stored both items away. She didn’t try to refuse them, nor did she insist that he keep them for himself.

Why would she?

At the end of the day, they were siblings. They only had each other.

Their mother was still lying unconscious in a hospital bed, and for years it had been just the two of them supporting one another however they could. If the situation were reversed and she had something that could help Kael, she wouldn’t hesitate for a second to hand it over.

So why reject something given out of genuine goodwill?

The thought made her glance at him again.

Over the past few days, she had been hesitant whenever Kael spent money on her. Not because she didn’t want to accept anything from him, but because she was scared.

After all, his sudden wealth was strange. Far too strange if she was being honest.

One day he had been lazing around in his room, spending his days playing video games and avoiding the outside world. Then the next, he was casually handing her a million credits and now equipment that most awakened could only dream of obtaining.

None of it made sense.

She had thought about asking him more than once. Thought about sitting him down and demanding a proper explanation. But every time she considered it, she eventually gave up on the idea.

There were things she didn’t understand.

But she trusted him.

And for now, that was enough.

One day, when she became strong enough, she would repay everything he had done for her.

If Kael knew what she was thinking, he would have flicked her forehead immediately.

Repay him?

The very thought was ridiculous.

In his eyes, he was the one who owed her.

Nothing he could ever do would truly repay everything Lyra had done over the years.

When he had pushed people away and isolated himself from the world. When he had become little more than a shell stumbling through life.

Lyra had remained.

She had endured his worst moments without complaint.

Compared to that, what were a few items?

Nothing.

The conversation gradually drifted away from equipment and skills after that.

The two siblings spent the next hour talking about random things. School stories. Neighbors. Local gossip. Funny things that had happened during the past few weeks.

The longer they talked, the more Kael found himself listening.

At some point, a strange feeling settled in his chest.

Regret.

There was so much he didn’t know.

Stories Lyra casually mentioned that he was hearing for the first time. Friends he didn’t know she had made. Problems she had dealt with alone.

Entire pieces of her life had happened while he remained trapped inside his own grief.

Looking back now, Kael couldn’t help but feel ashamed.

He had truly been a terrible brother.

The realization lingered in his mind long after the conversation ended.

Eventually the night grew late.

After exchanging goodnights, Lyra retired to her room while Kael headed toward his own.

The door clicked shut behind him.
