Arc 1 Chapter 2: I'm a Siscon?!

Ohayo! Nanashikun here with the new chapter... I had too little time this week so I barely finished*sniff* my hard work of sweat and blood. Enjoy!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-Takasugi’s Mansion, San-gatsu 24, 7564-

~Momoe’s P.o.V~

It has been around a three years since Leah… I mean Arisu-Oneechan, and I was reincarnated into this new world. Lets me rewind and explain what exactly happened.

Why am I calling, Leah, now Arisu-Oneechan as Oneechan? Well it's a long story. It would seem that the language and use honorifics and family titles exists in this world. Furthermore, most of the titles and honorifics are almost identical to the Japanese language. How do I know this? Well, since I was an otaku in my former life, I even taught myself some kanji and Japanese culture…

Anyways, there is a reason why I call Arisu-Oneechan as Oneechan. First, Arisu-oneechan and I are fraternal twins. Oneechan is six months older than me however because we were born as two different species. 

Why does being of different species matter? Well, if you studied biology, you should know that every animals have their own gestation period before birth. So what specie is Oneechan and I? Oneechan was born into the specie of vampire. In contrast to the myth about back from Earth, the vampires in this world has quiet a bit of difference. The vampires in this world do drink blood, but only needs to feed on blood once or twice a month. In addition, they are able to be out in the sun but prefer not to because they have acute sense of sight. Also her sense of hearing and smell exceed humans. I don't really know the reason why but vampire’s gestation period(fetal development period) is faster than other races. Which is quiet strange since they age till they finish puberty.

As for me… I'm… I'm…a…nekomimi… Fine! I'll tell you, I'm a freakin cat ear beast-kin! Also you know how I mentioned that Oneechan and I are fraternal twin, I'm a female…*sniff* my manhood~~ I was only fifteen when I died so I was a virgin damnit…. Oh no, my eyes are tearing up… I swear next time I see you Liz, I am gonna give you a piece of my mind!

“Momoe-chan, are you okay? Did you fall while walking again?”

My nekomimi okasan(mother) asked me with a worried face. Ah… Okasan I'm not a baby, I wouldn't fall face flat without tripping on…. Oh! I am a year old baby huh. I'm currently in my room sniffling from the loss of my manhood. It's not shameful since I lost my most important part of my existence. My room is about the size of a regular master bedroom of two story household. The thing is, this room is considered rather relatively modest.

Yup that's right! I was born as a daughter(orz) of an important noble of our kingdom. I still have no idea which kingdom we are in but the way our father boast in front of me and Arisu-Oneechan and our house being a building that is the size of American White House. I still get lost in our ‘house’ because of my bad sense of direction but isn't it too extreme to call this place a mansion instead of a castle?!

“I'm fine myahmy(TL:mommy)”

“Ahhh~ Sweet heart you are sooo damn cute!”

Um… Okasan, shouldn't you watch your language in front of a one year old? Whatever. Anyways there is a good reason why I spoke like that. I’m a year old baby, even if my mental age is that of a fifteen year old boy, I have a body of a child and sometimes I can't control my Motor function as well as I could have. So I can not speak fluently for now with this new body. Goddamnit, Liz turn me into a girl and made me speak like “Nyah Nyah Nyah”. It's really annoying to hear yourself speak like that ya know! Also Oneechan would giggle and pet my head whenever I speak… My pride as my man just hit rock bottom… Uhhh. At least I speak normally when I'm having a telepathy with Oneechan.

Okasan is a beast-kin just like me. I think I received my race gene from my mother since my father is a vampire. It really doesn't make sense, how does genetics work in this world. It doesn't seem like neither me nor my sister seem to be a hybrid of our two parents’ races. I guess fantasy world is different I guess. 

Okasan~ please stop staring at me with such hungry looking eyes…. It's kinda scary ya know? Anyways, I'm a little worried about my appearance after I reach puberty because I have more similarities with my mother than my father. I mean it's not a bad thing. Don't get me wrong, my mother is very beautiful. 

She has feline features like me as I already mentioned. Mother has long deep Crimson hair, deep red eyes, small cute nose and lovely thin lips. She is around thirty years old but she can pass as a teenager. I really would not mind looking like a bishoujo like my mother but her bust size is…. Huge… I don't think it would feel right for me to have big busts… 

Eh?! Oneechan heard my thoughts? Oh crap! I let myself unconsciously transmit my thought.

Oh good job me, that was really smooth. I can't admit that I'm speaking in my mind because I was pretending I was a main character of a light novel speaking to my readers… Oneechan will stare at me with strange look and think I'm childish. I will never let her…

UWA! Kill me, kill me now, this is so embarrassing. Even though we made promise to each other to act like real children and have normal childhood, here I am acting like a looney… And she heard me think about my future breast size… orz

Please stop trying to comfort me. AND WHY THE HECK CAN’T I STOP TRANSMITTING MY THOUGHT TO HER!

Let's calm down and recall the information on telepathy. If I remember right, to turn the telepathy off I have to imagine as if I'm hanging off the phone…. And done.

What promise did I made with Oneechan? Since I mentioned it, I might as well explain what we promised to each other. I and Oneechan promised each other to leave behind the life we had before coming to this world. To us Matt and Leah died in Earth… Even so, I have always been a male so it's kinda hard to let go of that ya know. I rather be a guy instead but I guess there is no way for me to change to male. Even if I decided that Matt is dead and I just have his memory but there still is a lingering feeling. For now I won't worry about it and look forward to my and oneechan’s future. That was the other agreement we had that day, well it was more like I was force too… Since Arisu-Oneechan was born first, I would call her Oneechan. It's definitely not because I went to be pampered by her as a younger sister… Don't judge me.

By the way, strangely, Oneechan only talks to me through telepathy and whenever she talks it's very short. The most word she spoken in front of people other than me is five words.

“Sweetie pie, we are having a guest over today. An acquaintance of mine and her son is coming to visit. She was one of my trusted partner during my adventuring days so get along with her son okay? Her son should be about your age by now.” Okasan cut in off my deep hyster.. ahem, I meant my inner narration, it's not weird! Oh, she is staring at me intently, let's act like a three year old.

“Nyyokayy myahmy!” So Okasan was an adventurer before, I might have to nag her about it later for more information. As far as I know, both my parents used to be adventures. Otosan and Okasan met during their adventure and formed party. After awhile Otosan fell for Okasan and they got married. Served the Qplarsis kingdom during the racial war and earned the title of viscount. But that's a story for another time.

Our head maid, Nitta Maru, entered my room. A cat beast-kin like my mother and me, Nitta San is the one in charge of all the maid servants in our household. She is likely the most closest person to Okasan right after her own family. With purple hair and ears, she is very elegant. Young, around the age of sixteen, and beautiful, you might mistaken her for another noble if it wasn't for her maid outfit. The maid outfit of this world is similar to the Earth’s with black dress and white apron and lots of pretty frilly cloths attached.

“Mistress Takasugi, your guests have arrived. They are currently waiting for you downstairs.” 

“Oh! They are already here! Serve them some teas and snacks, and I'll be there as soon as possible.” Okasan excitedly told Nitta San and dismissed her. Nitta San vowed and left the room. 

“Sweetie, go find your sister and come to the living room together, okay?”

“Yyash, myahmy!” Ugh… My way of speaking is soooooo irritating….

see! I sound so much better when I use telepathy.

This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road. If you spot it on Amazon, please report it.

 

Alright, now to use the twin location system(TLS) or at least that's what I call it. This power allows me to find my sister anywhere, which is convenient for a me with my horrible sense of direction. Passing through the hallway, making twists and turn while passing by paintings, weapons, and armors, I made it to oneechan’s room. I knocked three times before entering.

“Myah here~” As I open the door, Oneechan attacked me! I mean see ran up to me and hugged me tightly. *purrr* Oneechan smells nic…. Nyah! What the heck am I thinking!

She heard my purring noise and smiled kindly and pets my head. It felt ni… I mean I'm an understanding man so I can tolerate those kind of gesture! Without realizing the turmoil in my head, my sister cuddled with me for few more moments. It must be because I changed gender, it's not like I would have liked it if she pet me like that when I was Matt. Changing gender is to blame!

Grabbing my hand in her own, Le… Arisu-Oneechan led me toward the living room of our house. Even if we didn't say it to each other, but it's mutually agreed that when we are moving around together, Oneechan will be the one guiding the way. At first, our parents were confused by how I could always find Oneechan but I can find my way in the house. That and the library. I wasn't a really big reader back in the old world but the books here are interesting, even the history books! The history books are fun to read because it feels like reading a fantasy novel.

We entered the room to find a human woman around the age of thirty and a human boy around the age of three. The lady in front of me was quiet beautiful for her age with brown hair cascading down her shoulder. She had gentle eyes with purple hue was calming but at the same time, her eyes showed wisdom from age. The boy next to her had similar facial feature as the woman next to her. I'm guessing that they are the friend of Okasan’s friend and her son Okasan talked to me about. Wait…a boy our age and his mother came to see us probably… is this what they call political marriage?! Is he supposed to be one of our fiancé?! This is bad, I have to escape with Oneechan…

 

I yelled out while panicking through our telepathy. By now Arisu-Oneechan realized that I was correct. However, compared to me, she was very calm. Is it the difference of six month in our age?

As expected of Oneechan, she has more experience(?) as a female than a former guy.

“Sweeties, come seat next to me, mommy wants to introduce her friend to you.” Okasan broke the ice by gesturing us to seat. Now I realized that not only Okasan was here but Otosan also was seated in the living room with a cup of tea in his hand. This is definitely fishy…

Oneechan gracefully stride toward Okasan and took a seat beside her and I decided to follow her lead and seat next to her. 

The lady in front of us smiled brightly and spoke for the first time, “Hello, it is nice to finally meet you two, Arisu-chan and Momoe-chan. My name is Nonomura Kaya, and this is my son, Kei. You must be wondering why we came to visit today…”

Right, I am. If you think you can take Oneechan away from me with stupid marriage proposal you will have to go through me first!(Author’s note: Momoe is actually retorting in her mind as Kaya speaks. Kaya is not really being interrupted.)

“... I came here today not as a friend of your mother, but as an…”

I don't like where this is going, are you saying you are here as a suitor’s mother?

“… Adventure guild’s guild master.”

I thought so, wait, HUH?! She is the guild master to WHAT?! 

So why is she here, what does she want from the two of us, or is it simply to talk to our parents? Then why are we called here?

“As the guild master, I personally came here to give you two your status card. As you two should know, you get your status card after your third birthday, but since there was a shortage of cards due to population boom, I decided to cone personally to give it to you as to apologize for the wait.”

I remember now! We were supposed to get our status card about a month ago, but there was a delay. I complete forgot…

Kaya-San handed blank metal cards to the two of us and told us to place a drop of blood on it. Okasan helped cut Arisu with a small knife, and Otosan walked up to me as he did the same. The result of the status is…

“Here Momoe, let's see your status card first.”, Otosan smiled gently and took my status plate away to read.

WAIT!!! DON’T LOOK, DON’T BELIEVE THAT LYING CARD! I’M NOT A SISCON! I'm pretty sure Oneechan will be disgusted…

While scanning through my card, Otosan’s face became really pale and his smile cramped. Seeing this, everyone else gathered around and looked over Otosan’s shoulder.

“What in the…”(Kaya-San)

“…Amazing…”(Oneechan)

“My child is a genius!”(Okasan)

“The stats are super high…”(Kei-kun)

“ Umm… Is something wrong with myah’s status card Nyah?” I asked nervously. I don't think they noticed about the title section of the card. But if it's not because of my title, then why are they making such a big deal.

The room became eerie silent as no one talked or bother to explain why the atmosphere changed.

With that vague explanation, Oneechan showed me her card.
