Chapter 429 -429-Kate, I Know Everything
His lazy cousin’s words caused Caelan to pause for a moment.
He did not understand why his lazy cousin would make such a decision.
"So, Cousin, are you planning to take me to the human capital?"
His lazy cousin was slightly stunned. Then she immediately nodded.
"Little Caelan, that’s right. I didn’t expect you to be quite smart. Our destination is indeed the human capital. And with your intelligence, you should have guessed that we have a close connection with the Ironclad Legion."
Caelan nodded.
In truth, he already knew everything.
However, he did not want to expose himself yet, so he directly skipped over the topic and asked instead, "Since that’s the case, why won’t you let Kate come with us? Why does she still need some invitation and assessment? Isn’t that unnecessary?"
His lazy cousin snorted coldly, then looked at Caelan with a proud expression.
"Little Caelan, this is something you don’t understand, right? Let me tell you, I’ve seriously studied how to raise children properly!"
"To put it simply, in this era, what’s popular is raising girls in hardship and raising boys in comfort. Haven’t you heard of that?"
"You’re a grown boy, so of course you need to be carefully protected and cherished. Compared to you, your sister is a girl. Letting her experience more difficulties and temper herself properly will be very beneficial for her growth!"
To his lazy cousin, girls were naturally supposed to undergo more tempering.
Only in this way could they grow into true women.
Caelan did not know why, but although he originally did not agree with his lazy cousin’s view, when he thought of Kate’s gloomy and troubled expression, he suddenly felt that all of this was extremely worthwhile.
After all, being able to make things a little troublesome for Kate was a rare form of entertainment for him.
On the other side, his lazy cousin seemed to suddenly remember something and could not help reminding him.
"Oh right, you absolutely must not tell your sister about this. She still needs tempering, understand?"
Caelan looked as though he had done something bad. He immediately nodded and patted his chest as he made a promise.
"Don’t worry, Cousin. I know what I’m doing. I also think Kate should be properly tempered!"
...
At this very moment, Kate was standing at the door of the room.
She had heard the conversation between Caelan and his cousin, and the corners of her mouth could not help twitching violently several times.
This was simply too speechless, all right?
Just as she was wondering whether she should do something, the next moment, the door suddenly opened with a bang.
For a moment, the atmosphere instantly became exceptionally awkward.
His lazy cousin froze completely.
She had never expected Kate to be standing right outside the door.
So their conversation just now had actually been overheard?
Thinking of this, a huge amount of embarrassment immediately appeared on his lazy cousin’s face.
She coughed forcefully twice, then said, "Well, Kate, tomorrow, you must work hard, all right?"
Kate helplessly curled her lips, then nodded and said, "Cousin, I understand. Although I heard everything you said just now, I’ll still work hard."
Just then, Caelan somehow rushed out as well.
He immediately looked at his lazy cousin with a firm expression.
"My dear cousin, I think you should seriously consider this. Although Kate is a girl, she is still my biological younger sister. And I believe girls also need to be properly protected."
"So, do you think maybe..."
His lazy cousin had never expected Caelan to change his face so quickly!
Clearly, just a moment ago, he had said...
How could he do this?
"Little Caelan, you really are..."
A depressed expression appeared on his lazy cousin’s face.
Through today’s events, she had finally completely understood that her handsome little cousin was actually a massive pitfall!
Just then, Caelan suddenly turned around and gently hugged his younger sister.
"My dear sister, you might not know this, but the Ironclad Legion is actually our family’s!"
"Our grandmother and maternal grandmother created the Ironclad Legion."
"Don’t worry. We’re biological siblings. I absolutely won’t hide anything from you."
Faced with Caelan’s attempt to show goodwill, Kate directly sneered.
After living together for so many years, how could she not know what kind of person Caelan was?
"Heh. My dear brother, just keep acting."
On the other side, his lazy cousin helplessly rubbed her forehead.
She had not expected things to develop to this point either.
"Forget it, forget it. Since everything has been made clear, then so be it."
"Little Kate, come back to our hometown with us tomorrow!"
...
Human Capital.
Upon arriving once again at this familiar place, Caelan felt as though he was revisiting an old haunt.
Compared to his calmness, Kate beside him had a face full of excitement.
She saw the bustling metropolis and all kinds of advanced technology, and immediately felt overwhelmed. There was so much to see that she could barely take it all in.
"My dear brother, look! As expected of the capital of our human race, this place is unbelievably prosperous!"
"My heavens, is that the legendary ultra-luxury airship? I’ve only ever seen it on the news. I never thought I’d actually get to see one with my own eyes one day!"
"Brother, why aren’t you saying anything? Were you also shocked by this magnificent scene?"
Caelan helplessly rolled his eyes.
"Yes, yes, yes. Everything you said is right. Happy now?"
Caelan rubbed his sister’s head.
But very quickly, she rubbed his head back.
Kate vigorously ruffled Caelan’s hair while saying happily, "Reversing the proper order, are we? You’re just a boy, yet you actually dare to rub my head? Watch me rub you to death!"
After the siblings fooled around for a while, Caelan suddenly spoke.
"Oh right, Kate, there’s something I want to tell you."
In truth, in the Inverted World, Kate’s strength had already reached four stars, and she was extremely powerful.
"What is it?"
Seeing Caelan’s serious expression, Kate’s attitude also became serious.
But for some reason, she kept feeling that her brother was probably about to trick her.
"Actually, I need to search for Fragments of History. You should have heard of this thing before, right?"
As Caelan spoke, he took a book out of his storage space and handed it to Kate. Then he continued.
"My goal is to find the Fragments of History. This is also a key factor in helping your brother improve his strength."
"So can I ask you to help me collect some Fragments of History? The more, the better!"
Kate was slightly stunned.
Then a strange smile appeared on her face.
"I can help, but I have one condition!"
