"Why are you doing this?" Yesha asked. Her voice was nonchalant but her eyes showed a glint of sadness. They were always happy in the past, why would her elder sister change up to this point?

"Oh come on, someone like you who stole everything from me will never be able to understand." Inggit, the Vessel of the Envy sin, laughed filled with contempt. After satisfying herself, she pushed Yesha to the side causing her to stumble and almost fell. With a fake smile, she disdained, "It's still fine if you took all the other things that I had." There was a moment of pause before she continued with an angry tone, "But why did you take him away from me as well?"

"..." Yesha couldn't utter a word at that moment. She pondered deep inside her heart and ask herself, was this really her fault?

But she didn't do anything. It was not as if she really had stolen everything from her elder sister. Things were just coming to her on their own. And the same went for him, it was not as if she seduced him or anything. He just came to her in his own accord. All she did was accept. Just where did she go wrong for her elder sister to hate her this much even in this life?

"Are you confused where did you go wrong?" As if she read her mind, Inggit responded with the same smile. She stood up from her throne as she walked closer to Yesha. After which, she grazed her slender hand towards the other party's cheeks and said, "You don't need to think about it. After all, someone as greedy as you will never be able to realize even if I tell you."

Inggit then retracted her hand as she walked and circled the other party. As she was now behind Yesha, she closed her lips on the other party's ears and then said, "Since you are so eager to meet him, and since I cannot stand my beloved little sister to be sad like this, I will go there and pick him for you."

"Don't you ever dare touch him..." Yesha muttered with a hint of coldness blended in her voice.

"Ho? Did I hear it correctly? Is my little sister just suddenly turned fierce?" Inggit circled again to face her cute little sister. She then let out an alluring smile as she continued while closing her lips on the other party's ears again, "How cute. So what if I touch him?"

With an icy tone of her voice, Yesha responded, "If you dare to touch him, then... I will..."

"You will what?" However, before Yesha could even finish what she was saying, a terrifying aura exuded out from Inggit. It spread throughout the land as everyone who felt it all shivered in fear, wondering who had the guts to pissed off their queen.

Yesha on the other hand gritted her teeth under the overwhelming pressure she currently felt. Despite the urge to kneel, she remained standing as she said with great difficulty, "I will... kill you!"

Pfft...

Inggit was taken aback at first upon hearing such a response. She then retracted her terrifying aura as she started laughing instead.

"It's really hilarious whenever you change your attitude like this every time he is being mentioned. Is this what you called love?" Inggit asked with her voice filled with mockery. She looked at Yesha with disdain as if she couldn't imagine how disgusting it was.

"Someone like you who closed her ears and won't listen will never be able to understand. I already told you, you've misunderstood everything from the beginning! He really cares for you. He really loves yo..."

Sapak!

But before Yesha could even finish her words, Inggit gave her a good slap. She was then sent flying before bumping onto the nearby wall and fell on her knees. Blood dripped out from her mouth as she wiped it with the back of her hand. After which, she turned to look for her elder sister as she saw her walking in her direction.

"I don't care about brotherly love... If it weren't for you... If only you didn't come into our life... If only you didn't exist..." Inggit muttered those words as she walked closer and closer to Yesha. As she walked, Yesha suddenly floated in the midair as if something invisible was grabbing her neck to lift and strangle her. Even if she resist and put her hands onto her neck, Yesha just couldn't do anything more but grit her teeth.

When Inggit came closer, she grabbed the chain connecting to the dog collar on Yesha's neck as she said coldly, "Don't worry my beloved little sister, I will let the both of you be together forever. I will make the grandest tomb in the world for the both of you as a memorial for your unfading love."

After Inggit said those words, the dog collar on Yesha's neck emitted electricity, trying to electrocute her to death. Yesha couldn't help but scream in agony as her pained voice reverberated throughout the kingdom, causing a chill to anyone who heard it.

"Hey, watch out." Stella caught and supported the unknown lady as she saw her suddenly lose her balance and was falling. With worried eyes, she asked, "Are you okay?"

The unknown lady, who appeared to be the clone (or something) of Yesha, stared at the other party's eyes as well before taking a deep breath. After a moment, she responded with a smile, "Yes, sorry about that." After which, she released herself from the arms of the other party and added, "Thank you."

"Your face is pale, and you're dripping in cold sweats, are you really fine?" Stella was still filled with worry though. She guessed that it was because the other party had used most of her strength after dispatching six High Rankers single-handedly.

Around them were many bodies lying on the ground unconsciously. The place that was supposed to be a green forest, had its trees cut down and land that formed many cracks and craters. It appeared that it just became a battlefield and turned into such a horrible state.

Many of those bodies on the ground were Middle Rankers but some of them were still exuding a much stronger aura than the others even after their fall. It appeared that they were the High Rankers, probably S-ranks, Stella was talking about.

Both of them had an unkempt appearance, especially Stella who had bruises on some parts of her body. And although the clone of Yesha didn't have any external injuries, she appeared as if exhausted from what she had done. Or at least that was what Stella perceived her to be.

Little did she know that those players they had dealt with were nothing in the eyes of Yesha's clone since they were just S-ranks. It was just that, her original body was suffering from the extreme pain making her be affected as well.

In any case, Robert was not with them anymore right now as he appeared to be on a different location, dispatching other ants.

After they felt the terrifying Greed Energy nearby a little while ago, they couldn't stand idly anymore as they helped to dispatch as many ants as possible. They then separated their ways to do their job.

After all, those ants were planning to go in the direction of that terrifying Greed Energy. Because everyone knew that the vessel had finally appeared. It was as if some kind of wild boss had appeared as they all rushed to get the rewards.

Even the Greed Spirit who was lazing on the lap of the unknown lady in the form of a book had suddenly gained energy as he rushed in the direction of that terrifying Greed Energy.

So right now, there were only Stella and Yesha's clone. It was also the reason why Stella was still safe right now. If she was just by herself, then who knew what kind of danger would she suffer because of the many groups of players running all over the place.

"Don't worry about me." Yesha's clone smiled as she assured her that she was fine. After which, she shifted her gaze in a certain direction, to be precise, in the direction of the terrifying Greed Energy that was still lingering in there. After a moment, she added, "Let's keep going."

"Alright," Stella nodded as she also stared in that direction.

The two then started to walk their way towards the Vessel of the Greed sin. They didn't need to hurry. Only to be wary. After all, there might be an ambush everywhere causing them to suffer if they ever tried to let their guard down.

"Please, be safe and wait for me..." Yesha's clone thought as she had an unshakable determination in her eyes. No matter what, she must save him. Not from the hands of those players who were trying to catch him, or from the hands of her elder sister, but from the Greed Sin itself.

The clone of Yesha gritted her teeth as she still remembered the time when her elder sister, the Vessel of Envy sin, had turned wild when she let the Envy Sin took control of her body. Recalling the terror she caused on that bloody night, Yesha's clone couldn't help but shudder.
