Read Bodybuilder Reincarnation :: Chapter 3: Homeschooling - 3

I needed to bring back my acting skills asap or I would eventually be found out. The way things were, I couldn’t lose Luna just yet, there was still much to learn about everything, and as the present situation just proved, I couldn’t properly defend myself.

“Big sister… I don’t remember so well…” I wasn’t quick enough to think about something that was not obviously a lie, so I decided to act like it was a mystery even to me.

I had also previously instructed Toba to not talk anything about our past, and my plan was to think about a fake background eventually, but well… I procrastinated.

“I see… You two definitely don’t have a normal past, but I’ll do my best so you guys have a normal childhood from now on.”

She stared at me with a resolute face, and after thinking about it for a second, she continued.

“Ok, I’ve decided, no more fights and training for you two. You have been neglecting your studies even though you’re a prodigy and Toba has a great difficulty with learning, you’re both too young for swords and spells, the priority should be the basic education.”

SHIT, SHIT, SHIT. This is bad, I’ve only just learned that Luna is a huge badass and now she won’t teach me combat anymore? I need to turn this around quick.

“…”

“Cona? What’s wrong baby?” I stared at the floor and she immediately reacted to my abrupt silence, I was not letting her see my eyes.

Think about something sad… I need to think about something really sad…

Me dying on stage and loosing the competition? No that’s not enough… Grandma’s death? No, not doing it either, but it’s getting there…

“… Sniff”

“W- What’s wrong? I’m only thinking about what’s best for you! Didn’t you get scared just now?”

Good, she’s already wavering, but I need more.

My girlfriend breaking up with me? Ooh, that stings, but not enough. My friends leaving me? Nah, there’s no way something like that would- Wait, what the fuck.

“Uuuuuuuh…” Much to my surprise, tears began to race quickly down my face, and soon I was fully crying.

Now I just need to add in a bit of desperation and ride that feeling.

“No, d- don’t cry! I was just-”

“WAAAAAAAAAAAH… BIG SISTER WON’T TEACH ME ANYMORE FUN STUFF AND I’LL LEARN ONLY MATH…”

“N- No! I’ll teach you lots of stuff! We’ll just put dangerous training on hold and- “

“I’LL NEVER LEARN HOW TO PROTECT TOBA... THE TIGER WILL KILL US BOTH… WAAAAAAAAAA”

“No, It’s... Sniff... It’s not true…” Her eyes began shine while they were slowly filled with tears, and even her voice was already nasally, signaling that her tiny nose was getting clogged.

Wait, she’s crying too?

“I’ll teach you… Sniff… So don’t cry… Uuuuuuuuh”

…

We kept crying for a while. I took the opportunity to discharge a little bit, but soon got over it. Luna, however, kept at it for several minutes… In the end I was the one who had to console her.

“Don’t worry big sister, I promise I’ll stop running away from geography class, and history class, and botany class… I- I’ll stop running away from classes, I just don’t want to learn math anymore…”

“Sniff… You promise?” She raised her head and asked, still with tears in her eyes.

“I promise” I said while patting her head.

This woman… One moment she’s cutting throats and exploding people, and next she’s breaking down completely...

Luna oneechan you’re scary but you’re too easy, if you give in that easily I’m going to start sneaking in while you bathe.

And so, we got up. Pink haired women and green haired child, covered in blood and smiling with humid eyes in the middle of cut open bandits and exploded corpses.

Certainly, a memory to be kept.
