494 Their Story
"Excuse me!???"
If it's possible for Raven's brow to go higher past his face, it would probably be pretty high up in the sky right now due to the ridiculous words he just heard right now.
"Like I said, You - or someone who looked exactly just like you, took our purity from us. It happened when we were kids." Pyra replied, still with her head lowered. It is painfully obvious that whatever it is that's she's saying right now is truly making her uncomfortable. How can it not be?
"Woman, you said it yourself. The one who assaulted you isn't me but someone who looked just like me - if that's even possible, so why does the two of you blaming me for this? You know what? That's not the only thing that is seriously wrong with this situation."
"First of all, I came from the lower realms. I just got into the Divine Realm for less than two years ago. You told me that this event happened during your childhood so that rules me out of the suspects - aside from the fact that I look just like your molester according to your statement. If you want proof of my claims, then ask Senior Brother Henry, he will confirm it you himself. That's a straight evidence right there."
"Second, you approached me asking me to return something to you." Raven stated, "At first I was confused since I don't know what you want, on top of that you and your sister kept throwing shit at me for reasons I am oblivious of. Now that you told me this, it made me realize something."
"Are you seriously asking someone to return your virginity back to you?" Raven asked in a strange manner, trying his absolute best to not scoff or anything due to the sheer stupidity of this question.
Pyra looked as is there nothing more she wanted right now other than to vanish in to thin air or be swallowed by the ground beneath her, never to emerge again. She was too embarrassed and ashamed, specially since Raven pointed these things out in a very blunt manner.
"Goddamn. What a day!" Raven felt exhausted. Its not even noon and yet he felt as if he's already prepared to take a long sleep. What a situation this was. He felt his energy being sapped away by a mysterious force right after he heard the ridiculous reason as to why these twins are so antagonistic towards him.
"Out with woman. Tell me the whole story. Even though I can sense that I have nothing to do with it, who knows, maybe you can surprise me. Go ahead."
"Do I really need to?" She asked.
"You don't. But if you don't want me to escalate this matter out of this room then you better be." Raven stated, "You've seen the power and influence of the sect. If they wanted to make investigations, I could always lead them towards my home in the lower realms. They could speak with my family and all, giving me solid proof against your baseless claims. You've read the rules of the sect, this is clearly a violation that will earn both of you a bad record, who knows maybe it's even enough for an expulsion."
"Either way, the choice is yours." Raven laid out his cards. It was extremely obvious that he's just about done with this conversation and doesn't care about what the opposite party felt anymore.
He couldn't believe that he was antagonized that badly because of baseless accusations. The situation was incredibly ridiculous that he couldn't even find it to himself to laugh under this circumstances.
Pyra looked up, biting her lips while tears were threatening to fall from the corners of her eyes. However the palpable coldness and irritation on Raven's face was so intimidating, causing her cower and sigh in defeat. A few moments passed and Pyra released yet another sigh, this time she started talking.
"Me and my sister were born at the Extreme Violet Great World." She stated, "We are descendants of the Extreme Violet Clan, which is the Rulers of the said world."
"In an unfortunate event however, the Extreme Violet Clan was wiped out. The reason behind this is because our mother eloped with someone from the enemy clan. The Crimson Demon Clan. Our mother was captured by the clan elders and was returned to the clan pregnant with twins which is us."
"When they found out the identity of our father, most of the elders voted for us to be killed the moment we are born. Of course, our mom was against it but what can she do?"
"Then comes our birth." She paused, gritting her teeth before continuing: "They wanted to go according to the plan however, something happened that caused them to hesitate."
"The moment we were born, an auspicious sign appeared from the skies. My sister, Mira was born with a physique that our clan was waiting for, for a very long time - the Extreme Violet Physique. If she was by herself, even if our father was from the enemy clan, our elders would most likely rescind the kill order and would groom her to be the next clan leader without a moment of hesitation."
"However, I was with her. In fact, I was born first." Pyra smiled sadly, "When I was born, an auspicious sign appeared. A silhouette of the Crimson Demon, something that the Extreme Violet Clan dreaded. I was blessed with the Crimson Demon Instincts, and if I was born on the Crimson Demon Clan, I would become their Holy Lady and most certainly be married to someone who carried a high density of our bloodline."
"The situation became extremely severe, the camps was spilt. All of them planned on sparing Mira since she's already seen as the clan's possession - someone who will lead the clan towards greatness. The problem was me. They either wanted to kill me right away or use me, making me a tool against the Crimson Demon Clan, if their plan succeeded, then the enemy clan will be wiped out by my hands and the elders will kill me afterwards. Either way, I was destined to not live a long life since I was born on the enemy clan."
"The situation escalated though. Unknowingly, the Crimson Demon Clan planted spies within the Extreme Violet Clan, and these people reported my existence to them. And just like the opposite clan, the Crimson Demon Clan too was waiting for someone to emerge with the Crimson Demon Instincts. Imagine their reaction when they heard that their enemy clan is decided my fate right? Of course they were incensed, and they didn't waste any time to invade and take me away from that place."
"A massive war ensued. The reason was us. In the end, both clans ended up destroying each other badly enough for some few stragglers to swoop in and thoroughly wipe them off. How laughable was that? Oh, our parents didn't survive that war just so you know."
"What's funny is that, they were too busy killing each other that they've completely forgotten about us. In the end, someone took us away from that place. She was a servant from the Extreme Violet Clan, who managed to survive the whole event. She ran away with her own convictions, thinking that we two, regardless of what bloodlines we were carrying, were innocent and should never be included in the matters of the adults."
"She was close to our birth mother, and in order to repay our mother's kindness, she decided to raise us by herself. She's also the one who named us since the clans were too busy killing each other for that." Pyra's tone was overflowing with sarcasm when she said this.
"She used to dye our hair black in attempts of hiding our identities. She had no way of leaving the Extreme Violet Great World therefore she could only do her best protect us. All she wanted was for us to grow up and have normal lives, away from the bloodshed and schemes of the adults. Unfortunately, it wasn't fated."
"We used to have a lot of friends growing up. Even though I am technically the older one, it was Mira who always protected me." Pyra paused, clearly hesitating before deciding to continue: "However, Mira felt vulnerable as well. Our adoptive mother never really hid our true lineage from us. Of course, we were young back then and we didn't understand many things. However we understood that if our secrets are out, then we would be in a very difficult situation."
"Mira is strong, but she's not invulnerable. She needed someone to comfort her as well. She's just as afraid as I am, and clearly I wasn't enough to reassure her that everything's going to be okay."
Pyra then looked at Raven straight in the eye and said: "She fell in love. Hard, mind you. She was so deep into it that she got careless and revealed the fact that we dye our hairs black consistently and she even told him our hair colors."
"It was due to that, that hell finally caught up to us."
