I Became A System

What should I call Matilda? Evil Mother? Nah... Ellena's life was not like Cinderella's. Perhaps... fake mother. Sighs... I don't know anymore.

It is said that the mother knows the best, or the mother should be the one who loves her child the most since she carried them in her womb. But this one right now doesn't belong to the category of being a mother.

Yeah, maybe she has a reason. But she just doubted her own child. The one that after her birth, she immediately neglected her because of some... belief?

I don't have any judgments to beliefs or any cultural beliefs. But... this isn't just a belief, it's about their child. That should be the one that goes first other than anything. It's just a belief and even not proven.

Just how stupid they can be? How?! I can't fathom them. Why would they really survive in this world?

Okay, let's say that they also suffered things... But an innocent baby? I don't know!

And even right now... she's really this worst. Can't recognize her own child... That's shit. It was just even a year, how can she not recognize her own flesh and blood.

"So you were my niece too?" Matilda asked.

Why is this even happening? Please don't make me suffer anymore.

"Yes..."

"So, who's a child are you? It's my first time seeing you."

Ellena couldn't answer that. She also knew that so it was lucky for us that Amber took over the talk.

"Oh... she was a child of one of my uncles. But you know aunt, your jewelry is really beautiful, it really suits you." Amber started flattening Matilda.

It was also successful since Matilda shifted her attention to Amber.

"Of course, it was built by a famous artisan. You also look good with your dress, Amber."

Amber smiled then look back at Ellena. She winked at her signing that she'll take over the talk.

That was really helpful. I don't even know how to dodge that bitch's questions.

Oh... Since Ellena wants to hide her identity, I know that she doesn't want to have difficult matters to fix.

Ellena still doesn't know how to manage this kind of situation. Maybe some hysterical events she can, but being plastic or fake? Nah. She's still had plenty of things to learn.

After Amber talking with that bitch, they finally did what they came for. It was recruiting Diana, the ungrateful sister.

Why do I call her an ungrateful sister? Perhaps it was not because of saving her life...

I know, she was just a child. But can't she have matured?... I was expecting her to show some attention to Ellena. But she didn't.

Okay, she really was a child. So, I just have to forget about this... I hope so.

"Let's meet Diana," Amber said.

"Amber, I have something to ask."

"What is it?"

"Is Isabella will be included in this third-generation group?"

It was also successful since Matilda shifted her attention to Amber.

"Of course, it was built by a famous artisan. You also look good with your dress, Amber."

Amber smiled then look back at Ellena. She winked at her signing that she'll take over the talk.

That was really helpful. I don't even know how to dodge that bitch's questions.

"Let's meet Diana," Amber said.

"Amber, I have something to ask."

"What is it?"

"Is Isabella will be included in this third-generation group?"

However, before she could answer her, Amber called out some familiar face.

"Diana," Amber called the kid.

"B-big Sister Amber?" She replied with a shocked tone. "Thank you for coming!" She rushed the n hugged Amber.

She was obviously delighted to see Amber.

After breaking their embrace, Diana looked at Ellena and Isabella. She was surprised at first then returned to be composed.

What's her problem? Did she just recognize Ellena? No... it's impossible. Even her mother didn't recognize her with a slight change in hair. It's also impossible for her.

"Who are they?" Diana finally asked.

"I'll introduce you to our relative. This is Noelle and her sister Isabella." Amber started introducing them to Diana.

Diana, on the other hand, made a strange expression. What I call strange is that she was saddened a little. I know it's not that strange but for her to feel that towards a stranger? I don't know.

"Sister?..." She mumbled in a perplexed tone.

"Oh, Amber!" A voice of a man came from afar.

A few moments later, the man who called them appeared to be a man in his 40's. He was wearing flamboyant attire for nobles...

Yeah... it's Ellena's father. He still has that annoying face, I presume, he was also pressuring Diana with that eyes. I can still remember what he did when the library burned into ashes.

That father looked at Ellena and as expected, he didn't recognize her.

"May I ask who is this young lady right here?" He asked Amber.

"I'm Noelle." The one that answered was Ellena. "Noelle Lumbert." She continued.

"Hm... are you perhaps my niece or my sibling? I can't tell."

Sibling? Really? It only made me question what type of person is this Grandpa. It made me think of him as a womanizer instead of inhuman or something.

"She's your niece. She really came from overseas so she's still not familiar with things." Amber said.

"Oh... Overseas... I am really intrigued by your appearance because of your beauty but I wanted to have my daughter a time to celebrate with her peers, I hope you have a good time." He uttered before leaving.

Did he just respectfully say those words? I don't know! He seems to be different from what I remember.

Ugh... nobles. I forgot that they are the best actors since they socialize with different people often.

"Diana. Can we have a private talk? It's about why we came here." Amber finally initiated the plan. At last!

Even she was confused, Diana just nods hesitantly before guiding them to her room.

They passed through the hall of the mansion then head towards the rooms. Eventually, they reached a certain room then got inside.

It was Diana's room. I must say, her room is simple. No other decorations but a simple medieval style of a room.

They sat on a bed and Diana took spare chairs for Ellena and Isabella to sit on.

She still has these eyes of looking at Ellena back and forth but I didn't pay more attention to it. It's just a normal action when having a stranger in your surrounding.

"I will get to the point. Grandma wants you to study immediately." Amber said.

"Why? I was just starting my high school curriculum. What's the matter."

"We have to kill someone." After Amber said that, Diana and Isabella were shocked. At their gasp, Ellena and Amber just sighed.

"K-kill? As in, murder?" Diana asked hesitantly.

"Big Sister? You're going to kill someone?" Isabella asked.

This may be an insignificant matter, but I just saw Diana made another depressed eye.

"Yes... but I'm still not sure how." Ellena answered.

"Now, going back. Since Diana is still a minor, she won't be included in our group. We just want you to prepare."

"Why? Why would you tell me that?" Diana asked.

"It's because it's important. Now, I won't tell you the other information, but I want you to obey Grandma's words."

But the next things are not what I expected. The person I thought who's empty and depressed, just laughed. She laughed out loud while pushing her stomach as if everything was really funny.

W-what?... She's crazy!

"What? You're telling me that you can't tell me other things? Why? Because of Granma's orders? Is it also the reason why sister Ellena disguised herself?"

What?! How did she know? Even her parents had a hard time recognizing her!

"H-how?" Obviously, Ellena was also surprised.

And that matter, I heard Amber muttered something. "I thought it was strange. So Ellena really changed her appearance."

"Why? Why are you acting like you're someone?!" Diana insanely asked with her voice were over the roof for shouting.

"I-I'm not your sister." Ellena denied but it was too late and unbelievable.

"Big Sister?! Why did you leave me?!"

...

What? Ellena? Did she not know the matters? I thought she was hiding from Ellena? That's why Ellena, was just an invisible person.

"What are you talking about?" Ellena finally composed herself into that question.

"Why did you left me in this hell? Why..."

Ellena just sighed before standing up. "I'm not really your sister.. So can you please stop that?" She said before going out of the room, leaving everyone baffled.
