PFC Chapter 284 Twins
Chapter 284 Twins
"Why, Sister Freya...why..."
Catherine was already in a trance due to the successive shocks. She had no idea what she was saying and just kept asking questions.
Freya tilted her head, as if she was very confused about Catherine's question - "Are you unhappy? I can hear that you don't like them and they cause you trouble, little Catherine."
"And, do you know what they came to me to tell me?" Freya couldn't help giggling as she recalled the twins' confident speeches that day and the future they envisioned.
"Freya——"
Catherine did not speak. It was the other head on Freya's shoulder that sobbed and said, "You scared her..."
"Did I ask you to talk? Shut up! Shut up!!"
Freya's voice became crazy again. She didn't know where she had learned the vulgar curses, and now she was not stingy with using the most vicious words to curse the sister who lived with her, until there was no other voice in the underground except hers.
"You know more than just healing magic..." Catherine murmured as she looked at the magic patterns all over the ground.
"It is a blessing from light, little Catherine." Freya smiled and patiently corrected her again. "I am a saint. I can do what other gods can do."
"I have been here since I was born, little Catherine. What else can I do besides studying and researching these things every day?" During the countless lonely years in the tower, the only behavior she could do without being stopped or corrected was studying.
Yes, how could she forget? Freya was recognized as a person favored by God since birth. Her talent surpassed most of those favored by God. No wonder these two brothers are obviously very skilled but... They seemed to have never expected that the savior saint would suddenly attack?
——Catherine clenched her teeth to stop them from chattering. She turned her head away, trying not to look at the body sewn together on the stone platform.
"Why, Sister Freya, is it because they trespassed into your Shining Moon Tower? They are princes from a neighboring country and guests of Uncle George—"
"I don't like them..." Freya muttered, and walked to the stone platform regardless of the sticky blood stains on the ground. Ice crystals formed from under her hands, slowly covering the stone platform and the body.
"You didn't kill my god Da, did you? I was counting on her to help me find suitable jars to store my new collection." Freya's tone was as light as if she was discussing the weather with Catherine.
Catherine glanced at the shelf in front of her, where the old goddess was soaking. "You said she fell to her death."
"Did I say that? Well, that's why it can't be wasted. Her body has given me many experiences and inspirations, and I'll use them this time." Freya didn't mind the ice crystals freezing her hands at all, and touched them lovingly.
"Why do they..." Freya's voice suddenly turned cold. "They are so perfect, Catherine. Why? They obviously don't believe in the God of Light, but they have perfect bodies. And for me, everyone says that I am the daughter kissed by the Father God."
Why? They were both twins, but they were so healthy, agile, and free? And they dared to come in front of her and shout?
"Then you're going to sew them together? Like..." Catherine's stomach began to churn again. Her words made the other head on Freya's shoulder turn and look at her sadly.
"I'm just trying, little Katherine." Freya's voice was innocent -
"Remember those clocks you gave me? I asked you if I could take them apart, and you said the fun part wasn't taking them apart, that was easy, but the cool part was taking them apart and putting them back together.
I took it apart and put it back together. But it still broke." Freya's tone was full of regret. "You don't know how many tubes there are in the human body. I'm so tired of connecting them..."
She didn't treat people as human beings at all - Catherine trembled again, she felt dizzy and almost unable to stand, but she didn't want to touch anything here.
"At first..." Freya placed her hand on one of the twins' faces, "He was in good condition. I kept blessing him with light, and he even had the strength to beg for mercy."
"But this one—" She put her hand on the other face, which was even grayer, "This one stopped making any movement on the third day. He was still calling for mom before that. Poor little thing..."
Catherine felt even more upset when she heard this. Even though she hated the twins, she never thought they would end up like this.
"After this one died, the other one also started to fail a few days later. Why do you think that is, little Catherine? I have been treating him the whole time." Freya had a serious and inquiring expression on her face, as if she really wanted to discuss it with Catherine.
"This means that this is a meaningless experiment, and... it goes against human ethics and the law." Catherine's heart was beating like a drum. She seemed to have guessed Freya's intention.
Upon hearing this, Freya stopped stroking the ice crystals, slowly raised her head, and glanced at Catherine coldly.
“Hmph—” She sneered, “You’re scared, little Catherine.”
"I'm just concerned about your safety—"
"You don't care about me! You never pity me!" Freya fell into hysterics again. "You are just worried about this, this disgusting thing that is parasitic on me! Do you think I can't see it? The only one you have truly sympathized with and cared about over the years is her! A monster that doesn't even deserve a name!"
The other head that was always silent was secretly shedding tears again. She didn't dare to look at Catherine and just turned her head away.
"…She's not a disgusting thing." Catherine took a deep breath. "She's your sister, but you want to kill her?"
She had already seen that everything Freya did was just an experiment to see if she could survive on her own if she abandoned her twin sister.
