Chapter 11: Strange person
Cussing to himself, Rain took a closer look at Liana's status.
__________________________
[Name: Liana Winderline]

[Attitude: Brother is so pathetic, but it makes me love him even more????~]
__________________________
Not only did Liana have an abnormally high cultivation for her years, but she had also achieved a terrifying 50% development of the bloodline, compared to which, the achievements of her sister, a recognized genius, could only be described as mediocre.
'What was the point of hiding her accomplishments that could have instantly brought her immense fame and resources?'
After thinking about it for a bit, Rain came to the conclusion that the reason might be her personality.
The two twin sisters were born at the same time, but despite this Eliana was always considered the older sister. The reason for this was her active and ambitious character, which she showed very early on.
Liana, not as bright and distinguished as her older sister, was always in her shadow. She never minded that, preferring to spend her time with her sister or alone.
'But what the hell about her attitude towards me?'
This was the fifth time he'd reread it and his gut still twitched.
Liana saw Rain the same way her sister did, but they had completely opposite reactions. One despised him intensely, while the other had strange feelings bordering on insanity. Worst of all, he couldn't find a single reason for her special treatment of Rain.
'She doesn't have any weird fetishes, does she?'
Rain desperately tried to find some clues or explanations in the memories.
Unfortunately, other than shared childhood memories, there was almost nothing that connected them. He kept rewinding it, looking for any detail that might help him, only to come to the conclusion that even their childhood was nothing special.
Rain took another look at Liana, who was following her sister with a helpless expression on her face, occasionally trying to break free of her grip to no avail.
'She plays her part too well.'
That was the first thing that came to his mind when Rain saw it.
Neither during their sparring, nor during their brief interaction, did he notice a hint of falseness or anything out of the ordinary about her.
The naturalness with which she behaved confused Rain. He had to admit that it was much easier to deal with girls like Eliana who said what they thought than with those whose motives he didn't even understand.
As the two twin sisters disappeared from his sight, Rain brushed those thoughts away.
'Sooner or later I would strip her naked and learn all her secrets. For now, I had to focus on the purpose of my coming to this place.'
Rain picked up the first sword he could find and tried the best sword technique he knew from his past life. After doing about ten strokes, he got two pieces of news.
The good one was that the proportions and body structure were identical to his previous one, from which he didn't have to re-adapt all his skills. The bad was that this body was pretty weak.
Usually, after the Novice Ascendant stage, where the body strengthens and gains superhuman strength, even a minimal amount of training will be enough to keep it in perfect condition. But Rain hadn't been training at all lately, and his body wasn't able to keep up with the normal workload.
The upcoming trials of the academy and the fight by Gray, who is most likely one of the heroes of this world, only made things more complicated.
Although Rain had his own ways to defeat the hero, he didn't plan on losing the battle either. So he started looking for a solution in the system's store. And soon he found the right item.
[Peak Potion]
[Helps you get back into your peak physical shape quickly]
[500 SP]
Without hesitation, Rain spent points, knowing it was the best item for him right now.
Seeing his steal points disappear literally before his eyes, Rain felt no regret. On the contrary, anticipation was bubbling up in him at the realization that he would soon have to work hard to earn a new batch of points.
Once again commending himself for being so committed to his cause, Rain glanced at the object in his hand.
It was a small vial, this time filled with a green liquid.
Rain drank it in a volley and felt an incredible warmth spread through his body, making it heat up quickly. Grabbing his sword, he began to repeat the same movements as before.
Rain still couldn't perfectly replicate his best technique, but he could feel the progress with each stroke, so he continued to persevere.
A couple hours later, sweat was dripping off him as Rain stood almost powerless, leaning on his sword. Finished practicing, he waited for the system that was about to return with his rewards.
Soon Rain did hear something, but it wasn't the system or even words.
*Pant Pant Pant*
Rain heard the sound of someone's rapid breathing. When he turned his head, his body, tired as it was, instinctively assumed a defensive posture.
Two meters away from him, stood a woman, with heavy breathing and flushed cheeks looking at his embossed body, showing through his sweat-soaked shirt.
Following the shock of her sudden appearance, a second came at once, caused by the beauty of the uninvited guest.
Her dark obsidian-colored hair fell to her shoulders and framed her face, a stark contrast to her flawless white skin. Her blazing amber eyes and captivating smile further accentuated the beauty of her face, bringing it to perfection.
The only thing that could overshadow that beauty was her hourglass-shaped physique, with large breasts heaving with heavy breathing and massive hips that were well accentuated by the tight leggings.

The look she was giving Rain was by no means normal.
It was like a hungry wolf staring at its prey. And with each passing second, the last shreds of rationality disappeared from her eyes.
'Judging from the fact that I couldn't sense her presence, she was many times stronger than me.'
That fact, along with her behavior, brought up only one thought in Rain's mind.
'Would I really get eaten by a hot Mommy on my first day in another world?'
