I Became the Twin Sister of the World’s Strongest Person (2)
“Kyahaha!”
Raphael waved her hands with a radiant smile.
In her small baby hands, a pale pink aura—mana that perfectly matched the color of her eyes—swirled gently.
And then, something appeared in Sanael’s eyes.
Red, blue, green, and silver.
Human-shaped figures glowing in each color appeared above Raphael.
They were the highest-ranking spirits contracted with the female protagonist.
…Right. She was that overpowered protagonist who was born already contracted with the Spirit Kings.
They waved at Raphael once before melting into the air and disappearing.
“Princesses! Are you alright?!”
“W-what was that enormous flame just now?! Could it be the princess…?!”
Amid the noisy voices of the servants, Sanael wore a serious expression.
Something felt off.
Why are there only four Spirit Kings?
Red—Ifrit, the Spirit King of fire and destruction.
Blue—Undine, the Spirit King of water and abundance.
Green—Tierra, the Spirit King of plants and earth.
Silver—Sylphid, the Spirit King of wind and sky.
And the last one.
Shade, the Spirit King of darkness and the moon.
There was no black figure.
…Where did it go?
“Oh my! Look at the two princesses.”
“They’re holding hands and never letting go.”
“So adorable!”
As they said, Sanael was holding Raphael’s hand.
Because—
I need to stay near her in case assassins show up.
After their first encounter with assassins, Sanael quickly calculated the safest place.
The safest place for her was—
Right next to the heroine.
“Bwaaah!”
KWA-AAAAAANG!
And as always, the day began with chaos.
A new servant suddenly summoned ten magical spears and launched them toward the princesses.
“Not on my watch!”
“Protect the princesses!”
The nanny and servants calmly layered multiple barriers.
“What?!”
Another assassin attempted a surprise attack on Sanael—
But—
“Uwaaaah!”
Raphael’s sudden cry released a surge of blue energy that bound the attackers.
“Gaaah!”
CRACK…!
They were completely frozen.
The next day—
“By the royal bloodline! Die!”
KWA-GA-GA-GANG!
“Gyaaah!”
And the day after—
“Please die! Princess Raphael, Princess Sanael!”
Fwoooosh!
“Kyahhh!”
And the day after that—
“Monsters!”
“Why?! Why won’t you die?!”
“Kyahaha!”
At this point, Raphael seemed to treat assassin attacks like entertainment—fire shows, ice shows, earth shows.
Terrifying. The heroine’s power is absurd.
However, even after that, the Spirit King of Darkness never appeared.
Unlike the original story where Raphael freely used dark attribute magic, she never once used it.
Sanael found this unsettling.
But I have no way to find out why.
She sighed and looked around the ruined room.
Maybe this body I reincarnated into… was originally a character who died early.
A reasonable guess.
With so many factions trying to eliminate Raphael, it wouldn’t be strange if she got caught in an accident and died.
So what should she do now?
Obviously—escape the royal palace!
For now, sticking with the heroine was safe.
But if they were separated someday—
That would be dangerous.
She resolved to leave when the timing was right.
Just then—
“Alright, Princess Kanna. The second princess is perfectly fine. No abnormalities at all.”
A woman in glasses removed her hand from Raphael’s forehead.
She was a healer from the Mage Tower.
“I’ll also check your mana levels.”
She placed her hand on Raphael, and after a moment, spoke with a serious expression.
“Princess Raphael’s mana capacity is currently 5th circle… but her potential is 8th circle or even higher.”
“…What?! 8th circle?!”
Everyone gasped.
A 1st circle mage was a beginner.
A 5th circle mage was high-tier.
An 8th circle mage was among the world’s strongest.
And above that—
9th circle.
A level said to be equal to divinity.
Only one person in the world was known to reach it:
King Grandeel de Skadi.
…And apparently now there are two.
“The sheer amount of mana almost swallowed me whole.”
The healer looked shaken.
The servants murmured in awe.
“As expected of King Grandeel’s bloodline…”
“She may truly become the next king…”
Then the nanny stepped forward.
“Next is Princess Sanael.”
The healer placed her hand on Sanael.
Warm mana flowed in.
Sanael is Raphael’s twin sister, so maybe at least 3rd or 5th circle?
She smiled confidently.
“Given her resemblance to the king, she must have strong mana too.”
At that moment—
“…Hm?”
The healer frowned.
“What… is this?!”
Her face turned pale.
“W-what is it? Does she also have enormous mana?!”
“No…”
“Then what?!”
“…There is none.”
Silence fell.
“Excuse me?”
“There is no mana at all. Her mana circuit is completely inactive.”
Everyone froze.
“What…?”
Sanael’s mouth dropped open.
I… have no mana? Not even a drop?
“I’m sorry… but it seems she is a Publico…”
The word struck everyone like lightning.
Publico.
A person without mana.
A “commoner,” like a “muggle.”
I’m a Publico?! Are you kidding me?!
Her escape plan shattered instantly.
“Onni! Onniii!”
Over a year had passed.
“Onni!”
“Oh my, Princess Raphael! You love your sister that much?”
“Onni! Hehe!”
“Not even Mama or Papa, but your first word is ‘sister’… how adorable.”
Raphael crawled around energetically.
Then she turned her head.
And saw it.
A baby with short black hair, a navy ribbon, and golden eyes.
Sanael.
“Onniiiii!”
Raphael rushed forward at full speed.
Sanael frantically crawled away.
Huff, huff!
She climbed onto a low table.
Left alone, Raphael began to cry loudly.
“Waaah! Onniii…!”
Sigh.
Her heart softened, but Sanael steeled herself.
She clings, bites, hugs nonstop… I need freedom too!
“Waaaahhh!”
As the crying intensified, a servant appeared.
“Oh dear, Princess Raphael!”
Wilbur, a young servant boy, helped care for the twins.
“Who made our princess cry? …Ah. Princess Sanael again.”
Wilbur was kind but completely misunderstood Sanael’s feelings.
“Now now, Princess Sanael. Your sister wants to play with you.”
“Nooo!”
“Hey! You’re the older sister!”
Sanael resisted, but it was useless.
“Ehehe! Onni.”
“…Haah.”
In the end, Raphael grabbed her and covered her in drool and wrinkles her dress.
Even if staying next to her is safest, this is too much!
So Sanael decided—
I’ll train myself!
She started practicing walking.
“Ah! S-Sanael is standing!”
“She’s walking!”
And finally—
She escaped Raphael’s grasp and walked away.
But—
“Waaah!”
Raphael cried—
And suddenly—
“Huh?! She floated?!”
She flew into the air.
And charged.
“Onniiiii!”
BAM!
They collided head-first.
