Double Apocalypse, Sister’s Curse Begins

In my past life, Sophie had immediately set her sights on the snow python.

Together with our parents, she begged, threatened, and coerced me until I handed it over.

That left me with the fire fox, which cost me every last point I had. I had nothing left for survival gear.

Sophie, on the other hand, gained a top-tier snow python for free—and never spared me a single point to keep myself alive.

“Clara, could you give me the fire fox?”

Her different choice shocked me. That’s when I realized: Sophie had also been reborn.

Otherwise, why would she pick a fire beast, knowing the heat wouldn’t last long and eternal frost was coming?

I laughed.

“Why should I? It’s my priority choice. Why should I give it to you?”

“Clara! Sophie’s your sister. Can’t you let her have it?”

“That’s right, Clara. She’s your only sister, and she’s younger than you. What’s the harm in protecting her?”

I nearly laughed out loud. Was I not also their daughter?

“All my life I’ve had to give way. She’s younger, but I’m older—why can’t she yield to me for once? Even a child in Sunday school knows to share. And I earned my beast through years of hard work. Why should I give it up?”

For a moment, I had wondered if they might change, if I could give them one last chance as my parents. Clearly, that was pointless.

Sophie bit her lip in anger.

“Clara, are you trying to kill me? My grades aren’t good, and in this heat I can’t take some cold-blooded snake. Can’t you help me just this once?”

If I hadn’t seen her cruelty in my past life, I might almost have believed her.

Back then, she never spent a single point on the snow python. She let it wither, never evolve, until it finally died.

When the eternal frost came, she abandoned it entirely.

Even a top-tier beast had been wasted in her hands.

She and our parents eventually froze to death.

Meanwhile, with no points left, I had to throw myself into deadly system games to earn enough to feed the fire fox.

And while I struggled for him, Sophie seduced him.

In the end, the fire fox I had nearly died raising betrayed me. He left me in the snow to be torn apart by feral beasts.

Now, watching her lust after the fox again, I almost wanted to oblige her. Let’s see how she manages to raise this gold-devouring monster without me.

I instantly chose the snow python.

The moment I confirmed, the projection vanished.

A slender white snake appeared, coiling around my arm.

The temperature in the room dropped by ten degrees at once.

Sophie exhaled in relief when she saw I hadn’t picked the fire fox.

“Clara, I don’t have enough points for the fox. Can you use yours to get it for me?”

“No way. If I spend my points on him, I’ll have nothing left to survive.”

I tapped the little snake’s head. Its beady eyes blinked as its pink tongue flicked across my cheek.

I let it slither freely over me.

“My points could be split with you. That way our family would have two top-tier beasts. We’d all survive!”

What a tempting promise. In my past life, I believed it—and nearly died for it.

She never gave me a single point back then.

Finally, I said: “Fine, Sophie. Transfer all your points to me first. Whatever’s missing, Mom and Dad can cover. I’ll hold them as our family’s reserve fund for survival.”

“No!”

She refused instantly.

And our parents echoed her without thinking.

“So you expect me to spend all mine, but not you? Do you want me to run out of points and die?”

“Of course not. You’re my sister. I’ll help you.”

I was done looking at their hypocritical faces.

“If you want the fire fox, pay for him with your own points. Otherwise, I’ll abandon him and let someone else claim him.”

Sophie panicked but still resisted.

Only when I moved to click “abandon” did she break, transferring all three of their points to me.

With their resources in hand, I made the trade for her.

Then I shoved all three of them out of my room.

Sophie clutched the fox in her arms, thrilled with her prize.

She had no idea what kind of cost it would take to raise him.
