Shoujo Grand Summoning

In the human village.

"Excuse me..."

Flan tugged the sleeve of an aunty who was out buying groceries.

"Have you seen Flan's brother?"

"Flan's brother?"

The aunty gasped.

"Who is Flan's brother?"

"Flan's onii-chan is..."

Flan continued.

"Onii-chan is Flan's onii-chan."

The aunty bitterly laughed as if she understood the situation.

"Sorry, missy, I can't help you find Flan's brother."

"Oh..."

Flan is slightly saddened but she continued to flag down another passerby.

"I am sorry, have you seen Flan's Onii-chan?"

"Who is that?"

"Flan's Onii-chan..."

"..."

Patchouli, Remilia, and Sakuya followed Flan but they didn't intervene. They watched over her as she continued seeking for clues on her brother.

Flan is still acting like a normal kid at her mental age. She isn't someone who would kill indiscriminately now.

With her current method, it would be a miracle if she could find Onii-chan like this.

"Sakuya and Patchouli."

Remilia clenched her fists.

"Does Flan look strangely normal to you?"

"Young lady."

Sakuya is also happy to see this but she could read the anxiety on Remilia's face.

"The second Ojou-sama is normal, it would appear..."

"Is that so?"

Remilia is happy to see this too.

"That means we don't have to lock her up anymore, right?"

"I..."

Sakuya was cut off by Patchouli.

"We can't confirm it yet."

"Patchouli-sama."

Sakuya gasped.

"Patchouli."

Remilia was nervous.

"What do you mean by that?"

"It is evident."

patchouli continued.

"She is still a kid in mentality. We can't be sure yet."

Patchouli warned.

"And, she is talking about a brother we don't know, can't you see the problem in this?"

Anyone would be shocked to see a relative who is always kept in the house, suddenly talking about a brother they've never met.

Something must have happened to Flan.

It is also likely the reason why she overcame her vampiric weaknesses.

"Patchouli, you don't mean..."

Remilia stuttered.

"Someone sneaked into the mansion without our knowledge and interacted with Flan?"

"I don't think it is normal interaction."

Patchouli nodded.

"He has likely spent a lot of time to cure her weaknesses and teach her maturity."

"Patchouli-sama, there are few who could bypass our detection."

Sakuya frowned.

"Even among them, I highly doubt there is anyone who knows so much about vampires and healing that he could cure vampiric weaknesses."

Remilia and Patchouli stayed silent.

If someone could do this, Remilia would have begged for that person to come.

Even if she had to kneel, it was better than locking her younger sister up for 495 years.

"It is useless to speculate."

Patchouli looked at Flan.

"We should get the clues from Imouto-sama and help her."

"Ojou-sama, it would be better to do so."

"Since the second Ojou-sama appears to have been in frequent contact with this "onii-chan" guy, we should be able to get some clues if we ask her."

Remilia acquiesced with a nod.

"True."

Remilia grabbed Flan's hand.

"Flan."

"What is it, onee-chan?"

Flan turned around with a pout.

"Flan is not coming back without Onii-chan."

"You..."

"Remi!"

Patchouli approached after sighing.

"Let me do this."

Remilia tried to intervene.

"Imouto-sama."

Patchouli got down to eye level.

"Can you tell me who is this Onii-chan?"

"Flan already explained."

Flan feels that they're just buying time and delaying her work.

"Onii-chan is onii-chan!"

"We won't understand if that's your only clue."

Patchouli patiently urged her to go on.

"Give us more to work on, we can help locate your onii-chan."

Flan's eyes lit up.

"Everyone's going to help me find Onii-chan?"

Remilia is a little jealous that Flan is this giddy over the prospect of meeting Onii-chan.

"Is that Onii-chan more important than her sister?"

"Imouto-sama, tell us, is there anything special about Onii-chan? Maybe we can try finding based on that?"

Patchouli thought about it.

"Okay, what does Onii-chan look like?"

Flan gave it a serious thought, she tilted her head with a serious look.

"Onii-chan has the same eyes as Flan."

"Same eyes?"

Remilia and Sakuya noted down the red eyes they had while thinking about the possible candidates in Gensokyo.

"And?"

"And..."

Flan bit her thumb.

"The same smell as Flan!"

"Same smell?"

Remilia and Sakuya flinched. Patchouli also couldn't stop this revelation from surprising herself.

"Okay, what do you mean by that?"

"Mnn..."

Flan couldn't wrap her head around the concept.

"Onii-chan said that Flan and him are of the same type of... Existence?"

"Same existence."

Sakuya, Patchouli, and Remilia exchanged curious looks.

"Yes."

Flan yelled out as she recalled something important.

"Onii-chan said that he is the True Ancestor of vampires."

"What was that?!"

The trio couldn't stop but be agitated.

"That cannot be. The True Ancestors are extinct."

"Gosh!"

Flan pouted.

"You think Flan is lying?"

"No... But..."

"Okay, Remi..."

Patchouli shushed Remilia.

"Imouto-sama, come back to the Red Devil Mansion with us."

"No!"

Flan got stubborn.

"I am going to find Onii-chan."

"Exactly, we can do that there."

Patchouli explained.

"We have a lot of books back home. We can find more details and clues if we carefully read the contents there, don't you think so?"

"I..."

Flan isn't sure about this.

"Are you guys really going to help Flan find Onii-chan?"

Patchouli and Sakuya nodded. Meanwhile, Remilia turned her head to the side with slight annoyance.

Flan nodded.

"Okay..."

Remilia, Patchouli, and Sakuya sighed in relief.
