I Became the Younger Brother of the Female Protagonist in the Novel

Chapter 4

Viscount Rose blamed his own weakness and eventually had to send his daughter to the Speyone family.

rattle.

“This is it.”

Hans stared intently at Kayneth, who guided him to the room, and soon wondered, ‘Is this a man suitable for the lady? … I’ll have to check it out for myself.’ I immediately went into the room with Elizabeth.

* * *

“Mirva, I’ll ask for refreshments and drinks.”

I asked Mirva, the maid, with a gentle smile. Then, as usual, Mirva bowed her head in a professional manner.

“Yes, please wait.”

As soon as Mirva left the guest room, I immediately met Elizabeth’s eyes.

A girl with a red face.

Certainly looks play a part. If you do well, you might be able to enter the Rose family as a son-in-law.

“Kuhm… … .”

As I stared at Elizabeth, a butler named Hans, standing behind her, cleared her throat slightly.

“Today is a time for you two to get to know each other. If you two have any questions for each other, please let me know.”

Is it because he is still a 7-8 year old child? Hans led the conversation like a moderator who arranged a blind date.

And as Elizabeth hesitated, I asked the questions that had been in my head beforehand.

What would you ask if you were to ask someone who was invited?

I have moderate hobbies or likes or dislikes food, etc. We exchanged conversations by asking simple questions.

And when the topic moved to talk about magic, which Elizabeth has been interested in lately, I put on a slightly admiring expression.

‘You mean you’ve already learned the first circle?’

No matter how basic it is, a 7-year-old girl has already formed a circle.

Considering her age, her talent was clearly outstanding.

“You are amazing. Certainly, in order to master the magic of the 1st circle, you must be able to manage the minimum amount of mana. Lady Elizabeth must be able to master the 1st Circle.”

“Oh that… … . thank you.”

Elizabeth’s proportion in the original work was quite small, but even in that short proportion, I received the impression of a sharp cat.

however… … Who the hell is that cute girl smiling shyly in front of me?

There was a huge gap between the image of Elizabeth I had imagined and the girl in front of me.

‘Please grow up like this now… … .’

I preferred a woman who was affectionate and kind rather than a cat-like sharp look.

If I had to become Daryl’s son-in-law anyway, I hoped that she would grow up to be a kind woman.

Did we talk like that for about 30 minutes?

The middle-aged butler who introduced himself as Hans raised his right hand with a stiff face.

“… … Excuse me.”

“Yes, what are you doing?”

“Why about magic… … Do you mind if I ask if you know that much detail?”

Could it be that he thought I was learning magic? Of course, I’m learning it, but there’s no need to reveal it right now.

“This annex also has a small library with over 500 books. Among them, I was a little interested in reading books related to magic. Ah, you don’t have to take my story too seriously, Lady. It is just knowledge recorded in books.”

He nodded his head in agreement and touched his chin for a moment.

‘No matter how much I learned through books, I can’t believe I have such a vast amount of knowledge… … .’

As the middle-aged butler named Hans thought for a moment, I let out a small sigh.

It is not a lie to say that I learned through books. However, books purchased with gold points… … . The contents of the skill book were just injected into his head.

As if it had been memorized, the sentences just popped into my head.

“I have no special talent for magic or swordsmanship. So I had no choice but to accumulate knowledge as much as possible.”

“The tutor… … .”

At Elizabeth’s question, I shook my head while maintaining a smile.

“I haven’t taken it in yet.”

“ah… … .”

In the Rose family, as soon as Elizabeth was seven years old, she immediately hired tutors to begin her numerous educations.

Originally, children of noble families received private education from tutors from the age of 6 to 12, and then entered the academy at the age of 13.

I guess I’ll just see it as an exception.

“Brother, I have prepared drinks and refreshments.”

“Okay, come in.”

With my permission, Mirva carefully set the refreshments and drinks on the table as soon as she entered the room.

At that moment, Elizabeth’s eyes began to twinkle.

Although they were abandoned in the annex, they did not enjoy a life of poverty to the point of lack of food. Rather, I was able to enjoy delicious refreshments and drinks to my heart’s content along with a hearty meal.

Of course, compared to the budget spent on the main building, the budget invested in the annex would be lower than that of the claws.

gulp.

Elizabeth opened her mouth small as she swallowed, and Hans cleared his throat slightly.

“Kuhm… … .”

“ah… … !”

Hans’ clearing of his cough startled her, and her shoulders twitched. He made eye contact with me, and soon lowered his head while dyeing his face red.

I said with a hearty smile at Elizabeth’s cute reaction.

“It’s okay to eat.”

“Well, then… … Just a bite… … .”

As she watched Hans, she quietly picked up a cookie.

Do I have to pay attention even when I eat a cookie?

I smiled bitterly at the sight of Hans staring at Elizabeth.

“I ask for your understanding, Mr. It’s the time when our age group likes these sweet treats the most.”

“… … Yes, excuse me.”

When Hans lowered his head slightly, I smiled and waved my hand.

“no.”

* * *

After three hours, Elizabeth and Hans were able to leave the annex.

The two started walking toward the main building of the Spey One family while being sent off by Kayneth.

Elizabeth, who was walking through the garden, looked up at Hans.

“… … how was it?”

“yes?”

“Kenneth Youngsik… … Are you really going to be my fiancé?”

“… … First of all it will. However, the Viscount said that he would marry the lady with someone else after repaying the entire amount borrowed from the Spay One family. so… … We have to watch now.”

“that… … I see.”

She looks a bit disappointed.

What the hell are you disappointed in?

Hans let out a small sigh and boarded the Rose family carriage with Elizabeth.

* * *

“ha… … . it’s hard.”

clap clap clap.

“Wonderful!”

“You really looked like an aristocrat. As expected, the maid’s special training… … .”

When the maids, who had been reluctant to even make eye contact with me until just a few months ago, changed their attitude like flipping their palms, I couldn’t help but smile awkwardly.

Mirva also stroked my hair with a warm smile, but originally, a maid was never allowed to stroke a nobleman’s hair. It’s just that, thanks to my frequent aegyo, the relationship we have now has developed.

“Brother, I have water in the bathtub.”

“Yeah~”

“It’s okay to let go of your words now. Because you are a noble.”

The maids also nodded in agreement at Mirva’s remark.

A noble using a courtesy to a maid… … .

If the main building finds out about this, the head maid or the head of the main building will punish the maids in the second annex building.

“… … Okay, I get it.”

I nodded and immediately followed Mirva to the bathroom.

Mirva helps me take a bath. Thanks to this, after taking a comfortable bath, I was able to lay down on the bed and rest.

like that… … The meeting with Elizabeth is over.

It was really a blink of an eye until I was 9 years old.

And as the New Year approaches, families… … No, I scratched my head at the news that people from my hometown had gone up to Jedo, and touched the book in front of me with my finger.

“By now, Sophia must have reached the lowest level of expert, right?”

The moment I heard the rumor that Sofia was learning swordsmanship, I was able to confirm that she had returned from the future.

If she had been a girl in her previous life, she would have had to learn the manners and various knowledge of an aristocrat while being scolded by her mother.

On the other hand, it seems that she is currently acquiring various knowledge and manners with her genius, and is training swordsmanship in her spare time.

“You must remember the basic swordsmanship you learned at the academy… … . It wouldn’t be difficult to reach the lowest level expert.”

For reference, swordsmanship ranges from expert to sword master to grand master, from lowest to highest.

A total of 15 stages were divided into stages.

Unlike magic, which is divided into 9 stages with the 1st to 9th circles.

‘It would have been amazing just to have reached the lowest level of Expert already, but I would have even signed a contract with the water spirit king Elim… … . It’s a great regression perk.’

No, can the contract with the Spirit King be regarded as a return benefit?

Anyway, Sophia should have been 10 years old by now.

“… … I have to hurry too.”

Having planned to subdue the bandits, I decided to leave the mansion for the first time in my life while the main building was empty.

First of all, I quickly took out the staff I hid under the bed, and it was a beginner’s staff I bought at the gold shop for 300 GP.

I sneaked out of the mansion and went into the forest behind the building of the second annex under the night sky.

Pussuk.

“Obviously here… … .”

From noble mtl dot com

A dog hole created over the course of several months.

The thickness of the castle wall was close to 3m, so it took quite a long time to make this dog hole.

And finally, when a dog hole that a child could enter appeared in the bushes, I crawled on the bottom of the coop and stuck my face into the hole and got out over the wall.

“Okay… … .”

Afterwards, I took a deep breath at the sight of the cliff unfolding in front of me, and tied a rope I had prepared in advance to a tree near the fortress wall to descend the 5m high cliff.

The view of the city is more distinct as you come down the cliff.

Is it because Spay One’s mansion is built on top of a hill?

I could see the whole city with my own eyes.

“… … For now, let’s hurry.”

Thanks to the preliminary investigation, I was able to go down to the city without any hesitation, and soon ran towards the mercenary guild.

profit.

I went inside the guild, which had turned into a tavern, with my entire body covered in a cloak, looked around, and immediately approached the bulletin board.

[Black Wolf Bandits]

-Bounty: Thorburn (Bounty: 8 gold coins)

-Voodoo: Dalton (Bounty: 1 gold coin)

-Raid Captain: Gourdel (Bounty: 80 silver coins)

…

If you subdue one large group of bandits, you can secure at least 8-9 gold coins.

It’s only 800 GP with gold points, but it’s an income that can be earned over 2-3 years by the standards of common people.

I realized once again that my living environment, which had been receiving 10 gold coins every month as pocket money, was special in many ways.

“Shouldn’t the wanted criminals be handed over to the guards?”

Currently, I was issued an F-rank mercenary plaque.

When the receptionist claimed that I was 13 years old, he checked my height with the naked eye, tilted his head a few times, and eventually issued me a mercenary plaque.

It must be possible because personal information about mercenaries was not so important in the era.

‘Near the southeast of the Bilk Mountains… … .’

ride, ride, ride.

After exiting the guild, I sprinted through the streets and moved straight to the stable.

“Who are you?”

“This is the person who bought the horse yesterday.”

The owner of the stable opened the door and looked down at me.

“… … Follow me.”

Is it because I’m a child?

Unsure of my identity, he put the horse at ease and ushered me into the stable.

“Is this enough?”
