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

“Yes, and he said the name of the man who attacked you was ‘Cravey’.”

The Highness frowned at the unfamiliar name.

“Craveira… … . That’s a name I’ve never heard of.”

I guess so. Because he is not a noble of this empire.

I nodded once and added an additional explanation.

“It seems that this guy is called the Third Apostle in the organization of black magicians, Death Parade. Well, if it’s enough to be called an ‘apostle’, it would be correct to think of it as an executive level. And this is just a guess, but… … . I presume that the man named Crave is a warlock who has reached the level of the 6th Circle.”

“… … A demon tower master-class monster is an executive of an organization? Rather, did you manage to survive?”

I replied with a shrug of my shoulders.

“All I can say is that I was lucky. anyway… … My sister said she won’t be coming back to the academy for a while to dig behind them.”

“okay.”

The Highness smiled slightly relieved and bowed her head.

It sure seems like you have a sincere heart for your sister.

“Ah, more than that, be wary of the Spey One family.”

“… … What do you mean?”

To him, my remarks will be a bit embarrassing. My sister and I are the home of the Spey One family.

but… … .

“According to the conversation I had with Cravey, there is a possibility that an organization called Death Parade is related to the Spey One family.”

“… … Is it okay if you casually tell me about that?”

“Unfortunately, my sister and I do not consider the Spey One family to be the original family. Besides, calling such people parents is a bit like that.”

Ryard slightly furrowed his brow at my answer and let out a long sigh.

“… … It seems that thanks to your siblings, I am also involved in a troublesome case.”

“Do you like my sister? It is natural to risk your life for the woman you love. Isn’t it?”

In response to my mischievous smile, I raised my voice as if I was slightly irritated.

“I know that much too! but… … It would be quite annoying if the Spey One family were your opponent.”

You must have already confirmed through the information power of the Roxpell family that there is a family that cooperates with the black magician in Korea.

But he probably didn’t think that the Spey Ones were included among those families.

The Highness, perhaps shocked by my remark, bit her nails and closed her eyes for a moment.

I put the tableware down on the table as I watched, then opened my mouth.

“If you are the Roxpell family’s intelligence network, you will be able to find out more details.”

The Highness slowly opened her eyes and nodded her head several times.

“Okay, now I need to meet Rubelis first.”

“Even if we are rivals, we have to cooperate when we cooperate.”

“… … Don’t worry about other people’s love affairs. And Rubelis is my close friend!”

Cheer!

His Highness Lyard glared at me with a stinging gaze.

Seeing those eyes, I answered while raising the corner of my mouth.

“This is my older sister’s love story. As a younger brother, I think you need to take a good look at the person who is going to marry your sister.”

“… … Tsk. Rather than that, I should be able to go back to the academy the day after tomorrow.”

“Yes, thank you for your hard work, Your Highness.”

“Yes, thank you very much. How tired I was because of you… … .”

Seeing him brushing his teeth, I smiled awkwardly.

And once again, I bowed my head with the words of thanks.

Her Highness looked at the top of my head, sighed, and then turned around and walked away.

Tboob.

“Anyway, work hard today and tomorrow.”

“Yes, please enter carefully.”

“What’s going on… … . This is my home, man.”

“Ah, that’s it too.”

As he disappeared from sight, I crossed my arms for a moment, erasing my smile. Then, after crossing her legs, she looked at the pudding prepared for dessert.

“Hmm… … . What am I supposed to do from now on?”

-The plan… … wasn’t it?

I nodded my head with an awkward smile at Endairon’s tone of absurdity.

“We haven’t decided on the details of our plans after confirming that my sister is alive. Albert is doing well for the Ardennes Company, and the Knights of the Ardennes family are also strengthening their strength through combat training… … . It would be okay to go to and from the auction house as usual to accumulate funds. If there is a magical tool that can withstand pain, I would like to have one of those as well.”

-… … It must have been quite painful.

Hearing his murmur, I thought, ‘That’s what I mean…’ … I looked at Endairon with a face of ‘.’

“I almost lost my mind in the middle. To be honest, just having a conversation with Cravey while enduring the pain is truly amazing. Of course, the content of the conversation at the beginning was almost unconscious, but… … . Seriously, it would have been nice if there was a magic tool that made it impossible to feel pain or a magic tool that strengthened the mental part… … .”

– Whoa.

Endairon, who had been listening to my grumbling, let out a small sigh.

I laughed at him, crossed my arms, and rested my chin on my right hand while resting my elbows on the table.

“this time… … Indeed, His Highness Lyard played a big role. If the media knew that I had entered the Heartron Dungeon… … My identity must have been discovered by Kravey. They seem to have put a hand to it so that only a fraction of it knows that I was imprisoned in the dungeon.”

-Yes, if Prince Lyard hadn’t moved quickly, it would have been a headache in many ways.

As Endairon said.

If this incident had been known to the Spey One family… … Grans may have called me to my home for interrogation.

Even if I manage to defeat him, if the church is still alive, I will be considered a traitor to the empire and my external activities will be almost impossible.

This meant that there were countless families in the Empire that cooperated with the Order.

Anyway… … This incident was quietly concluded in the line of His Majesty Ryard, and the knights and soldiers who knew about the incident were immediately silenced.

Swoop.

“Whoa, I should at least take a nap. Because you can’t do anything here anyway.”

-… … It’s still morning.

“Then I should go to bed at least in the morning.”

-… … .

I immediately lay down on the soft blanket as I corrected the words at Endairon’s point.

* * *

“… … Didn’t you go to school today?”

“That means you have a lot of heartache. Sophia is still missing… … .”

“Who the hell would do such a terrible thing… … .”

Rumors were circulating within the academy that Kayneth was confined to his home and was refusing to go to school.

But at Keynes’ house… … .

“Are you saying you’re staying at the imperial castle today?”

-Yes, I have a story to share with Her Highness Lyard, so I must stay in the imperial castle for two more days. I’ll be back the day after tomorrow, so I’ll ask for the mansion until then.

“Yes, I understand.”

After Abel finished contacting Kayneth, he immediately explained the situation to the maids.

OK,

‘I heard that Master Kayneth went to the imperial castle… … ? Such a story… … .’

Rin hurriedly reported Kayneth’s situation to her parents’ family.

And the Spey One family, who heard the news, scolded the knight who was watching Kayneth.

Had I been negligent in surveillance?

Despite the scolding he heard from his family, the knight could not make any other excuses, and eventually had to return to Karban City with the punishment of a three-month salary cut.

Meanwhile, after finishing the report, Rin frowned for a moment and tilted her head.

“… … When the hell did you go to Hwangseong? Is it when I clean the warehouse?”

She thought for a moment about Kayneth’s intention to visit the imperial castle. But I immediately stopped thinking about it.

“I just have to stick to the role I’ve been given. Yes, that should be enough.”

Rin shook her head and moved her body to carry out her duties immediately.

and that time.

The third prince of the Labadian Empire, Lyard, created a small alibi to erase the fact that Keynes had visited Heartron Dungeon.

It was exactly what the Spey One family wanted them to hear.

“… … Well, this should be good enough.”

[Third Prince Lyard E Lavadian, who announced that he would definitely punish those involved in the assassination case]

[Viscount Kayneth L. Arden, who expressed his intention to participate in the Heartron dungeon search]

In the article, along with Lyard’s strong will, Viscount Kayneth L Arden visited the imperial castle and requested the third prince of Lyard E Labadian to join the search party.

Thus, the story that Keynes was staying in the imperial castle was created, and Ryard immediately put an end to the central newspaper to publish articles such as assassination, murder, and disappearance that occurred in this practical evaluation.

“Whoa… … . I only got more work thanks to Kayneth.”

“Still, I’m really glad that Sofia is safe.”

Ryard nodded as if agreeing with Rubelis’ remarks.

“Yeah, that’s good. but… … .”

Ryard blurted out his words.

At that, Rubelis hardened her eyes and opened her mouth.

“As Keynes said, I investigated an organization called Death Parade. In fact, it was confirmed that mysterious masked people came and went in and out of the Spey One family. And the magic cushion also reacted properly.”

‘Magic Stone’ is a magic tool mainly used to detect demons.

Of course, an existence that is not a demonic beast. In other words, it could be applied to humans and subhumans with demonic energy.

“There must have been no demons inside the city, right?”

At Ryard’s question, Rubelis nodded in conviction.

“I checked it while chasing after them just in case, so you can think that part is certain.”

The magic cushion reacts in a radius of 500m.

And the intensity of the emitted light also differs depending on the distance. The closer you are, the brighter the light is emitted, and the farther away the light gradually fades.

Because of this, Rubelis was able to be certain to some extent, and Ryard lowered his head as he closed his eyes.

“… … What are you really doing? How on earth do we deal with the Spay One family?”

“… … .”

Ryard muttered in a self-deprecating voice, and Rubelis was silent for a moment.

Did it last like 10 seconds?

“Reporting this to His Majesty the Emperor and His Highness the Crown Prince… … .”

Rubelis, who proposed reporting to the emperor and crown prince.

At that, Ryard shook his head.

“Reporting this fact to Regalus-nim, who is giving me trouble just by checking the 2nd Prince’s faction? And my father must be in trouble with the current war with the Northern Alliance… … .”

“But the opponent is the Spey One family. Furthermore, if the executive of the organization called Death Parade is the Archmage of the 6th Circle, equal to the Master of the Mage Tower… … . A minimum report is considered necessary.”

“Okay… … .”

Ryard’s sorrow deepened.

There is no accurate physical evidence, and information about them is also lacking.

What the hell am I supposed to report? Are the black magicians plotting something in Korea? But what about the evidence to back it up?

If the imperial family starts to move, they will definitely be wary.

‘If the aristocrats join them, it will be more difficult to drive the warlocks.’

Lyard closed his eyes tightly and covered them with his right hand.

“Whoa… … . Rather, what on earth did Kaynes and Sophia think when they found out that the Speywon family was in partnership with the Warlock?”

Lyard blankly looked down at the desk.

After about 10 seconds, I straightened my posture and looked at Rubelis.

Rubelis, who had maintained a calm expression from an hour ago. His posture wasn’t much different from an hour ago.

“… … What are you thinking?”

Rubelis’s eyes grew slightly cold at Ryard’s question.

“They will definitely be eliminated.”

The identity of the person who killed her parents is slowly beginning to emerge. Even though the name of the Spey One family was mentioned, his vengeance never changed.

but… … .

“What if Sophia was with them?”

To Ryard’s question, Rubelis paused for a moment and hesitated to answer.

A conflict that arose between killing the enemy of parents and the woman he loved.

But in the end, I made a decision.

“Even so, the Spey One family would have been destroyed. And you must have tried to get her to change her mind.”

“… … Is that so?”

Lyard smiled bitterly.

Episode 60

60. Smoke (2)

After Keynes was released from the dungeon, he went to school the next day.

And the moment I entered the classroom, I heard comforting and warm words from countless students.

“Don’t worry too much. Surely, nothing will happen to Sophia-sama.”

“that’s right. Since the imperial family sent a search party to the Heartron Dungeon, it must be… … .”

At the consolation of Katarina and Neris, Kayneth gave a small smile.

A sad but hard-to-hide smile.

“First of all, I have also decided to join the search party.”

“At the search party… … .”

The female students showed slightly surprised expressions at Keynes’ remarks.

But it would be strange to be surprised. If he, his younger brother, calmly waits for the report from the search party, people around him will look a bit puzzled.
