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

‘With my current amount of mana… … The power of the 5th circle must be at its limit. The black magician named Crave is definitely a black magician of the 6th circle’s rank. There is no time to slowly increase mana like now.’

A means to rapidly increase the amount of mana.

Yes, the younger brother, Keynes, had that means.

However, this does not mean that it is provided free of charge. It was Sophia who handed over 90% of the treasures to be obtained from the blue dungeon to Kayneth, and tried to get a supply that matched the amount.

‘… … I have no choice but to rely on Kayneth for now.’

She let out a small sigh as she closed her eyes.

Then, he stared intently at Cain and Armain, who had started quarreling over trivial reasons.

Five victims who swore allegiance. They all signed contracts with the curse of mana and were enslaved to Sophia.

‘If you haven’t presented the contract… … Surely, they might have been together.’

Victims who chose to return to their hometowns.

Some of them had a vendetta against the Church and were willing to be with Sophia. But when they saw the so-called subordination contract, they turned their heads away with a crumpled face.

‘Do you really want to go back to your hometown? or not… … .’

Sophia shook her head.

I am just grateful that there are five talented people who can be absolutely trusted right now.

“Whoa… … . stop.”

Cain and Armain, who were growling at each other, flinched at Sophia’s cold voice and stiffened their faces.

“… … I’ll continue the story. I plan to clear the blue dungeon first, then follow Olivia’s message and move to Norn’s territory. It seems that the church’s research center is in the Norn Territory… … .”

The two men hardened their eyes at the word ‘lab’.

Despite the reaction of the two, Sophia kept a calm expression and threw a low word.

“Be firmly prepared.”

* * *

-… … he said.

Endairon, who conveyed his sister’s message intact.

I brought my right hand to my philtrum while narrowing my brows.

“It’s a treasure worth tens of thousands of gold coins… … ? I don’t remember there being anything like that… … .”

– It must mean that the future continues to change.

I couldn’t help but nod my head while clicking my tongue at Endairon’s remark.

The development of the original story would have started to change significantly just by the events I have already touched on.

“More than that… … . No way, I thought my sister would ask me for the holy water of Uria.”

Originally, it grows while gaining allies by being involved in numerous incidents and attacking the bases and research facilities of the cult.

From noble mtl dot com

You might have met the test subjects in the lab by now.

-so… … What should I reply with?

“… … ok.”

Is it really the right thing to do to give the holy water of Uria to my sister? Wouldn’t it be better to be alert and alert so as not to be caught off guard in the face of danger?

I couldn’t help but be conflicted for a while.

Looking at me like that, Endairon sighed.

– Whoa… … .

He sat on my shoulder and crossed his legs.

-It will definitely affect the development you mentioned, but do you think that Sophia-sama will be vigilant against them? And even if you take Uria’s holy water, you can get dozens of… … . No, you yourself are well aware of the fact that even taking a few L is difficult.

“that… … .”

-The future you know has changed since the beginning, so please accept it. And there is no guarantee that the future will be bad just by taking Uria’s holy water.

“… … Still, the future that will arise from it must be predicted. We have to avoid the worst possible case.”

-Then you shouldn’t have interfered with Sofia-sama’s future from the start.

“Oh, no, but… … .”

The original work was finished unfinished.

The result should be seen as open in many ways.

-There is also a possibility that Sophia’s taking Uria’s holy water and becoming stronger will also lead to good results… … .

“Yes, that possibility exists.”

If you look at the possibilities, it will be infinite.

-Anyway, the decision is up to you. I will pass your decision on to Sophia.

“… … okay.”

The moment I nodded, was there an additional message from Elaim? Endairon frowned and let out a small sigh.

-… … Elaim says he’s sending a high-ranking spirit like me here. He said to put the holy water of Uria in a pocket in the subspace and hand it to the spirit.

Elaim who can summon countless spirits to Middle-earth using Sophia’s sister’s mana.

Of course, in order to summon many spirits, that much mana is required, and as much as the spirits are active in Middle-earth, the summoner’s mana continues to decrease.

“Anyway, you mean you need at least a week to clear the dungeon, right?”

-okay.

At Endairon’s answer, I immediately got up from my chair.

“Then, it means that it doesn’t matter if you hand over the goods after you get paid. Now I have to prepare for tomorrow’s party.”

My sister’s case was not something I had to decide right away. No, in my heart I should have already made up my mind.

Well, in any case, now I had to prepare to visit the Hwangseong Fortress tomorrow afternoon.

For the first time in my life, including my previous life, I attended a large-scale official party. No, have you never attended a small party?

I checked my watch with a nervous expression, recalling the splendid party of the aristocrats that I could only see in webtoons.

Chapter 68

68. Emperor’s birthday party (2)

-The tension you feel right now is being conveyed to me. I’m just attending a party, is there a need to be so nervous?

“… … The first party I attend is the emperor’s birthday party. Honestly, if you’re not nervous, that’s even weirder.”

– To be so nervous just attending a party… … . I am still immature in many ways.

“Noisy.”

I was able to confidently say that my mental strength had become stronger in many ways while experiencing the harsh experience. And while meeting and talking with various people at the academy, the poker face must have gotten quite familiar.

But it is as Endairon said.

I was just attending a party, so I could never have been this nervous. If you are definitely immature, you might be considered immature.

The only people who could honestly express this tension were Endairon and Sister Sophia. No, do you think some of the guys who entered the category of friends will also be included?

“Even if you wear a suit sent by your parents, a watch… … Should I drive with this? No, this looks pretty good too… … .”

-Then I’ll be fine with both. Also, I have two wrists.

At Endairon’s remarks, I laughed bitterly.

“no… … . That’s kind of weird.”

Do you wear a watch on both wrists?

An awkward sight unfolded just by imagining it.

It might be a bit embarrassing to see someone like that.

In the end, I thought about it for 10 minutes with three wristwatches listed, and finally chose the watch I picked first.

-It’s hard to understand what people’s fashion is.

I laughed bitterly and went down to the first floor to have dinner.

And after the meal, he went to bed and fooled the eyes of Rin and the watcher, and when there were 20 to 30 minutes left until midnight, he registered the items at the auction house using the underground passage.

When I returned to the mansion, the hands of the clock pointed to 2:05 in the morning.

“Anyway, you only need to arrive at the imperial castle before 6pm… … .”

Even if you sleep late like usual, there won’t be a big problem.

So really until 9:00 am I slept motionless in bed like a corpse.

And when 10 am came, I was able to get myself up with the help of the maids.

“Haam… … . For some reason, I want to lie in bed all day today.”

“You can sleep until 2:00 PM. However, you have to prepare for the party from 2:00 to 4:00, then get on the carriage and arrive at the imperial castle by 5:00.”

During breakfast, when Abel explained the schedule for the day, I smiled bitterly and nodded.

“Did I say the party lasted three days?”

“That’s right. And from yesterday, envoys from different countries started entering the imperial castle.”

At her reply, I let out a small sigh while resting my chin on my chin.

After eating, I got up and went straight to the third floor. Then I hurriedly brushed my teeth and took an early nap.

It was exactly two o’clock in the afternoon when Abel came into my bedroom and woke me up.

“Brother, I have prepared the bath water.”

I followed her hand and walked to the bathroom.

The water in the bathtub was full of red roses.

The moment the scent of roses passed my nose, I was startled and struggled to say that I could wash myself, but in the end I was surrounded by the maids.

“Please be patient today. If it had been another day, I would have skipped it, but on an important day like today… … .”

At Abel’s remarks that followed, I held back my embarrassment and soaked myself in the bathtub.

with a plop.

“Damn it… … .”

I took a bath while entrusting myself to the hands of the maids.

It was an embarrassing situation that made my face blush, but it was definitely more comfortable than washing myself.

Just stay still and it will wash itself.

Of course, unlike usual, using various bath agents, the bath time was more than twice as long as usual.

This part should be considered as a major drawback.

After leaving the bathroom, I wrapped myself in a towel and walked straight to the dressing room.

however… … .

“… … Why do you follow me?”

“I will help you.”

“Ah, no, let me wear the clothes myself!”

As soon as I entered the dressing room, I immediately locked the door.

Then I quickly changed into a suit.

As soon as I left the dressing room, the maids looked me up and down as they straightened out the wrinkles on my suit.

“… … Yes, it seems fine.”

I let out a small sigh at Abel’s remark. That’s a sigh of relief.

“Okay, let me get my hair done. Do you have a style you want?”

“… … Just keep it neat and tidy.”

“All right.”

Sitting in front of the dressing table mirror, I had to spend 20 minutes while receiving Abel’s touch.

Every time I opened my eyes and looked at my hair, I thought, ‘Isn’t that what it is?’, but it was Abel who created a calmer and cleaner look than when I was tidying up.

Admiring her ability, I immediately prepared to go out.

“… … An hour and a half has passed.”

“For the lady I served, the basic preparation time was about 2 to 3 hours.”

“What the hell did you do for 2-3 hours… … .”

“I often spent 30 to 50 minutes trying on different dresses on the day of the party because I suddenly didn’t like the dress I had spent hours choosing. And when it comes to accessories… … .”

Abel, who suffered a lot due to his sudden change of heart.

It’s not incomprehensible considering the fact that I also spent 10 minutes with my wristwatch… … . It’s hard to accept the part where you suddenly want to change your pre-arranged dress and accessories on the day of the party.

‘Anyway, it’s a little bit like doing that on the day… … .’

I smiled bitterly and closed my eyes.

Well, that would be different for each person.

There must be people who spend time with a sudden change of heart among men who wear uniforms, not suits.

“Because I can’t help but want to look good to the opposite s*x.”

At my murmur, Abel tilted his head.

“Aren’t you the young master?”

“Of course, me too.”

I replied with a shrug of my shoulders.

From luxury suits to classic wristwatches and luxury shoes. After that, I used cosmetics including perfume, albeit a little, and made my hair neat.

Of course, it was also to show a calm appearance visually, but a party is a place for socializing besides the main purpose… … .

“Ah, but I can take a bath and undress by myself.”

It was Abel who burst into laughter at my remark.

“Then we’ll let you know as soon as the carriage arrives.”

“Yes, please.”

As I sat down on the sofa, I calmed down my tense mind for a while.

And 30 minutes later, Abel came to my bedroom and gave me the news of the Rose family.

The carriage of the Rose family that entered the imperial castle a while ago. I touched the tie for a while with a little anticipation at the story.

‘If I give up my title… … It would be okay to change the name of the organization from Arden to Rose.’

If Elizabeth didn’t change her mind, I had the heart to ignore the parents’ decision and have a serious relationship with her.

First of all, it wouldn’t be bad to try dating at the academy.

I smiled a little at the appearance of Elizabeth, who was about to enter the academy, and immediately boarded the carriage after leaving the mansion.

“Bocchan, let’s go.”

“okay.”

At the same time as I answered, the carriage started moving.

And maybe 30 minutes have passed? The carriage stopped near the imperial castle.

“I think we will have to wait a bit to enter the imperial castle.”
