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

The distance from her is only tens of centimeters. I turned my head toward the window to give her a rest.

If someone saw this, they might have a small doubt, but few would doubt the relationship between the 13-year-old and the 21-year-old girl.

like that… … I closed my eyes for a moment.

After about 30 minutes, the wagon started moving again.

“Finally leaving. however… … .”

Rin fell asleep right next to him.

“… … Didn’t you sleep last night?”

or not… … Was it that tired?

I could soon understand her fatigue.

Unlike me, she had to sit in silence for hours. Even the appearance of enduring for several hours with his back firmly straightened seemed pitiful.

“Haam… … .”

I let her sleep in peace.

And while looking at the scenery beyond the window, I took out a mystery novel different from the romance novel I read yesterday.

I took out refreshments from the drawer opposite the chamberlain and enjoyed reading and snacking together.

After several hours, the sky darkened and the carriage arrived in a new city.

“Alberto, how long will it take to get to Carvan City?”

“Maybe it will arrive tomorrow morning. It’s because we’re heading straight to Karvan without stopping anywhere along the way.”

Most nobles, including Delt and Seline, were uncomfortable with long-term travel in many ways. Even if you lie comfortably on the mattress and move around.

And to soothe such inconvenience, they enjoyed sightseeing and shopping in small towns and villages that they passed through once, and it is said that the travel time doubled or tripled as a result.

When Alberto went away, I immediately started eating dinner, closing the bedroom door.

“… … Will it arrive tomorrow?”

Today, too, I had a lodging and meal at a top-notch inn.

Well, I wasn’t physically exhausted, but should I say that the boredom of moving was too much for me?

Mentally I was pretty tired.

In addition, while moving, encountering monsters, bandits, bandits, etc., the travel time was significantly delayed.

We traveled from 9am to 8pm.

Excluding the time spent in towns and cities to change horses, meals, and battles, the pure travel time will be approximately 7 to 8 hours.

‘… … If it was a car, it would have arrived in one day.’

Tumble.

Just like yesterday, the floor of the inn was covered with natural marble. Even the structure was the same, so it was confusing with yesterday.

So when I asked Alberto, he replied that both the inn we stayed at yesterday and today are run by the Spayone store.

It’s just that the word ‘Spey One’ is not included in the inn’s name.

“To set up an inn like this just for the convenience of a few days… … .”

Perhaps she didn’t like the inns that existed in the city, Grans built them in every city that passed through the finest inns.

According to Alberto’s story, the inn you’re staying at now seems to be in serious trouble in many ways.

Nevertheless, the inn continued to be maintained through the funds of the Spey One family.

“… … You really have money left over.”

I’d rather build a villa.

However, it seems that the villas are also located all over the country. It is said that there are more than 10 of them. Hearing that story, I couldn’t help but be amazed.

but… … The luxury of the Spay One family can’t be this much.

If it had ended at this level, I would have had to rate him as frugal.

fluff.

After brushing my teeth, I lay down on the bed in my pajamas.

“really… … You’ll be back tomorrow to that mansion.”

Chapter 89

89. To the Spey One family (4)

“so… … Are you arriving tomorrow?”

“Yes, I just received word that Master Kayneth has arrived in Altas City.”

“Yes, I see.”

Phyllis, dressed in light nightgowns and slung over her shoulders. She let out a small sigh at the maid’s report and sat down in her rocking chair, resting her chin on her chin.

‘Why did you cancel the engagement with the Sephiroth family… … .’

Unaware of the terms between Grannes and Keynes, she decided that the cancellation of the engagement was due to Keynes’ own will.

And I couldn’t help but wonder at the appearance of Grans who accepted that dogma as if he accepted it.

‘He wouldn’t back down easily either. What the hell was the conversation between the two of them?’

Phyllis bit her lip and touched her chin.

‘As expected, I have no choice but to ask directly.’

Phyllis’ position in the Spey One family was greatly diminished. Following Sophia’s disappearance, her engagement to the Sephiroth family was also cancelled.

And as time passed, the family started to look at Phyllis like a thorn in the eye.

In particular, I felt alive in the eyes of Celia and Celine.

Phyllis guessed that the breakup with the crown prince was the reason.

However, after the engagement with the Sephiroth family was cancelled, Grans showed a lot of interest in Kayneth.

Is that why?

‘Celia, she’s been quiet for a while too.’

Even when the knights belonging to the 1st Knights were sent as Kayneth’s escort, everyone in the family was surprised.

Even Delt and Milien descending from the current system to Karvan City were escorted by knights belonging to the 2nd Knights.

It must have been clear that Kayneth’s value was higher than those two.

“certainly… … You have to marry Kayneth with a girl from a high-ranking family like the Sephiroth family. Or this Speyone family… … .”

Phyllis was determined to use Keynes to improve her position.

A day later, at a little past 10:00 a.m., Phyllis went out to meet Keynes in a fancy dress.

And when Keynes got off the carriage with the maid, she approached the carriage with a bright smile.

“You must have had a hard time coming this far.”

She spoke in a friendly voice.

but… … .

“Yes, I struggled a bit. Rather, I will go to greet the head of the household first.”

“Ah, that, yes.”

Contrary to her warm tone, Keynes replied in a cold tone.

Was it because I was too embarrassed? Phyllis stuttered involuntarily.

Watching Kayneth’s back as she entered the mansion, Phyllis bit her nails.

Meanwhile, Keynes smiled at her mother’s distorted face.

And as soon as he entered the mansion and met eyes with Serene, who was glaring at him from the second floor, Kaynez jerked his head! turned away

As if it doesn’t feel worth caring about.

“profit… … !”

Celine blushed at Kayneth’s attitude and began to tremble.

“Go, dare… … Something like low bloodline… … .”

He gnashed his teeth and shouted swear words, but he couldn’t hear it in Kayneth’s ears as he headed to the bar.

And without being guided by the butler, Kayneth, who was heading to the room alone, had to be stopped by the man in front of him.

“It’s been a while.”

“… … Yes, long time no see. Ellen Youngsik.”

“It doesn’t matter if you call me brother.”

“For my subject matter, I dare not call the next heir of Spey-One ‘brother’.”

Despite Kayneth’s thorny reply, Eren’s expression remained as cold as always.

“Yes, if it were the four incompetent guys from the past… … I wouldn’t have allowed myself to be called ‘Brother’ either.”

“Things have changed… … Are you saying that?”

“I have already heard the news about you several times. And just the fact that the head of the family called you to the family home can be seen as a part of the Spey One family.”

Kenneth’s pupils narrowed slightly at Eren’s remark, and he answered while closing his eyes once.

“All right. then… … From now on, I will call you big brother.”

“Yes, and I hope you will reflect on Serene’s case. It is true that Serene did something wrong, but the fact that her relationship with Her Highness, Crown Prince Regalus, who will become the next emperor, is severed is a great loss to our SpayWon family as well.”

“… … Yes, I understand.”

Keynes muttered to himself, ‘Reflection is a dog’.

However, there is no need to openly show hostility to Eren.

And when Keynes answered with a small bow of his head, Eren passed him and started walking down the hallway in silence.

Tumble.

The sound of footsteps slowly faded away.

Kayneth moved her gaze slightly to look at Eren’s back.

‘… … By now, the mana in the body must have been stained with demonic energy?’

Kayneth couldn’t feel any special energy from Ellen.

He let out a small sigh and immediately moved on.

On the way to the family room, the maids and butlers who recognized Kayneth’s face immediately clung to the wall and bent their backs.

And Kenneth overdoes it by taking it for granted.

‘It’s a waste to even say hello to these guys.’

He passed between the attendants and stopped in front of the housekeeper’s room.

“Please wait a moment.”

The first butler, Servan, who had been waiting in front of the housekeeper’s room, asked Kaynes for his understanding and immediately knocked on the door of the housekeeper’s room.

“Holy Head, Master Keynes has arrived.”

“Let it in.”

A profound voice came from beyond the door. The voice was so hard and cold. To the point where I wondered, ‘Does the owner of this voice really have feelings?’

When Servan tried to open the door to the living room, Kaynez stepped over the door, maintaining a poker face as if to hide his nervous feelings.

“Excuse me.”

“Yes, good job coming.”

Grans greets her with formal remarks and a calm face.

From noble mtl dot com

and… … .

“no.”

Keynes also replied with an expressionless expression.

It’s as if they wouldn’t show their feelings to each other.

“so… … Has there been any progress on the previous promise?”

“Yes, I predict that it will be possible before moving on to the 4th grade.”

“Yes, I hope it goes as you said.”

Would you really think so?

There was no change in his expression or tone. But the same goes for Keynes.

“I only ask you one thing.”

“Yes, please.”

When Keynes nodded, Grans closed her eyes for a moment.

And how many seconds have passed? Grans’ eyes flashed and glared at Keynes with fierce eyes.

“you… … Can you give your life for this Speyone family?”

Grans skipped over the introduction just now and moved on to the main topic in an instant.

Kayneth paused for a moment at his question.

Can you give your life for your family?

“What is that… … .”

“Answer me.”

Grans cut off Kayneth and caused a murder.

At that moment, Keynes gulped down and bit her lower lip for a moment.

In order to contact the Death Parade Church, answering ‘possible’ might be the correct answer. However, in his life so far, is there any reason to sacrifice his life for the Spey One family?

Kayneth shook his head at the end of his thoughts.

“… … Impossible.”

“If that’s the case, it means you can’t swear allegiance to this Spey One family.”

“We, the Ardennes family, are already under the control of the SpayWon family. That’s why I’ll obey as much as possible if it’s the order of the Speyone family, but the reason to give my life for the Speyone family… … I don’t have ‘yet’.”

“It’s ‘yet’… … .”

Grans started chewing on the word ‘yet’ a few times. Then, while showing a smile, he finally moved his expressionless face.

“Yes, it certainly could be from your point of view. If so, ask me one more question.”

“… … .”

“Despite the emperor’s reign, can you prioritize the orders of the Speywon family?”

“Yes, it is possible.”

Keynes answered without hesitation.

Seeing that, Granth’s pupils narrowed.

“Even with orders to kill His Highness Lyard?”

“… … I don’t think the head of the household would ask me to kill Her Highness Ryard for no reason.”

“If there is a reason, you can kill?”

“yes.”

When Keynes nodded, Grans closed her eyes and opened her mouth.

“Tonight at 10:00, Servan will come to your bedroom. Follow Servan’s guidance and come to me.”
