Chapitre 10: Blaine empire

Happy Reading~

===========

"Noah? I don't know, I think he went to see his father?" Eris answered, while showing an expression full of sadness.

In fact, what she did was just pretending.

It was all done for Ash's good, so that he wouldn't be tainted by the man's crazy nature.

Otherwise, she was worried that he would become a cold-hearted person.

Maybe, that would make him like Noah.

Whatever it is, she herself admits that Noah's character is not completely bad.

It's just that, she still really doesn't like it.

"...Well, since it's like this, I'll return this wooden sword to him later." Ash muttered softly, turning his head slightly towards the wooden sword he was currently holding.

The wooden sword, of course, belonged to Noah.

After all, he was the one who asked him to lend it.

It was all to be able to defeat this man, the man who previously bullied Alicia and Eris.

However, Noah, he disappeared.

No one knows where he went, not even him.

Whatever it was, one thing Ash knew, Noah, he was strong.

So, he was confident that he would definitely be able to protect himself.

...

"Noah, I have something to tell you."

I, who heard what the man in front of me said.

Subconsciously nodding my head, seeing how serious he was.

It felt as if he wanted to talk about something important just with me.

Even so, I still felt strange.

In fact, usually my brother is a very cheerful person.

But this time, something seemed to have changed.

Even so, I still believe that the man in front of me right now is my own brother.

However, I could tell from the way he showed his gaze.

If it weren't for that, I would have run away from the start.

"Hah... When you hear this, I hope you won't be surprised." Athen, for a moment he began to take a deep breath.

Don't know what the reason is, it's just that his eyes, they started to show a little sadness.

"This brother of yours, he is going to the imperial capital..."

When I heard the last sentence he said, I subconsciously froze where I was.

Instantly, without me realizing it, my body, it started shaking with fear.

For whatever reason, I don't know myself.

Instantly, memories of my older brother and I together started flowing back into my mind.

For a moment, tears started to fall from my eyes.

"I-is that true...?" I asked again, in a breathless tone.

Suddenly, a slight feeling of rejection began to well up in my heart.

Even though in my previous life I had reached adulthood, that didn't mean I couldn't cry.

In fact, every time I lose something precious to me, I will always cry.

Of course, that doesn't mean I'm going to show it in front of other people.

However, I still don't understand what happened.

My tears, they were even shown to someone.

Someone who shouldn't be my family, even though in general it is real.

After all, I have lived for the second time.

So, it's fine to think of this man as my own brother.

After all, we have been blood related since birth.

Even so, it must be admitted that I am much more handsome than my own brother.

In fact, that's the reality.

If want to say it, I can admit that I am much more handsome than other village children.

In fact, my own father, who is the village head.

He himself admitted it too, admitting that I was much more handsome than when he was younger.

Athen, for a moment he was silent in his place.

Before finally, he decided to hug his own brother.

"Even though I have tried to refuse, the empire absolutely does not allow it."

"They've given me a lot of time, and, it's time for me to go."

"..." I, who was still shedding tears, could only freeze in my place.

Without being able to say anything, knowing what happened.

The moment my brother had acquired talent above yellow, his fate was already decided.

At that time, he should have been brought by people from the holy church.

However, he asked them to give him some time.

The reason is clear, he still wants to be with his family.

Finally, holy church, they had no choice but to agree to the request.

After all, it is my brother who will carry the burden on the continent they are currently on.

"When are you leaving?" after a few minutes, I decided to ask again.

Actually, the question I asked was quite unreasonable.

In fact, I already know what the answer is.

"Tomorrow morning, Blaine's imperial guards will arrive, and they will come to pick me up." he said, answering all the questions his brother wanted to hear.

Even though there were no visible tears in his eyes, that didn't mean he didn't feel sad.

In fact, a letter from the holy church had arrived a few days ago.

But only today did he tell his brother about it, for some reason.
