The Hero’s Brother Is Bound To Be Depressed

222 – Munchkin of Relationships

Promotion exams were temporarily suspended. This is because after Luna’s accident, there was a large-scale safety inspection at the academy.

Some students were dissatisfied that the exam schedule had been pushed back a week, but their dissatisfaction quickly subsided as students who saw the injured Luna with their own eyes spread the rumor that one of the female students had almost died.

This was also thanks to the professors’ strict control of the atmosphere to avoid causing unnecessary trouble to the victim.

After an investigation by Principal Nelson, the professor who gave Luna the wrong snow globe is revealed to be under a powerful hallucination spell. It was such a powerful hallucination spell that she didn’t even know when or what she did.

The academy was attacked twice in one year. As rumors circulated that the continent’s best academy had lax security, Nelson brought forward the appointment of professors that had been postponed until next year.

The professors at the academy were the students’ teachers, as well as the sword and shield that protected them. Befitting its reputation as the best academy on the continent, the academy was full of hot rumors that people with great reputations had applied.

But I couldn’t be swept away by the heat. This is because it felt more important to buy Luna, who was in the ward, what she wanted to eat than the rumor that a legendary adventurer or a professor who had reached the realm of transcendence was coming.

Although I would be leaving tomorrow, I packed the apple jam waffles and milk coffee that Luna wanted to eat and went to visit her.

As I was writing down my name on the visitor list, Professor Joy glanced at the envelope next to him, shook his head and said,

“He shows utmost sincerity every day. “Who would think I was pregnant?”

In response to Professor Joy’s envious grumbling, I held out the envelope I had prepared separately. It contains an expensive dessert set that is great for expressing gratitude. Professor Joy, who received it, took the envelope as if it had never happened before and went into the professor’s office in the ward.

After completing the visit list, I took the envelope and headed to the bed where Luna was. Luna, who was studying for her exams with a small desk spread out on her bed, didn’t even notice I was there until I poked her on the cheek. This is an incredible level of concentration that I would like to emulate.

“Ross, I said it’s okay if you don’t come today… .”

I responded with a smile as I saw Luna smiling brightly with her cheeks blushing, as if she was happy to see my face while saying that.

How could I not come when I can see such happy faces? It’s enough to be framed and hung in a corner of the memory palace.

I put the books away and placed waffles and coffee on the small desk. As soon as I received it, I put it in the storage room and took it out in front of the ward, so it was hot as if I had just made it.

Luna, who was eating waffles with great effort and moving her little mouth, suddenly gave me a passionate look.

“Wouldn’t Ross go beyond being a club manager and become a leader who receives people’s support in the future?”

I stopped drinking my coffee at the words that had no context. I wasn’t agitated, but it’s natural to have doubts about something so unexpected. he asked, setting down his coffee.

“… Suddenly you’re the captain?”

Even the manager of the Messiah Club is in doubt about whether he is doing well. But the captain? To begin with, leading a group of people did not suit my personality at all.

“If I am the queen of chess, then Ross must be the king. “I thought he might have been called captain.”

Again, the answer was without context, but I was able to guess the flow from the previous conversation.

“Is this what the guy named Danger I mentioned last time said?”

“huh. I keep thinking about it… .”

Luna, who woke up in the ward, explained to me in detail what she had experienced. She said that a female student of hers called ‘Danger’ saved her own life, and she told her about the conversation she had with her.

Before talking to Luna, I thought Roel had saved Luna’s life, but I was taken aback by the girl named Danger who appeared out of nowhere.

I checked the setting book several times in case I didn’t remember, but there was no female student called Danger. Such a word has never appeared. It was a variable that suddenly emerged from somewhere, revealing its presence.

Luna is convinced that the person Danger called captain was me. She was curious about the reason for her strong confidence, and when she asked her about it, Luna blushed and answered, ‘Because Ross is the only one who goes around telling people that I’m pretty.’ She inadvertently tilted her head. I cried.

Luna is of course pretty. Just as it was natural for people to need air, it was natural for her that Luna was pretty.

The heroine of Roel and the characters in my novel are all beautiful women, some of the most beautiful on the continent, but Luna has always been the prettiest to me.

I answered sincerely that even if it wasn’t me, everyone who knew Luna would say that, but for some reason, Luna didn’t really believe me.

After talking with Luna a little more, I cleaned up what I ate and left the ward.

Although Luna wanted to study for the written exam tomorrow, a worried expression appeared on Luna’s face as she wanted to talk more with me, so she came up with the excuse of going to the training ground.

After leaving the ward, there is only one place for me to go: the Academy. I yawned and walked towards the club room.

“Is this really the road to Estelle’s house?”

Rosalind said, looking around the dark alley suspiciously. Estelle, who was ahead, turned around and nodded eagerly.

“Uh, uhm… It’s a shortcut… Joe, it’s a little dark, isn’t it? “I’m sorry.”

After answering that, Estelle let out a small sigh without Rosaline noticing. She could not refuse Confsion’s orders to lure Rosaline.

Estelle’s clan is restricted from opposing the church. This means that if you refuse an order, you will not be able to resist at all and all of you will be killed by one Jamie.

Estelle, who had already had to watch helplessly as her family died before her eyes, had to hold back her anger by clenching her hands so hard that her fingernails dug into her palms and bled.

Estelle, who was walking, turned her head and spoke behind Rosaline as if to listen.

“Because our house will be available soon…” “Get ready.”

“I’m going to a friend’s house to study for a test. What should I do to prepare?”

When Rosaline spoke as if it were absurd, Estelle scratched her head with her usual stupid smile.

“Hehe, I see… ?”

He was in no position to refuse orders. Still, she couldn’t let Rosaline die. So Estelle came up with a plan.

Confsion has no intention of leaving Modest until his goal of luring Roel out of the Academy is achieved. In that case, it was enough to achieve the goal and destroy the plan designed by Confsion.

Estelle had secretly sent a letter to Roel saying that her family had been kidnapped by unknown people and that she had no choice but to lure Rosaline away according to their orders.

‘Roel is definitely following me.’

There was no reply to the letter, but Estelle was confident that Roel would show up. This is because Rosaline was Roel’s beloved lover, and she sensed her very subtle aura following Rosaline from the Academy.

If it weren’t for the assassin’s unique senses, he wouldn’t have noticed the sense of discomfort. It was definitely a skill worthy of being called a transcendent at a young age.

“We’ve arrived. “This is our house.”

The place where Estelle took Rosaline was one of Modest’s many fake hideouts. The exterior wall was a little old, but the inside had been rebuilt several times, so it was a good place to stay. Rosaline nodded her head without much doubt and followed Estelle.

When Estelle knocked on the door, Jamie, disguised as an ordinary young man seen everywhere, opened the door and welcomed the guest.

“Welcome. “I was excited and looking forward to Estelle’s precious friend visiting my house since the morning.”

When Jamie made exaggerated gestures in a theatrical tone, Rosalyn smiled and greeted him, perhaps because she thought he was just a fun person.

“hello. This is Rosaline, Estelle’s friend. “I came here unexpectedly, but please take care of me.”

Rosalyn smiled innocently and greeted Jamie, following Jamie’s gesture to come inside, and obediently entered the house.

Estelle, who was about to follow Rosaline, stopped because of Jamie blocking the door with his body.

“what?”

“Uh huh, from here on out it’s our private area. You can go back now. “For young children, go home quickly and grow taller by sucking on breast milk.”

Estelle frowned violently at Jamie’s low-quality joke. No matter what she did, she couldn’t leave Rosaline behind. She tried to force herself to go inside, but Jamie slammed the door shut before Estelle could open her mouth.

“That b*stard… .”

Grinding her teeth and suppressing her anger, Estelle quietly turned to the alley she had come from. After she walked a few steps, Roel appeared, shining pure white in the moonlight, as if brightening her dark alley.

Roel, who made eye contact with Estelle, frowned slightly and asked as if confirming.

“… Are you Estelle?”

I’ve exchanged greetings with Rosaline a few times, but Roel doesn’t seem to remember. Estelle nodded her head slightly to Roel, who was looking at her as if she was observing a stranger, and she pretended to be scared.

“Well, over there…” Rosalyn is alone… I don’t need it anymore… Ugh… “Black.”

Estelle’s worries about Rosaline multiplied hundreds of times and she truly cried. She raised her hands and repeatedly wiped away her tears, showing that she could not bear her guilt for putting her friend in danger.

But Roel looked at Estelle without saying anything. As if her gaze was trying to see through her true feelings, Estelle tightened her brows and tear ducts even more and shed tears desperately.

Suddenly, Roel raised his hand and stroked Estelle’s head. The moment Roel’s hand touched Estelle, she felt intense goosebumps as if every cell in her body was reacting. Her heart pounded for no reason, her veins burning.

To Estelle, who was confused and did not understand why she was doing this, Roel spoke in a soft voice with a beautiful smile that erased her worries.

“don’t worry. Because I will definitely save Rosaline. “You can just pretend you didn’t know anything and go back to the academy.”

With that said, Roel added, as if telling people not to worry anymore.

“Let’s at least have a meal with Rosalyn this weekend. “I gave her good information, so her boyfriend should at least repay her.”

Estelle looked at Roel blankly and nodded slightly. Estelle’s mind was foggy right now, and her numerous thoughts were losing their power and falling. All that remained in Estelle’s mind was the kind and warm hand that caressed her.

“Well, then… Enough… !”

Estelle, whose face was red, hurriedly ran into the alley.

Roel watched in silence until Estelle’s back was no longer visible and tapped his temple. It was a behavior that had become a habit at some point.

Roel twitched one corner of his mouth and muttered.

“… “That’s strange.”
