Chapter 10

 

 

 

As I rolled my eyes back, I hardened in that position.

“…Callis, did I just forget about him?”

I put down my pen and wrapped my head.

“That crazy bast^rd.”

There is no problem with independent funding, and stuff about business.

But if my first brother in the house and Callis run into each other, it’s all over.

Don’t they have a crazy alliance that destroyed half of the continent in the original novel?


Of course, things have changed a little bit now, so Bastian won’t plan to hit the royal palace, but I didn’t know what would happen if the two ultimate villains would have met.

“Did you know? This time, I’m bored and I’m turning the capital into a sea of fire.”

With Bastian’s insane drive and Callis’ madness, it is quite possible.

“It’s terrible just thinking about it.”

I felt like I was getting distant in front of me. I got goosebumps and rubbed my arms quickly.

“Ugh”

Don’t tell me Bastian is really contacting Callis.

If he is a normal person, he can’t do that to find Callis just to find her sister’s memory.

“Bastian is not normal, just so you know.”

I am blinded by the momentary perception of reality.

“Let’s calm down.”

I decided to think calmly again.

According to the original, Bastian and Callis will meet two years from now.

“That’s probably when… it is a little less than a year after Callis woke up.”

Callis periodically fall asleep, half awake and half asleep.

The book said the period is between 50 to 100 years.

And my crazy first brother found Callis way too good just in time.

This is because he got to see Callis about half a year after he wakes up.

The whole world is like an examination for the two villains who had met.

“…Anyway, by calculation, is it still time for Callis to sleep?”

As it is written, Callis would wake up in at least a year and a half.

That means that no matter how much Bastian contacts the western continent now, the answer will not return.

In addition, it is unclear whether Callis, who woke up a year later, would accept Bastian’s request.

Because Callis is a creature that is driven by his own interests.

I don’t know if he’s destroying the empire just like the original, but does he remember his sister? Will Callis be interested in asking for her return?

“No way.”

I couldn’t even snort thinking about how high is his pride.

On the contrary, it is fortunate that he won’t break the peace treaty and turn the continent into a sea of fire, saying that he called him into a private matter.

“Then I’m relieved for the time being.”

I threw away the used paper and took out a new one.

Then I started to write down a plan that is supposed to happen about three years down to one year.

Of course, it would be great if it worked out the way I thought, but there’s always other circumstances.

From now on until Callis wakes up, my independence fund is raised, and should be able to stand out.

So I will eat well and live well alone in a rural village where no one can find me.

If anything, I can just go to another continent, and after a long time, I learn some dense writing.

“All right.”

It won’t be a problem at this rate. I’m going to survive all by myself.

“Do you like the food?”

Bastian, sitting across from the table, asked.

I stopped cutting the steak and looked up.

“Huh? Amelia.”

He smiled when I met his eyes, as if he had been looking at me for a while. As usual, he had a soft expression.

I answered him with the corners of my mouth pulled in full force.

“Ahaha.”

I’ve been laughing so hard in front of Bastian for the past few days that I’ve had a cramp in my mouth.

“It’s good, it’s really good.”

Bastian nodded satisfactorily.

“That’s a relief. I was going to change the chef if it didn’t suit my taste.”

He said in a sensual tone, but I could tell.

It has a murderous aura in it. If it doesn’t taste good, he will kill the chef.

On a day when it wasn’t cold, I got goosebumps on my spine.

“Haha.”

I forced myself to smile and swallow the food.

Today is my first week in the mansion, and I’m having my first dinner with Bastian.

In fact, Bastian tried to eat with me from day one, but his situation is not good enough. This is because he was so busy with his work.

Although it is nice to spend my time alone in the annex.

“How’s life in the annex?”

“It’s great, everyone takes good care of me.”

“If you need anything, let me know, Amel. I’ll listen.”

My hand that was cutting the steak stopped sharply.

At first glance, it sounds polite, but that was 100% pure.

How do I know?

I didn’t want to know either.

“…enough.”

The incident dates back two days.

That day, Bastian, who visited the annex, was having a short tea time in the greenhouse.

“Roses are the prettiest of flowers these days.”

“Really?”

“Yes, I feel good just by watching it.”

As I watched the flower bed, I unconsciously threw meaningless words, and Bastian laughed cutely.

Yeah, that is good enough. We are having a normal conversation between brother and sister who are friendly with each other.

The problem happened the next morning.

Opening my eyes, I had no choice but to be astonished.

“Hey, what’s this?”

The roses were densely planted in the greenhouse that was fine until yesterday.

From red roses to rare blue varieties.

It is no exaggeration to say that all the roses in the world have been swept away.

Even more than ten workers were carrying a cart full of new roses.

“Well, my lady, the Duke told me to deliver this.”

As I turned as white as snow, the maid approached and quietly held out a letter.

「Dear Amel, I don’t know what you’re going to like, so I prepared everything.」

The moment I saw the neat handwriting, I realized right away. The fact that my brother is a crazier man than I have ever imagined.

Since then I’ve been careful to say a single word to Bastian.

“Are you sure you don’t need anything?”

“Yes.”

Even if you’re here, I won’t say anything.

Bastian drooped his eyes in disappointment at my knife-like reply. My heart ached to the point of sourness.

But knowing that it was just his normal facial expression, I gently pinched my thigh.

At times like this, I need to stay alert. I’ll be in trouble if I am tricked by this.

“Oh, come to think of it, Amel.”

As he was twisting one side of his thigh around, Bastian started to rhyme.

“I heard you’re working on the administration of the annex these days.”

“Oh, yes. I’m learning from Monica.”

On a welcome note, I took my hand off my thigh and replied with a glimmer.

I have a lot to say about that. The annex administration had more work to do than I thought, and even fit my aptitude.

“You could have rest a little longer, but you’re already overdoing it.”

“No, it was fun.”

Bastian laughed as if I was cute with my reply.

“I’m proud of you, my sister.”

“There are a lot more things to do than I thought. Maybe it’s because the annex has been empty for a long time.”

Above all, the annex is full of new items to be equipped.

Thanks to this, I’ve been organizing the list to buy for the past few days, which is quite fun.

“I have to buy daily necessities and replace old furniture within this week. Especially the staff’s stuff. Everything is too old. Their clothes are standard size, so I have to customize them…”

What else do I have to do? I organized a lot of things, but I can’t remember well when I tried to say it.

Bastian replied, who was staring at me from the other side.

“Then why don’t you go on a picnic downtown?”

“…in downtown?”

I fixed my rolling eyes to Bastian. He fixed his eyes gently.

“To buy things, to look back on the capital,” I then blinked at his unexpected remark.

“Is that okay?”

“There’s no one holding you back.”

I am slightly dazed by Bastian’s words. Looking back, I couldn’t think of going to the downtown area all by myself.

Why did I think it is necessary and mandatory for me not to go out?

After a moment of contemplation, I soon found an answer.

Why not, it’s because of my excellent veins that is good in kidnapping and confinement.

As I was reciting lamentably inside, I suddenly bit the thought that crossed my mind.

“Huh? Wait.”

I thought about how to break through the fountain stone supply, but if I can get out of the duchy, things will be much easier.

Having to read the original plot, I knew better than anyone else where to deal with all of it.

I, who made a quick decision, pointed my hand at the table and shone my eyes.

“Then can I go on the weekend?”

“Of course.”

“Really?”

“There’s no reason for me not to allow you.”

Bastian’s permission is immediately dropped.

I pressed down a grin that is simply amazed with it.

Isn’t that a little too quick for her? At this rate, I could save money in half a year, not a whole year. It won’t be difficult if I get a full moon stone.

“Then while I’m out, I’ll buy the maid’s bed and replace all the old stuff.”

As much as I did, I answered calmly so that I won’t be able to reveal my dark innermost thoughts.

“I’ve already thought about it, and I’m proud of you.”

Bastian now started looking at me with his chin.

Then a happy smile shone around his mouth. He looked like he is looking at a well-raised child.


Suddenly, I felt embarrassed, coughed in vain, and corrected my posture.

“Then on weekends…”

It was then.

The dining hall is stained with glass smashed like a boomerang!

In a flash, Bastian stood in front of me.

Wait? Is this a raid? And soon, with a thud, something snapped into my body.

“Ameliaak!!!!”

…what the hell is going on?
