BOTB Chapter 9 (1)|Not Alone

“Brother Cabel!”

Finally, Cabel is back. We were greeted by the second brother that had just entered the mansion.

“You’re here. I thought you’d be in Schumaha for a while.”

“Hello, Aunt.”

In a few months, Cabel seemed to have been given extreme care under Schumaha, as Eugene said.

He wasn’t losing weight or anything as he had been lying on bed for a while, and I didn’t see any sickness on his face.

“Brother.”

Erich, who doesn’t have any way to talk
with other people, first opened his mouth to Cabel. But Cabel just stared at him, and then he quickly avoided his gaze.

Huh?What.The second brother did not feel the same energy as before. Cabel fluttered around for a moment with a sense of discomfort.

Looking at it, Mrs. Leonold’s face was sad.

“There is no Eugene. His younger brother who’s been back for a long time, but he’s not very warm and not too kind to welcome you. Cabel, don’t be too disappointed. It’s not like that Eugene doesn’t want to see you.”

Wha-t. I frowned as I looked up at Mrs. Leonard next to me. It was strange as I listen quietly. Why did she say that? It seems like Eugene deliberately replaced Cabel.

“Of course. The one who most waiting for brother Cabel’s return is brother Eugene.”

I know it best. As he said that brother Cabel is coming. Yo. It has been my main skill to say what I want to and pretend to be innocent.

“I know that older brother Eugene had also told aunt earlier in the morning, but you must have already forgotten?”

Then she shook her eyes towards me. Aunt, you don’t like that? So why do you say something that? Just like trying to tickle things between the brothers.

“Cabel, you’re having a hard time coming a long way.”

“I..”

“Oh, I was neglected. Do entering and take a rest.”

Mrs. Leonard turned to Cabel and then greeted Erich.

“Aunt, I want to be with my brother…”

“No, he’s still sick, so he have to rest a lot. Erich doesn’t want to make his sick brother harder right? Isn’t he a good boy?”

Good god. I didn’t know what kind of face I was making as I looking at their backs, that went inside the house.

Before Cabel came back, I thought she was simply treating me and Erich as a discrimination, but….

The appearance of Mrs. Leonard, who was just weird, became complicated in my mind, but once I pushed away the thoughts in my head, I turned my head back toward Cabel.

“Brother Cabel.”

In my call, Cabel’s blue eyes turned to me. I am definitely more heartfelt than before, I opened my mouth looking at his darkened eyes.

“Come on.”

And when he came back, the first thing I wanted to say was out of my mouth.

At the spring hunting competition, he laughed with the Ernst couple and left the mansion for a few months, after the incident, it’s also been a while since he come back home.

“Welcome back brother Cabel.”

Then Cabel looked at me with his eyes wide open like a man who had heard a word he had never thought of.

However, Cabel’s face was suddenly distorted.

With his fists tight, he ran past me without saying a hemisphere. No, it’s not a reaction I expect.

Didn’t a person at least come and greet you when you come home?

I didn’t expect anything like an emotional
reunion between you and me, but isn’t this a little too cold?

You can talk to me about how you’ve been doing well. I felt sadness for some reason, and looked at the cabel as he going up the stairs.

*******

“What about Cabel?”

Eugene also ask about second brother as
soon as he returned.

“He’s upstairs.”

Hubert said, trying to go directly to Cabel’s room, but before Eugene moved a few steps, Cabel appeared from above.

“Cabel.”

Eugene stop freezing cold. His face that hard recently been seen seemed to be released at most gently.

It’s been almost half a year since the two face-to-face. But something unexpected happened.

While watching Eugene, Cabel, who gradually became harder, suddenly started to jump and ran away.

“Cabel!”

Eugene hurriedly called him, but to no avail. Cabel quickly disappeared before our eyes.

I saw Eugene’s face change as if he was hurt. Of course it seemed like no one but me had seen it.

“I will bring him to you again.”

Hubert was puzzled by Cabel’s actions, but Eugene raised his hand and swept his face a couple of times before returning to his original cold face.

“No, you don’t have to. Cabel just going to get tired as it is now, so just let him rest.”

Mrs. Leonard went home earlier.

Eugene went to his study, Erich is spending time with Penny in his room,
and Hubert can’t force him to bring Cabel. So I’m the only one left?

Oh my, it’s my turn. I grieved inward and moved a heavy step toward the second brother.

“Brother Cabel.”

“Brother Cabel?”

Where the hell are you hiding, this brother? I go through the rooms and the play room was opened.

It felt cold in a room where none of us had gone since the Ernst couple died.

At first, the clothes that Cabel wore acted is a protective color, so I didn’t know much, but now I saw that the curtains
in the corner of the room were slightly convex.

The second brother of this house is squatting and hiding behind the curtain.

“Go away…!”

Cabel yelled, who felt like I was getting closer. I quickly became tired.

After the third brother, now the second brother?

However, I told myself to endure it three times with the inner wall passed down to me. Besides, as I listened to his voice now, I can guessed what he was doing in the curtain.

“Cih, I told you to go away!”

I ignored the swaying curtains and sat next to him.

“I’m going to do what I want to do.”

The curtains screamed loudly in my words. Soon, a more uplifted voice rang
inside than before.

“I’m not crying!”

“Yes, my brother is not crying.”

“I’m really not crying!”

“Yes, yeah.”

Except for his boasting pride, it’s not the second brother I know. It wasn’t that I didn’t have anything to say to Cabel,
but I thought it would be better to just let him cry now.

“Hey.”

The stubborn nose-blind sound coming from inside the curtain sounded a bit
funny, but I did not laugh.

“Brother Cabel, I don’t know anything. Crying is not embarrassing.”

Rather, it’s better to cry when you want to cry. Feelings that can’t be sent out and keep standing inside will only boil yourself.

“It’s better than when you need to cry, but you couldn’t cry.”

I didn’t know who I was talking to, and it rang in a quiet room and soon returned to my ears. I don’t know if Cabel heard me or not.

Intermittently, the crying sound gradually increased. I just pretended not to hear the sound that digging in my ear. After a while, Cabel spoke in a small voice.

“But I’m not, uh, I don’t cry.”

It’s so like Cabel to the end, so I laughed a little bit even if it didn’t fit this situation.

“I don’t know if it would be quicker to teach young miss to be courteous or to break the cane sooner.”

“I’m sorry, Madam. I am ashamed of my
inexperience, so I understand that you are so contemptible to me.”

“Are you being disrespectful? I’m just point out the lack spirit fire of Ernst’s on you. I’m just worried about honor.”

“Are you sure?”

But my eyeswere so cold and chilly like the winter breeze, so I thought she even felt it from me.

“I don’t put up with such personal feelings in educating young children.”

“Oh, sure, isn’t it? But I’m not sure that Madam, who is more polite than anyone, will do such a nasty and ugly action against a young girl like me.”

I said towards the person.

“What! Young miss, now….”

It was very noticeable that she seemed to notice that there was a bone in my word, but I said again with a pity toward the witty Madam.

“Ah, I’m sorry. Was it my excuse? As you knows, I’m still not good at manners… However, I believe that if you are a lady yourself, you will understand that.”

In her face, I just asked whether the madam was deliberate or not.

It seemed to be done. She still felt uncomfortable, but she didn’t add anything else to me.

“Today, you’ll study how to walk.
If you drop the book from above your head, I’ll give you punishment to it.”

Now, walking study is really a fundamental lesson. Hah! I stand down and walked across her front with my usual steps.

Anyway, I’ll just go with it!

“Now, start now.”

I stepped forward with a book on my head. Hah! Do you think I can’t do anything?

For 20 years I’ve been practicing aristocratic etiquette with how much effort I’ve made not to be laughed at by you, but
in the last few months of class, my maid has caught up with me even though I haven’t made any mistakes.

I already knew that I was going to get
punished.

Tak!

“Oh!”

So if you’re going to beat me anyway, I’ll give you a poop. I pretended to ankle cleanly as I passed by in front of the table
where Madam sat.

My body, out of balance, tilted sideways at once. The book on my head fell first, and then my body sat down to the table.

Just before I fell over to Madam, I pulled the tablecloth with all my weight.

Tak! Kachang!

“Ugh!”

While I was falling, I was influenced by gravity, and the things on the table pour down with the cloth I pulled.

I smiled at the screams of Madam crying shout in my ears.

Thanks to the good angle control, my clothes only had a little bit of tea on them, but the dress of Madam, who only had a proper refreshment in her class each
time, had a chiffon cake in front of her and covered with black tea, raspberry jam and sugar.

“Young miss! What the hell is this…?”

“Huk, sorry, madam! Because I stopped my ankles! What is this?”

I stood up with a confused face, and I approached the madam.

“I’ll wipe it off!”

And I pretend to wipe her messy dress, smeared chocolate jam on my hands and
smeared it even more on her dress.

Her elegant beige dress was quickly
stained with brown stains.

“Oh! I didn’t know there was chocolate on my hands! It should be washed with water!”

“Young miss! Wait a minute…”

The madam, who was abusing me, looked at me picking up the vase from the side
table next to the sofa, and hurriedly opened it, I threw water from the vase as if I could not hear her word.

“Now, I think It will wipe off when I rub it!”

“Stop, can’t you stop right now?!”

The madam new voice yell rang out in the room. Then, the maids who heard the turmoil outside came in.

They were amazed at the messed room and started cleaning around.

The madam’s stained dress also began to come off with a few sticks, but it only smeared the stain, and it didn’t get any clean.

“This! Whan an expensive dress is!”

The madam, of course, was angry.

“I’m sorry, Madam.”

I pretended to be pitiful and made a sinful look at her side.

As if she hated it, she left the room without saying a word of greeting. I smiled rottenly behind her leaving her place, waving her hem.

Ha, I’m suing a little. I’m able to see the Madam who losing her dignity like that and I feel excited.

It was the nobility of the nobleman, and
while doing everything, I did get rid all of her elegance alone, but because there were maid sisters cleaning up the room, I tried to pretend that I didn’t know what to do because of the mistakes I made.

“I’m sorry sister maid. I’ll help too.”

I approached the maid nearby.

“No.”

Then she replied with a short answer, and I sighed.

When I looked at it with a speech or expression, it seemed to be annoying because I made a good effort with my mistake.

“But, are you the new sister maid I see today?”

In fact, she was a person who I had been watching for a few days, but I asked without a suspicious tone.

“Yes, I started working at Ernst a while
ago.”

“There were sisters I couldn’t even recognize in the dining room.”

“A few people were brought out this time together.”

The maid continued to do what she was doing, replied to me.

Hmm. I deliberately called her ‘sister’ and said it, but she didn’t correct the title, and she didn’t say goodbye. Even now, she hasn’t even helped me.

Originally, the existing servant were not like this, but they seemed to ignore me at a glance.

“Sister, I’ll help too.”

“How can I do this to young miss?”

“I uses to did this a lot.”

Then, the expression “I guess” appeared on the maid’s face. As expected, from the beginning, she was clear knowing where I was from.

“Then aunt will be mad at me if I do it?”

“Yeah.”

When I heard that, I asked ‘hesitatingly,’ and asked ‘carefuly’ and shook my mouth as I opened the 2-stage defense team.

“Then I don’t want to do it…. I’m afraid of my aunt….”

As I squeaked my feet and gave off a dead voice, the maid’s attitude just got a little relaxed than I did before.

“Are you scared of being scolded by the madam?”

“Madam has always been strict with us.”

“Oh, you’re the sister maid who was originaly in Leonard.”

I mimic the innocent child again. I said to her in light tone.

“So this time, my new sisters seemed to be close to each other. I don’t have any
friends…”

The maid started walking after the stained carpet, and then often walked along with other maids who left the room first.

“Then play with me again, sister.”

I sent a maid with a smile. Then I close my eyes and narrowed down and thought about it. Mrs. Leonard, what the hell is
that woman doing?

Ernst’s servants are changed at her will. Perhaps Eugene wouldn’t have left that real power to her?

Someone might have thought that it was just a few new maids, but it wasn’t that simple. It was the hostess’s job to choose the people who worked in the family.

The duchess job to be precise. No matter how much she can do, what she’s doing right now is like a monthly pass.

I narrowed my eyes down and worried. Mrs. Leonold will be with Erich again? What is Cabel doing alone? Cabel’s tutor
didn’t seem to be calling yet.

Anyway, I don’t know why the second
brother avoiding Eugene.

Even when he went to Schumaha, he was refused to meet Eugene, so he ended up not having to go to meet Cabel any more since two months ago.

I was told, though, that he had taken the
time to send the letters. So for some reason, this time, When I heard, I thought the two were doing better than I did.

I recalled the suspicious appearance of Mrs. Leonard, who I had just seen for a moment.

I don’t know if it was intentional or not to tell Cabel that way, but I thought it would be okay if I watched a little more.

If I were really 9 years old I would have just gone over it.

But fortunately, I’m not.

That night, Marquis Leonard came to visit Eugene. Eugene was home early because of Cabel. Of course, Cabel was still avoiding Eugene.

“I opposed it.”

I wondered what the two people were talking about, and I approached the sneaky door.

Of course, it was bad to overheard, but it was common sense of the general public, so I knew it. But one thing I’m curious about. I listened to the door and focused my attention.

“My brothers will stay in Ernst.”

“Don’t be stubborn.”

“Stubborn? Isn’t it the most obvious thing that Ernst family member will be staying in
Ernst?”

“Eugene, aren’t you overwhelmed by yourself right now? I don’t think you’re going to be able to handle all of these things alone.”

Eugene’s frosty voice stuck in my eardrum.

“Do you think you’re saying this to persuade me now?”

I realized now that he was quietly angry.

“I gave the same answer to aunt, but did you not receive it?”

Even though I didn’t know in detail, it seemed that what Marquis Lenoard had
just said to Eugene is to leave his younger brothers somewhere else.

And Eugene was giving the same chill now.

“Ernst now is all in my powers. I have made my intention clear, and there is no compromise in this.”

“Eugene”

“And don’t be mistaken. The man standing here now is the head of the current Ernst, who inherits all the rights of the family, not your little nephew.”

For a moment I was holding my breath without my knowledge.

The person in this door was no longer the young Eugene I knew. He was becoming an adult at a much faster rate than I thought.

“Don’t think you’re misunderstand this.”

After that, Leonard seemed to have lost
something to say, as he no longer tried to persuade Eugene.

No, I should say that he gave up on pressing Eugene. Just before, his words really didn’t sound like Eugene’s voice.

“I’m sure you shouldn’t forget that a young child who needs to be cared for by adults is nowhere in the room.”

I left the door quietly at the end of the cool voice. When I entered my room, I closed the door and just chewed the previous conversation.

Could I have been tied to the brothers Marquis of Lenoard said?

If so, would he have asked Eugene to leave me with relatives along with other brothers, or to leave this house? It was probably the latter.

‘Why don’t you send her to orphanage?’

What the madam once said to Eugene suddenly passed by.

‘She doesn’t fit Ernst. Eugene, there’s no reason why you should take care of her even now.’

But even after that, Eugene did not let me out of Ernst.

Somehow, whatever things happen that day, I even thought that maybe he’s so busy that he’s forgetting me.

However, when we met each other
occasionally, he never said that, and would give a cool gaze while looking at me squatting out of the house.

Perhaps I was grateful for that, but the words that Mrs. Lenoard said, digging into my memory every time after that, making me shrink.

If I don’t listen, I might kick it out. If I go against her, he might let me out of this house. I’d rather be pressed by three brother.

I thought like a habit of wanting to leave,
but honestly I was afraid of leaving this house.

So I lived for 20 years, but if I’m going to be in Ernst in the future, should I continue to live with that thought in secret?

The scene like a lantern in front of the wind hasn’t come and improved anymore. I hate that too…

I thought.

*****

“Cabel, talk to me.”

One day, he couldn’t stand it anymore,
Eugene went to Cabel in person.

“I have nothing to say.”

“No, there is.”

“I don’t want to hear it.”

Cabel stubbornly turned away from Eugene.

“I don’t want to hear everything you say.”

Following that, Eugene’s hand holding Cabel’s arm was a little more powerful then went off.

Oh, that look is like an explosion that’s going to explode soon, but Eugene seemed to be trying to erase emotions by biting it for a while, instead of yelling at
his brother.

However, his attempts were only half as successful, and after a while, Eugene’s mouth vomited his exalted voice.

“Cabel, please don’t do this to me.”

It sounded more like a favor or a plea than anger. I was surprised at the weak appearance that Eugene first showed up in front of his brother.

It was a different form of acceptance for the second brother.

Immediately after returning to Ernst, he shook his face when he had been in front of him, then shook Eugene’s hands and ran.

“Cabel!”

I quickly disappeared behind the wall when I saw Eugene chasing behind Cabel.

“Did you two fight?”

Oh, I’m surprised. After hearing the voices
of the two people, Erich also appeared out of the room.

Even nowadays, he wander outside every night, so the third brother seems to have no energy. But being here….

“Eugene and Cabel had a quarrel?”

He also came with his aunt. While in Ernst, Mrs. Leonard always with Erich by her side, and it was clear that he was still in the room and heard a fuss there…

“Originally brothers are fighting and growing with that.”

But is it because of your meddling? Yo. As always, she changed herself and began to
act around Erich.

“Erich, don’t bother your older brothers and go with aunt….”

“I’m going to my brothers.”

But for the first time, Erich took his aunt’s hand off him.

“Where did my brothers go?”

“Oh, I’m going with you too.”

I glanced at Mrs. Leonard’s disgruntled expression, and then I just moved in the direction that the two of them disappeared. How come?

No way…

It was not the right answer.

Erich, who was only indoors all day, wrapped in Mrs. Lennold’s skirt width, and with his sleepwalking, seemed to feel the limits of his fitness.

“Would you like me to accompany you?”

“I don’t need it.”

The third brother stared at me, reacting sensitively as he knowthat I was worried
about himself.

“Is this the right way? No one is here.”

“I guess they went somewhere else.”

“You go over there. I’ll go over there and find them.”

“Then, what if you fall down when you’re alone?”

“Noisy! Who’s gonna falls down?”

It was already difficult, so Erich was on the buzzing topic. Still, he was much better than when he was helpless like a
depressed person.

I splitted up with Erich and started looking for the two brothers. If you see no sound coming in, has Eugene ever missed Cabel?

Since he was a child, he was shooting a lot here and there, so it was the second brother that when there was a disagreement, he’ll always be running.

Let’s see. Where is the second brother likely to go?

After thinking about it for a while, I headed to the garden whom used to catch and play (and ‘pained’) with Cabel before.

Rustling

My feelings were right. I found the Cabel hidden behind a flowering bush.

“Brother Cabel!”

Seeing me in front of his eyes, Cabel opened his eyes wide.

“You, what are you doing!”

Last time, and this time, he was surprised to see myself finding him.

“Don’t call my name!”

I could not help but ask.

“Why do you avoid brother Eugene?”

Because it wasn’t happening in my previous life, Cabel’s rebellion was more weird. His lips were stubbornly bitten by my question.

I watched the blue eyes of Cabel gradually begin to flow.

“I….”

Finally, his lips opened again. It was a conflict between his desire to hide the words in his heart and the desire to confess to anyone.

So when I heard his words, I could not help but be surprised.

“He must have been angry when I came back freely.”

Am I hearing it right now?

“Brother, aren’t brother Cabel come back home because brother Eugene’s letter? So why would older brother be angry?”

Didn’t Eugene send him a letter?

“What letter? My brother never sent me anything like that.”

What….

I was speechless for a moment.

I knew that Eugene had a busy time splitting and sending a letter to Cabel to say hello and to ask him come back home, but has he never received it?

So where did the letter go missing?

“I came back home because I wanted to come, I came at my will. I knew my brother wouldn’t like me for coming, but still I want

to be back..”

“Why would you think brother Eugene would not like it?”

He was staring at the floor and yelling at my question.

“My brother, because he hates me…!”

The second time I was speechless. Cabel continued to raise his voice and shout his voice behind me.

“What are you talking about? Why does brother Eugene hate you?”

The thought Cabel’s thinking was a
ridiculous misunderstanding. I tried to tell him that Eugene was never in a stuffy heart to him.

Only Cabel’s screams were one step faster.

“Because I alive alone!”

I had to stop when I heard him.

“I, I came back alone, my dadand my mom wrapped me up, and that’s how it was… Then I was so dumb scared that I only knew that I was in their arm…”

“I made it alive. If I shouted for help, they might have come to the rescue…

“But I, I wonder if they will come back if I yell…. So I can’t make any noise like a
coward….”

The people that Cabel was afraid of were assassins who had attacked the hunting grounds.

When they handled them and opened the door of the broken wagon, the Ernst couple said they were already dead.

I thought it was only important that Cabel survived, and I couldn’t imagine what the feelings of Cabel whom being rescued from the scene would be.

According to Cabel, when he’s in the wagon, It meant that there was consciousness even after being chased and turned over because the accident.

And it was the fear of being trapped until someone else came in the wagon to pick up with the parents who had already died or were almost dead at the time, without being able to scream in fear.

“I’m scared he’ll ask why I’m back, but I want to come home even though I know he hate me.”

I can’t be too sad to see Cabel sitting crouched behind a bush of flowers and crying all the time, as I said,

“No, brother Cabel….”

I was going to tell him that what he said is a completely ridiculous idea. If only I didn’t hear a low voice from behind.

“Who was it?”

It was Eugene who showed up with the sound of stepping on a blade of grass.

Cabel raised his head in amazement that he wasn’t expecting Eugene to be here.

“Who the hell was talking to you that bullshit?”

Eugene’s anger was bitter. The voice that struck again was fierce and harsh, as if it weren’t his voice.

Cabel again attempted to escape, but this time Eugene hands held Cabel’s shoulders tight, as evidenced by the fact that Eugene had searching him so far.

“Don’t go and talk straight! I’m asking you who was talking to you that ridiculous bullshit!”

“Let me go!”

Cabel struggled, but Eugene rather strengthened his hand more strongly.

“Oh, stupid!”

I saw Eugene yelling so loud for the first time.

“There is no one who blame you in this house. There is no one who can blame you for coming back alive! Why don’t you know that!”

Eugene’s sincerity was felt even to me, so it would have been unreasonable not to reach Cabel.

“Well, you came back safely like this, It’s a miracle to us!”

At that moment, Cabel’s writhing stopped. He stood like a dead-spring doll and asked blankly at his brother.

“What do you think if I went instead of you?”

Eugene’s face and Cabel’s face were all messed up. Both of them seemed to want to cry, but it for my brother’s that I try hard to be patient with it.

“Would you hate me?”

At that question, Cabel bite his lips as if he endured the soaring inside. Then he shook his head and denied Eugene’s words.

“Then why do you think, we will hate you?””

“Even if it was one of us that was with our parents there, it’s the same. Do you think there is a reason to do something like resentment?”

Eugene lowered himself in line with Cabel’s eyes.

“Listen, Cabel.”

And he talked face to face with his brother’s eyes. Perhaps since the first day when Cabel came home, he wanted to do it.

“We’re so glad that you came back to this house, so….”

Eugene’s voice died for a moment, but he still didn’t stop talking. Cabel was standing still and listening to him as if he was frozen. Looked at the two, I’m feeling a little spicy.

“Thanks for coming back so safely, and
going back home in this healthy form.”

Anyone can see the affection in it, and the hand of Cabel he held.

“Thank you very much, Cabel.”

The black eyes that resembled his father’s eyes, the Duke of Ernst were all about his
younger brother’s heart.

Cabel’s face was distorted again. But now I seem to know why he frowns like that. Cabel, who failed to endure tears, burst
into tears.

It was a bit of sorrow, as long as he had endured.

I looked at the two people in front of me, they thought they were all alone but truthfully they were never alone in the first place.

“They’re going to do it themself, so I don’t have to be there.”

Erich was back in his room and hugged Penny. I pretended not to look like it,
but it was also difficult.

I wish you had seen the emotional scenes full of brother’s love.

Mrs. Leonard did not seem to have gone back in the meantime, and Eugene went out again and again without a time to coming in his room.

“Would you like to go to brother Cabel?”

“Later.”

Yes, he look really weak.

“Take some rest. When was it you became a weak bone like this?”

I don’t think I need to force him some exercise.

“Penny, eat this.”

“Woof!”

I gave the snack I prepared in a short time to Penny. Then Penny drooled and waved his tail. Still, Erich didn’t run over to me.

For a few months, Erich stays at home and sticks with Penny all the time when he’s gone. Even when I went around.

I felt sad when I saw him sitting in the bed for several hours a day holding the puppy. Erich didn’t like Penny waving her tail at me, but it didn’t stop me from giving her a snack.

Then, it seemed that the brother was much more limited to me than at this time in the past life.

Last time, the Ernst couple died as if they were because of me, but this time, no one is saying that.

‘Who’s your mom and dad?’

Cabel said to me, saying,

‘My mom and dad will only worried about you, the enemies I’ve been approaching have been like this.’

‘Brother’

‘Who’s your mom and dad here? If you don’t want to die, don’t say that in front of
me again!’

‘Brother!’

It was the day when Erich’s screams that screamed at the word ‘dying’ and the sound of Cabel throwing and kicking things around him were a nightmare.

Well, it was a good thing for me they didn’t bother me now. Is this because there is more time in the year we spent together than in the past?

So, have Erich gotten better to me than
before?

“What are you looking at? Stop your eyes from staring.”

It’s a lie. I still looked helpless and looked at the third brother, who just said something chilly.

But nowadays, you will also have a hard time, you knows. Getting better my ass

*******

I found out again that night, I thought Erich came out of bed again and watched the black shadow standing in front of the front door on the first floor as he watched safely and didn’t return to the room.

Looking closely, it was Eugene.

“Eu-“

I tried to call him but I stopped talking. Moonlight crosses his face diagonally.

There, Eugene stood up as if he had forgotten the time alone. When did you start standing here?

Then I couldn’t remember why he went out his room today. I thought he might be tired because he left the house to work after the incident with Cabel.

Perhaps due to the white moonlight, Eugene’s face seemed a bit pale.

Eugene, who had been sticking to his expressionless expression since day one, still looks like an ice crystal.

He was standing and staring at the front, but in reality his eyes seemed to be empty. Whether it was a long summer or autumn, there was a lot of cool air around.

I stood still, his dim eyes and his mouth seeming to be biting his teeth, and even in the distance, his nails clenched in his palms and his clenched fists came into my view.

After a while, Eugene moved away, as if he hadn’t sense me. I hide my figure like that and just stared at him.

I couldn’t figure out what Eugene was thinking, standing alone in the middle of the night. It was difficult to guess what made him so.

However, the memories of that night
remained in me for a long time ever since. With a sad heart for no reason.

The next morning, Eugene goes out because it said today is the day of the gathering between Ernst’s lineage and adulthood.

Perhaps that is why Mrs. Leonard did not even visit the mansion today.

“I’m worried about the bad weather today. I’ve heard that heavy rain is going to pour in the evening.”

“It’s not the purpose of goodwill, so it’s enough if you just tell them what you want to say. It won’t take too much time….”

After making an unfamiliar expression, he turned his head back to Hubert.

“Please take care of my brothers until I come back.”

“I will, Duke.”

“Brother, go with care.”

The words made him stopped as he’s heading toward the door. Soon Eugene looked at us and smiled with a smile.

“Yes, I’m going.”

At that time, I don’t know why his back was so striking. Eugene left the mansion, and soon after he left, it began to rain outside the window.

Shhh!

“It’s raining a lot.”

We’ve been gathering in the playroom for once, the three of us.

Of course, it wasn’t like we were playing together as we were before as we were sitting apart and spending time without a break.

When Cabel, who was standing by the window and looking out the window, said first, pulled Penny shortly from Erich, who
was holding her, spit out a voice like a pokemon.

“I hate rain.”

I agreed by looking at the raindrops hitting the window. And that day, an accident happened to Eugene.

It was said that when he was about to return to Ernst, the horse standing next to him suddenly rioted and turned around.

Eugene was caught in there and hurt his leg.

“Don’t cry. I’m fine.”

Eugene, sitting on his bed, had an incredibly cold face. I heard that he almost couldn’t use one of his leg because of this.

Even though it was obvious that the pain was great when I looked at his lips, his expression still like that.

At that, tears and runny noses were filled with crying, Cabel and Erich was crying.

“What do you mean by fine!”

“That’s enough that I’ve only hurt like this.”

Cabel had a face that he could not understand the cold Eugene from before. The same was true for Erich, who was jumping from the side.

“What were the adults doing?”

I opened my mouth after all the doctors and other servant who came to see Eugene’s condition left the room.

“There were so many people, but what were they doing when brother was in danger?!”

My face was probably as cold as Eugene. He asked me to not overheard by Cabel and Erich by his eyes. Eugene replied as if whispering low.

“Well, what were they doing?”

“They must have been wondering how to
effectively get ride of me quickly.”

I heard that the attackers on Eugene was
killed afterwards.

As if they were thinking, how would they think of a way to make Eugene surrender like a raving beast? All of this could only
heard in my ears, do I hear it right?

“I thought I was an adult myself, but I knew that it was still a young blue-eyed boy.”

At that time, what I found in Eugene was a complex feeling of mixed anger and humiliation, and suicidal and feverish feelings.

“Yeah, this feeling of helplessness is really for the first time.”

And above all else, the dark eyes of intense despair and hatred broke down in front of me.
