by fnovelpia“Oh, really? The Grand Duke came by?”
Elisabeth achieved a great mental awakening two days ago,
So her aura was extraordinary when she entered Eugene’s room.
However, Eugene, who merely thinks of Elisabeth as a cute younger sister, does not possess the sharpness to discern the madness in Elisabeth’s eyes, which feels different from before.
Perhaps Eugene is more of a sister-obsessed fool than a brother-obsessed Elisabeth.
Therefore, Eugene simply welcomed his lovely Elisabeth with open arms as always, and they are having such everyday conversations.
Grand Duke Antoine had a conversation with Victoria two evenings ago, had breakfast with his youngest daughter Elisabeth the next morning, and then left for Helios, the capital of the Elysium Empire.
Eugene is being told about the situation by Elisabeth.
“Yes, Father told me to take good care of and look after my awakened brother. Of course, he didn’t spare any praise for you, Brother.”
Looking at Eugene’s disappointed face, Elisabeth conveyed Antoine’s words step by step, as if to comfort him.
From Eugene’s perspective, wasn’t this the adoptive father he was meeting after a full 2 years and 4 months?
As an adoptive son, Eugene feels sorry for not even being able to give the bare minimum greeting upon his return.
“Haha, really? I’m glad the Grand Duke praised me. The Empire’s Swordmaster, that is.”
And Eugene wanted to stand before Antoine with his awakened body.
Antoine is one of the Empire’s two official Swordmasters.
Eugene had been thinking, while returning to the Grand Duke’s residence after finishing the quest, that the very act of standing before him as an Awakened would serve as a great stimulus for his future path as a swordsman.
“Is the Grand Duke that dear to you, Brother?”
When Eugene genuinely rejoiced at the mention of Antoine praising him, Elisabeth tilted her head with a subtle expression and asked Eugene.
“Of course. He took me in when I was alone and raised me so well.”
Frankly, from Eugene’s perspective, Antoine is the most awkward person in the family.
That’s how father-son relationships usually are, and especially so between an adoptive son and adoptive father.
Also, Antoine wasn’t home often compared to the women of the Grand Duke’s family, and he wasn’t very affectionate.
Elisabeth’s current head-tilting is a reaction created because she has also felt such a current.
Moreover, as a future swordsman, she has seen her father looking down on Eugene and giving strength to Victoria.
However, Antoine is the one who allowed Eugene to grow up within the absolute love of the Grand Duke’s women. How could he not feel grateful as a human being?
“Hmm… but the one spending time with you now, Brother, is me, Elisabeth.”
But Elisabeth is displeased with even that.
This time alone with Eugene is so precious to her,
She wants her brother to focus solely on her during that time.
“What are you talking about, Elisabeth? I always focus on you. That’s why I rushed back here as soon as the quest disbanded, because I wanted to spend time with you.”
Eugene protested with a playful tone.
He has every right to.
Wasn’t he, Eugene Schneider, suppressing his desire to have sex while sticking by Jeanne’s side all day?
He achieved that abstinence and returned to be with his younger sister Elisabeth, so he is expressing his intentions so clearly.
“Your reaction is so pleasing, Brother.”
Smiling…!
Elisabeth was pleased, wearing a subtle smile at her brother’s dynamic appearance, which had always treated her with affection.
“But you know, Brother.”
Then Elisabeth made a puzzled expression again.
“Something doesn’t seem like a small change has happened to you?”
Elisabeth realized that a distinct change had occurred in Eugene.
“Change??”
Eugene paused slightly at Elisabeth’s words.
‘What is it? What change did Elisabeth notice? Did she sense my demonic energy? Or did she realize I achieved the second awakening?’
In the past few days, Eugene had achieved too many changes, even by his own reckoning.
He broke through the Sword Expert limit, the second awakening.
Demonic energy began to manifest in earnest.
He lost his virginity.
Of course, Eugene’s reaction now didn’t take losing his virginity into account.
“…..”
Elisabeth watched Eugene like that for a few seconds, remaining silent with an inscrutable expression.
“I think you’ve achieved the second awakening?”
The keyword she mentioned afterward was Eugene Schneider’s attainment of Sword Expert.
“You can tell that quickly?”
Eugene’s eyes widened as a result.
Usually, someone’s awakening status is identified at least in the process of fighting.
And most of the time, it is judged by looking at concrete symptoms such as mana footwork or sword energy.
However, Elisabeth showed a reaction close to certainty right away, without such a foundation.
“Your sister is the top student of the Magic Tower, Brother. I’m a child with record-breaking grades, Brother. Mental-type awakeners have a knack for sensing mana, but I’ve far surpassed that level.”
Elisabeth smiled, as if finding Eugene’s widened eyes cute, and answered.
Elisabeth, who read the spell-locked ancient texts based on her mental abilities manifested under the user alpha trait,
She just doesn’t express it due to her personality, but she is grasping more than what others think.
“Especially since you are not yet familiar with Sword Expert energy, Brother, so your control is not perfect. That’s why I was able to figure it out more easily. If you were a more skilled Sword Expert, it would have taken me a little longer to notice, Brother.”
“Ah, I see.”
Of course, that is relative.
Currently, 20-year-old Elisabeth is also a top-class magician at the Expert level as a magician.
That’s why, if Eugene had been a skilled person familiar with the Expert level for a long time, he wouldn’t have had his second awakening situation revealed in such a futile way.
“Congratulations, Brother. Actually, I have always believed in you and thought you were special, but regardless of that, I can’t hide this joyful feeling. To achieve the second awakening, an awakener above awakeners! And at such a young age!”
“Haha, I just think I was lucky. The Pilgrim’s Path seems to have acted as a great connection for me.”
“I think that connection should also be seen as something brought about by your specialness, Eugene. Please consider it a sincere word from a magician, not just something I’m saying.”
The absolute support of a brother-obsessed younger sister,
Eugene was embarrassed and acted modestly.
But Elisabeth’s praise for him never thought of fading away.
“Hmm… since you’ve achieved the second awakening, may this younger sister give you a gift, Brother?”
At that moment, Elisabeth made a slightly thoughtful expression, and then conveyed her intention to give a gift to her brother, who had achieved considerable success as a swordsman.
“A gift? I already have armor and a greatsword. Is there anything that could be a gift?”
When the story of a gift came up, Eugene scratched his head slightly and made an expression asking if there was anything suitable.
Eugene had vaguely heard that those who achieved the second awakening as Sword Experts undergo a major equipment overhaul. They do it themselves, and in cases where there are many colleagues, they take care of it as a gift for the second awakening.
However, since the greatsword class is not as sensitive to the details of equipment compared to other classes,
There doesn’t seem to be a reason to replace it right now.
“Have you ever heard of a weapon inventory for Expert levels, Brother?”
However, the gift that top-class magician Elisabeth had in mind was not that.
“Ah! I’ve heard of it, a weapon inventory that only some people at the Expert level have!”
Weapon Inventory,
An inventory in the form of a barrier that stores weapons in a subspace pocket and takes them out again.
It can be seen as an ability that can be possessed by Experts whose mana activation exceeds a certain level.
However, the characteristic is that it cannot be acquired on its own.
It is something that top-class magicians or higher create for other awakeners who have surpassed the Expert level.
“I’ve only heard about it and never actually seen it. I saw one Sword Expert on the Pilgrim’s Path, but that person didn’t have a weapon inventory either.”
However, those noble magicians, especially top-class magicians or higher, would never willingly perform that task.
So usually, even if they are Experts, only Experts who have reached a considerable level of mastery or awakeners at the Sword Seeker level have weapon inventories.
Excluding such careers and absolute stats, it can be equipped through friendship,
It is not easy for lower-class noble Sword Experts, roughly 1 to 5 years old, to create such a friendship with magicians unless they are nobles of considerable status.
Therefore, the weapon inventory is a rare piece of equipment.
“But my Eugene has me, Elisabeth. An existence who is a top-class magician and the top student of the Magic Tower. So, although you are a Sword Expert who has just had the second awakening, you can have a weapon inventory.”
Smiling…!
Elisabeth wore a proud smile as she watched Eugene share his experiences and information.
After all, the world is about school ties, regional ties, and family ties.
Some people try to make friends with magicians by standing in line, risking their lives, and participating in quests,
But Eugene was born and his dad’s friend was a Grand Duke, and his daughter was a genius magician.
Moreover, even though he is an unrelated brother, she is a brother-obsessed person who is eager to do anything more for him.
Eugene, who had suffered a lot in his previous life and the early part of his current life, is finally seeing the sun rise in his life.
“But, such work is said to have a significant meaning for magicians. That’s why they don’t do it often.”
However, Eugene truly cherishes and loves his younger sister Elisabeth.
In other words, not in any other position, but as Elisabeth’s brother, he is not the kind of person who would recklessly exploit her abilities for his own benefit.
When a magician donates talent to someone, it is on a different level than simply receiving money and selling goods.
By way of comparison, it is no different from a master craftsman delivering his famous sword to a renowned swordsman.
In that case, if the swordsman is incompetent or commits dishonorable acts, the craftsman’s name will also be tarnished.
The magician’s creation of a weapon inventory also has such a mechanism, so
Naturally, noble magicians would exercise their unique pickiness and create weapon inventories for people who would not tarnish their reputation.
Elisabeth is currently the most promising prospect of the Magic Tower and the number one genius in the general magic field who will lead the future of the Empire.
Eugene is well aware that his younger sister Elisabeth also takes pride in that and is studying hard.
Therefore, he is cautious about taking advantage of a friend’s chance and damaging her reputation.
“What do you mean, Brother?”
Squeeze…!
Then Elisabeth made an expression that it was absurd and held Eugene’s hands tightly in her hands.
“No honor is greater to me than my brother’s love. If it’s something that will help you, especially if it’s something important that will be used on the battlefield, it’s ultimately related to my brother’s life, so nothing is more meaningful to this younger sister than that.”
That’s right, love,
If there is anything that surpasses school ties, regional ties, and family ties, it is love.
It is clearly the best justification and a motivation that provides extreme exhilaration.
Elisabeth appealed to her beloved brother not to ignore such a sublime reason.
“Ah! I see…! Yes, Elisabeth, you’re right. There is clearly such familial love between you and me! Okay. I will really become the best swordsman. So, I will grow into a person who further elevates my younger sister’s name.”
Eugene changed his mind after feeling the value of that love.
He just needs to become the best, as he had already said.
Hadn’t Eugene already promised Jeanne that he would become an alpha male?
Recalling that ambitious mindset, Eugene decided to gladly accept his younger sister’s help.
“Then shall we start making the weapon inventory, Brother…?”
Smirk…!
Looking at Eugene’s determined face,
Elisabeth, who is still unaware that Eugene is a younger sister fool, smiled with eyes that certainly contained no small amount of madness.
‘An unbreakable link between Brother and me, through my *there*… Hehehe…’
Intrigue,
It was a sinister smile where the insidious plot of a *yandere* brother-obsessed younger sister lies.
