“How have you been, Grand Duchess?”

“Of course. Thanks to Elsie, I’m staying safe and well, Harvey.”

The two greeted each other politely.

In the original work, the setting was that Amelia treated Brother Harvey like an ornament. In the novel I read, Brother Harvey liked Amelia, but there was no particular light of affection on Brother Harvey’s face now.

Perhaps the reason such feelings could arise in the novel was because Amelia and Brother Harvey had been together for a long time. In other words, in the novel, Brother Harvey, not me, took the place of childhood friends. In the end, it was Adele, not my brother, who connected Amelia. .

… … .

… … Ah, anyway, my older brother, whom I met after a long time, seemed fine with no injuries. At least there were no visible wounds.

“Elsie, how have you been?”

“Yes, that’s right. How have you been, brother?”

“I’ve been doing well. The situation in Delki City is fairly stable now. It’ll probably be resolved in a few more years, but even if the situation seems favorable, it can change in an instant, so you shouldn’t be too relaxed.◦ #◦

My brother looked quietly at my face and said.

“I will make sure it is completed so that you can return safely.”

“… … Thank you.”

The character Elsie del Kissi did not appear in the novel. However, since the world in the novel was this world, the character Elsidel Kissi, who did not appear, must have existed somewhere at the same time.

And El Sidel Chisi probably didn’t spend as much safe time outside as I did.

“You don’t have to feel too guilty. You do what you have to do. Even if it wasn’t you, someone we asked about would have been here.”

Brother Harvey’s comfort still brightened my dark heart a little. Of course, in the novel, my brother followed me instead. It was the same in the original work.

It would be better for me or someone here. Your brother would be a much better force than me.

“So, are your wolves okay?”

“I’m on my way back after meeting you a little while ago.”

My brother didn’t seem to care about the fact that I came back late at night. He probably thought that I should be safe. In Delki City, people don’t think that they can’t go outside just because the night has fallen. In the first place, the midnight sun and the polar night It was the northernmost point in existence, so thinking that I couldn’t go out at night was like saying I would stay indoors all season long.

“Is everyone in your family doing well?”

“Of course. My father, mother, and brothers are all well.”

Those words put me at ease a little.

“… … .”

The conversation stopped for a moment.

My brother sipped his tea and looked around the mansion. It wasn’t a particularly wary look, but rather an expression of interest. This was, in a way, more luxurious than Grand Duke Grattenmount’s castle, so it was only natural.

You may have passed through several cities on your way to the royal road, but I think there is no city more spectacular than the royal capital.

To be honest, I was impressed when I first came.

“… … I’m sorry. Actually, I’ve never had a conversation like this before.”

Nae Nae-hyung smiled bitterly and said with a slightly troubled expression.

It’s worth it. Most people in Delki City live within the territory of Delki City, so there aren’t that many occasions to ask about their well-being when they’re far away. The relatively small number of people means that rumors and news spread that quickly. If someone is out of the ordinary When something happens, it comes to you quickly.

It’s also inevitable that I’m not used to this type of conversation.

“Um, okay, have you made many friends?”

“I’m getting to know you little by little. I’m still on my way back from spending time with a new friend I made.”

“Oh, really?”

My brother said with an interested expression.

“That friend… … therefore… … .”

“Smaller than me, of course.”

“I guess so.”

The people of Del Key City are not used to being short or tall based on a person’s height. Because there is so much basic height difference, it is difficult to tell how short or tall someone is by looking at the height of people outside of Del Key City. Del Key City By Kishi people’s standards, the whole story is just tall.

In fact, the sight of Brother Harvey sitting on a sofa tailored to the body shape of an average person was a bit comical. Can we say that he looked like he was sitting on a child’s chair?

“My name is Lady Carlins, and if you wish, I can introduce you to her. No, since we may run into each other here often in the future, I will almost definitely introduce you.”

While saying that, I looked towards Amelia and saw that Amelia also nodded.

“Yes, Lady Carlins is a wonderful person, so she and Harvey might agree in many ways.”

“Kuhm.”

Brother Harvey’s cheeks blushed slightly at Amelia’s words.

Amelia was very young when she often saw him, but now she has grown up enough to be considered a lady. And of course, the ‘Lady Carlins’ that Amelia is talking about is also of a similar age, so it is a bit difficult for her older brother who is still lacking in shyness. It may have been a horse.

It wasn’t a very pleasant sight in my situation if the man blushed, but Brother Harvey was one of the main male characters in romantic fantasies, so he was handsome.

And in the eyes of Amelia, who was originally a woman, the scene seemed very heartwarming.

“How long do you plan on staying here?”

When Amelia asked with a soft smile, her older brother scratched his cheek with his index finger.

“If you give me permission, I was thinking about 1 to 2 weeks… … .”

“Oh my, are you very busy?”

“No, that’s not it. However, I feel like it will be a hassle if I stay too long… … .”

“You are Elsie’s older brother. Please make yourself as comfortable as you want to be. Please make sure you get over your illness and talk a lot with your only sister. I will also serve you with all my heart.”

“Thank you so much.”

In fact, in terms of status, Amelia was higher, but she still seemed to be conscious of the fact that she was the older brother of my friend.

hmm… … I like staying here with my family, but… … .

I glanced at my brother’s face.

Every time Amelia spoke to him, my brother blushed shyly. He knew that it was inevitable. From a man’s point of view, Amelia was a very pretty girl.

Luckily, Amelia didn’t show any affection towards Brother Harvey.

No, when I think about it again, I have never shown any particular affection towards men. Rather, out of all the men I have met, my attitude toward my older brother was the softest.

I decided to raise the alarm in my head by about half a level.

Even though I don’t show affection for my older brother, looking at his reactions to the men I’ve met so far, the person with the highest chance of becoming the one is my older brother.

… … Well, it would be nice to have Amelia by my side if my brother and Amelia are connected, but… … .

… … Somehow I get more upset than imagining Adele and Amelia getting together.

That doesn’t mean I’m planning on kicking him out. Anyway, he’s my older brother, and I have affection for him as a family member. A part of my heart was filled with joy and happiness at seeing him after such a long time.

My caution is limited to Amelia being connected to her older brother.

It’s so selfish of me to think this way, but I want Amelia to be with me until she grows old.

… … If you like Amelia so much that you can’t help it, I can’t object anymore.

*

“But, even though it’s been such a long time since we last met, you still use the title ‘hyungnim’.”

“Because my brother is my brother.”

After showing my brother, who must have been tired after coming all the way, to his room, Amelia and I gathered together in Amelia’s room like we always do at the end of the day.

I had changed into clothes for sleeping.

“Did you say that you were used to that title because you were the only ones who came from above?”

“Yeah, well, that’s right.”

In reality, I still have memories of being a man, so I just don’t want to be called Oppa or Bunny.

“Now that you’ve grown up, you’re almost like an adult, so why don’t you sort out your titles?”

“My family also tried to correct it for several years and failed?”

Amelia laughed at my words.

Then he put his elbow on the table, rested his chin and looked at me.

The smiling expression on his face was very beautiful, but for some reason, I felt a little uncomfortable staring at me with that expression.

“… … Why do you look at me like that?”

“I just think that’s kind of like Elsie. Did you know that you’re quite stubborn?”

“Who can say anything.”

When I glanced at Amelia with a puzzled expression, she just chuckled again.

Why are you doing this all of a sudden?

I don’t understand.
