"Nothing. I was just talking to myself." my brother said, trying to play it cool.

Even so, he couldn't calm his beating heart.

Besides, he knew that our father was very sensitive.

if he showed even a hint of falsehood, it would only reveal his lies.

Luckily, my father, he didn't think like that.

Otherwise, my brother, he might be interrogated by him.

Just look, my father's face, it's filled with tiredness.

Who knows what happened, no one knows.

For sure, he had fought tooth and nail to appease a female.

Whatever it is, it's not a good thing to talk about.

"Is that true?"

"I'm sorry, father, for disturbing your sleep."

Finally, my father, he decided to forget what happened

Before he was about to leave, he didn't forget to say good night to his eldest son.

"Okay. Then father will come back. Hurry up and sleep, tomorrow is your last day in this village."

"..." still, my brother, he said nothing.

Even, when he tried to react.

He couldn't maintain his composure, showing a hint of sadness on his face.

Plus, because of the incident that just happened.

It was impossible for him to sleep, feeling so nervous.

The face of that girl, it endlessly kept appearing in his mind.

'How unlucky I am, go to sleep you bastard!!!' like it or not, my brother, he had to force himself to sleep.

Otherwise, he was afraid he wouldn't be able to wake up early.

...

*step-* *step-* *step-*

"Is it done?" asked a man, whose entire body was now covered in a set of iron clothes.

Currently, his expression, it showed a trace of hesitation.

"Not bad. He deserves to be one of our family." answered a girl, that girl, she was none other than the girl my brother met before.

"Hmm... I see, it seems that master was not wrong in choosing his adopted son." praised the man, slightly showing his admiration.

"Of course, there's no way father would choose the wrong successor." In fact, that girl, she even had to admit it.

Even though she didn't like her father, it didn't mean she hated him.

Precisely, because he was the person who gave birth to her.

She should feel grateful, without having to show her displeasure.

"What are you all doing, hurry back."

Suddenly, a man's voice was heard right behind them.

Finally, their gazes, it began to turn towards the man.

"Marcus..." the armored man growled, showing a hint of displeasure.

"What? Are you deaf? We have to prepare, tomorrow is the day we've been waiting for."

Before the man was about to leave, he glanced at the girl slightly.

"Princess, the Duke told you not to get close to your future brother. Apart from that, he also said that you must go home immediately after this."

"What-" unfortunately, before the girl was about to say a word.

That man, he suddenly disappeared from his place.

"Ck, annoying as usual." commented the man in armor, slightly berating the person they had previously met.

In his perspective, he didn't like the man's character at all.

It felt, like, that guy, he wasn't a good person.

As a soldier of the Skyfall family, he had heard rumors of that person.

It's said that, that person, he did something heinous.

Like, bullying juniors who have just joined their squad.

Or, committing rape against an innocent person.

"Still, if that's what the Duke says, we should go back." even so, there was nothing he could do.

If the Duke had given his decision, he could not remain in this place.
