Miss-

“…Is this my brother?”

“Yes. Ruler! This is your brother, Luke. How is it? Is not it cute?”

“Hmm… Disgusting!”

My love-

Thinking back, I wondered if Luke had actually been listening to me since then. It really couldn’t have been, but my brother was a genius enough to even think of such nonsense.

“Oops. I can’t use it when I become an older sister and say things like that to my younger sister, Letty.”

Her mother’s face, which gave me a stern expression with a slight frown between her beautiful brows, had a playfulness so vivid that it is strange that she did not notice it now.

Of course, when I was young, I wasn’t sharp enough to notice such trivial details.

“But…”

“Then I don’t know if my younger brother hates me later?”

Even my whining, which used to bring her mother down so easily, had no effect in the presence of her brother.

I was just happy to hear that I would have a younger brother. When the situation changed, I felt sad.

“I’m sorry…”

“Your apology goes to your sister, Letty.”

While pouting my lips, I nodded at her mother’s words. Because I was a good kid who listened well.

“I’m sorry, sister…”

Actually, while apologizing, I didn’t expect her sister to react to me at all.

Kyaaaaa-

By the way, my younger brother smiled brightly after hearing my words.

“…So cute!”

“Isn’t that right?”

That was my first meeting with my brother, Luke.

My brother was a genius.

Parents and maids couldn’t help but admire the little brother who quickly took off his toes, started talking on his own someday, and even learned to read and write on his own.

…He’s a younger brother than me. Although the handwriting itself was crooked, probably because my hand didn’t have enough strength, I felt like I could write better than I did, so I was very jealous.

Whether I was jealous of my younger brother or not, the retainers were enthusiastic about the future prospects that the next owner of the family showed from a young age.

I was internally envious of the difference in temperature from the reaction he showed toward me, who was nothing but normal, and hated my younger brother a little bit.

Still, I couldn’t hate my brother for very long.

Because it was too cute to hate.

I didn’t like studying so much, so the first rival I had was my younger brother, although it may sound funny.

My brother was overly mature.

Sometimes, when I hang out with my younger brother, I often feel as if an adult is playing with me instead of me playing with my younger brother.

Adults were just delighted with the fact that my younger brother was just dignified for his age, but I was rather worried about my younger brother.

I thought maybe I was having a hard time pretending to be dignified.

…Contrary to my worries, I think it was more comfortable for my younger brother to show a dignified appearance. Well, there were times when I thought that way.

There was a time when my unusually grown-up little brother showed a strangely appropriate look for his age.

“Mother, play one more song!”

That was when my mother played the violin for us.

Although he was my younger brother who managed his emotions well enough to be incomparable to me at the time, let alone when he was the same age. When she listened to the sometimes calm, sometimes passionate melodies of her mother’s violin, she would show a rare excitement.

Perhaps that is why I was taught the violin by her mother.

I want to draw out that kind of look of my sister with my own hands.

Of course, there was a trivial reason that I could confirm that my younger brother was really my ‘younger brother’.

Tragedy always strikes at the most unexpected moment.

There was no portent.

One spring afternoon five years after Luke was born.

On that day, the Isvant family suffered a wound that will not be erased no matter how much time passes.

“Huh? Sir Fritz, what are you doing here? And the two people next to you…?”

In the courtyard of the inner castle, there is a flower bed that the mother tends as a hobby.

Due to the nature of an aristocratic woman who tends to value her dignity and appearance, her hobbies were not very favored, but since my mother was the one who took up all kinds of hobbies, it was not too surprising.

The flower bed my mother tended was my mother, me, and Luke. It was a place with many memories for the three of us.

Occasionally my father would join us as well, but since he was basically a man who was obsessed with the Mage Tower and family affairs, such cases were quite rare.

The day Julius Fritz, the leader of the family knights, came to visit with two suspicious men and women wearing robes.

That day was the day I received violin lessons from my mother.

“Hmm? This is quite unexpected.”

At the unfamiliar male voice that suddenly resonated in the courtyard, Luke looked up and took his eyes off the book he was reading.

Actually, the reason I took out Luke, who was enjoying reading in his room, and sat next to him was to show off my considerably improved violin skills.

And that was my mistake.

“What part surprises you, Pisces?”

“Aquarius, this child you said was perfect for Omega’s leash. It is the vessel of a natural adult.”

“…Huh, that’s definitely unexpected.”

“Sir Fritz. Who are the two people next to Kyung-ui, and why did they come here? Do you think a proper explanation is needed?”

Seeing Captain Julius ignoring his own question and conversing with the man in the robe, his mother frowned and placed her hand on her waist, demanding an explanation.

What happened next became a terrible memory that I will never forget for the rest of my life.

“Seriously, you’re a very loud, high-pitched b*tch.”

The whole world was dyed red.

The red color invaded the flower bed in full bloom of white and yellow and slowly ate away its beauty. It took an instant for the beauty of the flowers in the flower bed that my mother had tended to fade.

“Oh, Mother!”

Rook, who hurriedly stood up, was about to approach her mother when the man in the robe gently waved her hand. Then Luke’s eyes go loose, and he falls to the floor.

“It would be good to revise the plan a little. As long as it has been confirmed that it is a vessel for adults, using it as a simple leash is a waste.”

“You’re going to be pretty busy for a while… Ah!”

As I witnessed my mother’s death right in front of my eyes, I froze.

A fear that if I moved or made a sound, I might die too engulfed my body.

“What is it, Aquarius?”

“I came up with a very interesting idea. As for naming it… It’s about raising a saintess.”

“…That child?”

The moment the woman wearing the robe opened her mouth for the first time, I felt a strange sense of uneasiness.

“No, no. It can’t be!”

And the words of Sir Julius, which followed, sealed my fate.

“The one who becomes a saint is Burgo and you. Because my lady promised to willingly give up her body for the great succession. Isn’t that right, Lady Leticia?”

“Wait a minute! Are you crazy Why do I have to enter the body of a bastard like that!”

I lost 15 years just like that.

“Hey, is it still far? Mr. Ha, Gemini, you asshole… I don’t think I’ll be able to stand it for long, seeing you losing your senses and getting beaten up…”

“No, it’s coming soon, just wait and see!”

Burgo suddenly freezes like a stone statue as he puts his hand to her mouth to bite her fingernails out of anxiety.

‘What, what?!’

A situation where you try to open your mouth to say something, but your body won’t listen to you. It was an infinitely awkward situation for her, who was always the one taking control of her body.

‘Suddenly, what is this…’

When Burgo’s eyes started to tremble violently, her familiar yet unwelcome voice came into her head.

[It’s been a really boring 15 years.]

‘…You! What tricks did this powerless b*tch do?!’

[I don’t know what kind of rudeness you’re talking about, saying you don’t have any power.]

Suddenly Burgo. No, Leticia’s body started to move.

An object that fell not too far from her feet. In her panic, Esha Marie, who rampaged wildly at her, dropped her dagger toward the house.

‘Wait, wait! What are you going to do with it… No way?’

[I’m sure that’s right?]

Upon realizing that Virgo, who couldn’t hide her nervousness, came to her belatedly, she gritted her teeth and tried her best to regain control of her body.

[It’s no use trying so hard. You may not know, but for me, it’s the moment I’ve been waiting for for over 10 years.]

Leticia’s body, which did not respond to her own will no matter how hard she tried, was overflowing enough to give her virgo a sense of despair.

[I never even imagined that it would be a moment like this.]

Leicia bent down to pick up her dagger sheath, carefully drew her dagger, then moved her steps toward Libra with a wry smile.

‘Crazy. It’s really crazy!’

The moment Burgo lost control of his body, he had no choice but to admit that all his plans had gone awry.

If it had happened to her, she would have been able to rectify it somehow, but it wasn’t because of her carelessness.

The reason why no one has been able to escape her control for hundreds of years is that it cannot be because the people who lost her body to her were all weak-minded.

Burgo was always consolidating her mastery over the body she occupied, and she was no exception, even with the fish she had caught.

So, this could not be explained without divine intervention.

“Look, since you are quiet, it will be over soon. If you do this…!”

While Libra, who was completely ignorant of what had happened with Leticia’s body, focused on retrieving her holy relic, Leticia was right behind him.

‘Hey, hey! Stop for a second! If you stab it, you die too! In that case, let’s make a deal with me, huh? I promise to give this body back to you! For now, stop that crazy thing and start talking to me-‘

[Do you think our great apostle is in a bit of a hurry? To offer all the deals to an insignificant me.]

With Leticia’s voice full of laughter that didn’t suit her situation, Virgo realized that no matter what she said, it would be of no use.

[But what to do with this? I’m not going to believe even the obvious facts that everyone knows, such as ‘the sky is blue’, if it comes out of your mouth.]

To be honest, Leticia wasn’t all that relaxed.

At the thought of taking someone’s life into her own hands, her hand that was holding her dagger was trembling.

However, Leticia had no intention of succumbing to such pressure. If she had been so weak that she couldn’t overcome that much, she would have raised the white flag to Burgo more than ten years ago.

“Ha, it’s finally done.”

Unable to predict the future that would come upon her, Libra, who had been concentrating on retrieving the sacred object, finally succeeded in unlocking the chest she had been wrestling with for a long time.

Kiik-

Libra, who opened her chest without hesitation, carefully took out her cup from inside and let out an exclamation.

“This is the second holy object, the Holy Grail of Selene…”

The glass with its brilliant blue color was certainly beautiful enough to be acknowledged by anyone, but it wasn’t because of its appearance that Libra admired it.

“Haha…! With this, we are one step closer to the completion of the Great Plan.”

It was the moment when Libra, who smiled happily at the thought that their god, Nox, had only a short time left to regain his strength, was about to propose her retreat by calling out to Burgo.

“Burgo! The collection of the sacred objects has been completed, so hurry and get out of here…?”

Dalgrak-

At the same time as the sound of the second sacred object falling back into the chest resounded, several red dots were created on it.

‘…Wow, f*ck. It’s really ruined.’

As she stopped talking, Libra felt the sensation of something flowing down her mouth and wiped her mouth with her hand. I stop at the hot sensation.

Moments later, Libra let out her screams in excruciating pain.

“Kwaaaaah-!”

The sensation of something being pulled out before the pain subsides. At this point, she couldn’t help but notice.

Libra collapsed on her knees, clutching her breasts. Taking a deep breath, he turned her head and looked behind her.

“Ah, ha, ha ha… Ugh! Burgo, this crazy b*tch, f*ck… He had an accident… Ha…”

The languid expression on Libra’s face clearly revealed the despondency he was feeling right now. Due to his pain, Libra was not in her right mind right now, to the point of bursting into laughter even while struggling to breathe.

I really don’t have much time left. A house in their own niche, no. To think there would be an idiot who couldn’t even guard his own body properly.

“Should I say congratulations, Miss Isvant…? As soon as you get back- cool! It’s very unfortunate that what you did upon getting it back was to stab me…”

As she spoke, Libra’s voice was gradually getting smaller. He was immortal, but not immortal.

“Still, since I have at least one comrade on the road to the underworld, it won’t be so lonely… haha…”

It was as he said.

The red marks that spread slowly on Leticia’s white robe indicated that she too would soon face the same fate as Libra.

Since her wounds were caused by the power of her Nox, her holy power of her Lux was of little help to her in the current situation. It was because Nox’s holy power dwelling in her wounds rebelled against Lux’s.

But Leticia knew from the beginning that she would end up like this. There was at least one corner that she believed in.

Even if it wasn’t for that, Leticia would have risked her own life for her brother.

“…We’ll have to wait and see if things turn out the way you think.”

“What… Ah, haha. Yes, that’s right. That’s right… Coke…”

At the same time that the new model of Libra, which vomited blood once, collapsed, Leticia also began to stagger her body.

“…Me!”

Before she collapsed completely, she heard someone’s voice ringing in her ear and a warm hand supporting her back.

“Long time no see… Luke.”

It was the first reunion in 15 years.
