I Became the Younger Brother of the Female Protagonist in the Novel - I Became the Younger Brother of the Female Protagonist in the Novel chapter 118

As she began to raise her accusations, the students who had entered the cafeteria gathered around as if asking what was going on.

and… … Sofia sighed as if she was dumbfounded by the female student’s criticism.

“I don’t know why you’re doing this nonsense play. I just dodged the food she was about to pour on my head. and… … Did you say Miss Mary? I saw her for the first time today, what the hell are you talking about?”

“Hey, don’t lie! Obviously, you knocked her over!”

Sofia looked disgusted at Nella’s attitude of pushing her against her without any special evidence.

And just as Sophia was about to say something.

“What kind of fuss is this?”

Rubelis with a cold expression approached Sofia.

“Lu, Mr. Rubelis.”

“I asked what the fuss was about.”

He raised his eyebrows diagonally.

Nella was slightly taken aback by that sight, but then she stretched out her finger towards Sophia.

“So, Sofia-sama tripped my friend!”

As if asking what that meant, Rubelis turned his head and looked at the girl who had fallen to the floor.

“… … Why is she, a noblewoman, serving food?”

“Meiri’s family only rules a small village in the countryside. So I tried to bring my own food… … .”

“Then this isn’t her place to eat?”

As Rubelis said.

Two corners were created to separate the dining areas of nobles and commoners.

Among them, the corner consisting of inexpensive and cost-effective food was about 10m away from Sofia’s seat.

Nella, who was stabbed to the point, rolled her eyes with a puzzled expression.

“Now, I was trying to talk to someone I knew for a while… … .”

“Did you carry food while having a conversation? To think there was an aristocrat who didn’t even know that level of common sense… … .”

Meiri’s face flushed red after falling to the floor at Rubelis’ scolding.

The more eyes around her, the more Nella became desperate.

“I, not only this time, but also usually bullying Meiri… … !”

“The proof? Could it be that it is only your testimony as a friend?”

“Oh, no… … .”

“I have only heard that Sophia is being bullied by someone. Just a moment ago, someone dropped a potted plant from the 3rd floor of the dorm.”

Nella’s shoulders trembled slightly at Rubelis’ remark.

From noble mtl dot com

The students around them immediately turned their gazes from Sophia to Nella and Mary’s party. Two female students who became the target of attention like that.

Despite their shrunken shoulders, Rubelis’ eyes were still cold.

“If you want to do something to harm Sophia… … I will never be alone.”

Seeing Rubelis growl, Sophia let out a small sigh and grabbed his right arm.

“it’s okay. stop now.”

“but… … .”

“are you okay. let’s stop We can eat lunch somewhere else.”

Rubelis nodded, gave Nella and Mairi a glare, and immediately left the restaurant with Sophia.

The commotion ended in an instant.

The plan to turn Sophia into an evil woman ended in an instant, and Nella and Meiri, second-year students of the swordsmanship department, quickly left the cafeteria, blushing with shame and embarrassment.

‘damn… … . damn… … . damn… … ! In front of Rubelis-sama… … !’

Nella joins Rubelis’ fan club. She intended to embarrass Sophia by spilling food on Rubelis’ toilet break.

But the plan failed, and Nella quickly rearranged her plan. In front of Rubelis, let’s accuse Sophia of being a villainess.

In the end, when both plans failed, Nella burst into tears as she recalled the angry face of Rubelis.

* * *

Meanwhile, rumors about Sophia started to circulate within the academy again.

However, the reaction of the students was only minimal.

Most of the students thought, ‘Why did you come now?’, and a few other students expressed regret, saying, ‘Someone is trying to bully Miss Sophia again.’

However, no student tried to approach Sophia.

The sadness is only for a short time. Most of them let go of the rumors without paying much attention.

and… … After several plans carried out by Nella’s party ended in failure, several female students gathered in a small conference room.

The colors of their name tags were really diverse.

From 2nd grade to 4th grade.

And the theme of the meeting they held was… … .

“His Highness, the Third Prince of Lyard E Labadian, Viscount Rubelis L Roxpell, and Pelliel H Ward, how to punish Miss Sophia wagging her tail… … Let’s start the meeting.”

It was about how to bully Sophia.

Despite the absurd topic, the meeting proceeded in a serious atmosphere.

“They say that Nella’s party failed in their plan. And it is said that Viscount Rubelis personally wrapped Miss Sophia… … .”

“It looks like it’s clinging to Rubelis-sama.”

Someone clicked their tongue with a grim expression.

“At this point, trying to break a leg… … .”

“that’s right. You have to make that level of threat to figure out your subject!”

The 4th year students let out a small sigh at the remarks of the 2nd year students.

“Then, who will break Miss Sophia’s leg? Would you guys?”

“Oh, no, that… … .”

It was just a suggestion, hoping someone would do it. They didn’t have the courage to act like that themselves.

No, it’s not a matter of courage. Sophia H. A student named Speyone is a swordsman genius who has reached the level of an advanced expert!

Even her younger brother, Viscount Kayneth L Arden, was a battlefield hero who defeated Count Caltron H Jermus, the red wolf called the armed of 100 victors on the northern front.

“He, still a boy, won’t get involved in girls’ problems.”

“But even if you are a male student, if it is your younger brother, the story can be different.”

Everyone shut their mouths at the remarks of a third-year female student.

Keynes, who expelled his half-sister for the sake of his own sister. The situation after he returned to the academy should also be considered.

“You don’t mean to hand over Her Highness Lyard and the others to that foxy woman, right?”

“Of course!”

“But bullying too much… … Shouldn’t it be avoided if possible? If you do something wrong, you could be expelled like senior Serin… … . Also, I heard that the Speyone family is promoting the engagement between Miss Sophia and Her Highness Lyard… … .”

“What else… … .”

They twisted their brows at the sudden engagement rumor.

The time when Keynes departed for the northern front with Lyard. The Spey One family tried to contact the imperial family several times and brought up the story of Sophia’s engagement.

As for the imperial family, the best in the empire… … No, it was so attractive in that it could have a blood relationship with the world’s richest family, but it showed a cautious reaction, wondering if it was hiding something.

Of course, if Ryard had remained in the system, he would have readily accepted the engagement.

Sensing this intuition, the female students bit their nails with an urgent expression.

up

“now… … What should I do?”

There were no particularly clear measures. I just hope that somehow, by spreading bad words about Sofia, her engagement will be cancelled.

However, the more active they were, the more unexpected variables occurred.

“These rumors are all bullsh*t. You’re not going to believe this stupid story, are you?”

“Oh ho ho~ Miss Sophia is so kind-hearted. It seems that someone was jealous of Miss Sophia and spread these rumors… … . I guess I need to do some research.”

The women of high-ranking families who quickly turned Sofia’s bad words into nonsense. These are the female students who joined Keynes’ fan club.

In other words, it should be said that they were the connections Kayneth made before he went to the battlefield.

Keynes has been acquainted with various female students since her freshman year, and bought her good feelings by handing over bribes instead of bribes.

Is it because of that? An existence that Keynes cherishes. Sophia H Spay One came under their protection.

“excuse me… … . Seniors?”

Sophia made a puzzled expression as she looked at the upper class seniors surrounding her.

“Don’t worry too much. Rumors like this will soon subside. Rather, I’m hosting a tea party today… … .”

Sophia remembered her face.

He was the one who often talked to Kayneth in the social club just a few months ago.

‘Why is this person me… … .’

Sophia was only suspicious of her help, but gladly accepted the tea party’s invitation.

“I just prepared good tea leaves produced in the southern region. It will go well with refreshments, so please look forward to it.”

She waved her hand towards Sofia and left.

“What the hell is this… … .”

I wish I had someone to support me.

Sophia looked dazed for a moment, then immediately moved on to the next lecture.

Chapter 114

114. 13th Northern Border Fortress (1)

I corresponded with Sophia once a week. It’s only a matter of saying hello, but the fact that her younger brother is out on the battlefield seems to make her feel uncomfortable in many ways.

Well, if your family is out on the battlefield… … don’t even worry It’s not what I, the party, have to say.

And while I was in touch, I became curious about the academy’s situation for a while.

“Hmm… … . Are you really going to be okay?”

– What are you worried about so much when you have taken action?

“But it’s just in case you don’t know.”

I asked other seniors in case of emergency, but I still doubted whether it would be of great help.

My sister’s bad words spread throughout the academy.

If the main culprit was one person, they would have dealt with it somehow, but it seems that they are moving in an organized manner.

It would be difficult to punish one person.

In order to alleviate the rumors, I formed a network with female seniors from the first grade to the upper grades.

“… … I hope that all my efforts have not been in vain.”

The conversation time I’ve been investing so far. In addition, even the bribes handed over in the name of gifts.

Most of them are expensive products handled by Arden clothing stores, but for me, it is a huge investment worth tens of billions of won.

It must have been worth the investment in the sense of expanding my network. Even as a customer.

and… … .

“Anyway, my sister seems to be suffering from groundless rumors these days. It breaks my heart every time I see my sister in pain… … .”

… … With the remark, I got a feeling of sympathy from my seniors.

Some seniors said, ‘Don’t worry. When Miss Sophia is being bullied, I will definitely be there to help her.’

Just, if even one of the ten people present would help my sister… … .

“That alone would have been enough… … .”

– The war is not over yet. It’s not too late to think about that part after returning to the system.

“… … Well, that’s right. If none of the things I’ve done are working… … All your efforts in the past are meaningless. You might die because the money you invested is a waste.”

-Was it about 4,700 gold coins? I did use it quite a bit.

“It’s a difficult amount to end with the word ‘pretty’. I could buy a few potions with that money… … .”

– But compared to the funds you earn… … .

“Still, if you convert it to gold points, it will be 470,000 GP. It is by no means light.”

It is an enormous amount that can be considered as the annual sales of small and medium-sized businesses.

Aristocrats collected various taxes from the territory they managed and enjoyed luxury to their heart’s content, but the value of money earned by merchants was on a different level from that of nobles.

In the case of Endyron… … Seeing the profits I make at the auction house every time, it seems my sense of money has gotten a little weird.

Unlike before, he thought lightly of the value of one gold coin.

‘Well, there are times when I think of a gold coin or two as if it were a small amount.’

The profits earned from the Ardennes auction house were astonishing.

Of course, there was a limit to the revenue collected from the auction house.

First, it is the quantity of auction items to be registered. It was impossible to register hundreds or thousands of auction items at once, and there is no choice but to limit profits.

So for a while, I left a few days worth of auction items at the Ardennes Auction House, and then stopped by the Gold Rush Auction House to work.

‘Honestly, if it hadn’t been for that incident the other day… … I would have used people to register things at numerous auction houses in Korea.’

An Ardenne employee who registered auction items at auction houses in other regions and collected the winning bids. He was from the slums and had grace with me, and he showed his will by writing a contract with a curse of mana.

Yeah, so far there have been no major problems.

however… … .

“I never thought I would encounter thieves on the way to collect the winning bid… … .”

I posted five low-level experts and one intermediate expert knight just in case, but the thieves I encountered seemed to be famous in the western region as well.

Even the number approached dozens, so the errand boys and escort knights lost their lives.

While showing regret for their deaths, I took appropriate compensation from the bereaved families, and soon moved the members of Darkness to rob all the thieves around me, but unfortunately, I could not find the thieves who seemed to be the main culprits.

It had evaporated along with the subspace pouch containing thousands of gold coins.

“It wouldn’t be bad to try to escort the members of Darkness, but now that the battle with the Church has begun to intensify… … .”

Literally, it was difficult to take out even one power.

“Whoa, when the power is replenished, I’ll take two or three people out and try to move.”

-Stop muttering, go to bed.

The Imperial Army stationed on the Harperos Plain. About 50,000 of them marched with me for about 8 hours.

And Ryard sent 10,000 troops to the forest of Ren, led by Lebark.

In the plain, there are currently 40,000 troops repairing wooden fences that had collapsed in the war. They were hastily building a defensive line.

fluff.

Temporary camp of the Imperial army where 50,000 troops are stationed.

I lay down on a bed in the small tent that was the commander’s room.
