The Hero’s Brother Is Bound To Be Depressed - Chapter 410
411 – Judgment
Everyone was shocked when Ellie said that space expansion magic was destroying the demon world. Except for Raelan, who points out Ellie’s words in a cold voice.
“That question raises questions. If space expansion magic was indeed a plan prepared by the church a long time ago, it would mean that Alex Floyd, the first principal of Transcendence Academy, who created space expansion magic, was connected to the church. But you probably don’t know that the church did not exist in his later years.”
Ellie nodded and drew three circles on the blackboard. She then wrote the numbers 1, 2, and 3 inside each circle.
“that’s right. Alex Floyd created space expansion magic. However, the space magic we use now maintains the basic framework that was created through numerous improvements from the space expansion magic created by Alex Floyd, but the structure of the magic is different.”
Ellie said, pointing with chalk at the circle with the number 1 written on it.
“Initially, space expansion magic was used in basements where there was enough free space around. Because space is absolute, even if it is distorted, collapsed, or cut, it is bound to exist there in the end. This number 1 is expanded by taking advantage of the available space, so it does not violate the laws of nature.”
Ellie continued her explanation by drawing an arrow to the right next to circle 1 and pointing to circle 2.
“However, the second improved space expansion magic does not require free space to exist. Instead of being in the basement, it can now be freely used in the living room or store. However, because the space itself was simply expanded with the power of the magic stone, efficiency and stability were greatly reduced. However, it did not break the laws of nature and did not affect the demon world.”
Ellie traced the chalk and stopped at the circle with the number 3 written on it.
“I think everyone knows why the space expansion magic we use today has become widespread on the continent over the past few decades.”
Eunice muttered quietly in response to Ellie’s question.
“The church… “Because we revealed the improved space expansion magic to everyone without any conditions.”
“True, but denominations and churches are obvious enemies. But how was the church able to spread space expansion magic that causes chaos in the demon world? I used Modest’s intelligence to investigate what happened. And I found out. “The church intentionally made believers with information about space expansion magic fall into the hands of the church.”
Conrad nodded as if he understood Ellie’s explanation.
“The church must have been very coveted. Because you can safely use space expansion magic without any restrictions. Even if they knew that the reaction would cause chaos in the demon world, the church aimed to show that a church that hates the devil would not care at all.”
“That’s accurate. The church had a huge impact on people’s lives by making space expansion magic available to everyone. Thanks to this, the church’s influence across the continent was able to grow enormously, and the denominations were able to easily spread the poison they had created across the entire continent using the power of the church. Cafe, academy, home… “Nowadays, space expansion magic can be found everywhere.”
After Ellie finished speaking, everyone fell into silence. Even though it is a cult’s poison, space expansion magic has already deeply permeated everyone’s lives for decades. Eunice, who was pondering, opened her mouth.
“Is there a way to reverse the chaos?”
“now… Actually, I don’t know. I need more research. “I think we need to solve the fundamental problem right now.”
“It would be impossible to ban space expansion magic. “It has already become an essential magic that is very useful in people’s lives.”
“… That’s why the devil hates humans. “Because humans are destroying the world they live in just for convenience.”
At Ellie’s words, Eunice closed her mouth and lowered her gaze. While everyone was thinking about how to solve this problem, Raelan, who had been quietly observing the situation, glanced at Ross and clapped his hands.
“I knew the church’s plan, and I also realized what chaos was. The Demon King can’t move right away anyway. “If that’s the case, then it’s a problem you don’t need to worry about.”
Ellie frowned at Raelan’s words.
“but-“
“Our goal now is to obtain the Holy Grail and revive Luna. Re-entering the labyrinth is a matter of life. “I guess you guys have time to focus on other things.”
No one could respond to Raelan’s cold voice. Raelan looked at the faces of her comrades one by one before fixing her gaze on Ros wearing her mask.
“What do you think, master? Should we care about chaos now?”
“… .”
Ross rested his chin on his hand. Ross was silent for a moment, but then spoke in a voice that seemed like it was no big deal.
“Roel will solve the chaos.”
Raelan looked interested.
“… Wow, this is an interpretation from another perspective. “Is there a reason you said that?”
“Because that is the flow of the story. “We just need to focus on the Holy Grail.”
Ellie, who was pursed her lips with a dumbfounded look on Ross’s words, asked.
“What do you mean flow? Don’t just jump into such vague words, but explain it clearly. “Chaos is a real problem that could destroy the world.”
Ross’ eyes turned to Ellie. When Ellie met her eyes, the blue eyes behind her mask felt like a different person.
“… When the whole story is over, the child born between Roel and the Demon King can solve the chaos. That’s why I don’t care.”
“W-what do you mean… ?”
Just as Ellie was confused, the other colleagues also did not understand Ross’ words. He was the child of Roel and the Demon King. Even when recalling the memories that Ross had conveyed, there was no such information.
However, Raelan twitched one corner of his mouth as if he completely understood what Ross said.
“Is this not just a prediction, but a reading of the flow of probability? The problem that prevents Roel from achieving a happy ending is that it can be solved through natural probability. “That is the probability that the Demon Lord, who has become a woman in this world, can create something with Roel.”
Raelan, who was laughing happily, touched his forehead and said.
“Kkeukkeuk, my lord has grown tremendously in just a few days.”
“… .”
“Well, I think I know the reason for that growth.”
When Ross didn’t answer, Raelan shrugged and turned his gaze to Konrad.
“I guess you have something to explain to us.”
Conrad frowned and opened his mouth with a sigh.
“… Phew, yes. At Nelson’s request, I became the temporary principal of Transcendence for a year. I figured that since Ellie’s relationship with Lily was exposed, the church would definitely target academy students who entered the labyrinth. So, under the authority of the principal, Transcendence’s plan to participate in the Labyrinth was canceled.”
At those words, Eunice, Ellie, and Lamine looked at each other with surprised faces. Raelan must have already known, so he told everyone without any change in his expression.
“I guess that was the plan from the beginning. In any case, Fraks will remain at the academy as before and continue his role of protecting students in preparation for any unexpected situation.”
Raelan, who deliberately gave Ross a sideways glance, continued speaking again.
“The Adjuster no longer enters the Labyrinth with us. Even if Eunice and Lamine join, it will be difficult to replace the coordinator’s vacancy. “So I’m going to have my younger brother join the rescue team.”
Ellie blinked and said with a puzzled look on her face.
“If it’s your younger brother… No way, Professor Lycan… ?”
“He has good skills and is smart, so he will be a good horse to control.”
Raelan turned his head and looked directly at Ross.
“Are you going to refuse to join the Lycans?”
When Ross shook his head slightly without saying a word, Raelan nodded and said.
“Then pass on the memories to Lycan. “He’s such a fool, he’s sure to be happy to share the burden on his student’s shoulders.”
Raelan sneered and spoke to everyone.
“Because Lycan entered the labyrinth late, he cannot join right now. Remember that Lycans will join from the 4th floor, and right now we must safely attack the 3rd floor with only the people here. Everyone probably knows in advance what the structure of the third floor is based on the memories that Ross relayed… . “Yes, Lamine and Eunice, who were not present, will receive their memories from Ross after the conversation.”
Lamine and Eunice slowly lowered their raised hands. Raelan sighed, his face contorted like a professor looking at an inferior student, and continued his words.
“It is expected that individuals will feel comfortable meeting the conditions to escape from the third floor. “But for safety’s sake, we will be pairing up in advance.”

Raelan stood up, went to the portable blackboard, erased what had been written, and wrote down the matching names in chalk.
[Lamine – Eunice]
[Ross – Ellie]
[Raelan]
Lamine, who was looking at the writing on the blackboard, opened his mouth.
“Are you okay alone? Rather, it may be more efficient for Raelan to work with Eunice and for me to do it alone.”
“I know that running away is your specialty. “It would be good for me to stick around for Eunice’s growth.”
Eunice looked horrified at Raelan’s words and asked Ross for help. However, before Ross could help, Raelan’s rebuttal came first.
“But that’s stupid and not even ahead of time. The third floor is a solo exhibition that requires collaboration. It would be more efficient for two inferior people to hold hands and lean on each other, rather than for me, who is superior. And among these, I am the strongest as an individual. “For everyone’s safety, I decided it was best for me to be alone.”
Raelan said, glaring at Lamine with a disdainful gaze.
“Know your topic before you give your opinion, lowlife.”
Ellie glanced at Eunice and asked, ‘Aren’t you unlucky?’, and Eunice nodded vigorously.
