The Hero’s Brother Is Bound To Be Depressed - Chapter 449
450 – The jewel Eunice found
The next day, Eunice, who had left for Detroit, returned. However, he was not alone, but a woman who looked about his age and a small child who looked like his younger brother were together. Eunice, who had placed two people in the waiting room for guests at Modest, left the room and explained to me.
“It’s a hidden gem I found at Arcadia Academy.”
“jewel?”
There didn’t seem to be anything special.
“There was one among the golems announced last summer that caught my eye. So I looked into it, and it turned out to be pretty great. “I brought you here because I thought it would be good for you to meet him in person.”
It’s a golem… The Imperial Palace Guardian Golem was already a finished version with improvements completed. It was judged that the golem itself had reached its limit and could no longer develop. Since Eunice has worked so hard, it is not difficult to meet and talk.
“okay. “If Eunice says that, I can only hope so.”
Perhaps because she was worried about my reaction, Eunice smiled brightly and nodded.
“You definitely won’t be disappointed.”

Eunice brought the two men to Modest’s basement. Their faces seemed similar, and as expected, they were sisters. Their names are Gina and Wiz. However, while being introduced to Eunice, I felt that my younger brother named Wiz was moving very distractedly.
This may be true for children, but it felt a little different from the typical children who cannot stand boredom and become distracted. Boo-! It sometimes made animal sounds and bit Genie’s hand that it was holding. As my eyes turned to Wiz, her older sister, Ginny, explained to me.
“My younger brother Wiz… “I’m a little bit autistic.”
Looking at his behavior, it doesn’t seem like a bit, but I didn’t feel the need to point it out. She crossed her arms in silence so that she could continue her explanation. Ginny gave no explanation as to whether she was nervous or whether she was distracted by her brother who kept trying to climb on the table.
“Ross, how about taking out the golem?”
I tilted my head at what Eunice said while watching the situation.
“suddenly?”
“Yes, then I think the conversation will be resolved easily.”
Seeing Eunice smiling with a somewhat confident look on her face, I shrugged my shoulders and took out the Imperial Guardian Golem from the space storage. Then, he infused his magic into power and activated the golem.
“wow-!”
Wiz’s attention was completely focused on the golem. The goal seemed to have changed from climbing up the table to approaching the golem. I passed Wiz, who got off the chair and ran towards the golem, and caught him with difficulty, but he even screamed and tried to get closer to the golem.
“It’s under control, so don’t worry, you can just leave it alone.”
Genie felt relieved at my words and let go of Wiz, who was holding on to her. Wiz, who was blaming her older sister by flinging her feet in the air, approached the golem without any fear as soon as her feet touched the ground. She is a girl who likes golems, so to a child who doesn’t understand what a golem is, it would seem like a big toy.
Wiz, who was gradually losing his ability to speak humanly and making animal-like noises, was noisy, so he moved the golem a little further away and sat down again. Genie, who was looking worriedly at Wiz who was fiddling with the golem, sighed and sat down again.
“sorry. “My younger brother likes golems so much.”
“it’s okay. Is there anything else you can show me?”
In response to my question, Ginny exchanged glances with Eunice and took out a notebook from her pocket.
“This is a notebook containing the blueprint for the golem I presented at Arcadia Academy.”
When I received the note, I checked its contents. Having realized the essence of magic through Quantum Jump, I was able to imagine with my own eyes how a golem could actually work just by looking at the blueprint.
Genie’s idea itself could be evaluated as excellent. He planned to turn the golem into a ‘robot’ that would help people’s lives, excluding anything related to combat.
In particular, unlike today’s golems, specially designed advanced joints were able to reproduce movements that were impossible due to the golem’s structure. I felt fresh because it was a direction I had never thought of before.
“… “It’s not bad.”
But what we need right now are not the kinds of things that are helpful in life. This is an important moment to help in the fight. As I turned the pages with regret, I stopped at one page.
“This is… .”
Unlike the blueprint I had seen, it was a child’s crude drawing. A painting that clearly reveals jagged lines and disorganized thoughts. However, the pure principles of magic contained therein were shining brightly as if they were emitting light.
“This is a work created by Wiz. Wiz drew this on the spot while looking at the golem’s core brought from the academy. At first, I thought it was just a simple doodle, but I was really surprised when I heard Wiz’s explanation. “It is a nuclear modification device that uses the power generated when magical energy is released.”
There was strong pride in Ginny’s voice for her younger brother. Apparently, it was Wiz, not Genie, who thought Eunice was a gem.
thud-!
When I suddenly turned my head at the noise I heard, I saw one of the arms of the Imperial Palace Guardian Golem rolling around on the floor.
“… ?”
“omg!”
Ginny was surprised because she thought her brother was causing trouble again, but I was surprised in a different way. Did you disassemble the golem with your bare hands without any tools? ? It was equipped with additional armor suitable for combat, so there would not even have been a gap for fingernails to fit in, but it was an amazing ability.
“S-sorry!”
After stopping Genie, who got up to take care of the problem, I approached Wiz, who was disassembling the golem. He’s an amazing kid. He had a knack for clearly showing how happy he was just by looking at his back.
I looked at the inside of the golem with my face down where my arm fell, and spoke to Wiz, who was drooling.
“Are you having fun?”
Wiz quickly turned his head to me, nodded, and went back to being preoccupied with looking at the inside of the golem. As I was scratching his head, Wiz, who had been touching something with his hand inside, turned his head to me.
“I miss you!”
It appears that his arms were short and could not reach the intended area. Are you interested in the core of the golem I improved? I took down the wiz that was attached to the golem, disassembled the armor as I wanted, and pulled out the golem’s core.
“how is it?”
“wow-!”
I also smiled at the child’s innocent reaction. After handing over the golem’s core, Wiz moved her short legs eagerly and showed off the golem’s core to Genie.
When Genie smiled and patted her head as if praising her, Wiz, who seemed to be satisfied with that, put the golem’s core on the table, opened her sister’s notebook, took a pen, and started drawing scribbles.
As I quietly approached the table and looked at the graffiti, I couldn’t help but be amazed. It is a fairly common setting in movies and dramas that a child with autism has genius abilities in a specific field. However, it wasn’t a setting that appeared in my novel, and it wasn’t something I tried to force and then discarded. This was not a set-up, but pure, innate talent.
Having reached the truth of magic, I saw Wiz’s doodles and realized her true talent. Wiz didn’t just like golems. Although she only had golems nearby due to her older sister’s influence in developing her golem, her real talent lay on the other side.
I waited for Wiz to finish doodling, then took out a suitable artifact from the space storage. It was a small artifact that could measure the numerical value of a target from a distance, and as expected, he was very interested when he waved it so that Wiz could see it.
Wiz took what was in my hand almost as if he had taken it away, and as if it were a natural thing, he disassembled the artifact and began to look inside. I said to Ginny, who was wiping the drool running down her chin.
“Wiz is a genius at modifying artifacts.”
“yes? It’s not a golem… ?”
“That’s because there are only golems nearby. Looking at ways to improve artifacts like the golem’s core, Wiz’s abilities are focused on modification.”
Genie listened to me seriously and clapped her hands as if she remembered something.
“Actually, I wouldn’t have been able to make the joints I put into the golem without Wiz’s help. Was Wiz really talented in that field? ?”
It was fortunate for me that Wiz’s abilities were focused on modifying artifacts. There will definitely be more places to use it than golems.

I had already reached the realm of transcendence and was in a state where I could no longer grow through training. It is safe to say that it is stagnation. It was a natural phenomenon that inevitably came to the transcendental, but I knew several ways to quickly overcome it.
The quickest way to overcome stagnation and become stronger in the shortest possible time was to modify the body using artifacts. There was a downside to losing one’s lifespan and body, but for me, where immediate power was important enough to join hands with the Demon King, there was no other option like this.
In fact, it was a possible choice thanks to the appearance of Wiz. If my knowledge of the truth of magic and Wiz’s abilities are combined, we will definitely be able to achieve great results.
“Eunice, good job.”
Eunice smiled brightly at my compliment, as if she was happy that she was helpful.
