Chapter 9 - 57

How to Protect Female Protagonist's Brother Chapter 57

* * *

The second day of the reconciliation meeting.

My day was like yesterday. However, as it is a daily routine to be alone in Agriche, it didn't feel boring to spend time quietly in a room like this.

But today, I went to the terrace for a while and had a refreshment time to get some air.

It was winter, but compared to Agriche, where the blizzard hit, it was almost as warm as early spring.

"Well, young lady. Will you be in your room again today? There are many people who are so sweet to see the girl's face."

Then one of the employees who was waiting next to me looked at me and asked.

At the end of that, the other users also looked at my face one by one. They were cleaning the room while I was on the terrace.

I felt their gaze and slowly lifted the teacup.

"Well, it doesn't seem like that's the case. Even last year, when I was outside, no one came to me."

"that's… … ."

In my words, the end of the speech was blurred as if he did not know what to say.

I knew what she wanted to say, even if she didn't listen.

The reason other people couldn't come to me wasn't because they didn't care about me, but because I was fed up with my beauty.

I tilted the teacup leisurely, leaving the lingering workers behind.

"Ugh!"

Then suddenly, from underneath, I could hear people breathing in quickly.

I sneaked my head down.

Then, a group of people who were just passing by under the terrace I was out of came into my eyes.

They paused, looked up at me, and made stupid expressions. It seemed like he found me by accident while passing down.

Looking down, there was also Liuzac of the enemy Gasthor family in it.

Red hair, a little shorter than last year, fluttered finely in the air in the wind. The eyes, with a slightly fiercely raised tail, were greedyly ripe grape-colored.

He said he had just arrived in Yggdrasil this morning, and now he seemed to be moving back to the next building after luncheon.

Ryuzak looked at me again and distorted his face grimly.

I mean, tell me what I did to you. It's like a reckless male protagonist.

"What, what are you? Are you looking at my sister like that?"

That's when Jeremy appeared.

From yesterday, it seemed that I couldn't bear it, but it seemed that he had finally found a place for a fertilization.

Liu Jacques, staring at me, heard that and lowered his head.

"… … Are you talking to me? What are you like?"

A cool gaze flew to Jeremy and stuck.

"Are you affiliated with Agriche? The horsebird is pretty cheeky."

No, Jeremy was really fighting openly.

Of course, I don't think that one of the male protagonists, Liuzac, will fall into this blatant provocation... … .

"huh. Before I start fucking with my words, I do well to crack down on your eyes."

"My dear, you have to cut out that tongue, will you shut her mouth?"

… … is not it? Are you trying to fight now? It's that kind of atmosphere.

"Jeremy. Stop and come up here."

I felt the need to crack down on Jeremy before the annoyance happened.

As I opened my mouth, the people underneath looked up at me with even more stupid expressions.

Jeremy and Liuzac's gaze also turned to me.

Luckily, Jeremy knocked her tongue out, unfortunately, and she turned right away. Liuzac looked at Jeremy with an absurd look.

"My younger brother did excuse me for caring for me."

At my words, Liuzac's frowned eyes stared at me quietly for a moment.

Soon he softened his face and said to me.

"You will be tired because the child who takes such a lot of hands is a younger brother."

It was the first time to mix words in this way, but it was surprisingly polite.

"I'm only ferocious to those who rude me first, but I'm originally a cute child."

Of course, the face I faced again was crumpled by my continued words.

Still, as soon as he saw me, he admitted that it was rude to frown first, and Liuzac did not refute what I said.

Rather, unexpectedly, he expressed a bit of awkwardness to my point.

I laughed when I saw such a Liuzac.

His face hardened when he saw my smile. Not to mention the reaction of the people around.

As I watched it, I got up from my seat quietly.

"I'll excuse me too. As this is a place for unity and harmony, I wish you a meaningful time for the rest of the year."

Liu Jacques again shut his mouth and looked at me as he left his greetings ritually given and received at Uygdrasil.

He turned and felt his gaze behind his back. But I went into the room without looking back.

* * *

Before dinner that evening, the head of Bertium in Huang and the people from Fedelian in Qing arrived at the castle.

Noel Bertium was stuck in a room without greeting and could not see his face.

In Fedelian, head Lichelle and his daughter, Sylvia, who became adults this year were present.

This meant that all the major characters of the novel were gathered in one place except Orca, the beast of the white.

I wasn't surprised because I already heard the news that Sylvia was attending this meeting.

Is she finally the appearance of a female protagonist?

I went with Rand to see the Fedelian chief Lischel.

When I just got to the first floor, I noticed someone disappearing down the stairs on the other side. Like an afterimage, the long hair left in my view was obviously a silver color resembling that of someone I know.

"You're here, Richell Fedeliyan."

Land's voice ringing in her ears, I lowered my head.

Land's greeting was not a greeting, but rather sarcastic.

Last year, he approached Richell first and spoke to her like this. The reason was, of course, not because I was happy with the person in front of me.

"Land Agriche."

A middle-aged man with a solid, heavy rocky feel turned to us.

He also said he couldn't deceive blood, his face resembled Cassis Fe Deli's eye.

However, if Cassis was delicately drawn with a thin brush, the Richelle side felt like a bolder drawing with a thicker brush.

The inside of the chilly wall, which has a different color from Cassis, first reached Land Agriche.

"I see the chief of Qing."

After that, Lischel's glance touched her greeted me briefly and was nailed back to Land.

Seeing that Sylvia's figure was not visible, it seemed that she was the one who had disappeared up the stairs a while ago.

Like her last year, Richell stared at Land with her eyes so cold that her hair was screaming.

People who walked to share her greetings with Lischel stopped feeling the atmosphere flowing between the two.

Some of them had an expression of "It's starting again."

Land, like her last year, tweaked her mouth, first struggling with Richell.

"I still have a face I want to grind."

"If you hit with the face you want to give each other, would you do it? I want to tell you to look in the mirror."

Surprisingly, Lischel was also attacking Land with a cool voice.

If Land is fire, Richell is water; if Land is boiling lava, Richell is close to the cold frozen deep sea.

Rand, who had crumpled her face at her Richell's words, again pulled up the tail of her mouth and picked up her words.

"So it turns out that your daughter also came with me this time, right? In the meantime, you only went around inside the Fedelian and why did you bring it out this time?"

It's really bad taste.

The meaning of Landt's words was so clear.

He has been mocking Lischel, who has been specially guarding her daughter Sylvia in Fedelis since Cassis' work.

Even last year, he did a sloppy thing to Lischel Fedelian asking how he was to Cassis.

Probably, not only at the reconciliation meeting, but also at the meetings of the heads separately, it is clear that they always talked about Cassis in this way and angered Lischel.

Land was the one who had kidnapped Cassis, and I knew that Cassis was dead at my hand. Nevertheless, he deserved to say that to Lissell that she was indeed a bad taste.

Of course Cassis was still alive, contrary to Landt's idea, but that doesn't mean that Lischel's anger is lessened.

It was true that Landt tried to kill his son, and Richell will never forget it for the rest of her life.

I stepped forward, feeling the sharply frozen air that made my skin aching.

"Then, it turns out that the nobleman of Qing did not come together this year."

As she smiled and said, a glass-like transparent and cold wall slid at me. At the same time, a lowly bliss came from Land, who was next to her.

"… … I think I'll be late because I'm busy with other public affairs."

Lyschel, who quietly looked down at me with unknown eyes inside her, finally broke a short silence and she replied.

Landt laughed at him and groaned.

"Don't you say so last year? Come to think of it, it's been three years since I saw your son's handsome face. I'm curious how many years it's such a great public affair that it doesn't look like a peep."

But instead of responding to Rant's resentment, Richelle just looked down at me without a second.

I looked up at Lichelle with her smile and took her step back behind her.

"Ok. You're just late, so you'll have to wait with anticipation for the rest of the time."

"Yes, I'm looking forward to it. I hope I can meet your precious son again during this reconciliation meeting."

Landt laughed and sympathized with me.

He and I first left, leaving Lichelle Fedeliyan behind.

"Fool. How can I bring a man who has no flesh left after he died, and he is still bragging about it."

"But it's fun to be struggling."

"That's right."

As if he was reminiscing about what was a while ago, Land suddenly laughed with his eyes.

I also smiled as if I was happy next to Land.
