【Chapter 153】
“…?”
No way.
No, surely not…
But just in case, let me test it.
“Ah, wait. Hold on. I was mistaken. You’re Malbin, right? Tell me honestly.”
No reaction.
“No. Are you Brother Sedric?”
No reaction.
Huh. This time there’s no reaction. Was I imagining it earlier?
Then Lucas sighed and said.
“How could that bastard be Sedric? No matter how much of irredeemable trash my brother is, he wouldn’t ram a 16-year-old girl with a carriage.”
A flinch.
“….”
It was quiet, but I seemed to have heard an answer.
This time I definitely felt the trembling of the blade.
‘What? Why are you reacting?’
Suddenly I had a bad feeling, and my scalp started sweating profusely.
I had expected that I might face Sedric someday.
But I never thought our first meeting would be with all three siblings together, and as kidnapper and kidnapping targets at that.
‘…I should probably talk about this, right?’
Whatever this guy’s real identity is, it’s suspicious that he reacts to the name Sedric anyway.
I swallowed nervously and carefully brought up the topic.
“Brother Lucas. This spy keeps flinching every time we mention Sedric.”
“…What does that mean?”
“Exactly what I said. He doesn’t react to other names, but only to the word Sedric…”
“So you’re saying.”
I flinched and stopped talking while calmly explaining.
And then.
“The spy in front of us is probably Sedric, is that it?”
He suddenly interrupted with a cold voice, asking as if chewing on the words.
Wait. That brother looks like his eyes have rolled back.
“No, I’m not saying that’s the case, just that it’s strange how he keeps reacting…”
“So the conclusion is that there’s a high possibility of that, right?”
No, why do you keep asking back so menacingly?
A chilly silence flowed for a moment.
Rowan, no, the spy who had been pointing his sword at me also seemed not to have expected this situation.
He seemed to be quietly watching the situation for now.
But if the man next to me really is Sedric.
No, if Brother Lucas becomes convinced that this man is Sedric, what will happen?
‘What will happen? We’ll find out now.’
Right. There’s no need to be scared.
Unlike in the past, the current Lucas was a reasonably rational person.
He’s going to be the next head of the family, so he’ll handle this much better than me.
As I nodded, trusting my brother—
“Yeah. It does seem strange,”
“That means then…”
Lucas, who was continuing to speak, took a breath for a moment.
“He rammed his own sister with a carriage.”
Thud—!
‘Thud…?’
What earthquake is this?
Even as I looked around the dark surroundings, the voice continued.
“Kidnapped her,”
Thud—!
‘…?’
This time the carriage suddenly shook and my bottom floated up into the air.
And then—
“The shameless bastard who even took her hostage is your real brother and my damn older brother!”
With a loud crashing sound, the sword that had been aimed at my throat disappeared.
“Brother!”
I quickly tore off the cloth that had been covering my face.
At the same time,
‘…Good Lord.’
I faced the hell that unfolded before me.
Lucas had charged at the man like a buffalo and climbed on top of him, slapping his cheeks.
The spy, still in Rowan’s appearance, couldn’t move and was getting beaten up.
“Stop disguising yourself like a coward and show your real face!”
Was it my fault for trusting my brother, the future head of the family?
Before that, it might have been wrong for that guy who kidnapped us to react sensitively to the name Sedric.
But more important than anything else.
“This is inside a carriage, you fool!”
That was right.
The place where the kidnapper had taken us was inside a narrow, moving carriage.
In the midst of that, Lucas, who was over 180cm tall, was thrashing around and hitting someone, making the inside of the carriage shake unsteadily as if there was an earthquake.
Of course, the other party didn’t just take it either.
The man who had been just taking the hits blocked Lucas’s punch and grabbed it.
And grinding his teeth, he began to counterattack.
When Lucas backed away to avoid the man’s incoming punch, the carriage tilted to the right.
“Ahhh—! Stop it, we’re all going to die at this rate!”
I rolled and crashed into the right wall, screaming, but it had no particular effect.
“What’s happening back there? We’re going to have an accident at this rate!”
Instead, the coachman, who noticed something was wrong from my scream, burst out cursing, saying he didn’t want to die either.
Then soon—
“I don’t care, it’s your fault. Damn it!”
There was a sound of something snapping.
“…Ahhh—!”
“Da, damn it!”
“Ugh…!”
It seemed to be the sound of the link connecting the carriage and horses breaking.
When the horses that had been supporting the weight disappeared, the carriage, unable to bear the weight of the two men, toppled over to the right.
“…Oh no, am I dying…?”
I squeezed my eyes shut expecting a big impact, but something was strange.
The carriage didn’t overturn.
Puzzled, I looked out the window and my eyes widened.
Instead of a dirt path, I could see the horizon of sky and sea.
This place had been a coastal road.
As soon as I grasped the situation, I squeezed my eyes shut and shouted.
“Oh no, I’m really going to die—!”
* * *
Splash-!
“Ahhh!”
Something suddenly slapping my cheek forced my eyes open.
It was a wave.
‘Thank goodness I didn’t die.’
What happened?
I remember the carriage falling into the sea…
“…Ugh.”
As my consciousness returned, my entire body began screaming in earnest.
First, the leg I had sacrificed while trying to avoid the carriage at the manor throbbed hotly.
The dress I was wearing was completely soaked, weighing heavily on my body, and my fingers were swollen round like a frog’s from wandering in the sea for so long.
So my body being a complete wreck… I understand that well enough.
“Then where is this place?”
I looked around.
There was nothing beyond the sea. As if I had drifted to an isolated island.
If there was anything nearby, I would see twinkling lights on the horizon or ships.
…Gulp.
Trying to ignore the anxiety rising in my throat, I turned around.
‘There might be people living on this island…’
But the moment I saw the jungle-like forest tangled with coconut palm trees.
“Ugh-.”
I poked both eyes with my fingers.
Gently, of course.
I’m buying unseeing eyes.
‘It’s an uninhabited island. Definitely an uninhabited island.’
Even the ominous crimson flower I encountered before poking my eyes.
If that crimson flower is ‘that flower’ I know, then this place is…
“Aisha!”
Then I heard Lucas’s voice from not far away.
“Brother?”
Turning my head toward the sound, I saw him running toward me, his clothes soaked like mine.
Lucas, who had come close, roughly pushed back his wet hair and asked.
“Are you okay? Your body? You must be very cold? I’ll take off my clothes for you.”
Lucas, his face creased with worry, hurriedly tried to remove his shirt.
“Brother. Covering me with wet clothes will only make me colder.”
“Ah.”
“And my eyes don’t want to see your bare body either.”
At my words, he quickly hid his slightly exposed abs.
“Ah, ah. Right. Sorry. If I hadn’t gotten excited in the carriage earlier, this situation wouldn’t have happened… Finding out that the one who kidnapped you was none other than my own brother made me lose my mind…”
Lucas seemed to have finally come to his senses.
Uncharacteristically blaming himself and constantly rubbing his face dry.
Honestly, I wanted to hit him, but I understood that even if I were the brother, I wouldn’t have been able to control my anger…
“…”
Hmm. No.
I’m smarter than my brother, so I would have tried to hold back my anger inside the carriage.
Conclusion. This needs scolding.
Crossing my arms, I glared as menacingly as possible.
“Lucas. Reflect on yourself. Someone who wants to become the head of the family can’t control a single emotion?”
“…Sorry. I really shouldn’t have done that.”
At my words, he kept biting his lower lip and hung his head.
If my brother had ears and a tail, they would have drooped.
“You won’t just get angry first from now on, right?”
“Of course. I already beat that bastard up, so what else is there to be angry about?”
Hmm. That’s true.
Solemnly nodding and accepting his apology, I immediately turned my gaze to survey the surroundings.
“Brother. By the way, where did that spy go?”
Since Lucas and I were swept to the same place, Rowan must have lost consciousness somewhere nearby.
We had to catch him before he woke up.
With my brother’s support, I stood up and began walking along the beachfront, limping.
Soon, I encountered a man who was already conscious and sitting not far away.
It wasn’t Rowan.
It was an even more surprising opponent, and my whole body stiffened the moment I saw him.
The same was true for Lucas, who was supporting me.
Black hair.
Red eyes that looked exactly like me, no, like Callipus.
A man whose features were overall deeper and sharper-looking compared to Rowan.
It was Sedric.
‘…For a moment I thought it was Father.’
“…It really is… Sedric.”
While I was thinking that, Lucas muttered with a stiff face.
Now that we were face to face, his voice trembled slightly as if childhood memories were coming back.
“Brother…”
“Fuck.”
“Huh?”
“Fuck, that fucking bastard did that to his own little sister…!”
“Brother.”
Stop. Wait. Sit.
Please just stay calm.
