The Academy’s Weakest Became A Demon-Limited Hunter chapter 272

272 – Eve and her brother

I got up.

He scratched his messy hair. The chirping of sparrows outside the window announced the morning.

Sunlight penetrated the window and illuminated the room. The walls of the room were plastered with pictures of Isaac in school uniform.

Yves Lopenheim let out a deep sigh. The body was refreshed, but the mind was troubled.

‘School has started… .’

I haven’t talked to Isaac about anything since the Lopenheim Baron incident.

Vacation was over before I knew it.

… …

“A long time! Have you lost weight?”

“What did you do during vacation?”

“hi!”

Marchen Academy was crowded with students going to school.

In the mouths of the students, things that happened during the vacation were talked about. Among them, the biggest topic was by far the Baron Lopenheim case.

As this is a prestigious academy, the ratio of nobles is high. The full story of the Lopenheim Baron affair, which was widespread in aristocratic society, was also naturally heard.

“Did you hear that Baron Lopenheim was trafficking children?”

“huh. I was surprised to hear Also, senior Isaac solved that.”

“How. hehehe, senior Isaac… . I think I’ll fall for you again… .”

So, it was a natural flow for the news that Isaac was active.

Isaac himself didn’t quite realize it, but he was very popular at the academy. It was just that Luce’s murderous spirit surrounded him and the female students couldn’t bear to approach him.

Meanwhile, there was a third-year student walking despondently, overhearing the conversation among the female students. It was Isaac’s older sister, Yves Lopenheim.

“Yves!!”

“Cheukhak!”

A third-year girl with short bobbed hair, Alicia, ran over and hugged Eve from behind. Startled, Eve let out a grotesque scream.

“Long time no see, Eve!”

“Long time no see, Alicia… .”

“No matter how much you start, aren’t you too weak? Are you afraid that demons will come out again?”

“No, that is not… .”

“are you okay! Bingjenim said there would be no such incidents anymore! We’ve safely passed over the big cases so far, so what’s going to happen until we graduate?!”

The protests that started with numerous incidents still continued, and the protection system of the Imperial Knights became stronger.

Someone outside the academy asks why the academy is not closed. Of course. Because of various incidents, abandoning the education system of Merchen Academy and closing it is a bigger belly button than a stomach. In the first place, the option of closing the academy could not exist because it was being protected by the imperial government.

The academy had only the choice to continue somehow, and the students also hoped for it.

However, Eve’s lack of energy wasn’t because of the reason Alicia said.

‘That’s not it. It’s because I still haven’t had a chance to talk to Isaac… .’

Eve felt a strong sense of self-doubt for not talking to Isaac until the vacation was over.

I want to join the talk of the girls I don’t know who are going to school right now. I want to explain how handsome and cool my little brother is, and where and how s*xy he is… ! And I want to nail it perfectly, saying ‘I am Isaac’s older sister’… !

Just imagining it makes me excited. A sense of satisfaction is felt.

But I haven’t been able to talk to Isaac since the Lopenheim Baron incident.

None of the problems with Isaac had been resolved. In other words, to talk freely about being Isaac’s older sister would be a shameless act of not being considerate of her younger sister.

“Eve?”

“I know… . Nothing special will happen until we graduate, right?”

Eve let out a sigh pretending to be concerned.

… …

Class placement evaluation will be conducted after 3 days. Until then, students had to stay in temporary classes.

Eve reached the second-year floor of the Orphin Building, clutching a soda bottle, and sneakily peered into one of the makeshift classrooms.

Among the many students, there was a male student with glasses who gave off a particularly brilliant halo. It was Isaac.

Eve’s expression softened.

‘How can the way she organizes books be so lovely… .’

Brothers and sisters often fight, but Eve, who loved Isaac but had to separate from him, had no pride as an older sister.

I just admired my sister’s loveliness.

Students passing by the hallway broke out in a cold sweat as they looked sideways at Eve, who secretly peeped into the second-year classroom like a stalker. There were many students who witnessed Eve doing this last semester as well. Eve was a habitual offender.

However, Eve was so happy just watching Isaac that she didn’t care about other people’s eyes.

‘I need to talk to you soon… .’

Today, I decided to talk to Isaac without fail. I also bought a drink for that. It was to give Isaac a drink and talk to him.

After the placement evaluation, Isaac would of course enter Class A, and then there was a high probability that Isaac Baragi would stick with Isaac.

Now, you must be brave. Be brave. Eve was comforting herself.

Then, Isaac got up from his seat.

“Sigh… !”

Eve immediately leaned against the wall and hid. Automatic reflexive avoidance. I was surprised to think that Isaac would find me.

‘No, this isn’t it. It’s good to be discovered.’

From noble mtl dot com

My heart sinks reflexively when I run into Isaac because I keep thinking about the old days. Eve groaned and drooled.

I tried to muster up the courage again, but Eve finally chose to run away. because he was afraid

“… … .”

Stepping through the door, Isaac looked at Eve’s back as she left.

He knew long ago that Eve had been spying on him.

‘Why are you just leaving?’

Isaac learned about Isaac’s family history by defeating Baron Lopenheim.

He still did not know in detail what kind of relationship he had with Eve noona, or how he had lived. Besides, he was in a position where he had to focus on training, so he couldn’t pay attention to Eve’s problem.

So, I was leisurely waiting for Eve to talk to me first, but somehow I felt like I had to approach first.

Isaac moved on.

… …

Behind the Orphin tube. On the bench, Eve was holding a bottle of soda and sighing deeply.

“What are you going to say… ?”

The human heart is like a reed. No matter how firm your resolution is, your head shakes in the light wind.

I hesitate to approach Isaac. I was so frustrated with myself.

let’s talk you just have to talk All you have to do is say ‘hello’ and you’ll be fine. but… , that one word was difficult.

It shouldn’t be like this. How long are you going to hesitate?

There was a will in Eve’s eyes. She practiced talking by holding a drink bottle out in the air.

“’Hello, Isaac? Would you like to drink this? Hey, thank you for the work that day.’ … No, this is too formal. ‘Here, I picked it up. And that day, let me repay you.’ … I feel like this would just make me feel bad. ‘Thank you for saving me that day. this is a gift Can I talk to you sometimes… ?’ … Are you an adolescent girl?”

“What is your sister doing?”

“… … ?”

Behind the bench where Eve is sitting.

Isaac, a blue-silver haired male student, appeared and started talking.

“Huhhhhh!!!”

Eve screamed as if fainting. Isaac naturally covered both ears.

* * *

“Huh, huh… !”

For a moment Eve put her hand on her chest and breathed heavily. I had to take some time to calm my frightened heart.

I sat next to Eve and waited for her to speak. There were about 10 minutes left before orientation for the second semester began.

“Dodo, my younger brother, mu-mu-mu, what, what happened… ?”

“Brother?”

Eve covered her mouth with the palm of her hand. I was very nervous.

I turned my eyes to the soda bottle.

“Did you buy that for me?”

“huh? Ah, uh… .”

“thank you.”

When Eve held out a bottle of soda, she took it and took a sip. A sweet taste lingered on the tip of the tongue.

awkward silence. Eve hardened like a wooden doll. My brain would be confused.

To be honest, I don’t even know how to treat him. Because I don’t know, strictly speaking.

Even so, it is true that since this is the only flesh and blood relative of this body, it is more empathetic. Now I’m a kid.

Even more so, Eve had a deep affection for me. It was psychologically difficult to avoid such a person.

“Tell me.”

“huh?”

“What happened at the Baron Lopenheim. From the past to what happened this time.”

A story I hadn’t heard since I was on my way to catch the Commander’s Kalgart.

I decided to hear why Eve said she was sorry to me here.

Eve said, “Oh… .” He groaned and turned his head to the front.

silence for a while. And cautiously, Eve opened her mouth.

“huh. When we were young… .”

For about five minutes, Eve continued to talk non-stop. As if it had been prepared and prepared for a long time, the story was surprisingly concise and coherent, with only the key points pointed out without any hesitation.

At that time, it was clear that she had often been thinking about how to tell Isaac about her situation.

From the beginning, Eve intended to return to Isaac. I was thinking of taking responsibility for Isaac.

However, because the family was so poor, Eve decided to follow the proposal of Baron Lopenheim to feed Isaac when he grew up.

It was revealed that he planned to leave Baron Lopenheim once he obtained a diploma from the Märchen Academy.

I had also heard of the Baron Lopenheim case. There were stories about being restrained by the magic of darkness, and about being used as a sacrifice for some kind of ritual.

“Sorry… . I was so stupid… . I’m sorry for saying harsh words and leaving… .”

Eve shed tears like chicken droppings, perhaps because she felt sorry for her past choices. Feeling strong guilt, he couldn’t bear to make eye contact with me.

I took a sip of my drink and talked softly.

“At that time, we were young with each other. I also played in the hands of Baron Lopenheim. what power do we have don’t cry. Because I know how you feel.”

“Why are you more mature… .”

Eve sniffled for a moment before wiping away her tears and trying to capture her emotions.

“It’s not like the old you, so it’s still unfamiliar… . You, since when did you hide your identity?”

Stasis. It was clear what it meant.

Isaac, who has no talent for magic, is now recognized as the Archmage. It was a story about why he had not revealed such power before and hid it even from his family.

“I guess there was some kind of potential. After my mother died, I suddenly woke up one day. It’s hard to explain. I don’t even know what the principle is.”

“… Didn’t you hide it?”

“Yeah, no. Rather, how was the old me?”

“huh? Don’t you remember when you were little?”

I nodded.

“It seems like a side effect of waking up my potential, but I lost some of my memory. In particular, it seems that the older memories are, the more I have forgotten.”

It was a lie, of course. I was just saying this because I had no idea how I had been with Eve.

I decided that it would be best to say it like it is now.

If she lost her memory due to a mental shock, Eve would feel even more guilty.

It was clear that Eve would be in great shock or react in disbelief if she possessed and honestly revealed that she did not know.

That only increased my guilt.

“How did that happen… ?”

“Okay.”

“… … .”

While I was drinking, Eve cleared her throat, cleared her throat, and looked away from me.

And the story started.

“He kissed me every morning and every night.”

Are you talking about a good morning kiss or a good night kiss? I’ve seen it often in foreign movies.

“and?”

“We often bathed together… .”

When you’re young, you should do that. It must be when you didn’t know s*xual knowledge at all.

however… Something got weird.

“Whenever something happened, he would hug me, act cute, and always walk hand in hand. And it was like that every day. I will be like my older sister when I grow up. I’m going to marry my sister I don’t need anything but my sister… . I was an immature child who lived with only ‘I love you sister’. He said he would look at my face for 10 minutes before going to bed every day, and I was always reflected in your eyes.”

“… … .”

Was Isaac a Siscon? It could be, but… . Eve’s story was mixed with lies.

I found out by examining [psychological detection]. Eve was mixing up a few lies.

However, each time Eve told a lie, to her, what she said gradually became more and more like the truth. He was deceiving himself. As a result, it appeared as if Eve wasn’t lying.

Eve continued to speak while staring into space. Her face grew calmer, and the corners of her mouth lifted.

I stood still and could only listen to Eve’s words in silence. Her words became more and more lyrical, as if she were talking about the contents of a novel.

“Even as I got older, you only looked at me. Most of the days we slept hugging each other. I remember the warmth of your breath. That cute breathing sound is still vivid in my ears. When I stroked your hair, you always smiled and said you liked me. Even when we held hands and went to the flower garden. don’t you remember? You put a crown of flowers on my head. Just as I have protected you, you said you would protect me for the rest of your life when you grow up. You were kind like a spring breeze, and you were a bright child like the midday sun.”

“sister.”

“And again… .”

“sister.”

“huh… , huh?”

Eve, who was immersed in her own world, was brought into reality.

“The bell is off. Let’s talk later.”

“ah.”

The class bell was ringing. I had to go back.

“Yes… . Okay, let’s go back.”

We went into the Orphin tube.

“Here, Isaac.”

“uh.”

“Can we not go back to the way we were before?”

“… It seems difficult.”

“huh… , I guess. Enter carefully.”

Eve waved her hand at me and headed to the third grade floor.

At some point, I couldn’t figure it out.

Just now, from where and how far the memories Eve held were lies.
