0 – Prologue
The most crucial thing in the world is adaptability.
“Just regain your composure, even if bitten by a tiger.”
As the saying goes, calm and composed handling is always the most crucial solution for humans.
Whether falling into the world of romance fantasy,
or realizing that the possessed target is the protagonist’s sibling,
or being inevitably entangled by the author, who is like a moving nuclear bomb named the older brother,
just regain composure.
Never indulge in self-pity.
I have always overcome obstacles by poking at myself.
Therefore, I could confidently assert that I was as unrivaled in cool composure as anyone.
But…
Fate, as if judging me for exceeding pride and reaching arrogance, bestowed upon me a crafted calamity.
“To dare to annul the engagement with the imperial family… Unparalleled arrogance, House Hohenberg.”
“….”
Just as I defeated the final boss and welcomed the epilogue, the author, who was my older brother, fled with the saintly maiden who had been the female lead. Damn him, he even declared a breakup to his long-engaged third princess.
Damn human.
I knew he was irresponsibly carefree, but… I never thought it would be this bad.
Does he not care about the remaining family members at all?
It was beyond disappointment, almost to the point of feeling anger.
“Where has Maximilian gone?”
“We do not know the whereabouts of our brother….”
“We know he is a hero representing the continent. But that can’t be an excuse. Don’t you think so too, Edanant von Hohenberg?”
“…Yes, of course.”
Romance fantasy,
‘The Lady of White Blessings’
A work filled with familiar clichés where the commoner heroine, after experiencing various episodes, awakens as a saint and, alongside the male protagonists, defeats the wicked demon king.
The work has reached its conclusion.
And when I saw the author’s announcement that Part 2 is in preparation—
Closing my eyes and then opening them, I found myself embodying a character in the work.
…It’s really absurd.
To become the younger brother of Maximilian, the popular warrior who ranked first in the popularity vote among the male protagonists being managed by the heroine Beatrice.
“The crime of deceiving the royal family is heavy. Naturally, it should be dealt with severely. As a knight who has protected the royal family and as a sister who has cared for her younger sister… I will by no means overlook this incident.”
Beautiful as a well-ripened wheat field, her golden hair.
Intense anger simmered in her distinct and vivid crimson eyes.
Under normal circumstances, even the goddesses of mythology would be captivated by her beautiful appearance, but unfortunately, there was no room for that now. She was an emissary sent by the royal family with full authority.
‘Ah, no matter how grave the crime is… the appearance of the red dragon of the Valtaria Empire is extraordinary.’
Second Princess of the Valtaria Empire.
Rudmila Drage Valtaria.
Successor to the red dragon.
Representative of the Valtaria Empire, a top-tier among the heroes and monsters of the Seven Great Powers.
By the way, she just turned twenty-seven this year.
Unmarried.
A monster among monsters, difficult to gauge even for Maximilian, who rose to the top as the strongest by destroying the demon army alongside the saint Beatrice. An absolute existence that the author nailed down as having surpassed human limits.
Where in the world could one find a person who wouldn’t be frozen in the presence of such a being?
The cold composure he once considered his greatest strength had disappeared without a trace this year.
“Damn, that bastard called my brother…! I should immediately ask father to disown him from the family register!”
Such a ‘family’-like guy.
Running away irresponsibly?
Not even aware that he’s being managed?
From this moment on, the brother who had been with me for ten years is no more.
No,
In the first place, there was never a brother to me.
Having fallen head over heels for the heroine, he not only broke off the engagement with the third princess but also abandoned the family and fled. He’s no longer family.
“….”
Of course, for now, escaping from the current situation was the first priority.
The red dragon, who had come to eliminate the trash that had harmed her younger sister.
While looking at the princess of the red dragon burning with rage, he swallowed dry saliva.
