27 – Brother Stepsister
“So, Nigras, has everything been going well?”
“Yes, brother! As you can see, the gardening is going well, and it seems that my colleagues are adjusting to life here to some extent.”
She is a beautiful woman who hugs me and talks to me without hesitation.
Looking at Nigras, a smile automatically started to form on my lips.
However, that smile was not like a lover’s, but a smile that contained emotions as an ‘older brother’.
Although Niglas has a look that surpasses all the beauties I have ever seen, I have treated her not as her woman but as her pure sister, even at this moment.
Because to me, a person named Niglas has always been that way.
“It’s nice, I’m glad I left the job to you, too, Niglas.”
“Huh, of course it is. Even if it looks like this, you are my brother’s younger brother? I’m used to helping my brother with work when he’s busy.”
Niglas, who speaks proudly while looking at me,
Currently, in addition to tending the garden in front of me, she is also working as the temporary manager of the demon residence.
Although she was the youngest among the officers, she was one of the main players who had been by my side for the past 20 years leading the cause of conquering the world.
She was evenly friendly with the other demons without any angularity, and as much as she was even in the position of being my step-sister, the leader, I could see that she was in a higher position than others.
From my point of view, now that Niyalé, the most competent person and right-hand man among the executives, is out, the only person I can trust in this kind of work is Niglas, and in fact, she has suffered considerable frustration for a little over a month. He had been controlling the demons that he had no choice but to feel.
However, at this moment, I was making the decision that the time had come to end her temporary leadership role.
“Is that true, brother? Then..”
“That’s right, permission has finally been granted from that side. With this, Niyale has been appointed as an A-rank Hunter, and since she has permission to add additional personnel, she will be able to turn her comrades outside in earnest. .”
“That went really well, to be honest, everyone, including myself, was getting frustrated, but now I can finally go out.”
Niglas looks genuinely pleased with my words.
Seeing her like this, I also automatically started to smile at the corners of my lips.
‘Honestly, it must have been extremely frustrating to have been stuck in this narrow space for the past month… Now that’s over, too.’
Colleagues who have been living in a closed space reminiscent of a military training center. The main reason for this was that it was necessary to educate them about modern human society, and another reason was that there was no space outside that we could properly base on.
Although I had a one-room house, it was a place that honestly felt cramped even for my brother and I to live alone.
If someone saw a large number of people rushing in and out of a place like this, it would draw unnecessary attention.
This situation was the same as Lee Hae-na, who was made into a demon this time… But now I don’t have to worry about these things anymore.
Recruitment permission from Asgart.
This included the content that, according to Hunter Guild regulations, if the number of group members exceeds 6, a personal branch can be established.
In other words, this literally means that we have prepared a place that we can use as a base, and it means that the demons can roam the outside much more freely than before.
Of course, it still needed a little more time as there were still problems with management and adaptation to wander around without any restrictions, but at least it was possible to go around the outside in turns like soldiers on vacation. Could be said to have lost.
“Then, knowing that, prepare yourself, especially since you, Niglas, will be working as hunters in earnest like Niyale from now on, so prepare your mind.”
“Yes, I understand, brother!”
Niglas smiles brightly with joy in my words.
Seeing her like this, I naturally reached out and started stroking her hair.
From noble mtl dot com.
Suddenly, I felt a new regret for Yuni, who had only looked at me yesterday with a sad face..

Seon Woo-yoon.
She is the younger sister of Seon Woo-jin, the manager of the Hunter Guild, and a woman who had been lying in a hospital bed waiting for the day she would die just a month ago.
However, now miraculously healed, she is slowly but steadily regaining her life, and since a week ago, she has finally resumed her school life, which she has always wanted to return to.
“Did you pack all the books? Anything missing…”
“There is no such thing, so stop asking. Do you know what kind of kid I am?”
“No.. I was just worried..”
“It’s okay, now that I’m healed, I don’t have to worry. Get ready to go to work soon.”
With those words, Seon Woo-yoon opens the door and goes outside.
She left the house as if she was running away, even though there was still a long way before her school start time, and a deep sigh began to flow from Seon Woo-jin’s mouth as she saw her.
‘Really… How long will he growl like that?’
Even before she got sick, she was a younger sister who had her own charm and cute side.
However, in her appearance now, there was almost no trace of that past.
Feels like sharp thorns are sprouting.
She felt sorry for that fact once again, and at the same time thinking about the need to be patient, Seon Woo-jin began to prepare her for work.

“… Ha..”
Seon Woo-yoon takes the elevator and goes down to the first floor.
At this moment, a deep sigh began to escape from her mouth.
‘In the end… I ended up replying like that again…’
The more I thought about it, the more frustrated I felt about the situation at the time.
However, no matter how hard she tried not to, just before that, she had once again poured out a reaction she hadn’t thought of.
She showed only her cold reaction towards her brother who was kind to herself and worried about her.
However, regarding this, Seon Woo-yoon already clearly knew what the reason was.
‘My brother did nothing wrong. The problem is because of me?.. I got sick on my own. But instead of thanking my older brother, he hurled swear words at me and told me to get off.’
Looking back now, the more I look back, the more vividly I remember myself at that time.
My dissatisfaction with the invisible reality of hope was turned to his brother, who must be feeling much greater pain than himself.
The guilt caused by that fact made Seon Woo-yoon unable to treat her brother comfortably, and this feeling was being expressed in a distorted form of cold treatment towards his brother.
‘Would this guilt be resolved if I apologized to my brother? I’m really sorry until now, I’m really sorry that you had to go through such hardships because of me..’
Seon Woo-yoon arrived on the first floor with such thoughts in mind.
Then she tried to steer her way towards the school.
Her affair with her brother, thinking that she must sooner or later sort it out herself.
Then…
“.. Huh?”
The next moment, due to the appearance of a person she began to see in her eyes, Seon Woo-yoon unknowingly stopped her steps as she was.
A woman standing in front of the front door of an apartment building with her body leaning against her.
With her Western-style appearance, red hair and blue eyes, her face was more beautiful than any other person Yoon had ever seen in her life.
‘Who are you?.. What kind of celebrity are you? Why is such a person here…’
While thinking about her, she was unknowingly taking her eyes off Yun.
Then… Looking at Yoon like that, a deep smile began to grow on the corner of the beauty’s mouth…
“?!”
Then, as it were, she slowly began to approach Yoon.
