The Hero’s Brother Is Bound To Be Depressed - Chapter 278



279 – Dancing with Bella – Last Dance

After receiving a call from the Perlkus family, Ilaide, the head of the Praks family, immediately led his men to the Perlkus family. When they arrived at Perkus Mansion, Jinxian and Raelan appeared.

Jin Xian: Did you rush over when you heard that there was the Four Emperors?

Ilade: Who are you?

Jin Xian: The Four Princesses’ escort.

Ilade: (Snorts) You have spirit.

Jin Xian: Let me make a suggestion.

Ilade: What is it?

Jin Xian: I will eliminate the evil that will destroy the North. Instead, please cooperate with us.

Ilade: I don’t know what nonsense this is. Hey, Raelan. Did you fall for such nonsense?

Raelan: (Snake’s smile) Don’t you know what I mean by being attached to this side? There is no one who can see through me more than the matriarch of Praks.

Ilade: … Still, this is unbelievable.

Jin Xian: Then you have to speak with force.

As Jin Xian materialized the Spear of Shadow, the subordinates around Ilaid drew their weapons. When Ilaid beckoned, his men fell back, but did not let down their guard against Jin Xian.

Ilade: (smiling) Okay, everyone step aside. I am not responsible if you get hurt!

As soon as he finished speaking, Ilaid took out his sword and swung the sword filled with enormous magical power at Jin Xian. However, Jin Xian, who was already preparing for Ilade’s attack, created a dimensional passage and blasted Ilade’s attack to Ilade’s side, while at the same time changing the shape of the spear to stab from an impossible angle, aiming for the neck.

Suddenly, when her attack was reflected and aimed at the side, Ilaide had no choice but to forcibly twist the magic power she had used to stop the attack, and was unable to move her body for a moment due to the recoil of magic power. Ilaid bit his lip at the thought of being hit by a spear blade that came at him from an angle he couldn’t respond to, but no pain occurred as time passed. Jin Xian stopped the spear in front of his neck. Of course, if he had decided to kill Ilaid, it was obvious that he would have been fatally injured.

When the sword master, Ilaide, was overpowered in an instant, the subordinates who were watching ignored the order to retreat and rushed to attack Jin Xian to save the head of the family. Then Ilade hurriedly stopped them and shouted.

Ilade: Stay still! Don’t let anyone come forward!

When Jin Xian shrugged his shoulders and put away his spear, Ilaide furrowed her eyebrows and then smiled empty-handedly.

Ilade: How did you read my first move? It looks like he reacted as if he had been waiting.

Jin Xian: It’s a talent I’ve already seen before. It was a method that would work just once for you who didn’t know my abilities.

Ilade: Hmm, I still don’t understand. Worst of all, why did you stop when you could have killed me?

Jin Xian: I told you so. I want you to join. There is no need for the body of an old man who is not the head of the Prax family.

Ilade: Insolent b*stard. Okay, what do you want from me?

Jin Xian: I want the North’s losers, Praxx and Perlkus, to join forces and support the Four Empresses.

Ilaid: The Four Princesses… ?

Jin Xian: Because she is the true emperor’s treasure.

Most of it was incomprehensible nonsense, but Ilaide, intrigued by the young man who had overpowered him, decided to listen to the details. Ilaid, who was invited to the Perlkus Mansion, was able to hear a detailed explanation from Raelan. Even Jin Xian’s identity and secrets.

Ilade: Can you believe that? The future is absurd.

Raelan: My lord has proven himself sufficiently to me. He said he would prove it to you if you promised to cooperate.

Ilade: (Interested face) In what way?

Jin Xian: We will head to the place where the devil is sealed. It will be proof that what I say is true.

Ilade: Are you planning to awaken the devil?

Jin Xian: If you want that.

Ilade: Crazy, do you know what that means? If we make a mistake, the devil will ravage the North. A lot of people will get hurt!

Jin Xian: So I said, if you want. Of course, we can seal the devil forever in a safe way. How can you believe me?

In response to Jin Xian’s question, Ilaid scratched her chin and eventually had no choice but to nod. Above all, since something so interesting had happened in the boring North, Ilaid’s personality made it impossible for her to just watch. Of course, Ilade had no idea that Jin Xian, who read Ross’s memories, was aiming for that.

Although it was late at night, they decided to leave immediately. The destination was the lighthouse at the end of the wall. Jin Xian wrapped Bella, who was asleep, in a blanket and put her in the carriage. As the head of the Praks family, Ilaid did not make up her mind hastily. Ilade, who was riding in the carriage and asking Jin Xian about various things, nodded when Jin Xian answered naturally without stuttering or worrying. There were no obstructions or contradictions in the answer. The absurd claim that it came from the future did not seem at all false.

The carriage stopped and everyone got out. To get to the lighthouse, we had to walk across the wall for three hours. Jin Xian, carrying the sleeping Bella, walked up the wall in the lead. The rare soldiers guarding the wall were so surprised to see the Prax matriarch and his subordinates that they had taken off their helmets or woke up their seniors who had fallen asleep. Moving quickly and without saying a word, they reached the end of the barrier in two hours and followed Jin Xian straight to the lighthouse.

When I knocked on the door of the old lighthouse, Delan, the lighthouse keeper from Ross’ memory, opened the door looking 10 years younger. Delan, who was taken aback by the unexpected guest who came in the wee hours of the morning, skillfully brought everyone into the lighthouse and made warm tea. Due to a lack of cups, several people had to drink tea from bowls.

After warming up to some extent, Jin Xian woke up and gently stroked Bella’s head while she was sipping tea, and then calmly explained the purpose of coming to the lighthouse. Just as Ross did, he talked about why the lighthouse was built and how to solve the lighthouse’s secrets, took out a book from the bookshelf in the lighthouse, organized the order of the pages himself, showed it to everyone, and explained the conditions of the reflector along with an explanation of the carvings on the wall. explained.

Delan, who suddenly learned the truth about the lighthouse, began to sob and shed tears, and Ilaide comforted him by stroking his back. When Jin Xian climbed to the top of the lighthouse and manipulated the reflector, a huge light erupted into the sea of ​​darkness, soon creating a path of light leading to the temple. Jin Xian then attempted to create an improvised raft with her seeds, but Ilaid used her magical powers to create a path of ice through which they could cross to the temple.

This time, everyone, including Delan, headed to the temple. Jin Xian, who destroyed the barrier installed in the temple with the Spear of Destruction, warned in advance about the twin brothers who would appear if they entered. As we entered the temple, Ilaid dealt with the twin brothers who appeared shortly after as warned. Bella, who was looking at the bone on the floor with curious eyes, was about to extend her hand when Jin Xian stopped her. Jin Xian smiled at Bella, who looked regretful, and walked inside, holding her hand and saying he would give her something else good.

Heading toward the center, people were able to find a door leading down to the basement that Jin Xian had mentioned. And on top of that, five corpses, reduced to skeletons, were found lying in a circle. They had even experienced the illusion that Jin Xian had mentioned, and now they could believe that what Jin Xian had said was true. Ignoring them, Jin Xian walked to the desk with Bella and picked up a fountain pen decorated with platinum. Greed leads to anger. So I deliberately didn’t tell anyone about God’s fountain pen. Except for Bella, who will receive a gift.

Jin Xian: This is God’s fountain pen. You can copy magic scrolls infinitely. You can draw magic techniques, and there are many different ways to use them.

Bella: (looking in surprise) The magic scroll… ?

Jin Xian: If you were smart, you would have realized its value without having to explain it. This will be the most powerful weapon for you who have nothing. Hide it well.

Bella looked at the fountain pen held out by Jin Xian, then raised her gaze and looked at Jin Xian. Jin Xian smiled and answered Bella, who looked like she didn’t understand why he was doing this to her.

Jin Xian: Should I say it’s a writer’s instinct? I want to see the story unfold differently. I think a story about you saving the world would be fun. Okay, I have one more gift for you.

Jin Xian took out a blank book from the space warehouse. She then put her magic into God’s fountain pen and copied the contents of her ‘setting book’ into a blank book. Jin Xian put the fountain pen in the book and placed the book in Bella’s arms.

Jin Xian: (Smiling) How you use this is your choice.

Bella: (with tears in her eyes) You are always sincere to me.

Jin Xian: Because that is my cowardly wish.

Bella: After all, you are my hero.

Jin Xian: (Laughs) Kids aren’t my type.

Bella put the book she was holding on the desk. She then looked at her Jin Xian with tear-filled eyes and held out her one remaining hand.

Bella: You plan to leave like this, right?

Jin Xian: Even, quick-witted kids are not my type.

Bella: Then dance with me.

Jin Xian: Why?

Bella: Because I started liking it. You are the only person in the world who is sincere to me. So I will dance my first dance for you too. Because this is the last time.

Jin Xian: (Sigh) This is why I hate unruly kids.

Jin Xian held Bella’s hand. And she danced with Bella.

♪We’re walking on a tightrope

♪Hand in hand, rising higher and higher

♪Promise that we will never let go of each other

♪We’re walking on a tightrope

♪Feeling the world become smaller and the wind passing through my hair

♪How deep can we fall

♪We’re walking on a tightrope

♪But life is an adventure after all

♪The higher you go, the more of the world you can see.

♪We’re walking on a tightrope

♪If I fall off the rope, will you catch me?

♪If you fall I’ll follow you

After finishing the dance, Bella left Jin Xian’s arms and picked up the book she had left on the desk without saying a word. Jin Xian looked at Bella who turned her body and then turned to Raelan and Ilaid who were waiting for her.

Jin Xian: Can you believe me now?

Ilade: Yes, I have no choice but to believe it… I will help the Four Empresses become emperor.

Jinxian: The combination of Prax’s strength and Perlkus’ intelligence will be of great help to Bella. Your job is to watch over Bella until she grows up. Let her keep in mind that only by becoming her emperor can she save her world.

Raelan: Are you planning on leaving for another world?

Jin Xian: Yes, unless you plan to awaken the devil, seal this place forever.

Ilaid: Let’s take down the lighthouse. So that no one can find this place.

Jin Xian: Okay, now it’s up to you to decide.

Jin Xian turned his body and made a passage. Unlike the passages that Ross has created so far whose destination is unknown, this is a passage that can lead to a place where the answers to all of this can be known.

Raelan: Do you ever plan on coming back?

Jin Xian: Well, but you will meet me in the current world 10 years from now. It might be me or another me.

Raelan: Then there will be no problem if we betray the Four Princesses.

Jin Xian: Even without me, you wouldn’t betray the Four Princesses.

Raelan: You are sure.

Jin Xian: Because there is no fool here who would throw away the huge piece of gold that rolled into his hands.

Jin Xian looked at Bella’s back as she turned around. Her shoulders were shaking slightly. Jin Xian turned her body and walked towards her passage. And he spoke over her shoulder just before entering the aisle.

Jin Xian: I hope to dance better next time.

Jin Xian smiled at the powerful answer coming from behind him and walked toward the passage.
