The Hero’s Brother Is Bound To Be Depressed - Chapter 336
337 – Thought Notes
Since it was too late for breakfast, I took some food out of the storage room and had breakfast with Luna. Since food does not spoil or cool down when stored in a storage space, you can enjoy a delicious meal even in bed.
After the meal, I saw the cute figure dozing off, probably tired, so I laid her down on the bed so she could rest well, and using space magic, I returned to my room without being noticed by anyone.
I had nothing else to do, so I was spending some time organizing my warehouse when someone knocked on my door. When I opened the door, what I saw was Luna’s third brother, Louis Belle, who had been drawing a line on her neck with her hand since yesterday when they made eye contact.
Ruibel quickly scanned the inside with a suspicious look, wondering if Luna was in the room, and then sat down on a chair. As I sat down on the chair across from him, Ruibel immediately spoke as if she had been waiting.
“I came because I had something to tell you about my younger brother.”
It was a commanding voice, as if he was addressing a subordinate, but thinking of him as Luna’s older brother, I didn’t feel particularly bad. I answered in a polite manner.
“I will listen.”
Ruibel frowned for a moment, crossed her arms, fell asleep for a while, and then opened her mouth.
“Luna has been stuck at home for a long time, so she’s not good at interacting with other people. She’s still a good girl by nature, so she won’t go out of her way to be rude, but it’s a very ugly world, and she doesn’t fit in with the world of the weak and the strong like Transcendence Academy. “She actually experienced some bad things.”
I realized that Ruinen was truly worried about Luna, as his voice was full of concern and affection. Luna’s family really seemed to care about her a lot. It’s not that her family is overly worried, but with a good and loving child like Luna, I would naturally have the same concerns.
Ruibel paused for a moment, then deliberately cleared her throat and lowered her gaze.
“I’ve known you for a while before. And I think you will protect my little brother well. so… Well, it means you’re welcome.”
He is someone who glares harshly and draws a line around Luna’s neck whenever I come near him, but he still seems to recognize me as Luna’s boyfriend.
“thank you.”
” what… It’s true that when Luna met you, she became much brighter than before. “It’s natural for her brother to want his beloved sister to be happy.”
Unlike his fierce face, he seems to be surprisingly shy. Among Luna’s older brothers, he is a tsundere. Still, I was happy that there was someone who cherished and took care of the person I loved.

At lunchtime, Luna woke up late from her nap and we headed to the mansion’s banquet hall where Luna’s family was waiting.
We must have been the last ones, so all the other family members were seated. I quickly found an empty seat with Luna and sat down. But this time, fortunately, we were able to sit together, as if they didn’t intend to separate us.
As soon as we sat down, the meal began. There were a variety of foods on the table, and the sight reminded me of the Academy’s banquet hall. It’s not even the Academy, but there’s this much food… The food alone must be quite expensive. It seems that nobles are nobles.
Unlike yesterday, when he had a solemn expression, Luna’s father, Ruinen, with a gentle smile on his face that made me wonder if he was smiling like this, asked me in a friendly voice about my afternoon schedule while he was cutting Luna’s steak.
“There are many great places in the East to visit with couples. There are a lot of things to see. “I’ll give you a carriage, so how about having some fun?”
Luna’s family, who had been eating in silence at Ruinen’s words, came out in surprise and took turns looking at Ruinen. Ruinen seems to have been taken aback by his sudden change in attitude toward me.
“Thank you for the offer, but after dinner, I plan to return straight to the capital.”
“You’re going back already? Hehe, why don’t I spend a little more time with Luna.”
Ruinen was very disappointed, and Luna’s mother, who was sitting next to him and looking kindly at me and Luna, also agreed.
“Okay, it’s still vacation. How about spending a little more time together? “Luna is with her boyfriend, she looks so happy and it makes me feel good to see her.”
Honestly, if I hadn’t met the saint, I would have stayed here for several days. Because the days passed so quickly when she was with Luna. A few days passed quickly.
But now, I was weakened to the point that I had to predict the possibility of winning in a fight not only against Confsion, but also against the believers of the church. I couldn’t afford to take this much time to recover what I lost right away.
“Of course, I want to do that too, but there are a lot of things I have to do. Actually, I just took the time to see your face for a moment… .”
When I said that I was truly sorry, Ruinen nodded as if he understood.
“Yes, the Crown Princess is very busy right now. It is a sensitive time when even the nobles in the capital secretly talk about politics to the Grace family… .”
Ruinen, who was trailing off his words, cleared his throat loudly and smiled at me.
“I also need to discuss in detail the portal station I promised to the Crown Princess.”
At those words, the oldest, Louisville, who was sitting across from me and subtly threatening me with a steak knife, tilted his head.
“Portal station?”
I think Ruinen said yesterday that he was talking to his family about the portal… She wondered if it was an excuse to get out of her place due to the reaction from Louisville, which seemed to be the first time she had heard it in her life.
The eyes of Luna’s bewildered family, unable to follow the story, eventually focused on me. Luna, who was sitting next to me, looked at me with curiosity as it was her first time hearing this story. As she was scratching her forehead and thinking about how to explain it, Ruinen came forward with good timing.
“Yes, this is a great gift that our proud son-in-law has brought to the East. ha ha ha!”
I couldn’t see Luna’s older brothers, who were glaring at me with their faces contorted at the mention of son-in-law. Ruinen kept patting me on the back with a cheerful face, and I let out a heartless laugh.
It seems that the [Proposal Battle], in which the secretaries put their heads together, was a great success by maximizing the favorability of the father-in-law.
After the meal, we were seen off by Luna’s family to the portal station. She parted ways, promising Luna that she would see him again as soon as possible. Although she was a little teary-eyed, Luna sent me on her way with her happy face.
We arrived at the capital’s portal station and headed straight to the academy. When she opened the door to the club room and entered, for some reason the club room was full of books, unlike before. A very tired looking Kane appeared among the books piled high and dangerously close to the ceiling.
“Oh, are you here?”
“What were you doing? “Isn’t that what it looks like?”
In response to my question, Kane smiled with satisfaction, unlike his extremely tired face with dark spots under his eyes.
“How can I stay still when the knowledge of alchemy is floating around in my head? “I opened the book to look at just one book, but I couldn’t resist the alchemy unfolding in my head, so I ran straight to the library and borrowed everything I could.”
At first glance, it was a huge amount of over 100 volumes. I shook my head in bewilderment, but when I saw that the camping supplies that Kane had packed for his trip were still there next to the table, I asked with some doubt.
“… Are you sure you didn’t sleep at all after returning from your trip?”
“ok? “How much time has passed?”
In response to Kane’s answer, I washed my face dry. For some reason, he seemed sicker than usual and seemed to be so engrossed in his book that he didn’t notice the passage of time.
“Get some sleep. Then suddenly you collapse.”
“After hearing that, I suddenly feel really hungry and sleepy. “Then let’s take a little rest.”
After saying that and yawning profusely, Kane headed to Aria’s private bed where she usually lay down. Soon, the sound of her snoring echoed throughout the club room. It looks like he was very tired as expected.
Using Kane’s snoring as white noise, I sat down at the table and took out a notebook and pen from the space storage room.
I couldn’t decide what to do right away, so I thought about it for a while. I stare blankly at the empty space in my notebook. Finally, I started to move my pen and organize what I had lost and what I had gained.
Although he lost the Spear of Destruction that he used as his main weapon, the Spear of Shadow still remained. Considering that the saintess did not specifically talk about the Spear of Shadow, it appears that there will be no problem if she continues to use it.
Next was the issue of magical power related to space magic.
Magic power became a problem for me once again because I lost the magic power amplification that compensated for my lack of natural magic power. There are restrictions on using space magic as freely as before.
However, I thought that if I used the knowledge of magic power amplification and magicology recorded in the magic book left by Master Rotten, I would be able to use magic power amplification again by imprinting magic power amplification on my brain just like when I learned spatial magic.
However, imprinting the technique into the brain was a repetitive task that took quite a bit of time, so I had no choice but to put it on the back burner.
The indomitable courage that was useful in different situations was gone, but it was not something I needed right away, and it was difficult to find a replacement. This was also placed on the back burner of things to be done.
The berserker who was used as a set with indomitable courage gave up without any regrets. It was just a choice that I thought was the best at the time because it could be used in conjunction with indomitable courage.
If I didn’t have an innate fighting sense like Rakar, a berserker who lost his senses would be poisonous to me, who recognizes spatial coordinates and uses spatial magic during battle.
It was, of course, a great pity that the most useful battle continuation disappeared. It was a powerful power that cut into my lifespan, so I couldn’t help it, but it was also true that it had helped me a lot so far.
Since there is no way to continue the battle to escape the danger of death, we must fight more safely now. The fighting style that was tailored to the continuation of the battle had to be changed immediately. Now, if an arm or leg is cut off, it cannot be regenerated. I need help from Master Lycan for this.
I was lost in thought as I tapped my notebook with a pen.
If you ask Estelle and Bella for the immediate problem of magic power, the elixir will be able to cover it to some extent. Then, the top priority becomes what to fill the void left by the absence of battle continuation.
As the saint said, there were many ways I could become stronger. It was also possible to use discarded settings with great power, such as the Emerald Tablet. However, in most cases, it took too long to find or required special conditions.
… So what is the fastest way for me to become stronger right now? Something flashed through my mind.

Just with the memory of Ellie returning, the empty puzzle fell into place and a large picture was revealed.
You can be sure of the author’s sense of being able to read the flow of the story. Now is the time to use Quantum Jump.
However, it was impossible to use quantum jump right away. If Roel gets what I got, it’s obvious that it will be a loss. Choosing something unnecessary to Roel, such as magic knowledge, is going too far back.
Before using Quantum Jump, I must disconnect from Roel. And it occurred to me that there was only one person who could make it possible.
Ellie, the future great wizard and magical genius… It might be possible to use the clues I found to find a way to sever the connection with Roel.
I closed the notebook and asked myself a question.
How do I feel about Ellie? What kind of relationship should we have?
Even after a long period of thinking, I couldn’t find an answer.
