The Hero’s Brother Is Bound To Be Depressed - Chapter 344
345 – Martial Arts
Seeing Ellie come out this strong, it seems like the only answer is to share life with Ellie.
Ellie smiled in satisfaction as she reluctantly nodded and gave permission.
Ellie stood up again, asking for a moment, and soon brought several books related to black magic.
“Because safety is important.”
Still, the emphasis on safety is trustworthy. Since I have already given permission, I have no choice but to trust and leave it to you.
However, the library is not a suitable place to use magic.
In particular, if black magic was used, there was a high possibility that the internal alarm would sound.
The club room was the only place to avoid other people’s eyes and warning magic.
Ellie also agreed to the suggestion to change seats.
After checking out all the books we brought, Ellie and I headed straight to the club room.
When I entered the club room, I found Kane still asleep, snoring loudly.
“You had a friend?”
When Ellie looked at me as if I was okay with her being here, I shrugged and said it didn’t matter.
“I’m feeling a bit dizzy because of the alchemy books, so let’s go to the island beyond the wardrobe.”
Since most of the tables were filled with books that Kane had borrowed, there was not enough space for us to use. The hideout is relatively clean, so it should be okay to stay with Ellie.
As we moved to the island beyond the closet, Ellie smiled happily as she felt the sea breeze.
“The island beyond the closet, it’s like a fairy tale.”
Then he turned to me with a mischievous expression and said something mischievous on purpose.
“It was supposed to be mine in the future… “You stole it secretly.”
“… “It wasn’t intentional.”
“It’s a joke. Now there is no reason to have a magic tower room in the academy. “I don’t care.”
After saying that and looking into the distance for a moment, Ellie turned and asked me.
“Shall we go?”
“okay.”
I headed to the hideout with Ellie. Ellie, who was looking around the hideout as if she was curious, soon finished looking at her and took a seat at her table.
Ellie, who had finished getting ready by putting the borrowed books aside and relaxing her hands, turned to me and asked.
“It will take some time to come up with a safe technique. “If you don’t have anything to do, you can just watch from the side.”
“Well, you wouldn’t even know if you looked. Should I at least prepare dinner?”
I can always happily provide food for a friend who works hard for me. It was dinner time anyway.
“really? “Then, thank you.”
“Okay, then please.”
After leaving Ellie in the living room, I headed to the kitchen. There were enough ingredients in the magic refrigerator, and there were many fresh ingredients stored in the storage space.
“Is there anything else you’d like to eat?”
I asked while looking into the living room, but it seemed as if Ellie was completely concentrating for a moment and was muttering to herself quickly while looking at her book.
It seems like he can’t hear me.
There was no need to break concentration, so I decided to decide the dinner menu on my own.
Once installed, we lit a fire in the brazier and placed a wok on it to boil the oil.
I was thinking of making pork cutlet for the first time in a while using the leftover tenderloin parts from before.
I plan to make cheese balls and fried shrimp with the remaining frying powder.
I cut vegetables to make a salad, and finished preparing the salad by pouring dressing mixed with homemade seasoning that I had previously made on top.
I decided to sprinkle curry powder on the carefully cut tenderloin to remove the unpleasant smell and let it marinate for a bit while I prepared the other ingredients.
I clumped up a little bit of frying powder and put it into the wok. It was confirmed that the oil was properly heated as it rose straight to the top.
I coated the marinated tenderloin with batter and put it straight into the oil. While the pork cutlet was being fried, she ground sesame seeds and poured a thick sauce on top to make a dipping sauce.
Hot rice was cooked on the other side of the brazier. Rice goes well with pork cutlet as a side.
It would be nice to have soybean paste soup, but unfortunately, there was no soybean paste in this world. I don’t even know how to make soybean paste.
Still, there was a salad to relieve the greasiness of the fried food, so all I needed was one more thing to fill the void left by the miso soup.
After all the meal preparations were completed, I put the food on the tableware and headed to the living room.
As I brought the food to the table, Ellie, who had been concentrating on her book, finally raised her head.
“Wow, it looks delicious.”
They served tenderloin pork cutlet, salad, fried shrimp, and cheese balls. And what was served to fill the empty space of the soybean paste soup was cold honey beer with ice floating on it.
Beer goes well with fried food. Highballs are okay too.
Ellie put down the book she was reading on the floor and pulled the bowl in front of her.
Ellie lifted her fork and took a bite of the pork cutlet, her eyes widened, and she looked at me with many things to say.
“If you ever think of becoming a housewife, let me know anytime. “If you serve it like this every day, I will go out and earn money.”
“Okay, I’ll give you a big pat on the back.”
We started our late dinner with jokes like that. Surprisingly, Ellie was as sincere about eating as Aria.
Ellie, who happily enjoyed her meal with various expressions, took a final gulp of honey beer to satisfy her appetite.
After finishing the meal, I cleaned up what I ate and returned to the living room. Ellie was engrossed in a book again.
Ellie, who had written down a lot of things in her notebook that I couldn’t recognize, nodded to herself and then said.
“This is enough theory. “If we test it a few times on animals, it will be safe to use.”
Ellie, who seemed not to be tired, left the hideout and returned some time later, catching several frogs that were wandering around the island.
Placing the frog on the table, Ellie waved the wand and tested it repeatedly for hours.
Meanwhile, Kane, who had woken up and returned home, found Ellie squeezing a frog floating in the air with a stick, and quietly approached her and whispered to her.
“Maybe your friend… Do you have a hobby of torturing frogs?”
I ignored the nonsense and answered that I should just eat the dinner I had left for Kane.
Perhaps because preparing a meal was a hassle, Kane ran into the kitchen with a happy face when I told him that I had prepared dinner.
After finishing his meal, Kane seemed to have regained his energy and went over to the closet again to study alchemy.
I wonder what kind of misunderstanding I had, and he patted me on the shoulder and smiled heartily, saying that there would be no friend as good as him.
After waiting for a long time, at dawn, Ellie finally seemed to be satisfied with her safety standards, releasing the frog outside and approaching me.

“I think this is enough.”
“So, you’re not tired? “There is no need to force yourself to do it today.”
“are you okay. My condition is also good. “Actually, I have a greater desire to try new magic as soon as possible.”
Then there is no need to delay. I answered with a shrug.
“Then let’s try it.”
Not knowing what would happen, I headed from the hideout to the vacant lot near the closet.
As I warmed up, Ellie explained what I was about to experience.
“I will stop your heart while sharing your life. There may be no pain, but as time goes by, you will feel more tired. “The longer you remain drowsy, the more dangerous it is, so when I give the signal, use Quantum Jump as quickly as possible.”
“okay. “I’m ready.”
As I stretched out my arms, Ellie took a deep breath and pointed her wand at me.
“I feel strange. “I don’t know if it’s good or bad.”
I also agreed with what Ellie said. This isn’t the first time Ellie has pointed her cane at me. I said it jokingly for no reason.
“Aren’t you excited?”
“Maybe that’s right?”
With a cool smile, Ellie waved her cane. A pure white light erupted from the tip of the wand and flew towards my chest.
At that moment, I felt as if something heavy was pressing down on my heart, and my fingertips went numb.
As if static electricity had been generated on my skin, I felt a tingling pain and a strange sense of being connected to Ellie.
Then Ellie waved the wand again, and suddenly I couldn’t feel anything.
The heartbeat that was ringing inside me disappeared. The heart stopped completely.
I felt as if I had completely lost all sense of my body. But even if my heart stopped, I could move.
“Now!”
At Ellie’s shout, I found one related to spears among the many Ross recorded on the terminal.
As I learned from Ross of Longing, I immediately assumed the lotus position and closed my eyes.
I raised my magical power, used it as I had learned, and sent my breath to the top of my head.
Then, imagining silence, I used the spear in that silence to pull in Ross’s terminal, which had reached the realm of transcendence.
At that moment, all kinds of things began to enter my head, along with the familiar illusion that heat was radiating from the top of my head.
I understand.
I realize.
The art of creativity,
The state that has been achieved.
Along with that, a strong will appeared in my mind like an irresistible memory.
Roel, who concentrated his magic on the holy sword and was ready to attack at any time, looked at me and said.
“You can never beat me, Ross.”
It feels like the pressure in the voice is weighing down my body.
“I know, I didn’t plan on winning from the beginning. but… .”
I aimed my spear at Roel without hesitation.
“But I have no intention of giving up.”
In an instant, all emotions are erased. Only the will for martial arts aims at the opponent.
Unlike Roel, who can raise enormous energy, I was in an infinitely static state.
But the moment Roel took a step, everything inside me exploded, drawing out energy and throwing out a spear.
Doesn’t fall behind against Roel. No, rather, he takes advantage of the spear as a weapon and launches a one-sided attack while avoiding Roel’s attack, which has the power to break everything.
Because Roel’s attack on the heart is set to be unwinnable, the spear blade bends at an impossible angle and fails several times.
But I never gave up.
And finally, the will for martial arts finally overcome the setting and pierced Roel’s heart. As if he couldn’t believe it, Roel opened his eyes wide and looked down at his body.
“… It’s my first time. “You never hurt me.”
The spear blade that pierced the heart was pushed out by the regenerating flesh. Roel raised her head and spoke with a bitter smile on her face.
“But I’m already immortal.”
The holy sword and spear clash. And with that, the memories fade from my mind.
In my fading memories, what Ross in the other world had in mind until the last moment takes root in my mind as well.
That’s right,
It was an indomitable will toward martial arts.
