CH 125

“Why? Because… the Dark Guild is a bad organization and a threat to… peace, and I’m trying to defeat them…”

I managed to squeeze out my words as best I could.

It was my idea of heresy at play here, and my moral system that stated the Dark Guild as evil feels like it’s about to collapse.

“Haaaa…”

Seeing me like this, my brother sighs deeply with a look of deep disappointment, as if he is dealing with a student who is not doing well.

“Karendoll… didn’t I tell you that the Dark Guild is necessary for the peace of this world?”

“No… that… can’t be… You didn’t say that…”

“Right? I surely told Karendoll. Even though you had a great talent for magic, your intellect wasn’t that good. In that case, I don’t blame you.”

When my brother heard my reply, he started speaking, satisfied, looking down on me.

He was not the brother I knew, who had a strong sense of justice, who smiled kindly at me. He was now a different person who said a great evil is necessary, looking down at me.

Whose brother is this brother in front of me?

“I can’t let you leave and reveal that I have given my sword to the Dark Guild Master, even if you are my sister. If you want to resent me, resent yourself for being unable to control your desire to defeat evil out of a futile sense of justice and for coming to a place where you shouldn’t be.”

And I heard my brother say that to me, his sister.

His words show no hesitation, thinking it is natural for him to kill me.

Oh, the big brother I knew is no longer in this world…

I’m not stupid enough to realize what that drug is now.

That’s why I knew that my brother was really going to kill me from now on.

I don’t care anymore.

The elder brother who drank that medicine would make five ice flowers bloom at once.

No matter how I try to struggle, there’s no way I can beat my brother in the state I’m in now, given he had the medicine.

If that’s the case… I’ll at least step aside so my brother wouldn’t be troubled.

But still… I don’t want to die.

“Someone… Please save me…!”

I wonder who I requested. Maybe it was God or someone else. After all, I had to rely on others to help me in the end, which I thought was very much like me. I closed my eyelids and waited for my brother’s attack to hit me, but there was no sign of it, so I opened my eyes to see what was happening. There was a man wearing black military-style clothes and a black mask.

“Ah, that’s dangerous. Do you want to die that badly?”

“Ha, hue? Eh? W-why…?”
