I was excommunicated from the Holy Knights

44 – When I came to my senses, it was a needlessly flashy hell 7

Guided by a servant, I arrived at the door of the boudoir

Then, with some tension, I cautiously began to enter the door the servants had left open.

and right after that.

In my eyes, the first thing I saw was the figure of my father, the Earl of Thurn, sitting at a large table and a high table.

Then he began to notice the images of a middle-aged woman and a young woman sitting right next to him.

That moment..

-Druck!-

As soon as our eyes met, a middle-aged woman pushed the chair and got up.

Then she

Showing a stiff expression and gait

Slowly, as it were, it started approaching me.

and..

“… ”

“Baby..”

She was thrilled and grabbed my hand tightly.

As a result, I could easily recognize who this person in front of me was.

“..mother?”

“My sweetheart!”

Along with those words, ‘Mother’ hugs my body without hesitation.

I felt a little awkward at the same warm sensation, but on the other hand, I also thought that it wasn’t such a bad feeling.

A hug that feels like the boom of a mother who died in childhood from a previous life.

Although there were differences between then and now in many ways, nevertheless, as a son, I gently hugged ‘Mother’s body as it was, recalling the sensations of that time.

“Thank God.. Really.. Thank you very much..”

She expresses unfiltered joy as a mother who has recovered her child whom she thought was lost.

I felt a bit pricked by her appearance, but I soon shook off those feelings and stood there for a while in line with this atmosphere.

And after a while…

It seems that the lump in my heart has been relieved to some extent,

After slowly releasing me from her arms, my mother slowly touched my cheek and gave me a thrilling smile on her lips.

“You’ve really grown up a lot.. Just like your father said, you’ve become a clear ledger now.”

“..sorry. Anyway, I should have sent at least the news…”

“No, no. What does all that have to do with it now? You grew up wonderfully like this and came back. That fact alone is enough for this mother. Now, come over here and sit comfortably. There are so many things I want to hear from my son whom I haven’t seen in a long time.”

Although she must have already heard the rough story from her father, the mother seemed to have many things she wanted to share with her son whom she hadn’t seen in a long time.

Watching this, I sat down at the table where the tea and refreshments were placed, and at the same time, I secretly began to see a young woman looking at me with a hard expression on her face.

‘That person.. Judging by his age, he seems younger than me. Then, is that woman really Dust…?’

The Countess of Tourne in the original novel had three daughters.

All three of them were wizards with considerable skills, and at the same time, they played a large and small role in the Bohemia Army.

And.. the age you can guess with your eyes. Considering the appearance that has just entered the middle and late teens,. I am the youngest of the three she in front of me.

I could tell it was Dust Andreas.

‘I was expecting this to some extent, but as expected from the first impression, it seems quite harsh, right?’

Dust’s personality in the original work felt similar to the girl in front of me at this exact moment.

A style that is dissatisfied with everything and gets annoyed easily.

Although her magical talent was excellent, her personality did not impress the people around her, so even in the war, the other two did not..

Compared to her older sisters, she did not show much outstanding performance.

Keeping that fact in mind, I first looked at my ‘younger brother’ who was keeping silent with a not very good expression, and while watching us like that, my father opened his mouth with a smile on his lips.

“Come to think of it, the introduction is a bit late, I don’t know if you remember, but this kid is your younger brother Dust. You were only six years old when you left home, but now you have become such a lady.”

“I see… this child is…”

Dust, who is similar to me, has slightly reddish blonde hair and dark eyes, but his skin is as white as milk.

Looking at her, I said with a happy smile on my lips as an older brother.

“Hello Dust? long time no see.”

“… .”

She didn’t respond to my words, instead answering with a slight nod of her head.

In a way, it could be said to be a disrespectful attitude toward her brother, but I, who knew her original personality anyway, didn’t have any special feelings about it.

However, unlike me, it seemed that my parents, especially my mother, could not stand to see her attitude.

“Dust.. No matter what, my older brother came back after a long time, what is it? Say hello again straight away.”

“..hi.”

She responds in a short voice to her mother’s nagging, as if she really doesn’t want to do it.

Regarding this, my mother looked at me and said with a deep sigh.

“Ha.. I’m sorry. It’s probably because I don’t easily realize that my brother has returned.”

“hahahaha yes.. well.. I’m fine.”

Looking at my mother showing a little bit of apologetic feeling, I answered with a little pressure, and then carefully asked my father a question in order to change the atmosphere a little.

“But… it seems the other two are nowhere to be seen. May I know where they are?”

“Ah.. It seems like it will take a while for your two older sisters. You know, these days, the atmosphere around us is unusual, so the two of us have quite a lot of things to do. It will probably take a few days to see your face.”

“I see.. Well, sisters are busy enough.”

As much as I know roughly what my two ‘sisters’ are doing now through the original work, I agreed to this at once,

Then, sneakily, I began to examine the face of my ‘younger brother’ who had been staring at me from earlier.

‘I don’t think it’s because I smeared something on my face… this… is it that way?’

Dust continues to look at me with a dissatisfied expression.

In connection with this situation, there was something that suddenly came to mind.

It’s… a cliché that often appears in so-called last-minute dramas.

A scene in which the son or daughter of a conglomerate family burns a competitive spirit while feeling danger in areas such as the management rights of a company or inheritance from a brother who suddenly appears.

Of course, there might be a reason why this younger brother, Dust, is basically rough, but I personally put more weight on the idea that the story related to that side might be the cause.

Leaving behind my younger brother, who was giving me uncomfortable looks in many ways, I answered my mother’s questions, who asked me various things, just like my father.

“If you had lived in Milan, there must have been a lot of inconveniences. I heard that there are a lot of people over there who have a rough temper..”

“Well… it wasn’t like that. Of course, there are not very few people who are not, but there are quite a lot of kind people around me.”

That was the time when I was answering questions from my mother who had many questions about me in many ways while thinking about the current situation in my own way.

-Druck!-

“..!?”

“… ”

“..Dust!”

After a certain amount of time has passed, Dust gets up from his seat as if he can’t stay any longer. that

Right after that, she left the room as she chewed the words of Count Thurn calling her.

“… ha..”

“Really, oppa came back after a long time, and such a reaction…”

The parents let out a deep sigh at Dust’s attitude.

After all, the only thing she said after coming here was ‘Hello’.

Regarding her attitude, I decided not to worry too much about this issue, thinking that it would be difficult to get close to her.

This is because in the current situation, where there are big problems to be solved right away, there was no time to be interested in these small details.

*

“..hahahaha..”

After leaving the boudoir, the woman went straight into her room and shut the door tightly.

Dust Andreas leaned against the door as he tried to calm his still beating heart at this moment.

Contrary to his stiff expression in the boudoir, at this moment, Dust had a blush on his face and was at a loss for what to do.

At this moment, she recalled once again the reality that still felt like a dream, and without realizing it, an uncontrollable smile began to spill from the corner of her mouth.

‘..I’m back.. finally… He finally came back… Brother Santana…’
