The Hero’s Brother Is Bound To Be Depressed

37 – Permeate

The feel of the sand under her shoes and the unique scent of the sea melted Luna into the atmosphere after a long time.

Seeing the emerald-like wide beach and her friends playing in the water, Luna involuntarily smiled.

All of this was unfamiliar.

There is a beautiful island beyond her closet like in a fairy tale, and club activities with friends every day.

I was even more happy because it was unfamiliar.

When Luna was little, every time she couldn’t go to bed because of the dreary terror the night gave her. Luna’s mother lay next to her and told her stories until she fell asleep.

Among them, Luna’s favorite story was the story of her Luna’s mother meeting her father at Transcendence Academy before her marriage.

‘Miracle comes to her dreamer. Transcendence Academy is such a place.’

A dream grew in young Luna’s heart at the kind touch of her mother who stroked her hair with her warm smile.

After her horse riding accident injured her head and disabled her left side. It’s hard for Luna, who has been confined to her room and suffering from depression, but she is able to take one step forward.

It was because she couldn’t give up her dream when she was young.

After several years of hard work, her left hand, which had been hardened, was able to stretch out with difficulty, and even with her unusual gait, which staggered like a duck due to her stiff left foot, Luna continued her dream of entering the academy. I made it.

She entered Transcendence Academy, but her miracle did not come easily.

Luna suffered from depression and her personality became introverted. She hadn’t made friends with her in years, and felt inferior to her because of her body’s discomfort.

Because of that, it was difficult to approach someone first, and it was difficult to even continue the conversation.

It wasn’t that there weren’t people who approached her first, but she felt that she felt frustrated with Luna or that her shyness was putting pressure on her. After a few conversations, Luna was alone as she always was.

As a result, it became Luna’s day to go to her library to spend time naturally after her class.

But just as Luna’s mother said, the miracle that Luna dreamed of as a child came to her.

She

Made her friends, and she joined a club. She had someone to talk to every day, and she didn’t have to go to the library to kill her time.

Luna looked out of the corner of her eye at her Ross, who was walking in her own small stride without speaking.

Her bangs, which grew to cover her eyes, made her gloomy look even darker, but she knew that from the first time they met Luna, how warm-eyed Ross was.

Unlike others, Ross didn’t force himself to say anything to break the silence. Just, she had a faint smile on her face. As always, she just walks with herself and her stride.

Blonde hair, shining bright in the sun, swayed in the sea breeze. Because of that, her frustrated-looking bangs fell back, revealing Ross’s face.

Unlike Ross’ older brother, who is famous among first-year students for his scion-like appearance, Ross wasn’t strictly handsome.

He didn’t have a high nose like his older brother, nor did he have charming eyes like a wolf’s.

Still, Luna couldn’t take her eyes off Ross’s face for some reason.

I don’t know if Ross will remember, but when he bumped his shoulder in the library. She was able to see in Ross the dark melancholy that she had seen in her mirror as a child.

She

She wanted to help, but her shy personality prevented her from approaching. No, on the contrary, Ross approached Luna.

When I met Ross again, the deep melancholy I had seen in her first meeting had disappeared from her face. At first, she was curious about the change, and during practice, Luna unknowingly drew her attention to Ross.

For some reason, Luna was getting more and more concerned about solving her problems on her own, and creating a faint smile every time she met her gaze.

She

Every time she saw Ross, she wanted to hide her left hand, and whenever she felt that way, she resented her uncontrollable left hand.

“Good.”

A word that came out of Ross’s mouth. Luna became so dumb she forgot how to stop her steps and breathe.

As she moved her steps and looked up at the sky without saying a word, she realized that her Luna was not by her side. Ross stopped her steps and turned her gaze to Luna.

They met each other’s eyes. Again, an unknown emotion disturbed Luna’s heart. She couldn’t tell if it was because of the beautiful island or because of the eyes like the blue sea looking at her.

She doesn’t say anything, with her pale smile on her face. Luna, alerted to Ross’s gaze at her, approaches her.

Ross brought her face close enough that he could feel his breath.

As if observing her expression, Luna’s face turned red and her heart beat wildly at the gaze I felt on her face.

“Shall we take a break?”

At Ross’s sudden words, Luna realized that she was saying this out of consideration for herself who was uncomfortable with her body.

“Is that so?”

With that answer, Ross took out a towel from the storage room and spread it on the sandy beach.

The area of the towel was small, so Luna and Ross sat with their shoulders together and silently watched the regular waves.

“Isn’t it like a dream?”

Looking up at the sky dyed pink, Ross said that in a slightly sentimental voice.

Feeling the warmth from our shoulder blades penetrating into my heart. Luna answered in a small voice that Ross couldn’t hear.

“It’s like a miracle.”

***

The next day. After class, Professor Leora came over and handed her a pass.

Professor Leora looked at me as if she had something to say, sighed, told me to follow her rules, and walked away.

Leaving behind the members who were ready to enjoy today and said they would swim, I quickly finished eating at the restaurant and went out to the streets of the capital.

In order to get information about stone thorn disease, I had to use the information guild.

Most information guilds are operated openly, like a secret agency, but the place I went to was the secretly operated information guild ‘Modest’ created by the best assassin group in the world.

Because it was operated in secret, only high-ranking nobles and people with positions were the only customers who used it that much, and even Bella was a secret customer here.

Bella, who became her emperor because of her thorough confidentiality and certain information, tried to keep this place under her, but Modist, who found out in advance, disappeared from her capital.

After purchasing a mask and a cape to cover the face at a nearby store and putting them on, I headed to a bar marked ‘Hover’s Beer House’.

As I opened the door and entered, the owner looked at me with a sad expression.

“One cold potion.”

The way to connect with Modist was in the novel, so I just had to follow it.

“Hey, where’s the madman looking for potions in a bar? Wake up and go to the potion shop.”

The owner beckoned her back door with a bewildered face. It was such an astonished face, and she was almost fooled for a moment.

As she exited through her back door and entered an alley, she saw an old potion shop.

Open the door of the potion shop and enter. The owner, who had been dozing off, raised her head and looked at me.

“Do you like hot honey beers?”

At my words, the owner silently pointed to the back door. I opened the door and entered a small room.

I sat at an empty table and muttered something to myself.

“The moon has risen deliciously.”

After that, the wall flipped over as if she had waited, and a woman wearing a cat mask greeted her.

“Hello. Sir. Thank you for visiting our modist.”

As soon as the woman sat at the empty table across from me, she immediately got to the point.

“Sales and purchases. What are you going to do?”

You don’t have to be polite. Most of the customers who use this place are only those who are familiar with wearing shorts.

“Both.”

Let’s answer that immediately. The woman nodded her head and explained.

“The value of information is determined by the grade we set. Do you understand?”

“Yes.”

To me, who can read the set of novels at any time. Information guilds could be a useful source of money.

“I will proceed with sales first.”

At the woman’s words, I recalled the things I had organized in my head beforehand.

I thought of taking this opportunity to deal with things that were not helpful and bothersome.

Even if it disappears now, we have selected things that will not have a major impact on the future and will not cause any damage.

“The recent kidnapping in a village near the capital was committed by Prince Six.”

The woman who wrote down my words on a piece of paper asked.

“Is there evidence?”

“Every night, a sacrifice ceremony is taking place in the basement of the villa owned by Prince Six on the outskirts of the capital.”

If there was no evidence, no matter how true what I said. You will only get the value of a simple rumor. I’m going to hit the price saying that it was the information guild that proved it to be true.

However, if you say a certain place or time like now, it could be evidence.

In fact, even now, Prince 6 was seduced by the devil’s follower in his desire to become emperor, and was performing a sacrifice ceremony to summon the officers of the devil’s army by sacrificing the hearts of kidnapped children every day.

Prince Six, who enjoys abusing, raping, and harassing the children he kidnapped and tearing out their hearts, was destined to have his head cut off at the hands of an angry Roel a year later.

He wasn’t worth keeping alive for even a year.

“After confirming the information, the price will be set. What information would you like to purchase?”

“I want to get information about the stone thorn disease that the green mage master is researching and the green mage master.”

A year later, the stone thorn disease that Roel was going to solve was actually Bella’s work.

After half a year. All over the continent, stone prickly plants suddenly grow, and as a result, stone prickly disease spreads like an epidemic.

Seeing family and friends slowly turning to stone, the empire fell into fear. Bella searches for a cure for her stone thorn disease, but she finds out that the green mage lord has her cure, and she makes a deal.

Naturally, in exchange for making Roel find a cure for stone thorn disease, the green mage tower will receive enormous royal support.

As Bella’s plan, Roel became a ‘hero’ praised by everyone.

“Well, when the pricing of the sold information is done, then let’s do the calculations.”

I nodded at the woman’s words and asked.

“How long will it take?”

At that, laughter came from behind the woman’s mask.

“No way. Three days is enough.”

“Then, come back on the weekend.”

The nodding woman ran out of the store behind her.

After making sure that no one was following me towards the corner of the alley, I put the cloak and mask into the space storage.

Satisfied that he had taken a step forward in finding a cure for stone thorn disease, he bought some snacks and returned to the academy.
