Volume 1 Chapter 2 (1/2)

Take Care of Yourself, Oniisama!

Seeing the boy chant the spell for fireball over and over again repeatedly, practicing by himself, the maid shoved him aside hatefully

Being an unquestionable h ability that allowed her to work here, the boy was nothing but a subject of envy

It had already been two years since the head of the household brought hins of awakening to fire ic

Although he possessed the blood of the head as said to be the greatest in history, the boy hasn't inherited even an ounce of his power and only invoked frustration

His talent was inferior to everyone else, and yet he was allowed to live in the main house which elicited her jealousy

Hiic under such an optimal environment only furthered her jealousy

But, above all else―――hireater power than everyone else was the breaking point

Thus, she treated the boy roughly

However, there was no one in this mansion that would condemn her for such behavior

”Origa-saet lost, Gilford-sama”

The boy who had fallen onto his backside looked up sluggishly, had a blank expression on his face likely due to fatigue

―――It was a state of exhaustion from overuse of mana

Because he kept pouring power into a spell that wouldn't activate, his mana had likely been depleted

As for the young lady herself, she azed at her step-brother with her calh

”You're an eyesore, onii-saht even be able to use a bit of ic”

She pointed outside theexpressionlessly, as thunder crackled about and torrents of raindrops pounded the ground

She was his younger sister, but it was an order froarded as the next head

Being an incompetent brother, he was unable to refuse, and theto the courtyard with downcast eyes

Uaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! I'm sorry, so sorry, Gil-sama!

I am truly very sorry He's still only 10 years-old, so he'll definitely catch a cold being outside in such a heavy storm

But I proless

Coic is a directIf it's fire then handle fire everyday, if it's wind then climb up a mountain and spend a day in the wind, if it's earth then touch the soil in a cave

By doing so, one can gradually increase their affinity with the ic

I also spend several hours ofthe barrier around the house burning to increase my own affinity

However, Gil-sama's aptitude is for water, while the Rujil House is a clan of fire es

There aren't any natural waterfalls or lakes in the premises, so it's an environ

That aside, although there are individual difference, since they are born into this fire clan, everyone definitely has an aptitude for fire

Thus, no one would even consider that Gil-sama was only compatible with the water attribute

In our clan as long as one held even the slightest bit of aptitude for fire ic, all their other aptitudes would be sealed in order to nurture and improve their fire attribute bit by bit but……

The Rujilat the cost of all others is actually the factor inhibiting Gil-saic

In that case, one ht think why not just explain Gil-sama's aptitude and have him immediately leave the household instead?

That would be because my previous life's common sense doesn't apply here

If I just outright announced this to everyone, Gil-sa the clan and executed as an imposter

……Well, what to say, it's that sort of typical harsh world depicted in light novels

Therefore, I must nurture and hide Gil-sa Rujil House's next head as quickly as possible and free Gil-sama

At this rate his life will be in real danger!

Furtherht now!

There's no other choice but to force him to touch it!

……But, I really am very sorry

”Keika, tea――”

Feeling depressed, I shook h that nearly leaked out and instead asked the maid for tea

Seeing theat an annoying bug made me quite anxious

Ah, this was a pattern in the light novel too

Locking the door to the courtyard and leaving hih Gil-sama had collapsed

What happened afterwards was truly terrible

Hahhー, it's such a rare opportunity for Gil-sama to train, but in his current exhausted state he won't be able to last for long

”Yes, Origa-sama, I will prepare it immediately”

“……Also please bring onii-sarounds before dinner, I will be instructing him”

With this, he should be taken in from the rain after two hours or so

After that I will have to do so that can only be described as abuse but since I can hold back, it is at least better than the situation in the light novel where he wasn’t given medicine even if he catches a cold Probably…

I caught a gli the word ”instructing” and leaked a tiny sigh

I know that Gil-sah it’s the world in the light novel hu!

After finishi+ng afternoon training, I was notified by thewith me for the first time in quite a while

Usually, we only ever reetings

What kind of whiedroom, but there was yet another surprise, Gil-sama was also seated at the table

Having Gil-sa coht as dishes were placed onto the table one by one

Perhaps because he usually wasn't given such luxurious food, Gil-sama was overly-conscious about his manners and didn't really touch the food

Feeling that I should serve as an exaan to slowly eat

Father smiled pleasantly as he looked at lass of wine in his hand wordlessly
