“Is it this die or your older brother, who is trying really hard to hold back in consideration of you?”
Chi-Woo raised his eyebrows It wasn’t like he had failed to understand what his brother was saying
“Are you telling me to…?” Chi-Woo trailed off
“Choose,” Chi-Hyun confirmed his worries There was a short silence, and Chi-Woo was about to ask what the heck his brother was talking about but pursed his lips again Chi-Woo knew better than anyone else his brother’s personality; Chi-Hyun wasn’t the type to blabber nonsense Chi-Woo was presented with a difficult choice now, and his relationshi+p with his brother would change significantly depending on his decision Chi-Woo wasn’t so dense that he’d fail to realize this, but he needed to confirm it
“What will happen if I choose you?”
“We will continue to be brothers,” Chi-Hyun replied calo of this valuable ite to think of you as my brother” It was the response Chi-Woo had expected
“…And what if I choose the die?”
“Then it can’t be helped,” Chi-Hyun said cal to act however you like without any consideration ofto understand and care for you?” In other words, Chi-Woo’s ansould decide whether or not Chi-Hyun would continue to consider Chi-Woo his brother Chi-Woo closed his eyes and breathed deeply He had expected things to not be easy, but this was beyond his iination Chi-Woo felt his heart constrict further thetoo much?”
“Before you blame me, you should look back on your actions”
“It hasn’t even been that long since you told me it was fine if I didn’t consider you s
“But did that ever stopas your older brother?” Chi-Hyun’s forehead creased, and his voice beca space for you, and personally guided you in your training These are things I had never done for anyone—not even for Noel who had followed me for decades” Chi-Hyun continued, “Do I really have to spell out howspace while I went to the Godly territory for you to understand me?”
Chi-Woo fell at a loss for words Now that he thought about it, it was true Even after his brother left, the space created by Iht about how much it would’ve burdened his brother to maintain that space
“But if you still don’t think of me as your brother even after all that I did, take that die and go This instant” Chi-Hyun flicked his hand at the die Chi-Woo had even fewer things to say, but he gritted his teeth
“You are so childish,” Chi-Woo said, yet there was no point in trying to provoke his brother
“You should be grateful that I aback because I’m your brother?” His tone became harsh as he asked, “Hoould you respond if I weren’t?”
“Are you curious?” Unlike Chi-Woo, as boiling in anger, Chi-Hyun’s voice and gaze were icy cold The two brothers glared at each other for a bit
“…Never mind that” Chi-Hyun was the first to turn away “Just , it seems you don’t realize the stakes involved”
“Stakes?”
“I’m sure you are well aware of Noel’s condition”
Chi-Woo frowned at theabout this
“There are no threats to her life at this moment, but it’s difficult to knohether she will fully recover”
“The treato away in a day or two,” Chi-Hyun continued “Noel gave up everything, not just her life If we had left her be, she would have cruness, both her body and soul”
“…”
“Recovering Noel is a very difficult task It would take at least a couple of years… She ht have to live in her current state for the rest of her life”
Chi-Woo’s uessed the situation wasn’t favorable, but not this bad
“But,” Chi-Hyun then said, “I can do it”
“?”
“I would have to devote a considerable amount of time and power, but I’m confident it won’t takethis, Chi-Hyun tipped his jaw and slu, “But that’s only if you choose aped open “Why…” He was speechless hearing what came out of his brother’s mouth “If you can cure Noel, why—!”
“Whythat?”
Chi-Hyun cut Chi-Woo off “For me, effort and tiNoel, I can doone bit, Chi-Hyun said, “Thus, why must I invest myself and my resources solely on Noel?”
“…”
“And who knohat consequences would co so ritted his teeth so hard that they alanized the team of disorderly recruits And especially in a ti, Chi-Hyun’s existence was indispensable Still, how could his brother act like this…!
“So, if I take the die and leave, Noel is going to stay like that forever?” Chi-Woo’s voice tre, but his silence was enough of an answer
“I thought you weren’t going to forceme”
“The choice is up to you”
“Nonsense…!” Chi-Woo alue He needed to hold back He needed to endure…but he couldn’t
“Do you really have to go that far?” Chi-Woo lashed out in rage “Did I really do so ? Ah, yes, I didn’t listen to you and didn’t keep my proo so far?” Then Chi-Woo added, “I came here to see you, brother”
