I Became the Younger Brother of the Female Protagonist in the Novel

No matter how much he is said to be a black magician of the 6th circle, traces of mana hidden by special (S) class magic tools will not be easily found.

Despite knowing that, I gulped nervously.

“… … I can’t feel the energy of mana. Rather, I heard it from Baroness Terben. At least until the 2nd and 3rd grade, I can keep the A grade in the written test.”

Well, I’m currently learning the 5th grade course… … It seems that Miss Sharon paid a lot of attention.

I nodded once as I met his eyes.

“How are you going to do the practical test?”

“… … I learned swordsmanship in the library of the 2nd annex. I think at least an E grade in the entrance exam is possible.”

“Tsk… … . useless guy.”

Despite Grans’ criticism, I remained silent.

It was really rare to receive an E grade among nobles. Most of the nobles inherited the blessing of mana according to their lineage.

Because of this, even if they wanted to lack talent, most of the children of nobles were able to get up to a C grade.

Well, anyway… … .

“Starting today, I will send a knight to the 2nd annex. Learn swordsmanship from him.”

“… … All right.”

“And you must get an A on the written exam. Don’t disgrace Spay-One’s name.”

“Yes, I will keep that in mind.”

I bowed deeply.

And at Grans’ one word to go out, I quickly got out of the room.

Servan, who was waiting in front of the house, bowed his head to me once, and then went into the house.

After glancing at Servan’s back, I walked down the hallway and left the main building.

“Tsk… … . It’s only gorgeous on the outside, but it’s a really stuffy place.”

As I clicked my tongue, I walked to the second annex through the back garden.

* * *

Kayneth H Spayone who went to the main building.

There was a small commotion in the main building from the people who saw him.

A beautiful boy with black hair and black eyes, as beautiful as a doll.

Confirming right in front of their eyes that the rumors of ugliness were false rumors, the maids secretly went in and out of the main building’s patronage under the pretext of work, approaching the vicinity of the second annex.

And the maids staring at Kayneth while he was jogging.

Thanks to this, maids from the main building were occasionally seen around the second annex, which was rarely visited.

Meanwhile, Grans, facing Kayneth, closed her eyes and leaned against the back of the chair.

Then, for a moment, I tapped the papers with a quill.

“… … Something’s going on.”

When he heard about Kayneth from his second wife, Phyllis, he put on a slightly suspicious expression.

Well, considering only the outward appearance, there shouldn’t be any problem if I make her hang out with the ladies who will inherit the title of count or higher.

I couldn’t hope for marriage with them, but I could expect that kind of network to be formed.

Phyllis said she sensed mana from Kayneth, but… … .

“… … I didn’t feel the mana.”

It wasn’t particularly strange.

However, the calm attitude of Kaynes, who is only 12 years old. Despite his own criticism, the child did not budge.

Grans, who had to feel alienated by the appearance of a boy who did not twitch his eyebrows, touched his chin and immediately decided to send one of the most competent knights of the Spey One family to the second annex.

and… … At the direction of Grans, the first butler, Servan, immediately selected the person in charge of Kayneth’s swordsmanship training.

Alberto, who currently belongs to the 1st Knights of the Spey One family.

The young man with brown hair, now in his 30s, scratched the side of his head and moved to the second annex under the order of the head of household, Grans.

“Why should I… … . Well, wouldn’t it be bad to miss training? No, taking care of children might be more troublesome… … .”

Having risen to the rank of a senior expert at a young age, he gazed intently at the building of the second annex building through the sponsorship of the main building with a carefree appearance.

Speyone’s incompetent, Kayneth H Speyone.

“What the hell are you supposed to teach a kid with no mana… … .”

Alberto let out a small sigh and knocked on the front door of the second annex with his fist.

Then the young maid who met him escorted him to the first room, and Alberto, who was guided there, sat on the sofa in the first room and crossed his legs while eating refreshments.

“Kiya~ It’s also the Spey-One family. It’s an annex, but why is it so huge?”

Alberto rested in a comfortable position with his head tilted back for 10 minutes.

Moments later, when the door to the guest room opened, he put down his crossed legs and immediately turned his head toward the door.

rattle.

“You are Alberto. I have already received the message.”

“ah… … .”

As soon as he saw Kanes, his eyes widened.

As the maids say, a beautiful boy who doesn’t really look like a being of this world.

Admiration burst out at the boy’s good looks, which even he himself, a man, had no choice but to admit.

but… … .

‘Your body looks a little weak. If I want to learn swordsmanship, I need to improve my stamina first.’

Episode 27

27. Central Academy (1)

After visually examining Kayneth’s body, Alberto began to envision a training schedule in his mind.

“First of all, we should start with training to develop physical strength. Do you usually exercise often?”

“Hmm, I jog for about 30 minutes a day, and I am training my swordsmanship for about an hour on my own.”

“… … Can I check what kind of swordsmanship it is?”

At Alberto’s question, Kayneth nodded.

The two confronted each other holding wooden swords in the backyard of the second annex.

Keynes met Alberto, who is 183 cm tall.

Having grown to 155cm this year, he took a deep breath and kicked the ground at the same time as Alberto said, ‘Come.’

Dig!

“Hmm?”

Alberto’s eyes widened at the movement of Kayneth, who looked quite nimble. Of course, it’s just that he’s agile at the level of a child.

grasp! Papababak!

“This… … .”

Obviously, the power and speed were much slower than her own. However, starting with the basic posture, Alberto could not help but admire the skills that followed.

‘Is this really self-taught swordsmanship?’

It felt like dealing with a seasoned mercenary.

Alberto, who had a surprised expression on his face, had to break into a cold sweat as Kayneth’s sword attack was getting faster and faster.

And, thinking of dealing with a child, I immediately corrected the fact that I went to Dalian with a light heart.

Wedge love!

Kayneth swung his wooden sword obliquely.

Alberto laughed and deflected Kayneth’s wooden sword.

grasp-!

“Keugh… … .”

The wooden sword that flew from Kayneth’s right hand stuck to the ground.

Did Alberto realize that he had gone too far? I hurriedly ran towards Kayneth, who backed away.

“Gwa, are you okay?!”

Grabbing his right hand, Kayneth smiled bitterly and nodded.

“… … Yes, that’s fine.”

“Whoa… … .”

Alberto, who was worried about injuring Keynes. He rubbed his chest with a small relief.

“First of all, the basic posture was properly held. I don’t know what else to say other than that it’s great on the technical side as well. Of course, the academy sees mana as the top priority, so I think E is the best grade when you do well in the practical evaluation.”

“… … is that so.”

Kayneth let out a deep sigh and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve.

Alberto, looking at the scene, continued to speak.

“I will only supplement the physical part, and I will teach you the swordsmanship I have learned. The academy says that the actual evaluation in the dungeon is reflected in the practical score every year. Therefore, it will be possible to get a D grade in practical skills while attending school. Moreover, it is conducted as a group test, so if you are lucky, it is not impossible to get a C grade thanks to the members of the group.”

Kayneth couldn’t help but laugh bitterly at Alberto’s appearance that he had to interact with talented students.

But that would be a harsh yet cold reality.

“If you get an A in the written test and a D or C in the practical test, you will be able to attend class C until graduation.”

“… … okay.”

Keynes nodded bitterly as if to accept the cold reality.

Then… … .

“I wish you well in the future.”

“It’s okay if you don’t use honorifics with me. and… … I really wish you well.”

Alberto had to drastically change his impression of Keynes.

Despite his outward appearance, he possessed the modesty of a nobleman and showed an excellent aspect in swordsmanship.

Of course, not having mana would be fatal.

However, if only the physical conditions were met, it would surely be possible to subjugate D-C rank monsters even in the actual battle evaluation.

“Today, I will inform you of the upcoming training schedule. And tomorrow at 10 am, I will visit the second annex again.”

“Yes, I understand.”

* * *

Alberto skipped the training of the knights and started going back and forth between the dormitory and the second annex. He couldn’t help but be astonished at Keynes’ amazing growth.

‘It’s just a pity that there is no mana.’

Alberto subtly let go of the killing, and Keynes felt the killing and quickly responded.

Even in the sensuous part that is unique to a prosecutor, Keynes showed an outstanding figure.

‘If only I had received the blessing of mana, I would have become a great swordsman.’

It was Alberto who really felt sorry for Keynes’ talent.

Grans, who received reports about Keynes regularly every month, nodded her head once with an expressionless expression, but did not show any other reaction.

Unless you have mana, no matter how talented you are, there will be limits.

Grans once again left Keynes unattended.

and… … .

“Um, did you really say that child didn’t have mana?”

“Yes that’s right. It is said that the head of the household confirmed it with his own two eyes.”

“… … No way.”

Phyllis narrowed her brows at the maid’s report and lowered her head.

If Kayneth had received the blessing of Mana, he planned to attract his retainers and make him the next Earl of Spay-Won.

Even if he killed his eldest son, Eren.

However, when Kayneth’s incompetence was confirmed once more, Phyllis slumped back on the bed, closing her eyes tightly.

“… … I was stupid for expecting that child.”

With this, the Phillies had no choice but to shrink again.

At least she should take comfort in the fact that Sophia is the next Marquess of Welford.

A sigh of disappointment filled Phyllis’ bedroom at that moment.

Kayneth’s sword began to emanate blue energy.

“this… … . Is it called swordsmanship?”

As the training with Alberto and the sword master Pale Lord’s sword techniques gradually began to adapt to his body, he became even more proficient in the way he moved mana in his body.

and… … Just like that, a year passed in an instant.

* * *

“Hmm, this is an island.”

The island called the heart of the Labadian Empire, Ailed.

I finally got out of Karvan City. To take the entrance exam for the academy.

The carriage with the Spey One’s crest on it crossed the streets of the island and entered the academy, and I jumped out of the carriage wearing a black school uniform.

Taat.

“here… … .”

A murmur was heard all around.

And countless eyes were on me, was it because the coat of arms of the Spey One family was famous?

“Well, since the merchants also use the Spey One family’s coat of arms… … .”

There’s nothing strange about being famous.

As I was looking around, the coachman poked his head out.

“Then, I will go back first. If a dormitory is assigned later, the family will send the maids.”

“Yes, good job.”

The carriage departed for the front gate of the academy, through which it had just passed.

“Hmm… … .”

The grounds of the Imperial Central Academy were truly enormous.

A dormitory that is discriminated against for each class. And it is said that there are a total of 60 5-story dormitory buildings.

It consists of 3 A class dormitories, 5 B class dormitories, 7 C class dormitories, 10 D class dormitories, 15 E class dormitories, and 20 F class dormitories, forming an apartment complex.

however… … .

“The dormitory facilities and the size of the bedrooms are different for each class. It’s a really rubbish story.”

Class A dormitory had a clean environment and good facilities. And around the building, there is a separate garden exclusively for Class A students.

The bedrooms in the dormitory are about 15 pyeong. It boasted a fairly large scale to use alone.
