I quickly grabbed Alex's hand, who was right next to me.
The pain must have been immense, as Brigette kept sending out shock waves.
The Eye of the Mirror - The Fountain of Purification
Alex recovered quickly and caught his breath.
“Don’t let go of my hand and follow me.”
“Uh, uh. Haa.”
Then I ran to Ryan, who was practically crawling on the floor in pain.
By then, Brigette was stamping her feet and shouting.
“Father, Father! Do you know what I just learned?”
She's reaching my father through the <Book of Transmission>, like a magpie.
I quickly touched Ryan's back.
The Eye of the Mirror - The Fountain of Purification
"Are you okay?"
“Ugh, F**k!”
Ryan suddenly raised his head.
And then he looked back at me.
A quick glance at the fountain of purification, realizing that the shockwave could be offset.
“Ryan, that incompetent...!”
And then he turned his head again, saw Brigette opening her mouth, and shouted.
"Wrap it up before Father turns off the blessing! Back when we were at the clothing store!"
What? When you're in the dressing room?
I was just trying to wrap it up when I first arrived in the capital, so I could hide Merchen...
'Let's just do as we're told!'
Because every second counts.
The Eye of the Mirror - Poetry of Retrograde
Again, the costume room of the capital.
Ryan, who was standing in front of the mirror, ran towards me as if he were flying.
“Let’s eat!”
“Whoa, holy crap! What the hell was that all of a sudden?!”
The pain must have been immense, as Brigette kept sending out shock waves.

Again, the costume room of the capital.
Ryan, who was standing in front of the mirror, ran towards me as if he were flying.
“Let’s eat!”
“Whoa, holy crap! What the hell was that all of a sudden?!”
Revan, who was next to me, was startled.
“Are you hungry?”
Kali asked Ryan.
I frowned, having heard Ryan's sudden 'let's eat' comment all by myself.
"What are you eating? Did I tell you to take just a little bit so you could eat that?"
“It’s not that great.”
The next words were whispered by pulling Ryan's ear.
"It's limited to those with this ability. It can only be used on Dad and Alex."
The Book of Transmission.
Can transmit one's voice from a distance, but only to those with this ability.
In fact, I thought there would be a chance to obtain the other brothers' abilities in some way, but only one.
I thought I would never be able to obtain Brigette's powers.
Because to gain Brigette's power, she must convey her voice to me at least once.
But would that ever happen?
Why would Brigette, who has no reason to meet me and even thinks I'm incompetent, send me telepathy?
But just a little while ago... we confirmed that Brigette, who was threatened, had fired a shockwave at us.
So, I can try to obtain the <Book of Sound>, but even if I obtain it, it is not a very useful blessing.
It's not even a power that allows two-way communication.
"Even if it's only for us, where's that? No, there's the Third Prince too! He can whisper his love to you anytime, anywhere."
Ryan whispered excitedly.
"What's that? No need to whisper! Just to get one useless Bless..."
It came in with the sound of a bell.
“Who, sister!”
This time it's Alex.
It was his first time doing a companion regression, and he seemed to have come running to us first, his eyes wide open in surprise.
“Hey, have you bought all the clothes?”
Then the Prince appears.
That beauty is trouble, trouble...
Ryan continued to whisper. Alex, who had come next to us, trembled in surprise.
I told Alex first.
"Surprised? I'll explain slowly. Just wait a moment."
And then I looked back at Ryan.
“So, are you saying we should create the same situation as before?”
"Uh. I'll take care of everything. Alex, don't follow me this time. Revan and Max stay nearby and wait."
"Yes, yes!"
Alex, still confused, followed Ryan's words.
“Wait a minute. We don’t have time to go and call more mercenaries right now...”
Many mercenaries came to the capital with us, but the only ones accompanying us as our escorts right now are Kali and Max.
"Kali! Can you take on ten noble family soldiers alongside me?"
When Ryan asked, Kali frowned.
“You call that talking?”
“Yes, good!”
Oh, is this right...
We left the costume shop in a hurry again, and as if they had been waiting, two of Brigitte's knights approached Merchen.
"Excuse me."
Ryan chuckled sinisterly from behind while hugging me.
***
Brigitte Wassenberg.
If I had to be picky, I feel the least sorry for her among my siblings.
It's not like I didn't have any trouble with Brigette, but compared to my other siblings who had annoying Blessings, she was easy to deal with.
Brigette's Blessing has no real use other than to help with quick communication between the siblings.
So she was able to enjoy her life and live freely.
But she didn't play at all.
She was the flower of the most active family in the aristocratic social circle.
She only occasionally participated in minor misdeeds, such as helping the second son, Elliot, by giving invitations to secret auctions to nobles.
She was someone who was serious about enjoying her own life, so we didn't really have any conflicts.
The most important thing to Brigitte is her own glamorous life.
Money, status, power, entertainment, and pretty boys...
If she wanted something, she would do anything to get it, and she was able to get it.
If there was a single jewel in the capital, she would pay several times the price to get it for herself...
If there was a man she liked, she would fight for him and have fun with him, regardless of whether he was married or a commoner.
Well, her values and private life were not my area to touch, so I had no interest in them.
Anyway...
Brigette was the most docile type of person when it came to getting her wants met, and so she followed her father and brothers' orders faithfully.
All the wealth and power that Brigette possessed were created by her father and brothers.
“Isn’t it pretty, sis?”
“Oh my gosh, you’re crazy! How did you get this? You little punk!”
So I mistakenly assumed that Brigette was the type to be easily persuaded.
She couldn't harass me openly with her talents, but having to report my movements to my brothers at every moment was quite stressful...
'Let's become friends and make them take my side.'
I wanted to buy the favor of the quick-witted Brigitte.
Then it will be much easier to move around.
“I worked hard to get it for you, sister. It cost a million gold.”
“Thank you, it’s so pretty.”
Because she was crazy about jewelry, I showered her with gifts, and because she was sensitive to trends, I even went to the trouble of hiring foreign designers to make her dresses.
Just when I thought I had her all to myself, trying to please her from start to finish.
“Today, I have a gift for our Bunny!”
"Really?"
Easy, easy. Today, I can start subtly asking her to stop spying on me!
...the day I thought that.
Brigette took me to a scenic villa and showed me her 'gift'.
“Whoa!”
I was shocked to see the men there, dressed in scantily clad clothes.
Brigitte, who entered leisurely between them, sat with her legs crossed proudly like a queen and smiled at me.
"I'll tell you something good. You don't know much about men, so you think he's the only one in the world. Let's have fun today and come to our senses."
Yes.
I just realized it then, like an idiot.
It wasn't just me working.
I'm trying to gain Brigitte's favor.
And Brigitte, to change me, who only knows Nike as a man.
We were trying hard to persuade each other.
'Hey, none of them are easy.'
That day, as I ran away, step by step, saving me, this was the truth I clearly realized.
***
“Leave him and go.”
Beautiful, well-manicured nails.
Brigitte points to Merchen with her index finger and says.
Not much has changed.
Unlike before, when the whole family had followed along, there was only Merchen, Klai, Ryan, and me.
Wow...
"That can't be right, can it? The reason I came here is... because I was afraid that if I declined your invitation, you'd continue to harass my brother-in-law. Let's just go our separate ways quietly."
...the fact that Ryan was holding me in his arms like he was holding his six-year-old daughter?
You have to stick with me to offset the shockwave that Brigitte will soon shoot at the Fountain of Purification.
I asked if it would be hard because it was heavy, but Ryan insisted on lifting me up and holding my hand, saying that I would be suspicious if I held his hand.
"Drag it out."
Two knights approached us.
I hugged Ryan's neck tightly.
The lion of monstrous strength was holding a thirteen-year-old girl in one arm...
“Ah!”
Break the arm of the one who approaches first, and he's out!
He kicks the thigh of the next guy hard with his foot, and he's out again!
“Wh, what!”
Brigitte was surprised.
Ryan didn't need to worry about the other knights left behind, as Kali would take care of them, and he approached her menacingly.
“Oh, don’t come!”
Embarrassed, Brigitte flinched again.
The Book of Transmission
Bless exploded.
The Eye of the Mirror - The Fountain of Purification
At the same time, it is natural that she secretly offset the shock wave.
Nothing happened, and that was it.
Because we are incompetent.
“Hey, hey. Why are you so nervous? Do you think I would hit my little sister?”
“What are they doing?!”
Brigitte trembled and shouted at the rest of the knights who were struggling against Kali.
Ryan pursed his lips as if trying to suppress a laugh at the sight.
And then...
Then he whispers very quietly and secretly in my ear.
“…Hmm, sweet as honey?”
Yeah, the Book of Sound...
Sweet as honey...
