I Need Someone to Stop My Older Brothers - Chapter 3

“The fact that, there’s already someone who wants to take this girl. He promised me a lot of money. But if that old man paid more, the story would be different ·······.”

“It’s just business,and I’m her stepfather!!
“He, he, he, he, he, he, he, he …….”

“Shut up!!Because I don’t want to hear anything from your dirty mouth.”

The man, who covered his stepfather’s mouth in a sad voice, looked at the girl again.

“You haven’t answered yet, Are you Dana?”

It was a different way of speaking than when he retorted at my stepfather.

He used honorifics and his tone was polite. The shoulders of the girl, who had been curled up by the treatment of the glorious noble lady, shrank even more.

“Yes, I’m Dana.”

“Your father’s name is Linte, and your mother’s name is Cali, right?”

The girl opened her eyes wide in surprise as her parents’ names came out of the man’s mouth.

“How did you know that?”

“Of course I know. I’ve been looking for you hard.”

“You were looking for me..? Why?”

‘That·······’

The cold man’s face gave me a faint smile..
Then the icy impression softened a little and the girl opened her mouth unknowingly.

“Purple eyes”

‘What?’ ‘It’s not a color that anyone can have.’ The girl also knew that purple eyes were unique. None of the people living in this village or the inn guests passing by this village had this color.
Only her late father had the same color as her.

“But I’ve been like this since the beginning.”

“I suppose so. Because you’re Prince Asinov’s granddaughter.”

“Granddaughter of Prince Asinov?”

Dana, who lived in a rural corner, had heard Ashinov’s name. It was through the mouths of mercenaries wandering throughout the Empire. They call Asihhnov the “monsters.”

The mercenaries, who boasted of their strength, cringed their shoulders when they said Asinov’s name.

The girl still remembered the fear in their eyes. What a great being feared by mercenaries who seem strong and scary to me?

“I think you’re mistaken. I’m just Dana. I’m just a country girl,
My mother and father were all ordinary people. It’s not great or special at all.”

“No wonder you grew up believing that. The environment was like this ······.”

The man looked around the inn and clicked his tongue. His warm eyes grew cold whenever he left the girl.

“But you’ll find out soon enough. What a special person you are. So, please, young lady.
Please allow me to guide you to Asinov’s palace. This  place doesn’t seem to suit you.”

“Who, who will take Dana at will?”

Robin, who was listening to the conversation between the two, pulled Dana toward him, trembling and wobbly.

“Dana is my daughter! I can’t take you without my consent!”

‘You’re not the father of the lady, merchant, let go of that dirty hand.’

“Dana will not go with you! If you don’t have my permission never!do you, Dana?

Robin, who shouted to the man, whispered in the girl’s ear.
“If you don’t answer properly, you’ll cause trouble for yourself Dana…”

“Huh?”

The girl frowned at the threatening words. The young girl was beaten by the stepfather for various reasons. She doesn’t listen,she’s lazy, she ate too much food.

He beat her with his big hands on her forearm with all sorts of excuses.

“Again.”

Looking at the girl’s face dyed with resentment, the driver’s face, which had otherwise been chilly, cooled down.

(Tl: they use word beat club  simply means that he punched her in her forearm and hits her every for single reason…imma kill this motrfu…!
┌( ◕ 益 ◕ )ᓄ )

”Punch ? Did you hit the lady?”

‘Hee!’

Robin’s little whisper did not escape the knight’s excellent hearing. And Robin freaked out with his fierce eyes.

He put the hem of the girl’s clothes.

‘Oh, no ······.’

‘That’s a lie.”

Even before Robin’s words were finished, a man kicked him with his tongue, and his body flopped on the floor, even at the slightest gesture of his feet. The man stared at Robin, groaning and rolling on the floor, and asked the girl,

“Where did you get hit?”

‘What?’

”Where did you get hit that child?”

‘Uh············ legs, back, and head ····’

the girl answered the man’s question in bewilderment. The man, who was still listening to the sound, lifted a large bucket of water rolling on the floor and returned it equally to one part that the girl was hit.

“Argh! Argh! Stop! Argh!”With a dull hitting sound, the stepfather’s scream rang. It was such a tremendous sight that I thought.

“Wow······!”

was beating like a dog. The man who quickly turned him into a rotten meat soon reached out to the girl with a friendly smile.

“Let’s go, then, shall we?”

* * *

‘But on the way to Ashinov’s house in a wagon, I was attacked by gunmen.’

The wagon fell into a lake after being swept away by the shambles. I tried hard to stir my arms and legs, but my body, which couldn’t swim, only sank down.

But at the crossroads of life and death.At the moment of, memories of my past life woke up like a lie. The memory of the unjustified citizen who died because he was misunderstood as the devil.

” Memories of past life and memories of present life. The name of my previous life was Danae, and the name of my present life is Dana.”

I used to be and I’m still a Danae. My head was confused by the mix of the two memories as “Danae.”

( tl: she woke up)

“Ugh······.” The men approached me in surprise at the sound that come out without realizing it.

‘Dana, does your head hurt?’

”What? Does it hurt?”

He was a quack! You said you were far away! Won’t you just throw it away before the inspiration arrives?”

‘I know. Shouldn’t you at least bring that quack in? His face is so pale.”

He’s making a fuss.These men made Dana’s otherwise complex head even more dizzy.

‘Hey!’

The men who were constantly clamoring at my cry shut their mouths.

‘By the way, who are you?’

‘Why the hell are you making such a fuss about…Three men exchanged glances at the following question, and soon the black-haired man grinned and opened his mouth.

‘Well, we’re your brothers, Dana.’

”Brothers?”

”I’m Lucas, and they’re Baratheon and Cissi.”

The blond twins grudgingly grinned at Lucas’s introduction.

“Why are you introducing us instead of yourself?”

The first thing I did was to be a bit more bulky and talkative.

“Hey, kid, I’m Baratheon. The price is high. It’s twins, but it won’t be hard to tell. I’m strong, and he’s in the emergency room.”

(Tl: lol that means he’s the weak one lamoo
（｡>‿‿<｡ ） )

”Who’s in the emergency room?…  This idiot!!

Cisse gritted his teeth and kicked Baratheon in the shin as if to prove the word. But Baratheon snorted and lightly avoided his kicks.

“See, you’re in the wrong room, right”

“················Yikes!”

The market slapped Baratheon in the back of his head, who was on guard raising his chin triumphantly. This time, the market snorted and looked at me.

“See? You’re an idiot, so you can’t ignore it.”

I looked at the three men in a confused state. My parents never once told me I had another brother.

Lucas, the calmest of the three, added an explanation whether he knew the question in my eyes.

“They’re not real brothers. ‘We’re all adopted.”

‘Adopted?’

”Yes, the Grand Duke took us back in view of our abilities.’

‘Oh,’ Lucas’s story mentions the name of another man I was curious about.”The Grand Duke. The driver who came to pick me up said I was his granddaughter ·······.”

‘That’ll be explained by the old man.’

‘Old man?’

‘Oh, Prince Ashinov. I mean your grandfather,”

Baratheon shrugged at my question.

“I’m in the capital for a while now, and I’ll be right back. I told them I found you.”

“But maybe I’m not your granddaughter.”
