I’ve Been Reincarnated as a Villainess’ Older Brother - CH 101

As the actual problem, Cain himself thought that there would be nothing that Cain himself could do about it.

Taking advantage of the high ability of the body of a potential suitor, and thanks to constant training and study without lacking, he was the excellent existence of the current “Cain” but he was still a 12 years old student.

For example defeating the enemy in front of him, devising a strategy for something within his reach, or reaching out to the troubled people close to him.

He had the power to do these kinds of things, but purifying a cursed land was indeed far larger in scale.

To begin with, Cain did not have the magic of holy attributes. He wanted to learn it to avoid the game protagonist, but in the end, he couldn’t learn the holy attribute.

“Cain, Brother went to a meeting with the knights about tonight’s camp. Hey, please tell me things about magic.”

Gianluca pinched the edge of Cain’s robe and pulled it. As he looked back and looked down, he thought that Gianluca was about the same height as Diana and Arundilano. Gianluca was then nine years old, the same age as them. When you think about it, it was something obvious though.

“By the way, Julian-sama said earlier that Gianluca-sama has magical power. It’s rare for Yum people, isn’t it?”

“Yeah. I heard that my mother’s grandmother was a Break princess. That’s why the magical power has appeared in me, so I’ve been told.”

“I see.”

Professor Yannis said that people in Siriyuum basically cannot use magic, but there were cases where people were born with magical power. Especially in the city on the border between Siriyum and Limuto Break, there seemed to be some people who can use magic, and whether or not magic can be used would probably depend on the lineage, Professor Yannis said.

“Are there any magics that Gianluca-sama is good at? I’m good at flame magic.”

Cain asked the question in an attempt to broaden the topic of conversation, but Gianluca shook his head with a sad look on his face.

“I can’t use magic properly because I don’t have anyone to teach me magic. Because of that, it’s made so that I can’t use magic.”

Saying that, he showed Cain his right wrist. On his wrist, there was a bracelet with a row of beautiful blue stones.

“It’s a beautiful bracelet?”

“This is a magical power control device. At Yum, when you are born with magical power, this device is attached to you and is being controlled so that you can not use magic.”

“Hah?”

Cain blurted his honest reaction even though he was talking to a prince.  Even though he was born with magical power, his magical power is being controlled. Since he was in the position of a prince, finding someone to teach him magic can somehow be done. Due to his position itself, it would be fine to even request Limuto Break to send a mage that can teach him magic.

“Can’t you remove it? It’s unfortunate that you can’t use magic even though you’re born with magical power.”

“In a country where people can’t use magic, being able to use magic means that if you make even one mistake, you’ll become a symbol of fear. That’s why it’s better that I’m not able to use magic…”

It was a lie.

If it was better for him not to be able to use magic, he wouldn’t say things like please tell me things about magic to Cain.  In a country without mages, if there were only a few mages, it certainly posed a threat.

Cain’s previous life was a world without any magic at all. In that world, a person who can scatter flames without a flamethrower, or a person who can freeze everything in front of you without having a liquid nitrogen cylinder, was considered a dangerous person under terrorism.

But he wondered if it was right to shackle the good people who haven’t done anything? Moreover, in the neighboring country, it was an ability that was being considered as something natural.

“Can’t you remove this bracelet?”

Cain asked again. Julian requested both of them for help. There was a high possibility that the bracelet could be removed at that place.

“This time, Brother brought the key to remove it. In case something happened in this remote area.”

“Then, let’s have it removed.” Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com

“But…”

Gianluca pulled on Cain’s robe again. He looked up to him with a troubled look on his face.

Cain unconsciously stroked Gianluca’s head. The position of his head was around the same position as Diana and Arundilano.

“We’ve come all the way to such a remote place. It’s a great opportunity to try magic.”

He smiled cheerfully and strongly stroked Gianluca’s head again, he took Gianluca’s hand which was crumpled around his robe and they walked to Julian, who was discussing something with the knights.

“Julian-sama. Please remove Gianluca-sama’s bracelet.”

When he got to Julian’s side, Cain said so directly without any preface.

“I can’t do that. It’s said that the bracelet can only be removed in case of emergency.”

“To begin with, if a mage is considered dangerous, it’s strange not to make me wear a bracelet to control my magical power.”

“Cain is a guest from a neighboring country. To begin with, you are properly educated about magic in Break, right? Something like getting out of control would not happen?”

“I’m twelve this year and this is the first time I’m being a student. Break is also the same with school entrance at the age of twelve. You can’t count on the quality of the private tutor, don’t you think?”

“You’re from a duke family, right? And the top one in the country. The tutor there can’t be those who are careless and the like. To begin with, we have done at least a background check, and I become your roommate to make sure that Cain does not get out of control. On top of these, if we put a shackle on you, it would be an international issue.”

“So you do think that this is a shackle?”

Professor Tirnoa said that magical skills will improve after becoming an adult, but it was important to use and polish magical powers as a child. The focus was on how much of a waste it was to put the shackle on Gianluca after they found out that he had magical power.

“This is the farthest land, isn’t it? They are only us and nine knights. There’s no one around to even peek at us in such a remote place. Don’t you think it’s the best place to practice magic, Your Highness Prince Julian?”

“Cain….”

Julian was pondering with his hand on his chin. Cain looked down at Gianluca’s face as he thought that all that was needed was another push.

“Does Gianluca-sama want to try using magic?”

“I want to try using it! I want to be a mage who makes everyone happy, like the mage Facca Focca!”

Cain looked at Julian’s face as if asking what was the Mage Facca Focca?. Julian let out a deep sigh and pushed on his brow with one hand.

“After this, we will procure food in the forest. In the meantime, let’s remove Gianluca’s bracelet. I can’t have Cain take the responsibility so I’ll assign two knights with you. Prove yourself by catching a rabbit or the like, Gianluca.”

“Yes! Brother!”

“Please wait a minute. We can’t go to the actual hunt so suddenly. Please remove the bracelet now. I will teach magic as much as I can before the actual hunt. We came all the way to this prairie where there’s nothing at all, so there would be no damage or shit like that even if he lost control.”

“Shit is not a very aristocratic word to say, Cain.”

Cain did not give up.

He often saw it in his previous life, when being asked to do the actual thing so suddenly, and then people saying see, you can’t do it after all. Especially when he stopped by a kindergarten or a nursery for a business meeting, he often encountered the scene of boys arguing about this. I can do it, you know! No, you can’t do it! Then try it! – these were the common kind of tit-for-tat, and when they tried to do it at the very same spot, most of them wouldn’t be able to do it.

There were many cases where they were being stubborn and saying they can do it! – when they actually cannot but, there certainly were also kids who were able to do it normally until the day before, but they couldn’t do it when they tried doing it after the tit for tat.

Children’s mental state was more fragile than what people think. Even the gang leader who always ran into Cain when he came in for business meetings, there were times that for some reason, they were not able to run as well as they usually do in front of their favorite teacher.

“Please give us practice time. Then me and Gianluca, we will show that we are able to procure enough food for everyone to fill up their stomach.”

With the condition that he would immediately put the shackle back on if anyone around them were put in danger, Julian removed Gianluca’s bracelet.
