I’ve Been Reincarnated as a Villainess’ Older Brother - CH 99
“Cain! Get ready to go out! Get ready for an overnight stay!”
When Cain had eaten about half of the cold omelet, Julian came into the dining hall. The one who responded to that was the students in the dining hall, other than Cain.
“His Royal Highness, Prince Julian! Are you saying you’re taking Cain-kun for an overnight stay?”
“What rights do you have to do that !? You should respect Cain-sama’s independence!”
“Did you know that Cain-kun had promised to have a talk with us about the studies and classes of the second and third grades!?”
“If you want to go out, why don’t you go out alone or invite Shirley Leah!?”
“Don’t take Cain-kun away!”
Those who were still eating omelets, those who had finished eating and washing the dishes in the kitchen, and those who had finished eating and chatting with friends, all of them stood up and shouted at Julian who was standing near the entrance.
Facing an unexpected situation, Julian unconsciously stopped and backed out.
“Wha, what is it with you people? You weren’t very close to Cain in the first place?”
“We got closer this morning!”
“And we will get along well from now on.”
“At least, don’t take him until Maddy is back!!”
For lunch and dinner, the cafeterias in the city were opened, so those who remained in the dormitory could eat proper meals. However, there were almost no shops that opened during breakfast time. Therefore, those who remained in the dormitory must figure it out on their own. Until then, it seemed that Maddy cooked breakfast for everyone when the dormitory cafeteria was closed. For a fee.
When Cain heard about that, he knew the reason that Maddy returned home was to fetch his second-grade textbook, so he couldn’t complain about the cold omelet anymore.
“Senior Maddy will probably be back tomorrow morning.”
“Is it so?”
When Cain told Thibaud about Maddy’s plans, the tall Thibaud peered at Cain’s face as if he was looking down.
Cain scooped the omelet on a spoon while telling the story that he had heard from Maddy.
“He said he was just going back to take something. He also said that he won’t stay long at home.”
“Yes, indeed he always said he didn’t like going home since they would make him attend matchmaking.”
“Huh? Senior Maddy has a girlfriend, right?”
“The cute salesgirl at the city’s cafeteria, right. He said that he’ll leave the house eventually though. But although he’s the third son, he’s still the son of a Viscount family. Seems like the family is against it.”
“…I didn’t know that.”
Cain put the spoon in his mouth and ate the omelet. He seasoned it only with salt and pepper, but it tasted bitter.
“So, is it okay or not to take Cain? How is it?”
Julian said as he came to the seat next to Cain and sat down. For the time being, it seemed like he wouldn’t go against everyone’s opposition and took him away. That part of his personality showed that he was maybe sensible or maybe soft-hearted?
Cain had the omelet in his mouth so he was quiet. Thibaud who was sitting across them in the seat between Julian and Cain, leaned halfway over the table and looked into Julian, and grinned.
“If Maddy is back, I think it’s okay for you to take Cain, Your Highness.”
“Is it okay as long as Maddy is here? …By any chance, did Cain make the omelet that everyone is eating!?”
“It was delicious.”
Thibaud told Julian, grinning bigger. Julian silently stared at the other half of Cain’s omelet, but Cain was very hungry. He ignored Julian’s silent pressure and emptied the plate without leaving a trace.
“Cain’s willpower is quite strong…”
“It’s not something to feed a prince who usually eats good food.”
Cain placed the spoon on the plate and faced Julian. Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com
“So, where are we going?”
“Yes, it’s a part-time job. I’ll pay you properly. Get ready to use magic.”
“I’m asking where we’re going.”
“Rejoice, Cain, I’ll give you the chance to ride a flying dragon.”
“It’s not that I want to ride a flying dragon, I want to go home with a flying dragon.”
“It’s a chance to check in advance if you’re going to get sick when riding a flying dragon? It would be horrible if you become sick from riding the flying dragon despite paying a lot of money and then you won’t be able to go home.”
Cain turned around and looked at Thibaud’s face.
“Can you get sick when riding a flying dragon?”
“I don’t know because I’ve never ridden one.”
Thibaud’s reply was blunt. Cain faced Julian again, crossed his arms, and frowned.
“I want to study in the second half of the break though.”
“We’ll be back in three days. You can study in the second half of the break.”
Cain sighed at Julian’s attitude, which showed that he will be taken away regardless.
“Okay. I’ll get ready, where should I go?”
“I have a carriage waiting in front of the dormitory gate. I can go to the room together and help with packing?”
“No need. Please wait in the carriage. There is no party or the like where we’re going, right?”
“No, no. We’re going to the plain near the northern border. There’s nothing there, so it’s best to prepare to keep warm so that it doesn’t get cold.”
After washing the used dishes and utensils and returning them to the shelves, Cain returned to his dormitory room.
Three days meant two nights, so he rolled up two sets of underwear and two towels and thrust them into a backpack, and carried it on his back.
He was told to be ready to use magic, so he put on the robe he received from Tirunoa. The robe’s hem that was fluttering like flower petals, seemed like it would be useful for cold weather because it did not allow air to pass through.
He was hesitating about the slender sword he got from Fabian but decided to leave it there for that time.
He locked his room and walked to the dormitory gate, where a magnificent carriage with the crest of the royal family was waiting.
“Wow, Cain. You look like a mage. Good, good. Now, come in.”
When Cain approached nearby, Julian opened the carriage door and beckoned from inside. When Cain got into the carriage, he saw that other than Julian, Gianluca was also there.
“Hello, Your Highness Gianluca.”
“Hello, Cain. You don’t have to be so formal with me, just like with my brother.”
“Then, Gianluca-sama. Gianluca-sama will also go together?”
“Yes. I’m glad to be able to join you.”
Julian was a royal family member and really acted like it, using royal family member-like language while his younger brother, Gianluca, spoke very politely. In terms of sitting, Julian sat with his legs open and his arms crossed, while Gianluca sat well-behaved with his legs closed and his hands resting on his knees. Cain felt bad towards Julian but somehow his younger brother gave the impression that he was smarter.
“Today, we’re heading to the planned site of the new city.”
“New city?”
As the carriage began to move, Julian began to explain their destination for that day.
“This country moves the royal capital every 100 years. Three years later is the next 100 years, but to match the timing, the capital relocation will be when I graduate. So it would be six years later. “
“Is it okay to be off the target by three years?”
“It’s within the margin of error, because there is no specific ritualistic meaning to the period of exactly 100 years.”
“Is that so?”
“Because the king of the new city will be me, so it’s left entirely up to me to build the new city. This time is to visit the planned site.”
The royal palace was not so far from the dormitory.
While listening to Julian’s story, the carriage passed through the castle gate. The carriage continued straight on the cobblestones of the castle grounds for a while and then turned to the right.
Beyond that, there was the knight’s post, and there was a plaza for the flying dragons to take off and land.
“Because the planned site has a bit of special circumstances. I want Cain, a Breaker who can use magic, to see it.”
“Special circumstances?”
The carriage arrived and the knight who was waiting opened the door.
Cain, who was sitting in the seat closest to the entrance, got off first, and then Gianluca and Julian got off the carriage in that order.
In the plaza that was in front of them after getting off the carriage, three or four dragons about the size of a gantry crane stood calmly.
Cain looked up at it and once again he felt deeply moved in his heart, thinking that he had indeed reincarnated in another world.
