I Accidentally Saved The Male Lead’s Brother

“Is this true? The young master loves chocolate?

 

Celine pulled out one of the boxes that was behind the sofa.

 

Theo lifted his body slightly curiously as to what was inside, but he was unable to go to Celine because Charlotte was holding him.

 

Only when Charlotte got close to Sir Celine because of the restless Theo, did Celine give the box to Theo.

 

 

It was a box full of sweet-smelling candy.

 

“Can I eat that?”

 

Theo swallowed saliva.

 

“Yeah, but what if you can’t eat the chocolate because sister is holding Theo?”

 

Theo, who was holding the box in both hands, was unable to eat the chocolate by himself.

 

 

Theo’s lips stretched like a duck as he was unable to hold back his displeasure.

 

“Can I open it for you?”

 

“Yes …”

 

After thinking for a moment, Theo nodded, and Celine quickly took the piece of chocolate and put it in Theo’s mouth, who opened his mouth like a little bird.

 

With every bite , a smile of happiness spread across his face and was filled with joy.

 

Celine took out another box this time.

 

“Well, it’s all for Miss.. I bought it from the famous chocolate shop. You could say it’s one of the best deserts in the empire.”

 

“Thank you, I will eat it well. But ….”

 

Charlotte, embarrassed that she could not receive the box because her hand was occupied, Emma entered the room just in time and Charlotte called her hurriedly.

 

“Emma, ​​can you take this box?”

 

Emma quickly hung Charlotte’s dress, which she had brought from the dressing-room, and took the box from Celine.

 

Celine placed some other small box on top of the other box as if it were a tower.

 

“And that’s for Emma, ​​too.”

 

“Oh really ? isn’t it too expensive?”

 

“I was paid by the Grand Duke, so don’t worry .”

 

Celine winked at Emma. Emma hugged the box as if touched.

 

 

“But dame Celine was here and didn’t go to the training ground?”

 

“Naturally . Why would I go there without the miss?”

 

“I saw this on the way, the knights seemed to gather and fight, so I thought dame Celine would be there.”

 

“Oh, it looks like everyone is fighting to train for the upcoming sword art competition.”

 

In the empire, there is a foundation festival in October, when autumn is in full swing and many festivals and competitions are held.

 

 

The fencing competition was also one of the competitions held during the Foundation Festival, and as the name suggested, it was a competition to choose the best knight in the empire.

 

Not only official knights but also mercenaries and ordinary knights were able to participate in this competition.

 

It was interesting to watch, because it was possible to use different methods, such as the mace and the spear in addition to the sword.

 

In short, it can be said that the fencing competition was the flower of the founding day.

 

‘For reference, the winner the last year and the year before that was Carcel.’

 

The fencing competition wasn’t the first time Charlotte heard about.

 

Likewise, her two older brothers who had participated in the fencing art mentioned Carcel’s story a lot.

 

‘Thinking about it, I need to see my brothers as well.’

 

Charlotte remembered her siblings who had not thought of them for the past few days because she had been busy.

 

They might feel confused now that they had heard the story from Baron Lannia.

 

‘But I can’t be separated from Theo, so I can’t see them for a while .’

 

This increased the need to learn how to deal with mana in no time.

 

The story of Emma and Celine continued even when Charlotte was thinking.

 

Emma replied to Celine with a red face.

 

“That’s right. I heard this, but don’t you need to train, dame Celine?”

 

“Ah, it’s fine. I will not participate this time.”

 

“What ? Why ?”

 

Celine smiled, as if the Emma who was waiting for her answer was cute.

 

“I have to accompany the Miss.”

 

“No way.”

 

Celine sighed, looking at Emma, ​​who could not hide her disappointment.

 

“I’m not very interested in it. These fights are not to my liking.”

 

“Sorry, I wanted to see dame Celine on the training ground.”

 

“You can still go see me.”

 

Celine, who answered without hesitation, suggested something to Charlotte this time.

 

“Miss, would you like to visit the training ground? Everyone is so excited that it is worth watching.”

 

And she smiled strangely.

 

“Maybe the Duke will be there as well.”

 

It was Theo, not Charlotte, who responded to her words.

 

He stared at the box of chocolates and thought about what he would eat next, then raised his head after the title ‘Duke’ was mentioned.

 

“Brother?”

 

Celine bent her knees and brought her eyes to the same level as the child’s.

 

“Yes . The Duke, would you like to go see him?”

 

“Yes !”

 

Theo forgot to eat the chocolate and jumped with his legs.

 

Theo liked it and got excited, so it’d be good to take a look.

 

“I have nothing to do anyway .”

 

After I thought about it, Celine backed down from Emma and Charlotte.

 

“Then, let’s go.”

 

***

 

Even before reaching the training ground, loud cheers were being heard.

 

When we got to the training ground Theo was excited, the temperature was so hot we could feel it on our skin.

 

“Huh! It’s Brother!”

 

Theo looked around and pointed.

 

As he was pointing, Carcel who was unusually lightly dressed this time, was watching the knights with his arms crossed.

 

He turned his head when he heard the child’s voice that was inappropriate with the situation around him.

 

“Brother!”

 

His eyes widened after he saw Theo. Urging the knights not to care, he approached Charlotte.

 

The eyes staring at Charlotte started asking what was going on here.

 

“Wait ….”

 

Objecting to Charlotte’s explanation, Theo shouted.

 

“I came here to see Brother!”

 

Carcel winked gently at the nearby servants as he embraced Theo, who extended his hand to him.

 

The servants moved quickly and cleverly and laid mats under a tree in the shade.

 

“We can sit and watch.”

 

Carcel gently carried Theo on his left arm and extended his right hand to Charlotte. Charlotte took his hand gently and sat down on the mat.

 

As soon as Carcel sat on the ground, Theo descended and sat on Charlotte’s lap.

 

“Oh, Sir Anderson is fighting.”

 

Celine, standing behind Charlotte, let out a slight whistle.

 

“If it’s Sir Anderson, is he Irina’s father?”

 

“Yes that’s right . He’s Mrs. Renner’s father.”

 

Charlotte patted Theo’s stomach and looked at the middle-aged man Celine had been referring to.

 

Thinking about it, it was a man she had seen once. Clearly, he was the man who had been searching for Theo in the Lannia estate.

 

‘That person is Irina’s father, .’

 

After knowing this, the bridge of the nose did look a bit similar.

 

While Charlotte was comparing their faces, the duel began with the screams of Sir Anderson.

 

The opponent was a young knight about

Carcel’s age . 

The wooden swords collided loudly. Theo clenched his fist.

 

“Hey, Theo too!”

 

“Huh?”

 

Theo pointed at the knights and looked at Carcel.

 

“Theo wants this.”

 

Charlotte didn’t understand what he was talking about, but Carcel seemed to understand right away.

 

He picked up a twig from the ground and cut the thorns around it and placed it in Theo’s hand.

 

Theo slipped out of Charlotte’s arms and stood holding the branch in both hands. Perhaps because of the innate blood of the knights running through his veins, he looked good for a three-year-old child.

 

Carcel watched Theo spinning, then knelt behind him and caught him holding the branch.

 

“Like this .”

 

When he corrected his stance, Theo’s stance made more sense. Carcel grabbed Theo by the hand and raised his arm.

 

“good job!”

 

At this moment, Theo lowered the branch from top to bottom with Carcel’s help.

 

tack. tack. tack. tack.

 

As the wooden swords collided, a voice rang out in Charlotte’s ear.

 

Charlotte, who had been watching Theo’s practice,  turned her head as soon as she heard the sound.

 

Sir Anderson rushed to the knight.

 

The knight cut the wooden sword aimed at his stomach, and the cheers got louder.

 

Theo followed him excitedly, swinging his arms up and down, right and then left.

 

“Sister! Look at this!”

 

“Yes . Good job Theo.”

 

Charlotte raised her thumbs to the excited Theo and then turned back and focused on the knight who was getting faster.

 

The knight tried to shoot at Anderson’s  foot and Anderson tried to hit him in the neck.

 

The knight, who bent down to dodge the attack and moved quickly behind Sir Anderson, and Sir Anderson who turned and carried a wooden sword.

 

Tech. Tech.Tech.

 

As the faint sound of the wooden swords striking each other grew faster and faster, Theo’s movements also accelerated.

 

That was when Theo, sweat dripping down his forehead, collapsed into Charlotte’s arms saying it was hard.

 

Sir Anderson, who was blocking the knight’s sword that was flying towards his side, lost his strength and lost focus a bit.

 

The knight aimed at Sir Anderson’s neck, which was showing a gap, and extended his sword.

 

But Anderson wasn’t too far behind. He immediately put his weight on one of his legs and swung his arm.

 

It was time for Sir Anderson to strike his opponent’s wooden sword with a faint sound.

 

“Oh?”

 

The wooden sword was broken in an instant and the upper piece flew toward Charlotte.

 

‘No !’

 

Charlotte spontaneously hugged the exhausted Theo in her arms and then bent her body.
