I Became the Younger Brother of the Female Protagonist in the Novel

chapter 9



“… … I gave you pocket money the other day, but are you saying it wasn’t enough?”

-I know that 50 gold coins is a considerable amount by the standards of the human race. Besides, it won’t change the fact that it’s also a lot of money for a boy who is only 9 years old.

“Then what the hell are you thinking… … .”

-Hmm… … . Since you said you knew the future, wouldn’t it be like you trying to prepare something?

Sofia closed her eyes at Elaim’s words and immediately lay flat on the bed.

Kayneth was a really lovely and cute little brother.

outwardly.

However, being unable to grasp his true intentions properly, Sophia had no choice but to become complicated.

“… … I’ll go and ask him myself tomorrow.”

-Didn’t you say your fiancé is coming tomorrow?

“… … .”

Sophia’s beautiful forehead twisted at Elaim’s question.

“… … It was.”

Sophia started muttering swear words.

She covered herself with the blanket and immediately closed her eyes. Then she shuddered as she remembered her husband from her previous life.

As if just thinking about it makes my teeth tremble.

The eldest son of the Marquess of Welford, Halbert T Welford.

As soon as he became the head of the Welford family, he left Sophia behind and began to enjoy a dissolute life by inviting concubines to the family.

Halbert lived a busy life with pleasure and gambling.

and one day

“These days, funds have been going to strange places… … .”

Halbert burst into Sophia’s office with a wrinkled face.

“What do you mean by suddenly coming?”

Sophia exchanging glances with him with an expressionless look.

She asked with a confident face as if she had nothing to worry about. And seeing Sophia’s proud appearance, Halbert raised his voice while contorting his face.

“come in!”

rattle.

Three women rush into Sofia’s office.

Halbert accepted beautiful young ladies from lower noble families as concubines. And every night I went in and out of their bedroom.

On the other hand, after the wedding ceremony, he never visited Sophia’s bedroom.

Sophia had a beautiful appearance, but her cold personality cooled Halbert’s heart.

She was left behind and neglected.

Halbert said as he tossed the papers he had prepared in his arms to Sophia.

“These are evidence of the funds you embezzled and the corruption you have committed so far.”

“What nonsense is that… … .”

When Sophia tried to argue, Isabella, the concubine, stepped forward.

She pointed a finger at Sophia.

“I saw it clearly! The image of the madam walking around the entertainment district with some young man!”

“Besides, the maids said they saw that chest of drawers was full of jewels!”

Halbert opened the chest of drawers following the concubine’s advice.

“… … I’m sure.”

A drawer full of jewels.

At that, Halbert’s face twisted.

At the same time, Sophia couldn’t help but be embarrassed.

Sophia said it was not her fault and actively protested against the conspiracy wives’ accusations.

However, when the expenditure details in the ledger were discovered for the first time in his life, and his VIP membership card found at an entertainment bar was presented as evidence, Halbert turned his head away as if he did not want to hear Sophia’s excuses.

“The funds four X used alone amounted to 20,000 to 30,000 gold coins.”

Halbert imprisoned Sophia in the dungeon as if nothing more had to be heard.

Sophia, who suddenly became the source of the Welford family’s financial deterioration.

The finances of the Marquess of Welford, out of her hands, were bound to deteriorate rapidly.

In the meantime, concubine wives had no choice but to use limited property. However, from the moment the reins of Sophia disappeared, the Welford family’s financial problems began to deteriorate rapidly.

In addition, even Halbert, who came and went to the gambling house like his own house.

A few weeks after that… … .

“My lord, the peasants are revolting!”

“What, what?!”

At the sudden report from the butler, Halbert had no choice but to jump.

He hurriedly moved his troops at the news of the civil war. About 170 farmers died in such a violent suppression.

As public sentiment began to deteriorate, Halbert made a plan to avoid the situation by blaming Sophia for all the crimes.

“First, deliver this document directly to the newspapers.”

“this is… … .”

The head butler looked over the contents of the document and immediately shrugged.

And it was Halbert who narrowed his eyes at the appearance of the butler.

he said in a menacing voice.

“The order to suppress the riot was given by Sofia, not by me. Did you understand?”

“… … Yes, I understand.”

After hesitating for a moment, the butler had no choice but to nod.

‘The loss of life in the process of suppressing the civil riot. All of these events were caused by Sophia’s arbitrary order, and the family’s financial difficulties and high tax rates were also caused by Sophia’s extravagance.’ Articles began to spread throughout the empire.

The Welford family constantly handed fabricated information to newspapers, and Sophia was accused of being a rare villain.

“Listen to Sophia T Welford! I will sentence you to exile according to the evil you have committed so far. The place of exile has been designated as Velma’s Forest, and as of today, all of your privileges will be taken away!”

Whoaaa!

The people began to cheer at Halbert’s declaration.

“You f*cking motherf*cker! Because of you, my son… … !”

“I will never forgive you! Rip it up and kill it right now!”

“Death penalty! Put them on the gallows immediately and cut off their heads, just as you have punished criminals!”

People’s resentment began to turn to Sophia.

Halbert and his three concubine wives, who had been watching, were finally relieved.

After spending three months in the dungeon, Sophia hung her head with disheveled hair and parched lips.

‘Velma’s Forest… … .’

This is the place where the Welford family’s villa was located just 30 years ago.

Of course, as the monsters began to move in large numbers, Velma’s forest was designated as an area off limits to the general public.

It is said to be an exile, but in reality it was a punishment close to the death penalty for causing an accident.

f*ck!

As Sophia was about to get into the carriage, a small stone flew and hit her head.

Red blood dripping from his forehead.

Sophia looked helplessly into the eyes of the young woman who threw the stone.

“die! kill it!”

At the sound of the woman’s cursed screams, Sophia laughed and boarded the carriage.

Episode 8

8. Main character, Sophia H Spay One (2)

Sophia is on her way to Velma’s Forest.

Hee-yi-!

The carriage stopped abruptly and the horse began to neigh.

At that, Sophia flinched and rolled her eyes.

‘what happened… … .’

rattle!

When the carriage door was forced open, she threw her upper body back in a fright.

A man in a cloak soon entered the carriage.

How did you know it was a man?

“Hoo~? After all, she is one of the most beautiful women in the Labadian Empire.”

voice. Yes, at the mischievous voice of a young man no matter who heard it, Sophia’s hair turned white and her mouth opened slightly.

“Who, who… … .”

“me? The man your father sent.”

A cloak that covers the whole body. I couldn’t see the face closely.

But Sophia could tell for sure that the man was smiling.

Then, at the word ‘Father’, Sophia’s eyes began to light up for a moment.

“You say, ‘You are no longer useful, abandoned by the Marquess of Welford’?”

“… … to?”

She met the cloak man’s eyes with a blank expression.

It was Sophia who hoped that his playful comment was a joke. But unfortunately, her wish was ruthlessly crushed.

“Your father is a high-ranking official in our church. And that executive said that it was okay to use you as wealth.”

“Uh, what is that… … .”

Fu-wook!

“Oh, what were you trying to say? Then tell me quickly~”

The man thrust the dagger into Sophia’s thigh.

It happened in the blink of an eye, and her head was discolored like a sheet of paper, and soon… … .

“ah… … . Ahh… … . aaagh!”

I started screaming and screaming at the immense pain I felt in my thighs.

“I was thinking of not letting you run away just because you learned some swordsmanship… … . What, didn’t you have to?”

f*ck!

“Cuck!”

Sophia was hit in the back of the neck.

As her mind began to fade, the cloaked man smiled and waved.

“Sleep well~”

When Sophia regained consciousness, it was immediately after being moved to a place that looked like a temple.

To be precise, it should be said that it is on top of the foundation located in the center of the temple.

After her arms and legs were cut off, Sophia was offered as a sacrifice to summon the devil.

That pain will never be forgotten.

* * *

Jump!

“ha… … . ha… … . ha… … .”

Sophia’s eyes lit up and she lifted her upper body from the bed.

She closed her eyes in a cold sweat.

-are you okay? I think I’m having a nightmare… … .

Sophia let out a deep sigh at Elim’s worried look, and then put her right hand on her forehead.

“… … are you okay. I need to wash more than that.”

-Yes, I will help you.

Elaim, the spirit king, followed Sophia and filled the bathtub with warm water.

Sophia threw away her nightgown and immediately soaked herself in the bathtub.

She threw her head back and closed her eyes for a moment.

‘… … never … … I will never forgive you.’

It is today. Today, he meets the person who killed him.

The eldest son of the Marquess of Welford. Halbert T Welford.

‘… … Have you turned 16 this year?’

She vowed that she would surely drown Halbert in the pit of despair and let him die.

‘But not now. In order to destroy the Spey Ones and the Welfords… … .’

Two families that can exert a strong influence in the current Labadian Empire. Even the Spey One family had more power than most marquess and dukes.

There’s no way I can do something like that right now.

Sophia took a 30-minute soak in the bathtub while calming herself down.

Afterwards, to greet Halbert, she put on a white dress with the help of the maids.

“Whoa… … .”

She wanted to twist his neck right away, but she let out a deep sigh and immediately left the bedroom.

‘yet… … . yes, it’s still Eliminating him now won’t solve everything.’

She clenched her fists as she went out the front door of the main building and looked at the carriage of the Marquess of Welford.

Kwak.

‘I’ll let you experience hell someday.’

Resolving her determination, she quickly adjusted her expression and greeted Halbert, who turned 16 this year.

“Hmm? Sophia… … Your sister is dating Welford Youngsik?”

“He visited at 10:00 am, had lunch, and passed away at 2:00 pm.”
