Mr. Nobu’s Otherworld Chronicles

Episode 235: Brother and Me

"Kyle, I'm sorry about what I did to you! If I were a man, I'd be better off."

Gein's brother in my memory is about one everywhere. He was the kid general himself. A small orphanage that was on the outskirts of Gramada. That's where I lived with my brothers.

All I had to do was lose my parents and die on the street. Dr. Grandpa, the director of the orphanage, picked me up. With all the ten of us living together in the same situation as me.

The oldest of us was Gein's brother. I thought it was a cliche that arms grow strong and fast and make money with this arm. I respect and admire Dr. Grandpa more than anyone else. He took the lead in taking care of us. For my brother, I am a parent and a teacher. Once upon a time, Grandpa and Sensei taught us how to protect ourselves when we were troop leaders in Wang Du's army. My brother was foolishly training it over and over again. When it came to me, swordsmanship seemed better suited to me than body surgery, and I was swinging a wooden sword early.

"Hey, Kyle. We're still going to the woods today through the outer walls. I wish I could take one of the rabbits, not just the nuts."

"Okay. Heh heh heh, my new wooden sword is gonna blow the fire!

"Kyle, you're an idiot. If a wooden sword sprays fire, it will burn."

Brother, it's the Aya of the Word... There was something unfortunate about it, but my brother, who took the initiative to think about everyone and collect food, was very reliable.

One day in the winter. We wrap ourselves in one blanket to keep warm in order to spend some time with the food that we had stockpiled without fruit and prey. It was enough to make my stomach ache from hunger. I remember throwing these questions at Grandpa and Doctor to distract me like that.

"Nah, Grandpa Sensei was in Wang Du's army, wasn't he? Why are you doing an orphanage here? No, it's like we're alive because of that, but if you retired from the military, you'd have a pretty good life over there, wouldn't you?

Grandpa and Doctor always answered my questions like that.

"Ho, ho, ho, ho. I've done a lot too much blood-smelling. Growing you guys up like this also means that you're doomed. Regardless, you guys are like handy but adorable grandchildren. I don't even have a son. Oh, Kyle. You grow up straight. Take the lead on good things, take the lead on bad things, and be strong enough to keep them under control. You're smart, so I'm sure you'll get the right path. Don't be like a weasel."

That's what I said. I was stroked in the head. You were the brother who swelled up when you saw me like that.

"Eh, that's just good for Kyle. Grandpa Doctor. What about me? Can you be an adventurer or something?

"Ugh, mmm. Gean is. If you think about it, it's straight line. You should remember to think a little more calmly. No. If you act like an idiot without thinking deeply, you might fail."

He looks like he chewed up a bitter bug and drips. Grandpa teacher grinning and stroking his brother like that.

"What, the dumber the kid, the cuter. Gearn or. I know you who work hard every day since you're the oldest. There is a belief that foolishness can penetrate it. That's a terrible trait."

Where was the depression until earlier, my brother hugs Grandpa and Doctor with a full smile. The oldest, but the fruit, is sweeter than anyone in this world. We all know that. He said he was like a brother he could rely on and at the same time a handy brother.

Burning. Fire swallows everything. Burned out. We were limping.

I have a teacher in my brother's arms who breathes constantly. There was no stopping blood overflowing from that body, which was deeply mutilated.

"Doctor Grandpa! Don't die! I don't want you to die! Hey, open your eyes!!

Tears abound from that face of coal paint, and the grieving cry of pleading determines our hearts. How did this happen? Such thoughts dominate the chest.

Behind us was the beast man who set fire to the orphanage. The beast man, who was losing his right leg with one eye, is yelling at Grandpa and Sensei to return his wife and daughter. Why did Grandpa Sensei... our house... Despair and confusion repeat the grandeur in my head.

Open your vain eyes to us like that. Grandpa speaks.

"Ha, ha, Gian, don't cry. This is not my fault."

Gaha continues his words as he spits out a chunk of blood. Oh, already, Grandpa teacher has given up on being helpful, I thought you were embracing death for some reason.

"The eagles led troops hunting beasts in the army. I'm still stuck in my ear. The beasts and the bastards will blame you for capturing their children and obeying their parents. Of course not. I decided to stop the army and hide here in Gramada because I couldn't stand it. It means both what I've raised you guys and what redemption means.... Gahoo... Gian, listen to me. Don't resent the Beast Man because he's dead. Somewhere we have to break the circle of hatred. That's not what I was able to say. Then if there's anything out there that I'd like to avenge from you guys... it's sad."

A glimmer of tears conveys Grandpa Doctor's cheek. I don't want to send you out with such carelessness. I stood up.

"Dr. Grandpa. I'll be a guard. Don't let this tragedy happen. so that it can be stopped beforehand. I'll make you a fine best guard. Of course, protect everyone who lives in Gramada. I'm sure I can't do it alone. So be great. Just be great and protect everyone in large numbers. Hey, Doctor Grandpa!

You were inspired by that. Everyone talked about what they wanted to do and whether the future would be a little brighter for Grandpa and Sensei. Because I felt like this guy was really going to disappear when I stopped talking. Among other things, only Gian's brother had not uttered a word in silence.

"Ha, ha. At the end of the day, these good boys surround me, they die. This is happiness, then... wah... no"

"" "" "" Grandpa Sensei -!!!

Grandpa Sensei passed away. It's gone. The colour of despair was gone on that face, and there was a smile on his face. Is that at least salvation? We all cried until the tears dried up. I called Grandpa Doctor's name until my voice withered. But... he's not coming back.

Then it was an orphanage that became a pile of rubble, but it was rebuilt and simplified, but reborn into a better building than ever before. The monks of the Temple of Levelit, seconded as the new Dean, say the great men of the city who heard this noise cut their money and rebuilt them. I later found out that Captain Matuda was the man.

After a few years I enlisted in the Guard as an apprentice. By then, some of the people we were with have also nestled in orphanages. So did Gein's brother. Since then, my brother, who has lost his mouth and has occasionally become blocked, has suddenly left the orphanage saying that he will be an adventurer. He rarely shows his face but seems to be doing well. Because sometimes I knew donations were thrown in my brother's name.

I've trained myself as a guard, and while I'm being chased on my daily assignment, I'm also less reminded of Gein's brother. But I was sometimes slightly discouraged that every time I heard a rumor that wasn't very good, I would be dragging about Grandpa and Doctor all the time. Still, he said he was acting as an adventurer without dyeing his hands in crime etc... even though he believed so.

"Why... are you here... Gian's brother..."

Gean doesn't answer that. I was just staring at Kyle without saying anything.
