In the spring of eight, my name became Keith Kraes.

This is the second time my name has changed. Even so, the first time I saw it, it was too small to remember very well.

I just feel like I've been told to be quiet in a small room until it's three and I've been sitting still in the corner of the room.

And one day, a man I'd never seen took me to a beautiful mansion in a fine carriage.

So I met my father and my stepmother, my brothers.

Everyone looked at me with terribly cold eyes and found that I was not welcome, even though I was young.

Later, rumors from the servants showed that my father was a child pushed by the mother of a whore.

I was not allowed to call my newly formed family my father, my mother. The brothers were told to do the same and treat each other with respect. At first, the salutation was not well used and I punished him many times.

I ate alone and in my room without being allowed to sit on the same table as my family.

My father and stepmother just assumed I wasn't there, so there was no great harm...

The brothers persisted in harassing me when they found me.

He was also beaten and kicked all the time, sometimes trapped in a barn and left for a day.

For that reason, I stayed in my room as still as I could to keep my brothers out of sight.

But it happened.

The weather was such a beautiful day. A little bird was nesting in a tree visible from the window of the room.

I wanted to see it near asexually as I watched the adorable little bird nesting so hard.

Gently, it was when I left the room and went all the way to the tree.

My brothers found me out there in the same way.

When the brothers surrounded me, they cursed, "A whore's child," repeatedly beating and kicking.

I circled my body and, as usual, stood still and waited for the hour to pass.

It was then. One of my brothers noticed a little bird on a tree. "Hey. There's a bird out there." "True. I'm building a nest or something. Let's drop him!" So the brethren began to throw stones at the little birds.

The stones break around the nest that the little birds were working so hard to build. Little birds also had stones around them. Little birds screamed.

"... stop!!

I screamed. And then something hot burst out of my body.

That's when. A number of something big came down from the sky.

And when I realized, my brothers were down with their feet and arms in front of me. And there were a number of pieces of dirt scattered around about fists. Looks like it was this mass of dirt that came down from the sky.

Much, the ground that fell like a solid mass of dirt was caved in. Apparently, the brothers were injured in this mass of dirt.

What the hell is this? I stood up. [M]

The brothers were then transported to the room by the servants who came to see how things were going, and a doctor was called.

The brothers beat themselves all over their bodies, and the terrible things were broken bones, apparently.

And the mass of dirt that caused the injury turned out to be the magic I activated and used.

From this day on, there was no further place in the house where there was originally no place.

It was forbidden to leave the room except when necessary.

My brothers have stopped approaching me. When you look at me, you scream, "It's a monster," you get a look of fear, and you run away.

Not only my brothers, but my father, my mother-in-law, and my servants were avoiding me. And although not as blatant as my brothers, there was still fear in my eyes to look at me.

I spent my days in a cage in my room killing my breath.

That was when I spent a few years of my days.

Another stranger came and told me.

"You are expected to have that powerful magic, and you have decided to be adopted by the Duke of Kraes"

Thus, I was taken to my new home in a carriage again.

It was a mansion I lived in for five years, but no one dropped me off.

What arrived was a huge and luxurious mansion, unlike the one I had ever lived in.

Everything from the decorated pot to the carpet laid down seemed expensive and badly distracted.

My new father-in-law was the owner of this mansion, the Duke of Klaes.

"Hey, are you Keith? Welcome to the Kraes family."

I was badly confused by the Duke of Klaez, who had said that and smiled at me, that I had never been greeted that way.

The Duke of Kraes immediately introduced me to his family.

Mrs. Kraes looked cold somewhere.

And Catalina Kraes, one of the Dukes of Kraes' daughters.

Because my brothers harassed me every day in the previous house, honestly, I was afraid of being a brother. I didn't want to get involved if I could even have a newly-made sister.

The day I arrived at the Catalina house, I greeted her gently and was immediately allowed to rest in her room.

He was suddenly brought in from the previous house and was terribly tired, which allowed him to sleep deeply that night, even in a large bed he was unfamiliar with.

The next morning, I surrounded myself with the Duke of Kraes, his family.

For the first time, I ate a meal with someone. I felt it tasted better than any meal I had ever eaten.

Somehow, when I go back to the room with a strange feeling like my chest is warmer.

Oh, my God, Catalina came to visit. Hopefully, I would have liked to spend some time without getting involved...... I didn't think you were coming from over there.

"I'll show you the garden," she said to Catalina. "Thank you. Dear Catalina," she thanked me and it swelled so much.

"Already, stop saluting me because I'm a sister and call me a sister," she said, terribly surprised.

Because so far in the house the salutation was not, of course, to be allowed to call the brothers brother, brother, etc.

Still, he said, "I dreamed of being called my sister. I'd love to call you," he asked me to manage to say, "Please. Sister," he said. Catalina, it laughed happily.

Then the two of us went out into the garden. Catalina guides us through the beautiful garden with pleasure.

For a while, I was talking to Catalina and I noticed.

That this girl named Catalina Kraes may be a little different as a nobleman's courtier.

"I'm good at fishing. Next time we'll be together," he invited me, eagerly describing his own fields.

I spent most of my time in a cage in my room, so I never fished or built a field, but the other brothers didn't seem to do that either.

I'm sure not many other aristocratic children have done that either.

When Catalina startles me, I think about that.

"I'll show you my favorite place."

So Catalina grabbed my arm and walked out on a fast leg.

As such, it was the tallest and biggest tree in the garden that was taken.

"It's a great view to climb this tree."

and said Catalina with sparkling eyes. And he asked me if I'd ever climbed a tree.

If you say I've never done it before.

"Well, I'll tell you what. First, I'll try to climb it, so watch."

With that said, Catalina takes off the shoes she was wearing and starts climbing the tree when she gives her dress away.

I glanced up at Catalina climbing a tree with Sulphur.

Looking up at Catalina climbing the tree as she was in the dress from the bottom, I can't help but see inside the dress.

Catalina doesn't care about that, or doesn't realize it, she climbs a sulsultry tree without a problem.

That's how, when I climbed to about the middle. Catalina smiled and waved loudly at me.

It was then. Catalina's body swayed a lot. Danger! I went under Catalina. [M]

Catalina fell over me after a while making a flashy noise with Dosun.

Shock ran for a moment, unconscious.

After a while, when consciousness returns and opens its eyes.

I was in Catalina's arms. [M]

"Keith, don't die."

And when I spoke to Catalina a few times crying... she finally realized I was okay.

"Keith!? You were alive!!

And I was hugged hard.

I became hardened by accident. [M] It was the first time someone had hugged me since I was tempted.

"Ha, Keith, does it hurt anywhere?

Catalina looked very worried about me when I was hardened.

I've never been so worried before.

I'm badly confused. Honestly, there's nothing particularly painful about it, but I've never been worried like this, and I have no idea what to do.

Catalina misunderstood how confused I was when I was injured and couldn't move. [M]

"Keith, wait here for a moment. 'Cause I'll have the servant come and transport you to the mansion right away."

With that said, Catalina slammed up her dress barefoot and ran off to the mansion with great speed.

As I dropped that back off, it was the same as at dinner this morning, and I kind of felt strange that my chest would warm up.

Lady Kraes suddenly cut out the fringe to the Duke of Kraes that night to make a fuss, but the misunderstanding was solved and reconciled.

After that, Mrs. Kraes, who did not start out as a misunderstanding, also became kind and varied.

Of course the Duke of Kraes does very well.

And my sister-in-law Catalina taught me all sorts of things.

I fished for the first time. "Don't tell your mother," she also told me about the tree climb.

If my teacher praised me for the archery of the sword, he would be happy as if he were himself.

Every day is fresh, fun, happy... so I forgot.

That I'm the monster that runs the mighty magic...

That day I finished my sword archery and came to Catalina and the field.

Catalina has always been in a good mood for a growing crop.

From the story of the field, Catalina said when it came to magic.

"I want to try to manipulate a dirt doll!

A puppet of dirt - magic that can be moved freely by putting magic into puppets made of dirt.

I could use this magic. [M]

It is a coincidence that it is now available. I could do it when I was dusting my room with dirt and making dolls.

I barely dealt with people in the previous house, and I lined up these dirt dolls and ate with them.

It was magic I could use, but I made a promise to the Duke of Kraes.

I have powerful magic, but I still can't control it properly.

I've hurt my brothers in previous houses, and I need to ask them to teach me magic and use magic to nag them until I can control that magic properly.

But I was begged by Catalina to stare at me full of expectations, and I used a little bit of magic.

Catalina was so happy to see the moving dirt doll that she turned the doll up as she was asked.

And the overgrown dirt doll was stuck moving like I thought.

Happily, Catalina approached the big dirt doll...... and was blown away by the arm of a doll that was out of control.

Catalina's little body swallowed the universe.

Now he couldn't even take it, and Catalina's body was slapped from his head on the hard ground.

Catalina, who was transported to her bedroom by the servants, was examined by a doctor and was diagnosed with no major injuries, merely stunned with her head.

I told the Duke of Klaes to watch Catalina worry. [M]

"I took the liberty of breaking my word and using my magic. Besides, that magic has hurt my sister. It's all my fault. I will take any punishment. I'm so sorry. You can keep kicking me out."

The Duke of Klaes looked at me like that with tender eyes.

"This time, because when Catalina wakes up, she also has to listen to Catalina. Let's talk about this again after Catalina wakes up. Keith, you look terrible, too. I'm going to fall down now. Catalina's fine now, so rest in your room."

That's what the Duke of Kraes urged me to come to my room.

I was heartily relieved to hear that Catalina woke up safely that night.

Immediately, I wanted to go see him, but... I couldn't.

I was scared...

I couldn't leave the room the next morning. [M]

It was the first time I came to this house that I missed my breakfast seat.

It was about the end of breakfast time.

"Keith. It's me. It's Catalina. She didn't show up for breakfast, but she's not feeling well?

Catalina came to my room. [M]

"... sister"

If you speak up unintentionally.

"Yes, it's me. Keith, what's going on? Does it hurt even in your stomach? Are you okay?"

Catalina looked worried when she was hurt worse because of me.

"... I'm nothing. Is your sister hurt better than that?

"Yeah, I'm fine. I just got a little tattoo on my head. More than that, Keith. I need to talk to you. Can I come into your room?

I was relieved at how well Catalina looked.

If it's true, I want to see that face right away... but...

"Excuse me, I can't do that"

"... why"

"... I can't be next to my sister anymore."

I really want to see your face right now.

Last I saw, I can't get the look out of my head of Catalina, unconscious and loose.

I want to make sure you're feeling better.

But I shouldn't be next to Catalina anymore.

If I were around, a monster that storms out powerful magic, I might hurt Catalina again.

I didn't want to hurt the kind Catalina who taught me so much anymore.

Catalina talked to me a lot outside the room, but I was round and still in bed.

This is how I originally lived alone in a cage in my room.

If I'm alone like this, no one... can live without hurting my loved ones.

After a while, I couldn't even hear Catalina.

I guess I gave up on loving me for not returning any replies.

Thinking blurry about that.

"Keith, if it looks like you're near the door, stay away."

I thought I gave up and left. I heard Catalina again.

Unexpectedly, when I looked at the door, the door that was locked broke with a buzzing noise.

At the entrance stood Catalina with a desperate face with an axe for some reason.

Catalina walked into the room through a broken door, stumbling on me.

And...

"Sorry about yesterday!!

Catalina lowered her head to rub it against the floor on her knees under my bed.

"I'm so sorry I said I couldn't and let you use the magic I don't want to use!! Besides, don't even ask for attention. Try to touch the earthly shape...... sorry for calling you worried!!

I was out of bed and knelt next to Catalina.

"... why, my sister apologizes... I'm the one who's bad..."

"What are you talking about? I'm the bad one! Because I told Keith I couldn't!!

Why is this man still coming to me? I wonder why you say it like this.

I felt scared because of my magic and even got hurt...

Yet...

"... isn't your sister afraid of me?

"Scared?

"... I hurt my brothers with magic in my previous house. And this time, I hurt my sister. My magic is strong, but I can't control that magic properly... it hurts people because I have powerful magic but I can't control it.... isn't your sister scared of me like this?

I talked about my magic and what happened before.

Now Catalina may never come to me again.

I was scared.

It hurts Catalina...

And more than that, being able to turn to Catalina, the horror-filled eyes that the people of previous houses have turned to…

Being cursed as a monster...... I couldn't wait to be scared.

So I can't look Catalina in the eye the whole time she came into the room.

If there was fear in its eyes...

I killed my breath and waited for Catalina's next word.

"... Oh, my God, I don't know ~"

In words so unexpected, I accidentally raised my face.

I had Catalina's watery eyes and eyes.

"If you can't control the magic, you just have to try to do what you can from now on. Soon, you will have a magic tutor, so join me in training for magic."

That's what I said and smiled Catalina's eyes didn't float a bit like fear...... they were very sweet eyes.

"... will your sister stay with me?

"Of course! We'll always be together."

One was hard and sad...... I wanted someone to stay with me.

But no one could have stayed with me. When I approached him, he cursed me as a "whore's child" and a "monster".

Nobody's staying with me... I was about to give up...

The girl in front of me said with a smile. He said he was with me the whole time.

"So in the future you shouldn't pull into a room by yourself by mistake...... what's wrong with Keith!?

Catalina glanced at my face worried as she raised her voice in surprise.

I did my hand on my face wondering what it was... it was wet.

There were tears in my eyes. [M]

Oh, am I crying?

I used to kill my voice in my room and cry a lot.

Tears always flowed when it was hard, when I was lonely. The more I cried, the more painful my chest became and the more painful it became.

Yet...

I wonder what these tears are. The more I cry, the more warmth will flood my chest.

This is the first time I've ever known that tears can be done when I'm happy.

Catalina looked at me so worried, she looked at my back.

Very gentle and warm hands.

Feeling the warm hand I felt strongly. [M]

I want to be with this girl named Catalina Kraes. [M]

He wants to stay with me as long as I'm allowed to.

Train your magic so you can control it properly.

And I want to be able to protect her someday beside Catalina.
