I Accidentally Saved The Male Lead’s Brother

‘I can do it.’

 

I’ve trained a lot with Sir Ahin so far. It was like blowing out candles. It was easy.

 

The moment she tried to encourage herself on her own, Teresa’s words came into her head.

 

— It is best not to use it as much as possible. In particular, you must completely avoid targeting a powerful force like yesterday. However, if you have to use a lot of energy due to unavoidable circumstances, please reach out to me.

 

Obviously, Teresa said it was better not to use this force as much as possible. She warned that the continued use of this power might break the thread of fate.

 

However, she advises Charlotte to use this power for Theo’s sake and avoid the “powerful force”.

 

How big is this “powerful force”?

 

If Theo ran out of mana, it might require as much strength as in a martial arts competition.

 

So, will it harm my body?

 

Can I use this power like this?

 

Wouldn’t it be better to wait for Sir Randru to rescue Theo?

 

If I thought about it rationally, it could have been even better. If this fire starts from Theo, Theo will still be fine, and Randru will get there in time, too.

 

‘But….’

 

Charlotte remembered the crying baby inside, looking for Carcel and her.

 

Theo, whose birthday had recently passed, was only four years old. Could it be said that Theo was unharmed simply because he was uninjured?

 

The little boy must be crying in the midst of the flames for his older sister and older brother, who does not come, no matter how loud his call is.

 

Charlotte clenched her fists.

 

‘This is not acceptable.’

 

Then I made a firm commitment.

 

Theo’s safety was more important than Teresa’s vague words.

 

Even if something happened to her because of this accident.

 

She took her steps towards the door with a gloomy look on her face.

 

Then, she began to dispel the flames that had grown around her and Carcel. In the room where red flames were billowing everywhere, there was no energy of fire around them as if only the two of them were surrounded by a barrier.

 

“Did you see that? I told you I could.”

 

Charlotte deliberately spoke out loud. But she couldn’t hide her trembling voice.

 

He noticed, so Carcel grabbed her hand. Warmth passed from hand to hand. Although it was hot because all sides were ablaze with flames, I could feel that the hand that touched it was even hotter.

 

I don’t even know where Theo is. But he was definitely taking a nap, so he must have been near the bed.

 

Charlotte thought about the structure of Theo’s room and headed for the bed. That was when she was halfway across the room.

 

“Heck, Brother, Sister, where are you? Theo is scared.”

 

A sad child’s cry was heard. Carcel and Charlotte looked at each other and then ran toward the sound.

 

“Brother! heck.”

 

When they finally make it to bed, the two find Theo crying on the bed.

 

Fortunately, there was no fire in the bed with the child. Thanks to that, Theo was not hurt, but the child was trembling. Seeing him was heart-wrenching.

 

Charlotte grabbed Carcel’s hand and ran to Theo.

 

“Theo!”

 

Hearing Charlotte’s voice, Theo raised his head. After making sure that his brother and sister had arrived, the child burst into tears.

 

“Ah!Sister!”

 

When Carcel entered the safe zone, Charlotte picked up the blanket and ran to Theo. She covered the baby’s body with a blanket and held the shivering baby tightly in her arms.

 

Theo buried his face on her chest as if he didn’t want to see the fire anymore. The hand that held Charlotte’s clothes trembled violently.

 

“Sister! I missed you!”

 

Charlotte patted the baby on the back, trying to hold back her tears.

 

“Everything is fine now. Brother and sister are here.”

 

“Huh.”

 

“Thank you for holding on, Theo. Well done, you did a great job.”

 

In the end, tears that I couldn’t hold back burst out. Like Theo, Charlotte cried sadly and buried her face on the baby’s head.

 

I thought it would be okay, but it was actually very scary.

 

Ahin said it was a fire set by Theo. But what if someone else targeted Theo? What if Theo couldn’t reply on time because he was asleep?

 

What if I never see this child’s bright smile again?

 

I was afraid, but I tried to squeeze out the negative thoughts.

 

However, when I saw Teo, who was doing just fine without a burning place, the tension subsided and my emotions exploded.

 

At that time, I felt that someone was hugging me from behind. Carcel was.

 

“Everything is okay now .”

 

muttered to Theo.

 

“you are fine now .”

 

And this time, it was the word for Charlotte.

 

“Theo is safe.”

 

His voice sounded damp, too. He wasn’t visible, but Charlotte knew he was crying, too.

 

I was worried, but Theo is fine now. So what I had to do now is not just cry here, but end this whole situation.

 

If this was Theo’s fire magic, it would be resolved by calming Theo’s mana.

 

Charlotte focused on calming the mana, which was running through Theo’s body.

 

It wasn’t easy. Normally, Theo’s mana calmed down quickly just by hugging him. But now, even though I intentionally tried to suppress the mana, the mana kept escaping.

 

As if someone had tampered with Theo’s mana.

 

“Please….”

 

Charlotte gritted her teeth and focused. I felt dizzy and nauseous as I did when Theo helped me forcefully release my mana. Cold sweat flowed down my forehead and back, and my eyes became cloudy.

 

Will I be able to do that? Isn’t it better to keep strong and hold on until Randru comes along?

 

In a moment of doubt, Carcel covered the back of the hand that was holding Theo.

 

As if he noticed her struggle and added some strength to her.

 

At that moment, intangible energy came onto the back of my hand.

 

Charlotte intuitively noticed that it was Carcel’s mana . As the mana spread across her body, the dizziness and nausea stopped, and the foggy mind cleared again.

 

Charlotte focused on putting pressure on Theo’s magic power with Carcel’s mana and energy.

 

Theo’s mana, which had been shooting out uncontrollably until earlier, slowly began to reduce in size.

 

‘little more !’

 

Finally, the moment Theo’s mana was completely suppressed, the flames blazing around him vanished as if they had never been ignited before in an instant.

 

At the same time, Theo fainted as if exhausted, and dangled in Charlotte’s arms.

 

Charlotte hugged Theo tightly and looked around.

 

The room, which was decorated to suit Theo’s taste, is destroyed. It was completely burnt, and only ashes remained, and the walls were tanned.

 

Only the bed Theo was sitting in was the only thing that didn’t burn.

 

It was a disastrous scene, but Charlotte was no longer afraid or sad. Theo in her arms was fine.

 

She smiled helplessly as she looked at Carcel, who was still hugging her.

 

“It’s a relief that Theo is safe.”

 

“All thanks to you .”

 

Carcel whispered softly and put his head on her shoulder.

 

“Thank you for keeping Theo safe.”

 

Charlotte barely responded because of his breath falling on her neck.

 

“I was able to do it thanks to you, Carcel.”

 

It was true. The amount of mana that had entered the body earlier was much greater than the amount of mana it had dealt with before.

 

Carcel was originally Rosito.

 

But how could Carcel freely use the sealed mana? In addition, he didn’t seem to know what he had done.

 

‘I’ll find out later.’

 

Let’s focus on Theo now. Charlotte thought so and got up, hugging Theo.

 

I will put the baby to sleep in my room instead of this burning room.

 

***

 

“Did you fail again this time?”

 

The servant shivered from the man’s whisper.

 

A few days ago, he had witnessed with his own eyes how his colleague had died and was terrified of what could happen soon.

 

“I gave away a magic stone that’s hard to find, but you failed.”

 

“I’m sorry! It wasn’t expected at all.”

 

But it was strange today. There wasn’t much of a reaction from the man who had eliminated his teammate the previous time.

 

Thinking about it, his voice asking about the failure was not contained in anger but rather in curiosity and joy.

 

He flicked his fingers at the crystal ball on the table.

 

Obviously, the knight named Heather was definitely dead, I saw his funeral so he probably wouldn’t be alive.

 

But why did this plan not work?

 

This time, the man touched the glass ball on the table and provided it with mana. Three people now appeared in front of him.

 

A blonde woman holds a golden-haired baby, and a black-haired man hugs her shoulders.

 

The baby would be Theodore Heinst, and the man with black hair would definitely be Carcel Heinst. But who is that woman?

 

“Uh, is she Duke Heinst’s fiancée?”

 

The blonde-haired man muttered the name he had heard before.

 

Charlotte Lannia. That was the name, of course. He wondered why Duke Heinst, who had no interest in women, had suddenly brought his fiancée.

 

“Is she the destined person?”

 

The man slowly touched his chin, and after a moment his eyes lit up.

 

“Oh, this is gonna be fun.”
