First Of All, Lets Hide My Younger Brother

Chapter 44

It's been a year and a half since Franz left to study at Oculus. I was 19 years old before I realized it, and I'm currently in the 7th grade. I am now responding to Franz's letter.

[Hello, Franz.

I'm glad you're doing well. Our parents are very upset because they can't see our faces and are very sad about it.

Besides, I can't visit you because the Troisin area you're in is too far away. We're both very busy. That's why I try to contact you more often. And you...]

I stopped writing for a moment. I didn't come home myself, so I couldn't lecture Franz here.

I miss every minute and second to finish the Academy early! From school to training, I had too much to do.

As I told Aster, I only went back to Westaren for the holidays. The same goes for weekends. I was only training and studying, and that was something I could do all the time because Frantz wasn't doing anything that would make me worry.

Franz no longer needed my help as soon as he entered the Oculus Boarding Academy. This was because Franz had started to enjoy training with Shitsuro, even though it was difficult for him to return home due to his distant location of the academy.

[Sister, although I'm still trying to master Shitsuro, I still have a connection with Shitsuro. It lets me know where the attack is coming from.]

Franz began to feel confident and attached to Shitsuro, who moves as he likes.

I looked at the back of my right hand. The small piece of sword drawn on the skin looked like a tattoo.

However, unlike Franz, Schuette and I did not show any emotional attachments. Schuette only answered my call once.

It was two years ago when the Blood Demon attacked Berg Station, with blood eating away at everything, and it couldn't be stabbed with a normal sword, Schuette answered my call.

"Too bad it's not a wooden sword."

Without thinking twice, Schuette transformed into a wooden sword. I was better with a wooden sword, but it was useless when I had to stab someone. Schuette hasn't returned to his sword form since. Now it's just a destructive blunt instrument.

However, a Chouette is a Chouette, so I always took it when I went on a monster slaying mission. This was because it increased my muscle strength, endurance, and speed.

I shook my head and turned my attention back to the letter. Now is not the time. I have to nag Franz, who currently lives at the Oculus Boarding Academy. That's because Franz's life at the Boarding Academy in Oculus was a bit of a problem.

"I'm so glad you're doing well in Oculus, but…"

By the time Franz first arrived at Oculus last year, he must have been very confused because there were no boys in sight in the dorm. Franz's letter showed some embarrassment.

[Sister, it wasn't that long ago that this was a girls' school. I have heard that starting from this semester, the training system has been replaced with a joint one. Maybe that's why there are so many girls here.]

Currently, the school is registered by the Ministry of Education as a co-educational Boarding Academy. So it was officially a coeducational school.
