I Accidentally Saved The Male Lead's Brother

Chapter 1

Charlotte hid behind Cesar, the knight who followed her from behind as she walked through the forest, and stared blankly at the child.

The child, who looked around the age of three or four, was left alone in the forest without any family member or servant.

"Big brother, where is he?"

Why is a child alone in the forest? Did you walk alone and end up here after losing contact with your parents?

Normally, she would've thought so and would try to find the child's family.

However, Charlotte didn't give Cesar any order...

'....Blood?'

It was because of the dark, red blood soaked in the child's clothes.

It wasn't only present in his clothes. There was blood on the child's golden hair and plump cheeks as well.

Cesar, who was on guard and had his sword pulled out, only watched the child walk around at the unexpected sight.

The child kept looking around, poking his chubby cheeks as though he was about to burst into tears.

"Pulled, tied. Big brother."

Upon noticing Charlotte and Cesar, he curled up like a frightened squirrel.

But he only stayed that way shortly after blinking a few times and looking around.

Soon after, he began to tread carefully towards the two.

"Sir Cesar."

At Charlotte's call, Cesar sensibly hid his sword.

They lowered down their guard knowing that even if someone with a sword were to suddenly appear from behind the child's back, Cesar could still respond quickly.

He excelled in handling swords, enough to be noticed in the capital. Among his many advantages, the biggest one he had was his speed in detection.

The child, who had come close to Cesar, faltered once more when he saw him.

Charlotte stepped forward and came close to him, wondering if he was now relieved.

The child, who was looking up at Charlotte, had an expression that seemed to be asking, 'Older sister, did you see my brother?'.

If he had looked at her with that expression at another time, she would have thought he looked lovely and cute, however, his blood-stained clothes, hair, and cheeks made him look rather cold instead.

The child, who had been looking up at her for a long time, sat on the floor and began to sob when he didn't get the answer he wanted.

"Brother."

Upon hearing the child crying, Charlotte was brought back to her senses.

"Are you all right, baby?"

She approached the child despite Cesar's dissuasion.

"Where's your brother?"

The child answered breathlessly.

"I don't know where older brother is now. He was over there earlier."

The child raised his hand and pointed to the bush from which he had come out.

'Older brother?'

The child's pronunciation was so unclear that Charlotte could not understand his words properly.

But I could see that something had happened at the place where he had pointed his finger at.

Charlotte was taking a walk in a small forest in Baron Rania's territory located in the north.
