Castle of the dead 5

" But who would have thought that you would be a court adventure big brother"

" you being one is an even more shocking factor wil. I am very proud of you" my brother said as he gave me a proud smile, I'm very happy!, I've always seen my brother as a great person. He's always doing things his own way that's exactly why I was shocked that he became a court adventurer.

"SKWAAAAA!!!!!.." viper ( Alberts familiar ) was screaming and running away from Chun who was trying to bite him? " Chun what are you doing!?" Al asked as viper went inside Al's shirt sleeve to hide from Chun.

"Playing tag !!" Chun exclaimed excitedly. "Oh god, Chun you are totally scaring him! If this goes on you would end up as the evil dragon and not the mighty lion" Chun's expression was so funny although I feel bad for mocking her dream.

" But you always play tag with little kids back home wil" Chun protested " you see Chun viper is too young for that" Al explained, " just how old is he?" I asked "he's 2" " just 2. !?"

"Yep and Chun may I borrow your ribbon," Al said, " sure Al!" She said as she showed him her tail, he removed it from her tail and tied it to viper " she's scwary helsp me ( she's scary help me )" viper cried to my brother, of course, I didn't understand a word my brother translated for me.

Al talked to Viper. calming him down and putting him to sleep along with Chun, just like he did in the past with me and Chun "if you want me to put you to sleep too, all you have to do is ask"

" What no" why is he like this, seriously "but you want to ask something, go on" well big brother is as sharp as always "I have been thinking whether I am raising Chun correctly or not, I mean she's too small"

" wil come here" he put Viper who was sleeping on his lap down and opened his arms offering me a hug. I took his offer " listen has Chun grown a little faster after leaving our hometown?" I nodded. he started patting my head.

" why do you think the capital is located in the southernmost part of the country despite it being the border? Our hometown is the farthest away from Feririn ( beast empire ) mana that is produced by beast-men are essential to use magic does it make sense now?"

Of course, it all makes sense now "Chun needs to be in a mana-rich environment to grow!" " exactly! And I understand how you feel. When I first got Viper's egg I was so nervous wether he would hatch? Will he be healthy? but when he hatched I was so happy I couldn't stop crying. Then I had this made"

He pulled out a silver pendant shaped like an occamy " it's made from vipers eggshell" my brother was smiling like mom. He resembles her so much.

"I am disappointed in you you didn't bother to write about so many important things" I am mad at him for this "I wanted them to be surprising for when I come home" he defended " well whatever let's sleep"
