He’s My Real Brother, Duke

oticed that I’m wary?

However, the Duke’s expression was still subtle enough to make it difficult to understand.

 

“You’ll hear amazing words soon.” 

 

“… … Yes?”

 

Even to my question, he didn’t answer any more and looked away.

Even that was a very elegant attitude that brought admiration.

 

Anyway, what will I be surprised at? My head was filled with question marks.

 

Is it because the Duke Castle is so beautiful?

Or is it because of discrimination by prisoners?

 

However, it was a fact that I had already felt and prepared firmly after working in the treatment center for over three years.

 

I carefully calculated the contents of the original, learned healing techniques, and entered the North.

 

For three years, I worked at a treatment center with an effort to cut bones, and I collected information about the Shapeshifters in my spare time.

 

So, it won’t be surprising when I enter Duke Castle.

 

“Don’t worry． It’s the first time I’ve ever had a mountain war, and I’ve been through it all!”

 

I was confident.

I assured him that I would unveil at some point what would happen.

After going through everything, as much as my heart could take, almost like a grandmother’s, Is it the level of an Old Man?

 

“Are you serious?”

“Yes, it is!”

 

He stared at me again.
There was a strange heat in his eyes.

 

“I’m curious if you’re in good shape right now.”

 

“..…Yeah?”

 

“My heart must be full and feverish.”

His hand touched mine.

 

Even though it was only that, the corner of the chest where the dull pain was throbbing became comfortable and my body became cool after the warmth from the touch came up.

 

As a healer, my gut tells me that this is obviously a bad sign.

 

“It will be comfortable now.”

 

I was surprised and opened my mouth slightly.

Unlike me, who tilts my head, he noticed something and put a sweet candy in my open mouth.

 

“So I told you to relax,”

……I thought it would be bitter if it was the candy The Duke carries.

It tastes like strawberries… … ?

 

Before I even rolled it in my mouth a few times, he looked satisfied with me, who had swallowed the candy.

 

As soon as his hand fell, I closed my eyes tightly.

The moment the eyelids were closed,it came as if fainting.

 

                  *    *    *

 

“Well, does that make sense?”

 

Unsurprisingly, I was very surprised by the serious commitment I had earlier, my mouth was wide open.

As soon as I arrived at Duke Castle, I expected to discuss the reward.

 

However, the Duke Anais woke me up from sleep, feeling tired he put me straight to the Head doctor of the Duchy.

 

This is the result after that.

 

“There, there is an imprint!”

Engraving was a kind of “ancient magic” that existed among the Shapeshifters long ago.

 

The exact name is ‘An Imprint of Companion’.

 

Imprinting symptoms varied from mild fever to heart attack, so it was difficult to diagnose in random cases.

  

 

But one thing was certain.

 

Usually there is power only between the ‘hand and hand’ contact,and it is extremely rare that it is engraved between a human and a Shapeshifter.

 

In order to hold a ritual of swearing eternal love between men and women, most of them used magic with the consent of the two.

 

This is a ritual that has almost disappeared in recent years.

 

Of course, if you look back on the contents of the book I read in the past to study healing, There are rare cases where the imprint is suddenly engraved for no reason like us now.

 

‘What’s important is the effect of my companion’s imprint on me.’

 

Regardless of how it was engraved, once it was engraved……

 

The two become a ‘companion of destiny’ during the imprinting period.

Beyond sharing each other’s pain, when one dies, the other dies.

In other words, in the imprinted relationship, each other becomes each other’s fatal weakness.

 

“I was also surprised.”

 

The Duke said with an expression that did not look surprised at all.

‘How can you say that you are surprised at this situation? with a face that is not surprised at all’

 

As soon as his words were over, the Old Library of the Duke of Anais was frozen.

The Duke’s personal physician, who was sitting across from me and the Duke of Anais, replied with a look of death.

 

“The specific diagnosis is ‘temporary imprint of unknown cause’.”

 

Temporary engraving.

Besides, it doesn’t make sense to do the ritual together?

 

“Oh, this is really nonsense… ..”

 

What the hell is going on?

 

The doctor’s eyes wide open, staring at me in confusion.
