Helmut: The Forsaken Child - Chapter 242

Helmut

Episode 242

‘Are you really my brother?’

It was like that from the moment we first met. Michael was attracted to Hyde.

It wasn’t because I felt he was strong, but I think I desperately wanted to keep him by my side.

It was an obsession similar to the one I felt for Charlotte.

Michael knew very well what his desires were. Because there was no one more faithful to his desires.

He suffered from illness and was close to death. If he had not had the desire to achieve something, he would not have survived the persistent pain.

Michael realized that he still wanted to keep Helmut, rather than Hyde, under him.

It was a possessiveness that was hard to ignore.

It doesn’t matter whether the attraction is blood-related or not. It made him think differently.

‘Yes, anyway, illegitimacy or collateral cannot threaten my position.’

Even if Grand Duke Rinosa likes Helmut, he is someone who will not make a choice that would betray his ancestors and shake up his lineage.

Regardless of skill or talent, the only person who could become Rinosa’s successor was the son of a master.

It was a principle that had been followed for generations, and Grand Duke Rinosa was not one to make choices that went against that principle.

‘No matter what I have in mind, I will make it according to my will. ‘In the first place, taming a wild horse is difficult.’

Michael has faithfully fulfilled his role as successor.

Even though he cannot wield a sword, even the picky archduke cannot deny the fact that he is the most suitable to become the archduke of Rinosa.

There was a feeling that something was off in this place lined with portraits, but Michael shook off that feeling.

“Are you finished talking?”

Helmut responded indifferently. Even to Helmut, Michael was a strange being.

Even though I wanted to crush the arrogant person in front of me, I didn’t want to kill him.

Helmut was a personality accustomed to the law of the jungle, having a hard time tolerating the weak climbing on him.

And the Michael in front of me was weak to the point of insignificance.

Whether it comes with an escort or not, you can kill it with just your little finger. No one will be able to stop it.

But strangely enough, I didn’t want to do that. Even though I think it’s annoying, I somehow come to accept it little by little.

I had a feeling that he would still be like that now that he had become a disruptor.

Is it because I was bullied so much by guys like Asuka and Xian?

‘I’ve also become more patient.’

As Darian said, life at the academy made Helmut a human being.

I felt that his arrangement was right.

Even though he was an eccentric and violent old man, he had an eye for insight.

Michael smiled with a bright face.

“I hope to see you often in the future.”

And he added:

“It will happen.”

Michael left the place with that arrogant declaration.

Helmut looked again at the empty spot in the portrait with indifferent eyes and moved his feet.

Magritte frowned.

‘I can’t believe Michael appears.’

The moment he heard Michael’s voice, Marguerite was startled.

Michael was an overly bright child. He might have noticed something. What you shouldn’t know.

Magritte was concerned about that. It was a truth that was not revealed even to the soft-spoken Charlotte.

Magritte was a nobleman and the Grand Duchess of Linosa.

Even though they were my beloved children, I couldn’t just trust them and tell them everything.

Magritte left the scene with a calm smile and returned to his living quarters, lost in thought.

My heart was beating fast.

‘It has a mark.’

There was a memory that flashed through my mind for a moment.

Charlotte said to Marguerite: Helmut knew the name ‘Marguerite Irein’.

At that time, something suddenly occurred to me. Pendant with maiden name written on it.

When Magritte passed away his first child, he hung it around his neck as a final gift.

With the hope that there will be blessings on the way.

However, the child was sent to the forest of Pahe, and the pendant made for the first child was sent with the child to a place from which it would never return.

It was a foregone conclusion.

‘No, that’s nonsense. Nothing like that has ever happened in history. ‘It’s impossible.’

Magritte muttered to himself. However, skepticism and doubt filled her as she denied it.

What if there was some mistake? What if the temple made a mistake? What if their sacred magic wasn’t intact and they sent him somewhere else?

So, if the child was lucky enough to survive…

Helmut had great talent.

A child born with the sprouts of darkness will have a cruel mentality even though he may show outstanding talent at an early age.

And finally, it runs wild and becomes a monster.

But Helmut seemed sane. On the contrary, he seemed very calm and cool.

He didn’t even hurt my sister.

Rather than showing his murderous intent to other contestants, he decided the match calmly.

Helmut did not try to show his strength by trampling on his opponent.

Marguerite, who had been pacing around the room, raised his head. The blue eyes were filled with a determined light.

‘I need to see her again.’

The more we met, the clearer it became, and the more we met, the more shaken it became.

Even though I thought it was nonsense and wondered if that suspicious boy who inherited Rinosa’s blood might be playing a trick, none of those thoughts took precedence over the pull of my instincts.

As Magritte, not the Grand Duchess of Linosa, she decided not to hesitate any longer.

*

It was late at night. Helmut was swinging his sword.

He did not neglect his training here either. This is because he knows that the cause and outcome of everything depends on his own strength.

The idea that I had to become strong did not fade away even after coming to the land where I was born.

As long as the temple exists, he must have been a forged sword, but even if the temple does not exist, Helmut will continue to live as he has lived.

To become stronger. He was a prosecutor and black was his life. It’s not going to happen that you let go of it.

Helmut has been training with a real sword these days, not a wooden sword.

I was now familiar with the sword I bought in Latona and was able to use it comfortably.

Even though it wasn’t as good as Darian’s sword, I liked it quite a bit. This camouflage too.

‘Did Michael notice something?’

It bothers me that he suddenly changed his attitude.

Anyway, although Michael said he was going to bother him, it wasn’t something that would happen right away.

The personal training center was lonely. It was a place that was connected to the room by a staircase and could not be entered or exited.

The door leading outside is locked. Linosa gives preference to prosecutors.

Therefore, a place with a private training room was prepared specifically for the inspection.

‘Let’s go in quickly.’

For some reason, I was distraught. Even though I consciously focused on it, I don’t think it would achieve much results.

These days, Area also declared diving and didn’t talk to me, so I didn’t have much to do.

However, the moment he was about to move, he felt a noise coming from the door leading to the outside.

It was the sound of small footsteps. But Helmut stopped in shock.

It was a sound of footsteps I hadn’t heard many times, but it was familiar to my ears. It sounded as loud as thunder.

As if possessed, Helmut turned his gaze in that direction.

Creak. The lock opened and the door moved. The long skirt went inside first.

The blonde hair was dazzling under the light. The elegant lady soon appeared.

Instead of the fancy dress she usually wore, she wore something close to everyday clothes. As if I had escaped for a moment.

The door closed behind her.

Helmut, who was frozen, gave a brief greeting.

“Meeting Her Highness the Grand Duchess.”

I can’t believe you came to visit me at a time like this. It was uncharacteristic of her to be cautious and prudent. There must have been something you wanted to check.

My heart beat faster.

However, like Helmut, who remained calm on the outside, her colors were also calm.

Magritte spoke calmly.

“I heard that they practice at this time every day.”

Attendants come and go from Helmut’s room from time to time. Since they are outsiders, there may be a purpose of surveillance.

Helmut usually told his attendant when he came down to practice his sword.

“yes.”

“I don’t have much time, so… I want to ask you something. “Can you answer me?”

Magritte did not hesitate to get straight to the point.

The time that Grand Duchess Rinosa can move without being discovered is not long.

She came here carefully so that no one would notice.

Helmut nodded.

“Ask a question.”

“Could you show me the mark you mentioned earlier?”

“yes.”

Magritte did not explain why, and Helmut did not ask. He just moved.

I walked over to the cloak placed on one side of the training room and rummaged through my pockets. A golden object was pulled out of his hand.

Magritte’s eyes trembled like the surface of water as he looked at the pendant with a distorted surface.

As if something was caught in the web of memories.

“This is it.”

Magritte snatched the pendant with trembling hands.

The lid opened and she saw herself drawn inside. As soon as my mind recognized it, my hands became weak.

bang! The pendant that fell to the floor resonated heavily in the air.

Marguerite was now shaking all over. The gaze that had been focused on the pendant lifted upward.

A voice overflowing with all kinds of emotions came out of her mouth.

“Helmut.”

She let out a moan and stretched out her hands into the air.

Helmut hugged his mother who hugged him. The embrace inside the warlock was hot.

No, it wasn’t her that was hot. My stomach felt like it was burning.

“Helmut.”

My mother called again in a sobbing voice. Her returning child.

she was crying My shoulder, covered in tears, was warm.

It seemed like there was a dawn. Helmut felt as if he had lived for this moment.

Area’s warning was forgotten, and Helmut realized that he had no choice but to end up like this.

It was decided from the moment I decided to come to Linosa, or rather, from the moment I saw my mother.

If I have to pay a price at this moment, I will pay it willingly.

That was his determination and determination.
