"Where did you pick up the boy."
A girl who had long red hair and green eyes, stood intercepting Curran's steps.
"What did you say sister?"
Rosaly Crimson is a 16-year-old girl. The second son of the Crimson Duke, he had only graduated from the Royal Academy a year ago and would inherit the Duchy Crimson realm under his leadership.
She heard that her brother had come with a little boy to the residence.
Surprised? Sure oes.
Her brother is untouchable and keeps a distance from many people, even with his own family in order not to hurt them because of his ability to come by holding a child.
Rosaly needs to make sure with her own eyes the truth of it. That's why he's here.
"I asked where did you pick up the kid?"
Rosaly involuntarily raised her voice as her gaze fell on a pink-haired child sleeping on Curran's shoulder.
"Should I answer that here, sister?"
Curran asked in a pressure-filled tone.
He was not at all happy when his sister did such a reckless thing by asking that in front of the knights and servants who were watching them.
"Of course."
Curran bluffed his teeth and replied in a cold tone.
"I met him on the street."
"Who are his parents?"
"I'll be his parents."
"What's the boy's name?"
"Rein Crimson."
"so."
A smile appeared on her beautiful face.
"I think I'm gonna have a nephew."
Rosaly said with a smile that adorned her face.
"Soge away."
"Sure brother."
Rosaly gets off the road by Curran.
"Wait for your punishment sister."
Curran whispered as he passed through Rosaly.
"I'm looking forward to it big brother."
Rosaly answered calmly. She had already guessed what punishment her brother would give her. Maybe he'll be poisoned in his food.
The smiling face immediately erased into a flat face and stared intently at the knights of the Crimson Duke residence.
"Hear everything! From now on the Crimson Rein is part of this family. Put it in your brain and disperse."
"Ready My Lady."
Rosaly nodded in satisfaction with the response of the knights.
"Emma."
Rosaly called her personal servant.
"I'm facing the young lady."
Emma answered Rosaly's call by bending over her body slightly.
"What gift is suitable for my nephew?"
"What about the sword?"
"Hm."
Rosaly pondered the proposal of his ministry.

Curran lay Rein's body carefully, then looked at his peaceful face while asleep.
Tok to tok.
"Lake in."
The door opened and Mark was seen in the butler's clothes.
"I'm facing the young master."
"Say."
"You're called to the master's den right now."
Mark said with a calm tone and face.
"Mark's."
"Yes young master."
Mark immediately responded to a call from his young master.
"Just my son."
"I understand Young master."
Mark bent his body slightly to respond to the orders given.
Curran walked out of his room followed by Kendrick behind him.
"I hope that your presence brings happiness to young Lord Ran."
After saying what he wanted to say, he turned back out of the room and stood guard at the door.
[Master, you're alone now. ]
Rein opened his eyes after hearing Croft's voice confirming the surroundings.
"Damn it!" hiss Rein.
Actually, he was aware when he heard a loud voice from a girl who mentioned that she was at the collection, it happened thanks to the recovery ability he had made him quickly wake up from the sleeping spell he was given.
After that he pretended to still be under a sleeping spell to ascertain the state of the surroundings.
Croft has also explained the situation.
And in conclusion, this man named Curran has the ability to make himself unable to make physical contact with others or the person will experience burns.
But!! He asked a child to make physical contact with him who had just met in a few minutes.
"Shoppers! I'm gonna hit him in the head."
Rein said angrily but quietly. So that the servant at the door does not realize that he is awake.
[Master, you need to calm down. That guy is rich anyway. ]
Rein let out a long breath. He had already started to feel calm and had started to set a pace on what he was going to do.
[Master, we can ask him for a lot of money. So you don't have to work to get it. ]
It's true this guy named Curran is rich. Not to mention that he was already recognized as part of this family, even his servant wished for him.
Rein could have taken advantage of those three points. Unfortunately, he didn't want to do it.
He does not want to depend his life on others, let alone try to please someone to continue living.
She's tired.
Rein had already done that in his previous life, and did not want to do the same thing again.
In this life, Rein wanted to do what he wanted with his own effort and ability to survive.
In order for him to be thrown away one day, he does not need to crawl for mercy or be stabbed in the back.
"Croft."
[Yes Master. ]
"I don't want to depend on this family."
[I understand Master. ]
"But ... I'll make the most of it."
[ Hehe. ]
Rein saw the ball of light circling around him.
Rein had already made up his mind and what steps he would take.

Tok to tok.
"Dad, it's me Curran."
"Lake in."
After hearing the words from the direction of the room, Curran opened the door and closed it again.
There was a grown man in his 40s who still looked handsome.
Gilbert Crimson, a ruler of the Duchy Crimson region who guards the western region. Nearest to the capital of the Xinlaire Kingdom.
His long red hair looked shiny, his green netra was sharp. His burly body was wrapped in black clothes that displayed the figure of a tyrant.
"Dad called" Curran said.
Gilbert took the glasses that were attached to his face, and then put them away.
"Curran, are you sure of your decision?"
Gilbert immediately asked about Curran's decision to adopt a child. Of course, he would approve his son's decision.
Gilbert would do anything for the happiness of his son, for this was also due to his past negligent mistakes in guarding and protecting his son.
"I'm sure Dad."
Curran replied firmly, his decision was already unanimous and he was confident of it. She had already let go of her feelings to get married because it was impossible. So, he dedicated his life to protecting this Duchy territory from monsters.
However, unexpectedly he met a child who could come into physical contact without being injured. It made him confident that he could become a parent without having to relate to a woman.
So, he intends to adopt the child.
"Well, I'll make you an adoption letter."
"Thank you Dad."
"Curran, what's my grandson's name?"
"Rein Crimson."
"So, make sure you bring it to dinner."
"Good Dad."
"Curran."
Gilbert called out in a deep tone.
"Yes Dad," Curran replied calmly.
"Dad mint-"
