The Im Not Main Character
Family Discussion

The day after that Shin finally arrived at the Religious region. Regardless of the situation of the East Port that needs improvement and cannot be ignored, it is amazing that he can abandon his responsibilities.

Perhaps more precisely it was because he had already given long instructions and had great accomplices. Shin was great at assessing one's abilities and potential.

Even so Arcturus still questioned why Shin had such high hopes for trash.

“Kak Shin! Look I have a new friend!”

Spica who was hugging her two rabbits cheerfully ran towards Shin to show him off.

Shin looked at her with interest and surprise.

“Ho? What two rabbits can do great things?”

As expected, this person could see any potential. Arcturus had been suspicious since his previous life about Shin.

‘Do these bastards secretly have Ancient Determination? The observation is crazy.’

It's a pity that people seem to have to die in the early half of the novel. He's a capable man who can help this country in the coming war. Arcturus will not let anything bad happen to him.

“Dad, Mom, I'm home. Then my sisters, I came home.” Shin greeted his parents and brother with a smile.

“Welcome, brother.” Arcturus and Evelyn said simultaneously.

“Yes, I've heard what happened in East Port. Thank goodness you're okay.” Alvalous looked completely relieved and his firm face was now completely softened.

After the brief greeting, Shin gathered them in the living room to talk about something. Arcturus did not know what Shin had planned, but at least he was sure it was related to that.

All the families are here except Spica who plays in the park. He was too young to understand this conversation.

“My arrival here was just to discuss the Moon Banquet. Sorry to disappoint my Mom and Dad's wishes, but I was unable to attend the event.”

Alvalous and Lyura were only slightly stunned, they seemed to have expected it.

“The East Port was destroyed in such a way that it took time to recover. As the one who was assigned the kingdom to watch over him while there was no leader in the region, I cannot leave him.”

“Well, it makes sense for sister not to attend,” Evelyn said with concern.

That's a reasonable reason not to attend. Shin was one of the young candidates for the royal chief strategy candidate, he was ordered to oversee the Eastern Port.

It was a heavy responsibility that the government had given him. It was clear about what needed for Shin to prioritize.

‘But it was in vain. Shin, you should know that reason does not give good results.’ Arcturus closed his eyes while silently listening.

“Therefore I want Arcturus to replace me to go.”

“What?!” Lyura and Evelyn flinched from her chair.

“Dad, you know best how far this son of yours is. I judge that Arcturus who now deserves to attend the event.”

“That can't happen! Shin! You should know how bad his behavior is!” Lyura raised her vocal cords and looked at Arcturus with hatred.

Shin became flat, but Arcturus could see him a little irritated.

“Mother, you should know that lately Arcturus has not done anything shameful. Everyone can change, even my sister Arc is no exception.”

“Even if big brother is right, there is no guarantee this brat will not cause any problems! Religious Name at stake here!” Evelyn called for opposition.

“Evelyn's right, my son. Besides her, Evelyn far has the qualifications to attend!”

Of course Arcturus knows. If where Shin resigned to attend the event, then who would replace him was definitely Evelyn.

From the beginning Arcturus was never one of the candidates who would represent the Religion. The Lunar Supper is only held once every few years. Missing it would be very detrimental.

“Stop.”

Alvalous immediately spoke before Lyura became outrageous.

Arcturus who was used to any ridicule still seemed relaxed. However he saw the calm Shin, but clenched his fists firmly.

“Nak, can you explain why you wanted Arcturus to attend?”

Shin nodded, “First, both me and Evelyn have attended the Moon Banquet. We already have wide connections and acquaintances in the same generation with us.”

Although both Shin and Evelyn were able to attend again because they were not married yet, Shin felt unworthy. They will be the oldest there.

“Even if Arc has a bad record, hasn't he recently gotten better and better? Although it cannot be mentioned but he has a contribution in the East Port. I think this little brother needs experience.”

That's a perfectly logical and reasonable reason. His father also seemed to understand, but Arcturus suspected Shin was not really hoping this would work.

‘The real boss in this case is not Dad, but those two.’

“You have a point.” Alvalous understood Shin's logical reasoning.

“I won't accept it. Just because he's been good for some time doesn't mean Arcturus deserves it!” Lyura denied it out loud.

“Mother's right, Dad. Arcturus could have pretended to be good for the sake of attending the event! We never know what kind of stupid act he'll do!”

Arcturus cannot stand being continually denigrated. Finally he decided to speak.

“Sister Evelyn, I am well aware that my attitude has been bad. But do you know? No matter what my behavior, I've never touched a big man who could bring down Religion.”

Evelyn grimaced with a condescending look, “Hah! You just haven't had a chance to do it yet. When the opportunity arrives I'm sure you'll act silly!”

Arcturus wanted to give a rebuttal but Lyura did not give him a chance.

“You're just a lowly child of a valiant servant talk a lot? I'll tell you, your mother is just a lowly prostitute—”

“It's enough, Mom.” It was not Arcturus, but Shin who said.

The whole room became quiet because of it. Alvalous closed his eyes, if Shin did not stop him immediately then he himself would.

Shin started to take out two papers from his pocket. Arcturus looked at him curiously.

‘What are you trying to do?’

As if sensing Arcturus' gaze, Shin looked back at him and smiled. Arcturus was not sure but he seemed to know through his gaze that Shin said:

‘Do not disappoint me, Arcturus.’

It was ambiguous yet Arcturus was sure Shin actually said that in his gaze.

Immediately Shin threw the two papers onto the table.

“This is the official document of resignation being the candidate of the chief strategy of the kingdom of Knight.”

It shook Alvalous, Lyura and Evelyn. How not? It was the same as Shin throwing away his chance of shining.

Even Arcturus did not expect that. But he was more interested in other documents.

“Then the other is a document that shows evidence of embezzlement of money construction East Port. Surely, it was embezzlement done by me.”

Arcturus became very convinced by now that Shin was actually a completely insane person.
