That night, Modric had secretly thrown a huge party and invited as many nobles as possible.
The purpose was to congratulate Ash on his victorious return, say goodbye before he entered the Academy, and congratulate him for being less useless than before.
And of course, Ash - the main character of this party - had no idea that this would happen.
At that ti, he was lying on the bed when Gilbert suddenly ca in, without saying a word, just dragged him away like an emotionless object, straight to the place where the party was taking place - the Royal Garden.
When he arrived, everyone else was already enjoying the party, no one paid any attention to his appearance.
Ash was like an invisible person, not worth paying attention to although he was clearly the main character of this party...
Oh well, he didn't really care about that since he didn't know them anyway. Therefore, he didn't care if he didn't get much attention from them.
Feeling like he didn't belong here, Ash quickly took a moderate amount of food, headed to a deserted place, and enjoyed his al in silence and solitude.
But this was enough for Ash.
He planned to finish his al quickly and return to his tower, but it seed like the world wouldn't allow him to do so this ti.
The noisy crowd in front suddenly beca silent, as if they were muted, and slowly split into two, creating a path in the middle.
This strangeness naturally attracted Ash's attention. And as he looked over there, trying to figure out what was going on...
...Ash was so shocked that he almost dropped his plate of food when he saw the First Prince - Barry "Mighty" Voidveil - along with Modric "Genius" Voidveil striding towards him.
Both of them didn't show much expression, but he could almost guess what was going to happen.
First Prince Barry, a man in his late 30s with ticulously grood black hair typical of the Royal Family, wearing a blood red suit, making him stand out the most in the crowd, suddenly sped towards Ash.
"Youngest brother!!!"
Then, before Ash had the chance to do anything, Barry quickly locked him in a passionate hug.
But that wasn't all as he also intended to kiss him a few tis like a father kissing his baby. But luckily, this ti, Ash reacted in ti to avoid further humiliation.
"Wait, big brother! That's enough! Let go! It's so annoying!"
It was true that his words had prevented him from receiving those passionate kisses, but Barry still had no intention of letting him go.
"I missed you so much, you know?"
"Do you know how worried I was when I heard that you had to go to the battlefield?"
"I just wanted to leave all my duties behind to run to help you!"
anwhile, Ash was still trying to squirm so that he wouldn't die from suffocation from the First Prince's overly enthusiastic hug.
***
He was surprised, of course he was surprised because both the Second Prince and the First Prince were so different from what he saw when he was a strear.
In False Horizon, both Barry and Modric were cold people, not friendly at all. It was as if they didn't want to interact with anyone.
Both of them always had gloomy eyes, but for the sake of the Voidveil Empire, they still had to act trustworthy.
And it was only when he was reincarnated into the body of the Third Prince of the Empire that Ash gradually understood what the hell had happened and why the First Prince and Second Prince in the ga were so different from the present.
If he had to explain it in a nutshell, it would be that those two loved their younger brother very much.
And their case was exactly the sa as Furina Faelan's.
After learning that Ash "Worthless" Voidveil had died on the battlefield, they completely changed, becoming like what he saw in the ga.
Perhaps both of them could not bear this great shock. They had not only lost a mother but also a younger brother.
How sad.
And Ash, even in his dreams, could not imagine that being reincarnated into The Useless Prince's body could change so many characters.
But even so, he still had to escape from this warm embrace first.
"Let go of , big brother! I can't breathe!" Ash started to pretend.
Fortunately, because Barry was soone who cared a lot about his younger brother, he imdiately let go of him and carefully put him on the ground.
"Thank you." Ash said gently.
"How have you been recently, Ash? Were you injured on the battlefield? Are you tired?"
He was attacked by a series of consecutive questions from the First Prince, completely not giving him a chance to escape.
"I'm fine, it was pretty tough on the battlefield, but I think I'm a little more used to it now. But wait, why are you here? I thought you were dealing with the Mahi Kingdom in the East?"
"So what?" Barry just replied indifferently, leaving Ash unable to understand what the hell the First Prince was thinking.
As the commander of the Eastern Front, he wasn't there to continue his duties.
Ash really didn't know if it was because of a lack of responsibility or what.
"If you're worried, then it's fine. The Mahi Kingdom is about to be destroyed, so I'm not that busy."
"..."
"And when I heard that my little brother had destroyed the remnants of the Ur Kingdom, how could a big brother like not co back to congratulate you?"
"If that's the case, I really appreciate your kindness, big brother." Ash bowed his head, looking truly grateful.
"Oh, right, I also bought you a present, and I left it in your tower. So when this party is over, check it out! You'll definitely like it!"
After saying that, Barry "Mighty" Voidveil once again returned to the party and chatted with the other nobles.
He was a friendly and sociable person, completely different from his image in the ga.
"Big brother is really noisy, right?" The one who said that was Modric, but it didn't sound like a complaint at all.
"That's right."
"...Are you enjoying the party?"
"It's okay. Almost no one is paying attention to , but that's fine. Oh right, thank you for organizing this party for , brother."
"If you don't like it, you can leave anyti."
"Alright I will."
"Well, I'm going now, you just continue eating, okay? If you need anything, just call or Gilbert." With that, Modric walked towards the crowd, joining the conversation with the First Prince.
Ash stood there watching them for a long ti, not forgetting to continue eating his food to fill his empty stomach.
To be honest, he had thought that Modric and Barry would hate and despise him, but it turned out to be the opposite.
The love they had for the Third Prince was truly great. So great that no words could describe it.
