… Hyung, are you okay?”

That guy said. His side was ripped open and his guts were spilling out, and he was asking if I was okHe was on the verge of death yet his face was only a little pale. His calm look annoyed me. I sat on the floor and looked up at my brother without saying anythingHe was always interfering with my work. He was better than the dirty me, so people had always told me to stay put and behave, to not hold onto his thigh. They weren’t wrong to say that because eventually I had broken this big and reliable thigh.

However.

“……Why are you here?”

A blunt voice came out of my mouth on this old subject.

Why did you come to such a shit place for someone you don’t even know?We were anything but close. If we ever ran into each other, there would only be a cold breeze. When my leg bones had been shattered, he did not come to the hospital to see me even once. When I went to him to request for help to fix my broken leg, he coldly turned me down and had me dragged out. That day, after being kicked out I was forced to take the money he gave me. I have never talked to him ever since.

He laughed bitterly at my question.

“Why are you here, ****.”

Even though I thought he was the type of person who would bite the hand that feeds, a curse still emerged from my mouth. He had a lot of expectations on his shoulders but he still gave his life to save a useless family member. Crazy son of a bitch.Since when were we that friendly? If you’re dead and on the news, damn it, I’ll just swear a few times and then forget about it.

But what did you do?

I was angry. I was angry and irritated by my patheticness, not him.

Yes, I’ve always been an ugly older brother. Even in this situation, I’m still a person with a garbage brain filled with complaints and an inferiority complex.

So just let me die in a corner of a Dungeon! Why did you come?!

“Listen to me, hyung.”

That guy said, avoiding my question.

“Lauchitas falls asleep within five-hour cycles. If you hide for an hour, it will eventually go to sleep. Then you just have to get out through the entrance. I’ve taken care of all the lesser monsters so as long as you do not touch Lauchitas, you will be safe.”

He then held out a small blue stone to me. It was a gatestone that provided a way out of a closed dungeon. It can only be used near the entrance and is a very valuable item that could only be used one time by one person.

I did not take the gatestone and pretended to be uncaring.

“Good for you. Now use it.”

He laughed at my words.

“I’ve got mine. I won’t use this.”

…Now that you’re one of the best Hunters in Korea, you’re carrying several of those precious gatestones. I reluctantly accepted the gatestone.

It was only then that he took his eyes off me and looked at his wounds. Without the strength of his skills, he would have long collapsed and died.

“……You have gatestones, do you have anything like elixirs?”

“No, I don’t. I have a small potion, but I don’t think that’s going to work. Lauchitas has a powerful curse on its claws.”

He laughed again. I didn’t know how to laugh with him.

But that kind of calmness soon reached its limit. His knees bent and his body fell forward. I reflexively caught the upper half of his body.

The smell of blood that I hadn’t felt so far stung my nose. It was awful.

I thought I got used to the smell of blood as I walked around the dungeon but it brought me to my knees. I felt sick.

I was tempted to throw away the body in my arms and flee.

“……hey.”

I could hardly hear the sound of breathing.

There was no answer.

I couldn’t laugh.

“……are you dead?”

My voice was shaking. It’s none of my business whether this asshole dies or not.

“Han Yuhyun. Are you dead?”

Damn, this stupid son of a bitch. I’d be damned if I survived by myself. I’m sure that there were a lot of guys who would want to burn the scumbag who killed his younger brother.

“You’re going to screw with me to the end?”

I muttered in vain.

Up to this day, he’s been interrupting me in everything I do. It is now time to hide. Dirty to the end, really.

[Effect of ‘Caregiver’ title has been activated.

Caregiver’s Additional Skill — Final Reward

The skills and abilities of Awakened ‘Han Yuhyun’ have been transferred with twice the efficiency.

Duration — 01:00]

A notice popped up, confirming his death. As one of the Additional Skills of my title, when a target who had been given the growth buff died, the target’s skills and abilities can be transferred for one hour

It also doubled in power.

As his power filled my body, some of his memories were also passed on.

‘My brother is an F-Level Awakener.”

This son of a bitch even to the end—

‘So he cannot be involved with me.’

Yuhyun was talking to someone. He seemed a little sad.

‘It’s already damaged, but in the future we need to be even more distant. Because Awakeners who qualified to become Hunters are not protected by the law.’

‘If my brother becomes my weakness, they will no doubt go after him.’

…who the hell are they?

‘Damn it, dispose of all of those bastards!’

It was when my leg had been broken. He was angry. And then he was sad again.

‘No. Tell him… healing is not possible. It would be better for him. I kicked him out… But he’s still my brother, I cannot help but help him……’

‘Hyung, I’m sorry.’

‘Sorry…’

‘Please don’t go into the dungeon.’

‘Hyung.’

My brother’s memory tightened my throat. The entire area was silent, but the sound of “hyung” still hurt my ears. The body was cold and stiff.

I was going crazy.

As expected, this fellow had covered for me until the very end. What are you protecting me for? The older brother is me. I had lost my parents at an early age, dropped out of school, and took care of my younger brother, raising him.

“Damn him! Did he think I was going to regret this?”

It’s your fault that you didn’t say a word.

I carefully laid my younger brother’s body onto the floor. His face looked relaxed. If I leave alone, it would be the same as when I came in.

“I’m not going to cry.”

Until the end, that selfish guy just did whatever he wanted; why would I cry for him? It was a waste of tears.

I got up. When I looked at the status window, I saw the increased number of skills. They were all top quality, even the double buffs.

Laughter broke out.

Just one hour. For just an hour, I had become the strongest person in the world at the cost of my younger brother’s life.

“Damn it, what can you do with only one hour?”

It would be better for Han Yuhyun to be live longer for 40 or 50 more years. Even if Yuhyun became a grandfather, he would still be a lot stronger than me. How could it be compared to this one-time, one-hour presentation?

“Stupid bastard. That stupid fucking bastard.”

My brother’s stupidity brought tears to my eyes. The title of ‘genius’ was a waste on him. He was the world’s biggest fool.

“Gigant Shield.”

As soon as I used the skill, a faint golden light wrapped around my body. Originally, it was a shield that couldn’t stop Lauchitas’ claws, but now that it received the double buffs, I would survive even if I was bitten by the creature itself.

This, is all yours. So I am going to avenge you.

I walked slowly out of a gap in the wall where I was hiding. I could see a giant monster lurking at the far end of the wide corridor.

Lauchitas. Grade 1 polyp. The Dragon King of Poison and Curse. It had only appeared twice so far and both times were deemed as a non-combatant because its Dungeon door was closed.

The red dragon with three heads was looking at me. Among the three heads, the middle one’s eyes had been burnt out. The Lauchitas was very resilient, but it seemed that even it could not recover in such a short period of time from the injuries caused by Yuhyun’s blood.

Yeah, my younger brother’s great. Now I have double the abilities of that great younger brother

****. You’re dead

HOPE YOU LIKE IT.... ❤️*DON'T FORGET TO LIKE AND SUSCRIBE*

Love you all❤️😁

I pulled out a dagger and made a long cut on my forearm. Blood leaked out of the cut and formed a dark red spear. Dazzling black flames flowed from the tip of the spear and wound around the shaft.

-GrrrrLauchitas, who had previously looked down on my and ignored me, raised all three of its heads at the same time. Its hackles rose, wary at the sight of the spear that had taken its eyes. Its mouth opened, showing the rows of serrated teeth that lay within.

If it were the original me, I would have long collapsed under its pressure before I could even meet its eyes. But now I couldn’t even feel the slightest bit of tension.

I was sure. It was weaker than me.

“C’mon, you fucking lizard.’

-Grrrr!

It cried as if in answer. The entire area was shaken by the roar that was full of life. The three heads of the red giant completely rose off the ground. There were no wings. Instead it had a sleek body that wore awful curses all over it, like a leopard’s spotted coat. Its long tail were full of speckled and patterned swirls, along with a set of thorns.

Thud!

Its four feet hit the ground. The sickle-like claws, which resembled the scythes of the god of death, left long scars on the floor. It had unimaginably fast movement for such a giant body. In one move, the creature crossed the space between us in a single leap. If it had been the me from before, I wouldn’t have been able to catch it.

But now I could.

“Why aren’t you crawling?”

I felt like it was a puppy that was running around. My brother was ranked 3 in terms of speed among the world’s strongest adults and teenagers. If my younger brother had been alone, the attacks of this little three-headed lizard wouldn’t be allowed to even graze him. At this moment, I was faster than him.

Tap!

I jumped into the air with a twisted mockery of a smile.

Smash!

The creature’s claws broke through the ground I had been standing on. As I lazily looked down at the scene, I used a flood of skills.

“Blue Willow Leaves.”

Leaves that could only be seen by the caster scattered over the area. I stepped on the leaves with my toes and jumped up into the air once again.

The highly poisonous Lauchitas jumped up again and again but I nimbly dodged its claws. Its curses, that shot up at me like stingers, was blocked by the shield.

Graaa!

The baby lizard on the ground roared. If you don’t like this, come up here with your wings!

My brother had no flying skills. But with the Blue Willow Leaves skill, he could dance in the air as if we were on the ground. There wasn’t any goddamn thing that he couldn’t do.“No, he couldn’t cut ties with a useless older brother.”

Muttering, I pulled the spear in my head to the side. I wound the black flames back and pulled as if I were pulling a bow.

Shoot!

-Grrrr!

The spear that I fired penetrated the left head of Lauchitas. The black flames soared and the pierced head melted away in an instant. The lizard went mad with pain, running wild, swinging its claws and biting with its teeth. However, it was too slow.

Thud! Thud!

Like an eel that had been dragged ashore onto dry land, it jumped up and down on its bottom. It was a funny scene. That bastard’s funny, but I’m funny too.

I used my blood to create a new spear.

Bam!

-Kuh! Graa!

The right head was also smashed. With the loss of the heads that had working eyes, the Lauchitas was discern the world around it. The creature with scales all over its body stopped moving around and crouched down. It was as if it was scared.

“……this is too easy.”

It was so easy that I was almost in tears. It met its end too quickly.

If I burned the last head, even the most powerful dragon species wouldn’t be able to withstand it, but I aimed for the legs instead of the head. It was as helpless as a fish drying up on hot sand as I cut its limbs off one by one.

Slowly, gently.

The monster shrieked, groaned, and then took its final, dying gasps.

The floor was like a bloody version of a muddy swamp, but the Lauchitas was still alive. I clicked my tongue and sat on its body.

Time was almost up. Once the timer for the skill was over, I would immediately die from the venom of Lauchitas’ carcass.

What a useless person, I was.

“What else could I do even if I survived?”

If people knew that Yuhyun was dead because of me, his older brother, I would probably be sentenced to a public execution. If I was tied to the square, people would come from all over the world to stone me.

“I would go down in history, maybe even in textbooks. I have been cursed a lot so far, but now I’m sure I’m going to be cursed for generations to come. Haha.”

Why did you die instead of me, my stupid younger brother? It was really useless. Ah, ****. I should have died back then when I had broken my leg. Then I wouldn’t be as horrible as I am now and Yuhyun wouldn’t have died for me. He really saved such a useless and unnecessary guy.

I thumped on the scales of the Lauchitas, which was breathing its last breaths, with the palm of my hand.

“I’m not going to live much longer so don’t be unfair. Why did you come out of a D Class Dungeon anyway? Did the managers miscalculate the Class?”

Either way, it didn’t matter to me anymore. There was no way I had the energy to leave before the effects of my skill ended.

“Why hadn’t I simply supported Yuhyun from behind and lived well?”

Getting protected by my good-natured younger brother and just live off of him; why did I get this inferiority complex?

Just then, the reward window for the death of Lauchitas popped up.

[Impossible Achievement! You have hunted a dragon alone!]

Yuhyun had shot the dragon too; why was it considered alone? Maybe it was because of the time difference between his attacks and mine.

Legendary Title ‘Dragon Slayer’ has been granted!]

Dragon Slayer. It sounded like a title with some great stats, but I hadn’t checked it. How did I know? A pumpkin is still a pumpkin even if you draw lines on it.

Then, my level rose and a series of items appeared one after another.

[Gatestone x10]

[Grade 1 Grant Amount x5]

[Red Dragon’s Great Sword]

[Wish Stone]

Huh? Wish Stone?

While glancing through the items in the window, the first thing I noticed was the Wish Stone. It was my first time seeing such an item.

“Just by seeing your name, it seems like you’ll be able to grant me a wish.”

No way. Something like that could only be a scam.

Though I thought it was ridiculous, I still sat up. When I opened the inventory, I saw a red bead that was just a little smaller than my fist.

Swallowing dryly, I took the beads out and checked the information on it.

[Wish Stone – Myth Class

Grants one wish for the user.]

It’s real!

“Then, my younger brother-!”

[※ Resurrection of the deceased is not allowed.]

“……what the ****?!”

I belatedly noticed the last condition of the item. Why wasn’t I able to save a dead person? A Myth Class should be a Myth Class! If you are a god, you should be able to do whatever you want!

“Dammit, then what’s the point?! Everything except saving people? I, I just…!”

I grasped the Wish Stone tightly in my hand.

Things that I could wish for instantly flashed through my head. If it could grant any wish, I might be able to become stronger than Yuhyun. Maybe I could keep my current state.

Then I could get rid of my bad reputation. People would soon forget the heroes of the past and praise the new ones.

I could finally take the position that I had been so envious of.

In a much more glorious position, I could climb higher than anyone.

I was caught in delusion and rolled my eyes, and sighed for a long time.

“……Yuhyun, you. You’re really screwing with me until the end.”

I might regret it. No, I’m sure that I would regret it.

So, I won’t regret anything.

I’m already coated with layers of regret, if I added one more, would it make a difference?

“Hey, Wish Stone. Is it possible to turn back time?”

As if in answer, the red bead began to shine. The dead could not be raised, but I could still do this. It seemed like it was better to turn the clock back, how funny.

Then to before I came in here, no. Just bring me back to five years ago. With my current memory. I’ll live quietly and live well this time around.”

If I hadn’t gone out, I wouldn’t have been in trouble and my legs would be fine. Yuhyun wouldn’t be upset because of me. Everything would be fine.

I would just live off of my brother’s surplus money.

[Do you want to turn back time?]

“Yeah.”

The light shining from the beads grew stronger. All my eyes saw was bright red burn, and then suddenly everything became white.

And the sight of the strange room settle in front of my vision.

Like and comment your taught ❤️

I was sitting on a bed and not on a dragon’s body. The scent of blood was also gone. The clothes I had been wearing were different too.

‘……Have I really gone back in time?’

First of all, I could not open the status window. I didn’t have my inventory either. Five years ago, I still had yet to be Awakened.

‘Yuhyun, that kid, was already a popular guild leader.’

Haeyeon Guild (垓埏). It was the guild that would become the best in both Korea and the world after five years of rapid development with a small number of elite members.

Of course, I was unable to get in. …There were many guild members that did not like me.

‘I’ve heard a hundred times that I should stop hanging around the guild and get out.’

Ugh, lousy things. Yeah, this time around I’ll keep my head down and live well.

I rummaged through my pocket and took out my cellphone. The date… Oh, I really was 5 years in the past. The most recent message was—

‘Wait, wasn’t this an Awakening Broker?’

Just that morning I had contacted the Awakening Broker. Seeing that, I began to recall the past.

‘I have gone back to that time.’

It had been 3 years since Dungeons started appearing in the world, causing the Awakening of many enthusiastic Hunters. Now was a time where the rapidly changing world was gradually stabilizing.

It was a time when I was struggling with an inferiority complex, only able to look at the back of my brother, who was a well-known “S-level Awakening”. Therefore I contacted the Awakening Broker in the vain hope that if I Awakened, I would be like him.

Awakening Brokers. To put it simply, swindlers.

Awakening Brokers were brokers who illegally allowed people to enter Dungeons in exchange for a large amount of money, telling them that they would Awaken if they clear the Dungeon. Most of them, however, were vicious people who would disappear after taking the money. Even if they did take you to the Dungeon, they would not protect you.

‘It’s not like I Awakened through clearing a Dungeon in the first place.’

There was a high possibility of Awakening due to the dangerous environment of a Dungeon, but it has nothing to do with clearing the Dungeon. Those facts were revealed to the public half a year later and the Korean Hunter’s Association would later create a safe Awakening facility, and brokers completely disappeared.

Anyway, I had packed some money to meet with the broker.

‘I had gotten caught by my younger brother’s men and brought here.’

Yeah, I remember this for sure. This was one of the rooms in the Haeyeon Guild building.

Right now he was probably going to come in and yell at me with disapproval. Just as I had that thought, the door burst open. Han Yuhyun stepped into the room.

He wasn’t a gentleman either.

“Hyung.”

My living younger brother called out to me. The face looking at me was very young. He was young even after five years but right now, he was even younger.

He was twenty years old, now.

He was just now showing signs of being an adult; if the world was peaceful, he would still be a student. Either that or he would have just been enlisted into the army. Of course, the army still existed.

‘S Class Awakeners were exempt from the army, though.’

I had gone there. There were many young man in the army who Awakened in the army and get discharged early. If I had been honorably discharged, it would be due to the fact that I was an F Class. Exemption from military service started with Class Es.

Anyway Yuhyun was so good that he didn’t need to go to the military… Oh, my inferiority complex was about to explode again.

Let’s give up greed. Let’s throw away anguish. Namo Amitahba. (t/n: Buddhist mantra)

With a dirty look on his face, Yuhyun walked towards me. Now that he was closer, I could see that the five-year period was more difficult for him than I had thought.

I hadn’t really thought about it before my regression, but now it seemed that he must have had a hard time. It wasn’t easy to make and develop your own guild even if you were an S Class.

Meanwhile, his older brother got into an accident.

……I was wrong.

“Dungeon Brokers are—”

“I’m sorry.”

I apologized first. My younger brother, who was about to lecture me, shut up.

He looked at me as if he had never seen me before.

“I won’t do it again.”

For this and everything that would have happened later. I would live up to my word. Yuhyun had a confused look on his face and carefully opened his mouth.

“By any chance, if you’ve had any major accident……”

“It’s not like that.”

He didn’t trust me. He didn’t believe me.

I slapped him on the arm with a smile.

“Well, I sat down and thought about it, and I realized that I seem to have been immature.”

The dragon’s back was cool, so it had been the perfect placed for me to rest my head.

My little brother was taken aback by my awkward remarks.

“No, it’s not that you’re immature… no.”

“Not really. Hey, can I give you a hug?”

“H, huh?”

“It’s been a long time.”

It’s been a long time for him, but not me. The cold sensation of his body was still clear under the palm of my hand.

“……as you please.”

Yuhyun hesitantly nodded. Your big brother is just going to hug you once, little brother. What are you so embarrassed about?

Well, I’m a little embarrassed too.

I stretched out my arms and hugged my brother. The hug covered his entire body. It was smaller than before I had regressed.

“My younger brother, Han Yuhyun.”

His body was warm in my arms. I could hear the slightly accelerated beating of his heat and breath.

In my deep relief, something came out of my mouth. It was something that I usually never would have said.

“I love you.”

His body flinched and trembled. Hey, I’m embarrassed too, so don’t say anything. Just—

[The Awakening of ‘Han Yujin’ has been registered.]

…huh?

[Legendary Title ‘Perfect Caregiver’ granted!]

What?

[Title ‘Perfect Caregiver’ is in effect.

Perfect Caregiver Additional Skills – My Little One’s The Best

The growth rate of the Awakened ‘Han Yuhyun’ is doubled.

Duration – 3 days]

Whaaat?!?

The hell, what was this scam skill?

Caregiver titles were common. It was easy to receive this title if you were a parent or an older sibling who took care of and raised an Awakened person. It was even possible without blood relations.

If the dependent’s Awakening Class was over C and the relationship was good, it was likely for this title to appear. If the dependent’s Awakening was C Class to B Class, the title would be ‘Clumsy Caregiver’. A Class was ‘Ordinary Caregiver’. Finally, S Class was just ‘Caregiver’.

I had thought that the title of ‘Caregiver’ was considered to be the highest as there were no Awakeners that were beyond S Class.

‘The Perfect Caregiver? What the hell is this?’

In addition, the rate of the growth buffs was doubled.

My former title, ‘Caregiver’, gave an additional growth buff of up to 10 percent.  It only lasted for a single day. But this was double that. Didn’t this mean that you could raise a level in half a year?

‘No, the benefits are more towards skills than levels. Higher grade skills grow at a frustratingly slower pace!’

Wow, this was totally a scam. If I gave someone a buff before they went into a Dungeon, they would grow at light speed.

“…hyung?”

“Uh, yeah. No.”

I was so surprised that I had kept hugging him.

As I relaxed my arms and stepped back, Yuhyun’s face turned a little red and he coughed.

“……Lately I’ve been putting a lot of pressure on you. Thanks for saying this, hyung.”

“Th, thank you.”

“……”

“……”

An awkward silence fell. Well. Hmm, hmm.

When I felt that I could no longer bear the awkwardness and wanted to break and jump out of a window, Yuhyun spoke.

“……Do you want to have dinner with me later? It has been a long time.”

“Oh, I’d love to.”

“Yes.  Well, I’ve got work to do.”

“Mm, keep up the good work.”

My brother went out and the door closed. I tore my hair out.

‘Wow, that was awkward.’

Was this what it was going to be like during dinner? I thought I said that I didn’t want to eat. Cancel it now—

Suddenly

“I forgot.”

Yuhyun, who I thought had left, opened the door again. It was surprising.

“Remove the Awakening Broker from your contacts.”

He said, looking at the cell phone on the bed.

“I wouldn’t have let you answer the phone anyway.”

“……what?”

I must have made a mistake and sounded like I was going to seek out the broker.

Yuhyun has been staring at me without leaving even though he had finished speaking. …Did he want me to delete it right now? When I picked up his cell phone and showed him that I had deleted the broker’s contact information, he walked out with a satisfied expression.

My younger brother’s attitude was a little tense, moreso than usual.

‘My status window!’

I quickly opened the status window to take a look.
