Charles Mind Reading (4/6)
Wheres Anna?! Is my wife safe?!
The door opened with another bang as Father strode into the living room. He was supposedly in a neighboring kingdom, but he immediately returned, it seemed.
Father, its alright. Mother and our little brother are all safe.
Elder Brother Cain returned a bit earlier than Father, so he was the one who answered.
It took a while before Father came, so we sent another Letter Bird to tell him that Mother gave birth to a boy.
I-I see. Thats a relief.
Father collapsed on the sofa after listening to Elder Brother Cains reassurance.
So Where is my son?
Hes in Mothers room. He also has black hair like us, and his eyes are a pretty shade of blue. And

And? What happened?
Leon and Charles felt a blessing, it seems.
W-What?!
Father looked really shocked. By the way, Elder Brother Cain was also stupefied, like Father, when we told him what we felt back then.
Elder Brothers Cain and Leon also talked about how our little brother, who was born just awhile ago, was the one blessed.
How amazing it is for a baby to be blessed, I wonder?
I see. Then, that means its really true that the hero candidate hails from our family
Eh? H-Hero candidate?
Fathers muttered words bothered me.
Father, what do you mean by hero candidate?
I also know what a hero was. The demon king, a very bad guy, would appear, and he would spread fear and destruction in the world. The hero would be the one to defeat that villain and restore peace on earth.
Its said that a demon king went on a rampage around a hundred years ago, and it was the heroes from another world who defeated him. Heroes are guys who come from that other world.
Thats the reason why I dont understand what Father said, that my little brother is a hero candidate.
My brother was born in this world, so theres no way hell become a hero.
Charles, did Anna tell you the name of your little brother?
Yes. She said its Halt.
Yes, thats right. Did she tell you that the deities named him?
...Yes.
Mother told me that the deity appeared in her dream and told her that her babys name should be Halt. She also told me that Father also saw the same dream.
Since both of them dreamed the same thing, they were both convinced that it was really the deities will, so they decided to obediently name him Halt, apparently.
Then itll be easier for me to explain. Your little brother Halt will become the [Vessel] for the hero that will come from another world in the future.
Vessel of the Hero?
What is a vessel?
When the heroes come to this world, they do so by [Teleportation], [Transmigration] or [Reincarnation]. The reincarnated or transmigrated heroes are children whose souls blended with the souls of the otherworlders, and thats how they manifest in this world.
I-I dont quite follow
Father explained the transmigrated and reincarnated heroes' story in simple terms, so I somehow understood it, but
T-Then, does that mean Halt will no longer be Halt!?
I thought a stranger would occupy my little brother Halts body when he turns five.
I definitely dont want that!!
Thats because my little brother who has the purest of hearts will become somebody else
Hmm Honestly Im not sure myself how that will pan out.
Father didnt understand it quite well too, it seems. Teleported heroes were more common, and its been several hundred years since a transmigrated hero appeared, apparently.
However, Halts soul will merge with the otherworlders soul, so it doesnt mean he will completely disappear. Besides, Halt is still a candidate to become a hero, so Creator God-sama blessed him.
If there was no threat to the world in short, if the Demon King didnt appear, then the soul of the otherworlder wouldnt transmigrate to Halts body.
The moment I understood this, I decided what I would do.
If the Demon King appeared, I would defeat him right away.
Well, only the heroes could defeat the demon kings, but
It doesnt matter!!
I would definitely crush the demon king.
Will my Elder Brothers help me?
But even if Im on my own, Ill definitely work hard and see it through.
I will never hand Halt over to that otherworlder.
StrongI have to be strong!!
I decided that I would obtain the power to defeat the Demon King no matter what in order to protect Halt.
