contemporary romance
Callon, Alma's big brother. Since she was reborn in this world from her life as a fat scientist that got caught in a shower of bullets from a raid inside of his illegal facility, which was related with Benladann's previous life, that she saw him.
At first her big brother was rather nice and gentle, he wasn't the gentlest out there though, and often times seemed a bit tired of her. Mostly because he was 13 years old than her and didn't had enough time nor the patience for her little antics.
However, Alma's peaceful life as a Princess of an Elven Kingdom inside of the Elven Continent of Alfheim was suddenly and abruptly stopped by the sudden appearance of a man… Greenwood. Back then, he presented himself as a distinguished noble with many connections with royal families across the continent, he was even admired by the elves as "the great sage".
Alma, since the moment she meet him, that she found him suspicious, and so he was. Slowly, he seeped his influence into her parents, using certain ways to slowly brainwash them. Since the moment they discovered her Unique Skills that they wanted to know what would be of their daughter. Greenwood presented himself as the one that could help her.
An expert in Unique Skills, he wanted to help Alma and give her the ability to thrive, or so her parents always said, even thought that was never the actual truth. Greenwood used his powers to easily get through them and brainwash them, making them want to obey his every words… ultimately, he did the same for his brother, who over time, developed envy and jealously against his little sister, despite being so untalented, she was always given all the attention from her parents, and he was never even given enough attention, or love.
When Alma was captured at a young age, she was thrown into a facility by Greenwood, where she lived as a test subject for over a year. However, thanks to the friends and allies she made before getting there, she managed to free herself and bring many with her from that facility. Over time, as she grew stronger and looked for clues about what had happened, she discovered her Kingdom was overtaken by Greenwood, and her parents were killed, without her being able to do anything about it.
Her big brother and her little sister were the only things left for her. She tried looking for them everywhere she could, finally finding her little sister, who had ran away and hid thanks to the guards of her castle, hiding for many years until they were able to reencounter. Having encountered Aria, and using Hermes' powers, she brought her into a safer place, a faraway continent where they were hiding with everyone she had rescued.
However, her quest to find her big brother ended a few years ago when she found him, working for Greenwood and blaming her for the death of her parents. Greenwood had manipulated his mind with both magic and deception, like a damned trickster. Ultimately, they fought, her brother fully intending to end her there using the powers he was given by Greenwood's technology and magic.
However, at the end, Alma won, but didn't wanted to kill her brother. She originally attempted to bring him with her, but the entire facility began to fall apart due to the many fights going on everywhere, and she was dragged away by Hermes before being teleported away with him… Some could say it was Hermes fault that Callon ended being crushed by the building's boulders, as he didn't wanted to bring the one that wanted to kill her with him, but Alma blamed it all to herself. To her weakness, to her stupidity, and to her naivety.
Her entire family died except her little sister. Her new parents weren't the best, but she loved them, yet they died as well, and so did her big brother… or so she thought.
But now, here he stood, looking at her with calm anger. His body was modified, barely managing to survive being crushed. Most of his bones were shattered as his limbs were lost as well. Greenwood had no attachment to him, he was merely a pawn, and would had left his dead body there if it wasn't because he could still be used.
Greenwood mercilessly used his technology to improve upon Callon's body, until he became the half-droid he was right now, his body modified and enhanced, he had left behind any humanity he had, becoming only a living nightmare for Alma, as he reminded her of her mistakes, and of her sorrowful past the most.
"What's wrong, Alma? Are you scared of how I look? This is what you've made me. This is your fault…" He said angrily.
"No… T-That's… Callon… I…!" Alma tried to talk with her big brother, but he remained silent and didn't answer.
"You're such a manipulative woman even now… I will put an end to you right now, and get this over with once and for all! I will avenge my parents and get Aira back from you!" Callon was completely insane, roaring back at Alma as if she had ever done anything to him.
"Greenwood, you bastard! You brainwashed Alma's brother even more now?! Why did you even…?! Just what's your sick problem?!" Hermes asked, trying to make up some sort of sense from Greenwood's actions.
"My goals and actions are all done to reach a goal, and such a goal is too beyond your pea-sized brain's understanding." Greenwood said mercilessly. "Callon, capture your sister."
"Capture her?! But you said I could kill her!" Callon angrily said.
"You can do whatever you want to her but don't kill her. I still have to extract her powers first, later, you can kill her." Greenwood said.
"Tsk… so be it." Callon said, mercilessly pointing at Alma with one of his hands, opening the palm of his hand as a red jewel within began to shine bright red. "Photon Cannon."
