To Cherish My Beloved Stepbrother, I Will Live Long! Vol. 5


Alba, who reincarnated as the younger stepbrother of his "most beloved" from his previous life, Orsis, has already broken all death flags, completed his engagement ceremony, and reached a future beyond the original game's ending.

Finally, it's time to enter the advanced academy, where he plans to embark on his "pilgrimage of sacred sites" dedicated to his beloved brother!
But just as Alba is filled with enthusiasm, new encounters and challenges await him.

A boy battling the illness known as "Raonen Disease" that Alba once suffered from, and a dragon whose behavior seems different from what he knows from the game’s storyline. Using the bonds and knowledge built through his love for his "most beloved," Alba faces these trials head-on.

Meanwhile, Orsis seems to be feeling a little jealous, seeing Alba having so much fun at the academy...

The beloved reincarnated son’s journey through life as a "most beloved" continues at full speed!
The long-awaited fifth volume of the popular heartwarming fantasy reincarnation series is here!
