Became an Academy Spearman - Chapter 511



511. Princess Rachel’s heart

***

Again.

Even as she walked, Rachel’s eyes glanced at Cheonseong’s body.

‘Not really… .’

There doesn’t seem to be anything wrong.

When I met him in person, he seemed so calm that I wondered if I even needed to worry.

I was very surprised when I returned to the academy last night and heard the news belatedly. I wondered if I had been involved in another accident or if I was in a fatal condition.

As I headed to a nearby bench, I naturally sat down.

Sreuk.

It felt funny as I sat down, gently adjusting the hem of my skirt.

It definitely feels like there’s too much attention.

I wondered if it was that surprising that I came here. Although I thought that the space was not separated for no reason, I slowly looked to the side.

Sreuk.

He awkwardly sat down two steps away from me and seemed extremely careful.

“Aren’t we pretty close now?”

When I saw that, I inadvertently asked a question.

A few meetings.

I went to the Magic Tower a few times to see him, and after meeting him a few times, I thought he and I had become quite close.

“Ah, ahaha… I’m just really grateful that the princess treats me so comfortably.”

From noble mtl dot come

However, looking at the man smiling awkwardly and answering questions, it seemed like things were very different within the academy.

‘Well, when the two of us were talking… .’

Isn’t it bound to be different when you’re in front of so many people’s eyes?

“Next time, it would be better to talk in a place where there is less attention.”

“…I’m fine anytime.”

Seeing the shocked response, a smile escaped me and I nodded.

“Elin.”

“yes.”

And when he lightly called one of the two knights, Elin, who recognized the signal, naturally came out and began to manifest mana around him, blocking the sound from escaping to the outside.

“You can speak comfortably now. So what happened yesterday?”

“…”

As he got straight to the point, he was seen briefly taking a breath.

The slightly longer black hair and calm look made me meet his gaze even though it felt like it had been a while.

How long did I wait for those words to come out?

“I met the Apostle yesterday.”

Tuk.

I blinked my eyes unconsciously at the words he spoke.

‘Apostle?’

where?

Even with the doubts that arose so quickly, I found it a bit absurd.

“There are rumors that people keep disappearing from the outskirts of the city. “Have you ever heard of Princess Rachel?”

“…I heard it. I heard that the knights and mercenary guilds in the city are trying to get to the bottom of the rumors. Wait, does that mean you faced the apostle because of that?”

“yes. Yesterday, on the outskirts of the city, I encountered the apostle who was responsible for the incident… and after a series of battles, my appearance was covered in blood. And although it only looked that serious, I was able to overcome the situation easily thanks to the help of Sir Isabelle, who was escorting me.”

Concise.

And the way he spoke, making eye contact with me as if he wasn’t lying at all, seemed transparent.

So I could believe it.

Watching him reveal the truth to me, I couldn’t stop laughing.

“under… .”

There was an apostle in this city.

And in this city, the capital of the empire.

That alone is a very shocking fact. Moreover, this man was saying that he had personally encountered the truth that even the knights and mercenary guilds that had already investigated had not been able to understand.

“And you killed the apostle…?”

“yes.”

When asked about the apostle, he answered calmly as if there was nothing to be surprised about.

Even the apostle who was the true enemy was killed, bringing the situation to a complete end.

Right on the weekend.

…at a time when other cadets would not have enough time to rest and write for themselves. This man was doing such outrageous things outside of his academy.

“How on earth did you get that information? Even the knights and guilds couldn’t get the information that there was an apostle. But how could you… ?”

So, without realizing it, I started asking in detail.

I tried to take it lightly because it seemed to be in good condition, but this was not an issue that could be taken lightly.

I could clearly see his unnatural movement of his hands.

“Actually… I wasn’t even sure that there was an apostle outside the city. But when I heard such a scary rumor, I thought I had to check it out for myself. “Considering the various incidents that had occurred before, I thought that it might be related to Apostle again and that someone might be in danger.”

The way he carefully spoke to me clearly didn’t seem natural.

It seems like there’s something he’s hiding.

However, the way he met my eyes and answered back made it impossible to see that his words were completely false.

It feels like truth and lies are mixed together.

Even though I saw through it, I couldn’t push this man away.

“……”

“……”

As I made eye contact with him who paused as if waiting for my answer, my eyes narrowed.

‘Was I thinking wrong?’

Through a series of meetings at the last Magic Tower. I thought I had some idea of ​​the man named Han Cheon-seong.

But it was very different now.

It was calm.

Even as I looked at the man looking at me, asking if I needed any other reason… .

“…”

I felt like I was suffocating.

This man apparently came back from the dead.

That too several times already.

Since I had already done countless investigations into the man named Han Tiansheng, I now knew what kind of crisis Han Tiansheng was facing.

Because I checked and re-watched it several times.

‘And yet… .’

This man was now saying that he had acted to face danger. Not just for yourself, but for others.

To be honest, I couldn’t believe that someone could be in danger.

Maybe he was saying something bordering on hypocrisy to show me some pretense or to make himself look good – it was to the point where I had that suspicion for a moment.

But I couldn’t think about it that way.

The man who didn’t avoid my eyes only acted because he truly thought so… .

Even though my thoughts were becoming complicated, I spoke first.

“…I will speak to the imperial family first. “It is obviously dangerous to have an apostle in the city again.”

“Ah, Princess Rachel. “I… I was planning to tell Lord Isabelle properly about the situation that happened yesterday.”

I couldn’t stop laughing at the way he spoke to me urgently.

Even at this moment, rather than thinking about what he had done or trying to show off, this man was thinking about someone else.

“I have no intention of criticizing you or Sir Isabelle for reporting late or anything like that. “Meeting an apostle yesterday means that you probably needed time to collect yourself.”

As I continued talking, I saw the man named Han Tiansheng again.

Even now, the pitch black eyes staring at me reminded me of obsidian. However, even though the eyes were pitch black, there was a brilliant light inside them.

I felt once again that there was something special about it in many ways.

‘…If you think about it, it was like that at the Magic Tower.’

I suddenly remembered the time when the Magic Tower made a request to me.

When he boldly said that he wanted to have a closer relationship with me among other members of the royal family, I looked at him curiously.

And seeing the strength he showed, I thought he deserved that level of confidence.

This man’s talent was too outstanding to be underestimated simply because he was a commoner.

…and now.

“The imperial court will give you some kind of award for your performance.”

I smiled and opened my mouth.

“…yes?”

“Whether it was by chance that you encountered the Apostle or not, you killed the dangerous Apostle who was staying within the city with Sir Isabelle. It can be said to be your contribution to stopping the apostle, a threat to the empire, and a clear achievement worthy of your praise. “I will convey the message to the imperial family so that you can receive a considerable reward.”

As I continued speaking naturally, I felt as if I was destined.

The reality that I met this man and formed a relationship.

The talent needed for the empire I had idealized from the past was right in front of me.

“…….”

The way he looked at me with his mouth open blankly was different from how I felt before, but even that seemed good to me.

‘It’s fascinating.’

Even though he has power, he does not seek only for himself.

He had great talent that even the lord of the magic tower acknowledged, and he showed such outstanding qualities that even a certain degree of greed was acceptable.

So even if he made some unreasonable demands of me, I was willing to give in to some extent.

That’s because his value was outstanding.

But like this… .

It was straight.

He had such a good personality that it seemed ideal, and he had no greed whatsoever.

“I’m just… angry at the princess’s words.”

“I don’t have to be so grateful because I think it’s something I deserve.”

As I spoke, I naturally stretched out my hand.

Those eyes were visibly shaken by the words I brought up, such as reward money, and it didn’t seem like they were completely greedy, but that was something I could easily overlook.

Suddenly.

“And since you will be essential to this empire in the future, I think I need to pay more attention to you.”

He naturally held that hand and revealed his characteristics.

Even though I was aware that an intangible energy was manifesting through my hands, I gazed at the eyes that were looking at me carefully.

There was no apparent change in the power of fascination.

That wasn’t new anymore.

However, I was now feeling a greater need to consistently use the trait.

‘certainly.’

I need to keep this man by my side.

“…thank you.”

“So, would you like to tell me the story in detail about how you confronted the apostle yesterday? “You say you dealt with me easily, but dealing with an apostle must not have been easy.”

Although he continued speaking in a subdued tone, he let me tell him about his activities.

It was okay if he didn’t try to show himself off right now. Even if he isn’t that kind… .

‘Because I just need to create that situation.’

In addition, no matter who they are, they try to surround themselves with people who think highly of them.

In the first place, building a network wasn’t that big of a deal.

It was enough to be able to respect others.

“…The princess will find it uncomfortable to hear this. Are you okay with that?”

“are you okay.”

A smile naturally leaked out as I saw him being cautious.

“Then… I will tell you carefully about my encounter with the Apostle yesterday.”

Afterwards, as I listened to what he had to say, I was quite surprised.

Sado’s heinous and brutal act of using a missing person as his own body.

As he explained everything to me, it didn’t seem like he was exaggerating the details.

“…It must have been very difficult.”

As I listened to him and naturally encouraged him, I had great hope.

‘It won’t take long.’

From the last Imperial Palace to the requirements that my father had told me about.

Han Tiansheng will definitely not make me wait that long.

I was very surprised when I recently heard the news that he had risen to level 6. Originally, I thought it would take quite a while for him to reach level 7, and I felt impatient.

We need to see his value properly right now.

…I felt like my father would recognize him too late.

But even that was unlucky.

He was moving forward steadily.

“Princess Rachel.”

“why?”

Then, when he paused awkwardly, I tilted my head.

“…I’m sorry, but could you please let go of my hand?”

“Oh, was it uncomfortable?”

Even as I gently let go of my hand, I paused.

‘Was it too blatant?’

I wondered if he had noticed the strange heterogeneity of the charm characteristics. He was seen shaking his head urgently.

“How could I be uncomfortable? “I’m just… I’m worried that other people might see the princess get caught up in unnecessary rumors about me.”

I realized it too late.

…I can feel the stares I used to feel a lot more now.
