Became an Academy Spearman - Chapter 537



537. Golden Knights Selene and Elin

***

As the night deepened.

The second floor where Princess Rachel stayed was exclusively occupied by employees and knights related to her.

And now. There were two women walking with strange expressions.

Crash.

When Selene closed the door and entered the inner room, Elin sat on her bed and stared at Selene.

“Selene, do you care that much?”

“…I don’t think this is right.”

“It’s what the princess decided. “It’s not for us to judge right and wrong.”

Elin tried to soothe Selene with a soft voice, but even so, Selene’s frowning eyes hardly seemed to open up.

dump.

Selene let out a deep sigh as she sat down on her bed.

“I really don’t know what’s going on. I know that Princess Rachel views Han Cheon-seong quite positively, but I still think she needs to distinguish between public and private in this matter… .”

Clap, clap.

Elin, who was unraveling the seams of the armor she was wearing, glanced at Selene and soon finished removing the armor.

Sreuk.

He burst into laughter as he organized and laid down the armor parts in the space provided on one side of the bed.

“It’s not that I don’t understand your feelings.”

“Elin. “Then shouldn’t you also talk to the princess a little bit?”

In response to Selene’s momentary retort, Elin gently shook her head. While her voice was so soft, Elin’s eyes stared at Selene extremely calmly.

“Because understanding and acting are completely different things.”

“No, but… .”

“selenium. Still, no. “If the princess says that, doesn’t that mean she likes Han Cheon-seong a lot?”

Selene stared at her blankly as Elin continued.

Unlike Elin, who removed her armor and wore comfortable cloth clothing, she did not even remove her armor.

That much distracted Selene, and it was difficult for Selene to accept Elin’s words.

“I heard you like it.”

“Looking at the princess recently, I can’t help but think that way. I actually think that Princess Rachel has been more active in expressing her favor than Han Cheon-seong today. But it wasn’t until today that Han Cheon-seong looked shaken and showed strange signs. To be honest, it’s not that surprising to me.”

As I continued speaking naturally, Selene clasped both hands without realizing it.

-I still don’t understand.

-Why on earth does that happen?

-How should I accept this? .

Although all sorts of confusion swirled around in Selene’s mind, one thing they had in common was that this was a fact that was difficult to accept in Selene’s values.

‘A princess and a commoner man.’

It was an irreverent content that should not be covered even in commercially available novels, and even if someone dreams of it, it should only be a dream.

But how can that happen in reality?

“But I… think that lines must be maintained.”

“That line wasn’t something we decided in the first place, right?”

“I do not know. If something like this were to happen to you or my family, there would be a huge uproar. But how much more so the princess… ? The princess is well-known within the imperial family. Even though she has a brother, Prince Dersen, she does not have much will to succeed to the imperial throne… .”

As I continued talking, I stopped when Elin suddenly burst into laughter.

“Foot… .”

Am I the only one who is this serious right now? For me, it was difficult to accept Elin’s reaction.

“Elin. “Aren’t you worried about the princess?”

“Really, where are we to worry? No matter how much Han Tiansheng is a commoner, his talent and the level he has achieved cannot be disparaged. You know that better than me, having competed in it yourself, right? Even if the princess had boldly harbored feelings for him, a man named Han Cheon-seong is not a man who is so unsuitable for the princess. “I think so.”

“Regardless of whether it suits you or not… this will be a really big excuse.”

As I answered, I naturally imagined it.

It’s still the case now, but I wonder how rumors will spread in the future.

There will definitely be all kinds of gossip, and the princess will be at the center of those rumors. Just by visiting Han Cheon-seong in person last time, there was a big uproar at the academy.

And that clearly had a negative effect on the princess. I was even more so because I watched it all.

“Bilmira… I want to support the princess’s feelings.”

“Of course, that doesn’t mean I won’t follow the princess’s wishes. However, even if you think about it well and everything else is the same, that man already has another woman. That’s not even one person, right? Elin. Are you saying you can even accept this?”

This was the princess we had been watching and looking at for several years.

The one who will properly and properly look after the empire in the future.

How could a noble and so beautiful princess harbor feelings for a man who had relationships with so many women and allow distance between them?

Just thinking about it made my emotions boil inside me.

As someone who was close to him before, I also understood that he wanted to keep that man by his side. I thought that his talent itself was definitely outstanding, and his thoughts and values ​​themselves were not that bad.

So I thought it was his personal history of having relationships with several women and did not consider it a flaw.

however. The fact that the man harbored dark feelings toward the princess was a completely different story.

“It’s about women…” .”

I was momentarily shocked when I saw Elin blurting out her words and avoiding my gaze.

Although he has answered everything I have said well so far, his answer is vague when it comes to relationships with women. And it wasn’t because it was difficult to answer.

I know well what Elin’s hobbies are.

“Are you… feeling strange right now?”

“Selendo~ What did you think I was thinking?”

When I saw Elin stuttering, a deep sigh escaped me.

“Please stop reading romance novels. That’s just a story someone made up. But this is definitely reality, and it’s not something you can think about so simply in reality, right?”

“No, Selene. “Because it happened in reality, it also appears in the novel… right?”

When I saw Elin smiling awkwardly, I realized her true feelings.

Why is Elin now protecting Han Tiansheng and trying to see her in a better light? Even though she was the princess we had been watching for years, she thought Elin was so foolish.

“I’ll just say it straight away. Having relationships with multiple women is just a bad man. And bad men like that are just bad. “I support the princess’s wishes more than anyone else, but… I don’t think this situation is very good right now.”

The weight of living as a member of the royal family. And considering the value of Princess Rachel, there was no difference.

It was only once.

If the princess really accepted Han Cheon-seong and even formed a relationship, that was the end of it.

The princess’s life will be completely colored by that man. And… there was no other option.

“I heard that Selene is a really hard person when she’s like this.”

“…Elin. “I think you might be taking it too lightly.”

Even though I met her coldly, I wanted to persuade Elin somehow.

‘If only we could convey our sincere words to the princess… .’

I thought I could change the princess’s wrong choices now.

It was for the princess… and also for that man.

As a close associate of the princess, I thought that man was the best.

Perhaps in the future, he might be able to support the princess as the strongest force.

However, if you try to form a relationship with each other in mind, it will only lead to unhappiness for both sides.

“I had relationships with several women. Han Cheon-seong. Because he is a bad man… .”

I nodded vigorously as I saw Elin muttering what I said.

“I think so. “If you really truly love someone, there’s no way you can turn your attention to another woman.”

I knew the necessity of the harem system.

Considering the current situation of the empire and the insufficient number of men in various types of education, it is a system that must inevitably exist.

However, given my values, it was difficult to accept that.

If I had been said to be the target of a harem, I might have somehow accepted it and complied.

But Princess Rachel was different.

‘How could such a ridiculous relationship be established with such a noble princess…’ .’

While I was thinking, I noticed something unusual.

Elin, who always smiled gently, slowly began to erase her smile.

“selenium. “I feel like I need to address this properly, but what you said is wrong.”

“…Why are you saying what I said was wrong?”

Rather than immediately refute those words, I looked directly at Elin’s change.

Honestly, if the two people were truly in love, I would have viewed Han Tiansheng positively in some way.

As Elin said, I don’t think the princess expressed her favor first.

But in this case, I thought I was absolutely right.

“You know it because you saw it yourself. “How did the princess act every time she met Han Cheon-seong?”

“How did you behave?”

I thought it was just an expression of goodwill.

These actions are done because the princess viewed Han Cheon-seong favorably.

“Didn’t the princess contact Han Cheon-seong first, just like she did from the Magic Tower?”

“That was it.”

“And it’s been like that ever since. Han Tiansheng never approached the princess first or expressed his selfish intentions. I can say this much with certainty. “Do you agree with this?”

Elin was looking at me coldly, as if she knew that I couldn’t deny anything.

“…….”

Even as I looked back on our past encounter, I felt something unexpected.

It’s exactly as Elin said.

“And I don’t mean to look favorably on Han Tiansheng because of something like a romance novel. I too am seeing reality clearly. So I’m saying this. “If Han Tiansheng had been a really bad man and easily reached out to many women, I would have told the princess before you said that.”

I couldn’t say anything to Elin’s cold voice.

I felt speechless.

That was… contradictory.

Because Han Tiansheng was a bad man, he had relationships with several women.

If what I said was true, Han Tiansheng should have shown such a sign first. He’s secretly getting closer to Princess Rachel or trying to make contact.

In addition, he tried to win the princess’s heart with various words.

however.

It wasn’t all that.

Even if you tried to think negatively of him, you couldn’t fake the truth.

Even my heart was thinking.

Han Tiansheng… is not that type of man.

“Now you feel it too. What you say is contradictory. It is because of this that I think of Han Cheon-seong better. No matter how much the princess expressed her feelings and made contact, she tried to control herself. “Because she was more aware than us that she should not have such feelings.”

“…that’s right.”

Even though I answered helplessly, I felt like my heart had just been broken.

Fact and reality.

The appearance of a man named Han Cheon-seong that I had seen so far proved everything Elin said.

From noble mtl dot come

Rather, it is strange that the man has not harbored any ill will towards the princess until now. Princess Rachel was more beautiful than anyone I had ever seen in this world, and was so outstanding that even high-ranking nobles started talking about her.

However, I had such frequent meetings with the princess. During that meeting, the princess was the first to extend her hand and several minor touches of skin were exchanged.

However, Han Cheon-seong was the one who had endured everything well so far.

‘If it were another man… .’

The man had endured until today, even though he had already succumbed to the princess’s light words and compliments.

“therefore. I guess I’m fine. If the princess wants it, a man named Han Cheon-seong is worth that much. “When I think about the princess’ outstanding insight, I don’t even think she was wrong.”

I faced Elin, who spoke calmly and held my hand, and let out a sigh that was close to resignation.

My heart broke.

I tried to persuade Elin, but I ended up being persuaded instead.

That too completely.

“If the princess wishes… .”

I belatedly accepted reality while muttering in a daze.

The princess and Elin were not the ones who had not seen reality until now.

It was… me.

“And personally, I think bad guys are quite attractive.”

Then, I burst into laughter at Elin’s words.

“…hey.”
