Became an Academy Spearman - Chapter 617
617. End of the game and shocking conversation
***
Pure white interior, treatment room.
Additionally, it was a very familiar space to Cheonseong.
“ha.”
I just stared blankly while taking a deep breath.
In front of me, the sound of shallow breathing. There was Milia with a pale complexion. While I carefully straightened out her messy black hair because she was unconscious, her mind was extremely complicated.
“Milia… … .”
The game is over. It was Millia’s defeat.
Even with the brilliant power of Seshi shown in the last moment, Millia was unable to reach it.
‘no.’
Regardless of whether he reached or not, I thought that Milia performed a great miracle.
An overwhelming miracle that will be remembered by everyone.
Even now, Cece’s last strength glimmered before my eyes.
A huge spiral made of water. Even though it wasn’t much magic, it was something that reached a magical surreality.
‘That… what on earth should I say?’
I previously thought that Milia had enlightened me on the principles of my spiral. Even I, who had realized the spiral, was a strange force that could not be understood by the spiral that appeared at Sesi.
Even at the moment when the orb of dark red light rushed in as if it would destroy everything, the spiral surged brilliantly against the destructive power as if it were a lie, bursting with brilliant light.
Millia lost consciousness by using her own power to block the powerful power displayed by Celestia.
“There was no need for the Golden Knight to step forward.”
Even as I muttered absentmindedly, a small smile lingered on my lips.
The golden knight who saved Karite during the last sparring with Celestia.
The moment Ryuas Petelkeria looked at the fallen Milia with devastated eyes was nothing short of a revelation of how great Milia’s power was.
Sreuk.
He carefully caressed Milia’s pale complexion and slowly raised his head.
“I don’t think you need to come here.”
Between the gorgeous platinum-blonde hair, I saw eyes awkwardly meeting me.
“I just wanted to see the condition. “I wanted to help you if there was anything wrong.”
Celestia answered cautiously. Looking at her, she nodded her head slightly.
‘No malice.’
Even though she pushed Milia with such destructive power and multiple attacks, I know that it wasn’t because she had malicious intent.
She was like that to Karite before, and she was just sincere to Milia, her opponent this time.
therefore.
…I have no reason to hate her right now.
Still, I couldn’t help but think Celestia looked bad on me. It was an instinctive feeling.
Hate for the fact that someone pushed my woman to such an extent.
“Along with Millia, the spirit called Seshi was truly amazing.”
“… … “It seemed that way to you.”
“yes. To be honest, I don’t understand her even now that she’s finished playing. “How was the water spirit able to block Cratesia’s wrath? Considering the immense power of fire that Cratesia possesses, this is something that was originally impossible.”
As she stared blankly at Millia and expressed admiration, I did the same.
The dark red sphere seen at the end was the most destructive power among the powers displayed by Celestia.
It is such an overwhelming force that it can only be stopped by the intervention of the Golden Knight. However, Milia blocked such a destructive power with her spirit, Seshi.
I had to say it was a miracle. I couldn’t explain it in any other way than that.
“I think Ceci responded to Milia’s will.”
From noble mtl dot come
And I believed that the miracle occurred because Cesi had such great thoughts about Milia.
“Do you mean that it is a bond between a spiritist and a spirit?”
“yes. “I think so.”
While answering carefully, I looked blankly at Millia.
Even though Milia’s pale complexion had already been treated, I felt a little out of place.
When the therapist said that she needed to recuperate for a while, Millia was reminded of how much she had overexerted herself.
‘Milia didn’t give up until the very end.’
She probably knew better than anyone else that she had her own limitations. Nevertheless, she believed in Seshi and tried to overcome her own limitations.
That’s why the miracle appeared.
“Celestia. “You said you wanted to ask Milia something.”
I spoke without hesitation.
“… … yes. “I told you so.”
I looked into her eyes as she calmly met me and spoke lightly.
“Then ask me directly. There’s no need to ask Millia.”
In the end, Millia couldn’t last more than 5 minutes.
The moment the power was blocked, Millia lost consciousness.
I didn’t want Millia to have to answer anything about me. In the last sparring, Karite seemed to have given her some kind of answer, but it couldn’t have been a pleasant experience for her.
And there’s no need for Milia to go through that again.
“is it so. It would definitely be better that way.”
Looking at Celestia, who was smiling slightly, I slowly waited for her to speak.
What was it that she was so curious about about me that made her suggest that Karite and Milia have something to ask about me?
Celestia looked at me as if thinking for a moment and then opened her mouth.
“Before you ask any questions, I think you might be quite curious. “Why am I interested in you, and why did I express that interest to your lover?”
After hearing the words that followed, my eyes naturally blurred.
If you think about it, it was like that.
‘Why are you interested in me?’
I thought of Celestia as an opponent I would face in future matches, but I thought of her as the opposite s*x and was not conscious of her.
“Your father told me about you.”
“If it’s your father… … .”
“Please go to the Yurisian duchy.”
“… … !”
I immediately had to raise my eyes at the words that followed.
Celestia let out a small laugh, as if it was funny to see me like that, and even though I was looking at her, I felt like my hair had turned completely white.
‘What a ridiculous thing…’ … .’
The fact that the duchy’s head was interested in me despite my past imperial servitude was a completely different story. Even if I have the protection of Rachel, a member of the royal family, I am not safe at all if I have the enormous power of the Duke.
“Your father thinks so highly of you. So much so that I want to give myself to you.”
“Well, is it okay for such a ridiculous thing to happen?”
Without realizing it, I ended up denying her words. That’s why what she said right now didn’t make any sense.
“Yes. I really think so too. “I was very surprised the first time I heard your father’s suggestion.”
Even though she answered lightly in her voice, I couldn’t help but stare blankly.
Celestia, the duke’s eldest daughter.
Why would she say such absurd things that she tried to give her to me?
Even after looking at the various conditions, it was impossible to simply explain it.
Dukedom within the empire refers to those with power comparable to the imperial family.
These are people who should probably be considered higher than any member of the royal family.
“My father didn’t force that idea on me. You obviously asked my doctor first. “I asked you first if I was interested in you and if I could have you as my companion.”
Unlike her calm voice, the content had an incredibly large meaning.
Rather, I felt like I was going out of my mind listening to it.
“… … .”
Even Celestia’s gaze looking at me as I swallowed without realizing it felt completely different than before.
Even now, he seems to be looking at me leisurely, but I had a strange feeling that he was evaluating me in his eyes.
And it has been like that since before.
In the past, and even before the game started today, the feeling that she was looking at me was not an illusion at all. Celestia was looking at me the whole time.
She continued to formulate opinions about what kind of person I was and whether I was someone worthy of her heart.
“So I was curious. Now that your father thinks so highly of you and several women are having relationships with you. “Do I need to be courted by you like that?”
I had to swallow my saliva again in a daze at the words he blurted out.
“… … .”
I couldn’t even answer easily.
It felt like her words and gaze were weighing me down so heavily.
“What I felt while watching the game was that you were definitely worthy of being coveted by your father. Probably no one in this stadium can match you on sheer talent. “Even me, Neriana, and Azazel can’t match your talent.”
“… … “I think you think too highly of me.”
“no. I’m just telling the truth. And considering the level of your characteristics, it makes even more sense that you have achieved this level of growth. So I came to acknowledge and accept it to some extent. “My father deserves to see you as my companion.”
I felt like I couldn’t breathe as the words continued calmly.
‘why… … .’
Is she saying this to me?
It wasn’t supposed to be like this.
“I’ve been curious about you ever since. Aside from your talent, why are so many women clinging to you? Why are they in such a relationship even though they like you and cannot have you on their own? That’s why I wanted to ask. “I wanted to hear from Karite, and this time from Milia, the specific reason why she likes you.”
“… … .”
Before I knew it, I was facing Celestia while holding my breath.
A crossroads so huge that one word can completely change the future. I was now faced with a huge choice.
“Han Tiansheng, why do you think Millia fell in love with you?”
I hesitated for a moment when I heard her voice ask calmly.
Why she likes me
‘Why do you like me?’
I never thought about it seriously.
Because we never questioned the reasons for liking each other or worried about why we liked each other.
“… … “That’s something I have to answer.”
Immediately after, the voice rang weakly and I looked down in a daze.
There, Milia, with a pale complexion, was standing up very slowly.
