Became an Academy Spearman - Chapter 668



668. Date with Adelia

***

Cheonseong left the room and soon had to meet someone.

“… … “Instructor Adelia?”

I was really surprised when I saw her in front of me.

Everything from the emerald-colored hair that gives off a vivid presence to the beautiful face with a soft yet kind face underneath.

“Are you surprised by my sudden visit?”

“Oh, yeah… … . “I thought you would be at the Academy at this time.”

I nodded absentmindedly at her smiling face, but was cautious.

I’m sure I saw her yesterday too. Because I couldn’t not see her watching her day by Ariya’s side, and after her award ceremony was over, she had a short conversation and congratulated me on her win.

And I never saw her again after that. So many people found her day, and as if swept up in it, I couldn’t think about her again.

But the next day, today, a weekday after the weekend, she came to see me.

“You don’t have any plans today, right?”

Her voice was light, but I nodded absentmindedly as I saw her in a pure white dress rather than the usual instructor uniform.

“… … doesn’t exist.”

As I was answering, the thought of meeting Azazel suddenly occurred to me, but it was quickly pushed to the back of my mind.

Adelia was looking at me with anticipation right now in front of me. When I thought about what kind of feelings she must have had when she came to see me, I couldn’t give her any other answer.

“Good for you. Well then, spend the day with me. In fact, I thought this would be the case, so I deliberately set aside time today.”

A faint smile escaped me as I saw her smiling softly as if the surroundings would become brighter.

As I soon walked out of the inn with her, I suddenly felt it.

It’s been a long time since I spent time alone with Adelia.

“… … ”

I glanced to the side.

And as if by chance, our eyes met, and we naturally looked into each other’s eyes.

Even just by looking at his eyes, I could vaguely feel his emotions.

Heat.

That too was suppressed heat. When I felt her feelings for me just through the intersection of gazes, I realized how wrong I was.

‘I didn’t mean to make her come to me.’

I had to go find her. That was right. Nevertheless, Adelia, who came to visit me like this, made time with me like this.

I realized later that even if the order was changed, there was a very big change.

“sorry.”

So, the first thing I did was offer an apple.

“What are you sorry about?”

Adelia, who burst out laughing at my words, naturally asked me back, and I answered obediently.

“just… … “I’m sorry for everything.”

There were more than one or two things she felt sorry for. So she had no choice but to answer like this. I’m sorry for everything.

“I just need you to know that I’m sorry. To be honest, it’s a shame that we don’t get to see each other often, and I’m very disappointed. “I understand the situation, so I don’t necessarily want to blame you.”

I felt nothing but gratitude as I saw her putting her heart into her calm voice.

My relationship with her was a romantic one.

Clearly, that is how we established our relationship with each other. But I realized something big myself. I knew that I was not doing my job, that I was not doing anything that I should have done, not as Han Cheon-seong as a cadet, but as Adelia’s lover.

And on those days, she was understanding and considerate. That wasn’t because they were instructors and cadets.

Compared to Carly, who was in the same instructor’s class, spending a lot of time with me, I spent a lot of time with Adelia.

And I thought it was too cowardly to ask her to understand this relationship.

‘Even now… … .’

Let’s do it right.

As sorry as I am, I should have done better and shown greater affection.

Sreuk.

That’s why I stretched out my hand without hesitation. Even though I knew it was outside with many people, I boldly took her hand.

I flinch.

“Cadet Han Cheon-seong… … ?”

When she looked at me in confusion for a moment, I smiled without any problem.

I know that the heat from the touching hands brings a little joy, but I said it without thinking about it.

“I’m just holding hands.”

I know it’s out there now, and I know my face is pretty well known. And Adelia, who was next to me, also had a beautiful appearance that was so powerful that no one could see her.

Still, I wanted to express it.

Not only that I clearly have affection for her, but my neglectful attitude so far wasn’t because I didn’t have feelings for her… … .

“… … “So it’s Sonman?”

Seeing her cautiously accepting my actions, I dared to answer.

“yes. “Just your hands.”

In fact, I would like to express more than that, but given how we are now, I can somehow explain it and move on.

It is said that there is still a level of intimacy expressed between instructors and cadets.

Sreuk.

As I felt the strength of her gently holding my hand, a vivid joy filled my heart.

rest.

However, if that break was time spent with a loved one, it was the perfect time.

So we casually walked down the street together.

Rather than moving with any particular destination in mind, we just walked around the streets aimlessly, focusing on the significance of being together.

But it all came to me in a different and completely different way.

More than anything, I felt good.

A vivid joy filled my heart, but on the other hand, another heart appeared.

‘I want to get closer.’

I definitely thought I had proven my worth. I showed my best by winning the Grand Colosseum. Still, there were times when I felt my inadequacies.

Just like now.

-Instructors and cadets.

I haven’t gotten out of that rut yet.

Therefore, even though we were together and sharing our hearts, I could not act more confidently towards her.

I know that if I express my feelings beyond this, others will see our relationship as something beyond that of an instructor and a cadet.

“… … .”

Suddenly, my eyes fell on her.

“They all look so pretty.”

Looking intently at the various accessories listed on the stall.

Outside of the academy, Adelia looked different to me in plain clothes, a one-piece dress, rather than a neat uniform.

It seemed as if he was not an instructor.

So I felt like I was inadvertently making a mistake.

From noble mtl dot come

‘I am more… … .’

Wouldn’t it be okay to express your feelings to her?

Obviously, since we are instructors and cadets, we have to meet each other without being seen by others, but that wasn’t the case now. We were spending time together in front of so many people.

Rather than a relationship between an instructor and a cadet, they are spending time like a couple, which is common everywhere… … .

“How about these earrings? “Isn’t it pretty?”

“Yes, it’s really pretty.”

“Yes? I quite like it too, so should I choose this one?”

Even though my answer was nothing special, she gave me a bright smile and looked at me. Adelia seemed to have made up her mind and chose the earrings she told me about.

“Hey, with such a pretty girl by your side, are you going to give me just one earring as a gift? “At this point, why don’t I put on another necklace?”

When the merchant tried to sell me more in a sly voice, I almost unconsciously agreed.

It was a street vendor anyway. The accessories sold here are not that expensive.

“Oh, we are not lovers.”

But then, when Adelia carefully shook her head in denial, I stopped.

“Hey, it’s not like we’re lovers. “I can tell just by looking at each other that honey is dripping from your eyes.”

I laughed very awkwardly at the voice that followed, and Adelia also smiled as if she was embarrassed and quickly finished the calculation.

Jerk.

As I walked away, leaving the street vendor behind, I became aware of her feelings, even if I didn’t want to know.

‘There is a certain line set.’

Adelia, who came to see me just now, clearly did not look like an instructor. She looked like a woman who had come to meet her lover, showing off her great beauty.

But deep inside, she was worried that an accident might happen during her time with me.

Although she has accepted the idea of ​​walking hand in hand with me, she is extremely careful about showing anyone a relationship beyond that.

It was a subtle difference.

We act so close together that anyone would see us as lovers, but when this situation becomes an issue externally, she leaves room for her to say that she met me as an instructor… … .

“Cadet Han Cheon-seong.”

“Oh, yes. “Instructor.”

Then, when I stared blankly at the sound of her voice breaking me out of my thoughts, I saw that she was smiling softly.

“Are you sad right now?”

“no. Why do I… … “I must be disappointed, instructor.”

He quickly shook his head and strongly denied it.

It was absolutely ridiculous.

If I was disappointed because of her attitude just a moment ago, how much would Adelia’s heart actually hurt when she came to see me? I shouldn’t be upset with her now.

“is it so? “I hope Cadet Han Cheon-seong is disappointed with me.”

Tuk.

I blinked involuntarily at the words that followed.

There was no hesitation in his remarks.

As I suddenly looked around, I realized it too late. She scattered the mana around her, completely blocking her sound from escaping.

“And I think Cadet Han Tiansheng already knows, but I have no intention of expressing my affection for Cadet Han Tiansheng in front of others.”

“I understand… … there is.”

“Instructors and cadets. Because that’s our position now… … Actually, I feel really sorry too. Because if you feel the same way, you want to answer that you are a lover and act more freely. That’s why I was so happy when I heard you describe us as lovers a little while ago.”

She expresses her affection so that no one else nearby can hear, but only I can hear.

And that was all I felt.

The lust she has for me. Her eyes were filled with such deep emotions that they should be described as ‘lust’ rather than mere affection.

“… “I was happy too.”

Even as I answered her answer in a daze, my heart continued to tickle.

Even though my heart was pounding, there was some heat in the air.

Even now, we were walking through the city together. And they move and talk calmly while being watched by countless people.

But it was as if they were whispering to each other.

So that only each other can hear the affection they have for each other… … .

Just because of that, time passed very quickly.

It didn’t seem like we had done anything that big, but before we knew it, it was lunch.

Jing!

And as we entered the restaurant, we naturally headed to a space located in the interior.

Although it is a window seat on the second floor, it is a relatively corner space, so it is difficult for people to focus their attention.

That in itself felt very strange.

Sreuk.

As we quickly placed our orders with the waiter who came to take our orders, we all looked at each other.

“… … .”

“… … .”

They face each other and secretly cross their gaze.

I felt like I knew it without having to say it out loud.

How do they look at each other?

Sreuk.

Then, when she gently reached out and touched my hand, a smile escaped me without my knowledge.

“It tickles.”

I also gently held her hand and spoke from an angle that I couldn’t see from other tables, and Adelia gently rested her chin on the table with her other hand.

“What were you thinking a moment ago?”

“I keep looking at the instructor, what else can I think of?”

After giving such an obvious answer, Adelia gently curled the corners of her mouth.

Even her strange smile seemed so attractive to me.

-Tuk.

It hit me so suddenly.

“… !”

Without realizing it, I looked at her with my eyes wide open.

Her legs were touching me under the table.

It wasn’t even a shoe.

Sreukssuruk.

I swallowed my saliva involuntarily at her direct action of rubbing my leg.

“Adelia, instructor?”

“Call me Adelia.”
