Became an Academy Spearman - Chapter 681
681. A huge shock & will you understand me?
***
When a person receives a really big shock, they cannot react properly at that moment.
Conversely, it was like saying that in order to react to shock, various situations or moments must be within an acceptable shock.
“… … Sir Isabelle. “What did you just say?”
And that is who I am now.
Morning after a night. This is when Sir Isabel and I greeted the morning in a more intimate atmosphere… … , I thought for a moment that I might have heard wrong.
“I was saying that Princess Lyudmila was mentioning you.”
However, the clear continuation of her voice made me swallow my saliva without thinking.
gulp.
Even as I swallowed my saliva, the focus of my eyes shook violently.
‘Ljudmilla… … .’
Her full name is Lyudmila Ruabella. She was the name of a princess with such great influence that she was ranked within the third line of succession to the imperial throne.
“I can’t believe such an amazing person is interested in me… … ?”
Even the answering voice was slightly shaking.
“Judging by your reaction, it seems you have heard of Princess Lyudmila’s name. That means your victory at the Grand Colosseum caused a great stir. Even Princess Lyudmila shows interest in you… … . Oh, it’s a little late, but congratulations on winning the Grand Colosseum. ”
“Ah, thank you.”
“Actually, I wasn’t overly surprised by the result because I didn’t doubt you would win, but the views of the people inside the imperial castle were quite different. “I felt like I thought much more highly of you than I did before.”
Even though I saw her saying something with a good meaning, my mind was still confused.
What I heard from her now about Lyudmila was definitely true. Otherwise there would be no need to tell you this.
And for me, the bigger problem was that there was no room to doubt its authenticity.
“… … .”
Tight.
While I was chewing my lips, I sighed internally.
Lyudmila Ruabella, I know her name. She appears quite often in the imperial faction structure in the story, and there are frequent conflicts with Princess Rachel that appear in several episodes.
In a word, it was ‘static’.
A being that inevitably comes into conflict due to the succession to the imperial throne, and therefore a being that must be faced as an enemy.
But that name came to me so quickly.
Originally, her name did not appear until the end of next year or almost the year after, but I heard her name ‘this year’.
“Is there anything uncomfortable?”
“no. “It’s not like that.”
Even as I answered, my heart immediately became cold.
There was quite a lot of talk about the appearance of Princess Lyudmila in the story. However, her actions are very detailed and she threatens secretly.
It is no exaggeration to say that when one is heavily involved in the imperial faction, the protagonist is threatened with almost the worst type of threat that can be expected.
A princess who mercilessly tries to eliminate anyone who blocks or gets in her way.
Lyudmila was a woman who was known to have cold blood flowing throughout her body. Looking at it that way, the fact that she was interested in me now was by no means something to be taken lightly.
“So I wanted to let you know that you may receive a royal call. Since you have already established a certain level of relationship with Princess Rachel, it is extremely unlikely that Princess Lyudmila will try to placate you. “Her Princess Lyudmila, she doesn’t try to make people from other factions her own.”
I cautiously accepted her kindness in telling me one by one.
“yes… … .”
She seemed to have little idea of the danger that Princess Lyudmila posed, but considering the current period, that was bound to be the case.
Princess Lyudmila enjoyed cleverly leaving traces of other factions while dealing with her political opponents or enemies. Judging by her external reputation, she was a very elegant and wise woman.
While Rachel, with whom I had a relationship, was relatively gentle and tried to treat others without discrimination of status, I had a strong feeling that Lyudmila was a true ‘royal family’ who knew how to use her authority extremely well.
smart.
Then, I had to stop and erase my thoughts when I heard a knock on the door.
“I’ll get up in a moment.”
“yes.”
I opened the door to see that she had hidden herself just as I said.
Crash.
Then, a woman wearing a red dress with shiny platinum blonde hair appeared there. Although she had an extremely beautiful appearance, I couldn’t help but blink at the unexpected visitor.
“… … “Aren’t you Lady Celestia?”
As the Grand Colosseum was over, I called her out loud, conscious of her title, and she paused for a moment before smiling cautiously.
“Don’t call me that high. Not Lady Celestia… … “You can just call me Celestia.”
“no. How dare I… … .”
Even as I spoke, I had no choice but to follow her and stop.
Her untimely visit was a visit, but I was not indifferent to her sudden behavior just two days ago when the finals were over.
At the end, she suddenly came into my arms, so I didn’t realize how embarrassed I was at that moment.
“Anyway, I hope you don’t treat me so hard. And I’m sorry for coming here so early in the morning, but maybe… … Do you have time today?”
Afterwards, when she asked me in a friendly voice, I paused.
It felt very strange.
‘Why am I away from Celestia…’ … .’
Does it seem like the image of Adelia who came to see me yesterday overlaps?
Now, she definitely wouldn’t have come to see me with that in mind.
“I can make time.”
“I’m so glad. “So, can you give me some time?”
But what she kept saying was almost exactly what Adelia had said to me.
‘What on earth…? … ?’
I didn’t understand it two days ago, and now I still don’t understand Celestia. Why does she show such interest and interest in me?
“I’m sorry, but could you tell me why you want to join me?”
I didn’t ask because I was particularly wary of her.
The apostle who became human has already been revealed to be Azazel, so I asked out of pure curiosity.
As much as I don’t understand, I decided to get the answer directly from her.
“If there is a reason… … Well, today is my last day here. I have to go back north tomorrow. Previously… … “I came here because I wanted to spend a little more time with you.”
He continues speaking in a hesitant yet cautious voice.
Her pale complexion, with platinum blonde hair down to her waist, did not sound like she was lying at all.
“… … “To be with me?”
So, I felt strange while answering her words in a daze.
No, that’s right. Right now, she was pushing my back to make me misunderstand.
No matter how much I tried to understand that she had a different meaning and that she was trying to meet me with a different intention, her words and actions could only mean one thing.
“yes. “I want to be with you.”
I twitched my hand without realizing it when I saw Celestia answering while avoiding my eyes, as if she was a little embarrassed.
‘This can only be seen as interest.’
It’s not just ordinary interest, she’s trying to approach me with rational interest.
I couldn’t think of any other answer other than that.
“… … yes. Let’s do that. “I will prepare and go out right away.”
And I had no other answer to her suggestion.
Celestia Yurisian.
Regardless of her enormous background as the daughter of Duke Yurisian, I personally experienced the extent of her personal power.
Incredible growth, and huge potential.
Considering the enormous possibility of wielding the power of a dragon, even if she rejected me and stayed away from me, I couldn’t stay away from her and reject her.
If you could build a friendship, it was an important person to build.
“Oh, thank you so much! “Then I will be waiting in the hall on the first floor, so please prepare slowly.”
Even now, when he smiled brightly, as if he was truly happy about what I said, and seemed to brighten up the surroundings, I had to nod awkwardly.
Crash.
As the door closed, my already complicated mind became even more complicated.
Why does this happen?
Why doesn’t every day give me a chance to catch my breath?
“excuse me… … Lord Isabelle?”
Nevertheless, I called her first, who must have been watching my conversation with Celestia.
“yes.”
Sir Isabelle appears immediately and looks at me calmly. Her eyes were staring directly at me coldly.
“First of all, I misunderstood… … I’m telling you because I think you will, but it’s not like I approached Lady Celestia separately and did some trick. “I can tell you on my own behalf that I have never done anything like that.”
“Then, Lady Celestia took a liking to you first. Is it okay for me to understand it that way?”
I had to laugh awkwardly as I watched Sir Isabelle answer so bluntly.
“… … yes.”
“And you seem to naturally accept Lady Celestia.”
Immediately after, she spoke calmly again, and I nodded cautiously.
“Personally, I don’t have any big feelings for Lady Celestia. But I don’t think I can refuse her if she approaches me like this first.”
Apart from being loved by many people, I was seeing ‘reality’.
ㅡGrand Colosseum victory.
It certainly proved my worth and gave me a lot of fame, but it wasn’t the only advantage.
For example, as Sir Isabel said a moment ago, if even Princess Lyudmila was mentioning my name, I had to be more prepared.
What if situation?
And apart from power, something bigger was needed.
‘Most significantly… … .’
Real power, not personal force.
In that sense, Duke Yurisian was able to become the greatest strength to me more than anything else.
“I’m not trying to say that I want to become a lover with Lady Celestia. “I think we need to build a good relationship, or at least a friendship.”
At the very least, it would be best if I gained more favor with her and could rely on her family in times of emergency.
“ha… … .”
Seeing Lady Isabelle sighing deeply, I cautiously approached her.
side.
He lightly kissed her lips and carefully caressed her cheek.
“I’m very sorry. Still, can you understand me like this?”
“Even if we don’t kiss like this, I know things are different from yesterday. “I understand.”
Sreuk.
I nodded as I saw her gently caressing my hand that was on her cheek.
