156 – Carol and Cecilia

Garou’s true sword struck Edan.

Kwaaang!!!

“Keuaaa!!!”

Kwagak!

Edan forcibly twisted the sword as it fell, and let the sword slip away.

However, Edan’s heart was stained with astonishment.

‘What power!?’

I was confident in my strength, but whenever I received each of Garou’s slashes, I felt the bones in my whole body tingle.

‘This bastard has the skills I’ve seen so far…!?’

While I was thinking, Garou’s next attack continued.

Break love!

“Ah, you ignorant bastard!”

Kwaaang!!!

I dodged by rolling on the floor.

It’s out of shape, but now Garou was seriously trying to kill himself.

‘Such an asshole!’

Ethan immediately jumped up and fired an aura blade.

Love and love!

Aura Blade that flies at a fairly high speed.

Seeing such swordsmanship, Garou…

Quaang!!

“…!?”

After destroying it with my bare hand wrapped in aura, I wield the real sword in my other hand.

Love and love!

This time, the Aura Blade flying towards Edan.

Ethan hurriedly took a defensive stance, but…

Kwachang!!!

“aaa!!”

The sword broke.

Thanks to this, Ethan, who received an aura with his bare body, rolled on the floor and began to scream.

“Keah! You son of a b*tch! I’ll kill you…!”

While talking, Garou approached at some point.

“I said I broke it.”

“ah.”

Die.

Garou was holding his sword high and striking it down.

‘Really kill?’

There was no hesitation at all in his sword.

An aura blade that strikes with determination as if it were going to slash Ethan.

“Sah, save me!!”

The moment Edan, who had a premonition of death, shouted, another Aura Blade crossed the arena.

Whee ae ae ae Kwaang!!

“…!?”

“…!?”

Garou’s sword flew away in a sudden surprise attack.

Caang!

Garou, who saw the sword flying to the end of the gymnasium for a moment, slowly turned his gaze to the entrance.

“Who… Sylvia?”

“Garou.”

Sylvia was next to Aren who threw the aura.

Sylvia moved slowly and approached Garou.

Then he swung his right hand.

Damn!

“……”

“……”

Sylvia slapped Garou on the cheek and spoke in a cold voice.

“It’s obvious.”

“……”

“I made a mistake. I wasn’t telling you.”

“Sylvia…”

“shut up.”

Sylvia turned her head and spoke to the gathered students.

“Everybody get out!”

“……”

“……”

Despite Sylvia’s words, the students remained in their seats, stunned.

Sylvia frowned and shouted again.

“Get out!! I can’t hear you!!”

rumble

As she felt the mana in her voice, the students also began to move slowly.

Sylvia found Delphine among the students and said,

“Delphine, take Ethan to the infirmary.”

“… okay.”

Delphine took Ethan to the medical room without saying anything.

Sylvia looked at Garou again and said.

“You go to the principal’s office. You report yourself.”

“… It was a formal duel.”

“I know, you’re not that stupid. So tell me yourself.”

Sylvia turned her back and spoke coldly once again.

“Don’t talk to me for a while.”

“… Silvia I…”

“It’s not for me.”

Sylvia, who interrupted Garou, glared at him and said.

“This duel was for you. It was never for me.”

“……”

“Stop going.”

After that, Sylvia approached Aren and Tia again.

Sylvia said.

“Aren Difus.”

“huh?”

“… Thank you for the moment before.”

“No what…”

It’s embarrassing when this woman talks like this.

As Aren nodded in dismay, Sylvia walked past them and left the arena.

“You guys, go to the classroom now.”

“Okay, go in Sylvia.”

Tia nodded and saw her off.

Aren looked at Sylvia, who walked away for a moment, then said.

“It’s not a quiet place either.”

“That’s right. Just like you and Aaron are the problem at our academy, Irene and Sylvia are the problem here.”

“… Huh? Me?”

“no?”

‘Why do you have to do the opposite with a madman like that?’

As Aren frowned, Garou, who was still in the gymnasium, approached them.

“excuse me…”

“huh?”

“Thank you for just before.”

Saying so, he bowed his head to Aren.

‘Oh, this is how a true normal person is.’

It feels like seeing a normal person for the first time.

Aren nodded in satisfaction and said:

“No, I’m glad I didn’t have a big problem.”

“Yeah… Thanks to you, I was able to finish without getting hit. Thank you.”

Saying that, Garou glanced at Tia.

“Are you… Tia Cloud?”

“Yes… Is that Garou Allen?”

“That’s right. Did you hear from Sylvia?”

“Yeah, when I was little…”

Since then, the two have not spoken.

Although they had heard about each other from Sylvia, the two did not know each other.

Garou slightly bowed his head to her and left.

“I’m going now. Be careful going in.”

“Oh, yes. Go.”

As soon as Garou left the gymnasium, only Aren and Tia remained.

“Hmm, he seems to be a more gentle person than I thought, but why did he do something like a duel?”

“Well… more than that, let’s go. Lunchtime is over now.”

Tia said that and took Aren’s hand.

“…that, hand…”

“Why? Hate it?”

“It’s nice…but if anyone sees…”

“If you like it, why did you get kicked out? As for my fiancée. Let’s go.”

‘I’m ashamed of myself too.’

Aren smiled and looked at Tia’s face.

Tia’s face is very red today.

***

Holidays have arrived.

Break love! Hung love liquid!

In the backyard of the dorm, Karl Valesia was swinging his sword by himself.

‘This isn’t it…’

Carol swung her sword and was lost in thought.

It was to find a difference with Duke Hamel.

‘At that time, my brother was like this…’

Break love! wickedness!

“Huh? Just now!”

It felt good.

It feels like cutting paper with scissors.

You have to live this feeling.

“What did my brother say then? What kind of nonsense about cutting water…”

“brother?”

“Wow!?”

Carol looked away in surprise at the sudden voice.

“Lea, Lia’s sister?”

“Hello Carol.”

“I’m surprised. Did your sister come out to train too?”

“huh.”

“But why aren’t you going to the gymnasium?”

“I want you to see.”

When Cecilia pointed to her dormitory and said, Carol was convinced.

‘It’s clearly visible.’

Carol said with a light smile.

“Sister, shall we train together after a long time?”

“Did you come for that?”

“Put.”

This is it.

I liked seeing my sister like this.

“But what did Duke Hamel say?”

“Huh? Ah~ I just stopped by the Duke’s house this time. To learn swordsmanship and see Luna noona.”

“how is it?”

“It’s okay, rather than being too healthy? They say he’s been pouring half of his day into swordsmanship.”

Carol’s words brought a smile to Cecilia’s lips.

It’s nice to know that your rival is back again.

Looking at her smile, Carol thought.

‘Does sister still like older brother?’

Cecilia liked Hamel.

Recently, the relationship has deteriorated rapidly, so I don’t know, but from what I know, she still likes Hamel.

‘Shall I ask?’

I thought so, but I didn’t have the courage.

If she even agrees…

‘……’

I didn’t want to think about it.

Cecilia was rumored to be in a relationship with Hamel, so it was even more difficult to ask questions.

“Carl? What are you doing?”

“Huh? Oh, no. Let’s fight.”

Carol held up a wooden sword.

Cecilia also took up a wooden sword and swung it.

chain fluid! earth!

“Ugh, what is it?”

“tips.”

It was a wooden sword that collided, but the impact moved to my arm.

Carol hesitated for a moment, then swung the wooden sword again.

chain fluid! earth!

“like this?”

“… good job.”

Cecilia smiled and swung the wooden sword again.

Correspondingly, Carol also swung a wooden sword.

After focusing on sparring for a while, the two stopped the wooden swords at lunchtime.

“Whoa, whoa, thanks sister.”

“Whoa, no. It was fun.”

Cecilia wipes her sweat.

A few strands of her hair stuck to her face, probably from sweating quite a bit.

‘pretty…’

After appreciating the situation for a while, Carol opened her mouth involuntarily.

“sister.”

“huh?”

“Do you still like Hamel?”

“……”

Carol was inwardly surprised when she asked the question.

I didn’t intend to ask, but after sharing swords with her, I somehow got the courage to ask.

But while I’m bewildered, in my heart…

‘What shall I answer?’

I had this thought.

If she denies… I…

“no.”

“uh?”

“I don’t like Hamel oppa anymore.”

“really!?”

Carol let out an exclamation of joy without realizing it.

Like that or not, Cecilia nodded and said.

“Yes, I like someone else.”

“…… uh?”

Did you hear me wrong?

Cecilia noona, no one else, could say something like that…

From noble mtl dot com

“better…”

The moment Cecilia was about to speak, she remembered her conversation with Aren and kept her mouth shut.

‘sister.’

‘huh.’

‘I’m really happy that my sister likes me.’

‘huh. I like you, Aren.’

‘… Big, but that’s only my sister and me, isn’t it?’

‘huh.’

‘So don’t go around talking to anyone. It’s ‘our’ job anyway. I don’t want other people to get in our way.’

‘okay.’

When Cecilia woke up from her flashback and kept her mouth shut, Carol asked her as if urging her.

“Who, who? Who is it? Someone I know?”

“… you do not have to know.”

Crying

‘This older sister…’

You still don’t see me as a man.

Carol felt as if something was rising deep in her heart.

“Tell me who it is.”

“next time.”

“Why can’t you talk?”

“I’ll stop going.”

Cecilia really turned her back.

Carol quickly approached him and grabbed Cecilia’s wrist.

“Carl?”

“Tell me, sister.”

“… what’s the matter?”

Cecilia said with an uncomfortable expression.

“I’ll tell you later.”

“Tell me now.”

“No…”

“sister.”

After cutting off Cecilia’s words, Carol looked her in the eye and said,

“I like you.”

“……?”

Cecilia was unable to react to the sudden confession.

Carol spoke again.

“I’ve been in love with you since the old days.”

“……”

“It’s true. My first love is my older sister, and I’ve only been looking for her until now.”

“……”

“Sister… me and…”

Carol squeezed Cecilia’s hand and said.

“Get out on the premise of marriage.”

“……”

Carol said in a sorrowful voice.

Cecilia looked at Carol’s face without saying anything for a while.

And after a while, he said with a light smile.

“Thank you, Carol.”

“……”

“But I’m sorry.”

Cecilia let go of Carol’s hand and said.

“Nuna, there is someone I like.”

“sister.”

“I really like that person.”

“… can’t I do it?”

“… Sorry, Carol is a very precious and good younger brother to me.”

Cecilia said with an apologetic smile.

“Because Carol is cool… I’ll be able to find someone else soon.”

“…… sister.”

Carol held her hand once again and said.

“Can’t you just give me one chance? I really like you! I would do anything for you!”

“… sorry.”

Cecilia escaped from Carol’s grasp again.

“Okay… I have someone I love.”

“…… Who is that person?”

At this question, Cecilia averted her eyes as if embarrassed.

Carol asked after seeing her reaction.

“Are you someone I know?”

“……”

“Are you really not Hamel?”

“no.”

Cecilia answered right away.

Observing her reaction, Carol thought.

‘The man my sister and I go out with these days.’

The chances are not zero.

But since he was someone else’s fiancé, he had never thought of it that way.

Carol carefully opened her mouth.

“I’m sorry if I’m wrong… is it… Aren?”

“……”

Cecilia did not answer.

However, since he had known her for several years, Carol could know the answer just by looking at her small reaction.

“… that’s right.”

“……”

There was no conversation between the two after that.
