I Became the Male Lead who was Clinging onto the Female Leads - I Became the Male Lead who was Clinging onto the Female Leads chapter 40

40 – I hear thunder (1)

After that, the same days continued.

“Yuuujin! Please stop!”

“I’m busy!”

Justia tried to get closer, and Eugene tried to get farther away.

The absurd chase between the two continued every day. The members who watched it were embarrassed and felt bitter at first, but they got used to it over time.

“Friends! There are so many good things in the world besides women!”

There was a significant share of Shilian.

If I left the public opinion of the swordsmanship department alone, I would be in a position where I would be buried in the ground on good terms with Eugene by the enraged male students, so I had to do my best to change public opinion.

Like that, the week on the island passed as calmly as the sea.

It was already the sixth night.

“It’s too bad we’ll be back tomorrow morning! Tonight is our last night on the island, so let’s have the best food and drinks!”

Silian revealed the best ingredients and drinks for her dinner.

“It’s beef!”

“Wine! Drinking beer and then drinking wine!”

“Let’s really eat and die today!”

“It’s good that you joined the swordsmanship department!”

The members hugged each other and ran around, then started moving busily to prepare for dinner.

In the midst of that, there were two men and women holding onto their knees and facing each other…….

“Heo Eok. Huh.”

“Ha ha. Ha.”

It was Eugene and Justia.

“Eugene, you really are. Ha. Really too much ha.”

“Heo Eok. If you don’t follow me Huh Eok. It works.”

“Even if I die, I won’t give up. Ha. You did ha.”

Justia let out a long breath and opened her mouth with her resigned face.

“Listen to me for a second after dinner is ready. Then I won’t follow you any more.”

The day on the island is almost coming to an end, so you may wonder what kind of meaning this proposal has, but it was meaningful to Eugene.

His wish was to sleep comfortably, even on his last night.

‘If the price is to listen to me.’

It wasn’t even that difficult.

“Good. Call me when it’s time to talk.”

“Yes.”

The two of them split up to help everyone prepare dinner.

After all the preparations for dinner were over, Del delivered a toast.

“We have developed a deep friendship for this week, and it will be of great help in leading the future of the empire…….”

“Eugene, let’s go.”

“Yes.”

Eugene and Justia got away from everyone and headed to the right place.

There were those who noticed the strange feeling of the two, the female seniors of the swordsmanship club.

“Don’t those two look really suspicious?”

“I can see it.”

“I absolutely have to watch this.”

For those girls who first pick wine when they hear a friend’s love story, the love story of someone close to them is more than a sword (?) Arousing interest.

As long as the person in question was Justia, the 5th Princess of the Empire, beef and wine were no longer in sight.

“Should I go?”

“I must go!”

They exchanged glances and nodded. They pat Silin’s shoulder as he eats the meat next to them! After being caught.

“What, what?”

“Silin. Let’s go see something good with her sisters!”

“Is it good?”

“You should know by now!”

I don’t know what more Silin needs to know, as she is confessed to by men every day. They grabbed her cylinder and lifted it up.

“Let’s go! Let’s go!”

“Let’s go to Silin too!”

“Wait a minute!”

The steak she forked with a fork fell to the plate. Silene looked at her steak with her devastated eyes, but she was already being grabbed and dragged away by the female seniors.

In the evening, the sunset glows finely in red.

Only the sound of the sea, colored reddish, can be heard.

“So what do you want to talk about?”

“That… ….”

Eustia stopped her words and came close enough to touch each other’s breaths. She put her hand on Eugene’s chest and opened her mouth.

“This might be a bit long. Can you listen?”

“… ….”

If someone else was like this, I would have asked you to tell me only the business. Since her opponent was also serious about her 5th princess, Eugene quietly nodded her head.

“It was before I was born. My mother…….”

The stories that started like that were mostly stories Eugene knew.

Her mother was a woman with a beautiful appearance who met the emperor’s eyes.

She spent several nights with the emperor, and she became pregnant with his child.

She conveyed her intention that she would give birth to a child alone and live a quiet life without her greed to enter her imperial family.

However, the emperor could not leave her alone and took her in as his concubine. She thought that it would be better to be inside the imperial family rather than the harsh outside.

That’s how all the misfortune started.

It was an obvious story.

Shortly after Justia came out of the world, the emperor fell ill and her consciousness faded.

Then, Princess Jeong and her concubines severely harassed her mother in order to get rid of the power of Justia, who would become a competitor to her children.

From noble mtl dot com

Her mother, who was usually weak, quickly fell ill and emaciated, and before Justia could utter her first words, she passed away.

After the emperor recovered his body, everything was too late. Justia grew up alone in her lonely and cold imperial family.

“I must avenge myself.”

Justia’s hand gripped Eugene’s hem.

“You must get revenge on those hateful b*tches! But I can’t start anything by myself! Someone has to help!”

“… ….”

“That is you, Eugene.”

She buried her face in her Eugene’s chest.

“I fell in love with you at first sight. I’m begging you like this i will love you all my life Come with me. You have more talent than anyone else. If you help me, becoming an empress is not a dream either. I don’t need any power You just need revenge. After I become empress, you can do everything in the empire as you please.”

So Eugene, please love me.

It was a very heartbreaking story.

There was no doubt about its sincerity. It’s just ‘beginning’.

After the words that I fell in love with you at first sight, most of them were lies. The words that you don’t need power or that you want to do everything in the empire are true, but…….

Yujin laughed bitterly.

She didn’t think that Justia was wrong.

As her infancy is responsible for most of the process of forming human cognition, she must have only come up with this method after her cold and unhappy childhood.

I don’t even know what love is. Love is a feeling that is difficult to give unless you receive it.

‘So I shouldn’t hate it.’

A pitiful person who had an unhappy childhood.

Instead, there was nothing to do with her request.

Her story was pitiful and brought tears to my eyes, but people without a story were rather rare in the world.

From Eugene’s poor father, stories overflowed right away. It was natural for her to lead a more pitiful life than Justia.

So, Eugene said this.

“I don’t like the princess.”

“…… Why?”

“Even the princess doesn’t like me.”

“What do you mean? I like you! Really!”

Bewildered, Justia quickly shed tears.

Those tears themselves must be sincere, but the problem was that they came not from the sadness of not being able to love, but from the bitterness of not being able to take revenge.

“You don’t like my face? All the men were so happy when they saw me that they didn’t know what to do! Why are you doing that!”

“It’s not that kind of problem.”

“No! Men are all the same! Aren’t all pretty and young girls good?”

“… ….”

Huh? Doesn’t it make sense to say that?

Suddenly having nothing to say, Eugene barely opened his mouth.

“Anyway, I can’t. Sorry. I can’t go out with you if I don’t even like you.”

“…… I don’t like you, so why can’t I date you…… ?”

Justia had her blank face as if she really didn’t understand.

‘If I say more, it won’t mean anything.’

Yujin smiled bitterly and turned around, saying her last words.

“I’m sorry. I’ll pretend I didn’t hear the confession.”

“… ….”

Justia stared blankly at Eugene’s back with a devastated face.

*

“Awesome jackpot!”

“What the hell is this!”

Hidden behind a large rock, the female seniors made all sorts of fuss and talked about what had just happened.

“The princess was beaten by Eugene!”

“Lower your voice! Get caught!”

“Your voice is the loudest!”

They tried to calm their excitement by covering each other’s mouths. Of course, there was no easy way to calm down.

The girls pinched each other’s cheeks and trembled, asking if this was reality.

Silin, who was far from her, kept her silence alone.

‘Eugene was confessed to by the princess.’

In hindsight, it wasn’t unusual.

More than two months have passed since Eugene changed into a different person. It was hard to believe that Eugene had changed even after seeing it with her own two eyes. Everyone was amazed at what he had done.

His reputation as a no-brainer has completely changed, and there are always people who want to make kites with him.

If you’re not an idiot, you have no choice but to acknowledge Eugene’s ability, and everyone nods at his high potential.

So the princess’s confession was quite possible.

At this point, the difference in status between the princess and Eugene was great, but it was impossible to know what would happen after a while. It was clear that Eugene’s value would rise steeply as time passed. It was not unusual for the princess to approach in advance.

‘The princess is just the beginning.’

If Eugene’s name continues to grow and even ordinary people know his true value, the number of women who approach him with love will continue to increase.

If that happens over and over again, I’m sure Eugene will agree with me someday.

Because a man needs a woman just as a woman needs a man.

‘Someday he will have a girlfriend too.’

Good.

I was impatient because I wanted to date a girl like that.

He was the one who devoted his life to following his self.

Although she refused the princess, if she continued to live like that, she would be able to get a crush on a woman of the same level as Silin.

It was a good thing from his point of view.

It’s a good thing…….

‘Why am I in such a bad mood?’

Why do I feel this way when Eugene has nothing to lose by making him his lover?

‘I don’t understand.’

I’ve chewed my heart over and over again, but I never liked Eugene.

Even so, she was in a bad mood imagining Eugene making her lover and having fun.

“But to be honest, I am a bit surprised.”

“Did Eugene admire the princess?”

“Yes. If it’s the princess, there’s no man I’d honestly say no to.”

“Right. I never imagined that there would be a man who would reject the princess.”

“What did Eugene just say when he said no?”

“She doesn’t like it. That’s why she can’t date her.”

“Wow… ….”

One of the senior ladies exclaimed.

“Is Eugene secretly romantic?”

“Sure. To be honest, if it was the princess, I would think about dating her.”

“I think I would have done that even if I was a man.”

‘Everything is true.’

Silin, who listened to the female seniors, agreed with them.

She thought that a new lover would be born when Justia confessed.

The reason, of course, is that Justia’s appearance is beautiful.

The reason Eugene followed Silin like crazy in the past was also her appearance. The princess’s appearance was not lacking even compared to her own.

If she were the Eugene of the past, when she was given the chance to date the princess, she would have accepted it right away and smiled.

‘But he refused.’

There was no other reason for the refusal. The reason was that she just didn’t like her.

Going a little further, the reason was that the princess didn’t like her.

Looking at the story of the princess, the reason she confessed her love to Eugene was to put her imperial power in her hands.

‘I don’t know.’

Has his taste changed from just looking at his appearance?

Does his appearance no longer fill his last name?

‘I don’t know.’

She doesn’t know what’s on his mind, so whatever she thinks is a guess.

‘I don’t even know why I’m thinking this way.’

The longer her thoughts continued, the more stupid she felt.

Silin shook her head, trying to clear her thoughts.
