I Married the Beautiful Female Protagonist In Order To Survive - Chapter 950
66. I’m still a delicate and charming young girl
Among the students at Lubyanka Academy who need to take this ‘final test’, almost no one complained about Letty’s decision. After a few days of preparation, they were already packed and ready to set off.
The destination, as Letty had previously decided, was the Imperial Military Administration Zone in the northwest of the Rosia Empire—Siberia. In my impression, the climate there is harsh, with snow falling all year round. Apart from the endless snowfields and the deep mountains covered in white snow, there are only the beasts that can survive in this harsh climate, and… the elite troops of the Rosia Empire stationed there.
The combat effectiveness of troops trained in such harsh climates can be imagined. So, even though Siberia is such a harsh place, it has been regarded as a beautiful holy land by the tough Rosians. Some students even look happier than they would on a spring outing for this trip.
They were happy, but I, who had to “remind” Letty and was asked to come along by Letty, was not happy at all. Unlike my companions Reyev and Ludwig, who had their own reasons for not fearing the increasingly biting cold, Ludwig could even yawn and sleep in such a situation!
If it weren’t for Reyev, who was addicted to being a tour guide and kept introducing me to the scenery of the Rossiya Empire along the way, somewhat distracting me, I would probably be shivering by now.
“Siberia is the most important place in our Rossiya Empire. Don’t be fooled by the year-round snow; it’s also the best training ground for us Rossiyans. Normally, Siberia is not open to outsiders. Heh heh~ you got lucky this time~”
If it weren’t necessary, I wouldn’t want to seize such an opportunity at all.
But I had no choice. After all, Letty had set the “final test” of the Lubyanka Academy in this vast snowy field: all senior students of the academy would start “hunting” in Siberia, which simply meant… hunting wolves and bears, as these two carnivores dominated this snowy field.
Each student was led by a senior, hunting in groups, and the one who brought back the most prey would naturally get the corresponding “final grade” after Letty’s final judgment. Unlike other kingdoms where exams were taken in classrooms, the simple and honest Rossiya Empire even had such a fierce exam format.
I glanced at Reyev, who was talking non-stop, more like trying to chat with me than showing off her country.
“Since it’s the final exam of Lubyanka Academy, Miss Reyev, are you also participating?”
“Of course…”
The big sister, whom I asked, was about to pat her chest to prove her bravery when she suddenly thought of something and immediately deflated, hurriedly showing a girlish smile and waving her hand at me apologetically, “I-I’ll definitely participate, but I’m just here to go through the motions, hahaha~ I’m not very good at this~”
“……”
[Reyev’s overall strength ranks at the top of Lubyanka Academy.]
Come on, big sister, whether it’s my impression of you or the content of the script, it tells me that you’re actually super strong, right?
“I’m just here to observe according to Emperor Letty’s request. Miss Reyev, you don’t have to mind me, uh… just do your best.”
I thought for a moment and gave a hint to Reyev not to pretend to be weak. After all, I couldn’t let Reyev’s performance be affected by pretending to be a lady in front of me the whole time, and… if she followed me the whole time, it would be inconvenient for me to contact Letty and “remind” her.
I had some “stories” with Letty in this Siberian region. Since I couldn’t make Letty remember before, I could only come here and try my luck, hoping to find Letty’s “secret” and remind her.
If Letty still couldn’t remember? Sigh… at that time, I might not have any other choice.
[Letty suspected Euclid’s identity and shot Euclid!]
The death script Letty carried, aimed at me, was much more straightforward and blunt than the Queen’s.
After that, without giving me much time to savor this death script, the convoy of Lubyanka Academy had already arrived at the “base” in the Siberian region of the Rossiya Empire, with me shivering from the cold.
The carriage, or perhaps it would be better to call it a “wolf carriage,” came to a halt as the sled wolves stopped. As soon as they did, Reyev opened the door, and a gust of cold wind mixed with flying snow and ice shards rushed in! Unlike me, who shivered from the cold, the big sister in front of me took a deep breath, as if she was enjoying a long-awaited opportunity to get some fresh air.
“Miss Reyev, your every move has long since exposed your true nature.”
“We’ve arrived. Next, we should integrate the team and assign dormitories to everyone. I suppose Lady Letty will prepare a speech later.”
Through the snow mixed with ice shards, I could see that we had arrived at a military base of the Rosia Empire in Siberia. The convoy stretched endlessly behind us, with more students from Lubyanka Academy arriving. Some of them couldn’t wait any longer and had already gotten out of their vehicles, running towards us as if this freezing snowfield was a playground for them to frolic in.
“What about you?”
“I’ll stick with you.”
After waking up Ludwig, who had somehow managed to fall asleep in this situation, I wrapped myself in another layer of clothing and stepped out, looking quite out of place among these Rosians. However, the next moment, whether by “coincidence” or “bad luck,” Ludwig and I encountered an old acquaintance—Rudinsky, who, as a student of Lubyanka Academy, was sure to be here as well.
This guy had been sent home by Letty for being too noisy and had been lying low for a few days. Now, it seemed he had recovered quite well.
Our eyes met, and he clearly recognized Reyev and me. However…
I thought this guy would come over and taunt me because of our past grudges. I was even prepared to deal with it, but…
“Hmph!”
Rudinsky just glared at Reyev and me before hurriedly leaving!
“Tsk, what’s with that idiot?”
Reyev, who had been ready for a confrontation, looked a bit annoyed and puzzled, furrowing her brows. “Does he think he can settle old scores with me this time? Suka blyat…”
From noble mtl dot com
Um… big sister, you’re exposing your true nature…
But at times like this, it’s best to pretend you didn’t hear anything.
“It’s nothing, maybe he just came to show off. Miss Reyev, you don’t need to worry about him.”
I comforted Reyev, who was still a bit annoyed and wanted to go over and confront him.
Because… going over now would probably be meaningless.
【Rudinsky is avoiding Euclid and Reyev.】
Such a script clearly indicates that this guy… came with a certain purpose, well-prepared. Was he looking for trouble with Leyeve?
Or…
Was he coming for me?
