209 – Let’s leave right away.
It’s late at night when most people are going to sleep. Although the moon hung brightly in the sky, I felt refreshed.
“It’s almost the first time.”
It was the first time since I came to this world that I had dozed off.
I was forced to be born into a knightly family that valued me, and even enrolled in the academy in that condition.
Of course, now we have an environment where we can doze off for a while. The Faculty of Magic has regained stability, and the wizards have become more motivated than before, so it is true….
… As expected, the act of dozing off itself was not very pleasant. Now that I have some free time, I decided to push myself into rigorous training.
Your own power becomes the power of the magic world. This is because there is not a single moment when I forget this premise.
There is quite enough time. The delegates who were hungry for knowledge were given plenty of food in the form of old books.
I took a sip of tea and nodded quietly.
“By focusing on personal training for the time being….”
Knock knock─
At that time, someone carefully knocked on the room door.
Since there was no sign of life coming from outside the door, I slowly opened the door with my mind.
“Ah, flan.”
What was revealed was a woman with dark blue hair flowing down to her waist. At the same time, a golden moon floated above her black pupils. She was indeed none other than Aurora, the second princess whom I had met after a long time.
“….”
But I couldn’t help but tilt my head at Aurora’s greeting. Although her face itself was the same, her appearance was quite different from before.
He has wide arms and is wearing a pure white robe. She was more appropriately described as a priest than a princess.
Aurora slowly took her steps inside her dormitory. After she sees that my eyes are focused on her outfit, she smiles awkwardly.
She said sheepishly.
“I’m not the princess anymore. After leaving her hospital bed, she naturally stopped wearing her imperial clothes.”
Of course, it wasn’t just the clothes that changed. The arrogance on her face had been washed away and she had become docile, so even though her face itself had not changed, she seemed like a different person.
I only said one brief word.
“You look better now.”
“It looks good…” . Thank you. “Because I can hear it from you.”
Aurora smiled faintly. It was a face that I could not even imagine before. She continued as she slowly nodded her head.
“I definitely wanted to say thank you if we were to meet again. “It was all thanks to you, Plan, that I was able to think about finding something that truly suited me and that I set out to find small happiness.”
“It’s a good thing.”
I didn’t add unnecessary insults.
A lot has happened since I caught the dawn butterfly. Her face was full of signs that she had already felt a lot, so there was no need to say much at a moment like this.
Aurora looked at me with eyes full of sentiment for a while. That moment continued for quite a long time, and then at some point she opened her mouth again.
“Flan, by the way, did you check it?”
“What are you talking about?”
“This time, the imperial family will choose a hero.”
“Confirmed.”
Aurora nodded her head.
“Resigning from my position as princess was the only thing I could pursue. Through this position, Yoo Sia’s regime will be able to solidify its position, and another reason is….”
I expected that even though I didn’t hear the reason.
“Is it for me?”
“Yes. I felt like if a position like this was created, you would definitely be able to excel. “It’s my little atonement and a token of my gratitude.”
Aurora soon added in a hesitant tone.
“Of course, a seat is a seat. If your participation is not possible, I will somehow go back and make minor changes….”
“There is no need for that. “I will definitely win.”
Her answer may have shocked some people, but Aurora let out a faint laugh as if she was relieved.
“I thought he would answer that way.”
She looked somewhat happy.
“This confidence is your identity, and since you have accomplished something, you cannot doubt the answer. “I have no choice but to believe it.”
“Is that so?”
“Okay…. Looking back on our bet, it was truly absurd. But you didn’t even accomplish that.”
I also smiled a little.
During the period when we couldn’t see each other after the bet, Aurora seemed to have looked back and reflected on a lot of things.
The teacup in her hand is still warm. When the scent had spread throughout the dorm room, I opened my mouth again.
“Is this the end of business?”
“Oh, that’s not it.”
Aurora cleared her throat a few times as if what she was talking about from now on was the real point.
“Greetings are important, but of course they are not the end. “It will become known soon anyway, but I wanted to tell you in advance.”
I quietly looked into her eyes. What I meant was that I would listen intently to her story.
“You haven’t been invited to anything yet, right? “It looks like those involved in this work are having a meeting.”
“Nothing.”
“That’s the problem. “That’s the problem.”
“However, I don’t even know what the problem is.”
Then Aurora tilted her head.
“Hmm? “Except for you, all the participants, just the knights, are having a meeting together.”
I did not feel any sense of crisis even after hearing Aurora’s repeatedly emphasized tone. She seemed surprised that I was so calm, but I couldn’t understand her impatience.
I spoke first.
“It doesn’t matter what the knights do together. “The only thing that matters is winning or losing the game.”
“That’s true, though.”
“There must be a reason why you speak so strongly. “If you tell me, I will listen.”
“Most of the details of the game are decided at that meeting. That’s why I emphasize that it’s important.”
“Details?”
This is a detail that was not mentioned at all in the official document sent down from the imperial family. Even in my heart that had never felt the slightest interest, finally a little interest arose.
Aurora nodded her head.
“Okay. Details of the match. “It’s all about the details, and there are as many as three of them, so they have a huge impact on winning or losing.”
She rolls up the sleeves of her robe, which is much longer than her own arms. Her pure white hands are finally revealed to the world, with her three fingers spread out.
“That’s what it means to be a hero. “Only when it is far from ordinary in every way does it deserve to be called that.”
“I agree.”
“Therefore, the match to determine the hero does not proceed normally. “The contestants directly agree on three detailed conditions.”
“Three things….”
“I will explain it now.”
Aurora’s throat seems to be burning as she continues to talk for so long. I handed Aurora an extra teacup that was on the desk.
Originally, Maiev was going to drink it, but she left for the West Wing, saying she had a joint study with her representatives.
“Ah, thank you.”
Aurora took a sip of her tea.
Because the habits from her time living in the imperial family had not been completely shaken off, her movements were very old-fashioned.
“First, the duel location is designated. “You can point to any place you want, and it can be a place with deep meaning or terrain that is advantageous for battle.”
“What about the second?”
“You can set the duel time. And finally….”
Aurora paused for a moment.
“You can decide which weapon to duel with.”
Place, time, weapon. The conclusion was that three things were determined in advance as follows. I understood two parts right away, but I didn’t quite understand the last one.
“Each knight wields a different sword, right?”
“To reach the state of sword mastery, it is not enough to sharpen just one sword…. That’s what it means.
“….”
Flann held his chin and pondered for a moment.
“Pretty cocky. “I think so.”
“What is it? Ah…. “For not inviting you?”
“The third condition.”
“Third condition?”
I nodded.
Knights are greatly influenced by swords, but wizards are not particularly limited by weapons such as wands or staffs.
Because collecting and refining mana is magic and that’s all, there is no need for weapons.
Of course, there are cases where a wizard is very particular about the weapon…. That’s usually the case with warlocks.
“The wizard is not limited by weapons, so he has a huge advantage in the third condition.”
“That’s what I heard.”
“The fact that such absurd conditions were maintained….”
Aurora nodded her head as if she understood.
“I understand. “It means you don’t even care about wizards.”
I immediately walked towards the door.
Aurora blinks her eyes.
“… “Where are you going?”
“We’re leaving right away.”
There was no reason to hesitate, and there was no reason to hesitate.
