The Goddess Is Obsessed With Me - The Goddess Is Obsessed With Me chapter 71
“What?”
The sharp eyes and the sharp voice that matches it
Beyond dissatisfaction, a really absurd voice comes over me.
“……”
Hearing a hostile voice right away, he instantly regrets this choice.
However, as he stares at the expression on his face that looks as calm as possible, he can barely squeeze out his courage.
“Who are you to meddle with Shigile Marika…”
I didn’t ask because I didn’t really know who he was, the vague sense of identity heightens the tension.
“Hmm… so daring, brave… or stupid.”
A male student staring at me with a smirk worthy of the hostility sent to me
This vast space was dyed with a stillness where only silence exists for a moment, and most of the students stop what they are doing and begin to cast their eyes towards it.
“Harold…!”
Marika, embarrassed by my actions, tried to stop her, but the situation already seemed irreversible.
“You don’t know who I am? If that’s true, let me tell you.”
He looked down at me with a sneering smile as if he was trying to provoke, and then a dignified and dignified voice resounded in this place.
“I am Abram Aribi on Constera, the real brother of Marika who is in front of you now, and the Crown Prince who is number one in the line of succession to the throne.”
At that declaration, everyone shuddered as if in trembling, and an unknown sense of intimidation emanated.
Prince…
In fact, I noticed from the previous situation that he was Marika’s relative and higher than her, but it must have been that kind of person…
He seemed to know where his arrogant attitude was coming from.
“I’m Harold Wicker, a first-year transfer student.”
However, since I am a member of the royal family, I have to have even the slightest courtesy, and I introduced myself normally, but…
“her…”
For some reason, when Abram heard my introduction, he stifled a smirk and burst into laughter.
“Is that all?”
In what way are you asking if that’s all?
I can’t understand the intention of those words, so I tilt my head a little, then let out a shrill laugh once more, then pierce me again with my strict and sharp eyes.
“I knew it was going to be a Rubias family to get involved in the story between the royal family without fear, but no matter how much the academy’s laws follow, I’m excited…”
In the academy, there was a rule unique to the academy that suggested a wall of status in order to eliminate the complaints about power and the disadvantages of certain individuals.
“Rather, I ask, why do strangers break into family stories?”
When the voice of dissatisfaction turned towards me, to be honest, I had nothing to say.
It seemed like Marika was in trouble, so she broke in without looking back, so she couldn’t think logically, so she couldn’t even refute a natural question.
“As an acquainted student with Marika-sama, I couldn’t pass the conversation in a bad atmosphere.”
I’m just saying it’s a minimal relationship so that she doesn’t blush as much as possible…
“No matter how strict the rules and the blood that has been culled, you are mixing words with common people you have never heard of…”
That statement raises one doubt.
After all, it was a question I had been asking from the moment he introduced himself… Anyway, the question I’m feeling is…
“Cultured blood Raño… What are you talking about?”
The derogatory names that seem to despise her…
I still remember the words Marika used to introduce herself when she first met me.
The first heir of the royal family who will shoulder the future of the country…
It was as if he introduced himself as Inje, who will succeed the next king… Looking at what Abram is saying now…
“Literally, Marika is a candidate for the throne who is too weak for a royal lineage and is disappointed even by her family, and the line is at the end.”
It was as if she was so weak that she was treated with contempt even by the same bloodline.
“”
However, as if that was true, she bit her lip and frowned, but didn’t say anything as if she had nothing to say, and the light in her eyes was trying to avoid him.
Is Marika really one of the weakest members of the royal family?
However, in the previous competency measurement, I had surpassed Aris, who was ranked first in the grade…
“What do you mean? Obviously, Marika-sama introduced herself as the first heir to me.”
He nodded slightly to agree with my reaction, but his opinion did not change.
“That’s true, but to the end, I was just saying that she was the eldest daughter… If it were her talent, she was a pathetic princess who was pushed even by her younger sisters.”
At those words, Marika shouted out in a strong voice as if she couldn’t just listen anymore.
“I’m different than I was back then, brother… Now I’m not who I used to be, I’m strong enough.”
When Marika, who is fearful and confident, shares her thoughts to Abram, Abram offers her a very blatant proposal.
“Then why don’t you play a match with me right now? If the losing side gives up the right to succession… how about it?”
A confrontation in which everyone knows that they have an advantage and discusses the right to succession…
“?!”
At those words, Marika opens her eyes and kills the horse at the unfair offer.
“That… that…”
I don’t know how strong she has become, but the difference in competency between the last and first place must be too great… I could understand the reluctance to respond to Abram’s suggestion.
“Didn’t you say that you became stronger with your mouth earlier? You’re not taking responsibility for the words that the princess of a country uttered, right?”
He drives her with sloppy logic and forces her to duel with him.
“Then try to beat me, the first place in the academy, and if you can do it, I will keep my promise and hand over my current position to you.”
What an arrogant attitude, it made me feel happy.
He is already convinced of victory and is looking to use this opportunity to wipe out his rival.
“But I…”
As Marika’s voice was gradually losing her confidence, she sighed as if it was frustrating for him, and she changed the proposal.
“Are you afraid? If so, fight my second-in-command, and if you win a fight against a loyalist whom I have acknowledged, I will make it unheard of.”
After reading Marika’s expression, he flicked his fingers while changing the content of the match.
“Did you call me, Crown Prince?”
A second-year student who appears in a solemn voice as if he had waited for the signal, just looking at the atmosphere, he felt as pressured as Abram.
Whether he thought it was unreasonable to confront him directly, Abram changed the subject.
At first glance, it may seem like they are showing mercy, but if you look closely, you can’t be more ignorant than this.
For Marika to fight his loyalties, to fight with his subordinates, that is, win or lose, it is a disgrace for Marika.
She is a member of the royal family, and Abram’s loyalties are at best aristocrats and commoners, who are in a different position from her in the first place…
If Marika loses, not only her face but also the reputation of her bloodline will be tarnished.
In other words, it is to create a very good cause in front of many people to dig up a family register as a person who is not suitable for royalty who value honor.
But even if he won, it wasn’t as good as it was.
If it was completely overpowered, even if it was an equal match, it would be at a disadvantage for Marika as it is.
And… evasion of responsibility
If it was originally a duel for the right to succession… By having him fight his second person, he was avoiding any disadvantages to himself.
You could tell by looking at it as a reward… In other words, ‘If you win, I will do something that was not possible’ means that you have nothing to lose even if you lose the bet. could be argued as the incompetence of
If Marika loses, she will be pressured to give up her right to succession as it is, since she doesn’t mention anything else when she goes through the process of losing…
It was really absurd that she had to win unconditionally, and if she lost, she would lose everything.
“eww…”
I wonder how much she was concerned about this as well, so she delays her answer in response to the condition that has gotten a little more generous… No, it’s gotten worse.
“How are you, Princess?”
“Something seems to be wrong…”
From the surroundings, you can hear the whispers that seem to be concerned about her.
“But my brother… I’m sure I said it with my own mouth, but it’s hard to compete with my brother and the second person…”
I barely managed to express my injustice by squeezing out my voice, but…
“Then you admit defeat yourself?”
At those words, Marika closed her mouth, which had barely been revived.
“No matter how much you fight with Abram-sama’s loyalists, it’s not too much of a freshman’s competency…”
“That person is Valen-senpai, who is in second place in the previous grade… He majored in magic like Marika-sama, so he really competes with a difference in pure ability…”
“It’s a very unfavorable fight… but the opponent…”
The other students knew that the situation was acting unfairly on Marika, but the person she was facing was the Crown Prince… Probably no one could make an opinion other than the king of this country, so all she could do was give her a pitiful look.
“No, it’s not…”
From Marika’s point of view, all escape routes were blocked… There was no choice but to fight.
“All right…”
Marika was forced to nod her head… It was truly pitiful.
“Okay then, Valen? Take care of Marika right now.”
At Marika’s unavoidable consent, he orders his second-in-command with a smile that feels sinister at the fact that it has gone as planned.
“To headquarters.”
A student named Valen, who answered briefly in a clean and serious tone with no frills, enters the dungeon without saying a word.
“……”
Following him, Marika reluctantly moved into the dungeon with heavy steps.
“Ugh…”
Her expression, which I have never seen before, groans bitterly, makes my heart suffocate.
Looking at her face now, I am eagerly waiting for it.
He was desperately hoping for someone to dry him, someone to help him in this situation.
“Wait!”
Another voice resounds in this wide, quiet place
“I will become Marika-sama’s second-in-command and fight as her agent.”
Raise your hand and shout confidently to get everyone’s attention.
