The Grand Duchess Is Defeated Again Today - The Grand Duchess Is Defeated Again Today chapter 102

102 – The princess looked down on her.

After a pretty long kiss in a restaurant.

I grabbed Rebecca’s hand and ran out of the count’s residence.

– Son, it took quite a while. What did you do?

– ······son? Albert?

There were places I wanted to go with Rebecca, and I didn’t want to be caught by my mother and tell all about what happened at the restaurant.

To tell my mother with my own mouth that I had been kissing my fiancée for so long.

Just imagining it was terrifying.

I couldn’t even imagine how much they would make fun of me over this if they were caught at least once.

Did you say that it is human to overcome difficult things?

I don’t know who said that, but it was really stupid.

‘It’s best to avoid it.’

It was best to avoid things that were difficult to overcome.

Especially if it’s something you can avoid on your own, like now.

“······ So where are you going?”

Rebecca had a sullen expression on her face, as if she didn’t like the fact that she hadn’t heard anything.

“I’m thinking of going to a street vendor.”

“Suddenly a street vendor?”

“Yes. The county of Xernias always has a large market around this time of year.”

“······Really? But why didn’t I know about it until now?”

Rebecca’s expression hardened as she said that.

As if he was asking why he had never told such a story to himself, as if he had no intention of introducing his estate to his fiancée.

how to say It was the expression of a wife as if she had discovered her slightly cheating husband.

Even though we’re not even married yet.

I didn’t panic at all and answered calmly.

“I haven’t had a chance to introduce you to the princess.”

“I really wonder what the reason is.”

“Doesn’t the princess know too. Until last year, the princess and I weren’t this close.”

“…”

“At that time, whenever the princess found me, she begged me to compete…”

“······Stop it! Okay, so stop talking.”

Tup-

Rebecca covers my mouth as if she doesn’t want to remember what she did in the past.

“······Oh my goodness.”

“Mom, what are those two people doing over there?”

“It’s polite to get out of the way at times like this, Isaac.”

“Yes? But…”

“Follow me quickly.”

Thanks to that, I succeeded in getting the attention of the people around me.

Hwaak-

It was only natural that Rebecca’s cheeks turned red as if they were about to explode at the sudden gaze of people.

***

“······It’s because of you.”

“What are you saying is because of me?”

“Because of you… I, the next Duke of Valencia… became a spectacle.”

I managed to get out of the situation, but Rebecca and I were still bickering.

Even if it’s clear to the eyes that it will be resolved soon if only one of them slightly bends his pride, both of them have no intention of bending their pride, so they have no choice but to do so.

“I don’t know why you say it’s because of me.”

“You said nonsense.”

“I was just telling the truth.”

“······ Ugh.”

It was clear that the sentence that I was very angry but had nothing to say was made for Rebecca now.

The cute expression Rebecca is currently making was expressing the meaning in itself.

To ease my fiancée’s pouting heart, I pointed somewhere with my hand and said.

“So, why don’t you go over there with me to relax?”

“What are you doing over there?”

“To put it simply, it’s a place where you play simple games.”

The place I pointed to was one of the street vendors.

Throw a dart to hit a balloon, or shoot a toy bow to hit a target.

A place where you can enjoy games like this and receive prizes like dolls based on the results.

“······Let’s go right away.”

“I knew you would talk like that.”

There was no way my fiancé, who had the strongest fighting spirit in the world, would refuse this offer.

“welcome.”

When we entered the store we pointed to, the impressive owner greeted us warmly.

“What do you want to do first?”

“Is that important? I’ll do everything anyway.”

“······We will start with throwing darts for two people.”

As if it couldn’t be helped, I handed out the money for the two of them, and the shopkeeper burst into laughter.

“hahahaha. The lady is quite competitive.”

“······It’s kind of like that.”

“Now, five for each person here. Ten total. Can you explain the rules?”

“No, it’s fine…”

“Yes. Please explain quickly.”

As a child of a count family, I knew most of the game rules, so I tried to decline the rules, but my fiancée, who was very excited about the word game, cut it off.

The owner of the store burst into laughter once again at the awkward appearance, and then slowly began to explain the rules.

“The rules aren’t too difficult. Just pop as many balloons as you can with the given dart.”

“Okay. There’s nothing wrong.”

“······There’s nothing wrong with that. Did you just say it right?”

“Yes? Is this difficult?”

“…”

For reference, the distance between where we were standing and the balloon was at least 10m away.

Of course, it is a distance that most people cannot reach with the strength of their arms.

Witnessing my hardened expression, Rebecca put on a slightly mocking expression.

“Well, you’re not as strong as me. It’s difficult.”

“Do you have any regrets about what you just said?”

“Do you really think I’ll regret what I just said because I’m afraid of you?”

“I understand. My fiancée’s will. I understand very well.”

After saying that, he lightly loosened his wrists.

Hearing those words, he could never be defeated.

From now on, it was not just a game, but a realm of pride.

The realm of pride that I have to take revenge on Rebecca who carelessly looked down on me.

Once this had happened, I would never be defeated, as always.

“Princess.”

“Why are you calling?”

“Just playing the game isn’t much fun, so why don’t you make a bet?”

“······Tell me in detail.”

That’s an intriguing proposition.

Rebecca nodded her head as if to tell me more.

“As the shop owner said, whoever throws 5 darts each and pops more balloons wins. How is it?”

“What are you going to bet on?”

“It’s a wish, as always.”

“······Good. I’ll accept that match.”

“You’re so confident. Someone who’s never beaten me in a bet like this.”

“Because I can’t lose to you even in a simple game like this.”

It was clear that Rebecca was also determined to win this confrontation.

If you see me provoking me as much as possible and attacking me psychologically.

“I’m not sure.”

“yes?”

“Didn’t Princess always lose to me in simple games like this?”

However, I wasn’t the only one who could get excited by such a provocation.

The past that made fun of Rebecca so far was absolutely meaningless.

Provocation was something that those who had been provoked were good at, and being provoked was something that those who had been provoked were good at.

“······Ha, wait and see. We will definitely win this time.”

And, it was always Rebecca who usually suffered in situations like this.

“Is it okay if I throw it first?”

“Is it not for nothing that the term ‘Lady First’ is used? Throw away my fiancée first.”

“I’ll throw it.”

Whiik-

pop-

As soon as the declaration of throwing was over, the dart left Rebecca’s hand and immediately hit the balloon.

“… have you seen it?”

“As expected, Princess Gongnyeo is amazing.”

“Ha, if you knew by now, that’s fine.”

“Even if it does, it won’t work for me.”

Whiik-

boom- boom-

The dart that left my hand exploded two balloons before falling to the floor.

“······wow.”

“…”

What is heard is the store owner’s sincere admiration and Rebecca’s silence.

“Didn’t I tell you. Princess can’t defeat me yet.”

“······It’s not over yet.”

“Of course, the match isn’t over yet. Well, it seems the win or loss has already been decided.”

“I’ll throw it.”

Whiik-

boom- boom-

Rebecca’s dart falls after popping 2 balloons just like my dart.

I also thought that Rebecca was not a genius for nothing.

Just seeing what I was throwing once, he immediately found a way.

After all, the title of Princess Munchkin was not earned by anyone.

“Did you see it?”

Rebecca gives me a conceited look as soon as she sees her darts pop two balloons.

“As expected, my fiancée is amazing.

“There’s no way I can’t do what you can do…”

“Even if it does, it won’t work for me.”

“······yes?”

The dart disappeared from my hand for a moment after Rebecca’s puzzled expression.

Boom- Boom- Boom-

And then you hear the sound of three balloons popping.

“······Wow. I’ve been in the business so far, but I’ve never seen someone as good as you.”

“…”

I sneaked up to Rebecca, who was stiff from the face, and whispered in a low voice.

“Didn’t I tell you? Do you have any regrets about what you said earlier?”

“…”

“The princess underestimated Prince Xernias of the county of Xernias too much.”

It was.

It was like my home ground.

It is such a home ground that even a munchkin princess can never surpass.

“Be prepared. This wish will never be easy.”

“…”

My fiancée would have to pay the price for belittling her fiancée.
