The Fiancee Who Betrayed Me Is Obsessed With Me

19 – Joining (8)

The year after the entrance exam was quite a happy time for Lia.

It was because he had finally begun the path of becoming a knight that he had been walking down, and it was because he had gained a comrade in arms whom he could rely on in the process.

To be honest, when I first heard that I would have to live in the same dormitory as men, I was embarrassed.

No matter how much I lived like a good man, I had never lived in the same room as 20 men.

No, in the first place, she had never slept with a man or been seen changing clothes.

I’ve been dreaming of being a knight for a long time, but I’ve never thought about such details.

‘I have to endure this much.’

However, I thought that the road to becoming a knight would be difficult.

Lia quickly made up her mind and confidently stepped into the dormitory.

Of course, I couldn’t help but feel an instinctive trembling the moment I entered a room with so many men.

“… uh?”

“… under.”

But that tension was short-lived.

A man with a familiar face was sitting quietly next to my bed.

As administrative processing continued in the order of student registration numbers during the entrance exam, it seemed like the seats were assigned right next to each other.

“We end up sharing a dormitory together! “Please take care of me, Beryl!”

“… yes.”

His reaction was still cold, as if he was annoyed, but I felt strangely relieved to have him by my side.

Still, the distance was definitely closer than when I first met him.

Compared to the beginning, I felt that he was strangely accepting of the conversation.

And I don’t know why, but Lia felt like he wasn’t that cold of a person.

Although his words were cold, his warm appearance that appeared from unseen places made me want to be closer to him even more.

It was not because of his handsome appearance, but because he was a comrade in arms that I could trust and have my back on.

Contrary to expectations, life as an apprentice engineer went smoothly.

The training was difficult, but surprisingly, there were no inconvenient aspects of living with the men I was worried about.

Of course, Lia herself was careful, but contrary to expectations that she would behave badly, the dormitory staff did not give her a hard time.

-… If you do something like that again, I will have your tongue ripped out.

It didn’t take long to find out why.

A conversation between Beryl and the dormitory staff that I happened to hear one evening.

They were the ones who spouted dirty words while looking at Lia’s underwear in the laundry during the day.

Beryl was warning them. Don’t touch Lia.

Since he was always blunt in front of her, his behavior seemed different to Lia.

So, was it because of his efforts that he was able to live more comfortably than he thought?

When I think about it, there were many areas where I could feel his consideration.

Strangely, whenever I returned from taking a shower in the building next door, I ended up returning with Beryl, who was taking a walk.

Whenever I thought my laundry might have been mixed up with someone else’s by mistake, he always took care of only his own laundry and delivered it to me.

Strangely enough, when he was in the dormitory, Beryl was always there as well, and the mischievous apprentice knights, with the exception of Haas, never crossed the line toward Beryl.

Although she didn’t notice because she had gotten used to acting with him since the entrance exam, Lia realized that he was by her side in every situation.

And the moment I realized that fact, heat rose to my face without my knowledge.

Normally, she would have felt bad because she thought such consideration was ignoring her as a woman, but strangely, she didn’t feel that way now.

Rather, I was thankful for Beryl and hoped that he would continue to do so.

“So when are you planning on having the ceremony, Beryl? Leah?”

One day, the other apprentice knights seemed to have noticed Beryl’s consideration and began to secretly tease the relationship between the two.

In particular, Haas did not stop making jokes that crossed the line even though he was being beaten like that by Beryl.

It also meant that Haas and Beryl’s relationship was much closer than that of other apprentice knights.

Strangely enough, Lia didn’t like such teasing.

Beryl was somewhat disappointed that there was no change in the teasing.

marriage.

Lia had never thought about marriage in her life, but she thought that if she did, a man like Beryl would be the one.

It’s not that she likes him, but that she should marry a man similar to or stronger than her.

It was absolutely contradictory for him to be my opponent, both as a comrade in arms who had spent all of my knightly life so far, and as a strong man with a lot to learn from.

From some time ago, Lia’s eyes had always been following his side face.

“Did Beryl say she wanted to join the Guard Knights?”

Time passed quickly, and my apprenticeship period quickly came to an end.

I had to think about what would happen after I became an official knight, and Lia’s career path had already been decided.

And it was the same for Beryl.

Because he had declared from the beginning that he would become a knight guard.

With Beryl’s grades, it was possible to become an escort driver. And he was so strong that even the instructors recognized him.

One day, the two happened to talk about him.

Lia asked him why he wanted to become a guard, and naturally the story about the Four Princesses came up.

Being the guard of the Four Princesses was such a dangerous job that you could lose your life at any moment, so the story about it couldn’t be left out.

“Is there a royal family you particularly want to escort? Surely she’s not the rumored 4th princess? I heard that your father is so evil that it makes you click your tongue… ”

“that’s right. 4Princess.”

“okay. also… “Well, what did you say?”

“He said he would escort the 4th princess.”

“Uh, why?”

“No way, Beryl. 4Loving the princess is… ”

“… love? Sigh. “You could say that.”

Lia couldn’t keep her mouth shut at Beryl’s answer.

There were often such articles. Knights who dream of romance with a rare evil woman.

Although the Fourth Princess was so evil that she was rumored to be cruel, her beauty was also well-known.

Moreover, even though she was about to turn 25, she didn’t even have a fiancé of any kind.

Since most royals already had a partner, becoming her husband was probably the only way to succeed for nobles who wanted to become royals.

So, is Beryl one of those categories? Was it because of the Four Princesses that I decided to become a bodyguard from the beginning?

No matter what choice he made, Lia wasn’t in a position to argue, but she really hated the idea of him becoming the four princesses’ bodyguard.

Was it because I heard that he loved the Four Princesses?

No, that probably wasn’t it. It may have been simply because he was worried about his comrades who were walking into limbo on their own.

It was said that one of the Four Princesses’ guard knights lost his life to her not long ago.

There was no guarantee that Beryl wouldn’t do the same.

-Next Leah Hen Mernis. Guard knights!

But I couldn’t break his stubbornness. Lia didn’t even have the qualifications to do that.

Instead, she chose to become an escort like Beryl.

Just because he was an escort driver didn’t mean he couldn’t contribute. They also participate in war.

It is not unheard of for someone to work as an escort for a certain period of time and then move on to another position. That’s why Lia chose to become an escort driver.

The escort knight was also a knight. Perhaps the closest thing to a knight was an escort knight.

Above all, I did not want to see my most precious comrade lose his life in vain.

He had to be by his side and guide him to walk the right path.

Of course, he didn’t seem to have any intention of giving up easily.

Luckily, this time, the two of us ended up sharing the same room, and his resolve remained the same in our conversation.

What on earth was that woman that stole the heart of such a strong man?

Lia was unknowingly developing hatred towards the Four Princesses, whom she had never seen before.

And like that, my first day as an escort knight began.

***

‘… Yuna. At the very least, please bear with me from arbitrarily executing the guard knights. They are the kingdom’s precious talents and the most outstanding force. If you keep dying, the loss of combat power is enormous.’

A few days after Syria visited Yuna.

Yuuna headed to the Guard Knight Corps to select a new guard knight for the vacant position.

It is also said that the new drivers finished their apprenticeship period and became official engineers starting yesterday.

Of course, it was rare for the royal family to personally choose an escort.

It was just a whim that Yuna said that she would personally visit the guard knights that day.

Maybe I needed something to relieve the stress I felt because of Syria.

“Princess 4, 4? For some reason, without even saying anything… ”

“I need an escort driver. I said there were new people. “I’m going to choose one now, so just know that.”

“Well, that thing…” All right. “Please come this way.”

The staff of the Guard Knights could not even think of sending her away after her sudden visit.

I already knew what kind of person she was, and I had no idea what kind of bloodshed would ensue if I tried to stop her.

I had to assign her a new escort anyway.

Perhaps, if she chose her own escort, she would receive less resentment from new recruits.

If he were to arbitrarily become a guard knight for the Four Princesses, he would have to bear the knight’s despair.

Even the knight commander couldn’t stop her from choosing her own knight.

-4The princess enters. Everyone, pay attention!

At that moment, new recruits were gathered together.

This was because it was training time before official assignment.

Of course, they would not have known that the Four Princesses would be visiting today.

The poor new drivers stood at attention, feeling a false premonition upon hearing the news.

‘… I’m sorry, but someone has to make a sacrifice. Sorry guys.’

The staff guided the four princesses, praying for the peace of someone who was about to walk into hell.

“The Fourth Princess will personally select the escort knight. It is a great honor to be appointed directly by the royal family, so the chosen knight can be proud. “Then, princess.”

Being chosen directly as an escort. It was definitely a great honor.

Unless the target is the Four Princesses. If it weren’t for her, it would have been that way.

All the new knights froze as the Four Princesses approached with a devastated beauty that was completely opposite to the cruel rumors.

None of them knew the rumors about her. He just desperately avoided eye contact to avoid being selected.

Stand tall-

And as I passed by the new knights, looking at them one by one.

She stopped in front of a man.

“… “Hoo.”

He was looking straight down at himself, avoiding his eyes and not looking straight ahead.

His tall stature and broad shoulders made him stand out among the knights.

On the contrary, the fine lines and white skin of the face. And jet-black hair that slightly covers the eyes.

He had a look that could easily steal the hearts of many women, but that wasn’t why Yuuna paid attention to him.

Yuna also knew what the rumors were about. And how terrified these knights must be right now.

Nevertheless, this man was looking down at himself with cold, sunken eyes.

rebellion? Hostility? aversion?

I didn’t know what kind of emotion he was showing such boldness.

What is certain, however, is that his actions stimulated Yuna’s interest.

“name.”

“… Beryl. no see.”

“Last name?”

“doesn’t exist. “Because he is from Goa.”

Yuna’s gaze was fixed on him without even looking at the other knights.

It was clear that her interest was piqued.

“What are we going to do with this person…” “

“I, I want to sacrifice my whole body to protect the princess. please… !”

The moment Yuna was about to open her mouth,

Lia, who was next to Beryl, suddenly raised her voice.

“… She is the daughter of the second knight commander. “His skills are also among the best among this year’s jockeys.”

From noble mtl dot com

“no. I’m going to use this person. “Please put them in immediately, starting tomorrow.”

“… All right.”

“Princess… !”

Yuuna declared like that and left the knights.

As soon as her appearance completely disappeared, everyone relaxed and sighed.

“Beryl… ! why… !”

“… are you okay. “You said it was what I wanted, right?”

And among them, only Beryl, who was satisfied, and Leah, who was looking at him with resentment, were the only ones that stood out.
