44. a look

Right after the duel, I headed straight for Eileen.

She was silently looking at the arena from the special seat.

Mikaris was waiting for me beside her.

“Then let’s have a good talk together.”

Perhaps knowing Eileen’s story, Mikaris also quietly moved away.

I asked Eileen.

“How are you feeling?”

“… … .”

“Lady Ruthenia?”

Eileen was still speechless. I just stared blankly at the front. What are you thinking about?

I screamed to wake her up.

“Eileen!”

“Uh, huh?”

Eileen looked at me with widened eyes.

“I will sit next to you.”

I sat down next to Mikaris and looked into Eileen’s eyes.

“Did I tell you? Tomorrow’s destiny is what today makes it. The young lady’s fate has changed today.”

“Is my fate changed?”

“is it so. Because now those eyes are starting to come alive.”

Eileen looked up at the sky.

The dazzling sunlight was shining down from the blue sky without any superfluity.

In the arena, the appearance of many people leaving was captured in the eyes.

Petals fluttered white in the wind. There was no such thing as black and white in the fluttering petals.

The world was painted with colorful petals, and the colors of the petals filled the gaps in the past.

It was the moment Eileen regained her color.

“How does the world look now?”

“Blue, light blue, green, pink… … .”

Eileen listed the colors she saw and let out a breath.

It wasn’t just breathing.

Something was leaking from Eileen’s eyes as well.

It won’t be an ordinary tear.

If those are ordinary tears, why are you laughing?

So it was loneliness.

It was sadness melted into joy.

It was the moment when his inside, which had been burnt black, turned white.

With nowhere else to go, the loneliness that had just pooled in her tear ducts did not stop the tears from flowing.

I could hear Eileen’s heart echoed and howled.

He said grabbing her slender hand.

“I will live my life seeing a lot of light in the future. Because this world is a world that shines in many different ways.”

Eileen pursed her lips and looked at me.

“Live your own life without being influenced by anyone.”

“My life?”

“… Even if a waterway wants to overflow, it has to flow from one drop of water, Aileen’s life begins with a single point of light. You have been through a lot.”

I held her hand and spoke.

“Lady Ruthenia, would you like to organize a party with me now?”

Eileen nodded. Watching a colorful world, not black and white, satisfactorily.

“Call me Eileen…”

“great.”

I smiled happily and pulled Eileen’s hand.

“let’s go. To see all the light that exists in this world.”

***

After the duel, Shadis will not be involved with me.

For nobles, the meaning of a duel is a symbol of pride.

At that moment, my heart fluttered.

The meaning of life that I thought was all lost.

Because I saw it start anew right in front of my eyes.

gave up life abandoned me

gave up being human. turned into a doll

Didn’t expect it. Even if I had hoped for it, the only thing that came back was disappointment.

but.

At least this man didn’t.

My tiny expectations were not returned with disappointment.

This man brought back the life that even I had thrown away.

So this man is my savior.

‘This is my prince… .’

It was Eileen, whose hair was full of flower fields.

***

I formally introduced Eileen to everyone.

“This is the Marquis of Ruthenia. You are a divine major… ”

“I know that. So, are you coming to the party?”

“yes. You are coming in.”

Ronia smiled brightly.

“thank god. There was no one majoring in divinity at the pollution practice party… .”

“Where did you get such a cute girl from?”

“Eh, this is Eileen Ruthenia. I will leave it up to you… .”

Eileen hesitantly said hello.

“Mikaris Merian, you know?”

“This is Ronia Cardelia. It’s an honor to have a party.”

“Line Estupina. Please take good care of me.”

Why did you come together like this?

I thought it would be good for Eileen to get to know them, so I came up with a plan.

A women’s meeting. It is for this reason that I introduced it here.

“The young ladies are talking to each other. I can’t even have a conversation with a man.”

“Yeah, that would be nice. To keep order.”

said Mikaris, sipping tea.

“There is no need for that… ”

“It’s been a while. Are you leaving already?”

Ronia and Line looked at me with regret.

Just as I was about to leave with a smile, Mikaris called me to the stop.

“Oh, by the way, a letter has arrived from the Marquis Merian. Go to the dormitory.”

“From the marquis family? what’s going on… .”

“There is a woman you brought. It’s related to him, so take care of it yourself.”

Is it a story about a small war? Did she do something wrong?

“Then let’s go right away. Share your words.”

A letter about a small war… . I moved quickly.

When I arrived at the dormitory, Sojeon was waiting for me.

“I was waiting. Viscount.”

“What happened?”

Sojeon shook his back.

“As of today, I have been assigned as the Viscount’s exclusive lady-in-waiting.”

“… Wasn’t the family assigned a separate job?”

“The Marquis sent me after knowing that the Viscount did not have an exclusive lady-in-waiting.”

Be an exclusive maid. It doesn’t matter if you don’t have it, but if you give it to me, I’ll take it.

“Is that so. i look forward to. No, take good care of me in the future, Sojeon.”

“I will do my best to be of help to you, the Viscount.”

Sojeon bowed his head once again.

“By the way, I heard that you are an oriental princess. Is it okay to do this?”

“Where else would I go?”

That’s it too. That’s why I brought… .

“If you ask me, I can go back to my hometown.”

“… … .”

From noble mtl dot com

Sojeon was speechless. Do you not intend to return to your hometown? Why?

“… I won’t ask more if you’re going to keep it a secret.”

What is Sojeon’s past? Why did he come all the way to the western continent, a distant continent, and why did he come out as a slave in the black market?

It’s not just one or two questions… .

I asked for a handshake with Sojourn.

“I don’t need much help. I’m used to living alone. But I don’t have a maid’s room, so I don’t know what to do… .”

“The Marquis has already taken care of that. You will be moving your dormitory soon.”

“Right.”

Well, it’s strange that he continues to use the dormitory he used as a commoner while being called the Sword Saint Sir Johannes. By the way, the Marquis Deanwright also handled things really quickly.

“By the way, did you finish your lady-in-waiting education in that short amount of time?”

“… There were no major problems.”

Sojeon’s expression didn’t change at all. I didn’t even know what he was thinking.

When I look at it with the Eye of Insight, it seems that there is magic that I don’t know about… . Is it the power of the East?

I kept questioning Sojourn.

“Come to think of it, I heard there is a mysterious magic in the Orient, but do you know how to use small wares?”

“… I know how to use it.”

“Can you show me one more time? I am very interested in oriental magic. But unfortunately, there is no way to communicate directly.”

“of course. If it’s helpful to the Viscount… .”

From before, viscount. Viscount. I don’t like it because it seems like a hard name. Not even the other nobles.

“Can I call you by your first name instead of Viscount? It seems like a bit of a hard title.”

“… If you want.”

“Yeah, that’s enough.”

Now I must have gotten used to the position of an aristocrat. Talking like this makes me feel a little bit silly.

“I have something to think about now. Let me know if you need anything.”

“Okay, then I’ll start working right away.”

Sojeon started cleaning my room, organizing my clothes, and preparing teacups.

‘It seems like you knew in advance and prepared… .’

This is Sojeon’s job now, so let’s leave it to him.

Now you have to prepare. contamination practice.

Comprehensive ability evaluation will be exempted for being a swordsman, and there is no problem with various tests.

If you say it’s a bondi test, it’s not cramming.

In other words, I only need to prepare for the pollution purification practice.

Contamination clean-up practice.

As one of the tasks to recover the territory that was devoured by pollution, practice begins in the second year of the academy.

Of course, it doesn’t go to dangerous places.

However, contamination is not dealt with in the original work.

It is said that we need to move based on the vaguely leaked information.

Currently, I am a 7-star swordsman and a black magician who uses the 7 stars as a magic tank.

Through training, magic and aura can be used freely.

Mikaris and Ronia will soon reach the 5th Circle Wizard.

Especially since Mikaris has talent, he will rise to a higher level.

‘Currently, Aileen’s level is 3rd circle… .’

As much as family affairs are family affairs, he would not have been able to properly raise his abilities.

Even in the original, she wasn’t at that high level.

The reason I chose her anyway

The protagonist’s divine talent. It was clear when I looked at the insight bill.

This will definitely help us a lot.

‘Besides, she’s pretty.’

… There is no selfishness.

maybe.

“… … .”

Somehow I have a lot of thoughts. Is it because of the information that no one knows, only I know?

I feel a huge sense of responsibility because of the weight I carry.

I just want to look at the villainess, but to do that, I have to save the world. It’s harsh.

‘Shall we go to the training ground to cool off?’

When I arrived at the training ground, I saw Ruterra wielding a sword alone.

“It’s been a while, Gongja.”

“No, who is this? Isn’t that a hound!”

Ruterra’s face turned red. why does he like me so much? He is somewhat of a suspicious Confucius.

“I am Viscount Johannes now.”

“My family made an offer, but I heard you turned it down?”

“I am the son-in-law of the Marquis of Merian.”

“Yes, you had a special relationship with Lady Merian.”

Rutera continued to swing her sword with a bitter expression. What, do you have any regrets? I’m not a big fan of regrets… .

‘Although there are people who like it.’

I proposed to Ruterra.

“Wouldn’t you like to play at least sparring after a long time?”

“Dalian? It’s good. I want to learn a lesson from you who became a Sword Saint.”

After light sparring with Rutera, we started talking.

“How are you today? You seemed to have a lot of worries last time.”

“I decided to focus on my path first.”

“What do you mean?”

“It means that you gave up on Seri Verdia.”

What else are you talking about? The male lead gave up the female lead? In the end, is it all my fault?

“That is bad news… .”

“What is my choice?”

“Is there a reason?”

“just… . I thought something was strange. Wouldn’t it be dispassionate for me to fall in love with you from the first meeting and break off the engagement in such an official setting? Well, even though I wonder if love is like that.”

“… … .”

Ruthera realized something. What is it?

There is something unknown about Seri Verdia.

Are you really using charm magic? There was nothing like that in the novel from the point of view of Seri Verdia… .

‘Has it been cursed by any chance?’

But when I looked at it through my eyesight, I couldn’t see anything.

‘It’s not just one or two questions.’

At that time, Ruterra stood up first.

“It’s been a while. I need to go get some rest now.”

“Come in, Gongja-nim.”

“Yes, Hound. By the way, please know that I have no ill feelings toward you.”

suddenly?

“ah… yes.”

Ruterra left the training ground without looking back.

‘It seems that Ruterra has been thinking a lot since before… .’

Well, that’s what Ruterra will think about on her own.

I just need to prepare for the decontamination practice.

‘First of all, let’s all breathe together tomorrow.’
