37. Two faces. Fall leaves and foliage (2)

Students gather in an ominous atmosphere.

Watching other people fight is always fun.

Dopamine is secreted in the brain just by looking at it.

However, unlike other students, I couldn’t enjoy watching the fights.

The word ‘killing’ wasn’t just something Nadia said, it was sincere.

“If you don’t cancel, you will die and Damian will die too. Cancel right away.”

The oath alarm rings in my heart.

Nadia spewed murder at Bluebell with a stern expression.

Including me.

‘Why am I… ?’

I had doubts, but after thinking about it, Nadia’s idea was simple.

After I die because of the oath, to get rid of the future where I get along with another woman.

‘If I can’t get my hands on it, I will destroy it… Is that what you think?’

Because Nadia is possessive.

Her actions were understood with her own brain.

Although it still didn’t make any sense to her mind.

I whispered into Bluebell’s ear.

“Bluebell, don’t provoke him.”

“… I protected you now, are you taking his side? Would you like to die with me? That would be better, right?”

“No, not that. You can do something to me like last time. And, there’s nothing good about fighting.”

“Is there? If you fight and win, they won’t come close to you.”

It turns its tail and runs away.

Does Bluebell think Nadia is that kind of person?

However, she can be assertive.

“Absolutely not. Definitely try again.”

Until I die.

Nadia is a woman who needs to get what she wants in her hands.

If she has something someone else wants, she takes it away.

She breaks if she can’t take it away.

That is the personality of Nadia that I saw in the original work and actually saw.

“Let’s just end it here. My body is fine, and I have eyes to see.”

“…I feel bad pretending to know her. Let’s just die. You just die with me.”

“It’s not that I know the Duke of Vertium. It’s because of rumors. You don’t know either. Rumors.”

“That makes sense. Yes, I will listen to you specially this time. And, I know what a spectacle I am. Those cubs annoying.”

Bluebell notices that more and more people are gathering around him.

Even if she died, she didn’t seem to want to be a spectacle for others.

Is it because we are secretly whispering among ourselves?

Nadia murmured, exuding her bloody air.

“… What are you doing with me in front of you? Two people? Are you ignoring me?”

A sharp pain felt in the heart.

I explained in a calm tone to slowly calm her down.

“We don’t have to blush and fight, right? Bluebell thought you were attacking me like the last time, so he raised his head. It was caused by a misunderstanding, how about we stop today?”

“… Misunderstanding. What I tried to check the proof the other day. Are you talking about that?”

Blue Bell doesn’t like her, but she has a look, so she sighs and nods her head.

“Haa- Yes, I was mistaken because I was afraid you would make a fuss like last time. Although it still annoys me to mistake Damian for someone else. Let’s end here for today, how about it?”

Unlike Nadia, Bluebell cares about the people around her.

Because he belongs to a lot of social circles, he knows how scary rumors can be.

Bluebell said she hated talking about her in other people’s mouths.

At Bluebell’s suggestion, Nadia shook her head.

From noble mtl dot com

“I hate it.”

“What? This is crazy-“

“Cancel it first. You said my drawing wasn’t good. Then, I will end here for today. I will never forgive you next time.”

Never forgive.

That seemed true.

Bluebell laughed dumbfounded at Nadia’s imposing figure.

“Ha, is this really stupid? I should have known from the time I kept calling Damian a different person. Damian, why the hell did you get caught by such an asshole?”

Sure.

I was caught on purpose.

I didn’t know you could hold it so strongly.

Still, is it because Bluebell looked at me and was conscious of other people’s eyes?

She opened her mouth in a light tone.

“I’ll cancel. It’s okay? Is it over? Then we go.”

“Not yet.”

“Annoying, what are you talking about!”

“Tell me what you canceled.”

“You said that you can’t draw pictures! Cancel that! Are you okay!?”

Bluebell’s annoyed cry.

After hearing her answer, Nadia coolly turned her back.

“Okay. Instead, don’t look at me next time. This time, I’ll step back after seeing Damian.”

I will take care of the first offender.

Is this something?

Nadia heard Bluebell’s reply and left her seat as if she didn’t need to talk further.

‘You’re stepping back more coolly than I thought? More than I expected.’

Do you have any plans?

Since the retreat was neat, the gathered students also lost interest and scattered to their respective seats.

Seeing that, Bluebell laughed.

“Ha, is that a crazy b*tch? If it’s a Duke, it’s all right. You’re not prettier than me, but you’re raw… “

“Bluebell, speak nicely.”

“That b*tch makes me speak badly! Why are you yelling at me and not at him!”

You can’t hit honey chestnuts like at the mansion.

‘See you next time you’re alone.’

I decided to aim for a time when the two of us were alone.

Before that.

“… Thanks, Bluebell. For helping me.”

I should say thank you.

Thanks to that, I was able to break free from Nadia’s obsession.

Upon hearing my thanks, Bluebell widened her eyes in surprise and she smiled.

“Of course you should be grateful. And, think carefully. What kind of apology are you going to apologize to me for? That’s right, if you were my teacher, I told you to do well, right? From now on, don’t fall for that girl. Because the me who learned from you is more embarrassing and annoying.”

“… Okay.”

“Let’s go to class. It’s the next major class.”

“Yes.”

A very trustworthy bluebell.

She got good results against Nadia, who had that strong ability.

I wouldn’t be able to do that if I saw people being crushed all at once.

‘Not knowing fear actually helped me.’

What can I say?

Seeing bluebells reminds me of honey badgers.

A ferocious honey badger that attacks indiscriminately when its eyes roll, regardless of its weight class.

“If someone is worse than me, who wants to touch Damian?”

“… “

A honey badger with a strong obsession and possessiveness.

Bluebell.

She asked as she walked down her hallway.

“I heard there is a welcome party for new recruits after class today. Are you going to participate?”

“I have to.”

“Hey, do whatever you want. The subject of having only me as a friend.”

“I have a friend.”

“Who?”

“Glass.”

At my words, Bluebell furrowed her eyebrows.

“Get out and search.”

***

First day after entering the academy.

I finished the class safely.

Fortunately, nothing serious happened that would cost him his life.

“Should I say this is bad? Should I say good?”

Even if it’s trivial.

Since no one has ever died, should I be content with that?

While thinking about that, I wrote in Korean on a huge piece of paper attached to the wall.

“Day 1. The entire storyline from the original is the same. Except for Nadia’s admission to the academy. However, the risk factor remains.”

Nadia did not fall into the art department, making her rebellious less likely.

However, she is remarkably likely to cause problems due to her personality, which can easily kill people.

“I still don’t know what he was thinking. It’s strange that you quietly withdrew today.”

I circled Nadia’s name on the paper.

“Highest probability of risk. Attention please.”

Bluebell and glass…

“Bluebell needs to improve his personality. Yuri still needs to watch.”

Listening to what Yuri said after finishing all of her classes.

Today’s class wasn’t bad, and there were no incidents.

In the original work I remember…

‘I kept challenging the crown prince to become stronger.’

To prove that it is not a failure.

I challenged the strongest crown prince whenever I had time.

However, the vacation came without ever defeating the crown prince, and he returned to the north with a sense of defeat.

As it is, Yuri drops out of her academy and rolls around in the North, where she eventually annihilates her own family.

“There is a high possibility that things will go the same way as the original, but… Distrust of the world and obsession with me are great. We need to watch.”

Charlotte is…

“First of all, I have to make them focus on me, not the prince. The first meeting wasn’t bad. To make the relationship stronger, I have to deal with the dual personality.”

Lastly, the heroine and the prince…

“It would be better to just let them fall in love. Because the crown prince’s leash is tightly gripped by the heroine.”

Let’s not cause trouble.

Because if I do it wrong, my head could be blown off.

The prince does not hold back.

Tak-

I threw the pen on the desk.

Today’s thoughts at the academy ended, and there was a place I had to go to now.

I took out a black banquet suit from the closet, put it on, and checked it in the mirror.

“Not bad.”

He gets dressed well and has a good appearance.

The Sinclair family has white hair and distinctive blue eyes.

I think I belong to the good-looking side.

Except for the dead, lifeless impression of the eyes.

“… Tsk, I have to go to a banquet.”

Charlotte.

To meet industrial espionage in a neighboring country.

I headed to the place where the entrance ceremony banquet was being held.

“… “

With the obstinate observer’s gaze felt from behind.

That gaze continued even after he left the dormitory.

***

The banquet hall was gorgeous.

A huge banquet hall that can accommodate servants carrying precious food, young ladies in gorgeous dresses, and people gathered to welcome new recruits.

As expected of the Fritz Empire Academy where the greatest talents gather, the level was also high.

‘Yuri said she didn’t want to come, but she said I was there, so she said she would come to protect… Bluebell is wearing her signature blue dress, chatting with young girls… ‘

Because I keep turning my head during the conversation to see if I’m at the banquet hall.

I sneaked into the crowd without being seen and carefully moved toward my target.

It’s dangerous if you get caught talking about the two of you.

‘Charlotte’

As far as I know, it’s not hiding somewhere.

There are a lot of people, and they must be having conversations where they can be seen.

To extract talent from the empire.

I immediately looked up and checked up.

‘I found it.’

As expected.

Charlotte was in a good place for people to see and explore.

Charlotte arrogantly looks down at us from the railing on the second floor.

As she was searching for talent, accompanied by a dark-haired escort knight, she met my eyes.

Then, she gestured with a seductive smile.

“Come here. Talk to me.”

The crown prince should be at this banquet too.

Charlotte found me first.

Step 1.

Have you passed the mark as a talented person?

“Good.”

A calculating figure hidden behind an interesting look.

Red lips painted in an unconventional dress with exposure.

‘I’ll pretend to be caught.’

I went straight for Charlotte’s target.
