170 – All Mine (2)
Aisha’s eyes trembled when she caught Irene.
‘I didn’t do anything wrong… But I feel like I did something wrong.’
Subsequently, Aisha’s eyes turned to Siena.
‘Whew, I’m glad…’

It was because Sienna wasn’t flirting with Theo right now. Sienna was like a time bomb that didn’t know when to explode.
Isha looked at Siena with her uneasy eyes.
‘No matter how much Theo is a hero in the future and the next head of the great Balderuk family…’
I think flirting even in front of your fiancee is a little over the line.
Theo pretended to know Irene.
“You are still at the training ground at this time, Irene.”
Sweaty Irene said, catching her breath.
“Huh woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo. I don’t have anything to do at the festival, and I’m bitter about what happened to me in the tournament last week. I never expected to see you here, Theo, by the way.”
“Yes, nice to meet you. It seems like it’s been quite a while. Wipe it with this, Irene.”
Theo took a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to Irene. The handkerchief, befitting Theo’s use, looked luxurious.
Irene was hesitant to accept her handkerchief.
“Those hands are dirty… And it’s a bit of a sweaty thing with a high-end item like this, Theo.”
“It’s okay. [Clean] I’ll use magic to clean it right away.”
“····················································································································································································································································· I’ll write it thank you.”
Irene smiled softly, took the handkerchief Theo gave her, and began wiping her sweat.
Theo looked at him and said.
“Irene. Training is good, but it’s also good to rest when you’re resting. You tend to drive yourself over the edge.”
“…But what can I do? It’s a bit like going outside alone during the festival period.”
Words with many implications.
Actually, until the evening, Irene was quite excited because it was the Academy Festival. She hoped that Theo would visit her.
But Theo didn’t come. He was so angry that he thought about going out alone, but he got even more angry because he couldn’t find anyone outside alone.
‘It’s nice that you came to visit me at this time, but…’
I will come alone… All in all, she came with Siena and Aisha.
Siena is particularly annoying.
Inside, negative emotions such as jealousy and anger arise. The mind is not at will.
‘You can’t do this. Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo-‘
Irene took a deep breath.
It’s a way to calm her mind, which Mina saw in her romance novels lent to her.
Irene calmly said that it worked.
“What did Theo do today?”
“She trained until around noon, and then entered a beauty pageant in the afternoon.”
Irene’s eyes widened at the completely unexpected words that came out of Theo’s mouth.
“Mi, beauty contest?”
“Yes.”
“Theo, you participated? Didn’t you just watch someone else participate?”
Irene looked alternately at Siena and Aisha, who were standing near Theo. Seeing that, Theo shook her head.
“I participated directly. It was a pretty significant time. It was also fun.”
Saying that, Theo showed the championship trophy.
Irene said after seeing the trophy.
“Wow, that’s true… I even won.”
“The win was unexpected. Aisha did a great job.”
Theo pointed at Aisha with a wink.
Irene’s eyes became bitter.
“What does it mean to be Miss Eisha’s ball?”
“I did my hair and skin styling. She also taught me how to stand out on stage.”
“I see. Thank you, Miss Aisha. Theo won thanks to you.”
Contrary to saying thank you, Irene’s eyes were still fierce.
I felt that Aisha was following me for no reason.
‘Oh my! Theo, there’s no need to say that under the circumstances! Can’t you see Irene’s eyes are gone?!’
Isha recalled that Irene had given her physical therapy last week under the guise of teaching her swordsmanship. Aisha said while avoiding Irene’s eyes.
“…Ah, no. Maybe Theo would have won without me, Miss Irene. The competition was also very condescending.”
“I see.”
“Yes.”
After Aisha’s answer, there was silence for a moment.
Irene glanced at Theo, Sienna, and Aisha.
‘Apart from Ms. Eisha… Why is Miss Sienna here?’
For Irene, Siena was the number one target to be wary of. Siena is such an outgoing woman that she hugged Theo in front of her when she was observing a lecture at the Faculty of Knights before.
Of course, elves and humans have different ways of thinking, but she didn’t know that. The fact that she flaunted her sly coquetry to Theo just didn’t like her.
Theo looked at Irene.
“Hmm. What do you have to say, Irene?”
“Oh, no. Why?”
“She kept her mouth shut and her head down. That’s Irene, isn’t that what you often show when you have something to say?”
At those words, the corners of Irene’s mouth went up slightly. To the extent that Theo remembered her habits, she always looked at herself carefully.
Irene’s cheeks turned red.
“·······No. Oh no. That’s right. But I forgot what to say. Bird later, if I think of it, I’ll tell you!”
Irene could no longer meet Theo’s eyes and avoided them.
Theo tilted her head.
“Okay, tell me when you think of it. By the way, Irene, don’t you have close friends? I wish she could enjoy the festival with her friend.”
“You mean Mina?”
“Yes.”
“···He got a boyfriend a while ago. I’m not ignorant enough to intervene, Theo.”
“Is that so?”
Unknowingly, Theo uttered his true feelings. Even in this work, Irene is pure when spoken to in good terms, but she is ignorant when spoken to in bad terms.
Irene tilted her head with a puzzled expression.
“Yes? I didn’t hear you, Theo. Can you say it again?”
“Oh, nothing.”
Theo hurriedly gathered up and picked up a practice longsword from the weapon stand.
“Then I guess I have to train myself.”
“Huh, I want to join you too! Sword fighting is not fun, but I think it will be fun with Theo.”
Sienna stood in front of the weapon rack, staring at her practice weapons.
“Theo, what kind of weapon do you like? Just talk.”
“······You don’t have to deal with us on time. Sienna, I don’t want to take your time.”
Theo was half sincere and half fake.
If she obediently accepted her favor, it would give her a reason to attack herself.
‘It’s okay to openly say okay.’
Of course, Theo is a pragmatist, so she likes sparring. Not to mention her, Sienna is a good sparring opponent. She knows how to handle a variety of long weapons skillfully.
Also, Siena’s technology is extremely high in perfection. At this point, in terms of the perfection of her technology, no one among her current Ellinia Academy students would be able to match her.
If you sparred with her, you might be able to catch a clue about Maximin’s sword dance.
Sienna laughed.
“Huh, I don’t waste any time I spend with Theo. And Theo, aren’t you going to participate in the martial arts competition on Thursday?”
“It is planned.”
“Huh, then eat when given. Have to win? I don’t like holding that weapon. It is not an opportunity that comes every day.”
“Hmm.”
Theo pondered for a moment.
‘Should I take it or not.’
As Siena said, this is not an opportunity that often comes along.
Even in this work, Sienna moves according to her mood, she has high-level skills, but she doesn’t like holding a weapon.
···When Theo is in trouble.
“Can you give me a chance, Miss Sienna?”
Irene said. She looked at Sienna with her cold blue eyes.
Similarly, Sienna stared into Irene’s eyes for about a second.
“Whoa, I don’t plan on controlling anything other than Theo, but is it okay? Even if you get hurt, I can’t take responsibility.”
Irene gathered her messy hair back together and tied it up tight.
“When sparring, it is natural not to look down on the opponent. And it’s rude to say that, Miss Sienna. Even if Sienna and Yang are almost 10 times older than Theo and me.”
The smile disappeared from Siena’s face. Irene touched Sienna’s evil.
“Okay, then-“
Sienna pulled out her training sword from her weapon rack. The sword is her main weapon.
“I’ll give you a chance, Miss Irene. Get your weapon.”
“Yes. It’s an honor to be given the opportunity to sword-sword-to-sword with the elder, Miss Sienna.”
Irene touched Sienna’s evil one after another and held up her practice longsword.
Suddenly, the atmosphere at the training ground became an arena.
Aisha looked at Siena and Irene alternately with trembling eyes.
Sienna’s face had completely lost her smile, and Irene’s was the same. It seemed that there was an invisible, rough current flowing between the two.
‘What, what is it? Are they really attached…?’

Aisha looked at Theo. Theo was watching the current scene with interest.
‘There is no need to dry it, right? It’s only sparring.’
Aisha also decided to watch Dalian.
It felt like I was crossing the river, so I swallowed the words that it would be fun.
