dangling.
The old, crumbly wooden sword that Edinburgh Rose was holding fell to the floor of the gymnasium.
Perhaps because it was made of solid wood, the moment the wooden sword fell, the dust and sand accumulated on the floor of the gym flew around.
” sister? “
Leonardo Curz looked at Rosé’s behavior suspiciously.
The Edinburgh Rose that Kurz knew was a person who never let go of his sword during training.
Rosé was a human being who continued training with her hands and wooden swords fixed with a cloth, even though her hands became iron armor because she wielded the wooden sword too much.
Rosé was so obsessed with the sword that anyone else would call it madness.
But then she let go of the sword.
“Rommel…?”
“?”
‘ Was it that one? ‘
When Rommel’s name was mentioned, Rosé’s red eyes fluttered for a moment.
Kurz, who has been an acquaintance of Rosé since childhood, noticed Rosé’s nursery rhyme.
Rosé, who would normally have said, “Yeah?”, was agitated to the point of being suspicious.
And the head starts to roll.
Leonardo Curz was a man who planned ahead and moved.
From an early age, he felt that physical work was not fit for the spirit, and he preferred to go to social parties with his father.
Leonardo’s father, who thought it was the courage of his childhood, let him do whatever he wanted.
Kurz stumbled upon the Edinburgh Rosé while snooping around at a social party.
The Leonardo family and the Edinburgh family did not have any interaction with each other, so Rose and Kurz had not met at the social gathering.
However, Curz constantly pushed Rosé with his unique affinity, and Rosé, who lost his older brother and closed the door of his heart, slowly opened the door of his heart to Curz.
Of course, there was no rational feeling between the two.
Curz is only interested in a character named Edinburgh Rosé, and Rosé only accepts because it is bothersome to push Kurz who is approaching recklessly.
So Kurz already knew who the Edinburgh Rosé was.
for the sword.
by sword.
wielding only a sword.
A sample of an honest and upright knight.
That was the Edinburgh Rose.
But what about the current Rosé?
She, who is called the specimen of a knight, was dyed like a girl in puberty, and her face was dyed like red.
“Are you friends?”
Curz noticed Rosé’s unusual reaction and asked a question to sneak a peek at Rosé.
” ..a little acquaintance.”
Kurz noticed the relationship between Rosé and Rommel vaguely.
“I’m really glad that you said that you’re close. It’s only now that I realize that the world is so small.”
Kurz drenched in a friendly smile.
I had a feeling that things were going to work out.
If Rommel and Rosé are friends, and Rosé considers Rommel special, the story will get faster.
“..how did you get to know Rommel?”
‘Sister..? ‘
I’ve seen Rosé for years, but it’s not uncommon for Rosé to give someone a supreme title.
At best, only the royal family and a few people whom he respected.
Kurz began to be convinced of the assumption that Rosé had a special regard for Rommel.
So Kurz began to unravel more information about Rommel.
“I’m thinking of having an accident this time with my classmates, Griff Rommel and Espera Louie.”
“It means that the accident will receive a personal award.”
“Yes, that’s right.”
After thinking about something for a moment, Rosé picked up a wooden sword that had fallen on the floor of the gym and let out a shallow sigh.
“..Winning an individual award will be difficult.”
” I know. “
“The meaning of being the first is special to everyone.”
Whether it’s first love, first impression, or first meeting.
The meaning of being the first is important to everyone.
A chance to leave your name in the history of the empire for hundreds of years.
The first individual award given since the establishment of the Montegro Academy.
Rosé, who knew the meaning, looked at Kurz’s argument pessimistically.
Raise the wooden sword slowly and place your gaze straight ahead.
And quickly scroll from top to bottom.
Boo-woong!
Suddenly, a burst of air passed through Kurz’s face, and Kurz’s blue hair fluttered in the wind.
And Rosé turned to face Kurz’s confident face.
“And this personal award is very meaningful because the princess herself is in charge of it. Right now, my juniors from the knights’ academy, my classmates, and even seniors are rushing with their eyes on.”
“I know that too.”
Rosé looked a little pathetic at Kurz, who was smiling casually.
I started to worry that I might go wrong because of that innocent personality.
“..It was like the first time we met, but you are so confident. You need to change your personality.”
Kurz was such a person.
A person who believes in himself, does not doubt himself, and walks the right path he has made.
But when such a person is betrayed and turned down, life is more miserable than anyone else’s. Rosé knew that.
“I look at myself and what I’m going to do more objectively than anyone else. But I think that winning this individual award is possible even if you look at it objectively and pessimistically.”
“Is that Rommel junior?”
“I’d say it’s half right.”
Rosé nodded and affirmed Kurz’s words.
Rosé implicitly believed in Rommel.
Even if they didn’t win the personal award, Rommel seemed like he would make a name for himself in the fight for some reason.
The moment he was about to swing his sword like that.
Curz’s bombshell devoured Rosé.
“So I made an appointment with Rommel.”
” ──What?”
“Let’s go together, sister. Everyone is eagerly waiting for you.”
“I need an explanation.”
Rosé begins to tremble like a person with a cold.
Even though her bones were cracked, she did not tremble, and began to tremble at each word of Kurz.
“I’ll introduce you to it. Just by the way, you said that you and Rommel are acquaintances, so things will be easier.”
“..I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
” actually… “
The sudden development of the situation led to a cognitive dissonance for Rosé, and Kurz simply told Rosé the story he had had with Rommel so far.
Some preparations are needed for the counter-resistance, and a sister is needed to gather the children. etc.
” ..that’s how it came to be.”
“..this..this..crazy..!”
As Kurz’s story ended for several minutes, Rosé’s expression began to turn to embarrassment.
In the end, Kurz got a swear word from Rosé.
“Wait a minute!”
” yes? “
Rosé left Kurz in a hurry and started to walk out of the gymnasium.
It was too embarrassing to show Rommel the way he is now.
Sweat-drenched clothes, dust marks on his face, just a simple ponytail tied back.
To others, especially to Rommel, I hated it more than I wanted to die.
If I met Rommel like this…
You will be hated to death by Rommel.
‘ no..! ‘
Rosé, imagining Rommel’s disgusting expression, started running towards her dormitory at full speed.
Even if you can’t decorate like other young girls, shouldn’t you at least act like a human?
*******
In front of the entrance to the gymnasium where the students of the Knights Faculty practice.
We were waiting for Kurz to bring Rosé sunbae under the hot sun.
Kurz, who entered with a confident expression, had been missing for an hour, and we were waiting for him like a dog chasing chickens.
“To finally meet Rosé sunbaenim whom I respect…! This is the opportunity of a lifetime!”
“Is it that good?”
“Of course! It seems that Prince Rommel doesn’t know how great Rosé-senpai is. The romance of many Knights Faculty students! A model of a knight who never lets go of his sword!”
Louie’s mouth was constantly chattering.
Isn’t the fact that you can meet idols that good?
Like a fan who has an intuition for idols, Louis snorted and entered a state of extreme excitement.
Even though Louis was like that, I was slowly getting annoyed.
What are you doing with people standing up in the hot sun?
At least he bought me a cold drink, or Curz went in after just talking to her daughter.
My legs are starting to numb, and sweat is starting to well up on my forehead.
I was constantly listening to Louie’s praises of Rosé senior.
” ..the gymnasium is filthy wide.”
I was too bored to just wait, so I glanced at the gymnasium where the students of the Knights Faculty were training.
As expected, the gym was clean and well-organized.
And above all, it was incredibly spacious.
Enough for all the failing class students to enter and practice.
“Ace.”
Then a familiar sound began to be heard next to him.
At 6 o’clock, when I heard a sweet voice like my hometown, I turned my head and looked to the side.
“I’ve got bad luck.”
There was a monster with two impressive jaws.
Hans, who had touched me until just a few days ago, was looking at me with a frown.
“Why? What’s going on, Hans?”
“It’s nothing, let’s go in.”
“Is it because of those bastards?”
Besides, Hans’s friends are also attached to him.
They played with each other, and Hans’s friends were the same guys.
When they saw Louis and me, the failing class, they started arguing among themselves, and then one of them started walking towards it.
“Hey, don’t do it.”
Hans grabbed his friend’s shoulder and tried to stop him, perhaps because he remembered Rosé’s warning.
“What, don’t do it. Go in first. I was bored, but it worked out.”
As if he had heard Hans say with the back of his ear, he waved off Hans’s hand, smiled like a mischievous man, and walked in front of me.
And the guy looking at me like a zoo monkey and talking.
“Woah, my friends in the failing class. Did you come all the way here to have something to eat?”
The only polite thing that comes out from the beginning is the first word I ate with rice.
oh well, you got it
I’m still not feeling well, but let’s play with me sometime today.
