The contest was created with the purpose of examining the abilities of the students who have just entered the academy by realizing the counter-resistance, a war in which swords and magic collide on the battlefield as a simulation, and to see the level of skill improvement of current students.
The students had a chance to show their sharpened swords and magic to the insiders and current students to their heart’s content, and the professors and scouts even pre-ordered the students to be scouted through the competition.
“Did you hear about this tournament? Did the failing class beat the honor class?”
“Don’t lie, how did the failing class beat the honor class?”
“Is it real?! You didn’t watch the contest? Are you buzzing about it right now?”
” ..Really? “
And this is a hot topic that occupied students’ attention in this opposition.
Students and professors who had an intuition for the competition evaluated the competition with one voice.
– It’s unbelievable, I didn’t expect the students in the failing class to have this level of competence.
– The whole time I was watching, I couldn’t keep my mouth shut, the failing class with mediocre skills… Showing this level of potential…
– The scouts are in a hurry to edit the report. This was unprecedented.
– Wait, I have to go to the interview right now? Could you please wait a minute?
Failing class, abandoned failing students, they beat the elite class called the highest elite in the Montegro Academy.
Even if their sword skills were modest or their magic was poor, they played a game of guerrilla warfare and deception, and rumors began to spread that the leader of the class, Garcia, was lying in the infirmary.
Inside the Academy building, which receives celebrities from the outside.
The harmony between the sophisticated Gothic style and the magnificent Romanesque style made viewers admire.
And the man who leads the tormented body inside the building and enters the room.
A man who stole the hearts of women by wearing expensive fabrics and a hairstyle that is fashionable in the empire.
“I’m tired.”
Order of succession to the imperial throne, second place.
The prince of the empire, Jejus.
He returned to his quarters, receiving the enthusiastic support of the knights.
“I did not know that the Ottoman-Turkish envoys could be so rude.”
“I can’t help it, you’re the envoy of a country that is emerging as a new power in the East.”
” ..still. “
“The Knight Commander.”
Jejus cut off the commander’s words and spoke softly.
As if the treasured sword that the prince was proud of represented the mood of the owner, he began to tremble.
” Yes? “
“Let’s go that far, it’s making me feel a little uncomfortable.”
” ..All right. “
After turning the eyes of the outside to counter-resistance, they meet the reapers of the Ottoman Empire.
Up to that point.. it was good, but Otman – The envoys of the Turkic Empire did not like meeting the prince.
– Don’t you already have a prince in your country?
– To put a second prince in place of the crown prince, are you making fun of our empire?
– Call the Crown Prince. That way, the story seems to be right.
There was already a person with a strong position as the emperor, the first prince, but he treated Prince Jejus in such a way that the second prince came out.
Prince Jess had to quench the anger that rose from the depths of his heart.
However, he could not express his anger.
They are Otman, who boasts an unrivaled position in the East – because they are the messengers representing Turki.
The Shinigami is like the face that represents the country.
If Prince Jejus had expressed his anger toward the reaper, it was obvious that the reaper would go to the first prince as it is.
“But I got a positive response, so it was done.”
” ..All right. “
However, the harvest was not at all.
As the story progressed, the Ottoman Empire’s messenger liked the prince’s honest personality.
As an ambassador who had to contain the Holy Ruth Empire at the same time, Prince Jejus was a useful hand.
From the point of view of Prince Jejus, the interests of each other coincided as the first prince had to be checked.
So I held hands.
Despite the humiliation, this meeting was worthwhile and meaningful.
Prince Jejus decided to swallow the humiliating disgrace inside.
“Let’s put this aside and move on to another topic.”
The face of Prince Jejus, who was looking at the leader of the Knights Templar, turned slowly.
At the end of the prince’s gaze, Princess Herje, who was looking at the prince unfavorably, was sitting on the other side of the prince.
“This counterattack… The results are quite interesting, I’m curious what you think as the student council president.”
” ..how are you asking me for an opinion?”
“I don’t really have any intentions. It’s just pure curiosity. To change my mind.”
Prince Jejus picks up a transparent glass full of red-violet wine.
As he looked at the swaying wine glass, Prince Jejus began to speak.
“Grif… did you say Rommel? He was quite a funny guy. To kneel down on the eldest son of the Lewis family… he did a pretty funny thing.”
“…”
When the name Griff Rommel came up, Hergé trembled.
Jejus’ act of trying to take something away from him again, but he couldn’t respond to the prince’s words.. It was a very helpless moment.
What is the use of being a princess, and what is a princess who can’t have anything she wants?
Why are the older brothers trying to take everything they wanted?
“Do you know anything about Griff Rommel? Sister.”
However, the tea should not be served.
Pretend you don’t care, pretend you don’t care.
Erje desperately hid her heart from the prince.
If any interest in Griff Rommel was discovered… because it was clear that the Prince would relentlessly take Rommel away from him.
He bit his lip slightly, calmed his shaking heart, and answered the prince’s question slowly.
” ..I don’t know the details. The fact that I’m a failing student is all I know.”
“Is it the gemstone that was hidden under the sand?”
Tuk-tuk, the prince slamming his finger on the table and thinking.
The wine, which had not yet been drunk, made small waves and vibrated the glass shallowly.
“..Do you think that a man named Griff Rommel is a gemstone?”
“It’s still half-and-half. Rumors may have been inflated. It’s impossible to meet in person.”
Jejus was the prince of the empire, a body that should not be missed in the numerous schedules to come.
Already having to fight a painful political battle with the first prince, Jejus became a body that was forced to participate in a social church semi-compulsively.
” ..Let’s send one person. Knight Commander.”
“Yes, please Xiamen.”
“Choose one of the Knights of White Lions who has a good eye for people and send it to a boy named Griff Rommel.”
“I’ve been commanded.”
So, Jess asked a subordinate to look at Rommel.
If he was as clever and useful as the main character of the rumor…Jesus was willing to put him down and use him.
And there was no way Herje could not have noticed the obvious intentions of Prince Jejus.
A sticky and unpleasant feeling that welled up in his chest.
I wanted to run to Rommel right now, hold hands and shout to him to be with me.
However, that can’t be the case, if he reveals his heart to the prince in front of him… because everything goes in vain.
The princess persevered.
I’ve always been patient since I was little, so I thought I could bear this much…
Tired and stuffy chest.
Did you have any problems with the breakfast you ate in the morning? I thought, but the princess soon… noticed the feeling that something in her heart was stabbing her.
Raise your right hand and place your hand on your chest.
thump..thump..
I began to feel the still and powerful beating of my heart at my fingertips.
But… my heart was beating a little faster than usual… a lot.
It was clear that the emotions he was feeling were affecting his heart.
I didn’t know what that feeling was…but I was certain of one thing.
I don’t want to lose Rommel.
I want to keep that man by my side.
A simple yet childish feeling.
However, for the princess, Rommel was a precious jewel that only she had to know.
So I didn’t want to lose it.
I want to put him in my arms and make my dreams come true.
I want to make my name known to the continent along with my people.
..I wanted to be greedy.
I made enough concessions… So…
Wouldn’t it be okay to be a little greedy?
I don’t think there’s any need to yield to that older brother who has everything.
Discomfort, and the feeling that I will no longer yield to my older brothers.
He grabbed the skirt with both trembling hands.
Her fingernails dug into her skin, but Erje was not agitated at all.
Like a doll, like a toy, obediently listening to her brother.
The prince seemed to be very satisfied with Herze’s attitude, so he got up with a satisfied smile.
When the prince rose from his seat, one of the knights of the Knights of the White Lions took the prince’s coat and put it on the prince’s shoulder.
“I’m going to have to go now, because I’m a little behind schedule.”
“..Are you going to a social church?”
“Yeah, you shouldn’t be late for the social gathering hosted by the Duke. It’s an important alliance.
“It’s raining outside, so we’ll take care of it.”
“..I hope you are doing well. I’ll call you later.”
“Go with caution.”
Prince Jejus opens the door to the drawing room and walks slowly.
Erje looked at the prince’s back without saying a word.
A wide back like a mountain, and numerous decorations on the coat.
The eagle symbolizes glory, honor, and empire.
tuk tuk tuk.
The rain from the sky hit the window terribly, and the princess did not lose sight of the prince until he left the building.
One day I will make the eagle my own.
Place your palms on the windowsill.
The cold, cold glass feel penetrates the skin.
” …
The princess frowned at the slight pain.
Maybe it was because I had clenched my hand too tightly before, thick drops of blood start to flow down the window.
The drops of blood flowed down slowly and stopped at some point, and the imposing figure of the prince was reflected through the drops of blood.
Prince Jejus goes out of the main gate with the White Lion Knights.
The princess stared quietly at the prince, then turned her head and looked into the room.
The prince is no longer
There is no white lion knights protecting him.
Now… you won’t have to worry about your gaze.
A disgrace that stabs oneself to the point of terrifying.
insult from the prince.
The princess began to walk outward, holding everything in her heart.
In order to convey her feelings to the person she wants to meet now, the princess walked out with her eyes out of focus.
And the destination the princess was going to… was decided from the beginning.
