I Possessed an Academy Without a Protagonist chapter 209

209. No more, no less

Tuk.

Schlus’s arm fell to the bed without strength.

Schlus is asleep with his eyes closed.

Tree looked down at his face and sighed heavily.

“It’s because of me.”

“It’s not like that.”

“It all happened because I was weak.”

Iris’ consolation was of little help.

Tree was already convinced.

“I came to my senses this time. I was weak, so Schluss got hurt and almost died… I have to become stronger.”

“That would be me too. If only I had been strong enough to defend myself-“

“No. There are many things Iris can do besides fighting. For me, there is only fighting. I am worthless if I am not stronger than anyone else…”

“·······.”

To Trier’s bitter smile, Iris was unable to respond.

It was clear that any words of comfort would be poisonous to Trier in that state.

“I have to leave training and come back. I won’t come back until I’m strong enough to protect Schluse.”

“Go, suddenly? Even if you go, talk to Schluss before you go.”

“No. If I wake up and catch Schluss, I’m sure I won’t be able to leave. So before I wake up…”

Trier took his paper, scribbled something on it with a pen, then folded it and put it on his table.

To leave without saying goodbye.

Have you thought about the position of letting go?

Iris stopped biting her lips.

“If you ever get into a crisis that’s too much to handle, call me. Every time I move, I’ll tell you the location. It’s a secret from Schlust, you know?”

“Okay…”

I took on a heavy role while I was careless.

Even though he knows Trie’s location, he has to tell Schluse that he doesn’t know.

I really hate this kind of thing, but since I was asked to do so, I couldn’t do anything about it.

“Where is our first destination, then?”

“The first place I’m going to… I’ve been thinking about it, but I’m going to visit my old teacher. I heard that he’s hiding somewhere in the desert now, so I’ll start by finding him.”

Desert.

To go to that cursed land where it’s hot and dry and life is scarce.

I felt like I knew a little bit how much Triae was willing to engage in training.

Iris decided to send Iman Trier off with all her heart.

I don’t think we can stop it even if we block it in the first place.

From noble mtl dot com.

“I hope to meet you after becoming stronger.”

“Yes. I’ll be right back.”

To Iris, who lifted her skirt and bowed, Trier knelt down on one knee and playfully replied with a knight’s oath.

Tree then left the hospital room with a long sword and never returned.

.

.

.

‘I had to hold onto it…’

Pleshet Mansion.

Iris knelt down on his desk and tapped it with her fingers.

I was afraid to meet Schluse again.

I was afraid they would question Trier’s whereabouts.

No, to be precise, I was afraid that I would have to lie to Schluss at that time.

But more than that-

‘Ah. Why did you say that…’

I suddenly regretted my confession to Schluss.

At that time, it was clear that I had gone mad.

Until now, you’ve been keeping the line just barely.

While longing for him, he must have been well satisfied with the position of watching him from afar.

Why on earth all of a sudden…

“I must be really crazy…”

Still, I added a word to ask him to forget it clearly.

Please forget about it because I didn’t say it out of my mind.

Fortunately, Schluss was not an ordinary nerd.

He must believe that there is an intoxicating ingredient in the elixir.

I’ll pretend I didn’t hear that.

‘Yes. Let’s give up at this point.’

You must be punished like this because you covet other people’s things.

Iris reflected on her past self and decided to give up Schluse.

As a saint, I want to share love with more people.

This is also the right way.

Reverently without looking elsewhere…

Thung. Thud.

At that time, there was a knock on the door.

“Yes?”

“Lady, His Excellency Schluss Heinkel wants to see you.”

“Ah, ah… That, then I’ll be there soon-“

“He’s on his way to his room.”

“Yes?!”

The Schluss are already on their way?

Who opened the door?

‘Damn old people…!’

After shedding her sighs, Iris hurriedly took off her nightgown and started changing her clothes.

The sound of her dull shoes seemed to be approaching.

It was the last time she tied her long hair back with a hair tie.

Smartly······

“Come in.”

“·······.”

Immediately after the knock, the door opened.

Schlus Heinkel entered with a silent eye salute and slammed the door shut.

She glanced at his face, and Iris felt her heart sink.

A faint scar was visible on the tip of Schluss’ cheek.

“You come so suddenly to her lady’s room. You have no manners.”

“I couldn’t help it because it was urgent.”

“What’s so urgent?”

It was obvious.

She must have come to ask if she knows where she is in order to capture Trier.

However, there was nothing Iris could tell right away about this.

I only know that I’m going somewhere in the desert, but I haven’t been told the exact destination yet.

“The answer to love confession is urgent.”

“Ah…!”

I was taken aback by the unexpected words that came out of his mouth.

The soundproofing here is worse than I thought.

Iris immediately tried to hurriedly use the cognitive suppression system, but it failed every time.

It wasn’t because he was agitated.

There was someone who was intentionally blocking the development of the barrier.

“What is this…”

“What are you doing? You want to mess around with other people’s heads and forget them?”

“·······.”

He had nothing to say about it.

While remaining silent because she had nothing to say, Iris had to endure the twitching of the corners of her mouth.

Thinking that that word caused a huge wave in Schlus’ heart, he seemed to keep laughing.

“I’d like to propose marriage, Iris.”

“Ho, marriage talk?! How could you joke like that against a saintess-“

“I’m not joking, I’m serious.”

“Ah ah ah. It was about my marriage to my niece that I talked about the other day.”

“No. Iris, it’s a marriage with you.”

“·······.”

Iris kept her mouth shut.

By now, the maids should be sticking to the door and eavesdropping.

The thought that this story was all leaked made her face turn red.

“What are you thinking…”

“Isn’t this the mansion of the Plechet family? If there are no spies inside, I don’t think we need to worry about the rumors leaking out.”

“That’s not the problem…”

This man had no idea what the problem was.

Of course, this story itself won’t go outside of Pleschette.

However, the problem was that everyone staying in this mansion would soon find out that I had confessed to Schluss.

If it even reaches the ears of the elders, how should I live in shame…

“You have to choose, Iris. Do you want to live as a saintess or as my wife? Of course, choosing the latter doesn’t mean you have to give up your status as a saint right away. You can get married when you want.”

“·······.”

It was a sweet offer.

If you gave me a chance to choose like that, it was obvious what to choose.

Of course, as desire dictates…

“I-“

“I forgot to tell you. I have already promised to marry you.”

“Yes? Who is that?”

“That’s hard to say.”

“·······.”

Iris stopped and she froze on the spot.

Even when he stared at Schluse in amazement, his expression didn’t change at all.

I didn’t mean to joke.

What do you mean when you come to propose marriage?

Have you already promised to marry someone?

And you can’t tell me its name?

“What the hell are you-“

***

I was rejected.

That too properly.

“Are you okay?”

“Oh, yes. It’s fine.”

I got her ice pack from her maid and put it on my cheek.

The cheek was hit so hard that it swelled up quite a bit.

I didn’t know Iris’ hands were so spicy.

I had to leave the Flechette Mansion, rubbing my tingling cheeks.

‘I made a mistake…’

I was too arrogant.

Gee, what kind of Casanova?

To think that I could get approval even after proudly declaring that I am the owner.

I’m crazy, really.

“Stupid.”

“·······.”

This was exactly what I heard from Emilia as soon as I returned home and explained what had happened.

It was such an accurate diagnosis that I couldn’t think of anything to say.

“Brother, are you really crazy? Are you willing to flirt with me or not?”

“No, I wasn’t trying to seduce you, I just wanted to make an alliance with Pleshet through marriage-“

“Stop making excuses! You have to seduce the saintess to form an alliance!”

“·······.”

However, I ended up in a position where Emilia was getting scolded.

Before I knew it, I was sitting in front of Emilia in an upright position, bowing her head.

“Then go back now and pretend that you said you were engaged was a lie-“

“Wow. You seriously thought of that as a method? It’s really the worst.”

“Then what should I do…”

“I have to woo you hard. Don’t speak in such an arrogant position that you accept the saintess’ confession. Oppa, too, be more earnest.”

“It sounds like it will be difficult.”

“Why?!”

“I don’t think I love Iris that much.”

“·······.”

Emilia rubbed her forehead as if feeling frustrated. She

She said me too, but she was pathetic to herself.

There is a bastard who wants to take down the woman she doesn’t love from her saintly position and make her his wife.

Even when you clearly know that the other person really likes you.

For a moment, I wondered if it was okay for this scumbag to be alive.

“When did you change your mind? I thought my brother liked the saintess.”

“To think I’m losing my mind. I’ve never liked it from the beginning.”

“Brother, don’t you have any feelings for the real saint?”

“I think there is none… Except for s*xual desire.”

“Gee, really? heheheh. Heh. That’s right… I totally misunderstood…”

Emilia seemed oddly happy.

She fanned her face and glanced at her, and then Emilia met her eyes and came closer.

I was pushed by Emilia and fell to the floor.

“Then brother… Let’s do this.”

From noble mtl dot com.

“·······?”

Emilia tucked her hair behind her ears and then she grabbed my cheeks and brought her head closer.

Her hair, which had just been tossed back, dripped down again and tickled my face, but there was no escape.

Emilia’s cute red lips touched her chin, a little below mine.

It seems that her aim failed because she closed her eyes.

Perhaps she was embarrassed, Emilia blushed even more. This time, she let out a chow sound as she properly landed on my lips. She

Took her tongue as it rode her lips and pushed her into it.

It tasted both sweet and bitter.

Just as she was about to savor the taste a bit more, Emilia exhaled and parted her lips.

Emilia’s expression on her face also seemed to be crying a little.

“No more, no less…. Please love the saintess just as much as you love me. From now on, you will love the saintess just as much. What do you think?”

“·······.”

It was a proposal that did not provide a solution at all.

Then she couldn’t love Iris at all.

Because I don’t see you as the opposite s*x.
