6.5 Silent Night, Holy Night (2)
Lions live in the northern part of the empire.
It was nonsense, but it was a story that led to common sense on the continent. There was only one possibility that the lion, often seen only in the East, wandered the North.
was driven out of the East.
The Yurdina family was born that way. A long time ago, he was a vassal of a country that unified the continent, but held his breath while suffering the humiliation of being driven out to the northern part, which was barren at the time. And in the end, it was Yurdina that became one of the contributors to the birth of the empire.
The harsh environment of the north and the years of hard work made Yurdina even stronger.
Except for Luphemion in the east, it was a situation where there was no suitable opponent to compete for the position of the best samurai. The position of Yurdina, who had seized the military power of the empire, was just as good.
And Yurdina Castle, called the heart of the North.
The office of the governor, located at the highest point there, was in ruins. The strict security of the notorious Yurdina Castle was to the point of being colorless.
However, those who knew the identities of the two women confronting each other in the office would have no choice but to admit that this was also unavoidable.
He was sitting with the opposite look of gold and silver.
First of all, the girl with gray hair was out of shape. Light blood oozes from the clothes that were torn here and there, and countless cuts including cuts.
The woman, driven into the corner of the office, was gasping for breath. The girl’s blue eyes were seething with life as cold as frost.
At the end of his gaze was a woman with brilliant golden hair.
Sitting on a chair, the white fingers across the glass made an alluring face. The woman’s face, with her legs crossed and a bored expression, did not look good to anyone.
It was an angry face.
The curves of the female body were barely visible through the disheveled light pink gown. In addition, the slightly rough breath and a few drops of sweat on the skin were telling the traces of the battle.
Seria Yurdina and Delphine Yurdina.
They were women who symbolized silver and gold, respectively, and half-sisters who held the real power of the Yurdina family.
Of course, it was not a position that a single guard could block.
“… … Seria, this sister is very disappointed.”
At the sudden criticism, Seria couldn’t control her emotions that filled her with tears.
The one who wanted to be angry was rather Seria. It had only been a few days since the front line of the previous battle had been reorganized and returned to Yurdina Castle.
Seria was happy at the thought of going to sleep among dolls that imitated the appearance of her beloved senior after a long time. I was going to have a fun break today, burying my face in the coat my beloved senior was wearing.
Delphine was the one who broke this sweet moment mercilessly.
Seria, who was called unexpectedly, had to face all sorts of provocations in the office. It was mainly about the night she burned with her beloved senior, and Seria, who was not good enough even without that, drew her sword straight away.
The result was this.
Seria lost. It was the same scenery as always, and now there were no vassals even clamoring up.
It’s been a long time since the Yurdina family became the bean flour family.
Aww, wow.
The sound of Seria grinding her teeth echoed.
“… … bitch.”
“What did you say?”
Seria chose to keep her mouth shut at Delphine’s questioning.
Seria’s face was full of annoyance. In my mind, I wouldn’t feel relieved even if I had to split the fight, but it was after the victory or defeat had already been decided.
Seria wasn’t stupid enough to earn a meaningless beating.
Her eyes narrowed for an instant, but Delphine snorted as if she wasn’t interested. At the same time, even the posture of tilting the glass was enchanting.
“Anyway, Seria… I was expecting you Since I can’t come out in public, I wanted you to come out and seduce Seo-Bang.”
“Are you in heat? Then why don’t you learn how to handle it alone, isn’t Ian-senior enough to hang out with sows?”
“If you also spend the night with Mr. Seo… No, it’s done. What can I say in front of you?”
Seria gnashed her teeth again and almost raised her voice.
It was because a blatant sneer formed on Delphine’s lips. However, when another piece of information spewed out of her mouth, Seria had no choice but to freeze with her eyes wide open.
“… … The saintess beat the ball.”
At that one word, Seria had to blink her eyes with her mouth shut.
It was clear what ‘professional’ means in dating. Isn’t the reason why Seria is being humiliated by Delphine right now because the player was taken away?
Delphine continued her soft voice as if she knew it would happen.
“I made an open courtship. That too in front of tens of thousands of witnesses… It was just after the miracle of returning unscathed from a burning pyre. The ignorant people are so excited that they are ready to put on a play.”
“Oh, that can’t be… … .”
Seria’s eyes toward the floor began to shake aimlessly.
Ian senior would have asked me to wait.
I had no idea that something like that would happen in just a few weeks. Seria couldn’t even afford to chew on her lips in nervousness.
On the other hand, it felt like Delphine’s attitude was now understandable.
The reason why Delphine is in a particularly bad mood today.
It was jealous. Ugly enough, this sex-crazed bitch took a quick turn at the threat of losing her husband.
So he called Seria, who knew nothing, and beat him up for nothing.
It was a personality that made me admire every time I saw it. Seria decided that she would have to plan an assassination using poison in the near future.
“Seria, do you know? The fact that Seobang-sama is a person we need in Yurdina in some way… You can’t be robbed like this of an unmanned person who has reached a whopping high expert level.”
Seria was still not free from the shock. There was no way to stop the laughter that leaked out inadvertently.
Is it necessary in any way?
The intention was clearly visible.
If Seria makes every effort to bring Ian to Yurdina Castle, she must be thinking of seducing the senior she loves whenever she feels like it. It was a future that made me nauseous just imagining it.
crazy year.
However, Delphine’s logic was close to the truth, and Seria did not want to add a refutation. It was because I sympathized with the opinion itself that Ian could not be taken away like this.
Right now, it was a plate that I had to borrow someone’s hand.
Even if that opponent is a Cheolcheon enemy who wears a sister’s mask.
Delphine was indeed quick-witted. As Seria hesitated without any objection, he accepted it as an unspoken consent at once.
“… … Own it by any means.”
It was a plain and dry instruction.
It meant an order given as the head of Yurdina, not as ‘Delphin’. No matter how much Seria hated her sister, her loyalty to her family was genuine.
Eventually, Seria got down on one knee and bowed her head.
It was the attitude of a vassal who obeyed the command of the family head.
“If you need money, spend it until it runs out. If force is needed, enlisted soldiers, if temptation is needed, even by sacrificing one’s body… Oh, this is too much.”
“What’s wrong with my body?!”
Of course, it wasn’t long before the controversy flared up again.
Seria stuttered and had to emphasize the curves of her body.
“I’m not the kind of body that can go anywhere, either! There is no difference between me and my sister… … .”
“Tsk tsk.”
As if it wasn’t worth listening to Seria’s objections, Delphine clicked her tongue and sipped her wine.
“So you are a virgin. Didn’t the West touch you for nothing?”
“… … This, a prostitute.”
Seria’s eyes, which had been stabbed with painful wounds, sparked again.
Soon, a storm raged once again in the house of the governor. Sitting on the other side of that gate, leaving the tearful vassals behind.
It was the sad situation of the Yurdina family.
**
I closed the front island and prepared to go out.
It was like that before, but after the last incident, the number of people paying attention to me at the academy had increased. In particular, the frequency of gossips among women who saw me was high.
Their interest was one.
Who will I dance with at the Holy Night Festival?
Most of them were saints. After kissing in front of tens of thousands of people, which was like a confession, my partner had already been recognized as a saint for a long time. Strictly speaking, public expectations were that high.
She was a woman who never gave up on anyone.
The story of a saintess who challenged an honor trial to rescue a woman in danger and performed a miracle after hundreds of deaths set fire to the hearts of many people.
If I didn’t choose a saintess as a mate, he was ready to start a riot.
However, the opinions against him were not so good.
“Didn’t you say you were engaged to Senior Percus, Senior Rainella?”
“The reason I can’t see senior Rainella these days is… … .”
“It might be because today is a particularly bad day.”
Whoa, a sigh leaked out of my mouth. In fact, my concerns were not different from theirs.
Too many things have already been done.
Immediately in the north, Delphine and Seria were waiting.
In addition, what will Elsie, who is supposed to be engaged to, or Emma, who is in an unofficial relationship?
I wanted to take a day and have time to organize my mind about it. Unfortunately, I still had work to do.
Right now, the saintess was also left in the kingdom to take care of the case. I also had to shoulder the responsibility of taking care of Celine and Lia, who could not escape the aftereffects.
But karma always comes back unexpectedly.
It was the same for me.
“You, you son of a… … !”
My eyes turned to the back at the voice full of hatred and resentment. There was a brown-haired boy with a fine appearance.
Even though those blue eyes were on the verge of turning over.
It was Lupin, the younger brother of Elsie senior.
I touched my forehead with an expression that said something had come. I couldn’t even open the letter from the Rainella family out of fear, but I fully sympathized with that feeling.
A man who is about to get engaged to his daughter suddenly spreads rumors of infidelity?
Even if it were me, I would have wanted to draw a bloodline around my neck.
“You, you, you dare… You betray my sister?! Do you think you can be happy with that?!”
It was me who was at fault anyway.
So I tried to unravel the tangle in as quiet a place as possible.
“I’m sorry, Lupine… Am I ‘a bit’ busy right now? So later tonight in my room… … .”
“What?!”
However, Lupine, who had lost his temper, began to become even more frenzied at my words.
It was to the point where thread veins burst out of his bulging eyes.
“Your ‘fuck’ is busy?! You crazy playboy!”
In the end, I had to cover my face with both hands as a sign of surrender.
“Please get off… … !”
The whispers of the onlookers seemed to pierce my chest for no reason.
It was a peaceful daily life at the academy.
*
With a thump, the heavy bag fell onto the table.
Emma couldn’t help but look the other way with bewildered eyes. There, a lovely girl with dark blue hair was smiling.
“How much will it be?”
Putting outrageous words in your mouth.
“That bitch… No, how much did senior Rainella give you?”
A dark fight behind the scenes had begun.
