14 – Entrance Ceremony and Reunion (Lily)

* * * *

The air in the auditorium changes completely and the girl feels that everyone’s eyes are on her.

Even so, the girl didn’t show any disturbance and silently moved towards the podium.

Because I had already gotten tired of the men’s stares full of shady desire.

It is because boys at an age that has not yet matured properly capture the lust for power, the desire for display, and the lust for sexual desire in their eyes without filtering.

‘I’m disgusted to death… Those horny monkeys’

The girl, who had grown accustomed to that blatant gaze, only clicked her tongue slightly.

Eventually, when the girl stepped onto the podium, the principal was also seduced by the strange atmosphere of a girl much younger than himself, so he could not help but stutter uncharacteristically.

It was because the girl contained an atmosphere that was difficult for even him, who had seen countless girls and women, to express.

“Everything, next is the Faculty of Engineers…! Co-chief!!”

‘… co-chief?’

Has there ever been a case where a co-chief was born in the Engineering Department of Solus Academy?

The girl firmly shook her head.

‘In the Faculty of Engineers, where scores are measured in Dalian, not in the General Faculty divided by written test scores?’

That meant that those two were exactly the same skill.

Either one of the Dalian… Or that it ended with no one gaining the upper hand until both fell.

That alone is surprising enough,

Immediately after hearing the principal’s name flowed through the magic tool, the girl made a completely different expression from her usual image.

“Ian Cedric…”

That’s also true of her, who had never revealed her feelings to others since her attendant died a year ago.

“And Berry!!”

“…to?”

Because anyone could see it was blatantly flustered.

… No, in fact, she wasn’t the only one who looked flustered.

Rather, at that time, except for the successful students of the same Faculty of Engineering, who were watching the results of the exam together, all of them moved their heads violently to find out who the ‘Berry’ was.

Just like a girl. everyone has the same thoughts

‘Plains… The head of the Engineering Department?’

Following the humble name of Berry, no family name has been heard… A name that anyone would recognize as a commoner.

Of this Solus Academy, where you can barely enter if you have to undergo rigorous training and instruction from famous knights since childhood,

It was not just a simple list of admitted students, but also because a commoner proudly put his name on the top admission list.

So, just like when the girl stepped on the podium, everyone’s eyes began to turn to the boy.

Unlike the time of the girl who was fascinated by the girl’s elegance and just admired her appearance,

How on earth did that commoner have exceptional talent to enter this academy as the top student… with a look of astonishment.

– trudge

Even so, the boy, like the girl, did not give them even a single glance as if they were laughing at them, and just moved towards the podium.

As if, on this podium, there was something he desperately wanted.

‘Well, the fact that commoners can wear the boutonnier of the academy itself… Even if this is the first and last senior, it’s something to be proud of for a lifetime’

The girl saw the commoner boy’s careless attitude and took it as such.

There’s no doubt that the commoner doesn’t even have time to pay attention to the fact that he’s receiving boutonnieres.

But that girl’s expectations.

“Ian”

“…What’s wrong? Berry”

It went off very nicely.

“During the ceremony, don’t look at me and don’t talk to me. I’ll kill you if you talk to me.”

“…Did I eat something wrong? Why suddenly…”

No matter how you look at it, that boy.

“It’s okay, so answer me”

“Ha… I thought he was a really weird guy from the finals… I got it, I got it, I won’t even look at him until the ceremony is over.”

Because he was really showing the attitude that he didn’t care how the people around him saw him.

‘No matter how inside the academy it is… With the same chief, showing that kind of attitude towards nobles?’

Even more so, he was treating the aristocratic boy who had become the chief with him as if he were treating an old friend.

* * * *

– trudge

The boy on the podium gets closer and closer to the girl.

Then, the boy’s impression was clearly visible.

Light red hair, a color commonly used in women’s clothing, and odd eyes of gold and red.

The strange warmth felt in the boy’s golden and red eyes, shining like aurora, made the girl perplexed.

There is only one man in this world who has ever looked at himself with those eyes.

Because he had only one of his attendants, Finn, now dead.

However, the girl could not help but panic again after a while. No, he had a more blatantly embarrassed expression than before.

Looking at myself with those eyes could at least be dismissed as falling in love at first sight, but

The first words the boy said to him when he approached him were the names he called himself.

It was a way that the girl who remembered the attendant every single day missed it so much.

For some reason, the boy looked at his princess, who was deeply depressed and pitiful.

As usual, with the will to protect her through all adversity and hardship.

As always, with the hope that it would be nice if I could repay even half of the love she gave me.

… Now, it also contains the desire to dedicate everything for one’s master.

“Your complexion doesn’t seem to be very good, Princess. Are there any places where you feel unwell?”

“…”

Princess.

The boy clearly said so. to the girl It’s not ‘Her Highness’ the princess, it’s ‘the princess’.

In a way, it was stern, but since this is an academy, the title should be expressed as rude rather than stern, and the girl shook her shoulders.

“I don’t know when you called me the princess because you saw me…”

When the girl raises her alertness and tries to shoot at the boy,

As always, the boy said with a warm smile to his princess.

“But, Princess, the title of Her Highness…you don’t like it, do you?”

The inside of a girl that only a boy knows.

The girl’s heart, which only the girl’s old attendant understood.

“How do you…”

how do you know that I haven’t even seen you

The girl was about to say that. If the boy didn’t open his mouth and cut off the girl as if he had expected that.

“The princess might not know me, but I know the princess. No, rather, wouldn’t it be more strange not to know someone as famous as the princess? Besides… I saw her before I came here.”

“…The way the princess twitched slightly when she was called by her highness.”

“…”

The girl’s lips trembled slightly and she began to look at the boy with blank eyes.

Did you notice that the boy’s words were lies?

Or was it because he was horrified that he was watching him from a distance where he didn’t even notice the boy’s presence?

Of course it wasn’t anything.

In the first place, the girl was always called by the title of Highness, and she didn’t even pay attention to what others said to her.

‘Someone must have called me that’, I thought.

Also, since he had no reason to remember another man who was not his attendant,

It was because he did not know whether the boy was close to him or far away.

‘Pin and… same thing… ‘

Read at noblemtl. com

Just a girl, a boy who uttered exactly the same lines her attendant had spoken to me.

A boy who looked at him with the same eyes as his attendant.

Seeing the boy who instantly grasped his true intentions, which only his attendant had known until now, was only immersed in memories with the old attendant.

-Her Highness the Princess… ! Or, if you don’t mind, can I call you the princess?

‘Princess… ? It’s fine, but… Why all of a sudden?’

-That’s right, don’t the princess twitch her lips strangely whenever she’s called Her Majesty the Princess? For some reason, I think you dislike being called Highness.

‘… uh, did you notice that? That’s great… Others didn’t say anything… ‘

-Ah~ If you don’t notice this, you can’t be called the princess’s exclusive attendant! But why do you hate the title of Highness? I think it would be nice to feel very cool and respected…

‘Because I hate that’

-Yes?

‘Am I sick with a terminal illness?’

– … That’s right… Now is

‘Whoops… Well, you’re talking like it won’t happen later?’

– … Because I want to make it like that

‘Thank you from the bottom of my heart… Well, anyway, so yes. ‘Cause I’m sick

-Why is that…

‘Am I destined to die without being able to properly lead the country anyway, do I deserve to be called a title that shows respect and reverence… I want to’

‘Rather, you’re just becoming an obstacle for mom and dad who are leading the country… I’m the princess’

‘So that’s how it is. Because I am a princess who does not fit the title of Your Highness. Rather, it’s just a stumbling block for my precious people’

– … So, what if you get sick?

‘What if I get sick? Well… I don’t think so’

– Why, why do you get sick…

‘I’ve already caused a lot of trouble, but now I don’t want to laugh at being called Highness just because I’m getting better.’

“…”

The girl looked at the boy who spoke the same words as the attendant, who was the only one who knew her secret.

“…the princess?”

He obviously behaved the same way as his commoner attendant and looked at him with the same eyes… A commoner boy with a distinctly different appearance from his attendant.

A boy with a completely different size, bone structure, hair color, eye color, and even his name.

‘okay… Even if you know what I mean, you’re not Finn… He’s not the only one I’ve ever given permission to call him that… ‘

… You can call me the princess… Because it’s just a pin.

So said the girl.

“I’m sorry, but I want you to stop calling me the princess.”

“…Yes?”

With the thought that she could not betray the man who gave her life for her love.

“And don’t pretend to be friendly with me. I have no intention of being friendly with anyone other than my fiancé.”

“……N-yes?”

He shows the ring finger of his left hand.

To be precise, the ring finger of his left hand is inserted… He held up a ring with a jewel shining in light purple, the same color as his eyes.

“Because I’m the owner of the body. Don’t be rude and go away.”

That there is someone who has already been decided for you.

“…”

fiance, and ring.

The moment I heard these two things from the girl’s mouth.

The boy’s face, which had been smiling cheerfully for some reason just before, suddenly distorted.

The figure of the boy entered, beginning to make an expression of disbelief.

To such a boy, to a boy whose mental state is on the verge of collapse, a girl… It was time to deliver the final blow.

… With a hope that this boy, who seemed to shake her emotions for some reason, would never appear near her again.

“I don’t want to offend my fiancé, who is far more amazing and much kinder than you, who says he’s the princess the first time I see you today. I’m telling you not to talk to me again.”

‘… ‘Cause I’ve decided to live for Finn for the rest of my life.”

The girl turned her head away from the boy who was staring blankly at her as if she had nothing more to do.

“……”

of the boy who saw it.

Now using the name Berry.

The emotions of joy and emotion from the reunion disappeared from the eyes of the man who was once a pin, and emptiness and anger began to fill in their place.

During that short year when he was not confident, he thought about what kind of bastard had seduced his princess.
