39 – theorem

I felt like I couldn’t control the anger that burst out at the moment, but

I don’t even have the strength to do that anymore.

I have 18 days left on my lifespan, and I don’t have enough time to heat up on stuff like this.

“…Hayu?”

A white dress that is not usually worn, and a modest hairstyle that seems to be conscious of a saintess.

And her red eyes, which symbolize her being a demon, trembled like a heroine of tragic love.

The voice was the same.

“Sir, did you not have enough time to eat? Lunch break… I’ll cut it.”

“……”

“I saw this. The crops Hayu raised… I should buy vegetables from now on… that’s right. I’m the owner, so…”

My fist clenched at the word owner, but Lane, not seeing it, started adding conditions one by one.

“It’s okay if you come to my class from now on and relax. The alchemy professor is tolerant of tardiness. Up to 30 minutes… you’ll be fine…”

“……”

It’s the first time she talks. Rather than a command tone, it feels like a classmate.

But I misunderstood, overlooked, and got angry. It’s really boring now.

“…don’t wash by hand, I’ll leave it to the union supported by Royal Class. You… will not have to go.”

“……”

“That… Howu? Should I answer…?”

She comes up to me and grabs my arm.

-Pak!

I immediately pull out my arm.

These are all useless things. All of her words seem to break like grains of sand before they even reach my ears.

“……I told you. I don’t belong to you anymore.”

Lane grabs his arm again.

“……”

It’s not easy to shake off because it’s inside her barrier.

“I-I know now! How hard Hayu suffered. How much effort you’ve put in for me…!”

“no? Wrong. I acted only for myself. just to live Absolutely not for you.”

“Oh, lie! So, then, everything you faithfully fulfilled my request until now was for the sake of survival?”

“yes.”

“The blood supply…?”

“yes.”

Seeing my answer without moving,

Lane’s words gradually fall apart.

She groaned, folding her trembling fingers.

It was right before I burst out crying.

“Oh… for bringing clothes, for ordering snacks, for receiving letters, for cleaning, for waking me up every morning…”

“Yes, everything, because it’s your order…”

“…The fact that he sometimes showed me an unknown smile…? When I was young, I must have…”

don’t want to hear

“yes. yes of course Are you done now?”

Why are you bringing up the past?

She shook her head in denial.

The trembling of the fingers spread throughout the body. Her stamina is now at its limit.

“Oh no? Then, after meeting Andelson’s girl that day, why did you come to my room…? Come and be sure to obey my words…”

“Huh… it was just a performance. If I hadn’t done that, would you have bothered me again?”

“……”

Lane was shocked for a while, unable to speak.

But she must be a bit aware of her own tendencies.

Because she has always reigned as a predator, she has never been able to understand Eul like me.

She grabs the hem of my dress and shakes it.

I feel a weak force.

“Hayu… isn’t it? You can’t be like that… Certainly the day I fell! You told me so kindly to give up the duel for my sake…”

kindly? I think my memory is a bit fuzzy…

Before I knew it, my tone was no longer formal.

“It was just my useless guilt. I am regretting it now.”

She stared straight into my eyes.

“…So, then Isabella Izanark really wanted me to kill…?”

“……Whoa”

I swept my bangs back in a situation where my hair was throbbing.

she muttered in a weeping voice.

“Tell me… tell me… that’s not…”

Let’s calm down a little. It’s not like there’s a complete back yet.

Let’s keep the minimum dory. Even if it was because of the saintess and Floria.

But there was only formality left in my words.

“okay. Right. I hoped. We are just a master-servant relationship, and I desperately wanted to get away from you.”

“no…”

Lane denies it.

“Right.”

And I affirm again

“No, no, that’s a lie…?”

She began to tighten her grip on the hem of my dress.

– Kkok.

The saintess and Floria also grabbed the hem of my clothes.

Even though it’s the same woman’s signal, it can feel so different.

“saw. Hayu You kissed the saintess on the mouth, didn’t you? With the Andelson woman, I’ve seen it all. Now… It’s okay now. What if more than that? a bit risky though. I can allow it. you can get it all back No, let’s go back together! I’m okay. So… let’s get together again…?”

Her pupils began to collapse little by little at Lane’s gibberish. And even in the middle of it, he forced a smile in the middle of his words.

Now it’s really pushed to the limit.

Was it really a feeling of love, not jealousy of things?

I don’t fully understand why they do this to me.

So before we know more, let’s hammer a wedge.

“…stop it.”

“……?”

“Because every day, every moment with you was hell for me.”

.

.

.

– Chaeng-Geurang!

With those words, Lane’s barrier was broken.

-dump.

she sat down in her seat.

Now, it will be hard to stand up.

I’m not that angular. I speak with my mouth, but I’m a person who doesn’t even know how to hurt my words.

‘after……’

For 10 years, Lane has been with me and knows me well.

He persistently exploited the difference in personality and status.

So, a remark like this would have been considered abusive enough to her.

When I was still, Harold, who was next to me, knelt down and looked at Lane’s condition.

“Arein lady? Arain lady?! Hey what are you…”

He looked back and forth between me and Lane as if he didn’t understand the situation.

Lane did not respond to Harold’s call.

He fainted due to lack of blood supply for a long time.

She closed her eyes like a doll and seemed to be sleeping.

“Harold, let me do one favor too.”

“??… in this situation?”

“It’s almost overworked… it’s something like that. Take care of the lady to the dormitory.”

“Hey, where are you going? Aren’t you a subordinate servant…?”

I waved my hand at Harold, who was staring at me.

“…Not anymore.”

So I blindly headed to the place where my steps landed.

-Shoot it

Central fountain of Lachesis Academy.

Whenever exhaustion is at its peak, seeing water always brings stability to the mind and body.

-Shoot it.

A fountain with a shallow and large square space like a children’s pool is built in front of the central building.

It is said to be a fountain carved with figures who had an influence on the establishment of the academy…

Because of this, the cadets who had business in the central building were circled around it.

But, isn’t that what art is all about?

‘Kick.’

I don’t have enough space in my heart, so I think I’m not good at anything.

‘Still, that’s pretty…’

Flowers in a well-kept garden hang like a maze beside the fountain,

It was showing off the landscaping that embraced the values of this side of the world.

– Fluffy.

I sat down on a suitable bench and fell into contemplation.

.

.

.

– Knock knock.

-chuck.

How long has passed, a shadow is cast over me.

It is a new type of person.

“Here you are. Are you okay?”

It is Eliana who reminds me of a way of speaking, a voice, and a solemn knight.

It feels like I don’t really want to mix with anyone, but status is more troublesome than I thought.

“Ah, Miss Eliana.”

I got up from my seat and greeted him formally.

Even among the fountains that glistened in the sunlight and spouted water, her silver hair had a brilliance that rivaled it.

“I heard you recovered quickly, but I’ve been busy with work.”

“Thank you for your concern.”

Because it’s the vice president. It will be because of the student council.

-Shoot.

We sat side by side on a bench facing the fountain.

“As notified, today, faithfully undergo the investigation by the investigation team. It’s blood magic. It’s a hot topic even outside the academy right now. It would be good for you to know the whole story for sure.”

“yes.”

Do I need to know about blood magic? It’s just a status window in the game.

game…? Yes, I’m in the game. Maybe I was overindulging myself.

Thinking like that, I feel very light about this situation right now. like cosmic dust.

Eliana muttered in pity.

“Anyway, I would never have thought that such an unsavory thing would have been involved in a duel…”

“…wasn’t it that you noticed it to some extent and handed me the note in advance?”

“Well, it’s just a hunch.”

It’s intuition… A woman’s intuition is scary.

So the conversation was cut off once more.

-Shoot it.

-……

As if she had nothing else to say, she shifted her gaze from the fountain and began to look into my eyes.

“……?”

“…Did you get away from her while I was away?”

It’s a ghost.

“Well, yes. How did you know?”

“This time it’s a knight’s intuition. Your eyes are saying so.”

“You are amazing.”

She also tried to free me in a way… Were you interested in that aspect?

At that time, Eliana picked and laughed.

“That’s funny.”

“yes?”

Eliana was really laughing.

It feels like he has a smile in the first place… but the more you look at him, the more you can’t understand his intentions.

“I’m really sorry. I never thought I would give you this kind of news in a situation like this.”

“News?”

Eliana slowly opened her mouth.

“One of the Student Council duties is to approve students’ permission to go out for a long time… I just saw it.”

Unexpectedly, this person seems to like eavesdropping or watching…

“Professor Duke’s field experience group assignment… Arain submitted it in a group with you?”
