Chapter 65 (1/2)
The individuals' tournament of the second term ended with an unprecedented lack of a champion The semi-finals ended with an unsavory pair of a draw and a disqualification And at this tourna with the headmaster, the teachers, and the staff held their heads
The fact that Rudel was the White Knight and Aleist was the Black Knight had been relayed to the palace The palace would be the ones dealing with them, and whatever the case, the academy would not be able to pass down any punishment Luckily, there hadn't been any deaths at the destroyed round Only a feere injured in the evacuation
The center of all this talk, Rudel and Aleist were in the infirmary Rudel was injured, and Aleist was hospitalized for exa that Luecke and Eunius were injured and hospitalized as well
”Oy, so how does it feel Mister Misunderstanding? How does it feel to make an elementary mistake and cause a ruckus over this whole duel mess?”
”… Eunius, so you know the whole time”
”Aaah, what am I supposed to do now”
”Izuon, there's no doubt about it!”
The four were pushed into the ant room of the infirmary, and all but Aleist were in serious condition Three of theed his knees on his bed, s to himself Before the four of them, Izumi distributed fruit to them all
”Rudel! Why didn't you tell me either!?”
”? … About my sister? I certainly bear so that came about However… Luecke, you knew about Erselica, didn't you?”
Luecke was part of high society, and he knew of Erselica He knew, but the girl Lena he h to fill his head What's nize Erselica as Rudel's little sister Tosince noticed his mistake
”Noreht? And who'd have thought you'd fall in love at first sight and challenge someone to a duel?”
Eunius guffawed as he pointed a finger at Luecke Meanwhile, Luecke resolved hi time to come But e
”I should have thought harder too It's only natural for Erselica's engagement to be decided before Lena's Luecke, I'm sorry, but Erselica is…”
”You're wrong, Rudel! The one I fell for is Lena!”
Luecke corrected Rudel'sat those three, Aleist felt a bit envious
(How nice, I want to talk about love too Should I bring up Millia… no, there's no way I could consult with these members)
As Izumi looked at the four, she felt that the cause of all this had been Lena The line that put Rudel off, and Luecke's love that had caused the duel She was quite a peculiar girl, or so Izuht of her
And as the four were irl entered the sickrooht it was right about tiirl was Yunia Luneice, the daughter of a Marquis House Her hair cut straight at her shoulders and her glasses were the girl'sfeatures
The girl was a second year of the funda the tournament period, it was only natural for the fundamental curriculu Once that was over, she made a request to hter, she was let through as a special case
”P-pardon my intrusion”
Giving an aard greeting, Yunia offered a bow to the Three Lords' children beforebefore Aleist as he sat on the bed, she suddenly handed over a letter Perhaps she was nervous as her hands were shaking
”…? What's this?”
Aleist accepted the letter and started at it in wonder Looking at Yunia's reddened face and the cutesy letter, everyone thought She didn't have to give it to him in such a place… but Aleist hadn't noticed In his perplexion he tried to open it on the spot, and Yunia hurriedly stopped him
”S-senpai! U-um, could you please have a look at it later?”
”Eh? Oh, sure”
Leaving only those words, Yunia retreated froirl herself left with quick, bashful steps
”… I wonder what it could be”
Seeing Aleist had still yet to realize, Rudel opened his mouth
”Isn't that a challenge to a duel? The way that girl carried her body wasn't half bad”
Realizing that Rudel hadn't noticed either, the re the letter then and there, Aleist felt quite reluctant to duel a girl as he read it thought After reading it once, his hands started shaking as he read it again
”W-what do I do!?”
”Calm down, Aleist Whether you decline or accept, your sincerity is what's iirl, but as you are now, you have an a your opponent”
”… Rudel, you still think this is a duel? And what's gotten into you? Haven't you been confessed to left and right?”
Luecke pointed out Rudel'sa fuss over the confession itself It was only now that he realized the sender was Yunia Luneice Yunia of the chestnut hair had been a ro as the main character's junior
