chapter 147
147 – {Return or Stay}
{Return or Stay}
The winning party was run as normal, if normal.
Everyone congratulated YuRia, and YuRia spent time eating with her lover, her family, and her friends.
And as the night fell after the celebration party, Duchess Arsane asked Yuria a question.
“Yuria, what are you going to do now?”
“In the future…what are you talking about?”
Yuria guessed what her mother was asking, but she asked back to confirm.
Duchess Ar Sein approached YuRia and gently stroked her hair, and then she smiled benevolently.
“My daughter has won, and her reputation has been made. Can’t she come back soon?”
Duchess Arsane, who had been against her going to her minst academy from the beginning, was hoping that she would return now that she had achieved what she wanted.
She made sure that even if she returned to the Second Academy, she would have no problems now.
It could be seen that she had already accomplished everything she had accomplished at Minst Academy.
Even if she remained at Minst Academy, she would have nothing else to do except accept and defeat the challenges of the challengers.
‘But if it goes back like this… ‘
She would be fine.
But Theodore was likely to become a nuisance.
Today, Theodore announced that he was cooperating with the Britannian Empire.
But what would happen if she immediately returned to the Arkhan Empire as soon as she made the announcement?
Surely, there would be troublesome things going on behind the scenes.
“Give me time to think until tomorrow.”
That’s why Yuria asked her to give her time to think.
“Yes, do it.”
When the Duchess Arsein made a concession, Ashley, who was expecting Yuria’s answer, spoke with regret.
“I hope Yuria comes back early…”
For her, it was a natural reaction since she sincerely hoped that YuRia would come back.
“Sorry, Ashley, but I probably won’t make it through the whole year.”
The tournament, in which there was a conspiracy to uncover Theodore’s identity, became an opportunity for Yuria, and she seized the opportunity and achieved her goal earlier than expected.
She didn’t have to fill an entire school year, and no matter how late it was, she thought that as long as this semester was over, she would go back.
“…Sister.”
At that time, Lilia, who had been quietly watching her conversation, called out to Yuria.
“Yes, Lilia.”
Yuria looked at her sister with a smile.
It was still sad that she always showed a sharp attitude, but she confirmed that she still loved her as an older sister by cheering on her during matches and congratulating her at a victory party like this. Her tone was softer.
“Is it because you want to be alone with Theo?”
At Lillia’s point, Yuria unknowingly flinched.
She would be lying if she didn’t have that idea.
And at that time, Theodore, who was still, said.
“Yuria, it’s getting late at night. Let’s quickly report to His Majesty.”
Yuria knew that Theodore’s words were her excuse to get rid of herself.
At Lilia’s point, the Duchess of Arsein was admonishing, “Lilia. You mustn’t make fun of her sister.” However, Yuria, who felt a little embarrassed to be here, was grateful for Theodore’s help.
“Yes.”
She took Theodore’s hand and moved along.
On the way, Ashley could be seen letting out her laughter slightly to see if this situation was amusing, but Yuria’s vision changed to the inside of Theodore’s inn before she knew it.
“Thanks for your help, Theo.”
“Lillia plays a lot of pretty naughty pranks.”
“…Because age is me.”
Yuria said with a slightly bitter smile.
Theodore nodded lightly at her words and put his hand on her shoulder.
“What do you want to do? While you take a break, shall I report to His Majesty alone?”
“No. Let’s do it together.”
Yuria lightly shook her head at Theodore’s words.
She came out under the pretext of reporting to the Emperor. Wouldn’t it be like lying to her family and friends by leaving her report to him?
Theodore smiled slightly at her words, which still had a naive side in this area.
“Then let’s do that. But before that, Yuria, there’s something I want to ask you.”
“If you want to ask… is it about the return date?”
“Yeah. I said I’d think about it, but I want to hear your honest feelings. Do you want to go back or do you want to stay here a little longer?”
At Theodore’s question, Yuria thought for a moment.
‘Is there anything I want to do by staying here?’
Her own goal was to make her reputation achievable.
Even in a confrontation with Minst Academy’s strongest player, Frederic, she fought fair and square and won.
She was very happy and proud that she had proven herself by winning her championship through her own efforts.
But that’s why her goal, which she had originally set for a long time to invest a year, ended too early.
It wasn’t Theodore’s intention, it was just that Britannia’s intentions were twisted and somehow she achieved her goal early.
‘I don’t think it would be bad to stay here and be challenged.’
Once she was a winner. She
She also proved that she is more skilled than anyone else at Minst Academy, who even defeated Frederick.
She is a second-year international student at Jeha Academy. This achievement she achieved was so great that everyone in the audience cheered and applauded her from the standpoint of her Arkan Empire.
On the other hand, from Minst Academy’s point of view, losing even Frederick, the strongest player in the academy, to her second year international student was a disgraceful result, even if she was the fiancée of the chosen one.
It’s a wall that can’t be overcome at all, and Frederick also showed his skills that made Yuria struggle, so there wasn’t a big difference.
‘Perhaps he thinks he can make up for it.’
Therefore, there must have been quite a few students who challenged Yuria.
Of course, she had no intention of catching up, so she said that YuRia would continue to become stronger, but she couldn’t say for sure if that was enough reason to stay.
Theodore, who was watching YuRia worrying about her, gave her a proposal.
“Then, how about something like this? We’ll go back to Arkhan Empire next weekend.”
“Is it next weekend?”
“Yeah. I don’t know if I change my mind then, but let’s plan that for now. I can handle the moving issue myself.”
“Yes, thank you.”
When Yuria thanked her, Theodore put his hand on her cheek and gently caressed her.
And Yuria, who was facing him, remembered that after she returned to the Arkan Empire, as long as she was staying at the Duke of Arsene again, it would be impossible for her to covet each other all night with Theodore like here.
She probably didn’t want to go back soon because she didn’t like it herself.
Since Lilia knew that, it was clear that she said it on purpose.
‘But… I’ll have to go back.’
Even if she went back, she would have to somehow find time to be with Theodore.
Day and afternoon would be spent training in the same place.
And at night, whether Theodore came into his room at night, or he himself followed him to another place, there would be several ways to think of his teleportation abilities.
After reading so much regret, Yuria realized that she wasn’t even thinking about the option of not having sex.
“Then I’ll have to report it to His Majesty soon.”
It’s late at night, but I had to report by today.
Because of the emperor’s personality, it wouldn’t be a problem if he didn’t post a detailed report right away, and above all, it would be better to report it at a late hour like now.
‘I’m sure you already know the basics.’
Yuria also thought that the emperor would have already made a basic report, and that the report he is presently presenting would be just a formality.
Eventually, Theodore magically displayed an image and knelt down in front of him.
Yuria also politely knelt down next to Theodore.
[hahahahaha, you finally contacted me! Sky Road Young master! And Princess Arsene!]
As soon as the image of the emperor appeared on their faces, the two immediately greeted each other.
“Meet Your Majesty, Emperor of the Arkhan Empire, Theodore Skylord, the heir to the Duke of Skylord.”
“Meet His Majesty the Emperor of the Arkan Empire, Yuria Arsane, the Grand Duchess of the Arsene Duchy.”
The emperor applauded the two of them for bowing so politely.
[Ha ha ha! Heard the story! Princess Arsane, congratulations on winning! Very relieved! Ha ha ha!]
The emperor’s voice sounded very happy.
He was overjoyed at the fact that Yuria had won her championship, and as expected from Yuria, she already knew this from her report.
[The principal of Jayha Academy has a lot to say to Princess Arsane. I mean, she’s in the mood to give me a scholarship.]
Yuria thought that even if she went back, she wouldn’t be quiet.
