The Engagement Was Broken Off and I Became a Munchkin

chapter 19



Episode 19 Obviously Wrong (6)

* * *

Wheeaeaeek-.

A middle-aged man in a light sweatshirt.

With a mustache, he lightly demonstrated swordsmanship.

Swords were embroidered in a mess in the air.

Wheeaeaeek-.

His skills are at the level of a first-class knight.

The skills of Legion’s professors who teach real combat are generally that level.

Considering that there are not that many first-class knights throughout the empire, the level of Legion is very high.

‘As expected. It’s Legion.’

Louis I nodded inwardly at his instructor’s skills.

Even though the movements seem simple at first glance, each one contains a subtle trick.

He shows each movement individually and ends his class with one last swordsmanship.

“This is the end of what the instructor will tell you today. The rest of the time is free to practice.”

Class duration is 120 minutes.

And I, Professor Herpis, was famous for giving self-training to the cadets after a 30-minute demonstration.

It was his policy that it was more efficient to give cadets enough time to enter the Legion to give them time for self-training rather than teaching the basics for a long time.

A popular professor.

His 30 minutes were not worthless, and he guaranteed free time.

Ruina reviewed the moves he taught her.

Weeaeaeaeaeae-.

What I felt when I swung my sword. It seemed like a simple movement, but when I tried it myself, it was more difficult than I thought.

After swinging the sword a few times, my eyes go to the two men and women who are joking from one side.

“Wow! Eugene is great. How do you know everything in one go?”

“I just did the exact same thing.”

“I’m not good at it… Will Eugene teach me?”

A commoner girl who quarreled with her former fiancé Eugene and me.

… To her displeasure, she memorized the name. She said her name was Rossi.

‘… That’s flirting.’

Eugene is also Eugene, but I really don’t like her.

His first impression of her was the worst.

Because at her entrance ceremony, she rudely slammed me.

She definitely has a status, and even though she respects herself, she squeaks with casual words.

For a moment, Rossi’s gaze returned to Ruina.

Then she curls the corners of her eyes and smiles.

“… !”

It was difficult not to know.

That’s right to laugh at.

She was a cheeky b*tch who cleverly laughed at herself when she met Yujin while walking around the campus the other day.

This time, she has a similar expression.

‘f*ck. That… !’

What you’re doing is really like a fox.

Eujin, who fell for the flirtation of that foxy woman, is also not happy.

No, how long has it been since she broke up with her?

In fact, even though there were several unofficial marriage talks, she thought of rejecting all of them for at least a year.

Isn’t that polite to the other person?

‘… I don’t want to see you meet women as if you’ve waited.’

It’s not like I’m in a relationship to interfere with him now, but she couldn’t help but hate it.

… Of course. He also had some unsightly issues left to check.

Yujin’s actual skills.

It feels like Her Highness is secretly hiding it from the academy and implicitly guaranteeing it, but you only know for sure.

With that thought, Ruina approached the place where Eugene and Rossi were.

And then I applied for Dalian.

His attitude was not nice.

“Ruina. You advised me too Don’t take the academy entrance exam. This time, on the contrary, I advise. If you apply for sparring with me right now, you’ll feel quite humiliated, don’t you mind?”

I was quite upset, but I understood.

This is the yard where the marriage broke up. It would be strange if good feelings remained.

Even so, the pretentiousness is severe.

It is arrogance to be sure of victory before you even start.

Besides, since he hadn’t lost to Eugene in over 5 years, the idea that he was the kind of person who always lost to himself was stronger than the fact that he was the top player.

Yes. If everything is sparring, the results will come out.

I decided to save my words.

Just.

Until I heard the nonsense of a commoner woman who had been laughing and staring at me since before.

“That. If you don’t have the skills or the horns, you just talk a lot. Whew. I’m dying of laughter thinking that Dalian itself will come true. A kid who doesn’t even know how good it is for me.”

Pak-.

I mumbled as if I was talking to myself, but that made me feel rather bad.

Since a while ago, it was quite annoying to see him glaring at me or making a mockery of raising only one corner of his mouth, but I tried my best to ignore it.

But isn’t this going too far?

Obviously identity exists, so what on earth do you believe in and act like that?

Are you mistaken that I’m better than you because the admissions rank is 7th?

Thinking that way made me very uncomfortable.

“You wouldn’t even be able to beat me in the first place, so I don’t know what kind of confidence you have to fool around.”

“Catch up? Under… I’m really dumbfounded. Hey. Follow me!”

“Hey. Didn’t you want to fight with me?”

“You just wait. I will give you a true education for this cheeky girl and expose your bottom line!”

I felt something in my head suddenly cut off, and before I knew it, I was standing facing the cocky Jinnyeon in the arena.

It was really hard for a b*tch who did things like a fox to stare at me fiercely.

‘… An ignorant girl who knows that her entrance grade is only high.’

Ruina also knew that Rossi entered the school in 7th place.

I myself was in 11th place.

However, in terms of skills, he was convinced that he had the upper hand.

I wasn’t in good shape during the entrance exam.

Furthermore, I made a fatal mistake.

If such bad luck hadn’t happened, I’d have been lower than Her Highness, but at least… Third place would have been

At this point, I was thinking of letting everyone know.

The fact that rankings do not necessarily indicate skill.

In the end, he intended to get the vulgar Rossy to kneel down and apologize.

‘After that, I’ll check Eugene’s skills.’

Chin—-. Tak-. Tak-.

As the sparring swords collided several times, Ruina was convinced that I had the upper hand.

After a fierce battle, the two of them separated for a while.

Rosh switched from defense to offense as if he had decided that he would be pushed back at this rate.

‘Relax a bit. At the right timing, I will subdue it at once.’

Thaien’s swordsmanship has a deep foundation, and its momentum does not die even in long-term battles.

In order to win more reliably, Ruina defended and conserved her strength.

And when Rossi’s sword was lowered from top to bottom.

Awkward—.

Her body trembled with a life she had never felt before.

Instinctively, she turned her head toward it.

There is Eugene watching himself.

“… !”

He was the source of life.

It was a murder that made me feel the malice of wanting to tear you to pieces.

A feeling of dread overtook him, and chicken meat came up on his arm.

I could guess what my expression would look like when I looked at him.

Horror. Also, embarrassing.

What a terrifying moment it was, it felt like time was passing slowly.

In that moment, the shape of his mouth created something.

[Pause. Dance]

Tap-.

At that moment, I couldn’t move my arms like a lie,

He allowed a vital point in Rossi’s attack that followed.

Baaa

The girl who hit me had a fishy smile.

It was as if he looked down on himself,

‘… You b*tch!’

Isn’t it a foul to intervene like that during sparring?

Ruina’s thoughts were not connected.

She lost her mind by the end of it.

I forgot.

When she came to her senses again, she was an unfamiliar ceiling. She

She looked around.

White bed. There was no one.

It didn’t take long for her to recall the events that had taken place before she passed out, which put her under extreme stress.

“… f*ck.”

Her inner thoughts flowed.

… Does not matter.

There was no one in the infirmary anyway.

I recalled her memories.

I had sparred with Rossi, and I was taking the upper hand.

In the meantime, she felt alive.

And when she turned around in the direction she felt alive, Eugene was there.

After that, his body even stopped depending on the shape of his mouth.

She remembered clearly.

‘Is it a coincidence?’

No, that couldn’t have been a coincidence.

From the circumstances, Eugene clearly stopped me.

I definitely felt it then.

That a handful of Eugene’s magical power overpowered him.

Louis I remembered Eugene from her childhood.

When he was called a genius.

When I think of my childhood, the first thing I remember is the image of Eugene watching my practice with arms crossed.

“Come here, Ruina. I will teach you.”

“I will definitely be the right person for you.”

“A. Where else is there other than hanging out?”

Ruina was very interested in becoming stronger.

No matter what, Ty Yen’s first song was ‘competentism’.

She received a lot of advice from Eugene when she was young.

It is said that being talented is easy to become arrogant, but he did not.

The son of a talented aristocrat always said that relationships with women are complicated, but that wasn’t the case.

She loved swords like her, and was better at it.

She loved and respected her so much.

I was like that until I was fourteen.

From that point on, Eugene began to degenerate strangely.

He’s still trying and giving me consistent advice, but the most important thing has changed.

Skills.

Only one thing was missing.

It seemed that he was gradually regressing at the age of 14, but when he turned 18, Eugene was no longer his opponent.

The disappointment I felt then was indescribable.

So she thought.

The Eugene I loved is dead.

In front of her eyes, this man is the kind of existence that just puts on her Eugene’s shell.

That’s natural.

Because the most important skill is missing.

He waited for more than a year even after he found out that his skills were terrible.

I wondered if he would come back.

But that year was terrible.

The memories of him teaching her swords from the age of four to fourteen were only overwritten with not-so-good memories.

I would rather not have shown any dissatisfaction with him if he had excellent skills even if he had a promiscuous relationship with a woman and treated himself harshly.

Once during sparring, Eugene said that.

“Ruina. I think it would have been better to cut a little deeper this time?”

“… Yes. But you should have moved faster there.”

It was such a ‘intelligence’ to fix the swordsmanship movement that had been hardened for a long time.

I felt that Eugene’s words were no longer advice, but just ‘intellectual quality’.

Because my skill is better than that.

“That’s a bad habit. Louisa. Your ability to stagnate is related to that.”

“… I know. Stop giving useless advice.”

It was a car that I thought it was because I got along with him who was not good at stagnating skills, so I felt quite bad.

So I got angry for the first time that day and went home without looking back.

Since then, I have become more and more suspicious.

Do you really have to live with a man who is no better than you for the rest of your life?

Why should I?

No matter how much affection and effort Eugene gave me when he was young, aren’t his skills rubbish now?

So I have to break off the engagement with him.

And I put those thoughts into action.

That was all.

As it is natural to dispose of old and broken things,

Because there was no law saying that it shouldn’t be applied to human relationships.

So we broke off the engagement.

I kept those feelings in me and burst them out.

Since Eugene was no longer the right man for him, he gave notice of the breakup.

‘Anyone would have done it like me.’

That’s what he thought then.
