The Engagement Was Broken Off and I Became a Munchkin

chapter 3



Episode 3 entrance exam will be destroyed (2)

* * *

A woman of outstanding beauty was sitting in a luxurious garden.

She has shiny golden hair and eyes of the same color.

Her appearance was clearly proving that she was an enemy of the Robero Empire.

Her identity is the Empire’s best talent who will enter Legion Academy this year at the top of her class.

A self-proclaimed genius swordsman.

Three Princesses of the Robert Empire,

Ezebet Florence.

“Hans. Did you know what I did?”

With her unexpectedly pleasant voice, she found my article.

“Of course. Her Highness the Princess.”

A man in his thirties, clad in her heavy armor, prostrated herself in front of her.

This brown-haired, ordinary-looking man was famous for his extraordinary skills, contrary to his ordinary appearance.

But it has to be.

The knight escorting the emperor’s daughter, who is one of the few in the empire, is so stupid.

“Report it.”

Ezebet asked solemnly in a voice that did not suit her at all.

“There are about five rival candidates for the princess who applied for knighthood this year. The first, as the princess knows, is Louis or Taiyan, the eldest daughter of a ducal family with high momentum in the empire.”

“Yes. I heard it. However, it is not enough to be the enemy of Princess Bourne.”

“Of course, I am just a candidate. Secondly… “

Hans’ tedious explanation continued.

He didn’t like this quaint report either, but he needed to please his superior.

“Finally… Eugene Taranhilt. He reached the level of an expert at the age of 14 and made his name known as an unparalleled genius.”

I hesitated whether or not to include the last person.

His genius was no longer revealed until the age of fourteen.

“Eugene Taranhilt has even heard of it. He was once good enough to be her rival. But isn’t that also a thing of the past? Besides, Tai Yan’s eldest daughter broke off the engagement to him?”

“Yes.”

“If those perverts broke off their marriage, there must be a reason. Wouldn’t he be far short of being a match for the original daughter?”

“I thought so too… “

Hans stretched out his words.

And usually, ironic content follows after such words.

Ezebet urged my escort knight.

“Don’t hesitate and tell me.”

“That is what I… I received some of the results of the entrance exam for the sake of the princess.”

Originally, the academy had a policy of not disclosing test-takers’ grades.

However, when it came to the position of the favored princess, he also leaked unimportant information.

Everywhere people live is such a law.

If he waited any longer, it seemed that Elizabeth would get angry, so Hans immediately got to the point.

“Eugene Taranhilt’s first practical performance was overwhelming. He scored an S rank in every metric.”

Hans was a little concerned about what I was saying.

He graduated from the academy with one of the best grades, and even Hans, who trained until he was over 30, wouldn’t be able to get an S rank in every metric.

“Wait a minute… Is that true?”

It was only then that Elizabeth’s gaze, which was looking around the garden, stopped at Hans.

It must have been such an unexpected news.

The first performance was called a test, but strictly speaking, it could be called a measurement.

The physicality and magical aptitude were measured with a measuring device devised by the Archmage, and since it was an evaluation managed with a huge budget, the probability of error was extremely low.

“It’s hard for me to believe, but… It is true.”

“… Unless there was some mistake, Eugene is a monster.”

If you get an S rank, it will be equivalent to the Imperial Knight Commander.

In other words, in terms of physical ability alone, it meant that he was infinitely close to the master.

Ezebet was rather willing.

Except for being compared to Eugene when she was very young, she had no one of her age to match her talent.

The existence of a rival will be a great lubricant to promote her development.

“Interesting. Eugene Taranhiltra… As expected, she doesn’t disappoint her original daughter.”

“… Don’t expect too much. He hadn’t done well in a swordsmanship contest since he was fourteen.”

“Isn’t that the same for the original girl? She probably didn’t feel the need to go to the children’s party.”

“… It is.”

Hans was a little worried.

What if the academy made a measurement mistake?

What if he or he made an error in the process of obtaining information?

After making her look forward to her third princess for no reason, when she was disappointed, the only person who had to deal with her storm after that was herself.

“Looking forward to it…. Because her original daughter needed the existence of her rival.”

“Please don’t expect too much… “

That’s also true, because Elizabeth, the greatest genius of the empire, favored by the emperor, had a very tenacious personality.

Three days have passed since the island was uploaded to Floria.

In the meantime, nothing special happened.

He said that the administrative office would provide lodging, but as a country boy who had moved to the capital, he wanted to roam around freely, so he looked around.

If you have felt the past three days…

Is the capital of an empire a city worthy of being called the capital?

The estate of the Taranhilts, where I spent 20 years, had a slightly medieval feel, but the institution had nothing like that at all.

There were some old castles and buildings with a classical feel, but a sense of traditional and sophisticated coexisted, and there were quite a few tall buildings like modern buildings on Earth.

For example, I can pick something like the Demon Tower.

Anyway.

As I looked around the system, three days quickly passed, and it was the day of the entrance exam.

When we arrived at the announced location, numerous cadets were already filling the square.

Woong-woong–.

With over a thousand cadets chatting about each other without saying anything, it’s as noisy as the Dottegi Market.

Strange kids stand out from time to time.

“hahahahaha! This will be the stage to prove my greatness.”

A strange guy who is proud.

“Whoops. Magic is science.”

Something darkly strange.

“Hello, I’m Rossi. Nice to meet you.”

Finally speaking from the seat next to me… Hmm.

Isn’t this kind of weird?

You can talk to me.

A girl with brown hair and auburn eyes.

Since he is here, he must be an examinee who took the entrance exam.

“Eugene. Eugene Taranhilt.”

“Wow. Are you a noble?”

“So you are”

“Oh… ! Could it be that I, a commoner, was offended by talking to you?”

What do you mean?

I’ve never shown anything like that before.

“No.”

“Oh? Really? Teacher Sullevan said nobles are arrogant and authoritative. Lol… So in case you did this… “

Looking at the way she blurts out her words, she is a girl with aegyo instinctively.

Usually, these kids tended to take advantage of their pretty looks and eat their social life raw.

As a close example… My half-brother.

‘… Julia tends to be like that.’

But for Yulia, she can tolerate that.

The reason for this is because the adjective “Good” Is attached to the front.

“You look very pretty…. Is it because you are noble?”

“… It’s home power. And being pretty is not a compliment to a man.”

“Sorry sorry. All my friends love it, so I didn’t know!”

He is a talkative guy.

And to say ‘pretty-looking’ makes me feel bad.

I didn’t want to hear that, so I grew up considerably through swordsmanship training.

‘I should ignore it.’

I quietly closed my eyes. No, I tried to close my eyes.

Until a very familiar face caught my eye.

That’s it.

The familiar face that met my gaze came to me.

A girl with silver hair and blue eyes.

She comes to talk to her.

“You… “

“You… “

Ruina Taiyan.

I knew you would come to the Legion Entrance Examination Center.

But it must have been a terrible bad relationship to meet here.

“My advice… You didn’t even hear it with the back of your ear.”

She said to me in her cold voice.

“Do I need to listen to you?”

“I was thinking of you.”

It was absurd that he said it because he thought of me.

Now that we’ve become strangers, isn’t it a little far-fetched to act like this?

“Don’t meddle, Ruina. I’m not your fiancé any more.”

“…… “

“A. I have nothing to say.”

“I am. Still, I was once engaged, but it was a favor I gave because I felt incompetent and felt embarrassed to see her crying miserably.”

What is it? You don’t talk dirty.

“You… “

“Why did you come here to throw your pride on the floor, Eugene?”

It was time to pour out something.

“That’s true. Your words are harsh. See you, see you.”

Rossi, who was sitting next to me, interrupts with his face red.

Looks pretty upset.

“Even from a third person’s point of view, the courtesy is at the level of eating, but are all nobles like this?”

“What? Are you talking to me now?”

“Then who else besides you?”

“It’s my job. Please do not interfere.”

The atmosphere becomes grim.

To be honest, it’s true that Rossi was abusive.

But since she took my side, I had no intention of pointing out her fault.

“You, Ruina. Stop meddling and go back. Because my skills will be known after seeing it.”
