Became an Academy Spearman

Chapter 53

53. Each other’s values

***

The talk about Dalian in the past was quite detailed.

Along the way, two people have expressed their curiosity and asked questions, so my story became longer by explaining in detail.

And more than I thought… The reaction of the two was quite hot.

“…ho. As expected, he sticks out the spear and in the end it was a draw.”

“Just because it’s predictable doesn’t it mean that you read Leonhard’s Sword!?”

I nodded awkwardly at the words of the two young people.

I didn’t create a draw with my pure talent or skill.

The moment I missed Leonhardt’s movement, I suddenly remembered Leonhard’s habit, and he just held out the spear as if instinctively predicted.

“I think I was really lucky. It was a match that would have been considered a defeat if the path was slightly off.”

When I think about it, it was as if that instinctive judgment had changed all of my future now.

As expected, I pushed out the spear and ended up in a draw, and my reputation went up endlessly.

The reason Dersen and Lecia came to me must be a strong reason.

“Like Lecia said, it was luck. Isn’t it Han Cheon-seong’s own act of sticking out the spear?”

“Right. Hanging out the spear is your own judgment and decision. I don’t think there is any need to dismiss it as luck and think of the result as defeat.”

Despite my words, the two of them gave me a pretty high evaluation.

Compared to the first time I caught him, I could feel that he was showing interest and interest more deeply.

“It’s embarrassing to hear you two say that.”

Obviously, the situation itself is not bad.

The atmosphere was more friendly than I thought.

I just wondered if this was really the case. Originally, these were the people who should be associated with Leonhardt.

Before Leonhard, I felt something strange that I first made a kite with them.

‘…are I thinking too deeply?’

Right now, the situation itself felt strange.

Originally, it seemed that the spotlight that should have been given to Leonhardt’s achievements shone on me.

As well as Luna, the heroine right now, Kali, who will be of great help in her growth.

It felt like all the beings that had to be entangled with Leonhard were all focused on me.

‘I can’t do that.’

Leonhardt was the ‘protagonist’ who had to go through all the hardships and hardships to come in this world.

I had to see him as the most important person in the world.

Only when Leonhard grows up properly will everything that unfolds unfold properly.

“…agar?”

Then, when I heard the voice, I shook my head blankly.

“Oh, sorry.”

“Until I have to apologize. You seem to be in a pretty deep thought… Is there anything to worry about?”

“That’s right. What were you thinking?”

I shook my head awkwardly.

“no. I think I made a mistake by falling into other thoughts without realizing it.”

“If that’s the case, that’s fine. It’s been a long story, so it can be difficult.”

“…If you have any concerns or difficulties, please tell me. If I can help you in return for your kindness, I want to help.”

…Lesia’s next words made me stop involuntarily.

ㅡIf I can help you in return for your kindness, I would like to help.

At first glance, Lecia’s words seem to reflect good intentions. It was also the word that originally came into contact with Leonhardt the most.

“Thank you for your words. It’s really ok. It was a great honor for me to meet these two today because it was a really good time.”

As he continued speaking calmly, he swallowed a sigh that was about to burst inside.

The thoughts seemed to go on and on. In fact, it’s really nothing at all.

Now, the causal relationship is clear in this situation.

My rating went up, and the imperial family only showed interest in me.

“is it. So today was a pretty good time. It was interesting to hear about spears.”

“Wait, oppa already… Are you going to break up with Han Cheon-seong?”

“It’s dinner time now. It’s time to part ways.”

“You can have dinner together. I think it would be okay to spend a little more time together… … ”

Dersen and Lecia continued to talk about me, and I was relieved to see them.

Their reaction was completely different from when they first met Leonhardt.

Dersen was clearly wary of Leonhard and tried to bring down him with all kinds of taunts, but the Dersen I encountered was not like that.

Even though he showed coldness as if to test me, now I could feel him looking at me with goodwill and good intentions.

‘okay. Because it’s very different… .’

Just because I was hanging out with them didn’t mean I lost interest in Leonhardt.

It’s just that I got to know them sooner. Yes, that was it.

“Hancheonseong. how are you Would you like to have dinner with us? If that’s the case, it’s okay to have dinner together.”

He immediately shook his head at Dersen’s calm voice.

It was enough just to receive such a favor right away.

“it’s okay. I’ll go back and eat dinner.”

“…is it. I’m really sorry. Lecia. Did you hear it too?”

“brother. Aren’t you forcing me to answer now? If you ask me that, who will answer that I will have dinner with you?”

“Lecia. What does that mean? What did I force you to do?”

When Dersen, who burst into laughter, met my eyes, he matched the rhythm as he wanted.

“Absolutely not forced. Because I just want to go back. It’s rather burdensome for me to be with you more than this.”

There was no sense of distance in Lecia’s attitude toward me to the extent that it was strange now.

And that would be very annoying for Dersen.

No matter how much Dersen favors me, Lecia is his top priority.

“……”

He smiled softly at the sight of Lecia who silently looked at me and shook his head slowly.

They look like they’re telling me that they’re going to eat dinner right now, but this ideal was really burdensome for me.

These are the characters who will soon be associated with Leonhardt, and I hoped they wouldn’t have high expectations of me.

Regardless of whether I’m confident or not, it’s too much for me to be associated with the royal family now.

“Then let me go back. It was meaningful to be able to spend time together like this.”

As he continued to say that, Dersen smiled broadly.

“okay. It was so nice to be able to talk with you too.”

When I said that he would leave, Dersen looked at me as if he really liked him, but I was rather comfortable with Dersen like that.

Between me and them, this was enough.

They like each other and don’t think badly of each other, but they’re not too close either.

“It was nice to be able to talk like this today too. Melua, let me see you off Hancheonseong.”

At Lecia’s reluctant reply, a woman called Melua slowly guided me through Lecia’s words.

…

shudder.

As she walked along with her maid, who was called her Melo, her gaze went to her involuntarily.

She is a woman with short blue hair, even darker than Glecia. Even the elegance of her maid labyrinth was felt.

‘Is it noble?’

When she says she is a maid, it is easy to think of her as a servant or a maid. A maid in this world was a noble at the very least.

She was much more respected by the imperial family, and as a maid, she had to come from a higher family than the count of the count. Because a person with a modest status cannot be with the imperial family or high-ranking aristocrats. Maybe it was natural.

Even the maid who listened to me from the bath service to the clothes service today must be noble.

That time when we walked without a word. Involuntarily, her and her gaze met.

“…”

In the strange silence, I wondered if there was anything to say to me.

“Do you have any questions for me?”

As if reading my thoughts, I asked in reverse, and I calmly shook my head.

“no. I guess I was staring too hard. Sorry.”

“…you don’t have to be sorry. I was wondering if you have anything to say.”

At the calm voice, I slowly turned my gaze away.

…let’s stop thinking.

Perhaps it was because he was constantly tense facing the royal family, he was mentally exhausted and didn’t want to think about it anymore.

***

The boudoir where nature and Melua left.

Lecia sighed heavily and narrowed her eyes.

“…brother.”

“why.”

Unlike when she was in nature, when she called Dersen sharply, Dersen was startled.

“Why are you doing this?”

“What did I do? She should have spent close to two hours with the agar castle.”

As Der Sen responded calmly and casually met Lecia and her gaze, Lecia snorted.

“It’s not worth breaking up with, isn’t it that your brother kicked you out? Like last time?”

“Lecia. Again, that must be a mistake. I didn’t put any pressure on it at all.”

“It’s not something I put pressure on. From my point of view, all I can see is that he gave me the attention to leave the seat.”

As Lecia continued to respond with her blunt attitude, Der Sen frowned sharply at her.

“I had no intention of doing that. Yeah, obviously agar was fine. There was nothing wrong with the way we talked and the way he treated us. But Lecia. Isn’t there a big difference between him and us that can’t be narrowed down? He has no reason to hang out with the agar castle.”

Even though Dersen continued speaking as if persuaded, Lecia was only frustrated.

‘…there’s no reason to hang out.’

My brother’s words really made my heart suffocate.

This world is changing.

It’s already been a long time. Although the Hwanggwon continued to be maintained, sticking to one’s status was a one-dimensional idea.

Among the common people, there were already countless people who made a name for themselves, and there were even more people who proved their worth more than their status with their characteristics and talents.

We hear the news every day about how dangerous the front is now.

In that sense, the cadet Han Cheon-seong was worth getting to know.

Although it was a common trait among commoners, it seemed that the potential for growth was limitless.

“brother. With that in mind, who the hell can hang out with us? How many people can get along on an equal footing with us as the royal family?”

“If I were to ask, it would be about the children of the duke and count families, and besides that, aren’t there other influential ‘axis of empire’ and high-ranking wizards? Considering the dignity we possess, the person we fit in with must also pay attention.”

Seeing my brother answering my words with a firmer expression on his face made me feel like a fool.

My brother was too obsessed with old ideas. Such a mind drone could never embrace more people.

It is just ridiculous that an older brother, who will later rise to the supreme position of emperor, looks at people with such narrow eyes.

‘Why don’t you know that your blood line doesn’t mean everything?’

Even if they belong to the same royal family, there are people who are incompetent, and there are people who waste their lives because they are culled.

The same was true for other nobles.

Everyone wants to be great, but the reality is that it isn’t.

“……”

He seemed to be getting really tired of seeing his brother’s stubborn gaze.

‘why.’

Does my brother not understand?

a few months ago. It seemed too bad to me that my brother became more important to bloodlines after his legendary trait was revealed.

“…brother. Let’s have dinner together tonight.”

“Lesia!”

“Then see you tomorrow.”

He spoke coldly and got up from his seat.

again.
