The Grand Duchess Is Defeated Again Today

Chapter 21

Princess Loves Banged

The gymnasium inside the Duke’s Palace of Valencia.

Like the duke’s gymnasium, all kinds of tools and weapons to help with training were gathered.

When you see the clean sand that rustles and stimulates the soles of your feet. I could tell without even having to check how much maintenance was done on a regular basis.

As such, it is usually used by knights of the duke family.

“Training is up to this point.”

“All right!”

It was a space still used by the knights today.

“Isn’t that Miss Rebecca?”

“Besides… Looks like Confucius Albert.”

Today, two special guests, whom the knights know very well, came to the theater.

I honestly thought it was a joke.

When I first heard Rebecca tell me to get out of the gym right away.

I thought it was just a slurred word because I was just making fun of it. As usual, Rebecca often made the expression that she wanted to hold me tight.

I just thought it was worse than usual.

– Go out for a second. I’m going to change clothes.

However, the princess who tells me to leave the room because I have to change clothes. I could slowly feel that something was wrong.

“What are you doing? Stand there blankly.”

When I saw Rebecca coming out of the room after a while, changing into her full suit. I had to deeply feel that the princess’s words to win a match were not joking.

As Rebecca grabbed my hand and dragged me along, my body had arrived at the dance hall of the Duke of Valencia.

“········Hello. Hans.”

I could find myself saluting Hans, one of the knights of the Duke’s family.

I had visited the duke’s family a lot over the past three years, so I could only memorize the names of the knights I saw often, and the knights of the duke family often knew about me, who is the young lady’s fiancée and always visits to see their young lady.

Actually, I have asked about swordsmanship several times.

“Aren’t you Prince Albert? What’s going on here…”

Hans was resting, sweating profusely, as if he had just finished hard training. He greeted me warmly as I entered the dance hall.

In a way, I am a person who is no different from an uninvited guest here, but I was very grateful for Hans’s warm welcome.

“····.”

Unfortunately, I wasn’t in the right mood to answer that question with a smile.

“No, why do you look like that?”

So instead of answering the question, I pointed my finger somewhere.

“···········Oh. Even if you don’t tell me, I will understand.”

Hans seemed to notice immediately what had happened when he saw Rebecca warming up where I was pointing.

“Are you finally going to have a fight with the princess?”

When you see me talking to you in a voice that rises like that.

“······ha.”

A sigh came out.

Was this how Rebecca, who was usually teased by me, felt?

“So, didn’t I usually advise you to stop teasing the girl?”

I know. I’ll play around with it in moderation.

I didn’t know you were going to declare a fight so suddenly.

“Actually, I was expecting a little. Seeing Confucius making fun of a young lady made me feel angry.”

“····.”

After hearing what he said, my expression became even more miserable, and then Hans offered a word of comfort as if telling him to be strong.

“Don’t worry too much. Who knows if Confucius will win.”

“······really?”

“Of course. I’m on the side of Confucius Albert. And there will be many knights who secretly support Confucius.”

“What if I had to bet money?”

“I’ll bet on your side.”

Of course, my expression wrinkled even more the moment I realized that the comfort was a high degree of joking.

“I hope you’ll be ruined someday, Hans.”

“I also wish Confucius would be beaten by the young lady.”

“I hope the bank where you put your money goes bankrupt.”

“I hope that Confucius will also be beaten by the young lady and break a bone.”

As Hans and I were talking to each other for a while, Rebecca, who seemed to have finished stretching, slowly approached me.

Rebecca had her red hair tied in a ponytail, which she had usually tied in two, because she thought that it might get in the way.

No matter how hard he stretched, he had not even started dalian yet, but a drop or two of sweat was already dripping down.

and.

‘·······Why are you so pretty?’

For some reason, my heart raced so fast when I saw Rebecca like that.

Obviously, that’s not my lovely fiancée, I’m sure she’ll be like a grim reaper trying to beat me down soon.

“It seems that the young lady has made up her mind today… Don’t you think she’s beautiful that way?”

“····.”

“… Confucius-sama is also seriously ill.”

I didn’t want to admit it though. Hans was right. Even in this kind of situation, how serious is it that your heart is pounding?

Anyway, the princess trudged closer to me like a goddess or a god of death.

“Take it.”

“····.”

In both hands, he was holding a wooden sword for fighting.

Once I got it, I thought I couldn’t get it back. As soon as you receive it, it is certain that you will fight against Rebecca.

“Do you really need to do this?”

So I thought this was my last chance, and I tried to express my dislike with a sad and pitiful expression as much as possible.

“Yes. I’ve been training so hard that you don’t come to visit me. I’ll have to try it once.”

“····.”

there was no fuss

Perhaps the expression of being too young is an expression made for a moment like this.

There was literally no fuss.

In the end, the fight between me and Rebecca started crying like that and eating mustard.

“Do you think Miss Rebecca was very angry?”

“Isn’t Prince Albert going to die today?”

“Even so, I’m going to kill you, even though I’m your fiancée.”

As you can tell just by listening to the gossip of the knights. This was not a confrontation, but a one-sided beating or assault.

Of course, of course, it was me who was beaten.

***

puck-! Puff-!

It hurt.

Every time Rebecca’s wooden sword hit me, I felt so much pain that I doubted whether the sword I was using was a wooden sword.

“I heard that you practiced hard for a week or a day. Is this all you need?”

“····.”

Even by the ear, the princess’s selling was being hit by a direct hit. I had a complete understanding of what it meant to be distracted.

puck-!

“Prince Albert! Be strong!”

Maybe I was pitiful for being beaten up, the duke knights cheered me on.

Hearing those voices, he somehow aimed for an opportunity to counterattack.

“It’s slow.”

Rebecca smiled sadly, lightly dodging my counterattack, and then slashed my head with a wooden sword.

puck-!

“It’s only this slow. I can’t even call it a prosecutor.”

“····.”

“If that’s the case, you just came.”

Hearing Rebecca’s accusations from the pain from the skull one after another, the desire to win really ignited.

There were things in the world that were impossible.

Am I being beaten because I want to be beaten for being me?

Naturally, I wanted to defend Rebecca’s attack and counterattack like a fantasy novel.

Like a common martial arts novel, ‘Hwamu eleventh day’, ‘This is the last time.’ I wanted to fight like a novel character while saying these lines.

‘········ What if it doesn’t work?’

But the only place I possessed is a fantasy novel. Because I wasn’t a character in a fantasy novel.

He was just being beaten by Rebecca with a wooden sword.

“·······Lady, I have a good idea.”

Unable to see the scene of this horrific violence, one of the Duke’s knights spoke to Rebecca, who was beating me mercilessly.

“The difference between the level of the young lady and the master is so great that there is no meaning in competing, so why don’t you try a bet?”

“······betting?”

Rebecca’s eyes immediately turn round at the word bet.

And I could definitely feel it when I saw it.

‘······ Are still in storage.’

That the princess still holds the last time she lost a chess bet to me and kissed the cheek.

I wanted to shout out that I can’t do that right now, but my mouth couldn’t move freely because I was hit so many times with my wooden sword.

The article who voiced the proposal to the princess continued to talk about betting without knowing my heart.

“Yes. Confucius wins if Prince Albert can touch the young lady with his wooden sword. Conversely, if Prince Albert can touch the young lady, the young lady wins. How about proceeding with a bet like this?”

“Five…”

Rebecca exclaimed as if it was a pretty good opinion.

Even that admiring reaction came to my pride as a scratch.

To think that such an offer is okay means that you are confident that you will never be attacked by me.

But it was already proven fact that I couldn’t even touch the princess’s hair in Dalian.

No matter how self-deprecating it was, he couldn’t resist.

“Good. We do that.”

Do you have any complaints? Rebecca looking at me with that expression.

“I don’t like…”

Even now, I was full of dissatisfaction, so I tried to reject it.

“You said you don’t like it? Then we’ll continue the match.”

“·······I am good.”
