The Grand Duchess Is Defeated Again Today

Chapter 37

The princess holds her breath.

“·······Princess Princess.”

If it’s my mourning, even in my mournful calling.

“····.”

The princess didn’t move at all.

His body was still trembling, but he never looked back.

As if he didn’t want to hear any excuses from you.

As if nothing more to say to you.

And Rebecca’s face.

It made me cross a lot of thoughts.

I thought I shouldn’t have answered the saint.

Even though I would rather be branded as a madman with no manners by a saint, I thought that I should have ignored it and passed on it.

If you can’t take responsibility for the happiness of your fiancee, you want the happiness of other characters?

It was a huge arrogance.

The most important thing would be Rebecca and my happiness.

The most important thing is that I flirted without even paying attention.

“·······Princess Princess.”

“····.”

Rebecca still didn’t move.

But, as I said before, there was nothing I couldn’t do.

bum- bum-

I slowly walked towards Rebecca, one step at a time.

The only sounds I could hear were the crowing of grasshoppers in the garden and the sound of me carefully stepping on the grass.

When compared to the first time, the distance between me and the princess was reduced to about half.

Rebecca’s tightly closed mouth opened.

“Do not come closer.”

A voice that refuses to approach me like I was a while ago.

I’ve already heard that word quite a few times.

The first time you feed Rebecca food, the first time you feed Rebecca her homemade cake.

When he was bound by the Duchess’s magic and forced to spend the night in Rebecca’s room.

I’ve heard that sentence countless times.

If it’s different from before, it’s probably that the princess spoke while looking straight at me before.

The princess now speaks coldly without even paying attention to me.

bum- bum-

That didn’t stop me from walking though.

“I told you not to come near me.”

Even if the princess’s cold warning keeps coming.

bum- bum-

I slowly and little by little approached Rebecca.

Our distance kept getting narrower.

When the distance between the princess and me was less than three steps away.

“I told you not to come near me!”

Rebecca turned and faced me.

With tears dangling from the red shining eyes that I always thought was pretty.

how much if

What the princess really yelled at me.

Even when we first met, he apologized and yelled at me.

Both me and Rebecca knew there was a huge difference in the sound diameter between then and now.

Unlike the apology at the time, which was full of shame and shame.

Now it was stained with a stain of betrayal.

“Why do you keep coming closer?”

There was no princess here who always used hateful respect for me.

“I told you not to come… Why do you keep coming closer…”

Only an 18-year-old girl is crying with a feeling of betrayal.

was looking at me here.

Readers of [The Prince Raises the Sword] had this to say about the character Rebecca Valencia.

‘A cold-blooded Munchkin princess without blood or tears.’

However, that was wrong.

Rebecca was only an 18-year-old girl.

She was a girl, only because of the duke’s succession class she had received since childhood and her growing up a little more precious.

He blushed at his fiancé’s embarrassing words, and shed tears at his fiancé’s betrayal.

such a girl.

“Are you going to ask me to listen to you again with that stupid wish?”

“····.”

“Isn’t it really boring? What am I, a machine that makes you angry when you make a wish?”

“·······Princess Princess.”

“I am a person who knows how to be sad and how to be angry…”

knew

Rebecca is just one girl.

I never once thought of Rebecca as a machine that relieves anger by making a wish.

However, what I’ve done so far.

It was actions that could only be misunderstood as a public princess who was in a position to suffer if it was not supported by sufficient explanations.

Because there has never been a time when a sufficient explanation has never been supported.

In return, all she had to do was watch the present princess cry.

“He said I was the prettiest in the world.”

“····.”

“I want to monopolize all my parts so that I want to save them as photos.”

“····.”

“…and only my fiancée.”

But… why… what’s the difference between words and actions?

Rebecca’s eyes, brighter than usual due to tears, were talking to me.

I’ve never really been honest with Rebecca.

To be precise, the truth was revealed, but it would be correct to say that the truth was never properly conveyed to the princess.

Rebecca must have always thought that ‘I wanted to make fun of myself’ when I said embarrassing things.

But it wasn’t.

The shameful and embarrassing words I’ve said to Rebecca until now.

They were all full of sincerity.

It’s just that I couldn’t tell the truth directly because of the cowardly thought that if the princess found out about my heart, I wouldn’t know how to live.

There was never a time when it wasn’t sincere.

so that.

“Are all those words a lie?”

“·······Princess Princess.”

“Are all the words you’ve ever said to me?”

“Princess.”

“Don’t just call me a princess, say something…”

“Rebecca!”

“····.”

Perhaps now is the time to put away the cowardly excuses.

From now on, I can’t live with my truth hidden behind a mask.

“······Hibeum.”

Rebecca hiccups while the words she said were not expected to suddenly scream.

would have been confused

Until now, there has never been a time when a princess was called only by her first name without adding the word ‘princess’.

Because I have always called Rebecca with respect and respect.

but.

“Listen to me, please.”

It didn’t matter now.

Can you convey these thoughts that I have in my head to the princess? This was important.

Nothing else mattered at all.

“······Sorry.”

“····.”

“The fact that another woman said you were pretty even when you were in front of me, that I left you alone and went to the garden at will. I talked with another woman other than you.”

“····.”

“I’m sorry for everything. It’s all my negligence and my fault, with no excuses.”

“·······Whew.”

Did my earnest apology reach the princess a little?

Rebecca’s tears, which had stopped for a moment, were about to flow down again.

“But, I want you to know this.”

I didn’t want to see more of the princess’s mourning tears.

The tears I saw were enough tears of joy.

“Of all the things I’ve said to you so far, the only lies I’ve told you have been demeaning you.”

“····.”

“Even those derogatory words were just because your reaction was funny and cute, but there was no sincerity in them.”

“······then.”

“The words that you said you were pretty, the words that you said you were beautiful, the words that you want to monopolize every part of you. And the words that I am the only fiancée of you, even the words that I love you.”

“····.”

“Everyone was sincere.”

Even if the princess does not forgive me. I really wanted you to know this.

Forgiveness is a legitimate right of a victim, but telling the truth is something anyone can do.

Just the whole sincerity of what I was thinking about.

I just had to tell Rebecca.

After that, it’s up to the princess.

It wasn’t something I could fix.

how much has passed

Hearing my sincere words, Rebecca stared blankly at me for a long time.

For a long time, I hoped that I too would not avoid the gaze of such a princess and face each other.

“······really?”

Finally, Rebecca spoke carefully.

An expression of doubt as to whether he can trust you.

“Everyone… were you serious?”

A question-type expression that asks if the words you’ve said so far are really true.

The princess threw a small question mark to me as if it was her last chance.

“······of course.”

I wasn’t stupid enough to kick my last chance.

“·······················“

Warak-

Rebecca cried and hugged me.

“I… how… anxious…”

“sorry.”

“Do you know what you thought when you saw the girl you said you were pretty… alone?”

“Sorry, Rebecca.”

“Ahhh-“

She is a princess who usually only looks infinitely large, hidden by the setting of Munchkin.

Being held in my arms like this made me feel smaller than anyone else in the world.

The thought of making such a little girl sad made me feel even more guilty.

He vowed not to do this in the future, and vowed to always make the princess happy.

I hugged Rebecca even more.

I hope we can hold each other like that for a long time.

Gradually, the princess’s power is much stronger than I thought, and when I start to feel sick.

Sum 🤩

Goosebumps sprang up all over my body.

‘·······living?’

I’m a little weak now, but what I felt was definitely living.

“Ahh-“

Rebecca, still in my arms, doesn’t seem to have felt it because she was crying, but if it was the usual Rebecca Valencia, the life she would have felt for granted.

‘Why do the assassins have to visit the prince and the saint…’

I couldn’t understand why he came to us in the center of the garden instead of going to the prince and the saint as in the original story.

“Rebecca!”

There was no time to hesitate.

Because while I was in my thoughts for a moment, arrows were already flying towards Rebecca.

There was no time to pull the sword out of the scabbard.

Because the sword was not confiscated at the entrance of the imperial family, but was sealed carefully.

What can I do in this situation?

pooh-

“·····························Cuck.”

“…Alber?”

All I had to do was hide Rebecca’s body behind my back.
