EWOWMAIBTYPF_Chapter_71

Ch. 071 CHAPTER 071“Why did 2a856315d7 you come so late!”
 
As I 8135e19236 ran to ab234fc724 the front 76e361b34e door with d4261c05cb the drink, 0a219bdca7 Allen made 0f2ace3fb8 a fuss. Normally she 06fd1d1ece would have 1311bb931c complained that 1aa14561c6 she was 7ec3f3369e losing her 0f01cb59e4 temper for 5b4c463732 no reason, 51e1c06ff4 but she 9ef877233c had no a0e9345878 choice but d6badbe106 to understand e7cf27b2c3 now. This is because 6e278b3d06 Lucio was standing a4633f609e behind Allen.
 
‘I must have b5748c755d been anxious to bff102aec9 see the Academy 9d1fc671a3 as soon as 72b386de97 possible.’
 
Moreover, Lucio, a celebrity 3a826c6892 from the Academy, is e45b9adb1d enough, as well as fd712e31c4 Allen and Diana, who 0ce68f55c1 have just arrived in 7b8ac1aed8 the capital. As the three members d3bb317963 of the Elad family 86ded47c1d were standing together, not 7a2e66edb1 only the academy students 23fc59d16d but also people on e8080180a3 the street were busy 4c0d011720 looking at them.
 
“Sorry. You’ve been 9b5a3d2fbf waiting a 0725d3d7f8 long time, 79ba72c3f9 right? Please eat adb83336d0 this first.”
 
I quickly bowed down 087ca27608 and covered Allen’s mouth 9d7c5063e8 with the drink.
 
“Delicious!”
 
I laughed at the 53ceaed6ba honest exclamation that immediately 532eac1f0d came out and glanced 8bc6309da1 at Lucio. Today he was 1ff6124204 wearing a blue 9cbdd1602c school uniform with 98ee955ae4 the academy’s emblem dd87522dd3 on the chest. He was a 36d4a331a9 sight I missed e5609d42c1 and thought I bd9439dc9c would never see d6425b96f8 again.
 
“You should try f49c607b1a it too, Mr. “It’s very refreshing.”
 
I offered a 219307eb98 drink to Lucio, c314c9392e who looked upset, 904479731c probably displeased with 9329530335 being a spectacle. Instead of ebfefc1c61 accepting the 749fa0e1df drink, Lucio 345e05f7f2 looked at e5c054e9cb me, then 7f710abac3 turned and 668de4f92c entered the a6f3c9dd8d academy. I looked at him 99dcd86ce1 with a blank expression 1a51d594f3 and muttered sullenly.
 
“This is really delicious…”
 
Of course, it 9ebf4631d9 may seem insignificant 495d0bff56 in Lucio’s eyes, cc8bd022f0 but it was d8c6b2b804 the first thing f2b3663cff I bought with 3ba5bf638c the money I ec89d2dc71 worked hard to c389dcc3e6 save when I 6dede3960c returned to the 5c12944ad5 past. It always bothered me cf3145312a how many times I ef34a7234f received alms in the de278b10e7 past and never got e14f746287 anything in return, so 3644cf1057 I wanted to repay 7142bd8215 them in some small eb7b779349 way. For some 2dc86329cb reason, I 830d9921df felt sad.
 
“I’ll eat it 0a7fa170ec all.”
 
At that time, 2a5ebdd55a Jack next to 87ee6aea85 me took a 42b3d5d7d4 drink from my 8add4be74f hand.
 
‘Still holding on 2a2cfbe487 to what I 613b4099b5 gave you.’
 
I smiled 2dc4d8cd09 brightly as 429322c809 I watched 9bcab7eefb Jack calmly 533c3e9c94 comforting me. And he said.
 
“If you 463bf2d6e6 eat all 17c4bb44f1 that, you’ll 06db73b2ab get a 73b0794f69 stomachache.”
 
* * *
 
The academy was 25b954468b already crowded with a466b669db numerous visitors. Although most 46ebad2f0c of the 3c9ecb98e2 students were df3c7325a3 families, there 413aeeb789 were also 5c72822193 quite a 905bceb045 few tourists ee6c149b74 who wanted b985db6a3e to take 13c57de36e a look 54ce73b9f5 inside the a2d3ecc214 tall walls. And it was 128e6ee4ff my first time 62307133e7 entering the academy, 0bb4685b7d so I couldn’t 0edf829ddf hide my excitement. The statue of the d109012084 first emperor standing tall d3b2f23f49 at the entrance, which ab8f5ecfff was always seen only 4c38199d60 from the outside, was 862e4dea1b even more majestic when a18df61fc9 seen up close, and 62635dd0d9 the wide streets and adfc5eacfb huge buildings that showed 01a1cc0b71 great care in landscaping fa58b117b7 also caught the eye. But what 1932b5bbbd excited me 20c45f0d37 more than 23ae976fba anything else 6951d3c501 was none 442bb817a1 other than 2b3d52f4ff the magic 85b2b26266 barrier that de8bfcbb8f surrounded the 51e218942c entire academy. Since it is f9e252dd43 a place full e9b6825634 of valuable research e6ac261390 materials for students b9b787b877 and professors who c790661858 are the future 0c4c3380b0 of the empire, 42fda0d43d it was natural a1552c1b4e that a protective 67a30bb37c spell was applied. However, considering af474e7ff5 that the 867b00c9ec Academy’s site ccbe4fda03 was extremely 67383f4b4b large, it 9e274fedfd was impossible 88fab9b4d2 to calculate 4736a99296 how much 6b34de0cab magic stones 87c40563f9 would be 144e3d57c1 poured into 27a4aa5efb maintaining this 78aa2265ff barrier.
 
“Sister, what 6b18d252be is this?”
 
At that time, Diana, f031749864 who was watching with ae4a70cc16 Allen, looked around with f7d85cbb7b her head excited and 054bbd4f97 asked me. I glanced c28daa44ad at the 73e7c64f42 pocket I 6e8d697584 was carrying 06e013d932 and said.
 
“It’s nothing d5146f3938 special, it’s 15b3f06cad like a 9917eb16cb bracelet or d4e3a6f738 necklace.”
 
In fact, I was f31f44ad58 a little late to 0622375352 buy this, so I 5dbd716b95 bowed down to Allen. After looking 82926d3375 at the 36576a73b9 fountain, I 93ae765c3a was waiting 1a6a5ef107 for my 531ea22f28 drink to 650aae5410 come out, 0a4e5bf9d5 and I 2c686b56a8 happened to c818468656 find a b95004cfe0 stall selling 4e8f770ca7 accessories right 7a1f676122 next to b8404c8a1e it. I was already looking 00218035f3 for just this kind bae24b7181 of item, so I d3179cbd38 thought it was right 18ec947789 and happily bought bracelets 2115142a25 and necklaces with lots a196fa94b2 of precious stones. In fact, a247968da5 it was 5e7acd1e3d so dull d87f04d52f in color 224ae6952a and rough-looking f13727c09f that it 6ec0aa58e5 was difficult 7cb1b6ab6a to call d36e5cdf91 it a 8acef1e190 gem, but 00e08c6e7d it was 6a56b10474 a gem, c58e45a4ea even though f1236c2517 it was 9a091f8ba0 the cheap dd299eaa52 type. I remembered Jack looking 3bcf092b03 at me with a 31808d9a2a puzzled look on his 1b849fb59a face as I swept ed61123656 up everything that was 9ae6b7b8ca lying around on the c768490117 stall, completely emptying out f6393b3a45 the salary pockets I 2154504ac9 had saved so far.
 
“What, this looks 697cae3df6 so cheap.”
 
At that time, c2816198d9 Allen looked at 02268fa230 a bracelet sticking 4356f13631 out of his a575f20881 pocket and frowned.
 
“I bought 7a4d41b429 a lot. Even if you fd566f24f5 buy just one, d059ffb810 buy something a 6495b27d3c little better.”
 
It was 1fb1f639cd a noble 4c0831e810 and rich 71c5d5b610 remark, but 9e41ed9546 I actually 582ae31157 agreed with 4d2ab78a6a it. But I couldn’t help 91efa5858e it.
 
“Right now, I’m trying 435073ee7a to compete with quantity 30fd8a4e90 rather than quality.”
 
When I said e529cc7d6c that, Allen seemed f755784b37 to think I 1cf247460e was a very 7d90ae7418 vain person, but 16d9adfadb this was something 668f5830e4 that could not 5dc01bd81d be helped.
 
‘This is all a54747d691 the basis for 85a422644b my business!’
 
He asked b0f69eebf9 as Allen 111957f802 shyly took bd34cea443 what was b631d46bdb in her f2caa3da3b hand.
 
“Did you 7d2b5e80dd like this?”
 
“…Yes. They like it.”
 
If I 5f9116d9ff said no, 876ec1483e I couldn’t 8b091b7046 explain why 26b942c6a7 I bought 323293c75e so much, ac5b6c91b0 so I b47876d97f nodded, feeling 17af9839df embarrassed. And he held f88b8a5a68 up the most 79cf59c767 brilliant-looking dog among ac41185746 the dogs to 42d726410e Diana, who was f9cb8eda4a watching with her b2eef152e9 eyes shining brightly.
 
“Miss, would 5193c36dbc you like f559d1d743 me to c978028527 do this 88a9126a62 for your 965a344dc7 wrist?”
 
“Huh? This is my 8e6dfa5886 sister’s…”
 
I really a7efc34928 loved Diana, 0dbe0343ac who shared dd44a9b28a everything she 87ab498c4c had with 2fedb902e0 me without 08f3a3a18e any sign b6bac2de11 of wasting 380a526bc4 it, but c8f56657c4 wasn’t greedy e09d5fbe0e for what 4028001ea8 was hers. I opened the ee97b7be40 loop of the d3a56921a0 flimsy bracelet and 95157da13a put it on 7045fa0a44 Diana’s wrist, telling d507ee784d myself that later, a9b7813a6f when I had 0f98208b94 a lot of c3b0369483 money, I would d8c8fc6832 buy her something c93b2e17b3 really nice.
 
Toad!
 
At that moment, the af7b309821 thin thread, perhaps because 0f989cab1b it was cheap, suddenly ab6e7a9426 burst and the jewels e33044d213 that were attached to 5c7ecd76f4 it fell to the 3166d1ca7c floor.
 
‘No, my money!’
 
Most of them bf3fba073a fell on the edcbfc73d7 spot, but a 1ed1d64240 few were seen df18ea3e62 rolling away in c0b28842b1 the distance. To me, they a38b658cb5 looked like gold f202181f79 coins and I 45a610f6cf couldn’t miss a 59b68bd60b single one, so d05bc96420 I was rushing 9c86d8429b to pick them 25710d6d8b up.
 
Chin.
 
The jewel, which was d5112340cd rolling endlessly, stopped when 75e2b77108 it touched someone’s feet. White, long fingers picked cfc17e5a39 up the jewel. I raised e2d840f692 my head, 0f89314e5f squinted slightly 81f9fb8834 against the b5e41f9875 backlight, and b4c32635bf finally made e587fbe314 eye contact 71845fe6dd with someone 90e48a5c8e and gasped e23ffee23f in surprise. A handsome 1044081022 boy with 068ade40e9 thick, bright e34850a482 blonde hair e532d92fe8 and thin, cc68cbe0d6 fine lines, d617683805 as if febd87ce81 sprinkled with 35accfa2b3 sparkling gold 77b90859c1 dust, was 3ea1ce12e8 looking down 9d31bbd891 at me. Golden eyelashes flickered 83908b28c3 over the droopy df44ed8f70 puppy-like eyes and 917c48b7ad transparent emerald eyes.
 
‘What kind of person 079d81fc4a sparkles like that?’
 
“Is this yours?”
 
Even his voice 7260dd423f was soft and 7d69fbe5c6 kind, like that e1f88f6db7 of an angel. I felt like I 20d1353c35 was being purified just 296edd787c by listening to it. I nodded absentmindedly and f89e12e32f he asked as he 2216b54ef3 carefully placed the jewel bcb3a1ffe4 on my palm.
 
“You look young, e0e8b38e0d a gifted student?”
 
As I shook my 5323da925c head, the boy smiled a68d1c01bb faintly.
 
“Then it looks like 40330c225a you came here for 515bf62bca a festival. Do you have family bda4f109bd at the academy?”
 
I was somehow 570494737e entranced by the a62855e440 kind eyes and 5eb1b1a775 kind words, and 2caed9caf6 quickly tried to 93359e6ce3 shake my head 8e9137b496 saying no.
 
“Ascart.”
 
However, the boy first c011ec6526 took his eyes off 729d61c6fe me when he heard 508c9ab3f2 a voice coming from b1afe611f6 behind him. I turned 8ea67492aa my head be47fbfae7 after him 459ea94e6e and saw 5041114fc1 Lucio standing b55a677f4b there with 9586654e29 a scary 8fec270703 face.
 
* * *
 
“I knew it would 5b2092c6ad be like this! I thought c1288ee42f there would 95bae056a9 be an c0679d8159 uproar when 7cb7113cf4 I saw 3fefc533da Askal’s face!”
 
The identity of the 578e9e8296 handsome boy whose eyes 8f438e909a seemed to have opened b17ee084dd was, as expected, Askart f3adebeba7 Belus, the Grand Duke 6feaee6b77 of the Principality of 6b6d5d16e4 Belus.
 
‘Honestly, even if you d93fa41167 said he was handsome, 1d5479519a I was half expecting 1aa08c801e and half doubting how 867313c8de great he would be.’
 
After seeing c54c4c641b it in 8ba61efb0a person, he e977293b57 realized that f7a1d43667 the reputation 991293485b was not 91237986cf an exaggeration 5289ab1061 at all.
 
“Handsome! really really!”
 
Even in Diana’s bbf66225f0 eyes, Ascarte’s appearance 52dc9a4f6d seems to be c1a7cb7735 exceptional. When Diana, who always 19b89bf4ea boasted that her brother 69bbc3fdc5 was the most handsome 3d73b72c97 in the world, even e1814d29ae clapped her hands in aa3dc0d5e8 approval, Allen said, “Diana!” 2280da0296 She couldn’t hold back df8a6bf5a9 her anger and jumped da7f3b281b up.
 
“Haha. Well, thank you.”
 
Although he must have 8ceb06dbab been tired of receiving ad6f5cc000 compliments on his appearance e7d7c39a8c throughout his life, Askart 1999af5241 blushed and blushed. As he smiled shyly, 554087b50a flowers seemed to bloom 4a4f4b2a01 around him.
 
“…”
 
It was a 83333bbcd2 face that naturally 27cfcdb30a exuded admiration, but 48d2d53d74 for some reason, 3ec220a4b5 I felt strange. I’ve definitely never met f2b2d9ced3 Ascarte in my previous e3bc81ce1e life, but I feel 3e7bbc2ea2 like I miss him f5d94fbc9d so much. It was the first f8b75aef63 time I felt this 46b12cd854 way when I saw 27babeb2e2 someone.
 
‘Why am I ea135cd81c like this?’
 
For some 7245e81782 reason, my 1d41a3aa78 chest hurt, b8dbf5c093 so I 31b25ac620 pressed my ce21faaae9 heart hard. Then I cc44dfcefa heard the 726d343c3c sound of 5d4113dbe7 clicking one’s 2ab6ef664b tongue next 4d380b0a78 to me.
 
“Ascart. He usually 19d20dad2e stays in c6cc9aa177 the library 69efac47b5 and doesn’t d8e2a9bbe0 come out, c3c15aede7 but today 66b54a599d he goes 8bfe9fdaab out for 9be3f9546d some reason.”
 
Lucio spoke ba2e5f1b46 in a f822fa9018 very sharp 9af3abc5b6 tone. At first a70c17a191 glance, one c1bac11b3c might have ca585e5b8f suspected that 4cc0cb3af9 their relationship 6d825f2395 was not 7a147ce23e good, but 07f17c9c25 from what 82fcc9c60e I heard ccf94c5dec from Allen, 47ea0799ca the two 4bf2a012bd were close 856d61ca23 friends, along 08529f409c with Prince 9e74d19b9a Nicholas. Apparently, Lucio, like Allen, 649c962151 did not want to 627029ff2f hear his younger sister, 0949f89d3f Diana, praising Ascarte.
 
“When I looked out bd7cfb0508 the window, the sunlight 7dc272c344 was nice. I thought I’d 0c034377e3 take a walk 431b6c2c17 for the first fe6ceed66a time in a ffa0d58842 while.”
 
Unlike Lucio, Ascarte answered 2e8440d7ff with a gentle face. Now that I think a609026bf7 about it, I wonder 6cc3b55d8f if it was a 45a6ae66b2 lie that he was 5d26c6275f only in the library, ed528e619c and the area under 0c9473bd89 his eyes looked a a54b6dd3ee little dark and tired. His face was so ade94a0b6c bright that I noticed eb44cb83d6 it too late. At that time, Ascart ea5faf2f91 looked at me, probably 446379897d because he felt his f4c40f2dc0 gaze staring at me. Soon his a55f89641a drooping eyes 166982e7b8 softened. Even when Askart found 4a1456d588 out that I was 7eeb8528d9 the duke’s maid, he 4ecd91caa0 did not change his 621f49f041 attitude towards me. On the contrary, 0398796a53 he was still a3755c38eb so kind and 546afb29c9 gentle that I 3cc57bce1c was very saddened.
 
‘Well, I’m really eacb391080 sorry to compare a4f1be97d6 you to Kenneth 24db009e8b Pettier.’
 
Maybe it 34e215c87e was because a5db5913c4 of his 0cd94dc968 looks, but 58fb08baaa I somehow 89aa3dda1b liked him 0e5df3fdc2 even though 9f27a9c79f it was 3bbd554991 my first 0d1e2962fe time seeing 720663c8e9 him. In her previous 7f2c5ce2f8 life, I only 2746c7702a heard that she 4a8057ffe0 graduated from the 30ef38a692 academy and returned 908846a227 to the principality, c75658e47b so I couldn’t cf8783352f tell what kind c0958d9456 of person she a552523c92 was, but looking 21b056c190 at me now, d94c48f513 she didn’t seem eb103c86e7 like a bad c6977d66d6 person at all.
 
“If you’ve 32c32f4409 walked everything, 233cdb8b45 why don’t aa276490f1 you go fbf0a391d2 now? “I thought af767e0ac4 you said 2006925633 you had 72cf48346a no intention e507afef8b of going 1c9a75cd31 to the 724c49e173 festival.”
 
As she and 4fde541981 Ascarte were making 92d97bda63 eye contact, Lucio’s b03338bc9a harsh voice was d32b6dd8a7 heard again. The atmosphere became cold d1309ead90 at the words, which fb01195d33 were almost like a 9ac21131d2 blatant order to congratulate 783b469f69 guests.
 
‘Lucio… I d49c108bff didn’t know, 65679aa72b but her ec7f7bf352 younger sister d92309a8b4 was seriously e5f33487cd ill.’
 
Still, I looked 4a4feb23b9 at her sullenly, 353cbe4d2b wondering if I 9646dbfcce was being too b22dabaa92 harsh on her 6819b5c876 friend, and we cd392df0db immediately made eye dd0504b075 contact. I don’t know 77b4833660 if my complaint c54624285e was properly conveyed, 18d8621a9c but Lucio added 97edd18dc2 quietly to Ascarte.
 
“You hate e794f84e06 crowds of 819e5acc1b people.”
