3.
Immediately after facing Ulan.
Ibella’s mind turned white.
Actually, I had something in mind.
Why didn’t you come?
I wanted to ask him why he didn’t keep his promise. However, as soon as I saw Ulan, I became speechless and no voice came out.
“… … .”
There is only one reason.
There is something that overrides all emotions.
‘I miss you.’
Just a happy feeling.
When I saw Ulan again after 15 days, the burning flames of jealousy and anger instantly disappeared as if they had never happened before.
Meanwhile, around that time.
Ulan widened his eyes.
“Ibella.”
Because I found her too late.
As soon as I made eye contact with his turquoise eyes, I bowed my head without hesitation.
“I’m sorry for not being able to keep my promise.”
“… … ah.”
A low-pitched voice pounding in my ears.
When I heard this, my mind came to me.
When Ibella seemed to have come out of her thoughts, Ulan explained why he had not kept his promise to her.
After some time has passed.
Ulan’s story is over.
Because Noah filled in the missing parts of the explanation, Ibella was able to understand what Ulan was trying to say without difficulty.
“Um, so… … .”
After nodding once with a stern face.
She summarized Ulan and Noah’s lengthy story in one word.
“To sum it up, you predicted that Delia would be in danger and went to save her, right?”
“Accurate.”
Ulan quietly nods his head.
Immediately, Ibella’s eyes turned to Noah.
‘Noah has foresight.’
The ability to read the future through dreams.
Since I have actually experienced this in the past, I can easily understand and move on.
On the other hand, there were some parts I didn’t understand.
“But why do Ulan…” … .”
The question is, did you go to save Delia?
There might have been a way to let the duchy know that Delia was in danger, or they could have borrowed the power of Marquis Gorfant, but why bother?
So, around the time I was frowning.
Ulan’s reply came back.
“Of course, Delia is a valuable colleague.”
“Precious colleague?”
The beautiful eyebrows twitched.
It was a response to the words that it was precious.
Ybella, who had a disapproving expression on her face, bit her lip slightly and asked back.
“Then what am I?”
“what?”
“What am I to Ulan?”
Ibella approached forward.
The distance between the two quickly became closer. If you get a little closer, you can even feel his breathing.
Ulan, on the other hand, did not blink an eye.
Then he answered indifferently.
“You are also a valuable colleague.”
“… … “Is that all?”
The question comes back again.
Ulan tried to say yes.
But for a moment, I was speechless.
Ibella’s turquoise eyes looked somehow sad. As if I’m about to shed tears right now.
“that… … .”
So I swallowed back the voice that was about to come out of my mouth. Afterwards, I blurted out a word that came out of nowhere without my knowledge.
“For now, yes.”
“For now… … ?”
Right after hearing that.
Ibella’s expression changed subtly.
It had to be that way.
The answer just now could be interpreted to mean that there is room for change in the relationship in the future.

The moment I realized this fact.
Strangely enough, I felt somewhat at ease.
At the same time, the tightness in my chest was relieved, and I felt much better. The feelings of jealousy that dominated her mind had also subsided.
“Whoa.”
After barely regaining my composure.
She let out a long sigh and regained her sense of stability. She then looked at her uhlan again.
“Let me ask you one more question.”
“what?”
“If I find myself in a dangerous situation, will you come to my rescue like Delia?”
“Of course.”
An immediate answer without any hesitation.
Unwavering, clear eyes.
It’s true. When I realized this, I felt like my core was melting away and disappearing.
“… … okay.”
Steady breathing sounds with deep breathing.
Ibella nodded silently.
“I will understand this matter and move on.”
“thank you for understanding.”
Ulan bowed his head once again.
At that time, Ibella continued speaking.
“There is a condition instead.”
“condition?”
“Do me a favor later.”
“If you please… … .”
“I can’t say anything right now, but it won’t be a difficult request for Ulan.”
Slightly red cheeks and earlobes.
Turquoise eyes trembled slightly.
Then Ulan, who was looking at Ibella blankly, willingly gave an answer.
“good night. “Let’s do that.”
Because he was the one who broke his promise in the first place.
So, if this made me feel better, I was willing to do the favor. I didn’t know the content, but I also said it wasn’t a difficult request.
“Yes, that’s enough.”
Ibella also looked satisfied.
The faint smile that bloomed at the corner of his mouth was evidence.
By the time the conversation came to an end.
Grumble!
A familiar noise was heard.
It was a sound coming from Ulan’s stomach.
“Ahaha, Ulan is still the same.”
A loud, clearly audible sound.
Ibella burst out laughing.
She spun around, immediately linked arms with Ulan and smiled brightly.
“Shall we have a meal together after a long time?”
“That’s a good idea.”
An offer that there is no reason to reject.
Ulan’s eyes sparkled.
Just as I was about to head to the restaurant.
“Now, wait a minute!”
There was someone stopping the two.
It was Noah. At the sudden stop, Ybella asked the reason with her eyes, and Noah answered with an awkward smile.
“Hey, Delia hasn’t arrived yet… … .”
“You don’t need him.”
An answer as cold as ice came back.
With a cold look in her eyes, she revealed the reason why she didn’t need Delia.
“Whatever the reason, don’t you think she and Ulan were together all vacation?”
“Well, that’s true, but… … .”
“So today it’s my turn.”
You can never give in.
With eyes flashing with determination, Ibella hugged Ulan’s arm tightly.
A tougher attitude than before.
When Ibella came out this strong, Noah couldn’t tell her to wait any longer.
“Now, let’s go quickly.”
Ybella pulling Ulan’s arm.
Since it was impossible to send the two of them alone, Noah followed Ulan and headed to the restaurant.
Is it because it is a somewhat ambiguous time?
Unlike during the semester, the cafeteria was quite quiet.
So, just as I was about to go inside without hesitation, someone suddenly approached me. Then he suddenly stretched out his hand and covered Ulan’s eyes.
“Who will it be?”
“… … !”
At the same time, Ibella’s eyes widened.
There is only one reason.
‘what? At some point… … .’
This is because the presence was not noticed.
I couldn’t even hear the other person’s footsteps.
If she didn’t notice any sign of her going from intermediate to advanced knight, it would mean that she was stronger than Ibella.
Meanwhile, Ulan showed no signs of agitation.
Unlike Ibella, he, who always spreads out the Master’s territory, had already noticed the signs approaching this way.
However, the reason I obediently allowed access was because it was a voice I remembered. So, just as I was about to answer the voice’s question.
Soon my vision became bright again.
A bright voice was heard next.
“Hehe, I tried to make a joke.”
Pure white hair.
Bright red eyes like a rabbit.
The girl, dressed in neat overall clothes, spoke with a flawless and bright smile.
“Did I tell you this last time? “She will be attending Arsene Academy starting in the fall semester.”
A pure tone that touches your ears.
This girl with a mysterious aura is one of the warriors who fought against the abyss with Ulan in her past life.
It was Perticia.
“So, please take care of me in the future!”
She smiles with a bright face.
On the other hand, there were also people who could not smile at all.
“… … .”
It was Ibella.
The moment I realized that the person who came up and blindfolded Ulan was a woman, it was also a very pretty girl.
‘What is this again?’
Ibella’s face crumpled with a look in her eyes as if she was saying that. Then, a spark lit up in her turquoise eyes again.
4.
Private room located in the student cafeteria.
In a space filled with desolate silence, Noah sighed repeatedly without saying a word.
It had to be that way.
Originally, I had planned to just have a quick meal, but things didn’t work out that way.
“… … .”
Ulan looks at the menu.
Perticia smiling brightly.
Ibella, who opened her eyes, and Delia, who joined her late and frowned.
For Noah, who knew everyone’s relationship, it wouldn’t be strange if he pretended right away.
‘I’m really going to go crazy.’
Just being in the same place as the four of us feels like walking on thin ice. Moreover, for some reason, my heart felt tight.
‘I just want to go back.’
A face with a clear look of fatigue.
Noah sighed again.
Then.
“Well, then… first of all… … .”
Perticia pursed her lips.
A voice as pure as a jade bead rolling.
Ibella and Delia’s wary eyes turned to her. At the same time Perticia continued her words with a bright smile on her face.
“Shall we start by introducing ourselves?”
No, it looks like that’s the mood right now?!
Noah really wanted to argue. However, the introduction of Perticia was one step ahead.
“My name is Tisha Lapidis and I have been attending Arsene Academy since the fall semester.”
“hmm? Tisha Lapidis?”
“yes! “I was assigned to 1st grade and 2nd class.”
She smiles brightly.
On the other hand, Ulan tilted his head. This may be because she used a pseudonym, not her real name.
‘Of course it is.’
Perticia is the hidden princess of the empire.
If your identity is discovered, it will attract attention in many ways, so it makes sense to use a pseudonym.
Additionally, I could guess why I was assigned to class 2.
Perhaps it was to fill the void left by Himel Deorg dropping out.
Meanwhile, after Perticia’s introduction.
Ibella opened her eyes wide, like someone who realized something late.
“Wait a minute, if it’s Lapidis… … .”
“We are a marquis family from the eastern part of the empire.”
With an answer that came back right away.
The turquoise eyes became even larger.
This was because there was a person that came to mind as soon as I heard the name of the Marquis Lapidis family.
‘Limer yen lapidis.’
The Five Swords of the Empire and the Lightsword of the East.
The first female swordsman on the continent to reach the level of master. Therefore, she was also a person that Bella admired.
‘then… … .’
It is understandable that he hid his presence earlier.
The Lapidis family is a prestigious swordsman family.
He was born and raised there, so if he was able to transfer to Arsene Academy, he would naturally have outstanding skills.
Immediately after realizing this.
His desire to win as a prosecutor ignited.
A desire to share a sword with a girl from a family that belongs to a strong man he respects. Perticia pursed her lips, whether she knew it or not.
“I was introduced to Ulan and Noah last time, so now all I have to do is hear their introduction… … .”
“… … you.”
Then at that moment.
Delia, who had been quiet until now, narrowed her eyes. she asked, her voice full of caution, like a cat with its fur on end.
“What are you doing with Ulan?”
“There is no relationship yet.”
“yet?”
“Well, if I had to explain it, I would have to say that we happened to run into each other on the street.”
All we did was exchange a few words.
Ibella snorted, probably thinking it was a ridiculous excuse. Delia, on the other hand, just bit her lip slightly.
‘truth.’
There was no lie in Perticia’s words.
The white light flowing from the body was evidence.
Meanwhile, after finishing her answer, Perticia immediately looked at Ibella and continued speaking.
“For your information, I saw that person over there once too.”
“what? me? when?”
“Of course, we never said hello in person, but I remember seeing Ulan eating hotcakes at a cafe in the capital.”
“… … !”
The capital’s cafe, hotcakes.
The moment I heard those two words, briefly forgotten memories came alive like wildfire.
When I first went out on a date with Ulan.
There was a time when he looked away for a moment in a cafe. Only then did Bella, who remembered her time, open her eyes wide as if she recognized Perticia.
“Oh, no way then… … !”
“I guess I remember now.”
Perticia smiled as if she was happy to see it.
After the story was over, Ibella and Delia reluctantly finished introducing themselves. He then summarized information about Perticia.
To summarize, it’s not a big deal.
They said they only exchanged a few words after running into each other on the street.
‘but… … .’
Still, you can’t let down your guard.
It was hard to just relax because Perticia’s appearance was unusual. That’s when she was watching her as if she was on guard.
“Oh right!”
The bright red eyes turned round.
As if I remembered something I had forgotten.
Perticia then looked back at Ulan and suddenly took something out of her pocket.
“Do you by any chance remember this?”
“that… … .”
A wooden sculpture in the shape of an owl.
It was a somewhat crude material, but the moment I encountered it, my memories came back.
When I met Perticia at the night market.
And it was given as a gift when I won a prize with her help.
“It’s the statue I gave you.”
“that’s right! He gave it to me as a gift. “It’s the first gift I’ve ever received, so I treasure it.”
Perticia smiles happily.
On the contrary, Ibella and Delia’s faces turned as cold as ice.
It was a natural reaction.
To them, it must have seemed like they were showing off the gift they received from Ulan.
‘But that’s not it.’
Perticia has no malice.
He has no intention of keeping Ibella and Delia in check, and even if you just look at his eyes, you can see that he doesn’t think of Ulan as a member of the opposite s*x.
‘I’m just a bit clueless.’
Seven warriors of the Arsene Continent War.
Each hero has a ‘symbol’.
For example, Ulan can be said to be brave enough to face any fear without giving in.
Ibella has unwavering pride, Delia has upright beliefs, etc.
‘And Perticia… … .’
Unspoiled purity.
It is appropriate to call her a bird in a cage, and the number of people Perticia has met since she was born is within the top ten.
Of course, you can’t help but notice it.
‘If you think about your original personality, just meeting new people would be a good thing.’
At least that is until the penalty that exists for Perticia is implemented.
When Noah was finishing his guess.
Suddenly the restaurant door burst open.
Ibella and Delia widened their eyes at the identity of the visitor who came in next.
“Marquis Gorpant?”
“What’s going on here… … .”
Seorik al-Ghorfant.
Meanwhile, Ulan muttered as if he guessed the reason for his visit.
“It looks like the disciplinary results have come out.”
“No, that is still being discussed.”
“hmm? “Then why did you come here?”
“I have business with that transfer student.”
After answering, he turned around.
Then he spoke to Perticia.
“Tisha Lapidis, the Dean is looking for you.”
“Oh, that’s right. “You were supposed to come visit me, right?”
“okay. “I heard you have something important to say before the school opening ceremony, so please hurry and follow me.”
“yes! “I will do that.”
She got up from her seat.
Perticia bowed her head politely while facing Ulan and the others.
“Then I will excuse myself. “When we meet again later, please pretend like we know each other!”
After waving his hand with a lively face.
Perticia followed Seorik out of the restaurant. After a while, Ibella and Delia muttered with blank faces.
“What on earth are you doing?”
A personality that can never make sense.
However, there was one thing I realized.
‘You can’t leave Ulan around.’
Two pairs of eyes flashed.
If you look at it calmly, you can see that there is no rational interest in Ulan right now. But I can’t guarantee that he won’t be interested in the future.
The two girls experienced it themselves.
Because Ulan’s charms are endless.
The moment I realized this fact.
Turquoise eyes and golden eyes intertwined in the air. Afterwards, the two nodded without saying anything first.
Even though there wasn’t even a word of conversation, it was a moment where each other’s intentions were clearly conveyed.
And the next morning.
In the main auditorium where repair work was completed, the opening ceremony to announce the start of a new semester began.
