The Demon Prince goes to the Academy Chapter 313

Chapter 313

Wearing a dress and makeup to prepare for Miss Temple cannot be done all day.

After taking off her dress and removing her makeup, Ellen took a shower.

Liana didn’t just look at the dress code and make-up, she even practiced facial expressions. I think you need to prepare thoroughly.

It didn’t seem like he had done anything in particular, but Ellen was very tired right now, perhaps because it was unfamiliar and unfamiliar to her. She is both physically and mentally.

It wasn’t that I didn’t like it.

I thought it was a way to discover a completely different side of myself that I hadn’t even known before. So even while looking in the mirror, I wondered if this was me dozens of times today alone.

After drying her hair, Ellen lay quietly on the bed.

Tomorrow is the start of the Miss Temple contest.

– growl

Ellen narrowed her brows at the sound of a rumble in her stomach.

As usual, it was time to have a late-night snack with Reinhardt. Ellen thinks of Liana’s careful attention.

‘You, don’t pick anything up tonight.’

‘… … why?’

‘I know you don’t gain weight, but what if I eat something at night and my face swells the next day?’

‘… … I don’t know.’

‘Anyway, if you’re not going to eat it, don’t eat it. I don’t know if it’s another day, but I have to put up with it today.’

‘… … huh.’

It’s not that I’m not telling you to starve, it’s that I’m not saying that you shouldn’t eat late-night snacks, but you can keep that much. One day is definitely tolerable.

But the routine is scary.

-Kureuk

“… … .”

I don’t eat at the time I always eat, so my body sends a signal, but I shouldn’t eat.

Even, when someone says not to do it, the desire becomes stronger.

There have been quite a few times when I went to bed without eating a late-night snack, but thinking that I shouldn’t eat today makes me even more hungry.

Normally, Ellen has strong self-control. However, even if I eat, I don’t gain weight because of my exercise and constitution, and there are always plenty of food in the royal class dormitory. She even sticks with Reinhardt, who will do anything she says, and she has been with her for quite some time.

Ellen realizes that she has rarely put up with what she eats lately.

Still, tomorrow we have to show a better side of ourselves. Could it be that I just can’t stand the hunger?

Even though I try to fall asleep, I can’t sleep well.

I wonder if it’s because of the moonlight pouring through the window. Ellen got up from bed rustling to draw the curtains on her.

and.

Caught by the curtain, Ellen could see the street outside the dormitory.

In the dark, under the moonlight.

I see two familiar people.

Reinhardt and Heriot de Saintoine.

The two of them were walking hand in hand.

“… … .”

Ellen quietly watches the scene from inside her room.

Harriet walks beside Reinhardt with her head down, perhaps ashamed, and Reinhardt walks with her hands lightly held next to him.

Seeing the scene, Ellen watched the scene as if it were frozen.

hold hands

How special is that really?

I’ve tried holding hands, and I’ve tried hugging them.

he has done everything Although he was friends with Reinhardt, he always did.

So, it belongs to the category of actions that can be done between friends, and that’s how you should understand it.

You have to understand that you can do that.

but.

Ellen couldn’t take her eyes off their clasped hands.

already.

have you been robbed?

no.

already from a long time ago.

There was a part that only I could reach. Everything here is an illusion.

‘long time no see!’

actually already.

A long time ago.

Did that happen?

why are those two

how.

It’s a hand you can hold.

It’s the hand that I’ve been holding on to.

Did I think that being able to come into contact with Reinhardt was my privilege? That’s why, while watching Harriet and just holding hands.

Why is my heart like this

Is it dangerous as if it will be broken?

‘I-I’m here… … . really really… … . Sometimes.’

‘I really think you’re mean… … .’

What Harriet had once said lingered in Ellen’s head.

Ellen naturally realizes that Harriet has always felt this way.

where you don’t know. Watching from afar as they create stories and memories they don’t know.

Creating a relationship that you can’t get into.

I have to just watch it, and this situation where I can’t do anything.

It felt like this.

It feels like I’ve been betrayed, I don’t know what to do, I feel resentful, sad and unfair.

Did Harriet express this feeling with one word, petty?

I just don’t think it’s a feeling that can be expressed in words.

Ellen sees the two returning to the dormitory.

It may already be too late.

Harriet is doing what she has to do. He has no need or reason to hate. To hate that kind of figure, Ellen should have been hated by Harriet long ago.

Ellen tries to convince herself that Harriet is just working hard in her own way, and there is no need to hate it.

So, you just have to do what you have to do.

You just need to show a good image tomorrow. Reinhardt, who saw himself tomorrow, might be a little different from before.

After talking about this and that, it might be a little different from before.

That’s it.

Today is today, and tomorrow is tomorrow.

Ellen closed her eyes tightly, trying to erase the image of the two of them from her mind.

That night.

I swung my sword in the gymnasium.

No Cliffman, no Ellen. So he knocked over the scarecrow after quite a while. She could have asked Tana, who raised Sabi, to teach her, but it was late, and when the man quietly taught her, she was motivated to do this and that, so it seemed like she wouldn’t be able to sleep on time.

So, I swung my training sword at the scarecrow.

-Puff!

“… … pestilence.”

The training sword is broken.

Have you swung your sword to the point of trance? I’m not that crazy about swords.

what is it

I forgot the time.

It was already well past the standard bedtime. Even if he had been taught by Saviolin Tana, it would have been over already.

My whole body was drenched in sweat.

I gathered the remnants of the broken training sword and tossed them in the trash, then opened the window of the gymnasium.

A chilly wind blew past my cheeks and sweaty clothes.

me now

Somehow, it seems disturbing.

What should I do?

No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t figure it out.

It’s been a while since bedtime, and I thought I’d break it again if I tried swinging the training sword in this state, so I washed up and tried to sleep.

I was thinking of making something to eat, but I didn’t feel like making something myself without Ellen.

“uh.”

And as I was passing through the hallway, I bumped into someone. The guy who bumped into me looked at me and tilted his head.

The one who bumped into me was Bertus, not anyone else.

Aren’t you busy managing the magic train right now? What’s going on in the dormitory at this time?

“What, are you not sleeping until this time?”

Rather, Bertus did what I said.

“Sometimes at the gymnasium.”

“… … Training until late at the festival. That’s great.”

Bertus laughed.

“What are you doing?”

“ah… … . I had some work, now I’m going to rest.”

The festival isn’t over yet, but is the work related to the operation of the ecliptic magic train finished?

Dark circles under Bertus’ eyes were dark, probably because he had been up all night or had too much work. Aren’t you supposed to praise me while training at the festival? Aren’t you rather tough than usual?

“Oh, I heard you won the tournament. Congratulations.”

“uh… … . okay.”

Bertus patted me on the shoulder and walked towards his room. If the tiredness on the face of that guy with the iron mask showed, it seemed like he had been through a lot of hard work for a few days.

And, he was about to go in, but he suddenly turned to me as if he had remembered something.

“ah… … . wait for a sec.”

“uh… … . why?”

Cold sweat breaks out all over the body.

All the others got through without incident.

he’s not yet

This is the first time he sees me now after seeing me dressed as a woman.

Bertus narrows his brows and stares at me.

isn’t it?

don’t you know? To be honest, even though we met face-to-face, that’s enough to just pass by for a moment?

“Hmm… … .”

Bertus stared at me frowning, then shook his head.

“No, you look a little tired.”

Bertus let out a chill running down his spine and then went into the room.

* * *

After entering the dormitory room, Bertus dragged his body, which was as heavy as wet cotton, washed, and then lay down on the bed.

Operation management of the magic train during the festival.

I didn’t think of it as something insignificant. The magic train is the most important means of transportation in the ecliptic, and there are usually many users, and even during this period, users from all over the continent flock to it.

blast furnace.

There are people who have never seen or heard of a magic train in their entire lives.

Not only children cry over a monster running, but there are also adults who run away in a panic.

this is a nobleman

Even in a remote corner of the continent, there is a thing called status.

Having a big heart and coming to the imperial capital to see the Temple Festival means that you have enough money to pay for the warp gate.

That’s why, usually, those of high rank in their region come to the ecliptic.

Not to mention the number of people threatening to ask why there is no nobility-only carriage on the magic train. There are a lot of people who ask how they can use the same means of transportation as commoners.

It’s not even funny how the ants rank themselves, but Bertus had to do it well.

As I tried to solve all incidents and accidents as smoothly and safely as possible, I was under a lot of stress.

So I couldn’t even rest properly, and I was on the way back to the dormitory because I thought I would have to sleep for today.

Bertus is on the verge of bursting his head right now.

However, when I saw Reinhardt, something suddenly came to my mind.

I don’t have time to think because I’m busy with work, but the girl I ran into last time.

The moment I saw Reinhardt, I immediately thought of that silver-haired girl.

I can’t forget.

He committed a ridiculous act of pouring black tea on the face of a woman he had never seen before, but Bertus will never forget that person’s face for the rest of his life.

‘Looks like. clearly.’

I wondered if I was mistaken because I was tired, but when I thought about it, it was clear that they resembled each other.

Of course, you have to stand next to it to know it properly.

It is certain that the silver-haired girl and Reinhardt resemble a lot.

However, Bertus’ thinking unfolds in a rather strange way.

first.

Bertus is busy and doesn’t know how the festival is going. At best, he only knew that Reinhardt had won the first year tournament.

So, I don’t know who the silver-haired girl is, and I don’t even know that she participated in the temple women’s dress up contest.

Therefore, to Bertus, a silver-haired girl is just a silver-haired girl.

two completely different.

but it resembles

It even resembles the mouth a little bit.

Silver hair was a little strange, so I asked, and he said it was dyed.

And, Reinhardt was from the street.

‘Does Reinhardt have a younger brother or sister?’

There are cases where they are abandoned at birth, so there is a good chance that Reinhardt doesn’t even know that he has blood relatives.

It’s a question you can ask Reinhardt.

Do you have any younger sisters or older sisters?

Of course, the answer would be yes or no, but Reinhardt would wonder why he was asking such a thing.

‘No, it might not be.’

Isn’t it just that people can resemble each other?

If you just say that you met someone who was supposed to be your brother or sister, Reinhardt would be pretty disappointed if he didn’t.

‘Shall we find out… … .’

There was no need to tell Reinhardt.

If it’s right, it might be possible to find a lost blood relative to Reinhardt.

If not, at the level of returning the handkerchief that was not returned at that time.

Thinking that it was just such a light thing, Bertus slowly fell into a daze.
