Chapter 141 – Episode 141 Request a Duel. Chaos, Mayhem
“Haha, what is this?”
Ronald came to his office his and asked.
“It’s a showdown between young girls over a man. I had never heard of anything like this.”
“Me too.”
Duel.
It was an aristocratic event held by knights over a young lady.
The winner gets the lady, the loser gives up everything.
I heard that there were many duels like this in the past.
But.
In this era, it was a method that even knights did not easily try.
These days, it is common to marry within the family.
There was no need to go through such a duel.
‘I never thought he would bring up a duel.’
My head hurt.
He thought that if he told him that there was a marriage talk with the emir, he would turn into emperor.
It was the result of underestimating Ryuclid’s will too much.
“Tsk.”
“How should I proceed? If these were knights, they would do horseback duels, duels in the Colosseum, or hunting. What is this…”
Count Ronald said, scratching his cheek.
“Should we make knitting or cross-stitch a dueling event?”
I looked up at that count.
“Even though the emperor looks like that, you haven’t forgotten that he’s originally a knight of a higher level, right?”
“Ah… That’s right. Quite a few knights won.”
That’s probably why he asked for a duel.
Confidence that the other young ladies wouldn’t be as strong.
But.
‘All the candidates are scary…’
Seria, Emir.
What kind of people are these two?
Even the Duke of Solarion could not easily defeat them.
It didn’t look like a lineup that Ryuclid could win.
“Whoa.”
“What should I do?”
“Why are you asking me that?”
“Actually, this is it. As you know, the duel event was usually decided by the young lady, the cause of the duel… This is a young lady, not a knight, no, the emperor, but since she became a woman anyway, should I call her a young lady, anyway? The young lady has applied for a duel, so the minister has to decide the event.”
“What?”
You want me to decide the sport?
“That’s right. That… Whether it’s a horseback duel, a Colosseum duel, hunting, all of those things, Minister Morris…”
Count Ronald’s words were scarcely finished.
Bang!
The door is open.
At the door that opened without knocking.
Emir stood there with a devilish expression on his face.
“What is this?”
“Ah, that’s it. Lady Solarion…”
“I didn’t ask Sir Ronald.”
Haha. Sorry.”
Count Ronald, who took a hit for no reason, fell to the side.
Emir walked over to her office desk and her.
Quaang!
Hit it
“Emir, the desk will break.”
“What are you talking about? It’s a duel. The marriage contract has already been concluded between the families. In return, the Minister also paid for it, so why…”
“Did Sebastian just let you in?”
“Don’t talk back.”
Failed.
“Yes.”
I nodded.
“Why? Why did you accept it?”
“I couldn’t help it. If I don’t receive it, what will they do if they say they’ll make me a government official or an emperor?”
“Morris-sama can become the emperor, right? The emperor himself said he wanted to give it to Maurice.”
“Complex.”
“You don’t want to marry me, do you?”
“Of course. Why not?”
I put my hand on the back of Emir’s hand that hit the desk.
“I have spent years with you.”
“Then, when Maurice decides the type of fight, it’s in my favor…”
It was then.
“Wait!”
It was Seria.
She entered her office through the open door wearing a dress, not the maid outfit she always saw.
“I don’t know why Lady Solarion is here.”
“Because she is a married woman with whom marriage talks have come and gone.”
“I understand that His Majesty canceled it due to a duel.”
What Seria was wearing was a red dress that was tight enough to barely reveal the silhouette of her body.
As she befits the daughter of a duke in the past, her clothes were more unconventional and more glamorous than any dresses I had seen.
“Then why did Miss Seria wear a dress? She still thinks she’s a maid.”
Although she emphasized that her status was insignificant due to the lack of work.
“Because I’m going to join the duel too.”
“Yes?”
“You know that participating in a duel has no restrictions on status, right?”
“That, that…”
“So I came. I was taught to wear formal clothes when requesting a duel. Right? Master?”
Wearing those clothes, you are the master.
Something was awkward
“… That’s right.”
It was a duel that even slaves could participate in.
Of course, no slave had ever won a duel.
Participation was possible.
“Her.”
Emir laughed incredulously.
“You seem serious.”
“Sure. I was in a state of anger because a certain female cat stole my master, but His Majesty just gave me a chance.”
Seria with a triumphant smile pushed Emir.
Then she handed me her red rose, which she was holding in her left hand.
It was a symbol that a man participating in a duel would offer to Young lady.
“Hey Seria, I’m officially participating in the duel. Master.”
A smile full of confidence that she will win.
I could see Emir clenching his teeth.
“Are you serious?”
“Sure. You cannot miss an opportunity like this.”
I knew it would be like this.
That if the emperor asked for a duel, Seria would definitely participate.
I knew but
Ryuclid probably didn’t know.
“Ha, by the way, what is this rose?”
“What is it? Isn’t it common sense to hand over a rose during a duel?”
“Do you think of me as a noble lady?”
“I’m not a young lady… There is no other good gift. Hehe.”
“Ha.”
If I receive this rose, Seria will also participate in the duel.
Emir winked at him not to receive it.
Seria beckoned her to take it quickly.
The energy of the two women collided in the office.
Dismissed!
Sparks flew.
“Heeep!”
Ronald couldn’t stand the energy of the two women over there and hiccupped.
“Let’s get there. Count Ronald is having a hard time.”
After speaking, I received a rose.
“For a fair duel, I will accept this rose.”
“Morris!”
Emir shouted, but I didn’t change my mind.
“Seria deserves it.”
“However…”
“I already received it, so let’s stop talking about it here. Then, can the two young ladies go out for a while?”
I pointed to Ronald.
“I still have work to do.”
In the end, the two young ladies went out of the office at the same time.
Seria had a triumphant face.
The emir takes full advantage of her anger.
Thud.
Only after seeing the door close.
“What sport are you going to choose?”
“We’ll decide that later.”
It was not urgent.
“Is this the agony of a popular man? I envy you. It’s romantic.Haha.”
“The joke ends there. Wasn’t there a business originally?”
“Oh, that’s right. That, the question of restoring the identity of Lady Seria Siegfried.”
“What do the nobles think?”
“Unanimously, passed.”
“It seems that Solarion also acknowledged it.”
“Because it was the emperor who made the proposal.”
“Whoa, I’m glad.”
Restoration of Executed Status.
It had never happened before in history.
For that reason, it required the consent of the nobles as well as the emperor’s Yunheo.
And all of those procedures have just been completed.
“The hard work is over.”
“You have suffered a lot. With this, Siegfried has paid off a debt.”
“Is it.”
I leaned back in my chair.
The lottery of Seria Siegfried.
It was the price he received from Ruclid for doing what he wanted.
I asked for her status to be returned to her former duke’s daughter her.
I thought I would run into some pretty fierce opposition.
‘Maurice, whatever you want is fine.’
Received my offer coolly.
‘Because she’s nothing to me anymore anyway.’
At that time, the eyes looking at me lovingly were burdensome.
“Where did I go wrong?”
I do not know.
Now.
Even if magic works too well, that’s a problem.
It was a moment of rediscovery.
***
Rumor has it that the emperor turned into a woman.
Rumors spread throughout the capital that three women were dueling over Maurice.
In addition, to the restoration of the status of the daughter of Duke Siegfried of Seria.
After the post-processing of the civil war, the capital became heated again with news.
“I heard that His Majesty the Emperor became a woman?”
“No, what the hell is going on? Not anyone else, but His Majesty the Emperor… Oops.”
“Isn’t that the guy named Maurice? The leader of the rebellion.”
“There is nothing this man cannot say. You want her to run away? It must be a political marriage since he is in power.”
“Siegfried is lucky. That the woman who was executed is regaining her identity of her.”
“Did she ever do that?”
The story blossomed with the news that broke out in succession on every street in the capital.
“All sorts of things come out. I don’t think this is going to spread even useless rumors.”
Said Duke Siegfried, who was riding in a carriage with me through the city.
“Those rumors just linger in the streets.”
I responded to the duke.
“Cheuk, that’s right. No one would dare to tarnish the honor of Siegfried and Dmitri.”
The Duke laughed lowly.
“What did you call me for?”
After looking out the window for a moment, the duke turned his gaze to me.
“Are you serious?”
“What do you mean?”
“You mean you won’t become emperor.”
“Of course.”
“You are ambitious.”
“Peace in an empire comes with hardships.”
“Hey, you’re a idiot too. Since this kind of person was confined in an outdated mage tower, he was about to explode.”
For a moment the carriage was quiet.
“Who will you choose?”
“You keep asking me floating questions.”
“You’re not sure you don’t know what I’m asking?”
“Dueling is not my business. It depends on their skills.”
“These are the girls who will become the future countess. Haven’t you decided on one? I will do the sports accordingly.”
“Did you call me to open your mind?”
“It’s similar.”
Break through the front
“Think of her as an old woman, worried about her daughter her.”
“She’s not a daughter, is n’t she concerned about her family?”
“In the past, I would have said family, but now the daughter comes first. Of course, the family name is also important.”
He was once greatly ruined by Seria.
That would be true.
“I will tell you one thing. As much as possible, we will make fair games for everyone. I have no intention of favoring any one person and choosing an advantageous event.”
“Is that the unit price?”
“Of course. Even if it is a daughter whose father is trying to open my heart, I will treat her fairly.”
It was a direct warning.
Not to do this
“It’s scary, but it’s reliable. I don’t think my daughter will lose the match you set up.”
“Has Ruclid already fallen out of the target?”
“The emperor was great when he was a man, but now…”
Duke Siegfried shrugged his shoulders.
“You know.”
The moment he spoke.
Awesome!
“Hi-yi-ing!”
The carriage suddenly stopped.
“What is this! How do you drive!”
Siegfried screamed.
His face his distorted, he glared at the coachman.
“I’m sorry. But it…”
“What the hell…”
And.
“It’s Maurice! Snow White, the girl, is coming!”
A woman’s booming voice was heard.
Pure white hair.
And she is a woman with fair skin.
She stood in the thick armor of the north, blocking her carriage.
