chapter 8
8 – The protagonist of a reverse harem (4)
Leon stopped climbing the stairs and turned his head.
“ha…….”
He asked if he let out a sigh as he grabbed his forehead with his left hand.
“What are you doing?”
“I’ve tied your feet.”
“why?”
“Because you have to go with me to the investigation. Other than that, I can’t go anywhere.”
“so why?”
“That’s why you know best, don’t you?”
There is a giddiness in her straight eyes.
“Because I tried to kill His Majesty’s people. That’s a very serious crime.”
“My actions are self-defense to the last.”
“It’s not self-defence, it’s overdefense.”
“My lady. Have you ever been to a battlefield?”
“……There is not.”
“It’s a look of presence.”
He seemed to answer right away, but there was a slight hesitation.
I don’t know what kind of battlefield it is, but it is said that there is an experience of participating in a place where death is rampant.
“So, have you ever killed a person?”
“…”
“Sounds like there is.”
Leon stepped down the stairs again, his blood-red eyes shining.
“Are you stupid or are you straight?”
Leon came up to the gymnasium and stopped at some distance from her.
“Even though I have experience, they say it’s excessive defense.”
You’ve gone out to the battlefield full of screams and shouts, fought and even killed people, but you’re just messing around with this?
Seriously, one of the emperor’s subjects was badly injured and was stepping out like that?
One thing I know for sure.
That the black-haired woman’s attitude wasn’t straight, it was stupid.
The red-haired young man undid the string that was tied only at the back of his hair, as if his flowing bangs were bothering him.
Then sweep up to the bangs and tie them at once,
He took out the sword from his belt and held it with his right hand.
“What could be more stupid than telling an enemy who rushes at you with the will to live?”
Because he is an aristocrat who grew up like a flower in a greenhouse, he has no sense of reality.
It’s annoying to be messing around, and the act of paying attention to it is like an idiot.
Even though I know I have to put up with it for the sake of Katherine, for some reason I want to let this rising tantrum go.
“You were the one who attacked first. Don’t blame me if you get hurt.”
“Are you finally revealing your true colors?”
Tung, Thuong.
He flicks his right arm holding the sword once and blows the sheath far away.
“Let me tell you one thing.”
cooong!
“One of my least favorite styles is a hypocrite like you.”
Leon rolled his left foot, which had been stepping on the floor of the gymnasium.
Then, his body shot like an arrow leaving a protest at the black-haired woman.
“…!”
Chae Ae-aeng!
“I’m going to ask you to take care of the situation, young lady.”
“Kuh, uh…!”
Leon, who approached with movements that were difficult to follow with his eyes, struck the sword, and the sword she was holding collided with and the resulting sword resonated sharply throughout the arena.
A black-haired woman moans at unexpected speed and power.
As she gritted her teeth, she infused magic into the sword she was holding.
Then, like a blazing flame, a blue black air rose, disturbing Leon’s vision.
Even so, the young man stood there with a calm expression as if nothing had happened.
‘Even if I’m hit with magic head-on, nothing’s wrong?’
The black-haired woman speaks in a furious voice as if she is angry with him.
“With this kind of power… such an outrageous thing…!”
“You said it was self-defense, right?”
“It’s embarrassing… you know…!”
“…it doesn’t make sense.”
Chaeng, Chaeng! Chan-!
I swung my sword in rapid succession to drive it to the edge of the gymnasium, but
She managed to withstand all of those sword attacks.
Leon put on a slightly surprised expression and thrust his sword at it.
visor!
“Suck!”
Chaeeng!
The man turned his body once,
Using that rotational force, he swung his sword.
“It’s awesome…!”
Chan-!
What is this feeling of déjà vu?
It feels like seeing yourself in your 20s.
Of course, I’m not talking about this world, but the time when I lived as Yang Baek-ho on Earth.
Out-of-standard swordsmanship and a genius talent that doesn’t fit his age.
I haven’t regained most of my strength yet, but my accumulated experiences are still there.
So I thought I would knock it down soon.
But she was holding on precariously.
I was somehow blocking the sword attack I wielded.
Of course, she didn’t attack me with the intent to kill me, but with the intention of threatening me, so I’m taking it easy.
Anyway, considering her age, it doesn’t make sense.
I’m curious because this is how it happens.
Is her talent really real?
Whoops!
When the dormant magic power was awakened, the surrounding atmosphere began to stir.
Her expression, which was already stiff at the change, completely hardens like a stone statue.
“How can you get this much power…”
Whole body fighting method

“By the way, what’s your name, young lady?”
“……It’s sudden during the match. Why are you asking that?”
“Knowing it will make it easier to deal with later.”
I answered that while bending my back a bit and taking the Iai ceremony.
It would be embarrassing if you rushed at me later saying ‘I will avenge the disgrace I received today’.
I’ll have to tell the duke’s family in advance to make preparations.
If that woman had delivered the princess, there would be no answer, but could she deliver the princess?
The imperial family is not an idle family.
The probability that the princess was training alone in the gymnasium at this time would converge to zero.
Soon, on top of the sword Leon is holding, blue energy and white energy,
A mysterious scene where the two energies are mixed together unfolds in the air.
She stared intently at my sword,
He answered in a voice as if he had made up his mind somewhere.
“……Laura.”
My past self was weak.
I couldn’t help but look at the people dying helplessly.
So, returning to her childhood, the happiest past, she looked up at the sky and made up her mind.
no matter how strong the opponent is.
No matter how desperate the situation is unfolding.
I will never give up again from the enemy in front of me.
Because of the weak power,
I wouldn’t do anything cowardly to go past that.
“Laura Dian Rodenberg. That’s my name.”
“……Rodenburg?”
It’s Rodenburg.
Isn’t that a name only allowed for the royal family, the noblest lineage in the empire?
Leon stopped trying to unleash the sword and looked at her with a suspicious gaze.
Then, a familiar gray spear appeared in front of the young man’s eyes.
Tring!
It was a status window with a familiar appearance that he had seen hundreds of thousands of times, but the content was completely different from what the man was familiar with.

1. Laura Dian Rodenberg is the “protagonist” of the novel, “The Princess Becomes a Swordsman Genius.”
2. Laura Dian Rodenburg is a direct descendant of the Emperor of the Rodenburg Empire, a “Princess”.
3. Laura Dian Rodenberg is “The Regressor.”
… … what bullshit is this?
Is that woman a regressor to the princess, if it’s not enough that she’s the heroine of a reverse harem?
I looked at her with a puzzled look.
***
***
The cracked sky like glass shatters like fragments
Throwing up pitch-black darkness
The black fire rising from under the cracked earth
It devours everything on earth without mercy.
this is a nightmare
A world where everything collapses.
With no more opponents left,
A horrific sight with only screams.
okay.
I could only describe it as a nightmare.
An armor that has not been damaged by a long battle.
The black hair, which had been flowing with luster, became frizzy,
The gun’s eyes had already lost their luster a long time ago.
“…”
dump.
The woman sat in place and stared blankly at the crumbling imperial castle.
It is the place where my father, the emperor of the empire, lives,
The main palace surrounded by a rose garden where Her Majesty held hands and walked together.
Although they growl at each other now, Chun-gung (春宮) spent a peaceful childhood with his older brothers who were kind to him.
Looking at the fountain in the courtyard while eating the special strawberry sherbet made by the chamberlain, Hagung (夏宮) seemed to have the whole world.
If you sit on the open terrace and read a book in the cool breeze, you will be intoxicated by the picturesque landscape.
Even the Winter Palace where I laughed and chatted happily while making a snowman with my mother.
A beautiful imperial palace built with the motif of the four seasons.
All the castles there were crumbling to powder.
aaa… … !!
spewing out the endless abyss,
A gigantic monster descended from the jet-black sky and roared.
A jet-black beast with two mouths on one head and sharp hook-shaped horns all over its body.
such a monster
It was trampling on his memories with three pairs of wings spread hundreds of meters in diameter.
“Ahh…….”
In front of that overwhelming fear, the woman despaired.
She has no power to defeat this despair. no strength
In the first place, that is not the kind of existence that can be done with human power.
no. If you do well, if you do very well, it might be possible.
If you gather together the many strong people who have confessed to you so far and take on the challenge together, you might be able to kill that monster.
However, that is a meaningless assumption.
I gave her flowers to say I love her,
Men who wielded powerful swordsmanship and powerful magic,
It’s been a long time since everyone was defeated and died in this war.
