The Chosen One Was Me, Not You

chapter 29



29 – {family}

{Family}

The news that the elite assassins were aiming for Theodore’s life and raided to kidnap Yuria reached the Dukes of Skyroad and the Arsene dukes.

Of course, the imperial family of the Arkhan Empire planned to protest loudly about this. It was even said that William Artin, who sent these assassins, mocked Yuria Arsene, the princess of the Arsene duchy, by throwing insults so rude that she did not even want to mention it.

“This is truly beyond imagination.”

The first thing the Duke of Skyroad said with a wry smile after hearing the report was this.

William Artin’s actions were beyond imagination.

The rumors may not be accurate since it is from a foreign country, but even rumors say that I am a fool among fools, and this has crossed the line.

It was absolutely unacceptable to send assassins to the students of the Arkan Empire who had gone to the Britannia Empire, especially the successor of the Duke of Skyroad and Geumjeokyeop of the Duke of Arsene.

“I will never forgive you. You dare to send an assassin to my son. I will take this seriously.”

The Duchess of Skylord is seen clenching her fists with her face filled with rage.

Her blue hair quivered, and her blue eyes glowed with rage.

“I feel the same way.”

The Duke of Skylord nodded in agreement.

When they first met, the two couples still remember Theodore as if it were yesterday, when they were young, stained with all sorts of negative emotions such as despair, sadness, resentment, and hatred.

Even if it wasn’t so, when he went to the Britannia Empire, he was the Duke of Skyroad who was very worried that Theodore’s painful memories would not come to mind. Even though he says he doesn’t care, and in fact he doesn’t care much, his parents’ position is that he can’t help but care.

“Although he’s a son who will take care of himself… But as a parent, when your son is attacked by assassins, you can’t just let it go.”

Theodore sent a separate letter from himself, asking him not to escalate this matter too much.

In the letter he sent, he wrote about how he was spending his time preparing for his first class at Minst Academy, but there was something that caught his attention.

“But honey, I don’t think Theo will like it, so I guess I’ll have to be careful not to cancel the study abroad part.”

“I know.”

The Duchess of Skyroad strongly protested against the Britannian Empire and the Minst Academy, but at the same time expressed agreement with her husband that she would not have Theodore’s study at the Minst Academy canceled.

It was because Theodore himself wrote down the request in the contents of the letter.

“But no matter how confident she is in her skills, she was attacked by an assassin, ha ha! She is not at ease as a mother.”

“But don’t worry too much, Theo won’t get hurt, and since he’s a fast-calculating kid, he won’t take any risks. Whoa~”

The Duke of Skyroad was comforting his wife, but he himself was sighing.

He knew it in his head.

Theodore Skylord, though not their real son, was a son and heir whom he loved like a real son. He was strong.

It is unknown in the world, but his terrifying talent was at a level that transcended common sense befitting the chosen one, and the combination of his venomous efforts and the results of his numerous experiences accumulated on his own led to his current evaluation of his skills being rather reduced by the public. There was a feeling

However, as a parent, no matter how strong a son is, if you think rationally, you will be worried about useless things.

Worries such as whether I will eat well or whether I will get hurt are automatically raised if I do not see them in front of me.

“More than that, the part that Theo is teaching Princess Yuria is more troublesome. On top of that, you made William, who was aiming for Princess Yuria, impotent! He’s not a kid to care about so much unless he gives affection.”

“That’s right. My kid looks like an arrogant genius, but in reality he’s soft-hearted and affectionate.”

“That’s why I’m worried. Whoa~”

The Duke and Duchess of Skylord knew better than anyone else the true nature of Theodore Skylord, who seemed like an arrogant genius because he was excellent in every way. Having watched Theodore for 11 years, from when they were 10 years old until now, the two could be proud to know him second only to Theodore himself.

“It seems like he’s starting to show affection to Princess YuRia, so I’m happy, but it also takes a long time. I’m more considerate of those who give me affection once, and I’m a kind child. I wonder what to do if I get hurt.”

“Still, it’s fortunate that Princess Yuria isn’t the kind of woman who would hurt that child. She’s chosen as her fiancée, but that’s okay.”

Just by looking at Theodore’s attitude towards the Duke and Duchess of Skyroad and Judith, you could tell how weak he was. He was always a sweet and kind brother to Judith, and he did almost all of Judith’s requests.

“I wonder how she broke down the wall of a child who deliberately drew a line for her so as not to give affection.”

“Me too. I don’t think Theo wouldn’t give up easily.”

And the couple of the Duke and Duchess of Skyroad were curious about how Yuria Arseiin got over the wall set up by Theodore, but it would be an unknown problem unless they directly checked it.

“Then I guess I’ll have to go protest.”

“I’m coming with you. If you mess with our son… It shows that the Duke of Skyroad doesn’t stand still.”

Fiery anger was burning in the eyes of the two as they talked about their son. Even if he wasn’t the slightest threat to Theodore, touching him would show that the Skylord duke would not stand still.

The butler explained to Judith that Theodore was attacked by assassins.

“Your brother was attacked?”

Judith tilted his head in puzzlement.

‘Are those people stupid?’

Judith had no idea how strong Theodore Skylord would be.

However, he knew what a wonderful and wonderful man his proud brother was, who was handsome, talented, and even kind.

Judith thought that if her brother put his mind to it, he could do anything, and Judith was genuinely happy that such a person was her brother.

But only assassins dared to attempt to assassinate Theodore Skylord, his own brother?

“Yes, my lady. The Duke and Duchess went to the imperial court to lodge a complaint with the Britannian Empire. They said they intend to file a complaint directly through the imperial family’s contact network.”

“What happened to the idiots who tried to assassinate your brother?”

“Yes, it is said that the Bocchan personally captured all of them and sent them to the imperial prison of the Arkan Empire.”

“I see…”

For Theodore, she was Judith, a charming and lively younger sister, but she was once the princess of the Duke of Skyroad.

She knew that the world was not clean, and she was well aware of what her brother, Theodore, had been through in his childhood before he was adopted into the Skylord duchy.

Of course, her class time was terribly boring and boring, but once she took the class forcibly, she had basic common sense.

That’s why I roughly guessed what the assassins would end up with.

But she didn’t sympathize with the assassins for that.

‘Even though there was no way they could have killed their brother in the first place, they are fools who didn’t know that… The crime of trying to kill my brother deserves death.’

And Judith was already in the mood to see Theodore’s face.

“I believe that my brother will do well in anything, but… Haa~”

The butler asked Judith, who sighed.

“Are you worried about the boy?”

At the butler’s question, Judith laughed and shook her head.

“No! Fools like that can’t be a threat to oppa! More than that, I’m more excited to see what kind of love story oppa and YuRia unnie will have! Don’t you?”

And Judith added with a bashful laugh.

“I think it would be great if YuRia unnie became our Si-unnie. What does her grandpa think?”

“I agree with the lady’s opinion. And coincidentally, the duke also said that the young master seems to have become close with Princess Yuria.”

“Oh, really?!”

The 15-year-old girl had an intriguing smile, her eyes twinkling and shining.

“If I get in touch with my brother, I have to ask him!”

And I wanted to see her proud brother’s face through a video.

* * *

Unlike the Duchy of Skyroad, who was at least calm, the Duke of Arsene was upset.

“Yuria was targeted by assassins?!”

The Duchess Arsene burst out in amazement.

As the mother of two sisters, YuRia and Lilia, she possesses a beauty that is appropriate for the expression of borderline color, as we can see where their beauty comes from.

But that’s why, in her youth, she fell in love with her beauty and courted her countless times to finally succeed in marriage. Wanted to soothe

“But… Theodore said he caught all the assassins in the first place. And she even swore to me that she would protect Yuria even at the cost of her own life… So you don’t have to worry about Yuria’s safety…”

“You! That’s what they say! Yuria was attacked! Oh my God! And what? Are you trying to kidnap and rape Yuria? We have to go to the Britannian Empire right away and tear William, that bastard limb from limb! “

“Ji, calm down!”

Duke Arsene was sweating over trying to soothe the exploding Duchess of Arsene.

And Lilia, who heard all the facts together, was paying attention to another part.

“Dad, YuRia unnie wasn’t hurt at all, right?”

“Yes, they said they never saw the faces of the assassins. And William, they said they destroyed his genitals and made him a eunuch, so he didn’t have to worry anymore.”

“Ha! It’s Prince Theodore as expected. I like the way it’s handled!”

The Duchess of Arsene smiled slightly satisfied, as if she liked that part.

“But! I can’t just let this happen! From the beginning, I was against Yuria going to such a distant place! I’ll bring her to you right now!”

It seemed that the Duchess of Arsene was going to take this opportunity to bring Yuria back to the Arkan Empire. However, that was the story that Yuria least wanted.

‘Damn it, she said that Yuria would ask her to persuade her somehow.’

According to Yuria’s words from Theodore, she was hoping that her father, herself, would somehow convince her mother.

Duke Arsane swallowed tears inwardly, saying that she would probably suffer until she died, but she wondered if she should not just bring YuRia.

Then it would be comfortable, but the problem was that the daughter was stubborn.

‘Is this the sorrow of the head of the family?’

Caught between wife and daughter to death, Duke Arsane set his sights on his youngest daughter, Lilia. Even though she is 15 years old, she is so beautiful that she calls her a miniature version of Yuria, and always smiles spontaneously at the fact that her own daughter is so pretty and cute.

And unlike her eldest daughter, Yuria, she has many charming aspects, so unlike her eldest daughter, who gives her a sense of trust, it made me understand why her youngest is lovable…

“I’m so envious of her sister… To think that Prince Theodore protects her sister and protects her like that… She should replace her fiancée with her sister as soon as possible…”

Her youngest daughter, who was already overly blinded by her first love, had little interest in her father’s gaze.
