C179: Wolves and Crows (2)
Chapter sponsored bymyosotis. Thank you for your support.
Everyones eyes widened at the words, Its been a long ti, and they looked at Rudger and Freuden in turn.
They were asking with their eyes if they knew each other and it was the sa with Rene who brought Freuden.
Huh? Did they know each other?
Originally, Rene was going to visit the hospital alone but Erendir said he would go with her and on top of that Freuden, who did not fit in with others, said he would also go.
Looking at Freudens attitude of talking to Rudger, it didnt seem like they had t for the first ti. She thought theyve known each other for a long ti..
At that ti, Rudger said in a clueless tone.
I dont understand what youre saying. This is the first ti weve t.
I see. I must have misunderstood sothing.
Freuden responded gently to Rudgers, who clearly drew a line.
If a stranger saw it, it was a reaction that seed to be mistaken because he really saw the wrong person.
Then Erendir stepped up and said.
I ca to see Mr. Rudger and Ms. Selina because they said you were hurt. Heres your present.
Erendir said so and pushed Rene back.
Rene, who suddenly stepped forward, blushed with embarrassnt.
Mr. Rudger. Here you are.
Oh, yes, thank you.
Rudger, who received the basket, left it next to the fruit basket Flora gave him.
Flora, who was watching the scene, was annoyed for no reason.
What? You just said youd take it and didnt say thank you.
Was he discriminating against people? But beyond that, the presence of Freudian and Erendir further distracted her.
Erendir, 3rd princess, likes to ddle, so she can appear here.
That Freuden guy. What the hell is he thinking by coming here?
Basically, Freuden is a man who never moves unless he has a clear goal. The steps of the Grand nobility should be heavy enough to match its weight.
Flora agrees with that, but the place now is not where Freuden would co by any stretch of the imagination.
There must be sothing. Sothing I dont know.
When Flora thought about it, the students gathered in the hospital room greeted each other lightly.
Oh, nice to et you. Ive seen you in class, but its your first ti were talking, right? My na is Erendir.
Yes! My na is Aidan! Nice to et you, senior!
Senior?
Erendirs expression quickly loosened, as she didnt know she would be called senior by anyone other than Rene.
Erendir and Aidans party beca so easily acquainted. To be exact, Erendirs attitude of approaching them in a friendly manner was a problem because she was wary of the word senior.
What is this? I dont feel any dignity. Is she pretending to be close on purpose?
Leo, who belonged to the Liberation Army, was initially wary of Erendir, but based on her loose attitude, he decided that it was unnecessary.
In fact, it is safe to say that the Third Princess doesnt have any power because its all held by her sister the First Princess. Even so, Erendir had the blood of the imperial family.
She looks like a person who cant make friends.
It was a surprisingly accurate decision, but Leo dismissed his idea, thinking, Is that possible?
More than that I cant believe that the imperial princess and the children of two of the three great dukes are gathered in one of these hospital rooms.
Leos eyes naturally turned toward Aidan.
And the unique user of anti-magic.
Next was Iona.
The daughter of a great lineage of the Suins.
Well, Tracys just a talented kid.
She would have been angry if she had heard the overly brief evaluation herself.
And even , an agent of the Liberation Army who hid his identity?
What a strange combination, Leo thought. Still, in terms of his status alone, the Third Princess is the highest.
Oh my! You can call noona more comfortably instead of senior.
Hold on a second! Dont get too close to Aidan!
Seeing Tracy was trying to stop Erendir from approaching the nave Aidan, Leo felt like an idiot for being nervous.

The short but noisy visit ended and Selina, who sent the students away, smiled as if she had enjoyed it.
Hehe. Its been a noisy day.
Thanks to you, I
Well, for that matter, Mr. Rudger didnt really kick the students out, did he? They were even children who ca to see Mr. Rudger this ti.
Thats
Teacher Rudger is also popular with students.
Popular? Rudger didnt think he was that much. The popular one should be Selina since her bed was full of get well gifts.
But I think its all over now.
I ca to see you.
The door rattled open and rylda ca in.
Rudger, who tried to speak, had no choice but to sigh at rylda.
What is it? Sighing at people.
No, its just that I suddenly feel tired.
Are you not fully rested yet? You can rest more.
Thats all right. Im going to get so fresh air.
When Rudger left the hospital room, rylda, who was left alone, looked back at Selina with sparkling eyes.
So Selina.
Yes?
How was it? Huh? Talk to . You two were together.
Well, thatsI.
Selina broke out in a cold sweat at rylda gaze, like a predator trying to eat her prey.
* * *
Rudger left the building and walked moderately nearby. In addition, Selina and rylda seed to have sothing to talk about, so he left them alone.
In addition, Rudger also had an appointnt.
While walking with that thought, he found soone blocking his way and stopped.
You are
Rudgers eyes shone sharply as he recognized his opponent.
Freuden Ulburg.
Freuden, who had his na called, did not give any answer and just stared at Rudger with an expressionless face.
Were you waiting for to co out?
I have sothing to do personally.
Im sorry, but I have nothing to say to you. Go back.
Despite the order, Freuden did not budge and Rudger frowned.
What are you trying to do?
Do you really not know ?
I dont know what youre talking about. Even if youre talking nonsense, you should consider the other person.
Rudger passed by Freudens side as if he didnt have to listen anymore. If they couldnt communicate he would just leave but Freuden spoke.
You hid your identity and beca a teacher, to appear in front of her again.
.
Rudger stopped walking while Freuden turned to look at Rudger and stared at him with a stern look.
What on earth were you thinking by coming here?
Sigh.
A sigh that ca out of Rudgers mouth and Freudian eyebrows wriggled at the action.
Rudger turned his head and looked at Freuden with half-opened eyes.
I thought you were a kid who didnt know anything, did you rember?
Then he raised his lips and made a sneer at Freuden.
Ulburg Puppy.

So what happened?
At ryldas persistent question, Selina couldnt win in the end and had no choice but to confess everything. That she fainted in the flas, and that Rudger jumped directly into the fire to save her.
Oh, my God. Its so romantic!
She liked this kind of story so rylda didnt hide her interest.
rylda, youre not worried about my injury, are you?
No way. Of course I was worried. But looking at the current situation, I didnt need to ask.
Really?
Of course. I was more curious than that.
What are you so curious about?
What happened with Mr. Rudger?
Selina was flustered and stuttered at the unexpected question while rylda smiled playfully at the sight.
There was, right? You cant say it because youre flustered.
Its not like that!
What do you an? There was sothing. You just have to be honest with .
Not yet!
Selina, who shouted in anger, finally realized her mistake and covered her mouth with her hands but it was too late.
Really? Not yet?
Teacher rylda is so clever.
Selina is too naive.
Thats not true. Im not naive!
A person who is not really naive doesnt even talk like that.
.
Selina had nothing to refute, so she just patted the bed with her fist.
So, what happened?
I dont know.
Whats wrong with you? Of course Im asking you how far youve gone with Mr. Rudger.
Its not like that.
You cant fool my eyes. When Mr. Rudger left just a while ago, you looked at him with a disappointed gaze.
Selinas face turned red like autumn leaves at ryldas sharp point and rylda laughed while thinking She is still naive. Of course if she said it out loud Selina would be mad and wouldnt speak for a while.
Selina, its a long-awaited opportunity for the two of you, so try your best.
Honestly I dont know. Ive never done this before.
Selina, whose cheeks flushed red, said hesitantly, as if she had the warmth of a warm spring.
Teacher Rudger is an amazing person. Smart, cool, strong and very popular with students but I can only handle spirits and I always act like a fool.
It was the anxiety in Selinas heart.
She said that she doesnt fit with soone like Rudger instead she was closer to looking up to him. Hes such a great person that he wouldnt even notice soone like her.
I dont deserve him.
What qualifications?
rylda lightly dismissed Selinas concerns.
Selina, youre too insecure. Im sure theres a long line of guys who like you.
What? That cant be true.
Ugh. Have you ever seen such an innocent girl? This is how it feels to put a child on the water.
Im not a child!
And who are you with, what qualifications do you need? Its weird and wrong to argue about that.
Thats.
Anyway, theres only one piece of advice I can give you. Just bump into each other naturally, just like usual. Wouldnt that work?
What do you an, Im usually.
For Selina, ryldas advice was not well received.
Esralda, who used to be her real self, was gone.
And if youre really struggling, why dont you ask for advice?
AdviceOh!
Selina grabbed ryldas hands as if she had an idea.
Then, rylda! Help !
What?
rylda was embarrassed because she didnt know Selina would suddenly be so active.
rylda must know how to win a mans heart!
, ? Huh? Why do you think so?
Teacher rylda is the master of dating!
Huh? The master of dating? ?
According to what I heard you are the queen of society!
rylda was speechless at her words.
No, but its sowhatIts like Im showing off
At first, she didnt want to look cheap, so she pretended to be a little strong. But that behavior ca back like a boorang.
In the first place, I dont know a mans heart!
Although she was now showing off her gorgeous, mature appearance in the past, rylda had a typical image of an outsider, wearing large glasses that covered her entire face and her bangs.
She has never held a mans hand properly, and the number of people she has dated is zero.
The reason why she specialized in her curse magic is because she cursed while watching couples playing together.
How much effort did she put into making a love potion that didnt even exist for the person she had a crush on secretly?
She still sotis thinks that she wanted to die when she rembers the mory of that day.
Can I really give dating advice?
She wanted to decline Selinas request.
But How can I refuse if she looks at with such expectations?
Selinas eager gaze with glistening eyes was sothing hard to refuse and in the end, rylda was forced to raise the white flag.
Huh, hmm. Yes, I see. Let help you.
Wow! Really? That is very thoughtful of you teacher rylda!
What do you an by that?
rylda, who saw Selinas true love, broke out in a cold sweat inside.
There was no turning back now.

There was a chilly air between Rudger and Freuden.
I dont know how long its been. Has it been about 10 years?
It was almost 12 years ago in terms of the number of years.
Was it 12 years ago? You were a total kid at that ti.
At that ti, you were much younger than now, too.
But now you look like an aristocrat. Youve grown up pretty well.
Stop talking nonsense.
Freuden snarled Rudger.
More than that, you didnt answer the question I just asked. Why are you here?
Is there any reason why I shouldnt co here?
A man like youYou have a reason to co here? And in the first place your na wasnt Rudger Chelici.
Youre talking as if you know well.
The wind swept through between the two and Freuden clenched his fist.
How did you approach her?
I dont know what youre talking about.
You thought I didnt know you handed her a magic book and helped her? Do you want to atone for it now?
.
The word atonent weighed heavily on Rudgers chest but Freuden continued.
The enemy who killed her mother with his hands.
