Chapter 95
“As you can see, I haven’t been doing well. Thanks to the Princess in front of , who described as rotten food.”
Philap Montez looked down at with his reddish-brown eyes and continued.
“Throughout my probation, all I could think of was your cold appearance.”
‘So that’s why he’s been confined at ho.’
As I watched him appearing suddenly and uttering nonsense, I leaned on one leg and glared at him.
He was looking down at with a confident, oppressive gaze.
Seeing Philap’s attitude reminded of sothing.
‘Did he take the bait? Did that news reach Philap’s ears?’
Thinking that it was worth confirming, I decided to mix up my words a bit.
… With a way of speaking like that of my younger brother in my previous life.
“You keep thinking about it when it’s not a big deal. Isn’t that even worse? You seem to be beyond rotten now, at a phase where you’re decomposing and becoming insignificant and worthless.”
Even if he had a face that was worth looking at, he should take good care of it.
When I openly clicked my tongue at his face, which was haggard from seemingly being unable to sleep many nights, Philap let out a fake laugh as if it was ridiculous.
“Decomposing? Your word choice is superb as ever. You’re like a gangster from a back alley. But your thods of acting like a bully and provoking only worked the last ti. I’ve been chewing on your words, and I’ve beco resistant.”
“What kind of excessive self-consciousness is this?”
I tapped the back of my stiff neck several tis with the fan and continued.
“Philap, if I were a gangster, I would have punched you in the face. You’re the one who ca to first like a bully and tried to pick a fight.”
“Pick a fight… I’m sorry it looked like that. I ca here to have a productive conversation with you.”
“I’m already engaged in various productive activities, so I can’t add even you.”
Listening to my words, Philap squinted his fiercely torn eyes.
“Various productive activities? You seem to be very proud of your recent social activities and academy achievents, but that’s limited to the magic world. People who use spirits like didn’t even snort.”
“Why would you fart? It stinks.”
“I see you’re bluffing while playing with words.”
(T/N: Philap is using the expression 콧방귀를 뀌다, which ans to snort, while Deborah is using the similar expression 방귀를 뀌다, which ans to fart.)
He looked down at with a fishy smile on his mouth.
“There are countless people who acted as arrogant as you, shone for a while, and then disappeared. Do you think it’s easy to stay in the spotlight while having no factions and a poor reputation in the social world? You just unnecessarily poked a hornet’s nest.”
I shrugged.
“Reputation? What are you talking about? I am the daughter of the Lord of the Wizardry Association. If there is a human with better support than , bring them here. Let’s take a look.”
“Why can’t you understand what I an when you’re giving lectures these days? One mber of the Wizardry Association can’t fully make up for you. If you apologize to for your rude words and behave gently, I can blow so influence from my side.”
“Blow? I don’t like it because you have bad breath.”
As I kept teasing him, rembering my brother’s way of speaking in my past life, Philap’s veins stood on his forehead.
“Will you keep acting like that? I’m the leader of Omicron! In your situation, lying down in front of and begging is not enough!”
He seed to have been holding back but he quickly revealed his fiery personality, his fists shaking.
While gently provoking Philap, I grasped his objective for coming to today.
He ca to to make up for the miserable feeling he felt when he was rejected for the final dance at the Spring Flower Festival.
He was angry because Deborah, who had been chasing him so persistently that he was embarrassed that others would see it, suddenly changed and hurt his pride.
‘I see that you are trying to bring to my knees by giving a sense of crisis. Considering Philap’s personality, I don’t think he’s finding out what I think.’
After grasping the situation, I looked at him.
“Lie down and beg? Why would I? I don’t intend to include you in the plans for my future life, so let’s go each other’s way.”
“Ah! I ca here anyway to look after you as we have an old friendship, but you’re just leaving and acting on your own. I can’t believe you used to act coy in front of .”
“Act coy? Why are you talking about that old story again?”
As he was suddenly talking about the past again, I pretended to yawn.
His eyes twisted at the blatant expression of being bored.
“Why do you talk as if it was a long ti ago? It was only last year that you told you wanted to go to the ball with .”
“Do you know that mushy feeling, like spoiled food that went past the expiration date? I already explained it to you at that ti. You already went past your ti, so it’s over.”
He bit his lips tightly as he stared coldly at and then opened them.
“Yes, I understand that you are acting infinitely inappropriate because I conceded to Mia Vinoche nurous tis and took her around with . I must have offended you. But that young lady saved my life, so…”
“The answer is strange because the assumption is wrong.”
“What?”
“I don’t an to be inappropriate; I always had this kind of personality. And above all, I don’t care about you anymore. I trust that you understand at this point. I’m leaving.”
I turned around and walked towards the guard knight and coachman, who were hesitating because of Philap Montez.
“You harassed Mia! Because of !”
He shouted behind my back.
I looked back at him, dumbfounded.
“Again with that old story? Also, would I look at soone like you when a handso man like Isidor is on my side? Philap, you’re overestimating your charm. Get yourself together.”
“You’re the one who should get yourself together. He’s just a hypocrite who pretends to be a gentleman.”
Philap had a considerable animosity towards Isidor.
Sothing must have happened between the two in the past.
‘Oh. Then nagging him would be better.’
“Hypocrite? I only judge by visible, objective facts. And Sir Isidor is much more handso than you.”
“Did you lose your discernnt due to that bastard’s handso face? Is that why you’re coming out like this? Do you think Isidor is special and amazing?”
“His face is special and amazing. Why would everyone put the young ladies aside and recomnd him to be the flower of the year? Please don’t mind yourself with , and pay attention to your princess, Mia Vinoche.”
I got into the carriage as I had nothing more to say, and Philap scread loudly outside the window.
“You’ll definitely regret what you did today!”
His voice was so loud that my ears were stinging.
“Later, you’ll crawl under my feet and ask for help, Deborah!”
‘I can’t believe he blurted out sothing like that.’
“Please go ho and do sothing about your weird delusion!”
I shouted in a loud voice and lay down on the soft carriage seat.
Philap’s figure, flushed and panting, quickly got farther away.
As I repeatedly opened and closed the fan in my hand, as habitual, I pondered.
‘He doesn’t even know what he’s talking about. Omicron seems to be going as I expected.’
As expected, worker ants move quickly with their food.
To the queen’s eyes.
‘All I have to do now is have patience and wait slowly.’
I massaged my neck, which had gotten stiff from being tense the whole ti.
While wishing I had a massager.
***
Crash-!
Philap, who returned to the mansion with an angry face, threw whatever he could get his hands on to the floor.
The mirror hanging on the wall shattered, and a vase was thrown on the ground and broke, scattering everywhere.
As he uttered violent profanity, the servants trembled and examined his mood.
‘Damn it!’
As the only son of the third generation of a prestigious family, Philap always had the upper hand when it ca to relationships except for his father, who was the number one in the family.
In particular, Deborah and Philap’s relationship had been so clear that he could not and did not accept this situation, which had beco even more perfectly reversed.
Whenever he recalled that the things he had held in his hands for a long ti had disappeared, his stomach suddenly turned upside down and he felt like he was suffocating, so he scread.
“How dare she act as she pleases and go her own way?!”
He put his pride aside and approached her first, but she dared to refuse his offer?
While he was stepping on a piece of glass so that it turned to dust, his vassal told him the news.
“M-Mr. Philap. L-Lady Mia stopped by for a mont. She wants to see you.”
“Mia?”
Still angry, Philap roughly swept up his red hair.
“What happened for her to co here cheekily without even making plans. Tell her to wait.”
“Yes, Mr. Philap.”
If it was before, he would have been glad to hear that she had co first; but now, it had beco insignificant.
Rather than that, he wanted to do sothing about Deborah, who was turning his insides upside down right now.
The red eyes that shone daringly were constantly provoking him.
It was a sensation he had tasted throughout his probation.
‘Let’s see until when she can act like that.’
Philap held a cigarette between his teeth, swallowed his anger, and looked out of the window with a bluish darkness. Then, when the servant recalled that Mia had co, he went down to the living room.
“Is sothing the matter?”
Mia hesitated for a mont at Philap’s question before opening her mouth.
“Please give a chance to present my healing powers at the upcoming Omicron academic conference.”
“You should talk to Lady Emmanuelle, the center of the sorority, about those things. I’m only in charge of the fraternity.”
Philap said coldly.
“It’s because Lady Emmanuelle didn’t give a chance. In return, I’m going to surprise everyone. The Omicron conference will be the most prominent.”
“You always ask to give you a chance.”
And the princess, whom he was trying to give a chance to, was treating him like rubbish.
“… I apologize.”
“This is the last chance I’m giving you as my savior.”
Philap spoke coldly and left.
