Silence, that's what happened in this arena. Those who had been watching this match or those who had just watched it did not make a sound at all. They were stunned to see what happened in the arena. The ice princess who they had always known was one of the strongest students in the first year because she had not experienced defeat even once, suddenly lay helplessly covered in wounds.
"What's wrong, Princess Irene? I heard that you are one of the strongest students in the first year. Is this all your strength?," asked Princess Alia.
Irene did not respond to Princess Alia's words, she remained lying in the arena.
"Considering the wounds suffered by student Irene, I declare this daily match over. The daily match between Irene Erald San Lucia against Alia Laterza San Quentine, the winner is Alia Laterza San Quentine," said the match supervisor on the 5th floor.
"It turns out it's this easy, I overestimated you, Princess Irene," said Alia.
"The ice princess was defeated this easily,"
"Is this the power of the rose princess?," said the students who were watching the match.
"Rose Princess?," I asked confusedly.
"That's a nickna for Princess Alia. The reason she's called that is because she really likes roses. She loves them so much, she even uses roses as her magic. Do you see the roses growing in the arena? That's her magic, ~Rose Magic~," Charles said.
"~Rose Magic~?, one type of ~Plant Magic~, huh? She has quite rare magic. And looking at the arena that's covered in roses, it seems like she's mastered area magic," I thought.
Princess Alia slowly walked away from the arena. But when she had only walked a few steps, Princess Alia stopped. She saw that Irene was slowly trying to stand up using her rapier as a support.
"This...match...isn't....over....Princess....Alia," Irene said, stuttering.
"Didn't you hear the announcent from the supervisor, Princess Irene? The supervisor already said that this match is over and I am the winner," said Princess Alia.
"This......match.....isn't......over yet," said Irene again, stuttering.
Princess Alia then looked at Irene's face.
"You have a nice gaze, Princess Irene. Even though your condition is so bad, your eyes don't show soone who is going to give up. Are you that unwilling to break up with your current boyfriend? It seems like I have to knock you unconscious so that you realize that you have lost," said Princess Alia.
??- ??Blooming Rose Slash -
Suddenly Princess Alia launched a long-range slash towards Irene. Irene just kept quiet in response to the slash. But the slash suddenly split into two before hitting Irene.
"Oh my, did the prince finally step in to save the princess?," said Princess Alia.
Princess Alia said that when she saw
standing in front of Irene. I was the one who slashed the slash launched by Princess Alia.
"Rid?!?!,"
"Since when was he there?," said the students who were surprised because I was suddenly in the arena.
"Isn't this enough, Princess Alia? The match has been declared over, why did you attack again?," I asked.
"I only responded to your girlfriend's words because she said the match wasn't over," said Princess Alia.
I looked back and looked at Irene. Looking closely, Irene's condition was very severe. On her body there were many wounds that seed to be stab wounds. It seed like they were wounds from the rose thorns launched by Princess Alia.
"Move aside.....Rid.....this.....match.....isn't.....over," said Irene who was stuttering.
"See, as you heard, she still wants to compete in that condition, it's only natural that I launch an attack on her. It seems like she insists on continuing the match because she doesn't want to break up with you," said Princess Alia.
"What do you an, Princess Alia?," I asked.
"It seems like Princess Irene didn't tell you. I do this daily match with a bet. If princess Irene or i win, then the loser will obey the will of the winner. Because I won, Princess Irene will obey my will, which is to break up with you and must return to the event created by the King," said Princess Alia.
"The event created by the King? What she ant must be 'Matchmaking Battle'," I thought.
"Is that so, but I don't agree to break up with Irene," I said.
"What do you an? The result has been determined and I won," asked Princess Alia.
"But you only bet with Irene. If you want to break up a couple's relationship, you must get the agreent of both of them and not one of them," I said.
"Then what do you want?," asked Princess Alia.
"Fight , if you win, I agree to break up with Irene," I said.
Princess Alia was a little surprised
"But I'm a woman, aren't you ashad to challenge a woman to a match?," asked Princess Alia.
"Man or woman has nothing to do with it, I challenged you because I know that you are very strong. I'm even sure that you can beat the male students. So what's your answer, Rose Princess?," I asked.
"Fufufu interesting, it's true what you said if j want to break up a couple's relationship, it must be with the agreent of both of them first, it would be rude if I only bet with Irene but not with you. Okay, I accept your challenge. If I win, you agree to break up with Irene but if I lose what do you want?," asked Princess Alia.
"Do what Irene asks if she wins when you bet with her," I said.
"Are you sure? You even asked to follow Princess Irene's wishes," said Princess Alia.
"Yes, I'm sure," I said.
"Alright then, the match will be held tomorrow after the academy lessons and I don't mind using the first year arena. I'll wait for you in front of the central building to pick
up before the match," said Princess Alia.
"Alright," I said.
"Then I'll excuse myself. Please heal Princess Irene's wounds first and then be affectionate with her. Who knows this might be the last ti you'll be affectionate with her," said Princess Alia.
Princess Alia then left the arena.
"Did you hear that? Tomorrow Princess Alia and Rid will compete, this is a big match. Tell the others to liven up the arena," said one of the students watching.
They sounded excited hearing this.
I approached Irene and held her.
"......Rid.....," said Irene.
"Don't talk yet, Irene," I said.
While I was holding her, I cast healing magic on her.
- Camouflage Healing -
Irene was surprised by what happened to her body because her body suddenly recovered.
"My body is healed? Did you do this, Rid?," asked Irene.
"Yes, but please keep pretending to be weak because I only healed your body but not the scars that are attached to your body. I don't want many people to know that I can use healing magic," I said.
"Okay," said Irene.
"I will take you to the treatnt area in the middle building to trick people who don't know that you have actually been healed," I said.
"Okay," said Irene.
"But since you are my partner, is it okay if I carry you?," I asked.
"Just do it, after all we are a couple," said Irene.
"Okay," I said.
I carried Irene like I was carrying a princess, even though she is actually a princess. Then I walked out of the arena.
"I apologize Rid," said Irene.
"Apologize for what?," I asked.
"Because you involved
and Princess Alia's problem," Irene said.
"It's okay, relax. Your problem is also my problem, after all we are a couple, right?," I said.
Irene just kept quiet hearing that but I could see a small smile on her lips. When I t my friends, I asked them to go buy food first and I would catch up with them later. They obeyed and went first while I took Irene to the treatnt room in the middle building. Leandra and Lily also ca with . When I carried her for the first ti and along the way to the treatnt room, many students were surprised and fascinated when I carried Irene. And because of that, the students' views increasingly believed that Irene and I were a couple.
-
That night, in a dorm room.
Princess Alia was seen communicating with soone using a communication crystal.
"Princess Irene is in a relationship with soone you say?," asked the person.
From the person's voice, it could be known that the person chatting with Princess Alia was a man.
"That's right, but after knowing that I imdiately challenged her and bet that she would break up with her partner and return to the 'Matchmaking Battle' if I won," said Princess Alia.
"So what was the result?," said the man.
"I managed to win but I still have to compete against her ??partner, because he didn't agree if I only bet with Princess Irene. So I agreed and we will compete tomorrow," said Princess Alia.
"Is that so, what is the na of Princess Irene's partner?," asked the man.
"Rid Archie," said Princess Alia.
"Rid Archie? Ah, the person who beat Javier in the entrance exam so he didn't get into the academy this year. You have to be careful, Alia," said the man.
"Don't worry, father. I will be careful against him," said Princess Alia.
It turned out that the one who contacted Princess Alia was her own father, Duke San Quentine.
"Don't overdo it in fighting him. Don't let other people know that you are a 'subject' too," said Duke San Quentine.
"Okay, father," said Princess Alia.
"No matter what happens, Princess Irene must continue to participate in the 'Matchmaking Battle' to smooth our plans. I await good news from you," said Duke San Quentine.
"Yes, father," said Princess Alia.
The communication crystal stopped glowing.
"Just watch, Rid Archie. I will definitely defeat you tomorrow," said Princess Alia.
