"The loser will follow the will of the winner. And we will make a bet by dueling in the daily match," said Princess Alia.
"Daily match? Does that an you are challenging to a duel, Princess Alia?," asked Irene.
"That's right, because you didn't join the 'Matchmaking Battle', I don't have the chance to duel against you. So I chose this daily match to fight you," said Princess Alia.
"Hmmm okay, but the will that we want if we win this match, can we tell each other now?," asked Irene.
"Okay, I agree. Okay, starting with first. If I win, you have to decide on your partner and join the 'Matchmaking Battle' again, Princess Irene," said Princess Alia.
"Why do you want to join the event so badly, Princess Alia? If I don't join the event, you will automatically be the only candidate to beco the prince's fiance. You don't need to duel with anymore to get the prince," said Irene.
"You are right, if you do not participate in the event I will automatically beco the prince's fiance. But I don't like that. I want to get the prince through the match in the event. And if I win the match, it will feel more satisfying because I managed to defeat you amidst the many nobles who are present to watch the event," said Princess Alia.
"So that's your reason, Princess Alia," said Irene.
"Yes, that's why if I win in the daily match later, I want you to participate in the event again," said Princess Alia.
"Okay, I don't mind your wishes if you win. And now for my wishes if I win...... I want you and your subordinates to stop contacting and my assistant while at this academy. Whether it's chatting, approaching or following, I beg you and your subordinates not to do that to and my assistant again. Do you agree?," asked Irene.
"Did she realize all this ti that my subordinates were following her and her assistanf that's why she proposed this? But whatever wish you want to propose if you win, your wish will not co true," thought Princess Alia.
"Okay, I agree," said Princess Alia while offering a handshake to Irene.
Irene responded to the handshake.
"We will do the daily match later when the lesson is over. I don't mind using the first year arena and when the lesson is over can we et here again?," asked Princess Alia.
"Okay," said Irene.
"Okay then, I want to rest first. I suggest you enjoy your ti with your partner until the match arrives, Princess Irene," said Princess Alia who imdiately left Irene.
".....," Irene was silent hearing Princess Alia's words.

I followed Charles down the stairs and finally we stopped at the A-class training ground.
"This seems like a good place to talk together," said Charles.
"What do you want to talk about, Charles?," I asked.
"About your relationship with Princess Irene? Is it really true? Or is it just pretend?," Charles asked.
It seed like he realized that this relationship was actually pretend, but how could I say 'yes' to him.
"What do you an, Charles? Is it possible that because I'm not a noble like Irene that the truth of my relationship with her is being questioned like this?," I asked.
"No, that's not what I ant," Charles said.
"Then what?," I asked again.
"No, never mind. It's my fault for asking about this. Allow to ask sothing else. Your relationship was only made public today, but how long have you been dating Princess Irene?," Charles asked.
"About 2 weeks," I said.
"Is that so, when you chatted with Princess Irene did she discuss matchmaking or sothing?," Charles asked.
"No, why did you ask sothing like that?," I asked.
"Normally, noble children are always matched by their parents for their family's political interests but I didn't expect that Princess Irene herself would confess you and you two would end up dating," Charles said.
"I see, well with Irene confessing it's proof that there is no matchmaking in her family. She is free to choose her own partner," I said.
"Yes, you are right," Charles said.
"Forgive if I guessed wrong, but are you asking this because you have feelings for Irene, Charles?," I asked.
"No, no. I don't have any feelings for Princess Irene........It's just that I was a little surprised to hear that Princess Irene is dating you, Rid. Princess Irene is a quiet person and doesn't even socialize much when gathering with noble children. So I didn't expect that she now has a partner. Maybe there's sothing special about you that made Princess Irene finally open her heart to you, Rid," said Charles.
"Open your heart to what? even though this relationship is just pretend," I thought.
"I support you Rid to be Princess Irene's partner, maybe you're the only one who can understand her," said Charles.
"Thank you, Charles," I said.
"And I also want to apologize for asking too many questions about your relationship with Princess Irene," said Charles.
"It's okay, I don't mind it," I said.
"Okay then how about we go back to class, the others also seem hungry and want to eat soon," said Charles.
"Okay," I said.
Then we went back to class and when we arrived at class we didn't find them there. As a result, the two of us went straight to the canteen and t them who were eating deliciously, especially Noa.
-
The class ended.
Irene imdiately left the class and went sowhere, followed by Leandra and Lily.
"Where did your girlfriend go, Rid?," asked Noa.
"I don't know, maybe she's on business," I said.
"Didn't you go after her?," asked Noa.
"Irene said that even though we're dating, we don't have to always go out together. I'm allowed to always be with my friends," I said.
"Hmm, it turns out the ice princess is also an understanding person. She doesn't even restrain you," Noa said.
"Well that's how it is, maybe later I'll ask her to co play with us too," I said.
"Wait, if you do that, we'll all focus on watching you being affectionate with her," Noa said.
"You better buy a mirror, Noa. You yourself were affectionate when you asked Lillian to play with us," I said.
"B-but I'm not in a relationship with Lillian," Noa said.
"It's just a matter of ti. Let's end our chat for now, let's go to the arena to do the daily match," I said.
-
I also finished doing the daily match.
"Seriously, from the beginning until now Rid has not lost a single daily match,"
"The ice princess has also not lost a daily match so far,"
"And now they are a couple, they are an unbeatable couple," said the students who were watching my match.
After leaving the arena, I headed to the audience seats.
"Congratulations, Rid," said Chloe.
"Thank you, Chloe, now it's Charles' turn, okay?" I asked.
"Yes," said Chloe.
I looked at Chloe and she seed to be thinking about sothing.
"What's wrong, Chloe? you seem to have sothing on your mind," I said.
"Ah, nothing," said Chloe.
"Is that so," I said.
Then I sat in the audience seats next to Noa.
"Hey, Rid," said Noa who suddenly whispered to .
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"Because you are dating the ice princess and it is already known to the public Also, did you decide to live in the sa dorm as her? Besides, this academy also allows it," said Noa.
"Hmmm I don't know, I don't really think about it anyway," I said.
Suddenly, the arena felt like it was shaking.
"Did you feel it, Rid?," asked Noa.
"Yes," I said.
"It seems like this vibration was caused by soone competing in another arena," said Noa.
"I think so," I said.
I felt Irene's aura upstairs, it seed like she was the one competing there. But I also felt another aura that felt familiar.
-
Then Charles had also finished his daily match and had returned to where we were sitting watching.
"Since Charles is finished, let's do our usual thing," said Noa.
"What is that?," I asked
"Of course, buying food," said Noa.
"Everyday life that doesn't change," I said.
While chatting, suddenly the arena shook again but the vibration was stronger than before.
"What is this?!?!," said one of the students who was surprised because the building was shaking.
Then after a while the vibrations stop.
"The vibration just now was very strong, is the source of the vibration the sa as the previous vibration?," asked Noa.
"I think so," I said.
Then we went to the stairs and there were many students rushing to go upstairs.
"Oh it's Rid, I thought you were watching the ice princess compete," said one of the students.
"No, I just finished the match. What's wrong? Usually you guys aren't this enthusiastic when you see Irene compete," I asked.
"Well normally that's the case, but this ti it's different. The ice princess is currently competing with Princess Alia in the 5th floor arena," said the student.
All of us who heard that were surprised.
"It turns out that the familiar aura I felt ca from Princess Alia," I thought.
We who were curious also rushed to the 5th floor. When we arrived on the 5th floor, there was no sound there, the arena was very quiet. Even those who were watching didn't make a sound. I was curious about what was happening and imdiately looked towards the arena.
I was shocked, the arena was in a ss. The arena was filled with roses and their sharp thorns. So of the roses also looked frozen. But it seed like the reason the audience beca silent was because they were shocked to see soone lying there. They were shocked to see Irene lying there covered in wounds.
