The Chosen One Was Me, Not You

{Putting the truth in front}

The emperor of the Britannian Empire felt that the time was approaching when he had to make a decision with the truth he had been ignoring up until now.

“That’s a headache.”

Even if it wasn’t Louise’s report, I couldn’t help but feel strange just looking at the announcement made today by the Duke of Artin.

‘Is it really necessary to announce the death of Theodore Artin, who went missing 11 years ago?’

The answer was that no matter how much I thought about it, there was no such thing.

William Artin had already been the heir to the Duke of Artin for 11 years, and his atrocities were so uncontrollable that even the Duke of Artin could not stop him.

‘William’s sudden action means he’s feeling uneasy.’

Looking at a country’s emperor, at least to some extent, his head was bound to roll.

Although it is unavoidable to develop a short-sighted aspect when sitting in the seat of an emperor, in the eyes of the general public, he has transformed into an unknown being who behaves short-sightedly in some aspects and sharp and sharp in others.

‘It is said that Duchess Artin cried while calling Theodore Skylord Theodore, and that this is happening is even more suspicious.’

It was what I thought the other day, but if Theodore’s true identity was Theodore Artin, there was a high possibility that he was the real chosen one.

And if he was the chosen one, all the diplomatic privileges that the Britannian Empire would enjoy in the future would be gone.

And now, with Theodore Artin officially being treated as a dead person, if his identity were to be revealed, the blow to the Duke of Artin would not be light by any means.

‘Perhaps it could be ruined.’

No matter how long they say they have a long history, the Duke of Artin, who leaked the Chosen overseas, would inevitably be destroyed.

And the emperor, who was concerned about public opinion calling the imperial family responsible, prayed that the princess Louise would appease Theodore by any means in the present situation.

‘Even if he’s not the chosen one, it’s just that he’s got a talent.’

In the report Louise posted, the abilities that Theodore Skylord showed off when he came to Minst Academy were written down.

It has been confirmed that the abilities he showed at the rumored J-Ha Academy are not false rumors but the truth.

“Even if he’s not the chosen one, he’s a talent that won’t be a problem if you make him the husband of the princess and give him a separate title.”

However, considering the position of the heir to the Duke of Skyroad, the title that should be given at least was that of a duke.

Originally, if he was Theodore Artin, he thought of handing over the title of Duke Artin to him, but it turned out to be an unusable plan because of William.

“William Artin…”

In order to overcome the current situation, the emperor thought that he might have to get out of the frame he had been set up so far.

Yuria herself was a bit surprised by her own action of holding Theodore’s hand.

But she wouldn’t let go of her hand.

‘This is nothing compared to what Prince Theodore did.’

That thought automatically popped into Yuria’s head.

Compared to the way Theodore put his hand on her shoulder and hugged her, or the way he hugged her after class in the morning, holding his hand wasn’t a big deal.

Yuria, who thought that way, felt that her thoughts were somehow childish, and she felt embarrassed.

‘What the hell am I thinking?’

And I could feel her heart beating fast.

Yuria’s gaze carefully examined Theodore’s expression.

But Theodore smiled lightly and said nothing, just gently holding her hand.

‘Boo, I’m ashamed… ‘

She was ashamed of what she had done impulsively.

But at the same time, Yuria was aware of the direction of her feelings, and she was already in the stage of acknowledging and accepting them, so she didn’t let go.

“I, Prince Theodore. I don’t think I’ll give up on the other side…Are you okay?”

“Yes, I certainly won’t give up. And it looks like something pretty big is about to happen in the near future.”

The big thing Theodore was talking about was the process of proving his identity.

Even just looking at William’s unreasonable behavior and Princess Louise’s reaction, Theodore’s truth was already in front of their noses.

“I feel even more sorry for you. Now that you’ve become embroiled in my personal affairs.”

Theodore apologized again.

Theodore’s apology was still a bit unfamiliar to Yuria, but it was understandable considering that this was his original character who opened her heart.

‘I’m unlucky, but… The reason I didn’t give affection was because I was weak in affection.’

Since she knows for herself that once she gives affection, she is the type to give affection deeply, so she must have kept a distance while wearing a mask like that.

She didn’t know how to accept the fact that she had crossed the wall he had set up without even realizing it. To be honest, she herself was still confused.

But she felt that one thing was clear.

‘Now is better than before.’

Theodore’s attitude now was better than the way he treated himself before.

That fact alone was a truth that could not be denied no matter what other details were brought.

“Then I’ll have to go to class soon.”

“Yes, I think we’ll start soon.”

Now it was time for the afternoon class to begin.

The afternoon class was a physical fitness class that took place in a large open space.

Because of that, the place that served as the classroom for this class was an empty lot, not the inside of a building.

“Two arms are not the only thing that is important to properly wield a sword! The lower body, which will support the body while using the sword, must also be trained!”

When a professor with a muscular physique eagerly spewed out his passionate speech, most of the students were showing a disgusted reaction.

The class itself was quite popular.

For the swordsmanship department students who like to be active, it was better to run and swing their swords instead of sitting in their seats.

Swinging a sword for several hours a day was something I had done while at home before coming to Minst Academy, so there was nothing difficult about it.

‘I used to do it often.’

Yuria also understood well what the professor was saying.

Since childhood, she not only worked hard to improve her stamina, but also repeated her swordsmanship moves countless times. She looks thin from the outside, but she is actually quite confident in her stamina. .

At the second academy, she was pushed to the second place because of Theodore, but at the time of her first year at the second academy, being second in the swordsmanship department meant that she had the best skills.

It meant that he excelled not only in swordsmanship but also in many aspects such as physical strength.

“So today I’m going to test the stamina of the two new international students there.”

“I don’t think that’s necessary.”

Theodore said calmly.

“What?”

The professor seemed taken aback by Theodore’s answer.

“Ah, yes. You are that Theodore Skylord! You are the heir to the Arkan Empire’s Skylord family, but now you are just my student!”

“That’s right.”

“By the way, are you saying that to the professor you just saw?”

Theodore shook his head.

“No way. I know the professor isn’t wrong. It’s just that my physical strength is superior to the professor’s.”

Professor Burrock, the instructor in charge of the fitness class, seemed to feel that Theodore’s words were arrogant.

“Yes. Are you acting arrogantly because you defeated Professor Benjamin with swordsmanship?”

Professor Burrock, confident in his physical strength, frowned at whether Theodore looked like an arrogant genius obsessed with his skills.

However, Yuria knew that Theodore’s words sounded unlucky, but they were true.

In fact, during the physical training class in the first year of Jha Academy last year, YuRia and Theodore received a class in which they wore heavy objects of the same weight all over their bodies and then endured all of them with pure physical strength without using energy. There were times

At that time, Yuria was on the side of enduring better than her other students, but in the end, she couldn’t stand it and collapsed at the limit of her physical strength.

But Theodore didn’t look tired at all.

Even considering that he basically has stronger physical strength than the female Yuria, he was surprisingly sweaty and didn’t show any signs of exhaustion.

Regarding her stamina, Yuria still vividly remembers answering to the professor at the time, “The thing I needed most when I was young was stamina, so it’s only natural.”

“Really? Then, do you have the confidence to show how great your stamina is?”

Theodore did not escape Professor Burrock’s provocation.

“I can show you anything.”
