I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 268
The side story ‘Father-in-Laws’. Give me your daughters! (4)
Sophia Arden.
A female swordsman called Sophia Sana before marrying into Aden, she was called the heroine of the East at the time.
Her life changed greatly when she married Aden.
The Aden family took over the hegemony of the East with the appearance of Garland Aden.
Gerard Arden, the next head of the family, was evaluated as having a brilliant mind and good business acumen, but his talent with the sword was ordinary.
Of course, a level 2 article is not a low level. Because it is the standard level for high-ranking guardians.
However, among the tribe of knights teeming with geniuses, they lack the charisma to lead them except for the inaction of true geniuses.
In that respect, Sofia Sana is a swordsman who can make up for Gerrard’s shortcomings.
She is a female prosecutor representing the eastern region. As a first-class knight, her reputation as a prosecutor is greater than that of Gerard.
That is how the arranged marriage was concluded. Sofia herself did not have high expectations for Gerard when they became a couple.
After embracing Runia, both of us were busy spreading the Aden style and expanding the dojo business for our family.
Still, Sophia recalls, it was an ordinary, harmonious family.
Catastrophe eventually came.
-Who the hell is that kid?
-……My child.
-no way!
One day, my husband brought me a newborn baby.
There was no need to find out more. He was an illegitimate child.
The husband was living separately outside the house.
It was a straight life.
I am confident that it was an honest life.
So I had no doubt that my husband would do the same.
But that wasn’t the case. He was the only one who kept faith and valued chastity.
Betrayed.
It made Sophia lose strength.
My husband looks at me and cuts off the conversation.
An illegitimate child who is not guilty, but remains as evidence of infidelity.
My child was raised on a piggyback as there was no one to take care of such an illegitimate child.
I turned my eyes away from it all. He lived only for the glory of his family.
-You’re handsome.
A man who brought his daughter one day, saying she wanted to get engaged.
-The face is my favorite. Additionally… there is also the added fun of taking away what your little sister wants.
Until then, Sofia had gently encouraged her daughter.
-Well… I don’t think it’s morally right to take someone else’s lover.
Although it was evidence of hateful denial, Runia’s declaration that she would steal the man that Arisha had in mind was embarrassing.
On top of that, there was the kidnapping of her fiancé at the engagement ceremony…
Sofia was worried for no reason as she saw Runia walking an unstable relationship path.
However, as the days passed, Corin Locke’s reputation soared to unprecedented heights, and eventually Geomje, who had the absolute charisma of the family, made a bombshell statement.
-Lunia and Arisha. I will make both of my children his wives.
After making the declaration, the family’s troops were moved to clash with the southern Dunaref royal family… Sofia felt like she was going out of her mind.
I went to see my husband, whom I had been avoiding for a long time, but he didn’t seem to object either.
-Corin Locke. He is the knight of the sun. The head of the Guardian Association and a special article magazine that follows in the footsteps of my father. If only I could have someone like that as my son-in-law of Aden…
It was not a trend I could go against.
Both sisters, Runia and Arisha, are married off to one man.
Okay, up to this point, I didn’t feel that much resistance.
Although Alisha is my child according to the family register, I have never considered her as my own child, as she is an illegitimate child.
Poor, pitiful child. However, this painful being has no choice but to turn away.
Still, my relationship with my sister wasn’t that bad, so I thought it would be better than a worthless relationship where we take from each other and take things from each other.
Even though she was my child, Runia was also a child who could not escape the culture of Aden.
‘Not two… seven?’
The princess of Dunareff and the royal princess… yes, yes… yes… I can’t quite understand it, but considering the commotion that happened last year, this might be better.
“That Hwaran and the academy’s president, Master Erin Danua, are also there…”
At that moment, one of Sophia’s nerves was cut.
Yes, in the end, men are like that.
Animal-like things that cannot control their lower body.
No matter how much my daughter said she loved him, this wasn’t it.
I couldn’t leave my daughter to live a life like mine, being played by a damn swallow.
“So Sophia?”
However, in Aden, the former party leader’s speaking power is absolute.
Above all, in the East, where strong people pursue self-respect, it was not that reprehensible for a strong man to commit bigamy.
so that.
Sophia Arden… no, Sophia Sana cannot back down. I decided that I couldn’t back down.
“Against Corinne Locke’s marriage. “Hunger strike.”
She decided to go on hunger strike.
I could never accept the playboy named Corin Locke as my son-in-law.
* * * *
I was dumbfounded when I heard about Sophia’s hunger strike.
“Shouldn’t I stop her?”
“…….”
“……..”
Both Runia and Alisha are speechless. For both of them, Sophia’s hunger strike seemed completely unexpected.
“Your father and the elders of the family will try to dissuade you, but…”
“Ma’am… you are still an active first-class swordsman. If you pull out your sword, there are very few people who can stop you.”
In order to subdue Sophia, a first-class knight, without getting hurt, it would have to be at least a semi-special or non-standard item like Garland Aden.
“What about that nobleman, Geomje?”
“He’s not the type to pay attention to household chores. And he’s always been a bit weak towards his mother.”
“You seemed to regard your wife more favorably than the head of the family.”
Yeongtaeng is crazy about that sword… Are you saying he favors Sophia, who has established her swordsmanship and is an excellent swordsman, over the current head of the family?
“Hehe… I’ll go.”
“Are you going to be okay?”
“If you think about it, I’m the culprit.”
In the end, all of this is because of me. I also had to solve it.
………
……
…
Sophia is in the center of the mansion. He was sitting on the hard roadside with a sword next to him, silently protesting.
It’s been several hours already, but my posture hasn’t wavered at all. Her posture gives off a sense of the uprightness of a warrior.
“Sophia…”
“…….”
Sophia opens her closed eyes at the sound of my voice. Although she is now middle-aged and approaching 50, she is young and elegant like Runia’s older sister.
“Corin Locke.”
“…….”
A sharp gaze that resembles Runia’s… no, it resembles Runia’s. It is the same mind’s eye that pierces my center.
“Would you like to talk?”
Sit in front of her. The stone floor was hard and uncomfortable, but I followed Sophia’s example by not having a single problem.
“Is there anything you want to say?”
“You must be the one who has something to say.”
Yes, she showed what she wanted to say with her actions.
“If you would allow me… would you mind?”
“I refuse.”
Sophia’s will was firm. She probably can’t allow her daughter to marry someone like me.
It was a natural reaction for everyone, including Duke Mard.
“Marriage is a sacred thing. It is a contract between a man and a woman and is only established when they respect each other. It must be singular, it cannot be plural.”
Yes, of course you would think so.
There is only one lover that a person can handle. The moment two people become involved, they become tangled.
How much more seven. It’s natural to think that way.
“I think so too.”
“…Do you know that words and actions do not match?”
I know.
“I was hooked on emotions, so it turned out like this.”
“Not everyone can understand. I’m quite aware of this. I also feel sorry. I got caught up in this situation.”
“But… I’m just going to try my best. I don’t want to put everyone in misery.”
At the same time, save my life.
“At first, I made an oath to save everyone, but somehow things went wrong and ended up like this.”
“…Are you really saying that you can’t give up?”
“Yes, no. I can be sure of this much.”
“I thought you were… a more sincere person.”
Did Sophia also view me favorably? In one way or another, he is the type of person who is liked by people older than him.
“Don’t hurt yourself.”
“Even if I don’t give up… as long as my father and husband approve, your wishes will eventually come true.”
She herself doesn’t seem to think this protest will work. Her pitiful attitude seemed pitiful and sad.
As a person who failed to get married… this may have been an action that came out of her sincere concern for her daughter. I couldn’t deny it.
“You… Corin.”
“Please speak.”
“Do you love my daughter Runia?”
“…….”
Both Runia and Alisha are special people to me. And Runia──
* * * *
The night deepens.
I remembered the past for a long time.
6 years ago.
The first time I was possessed by this world.
When I didn’t yet know the madness that Park Si-hoo possessed.
“It’s Runia Aden.”
Runia was the first woman in this world that I had feelings for.
Runia Aden joined after Arisha’s death. Before I met Master, she was my teacher and closest colleague.
She was a wonderful woman.
It was a human image that we couldn’t help but fall in love with.
She was blunt but dedicated, cold but passionate, sharp and tolerant of her colleagues.
The reason I couldn’t get close to her was because she was desperately seeking revenge.
“It’s just me. “There is no one other than me who can relieve that child of his sorrow.”
A half-sister who raised an illegitimate child who was isolated from the family.
A family embracing their younger brother’s body and swallowing their anger.
An avenger who continues a grueling chase in search of a stolen sword.
So I couldn’t get any closer.
Out of sadness, I had no choice but to cheer from behind.
“Won’t you marry me?”
The route by which Alisha survived. Runia, whom I met again there, made an absurd proposal to me: contract marriage.
“What a world…”
I don’t know what will happen. When I think about it now, I think Runia was still kind to me back then.
-smart!
A knock on the threshold. The door opened before I could say anything.
“Were you sleeping?”
“Mr. Runia?”
Runia Aden. She came to my room wearing a white suit.
“Can I come in?”
“…If I say no, will you go back?”
“no.”
Runia enters the room as if it were a given. He has an unwavering and unstoppable personality.
“I… I think I understand, but why?”
“Actions speak louder than words. My mother is so hurt and struggling… I thought, as a dutiful daughter, would you please ease her suffering?”
in short.
“The idea is to create a fait accompli.”
“No…”
Before I had time to say anything, she lay down on her side on the bed I was lying on.
He leans his head on one arm and looks at me with a bright smile.
“You don’t like it? My fiancé.”
“……Absolutely not.”
Who could deny that a beautiful woman of this size loves me, a heroine this stunning?
“It pricks my conscience a little to do something before I even ask for permission.” ”
If it were you. Since you are unnecessarily sincere, I thought you would say yes after getting permission.”
“Because it is a confirmed matter. I will definitely marry everyone. I won’t miss a single one.”
“My fiancée is greedy.”
“It’s a matter of survival as well.”
Runia chuckled because she knew my commandment. Her smile was so pretty that I played with her hair and asked,
“But Mr. Runia. ”
“What’s going on?”
“Actually, I don’t understand most of it. What did you fall in love with, Runia?”
Runia is such an attractive person. I don’t know her, but I knew her for 6 years.
I knew what a warm person she was and what a great person she was.
But in this episode, my contact with her is much worse than before.
“Because he’s handsome.”
“Yes?”
“It’s my taste. You. What you look like and the way you live.”
No, isn’t that the same as the previous episode? What’s the difference between then and now?
“More than anything…”
“More than anything?”
“Because my sister wanted you.”
“.. …..”
These idiot-like sisters…!
“No, really?”
“It’s not a small part. What is my sister’s is mine. As a sister, I have the right to have everything she has.”
Even if it’s someone she loves, Runia adds.
“Really… you know she’s not an ordinary person, right?”
“I’m aware of it.”
The beginning of love is for her sister. A feeling of wanting to steal the opponent! What on earth is wrong with this woman?
Sophia is perfectly normal, but is this a wrong taste at the DNA level flowing through the Arden family?
“Well, I’m quite satisfied that I ended up stealing the player again this time.
” Umm…”
Runia narrows the distance on the bed. Her loose-fitting clothes are loosened, and a mound that cannot be ignored comes into view even if she doesn’t like it. It is no
less large than Marie.
“Huh… ….”
“Why but?”
“Thank God…!”
I was rewarded for being wise at church when I was young!
“That’s pointless. Strictly speaking, aren’t you also a god?”
“There is some room for disagreement on that part.”
I need to consult closely with Estelle and Master. I don’t even feel it yet.
“Then… I need a man and a woman to convince my mother . Should we try to burn down Sangyeoljisa?”
-Gulp!
I was swallowing my saliva and was about to put my hand to her face.
-Knock knock!
-Mr. Corin… Are you sleeping?
Late at night. A second guest came to visit.
