The Grand Duchess Is Defeated Again Today

chapter 9



The princess is still

It has been three years since I was possessed by [The Prince Holds a Sword].

There have been quite a few things going on in the meantime. Let’s take a look at some of the major changes.

“Alber, it’s time for lunch, so please come by then.”

“Okay, Mother.”

Once I’ve completely acclimatized to this place.

When I first possessed it, I pretended not to care and talked coolly, but in fact, my inner circumstances were not like that at all.

Who wouldn’t be surprised if he was possessed by a web novel he liked to read?

Besides, I didn’t even write a 5,700-character long email. I only left one comment saying I was leaving, but I was possessed.

It was a situation where no one could say anything even if I was upset because I was embarrassed.

Humans are also animals of adaptation, and as time passed, all these situations became accustomed to them.

When my mother just called me, if it was not who I am now, but who I was when I first possessed it, it was clear that I would not have been able to answer properly.

“Is it time for lunch already? Then, that’s all for today, Master.”

“You did a great job today, Aaron.”

“I was just doing what was normal.”

Another thing that changed was that I started learning swordsmanship.

Although this novel is said to be a male-oriented romance novel, the romance fantasy was also a fantasy novel after all.

Although the element of magic is not highlighted in the novel, it was a worldview where magic also existed.

Magic also exists, but I wasn’t sure that strange fantasy elements wouldn’t appear, so I thought I had to have the ability to keep my body healthy.

One of the largest aristocratic families, the Valencia family, was suddenly charged with treason because the author was beaten by readers.

Also, I didn’t know if there were any strange and bizarre settings that I didn’t know about.

So I told my father, Count Xernias, that he wanted to learn swordsmanship.

– If you’re a man, it’s good to know about a sword to protect yourself.

I gladly named Aaron, a knight of the Xernias family, as my swordsmanship teacher.

Thanks to that, I took Aaron’s class every morning and practiced swordsmanship like I just did, and now I can go anywhere and be confident enough to protect myself.

Of course, it’s true that it’s not enough compared to the Crown Prince, the protagonist of the novel, or Rebecca, my fiancée.

‘······· Well, not going to be a knight.’

I didn’t even want to make a living here as a knight, so I didn’t want it to that extent.

“Are you going to class after lunch?”

Rather, as Aaron said, what I had to focus on was not the swordsmanship, but the classes I had to take to become the next Count Xernias.

The fact that I had to study boring even before I was possessed here was also frustrating.

– Those who do not work, do not eat. This is our family motto.

– ···.

– So, study properly. son.

Thanks to the experience of having to listen to my mother nagging me for 2 hours after missing a class, I was able to enjoy the class (?).

So, normally, I would have answered yes to Aaron’s question if he was going to class.

“No. I have work today.”

Today was a different day than usual.

When I shook my head to deny Aaron’s words, Aaron nodded as if he had just realized it.

“Today was the day the Valencia family visited, wasn’t it?”

“Uh. I should go and see Princess.”

Upon hearing my answer, Aaron looked at me with envy.

“I’m envious. I don’t know when I’ll ever have someone I love like you.”

“····.”

“I also want to quickly meet a fixed mate just like the master and princess and live happily ever after.”

I neither affirmed nor denied that statement.

Even so, the biggest part of the changes I haven’t explained yet.

“…you’re late.”

“····.”

“Are you afraid that you might lose to me today?”

Because she was my fiancée and my favorite, Princess Rebecca.

***

The day I fed Rebecca the last remaining cake.

That day, I realized my heart.

I fell in love with Rebecca Valencia.

But I couldn’t be honest about my feelings.

Because if I ever revealed that, Princess Rebecca, who had an amazing temper, would grab me and shake me.

So, in order not to get caught, I always put a fight on Rebecca.

Hit the ground, or hit the back of your hand. A game with such a simple penalty.

The content of the victory depended on it from time to time. I’ve never lost before.

Yes, I was a very eager reader of this novel. Because he knew all the characteristics of Rebecca depicted in the novel.

And I was a person who used this point very well in the game.

– Were the princesses afraid of such a thing?

– It may be difficult for the princess.

If I provoke Princess Rebecca in this way and shake her mind, I was bound to win.

But there was one thing I overlooked.

“What are you going to fight today?”

“····.”

Rebecca’s desire to win and pride was much stronger than I thought.

If I had lost every day for three years, my pride would be hurt and I would have stopped doing it now.

Rebecca, who was united with the thought that she would definitely win against me, came to a match whenever she saw me.

‘······ As long as you run into something, it is not a game where you bet on a fight.’

Of course, it was clear that it would be nice to have someone I like always approach me like that.

There was a law that said anything in moderation.

At one time, I thought about losing.

I’m so obsessed with myself because I want to win, so I wondered if my obsession would decrease to some extent if I lost once.

But think of the disgusting look Rebecca will make after I lose.

– Ha, after all, you’re not a good person for me.

I’ve always been serious about winning.

As I said before, I am also a person with a very strong desire to win.

I could never see Rebecca win over me and look so proud.

never.

As I was making up my mind again, I heard Rebecca’s sweet voice.

“Are you listening?”

“··········Yes. I am listening.”

“How are you going to win today?”

“I do not know.”

“Well? Did you just say ok?”

Princess Rebecca seemed annoyed at my vaguely evasive answer.

Seriously, you’ve only lost to me so far, so you must have come here today with the mindset of winning. It was only natural for me to get annoyed when I made a sound like this.

But I also had something to say.

‘······What are you doing?’

There is nothing more to do because we have played so many types of matches so far.

I really had a stellar fight.

Starting with the first snowball fight.

Many types of games, from chess, poker, one card to jenga.

There was no battle that he had never done so much that he even built a stone tower or made a water swallow.

But there was only one kind of match that I didn’t do.

“If there is no match to be made, it is a game with a sword….”

“I don’t.”

It’s a game that uses your physical abilities.

“Are you scared?”

The voice of Rebecca, who always provokes me by throwing swordsmanship like that, continued.

“Yes. I was scared.”

I, too, admitted that I was always neatly intimidated.

No matter how hard I am practicing swordsmanship these days. There was a distinction between what could be done and what could not be done.

If I competed like that, I’m sure I’d lose without being able to hold out for even 10 seconds.

There was no hobby of deliberately fighting vaginas.

“Sheesh.”

Rebecca makes a sound as if it’s a pity.

Even with such an expression on my face, I had a firm resolve that I would never compete with swordsmanship.

After listening to Rebecca’s prompting and pondering for a long time, a good idea suddenly came to mind.

“Princess Princess. How about changing the penalty instead of replaying the matches you’ve played so far?”

“Are you suggesting that we do something else instead of being hit hard when we lose?”

“Yes.”

“········ First of all, I’ll listen.”

I started explaining the wonderful idea I just had in mind to the princess who beckoned me to talk.

“Aren’t the penalties for the games we’ve been doing up to now a nightmare at best?”

“······Yes.”

“Now that we’re at the age where we’ll be having our coming-of-age ceremony soon, I think the night is a bit childish.”

Rebecca nodded, as if she had thought the same to some extent.

“So, from now on, let’s change it so that the loser grants the winner’s wish.”

“Do you mean that if I win, I can make you do what I want you to do?”

“You understand correctly.”

“Okay. I do.”

Rebecca nodded her head to do it right away.

Frankly, I was a little perplexed.

Of course, I thought he would send contemptuous glances, saying, ‘What the hell are you trying to do for me?’

Now, the princess’s expression was that she was already looking forward to what she had to do with me.

“…aren’t you expecting too much? The princess hasn’t won yet.”

“Don’t worry. This time, we’ll definitely win.”

“I haven’t even decided which game to play.”

“It’s okay because I’m going to win whatever comes out.”

The princess’s voice was overflowing with confidence.

If you are an ordinary person, if you are full of confidence like that, you might say, ‘Because you have prepared something like that.’ I might be intimidated though.

I didn’t really think of it that way.

‘Because I say that every day.’

Because it was a line that I can’t even remember how many times I’ve heard that line.

“Then, let’s play chess after a long time.”

“like.”

The first match, with the penalty changed, was decided as a chess match.
