The Golden Sun of the Academy

Chapter 94

Beauty

Behind the curtain at the party.

He brushed his curly blond hair and looked at the man in front of him.

She knew who he was, too, from information that had just been implanted directly into her brain.

Fernando.

The third prince of the neighboring country of Aragon.

However, now that all of his older brothers died suddenly, he is the only heir to the throne of Aragorn.

Isabel’s childhood friend and current suitor.

“Princess Isabel. Would you please hold my hand?”

Fernando, who kneeled on one knee in front of him and politely extended his hand, was strangely disturbing.

In the meantime, he found his right hand moving towards the hand he had reached out to him.

He looked down at his right hand, which had been stretched out unconsciously, which was why he slowly reached out and retrieved it in a hurry.

-Isabelle’s will works hard on you.

“Ugh… … .”

Seeing her hand move against her will, she felt uncomfortable. Something is wrong.

A strong headache overtakes me. With my left hand, I firmly grasped the right wrist that was being sucked into his hand as if it were drawn by gravity.

‘Hold that hand right now. What are you doing?’

I squeezed it so hard that the blood didn’t flow through, so my normally white skin went from dark red to pure white.

“… … Isabelle?”

Looking up at Lee Yu-ra, who grabbed her wrist and brought it to her chest, Fernando frowned.

Between the small furrowed eyebrows, Lee Yu-ra’s wandering eyes could be seen dimly, frowning.

Not understanding, he bit his lip.

“Why the hell… … ?”

Listening to his voice resounding in the darkness, Lee Yu-ra shook her head.

The softly audible classic now ran toward the climax of the song.

The thumping beat quickened, and the light coming through the slightly open curtains clearly separated them.

And at that moment, a voice separated them.

“Isabel! When I asked where he was, he was here. You’ve been looking for it for a long time.”

“majesty… … !”

Behind him, he heard the footsteps of the person he had just spoken to.

It was a voice that had brought only annoying news every time I heard it for the past few days, but it was just as nice to see it now.

The breath that had been blocked was only then slightly cleared.

The right hand, which had been trembling for a while, began to tremble for another reason.

“Meet His Highness, King Leopold… … .”

“oh-! Prince Fernando was there too.”

In that moment, Fernando straightened his wrinkled expression and bowed his head toward the old king.

The corners of the king’s mouth trembled as if he was holding back something.

The king, who had been fixing his long mustache for a while, looked at Fernando and continued.

“It’s time for the princess to go on stage, so won’t the prince return to her seat too? It’s crazy from what I’ve seen, because if those idiots outside see you meeting like this, it’s obvious that they’ll complain.”

“… … I’ll follow Your Highness’ words.”

Fernando obediently obeyed the king’s decree to celebrate his guests, but he did not forget to say a last word while looking back at Lee Yu-ra.

“Isabel, I want you to listen to what I said. Because I can make you happy.”

“… … I’ll think about it.”

Fernando, who kept looking back at Lee Yoo-ra as if he couldn’t bear to fall, finally opened the door behind him and went out.

– Knocked up.

“Is that why you decided on that?”

As soon as he heard the sound of the door closing, the king smiled and asked Lee Yu-ra.

She didn’t miss the subtle expectation mixed with his question.

I thought that was the reason.

Will he really be my partner – Geum Taeyang?

Fernando, with such a strong connection to Isabel, was not without possibility.

but… … .

“… … no. Nothing has been decided yet.”

“okay… … ?”

The king, who had been smiling kindly in the dark, stood under the beam of light coming through the curtains.

For an instant, his distinct features were shadowed.

The old king’s eyes were shining ominously.

Seeing that, Lee Yu-ra couldn’t help but nod her head inwardly.

It was because Mr. Lee’s expression was often seen in the Senate.

Isabel was tired of that face too… … .

A thick shadow along the high bridge of his nose covered half of the king’s face.

The corner of his mouth, hidden by his mustache, was raised sharply.

“You are also my daughter. I know very well that you won’t get what you pay for if you fall for a fool so easily.”

The reason why Lee Yu-ra hesitated was because of the question, ‘Is he really the golden sun?’ … .

“Yes, Your Highness.”

He nodded his head right now.

“Isabel, I want you to think twice about why I did your favor.”

here or out. I’ve always been in that role… … .

I swallowed the sigh that reached my throat with reason. Not now.

Because there was no reason to fly outside of his eyes.

In addition, Isabel’s body did not reject King Leopold’s words.

“As a princess of a royal family… … . It is sold at the highest price and contributes to the kingdom.”

“okay. You remember it very well. That is your duty.”

The king’s face as he stroked his handsomely grown mustache was disgusting.

“I know very well that Prince Fernando met you every time he came. The reason I pretended not to know was that I wanted the bodies of nobles in the kingdom to become hot… … .”

I held my breath and turned my head, feeling that if I looked into the king’s shiny eyes, I would get sick.

“… … Unexpectedly, he did well enough.”

Although he had a support he could rely on.

Isabelle.

she wasn’t

The royal castle itself was like a cage to imprison her.

“Can I expect your choice?”

“… … yes, father I will not disappoint you.”

“Yes, that is my good daughter. come on out A party needs a protagonist to live up to its excitement.”

Leopold nodded, then turned around with a satisfied smile, wrinkled eyes.

When his face disappeared, Lee Yu-ra was able to exhale.

He murmured sadly, “This is why he collapsed in his seat in the darkness left alone.” I felt like I was going to burst into tears.

“Geumtaeyang, if I really find it, I will kill you… … . Where the hell are you… … ?”

It’s like she doesn’t care what she thinks or how she feels. From beyond the curtain, he heard the king’s voice calling his name.

“It’s time to introduce you to my long-awaited daughter-. Isabelle! Show me your face.”

Responding to the voice, Lee Yoo-ra – Isabel – stood up from her seat and the corners of her mouth went up brightly.

The light reflected from the chandelier poured down on her face in a blinding, shattering brilliance.

* * *

The nobles of the Adriatic kingdom clung to Fernando, who came out after receiving an order from King Leopold from behind the curtain.

They wanted to talk to the heir to the throne of Aragorn for their own purposes.

“Prince. This time, my family is going to do a business in the Aragorn kingdom, but if the prince helps, part of the income… … .”

“Prince. In our county family… … .”

“Prince… … .”

“Prince.”

Each and every one of those who were talking to Fernando right now could be called great nobles, and were noble enough to establish a small kingdom if they became independent right away.

But Fernando didn’t have the nerve to focus on them.

“If you discuss that with Count Armada, who came with me this time, you should be able to hear a good answer.”

While dealing with the aristocrats clinging to him jingly, he glanced up at the curtains located on the high platform in the center of the party hall.

damn… … You can deal with old people like this even in the kingdom.

The reason why he, the heir to the throne of the country, was polite to King Leopold was only because of Isabel.

With her, even the old king would be part of the family, so there would be no need to blush.

If we benefit each other, we benefit. there will be no harm

“Anyway, the princess is late.”

Fernando’s ears were focused on the subject of a conversation with a nobleman nearby, and his nerves were on edge.

Come to think of it, all the people who were farting in front of him were competitors.

Thinking so, they suddenly looked like leeches.

soon calmed down

no Now that you’re going to be the king of Aragorn, wouldn’t it be better than having no connections with nobles from other countries?

As long as it didn’t get on his nerves, Fernando decided to treat them with a smile.

“The protagonist of the party comes only when the atmosphere is ripe. Don’t be too impatient.”

Fernando nodded his head at the aristocrat’s words that seemed to be an answer.

Surely she was the main character of this ball.

Okay, let’s have some fun.

Then, someday it will come out.

Only after the old king appeared, the nobles’ farts moved from the prince of a foreign country to the king of their own country.

In front of the king, the nobles seemed to weigh their pride and the benefits of bowing down to the king for a while. It immediately started wagging its tail.

How much effort did the king have to crack down on dogs in the house, and how much doggies had to bite off even more chewing gum.

The King quietly raised his hand.

When he raised his hand, the conductor of the orchestra stopped his baton, and the nobles stopped talking and became quiet, as the music that covered their ugly conversation disappeared.

the sound is dead

The old king quietly began to brush the beard that covered his mouth.

Through his thick beard, the King’s benevolent voice, like a restaurant uncle, came out.

“I know very well what you came here for. Probably most of the people who came with a swollen heart, and there are also people who came there for experience. If it’s not that, there will be people who came just because they like the party.”

At the king’s words, the nobles looked up at him with their eyes shining.

After a brief pause, the king chuckled.

“I will introduce you to my daughter and the main character of the party-. Isabelle! Show me your face.”

summoned the main character.

Everyone’s eyes at the party were focused on it.

Fernando also couldn’t get out of that inertia. No, I didn’t get out of the way.

“oh… … !”

“princess. You are the treasure of the kingdom.”

The nobles did not hide their exclamation when they saw Princess Isabel emerge from the curtains on the high platform.

Isabel, dressed in an elegant white dress, was worthy of their admiration.

Fernando, who was quietly raising his glass, focused on her.

The hem of the long dress was not excessive.

Rather, it only serves as one of the elements that add to her beauty. It harmonizes with the smooth curves that get narrower as you go up.

It wasn’t vulgar to the moderately dignified chest. It goes well with the color pure white, creating a strange sense of immorality.

With a soft smile on her lips, she was the Isabel I’d seen every year.

Seeing her smile, Fernando felt his heart race. How long have you been waiting for Isabel?

Now that she’s here, it’s time to enjoy the highlight of the party… … .

Fernando, who was appreciating Isabel’s beauty in a small place, felt strange in her face. Everything was harmonious in her appearance, but there was only one thing.

Something that didn’t suit him was caught in his field of vision.

The source of her reluctance is her eyes.

Dead eyes were ruining her beautiful face.

Isabel’s eyes were not smiling at all as she looked around the party.

But I saw hope in her eyes.

There was a small hope crouched in the corner of Isabel’s eyes as she looked over the party.

It must have been because he hadn’t found himself yet.

I can breathe life into her dead eyes.

So confident, Fernando looked fiercely into her eyes.

Isabelle, I’m here. That I, who promised you happiness, was here eagerly waiting for you.

Has his innermost heart been reached?

The moment her eyes slowly turned towards Fernando.
