The Peace In A Beautiful World
Chapter 94: The Bet Between the Duke's Daughter

"The loser will follow the winning will. And we will do the betting by dueling in daily matches," said Amelia's daughter.

"Daily matches ? Does that mean you're challenging me to a duel, Amelia's daughter?" asked Irene.

"That's right, since you didn't join ~Matchmaking Battle~, I didn't have a chance to duel against you. So I chose this daily match against you" said Amelia's daughter.

"Hmmm alright, but the will we want if we win in this match, can we tell each other now?," asked Irene.

"All right, I agree. Okay, it started with me first. If I win, you have to decide on your partner and follow ~Matchmaking Battle~ back, daughter Irene," said daughter Amelia.

"Why do you want me to attend the event, Amelia's daughter ? If I don't attend the event, it will automatically be you who will be the only candidate to become the princely couple. You don't have to duel anymore with me to get the prince" Irene said.

"You are right, if you do not follow the event automatically I will immediately become a pair of princes. But I don't like that. I want to get the prince through the game at the show. And if I win that match, it will be more satisfying to beat you in the midst of the many nobles who are present to watch the event" said Amelia's daughter.

"So that's your excuse, Amelia's daughter," Irene said.

"Yes, so if I win in the daily game, I want you to follow the event again" said Amelia's daughter.

"Well, I don't mind your will if you win. And now to my will if I win. I want you and your men to stop contacting me and my assistants during this academy. Want it to chat, approach or follow, I beg you and your men not to do that again to me and my assistant. Do you agree?" asked Irene.

"Did he realize all this time that my men were following him and his men that he filed this ? but whatever will you want to apply if you win, your will will will will not be granted," thought Amelia's daughter.

"Alright, I agree" said Amelia's daughter, offering a handshake to Irene.

Irene responded to the hand.

"The daily game will be done later when we finish learning. I don't mind using the first year arena and when we finish learning can we meet here again?" asked princess Amelia.

"All right," said Irene.

"OK then, I want to rest first. I advise you to enjoy your time with your partner until the match arrives, daughter Irene," said Amelia's daughter who immediately left Irene.

".....," Irene only fell silent at the words of Amelia's daughter.

I followed Charles down the stairs and finally we stopped at the A-class training ground.

"It seems like a great place to talk to" Charles said.

"What do you want to talk about, Charles?," I asked.

"About your relationship with Irene's daughter ? did it really happen ? or is it just a pretend ?" asked Charles.

It seems like he realized that this relationship was originally a pretend one, but where is it possible that I said 'yes' to him.

"What do you mean Charles ? is it possible that I'm not a noble like Irene so the truth of my relationship with her is being questioned like this?" I asked.

"No, I don't mean that" Charles said.

"What then?" I asked again.

"No, it's not. It's my fault for asking about this. Allow me to ask you something else. Your relationship was only published today, but actually how long have you been dating princess Irene?" asked Charles.

"It's been about 2 weeks" I said.

"So, what was it when you were chatting with Irene's daughter that she was talking about an arranged marriage or something?" asked Charles.

"No, why are you asking such a thing?" I asked.

"Normally, noble children are always betrothed by their parents for the political interests of their families but I don't think that Irene's daughter shot you and you're finally dating" Charles said.

"That's it, well, with Irene shooting me it's proof that there's no matchmaking in her family. He is free to choose his own partner" I said.

"Yes, you're right" said Charles.

"I'm sorry if I guessed wrong, but are you asking like this because you have feelings for Irene, Charles?," I asked.

"No, no. I don't have any feelings for princess Irene........Just yeah I was a little surprised to hear that princess Irene is dating you Rid. Princess Irene was a quiet person and did not even get along much when the noble children's association. So I didn't expect that she now had a partner. Maybe there's something special about you that makes princess Irene open her heart to you, Rid" said Charles.

"Open your heart what ? but this relationship is just pretend" I thought.

"I support you Rid to be Irene's daughter's partner, maybe you're the only one who can understand her" Charles said.

"Thank you, Charles," I said.

"And I also want to apologize for asking too many questions about your relationship with Irene's daughter" Charles said.

"It's okay, I don't mind it" I said.

"Well, then how about we go back to class, others also seem to be hungry and want to eat soon" said Charles.

"All right," I said.

Then we went back to class and when we got to class we didn't find them there. As a result we both went straight to the cafeteria and met those who were eating deliciously, especially Noa.

-

Classes are over.

Irene immediately left the classroom and went somewhere, followed by Leandra and Lily.

"Where's your boyfriend going, Rid?" asked Noa.

"So, maybe there's some business" I said.

"Didn't you catch up with him?" asked Noa.

"Irene said even though we were both dating, we didn't need to always go together. I was allowed to always be with my friends" I said.

"Well that's the case, maybe later I'll ask him to go play with us too" I said.

"Wait, if you do that, we all focus on seeing you make out with him" Noa said.

"You better buy a mirror, Noa. You yourself are also friendly when you invite Lillian to play with us," I said.

"But I'm not in a relationship with Lillian" Noa said.

"It's just counting the time. Already this chat we both have, let us both go to the arena to do daily matches," I said.

-

I also finished doing daily matches.

"What's true, from the beginning to enter until now the Rid has not even lost in daily matches,"

"The ice princess hasn't lost a daily match all this time either,"

"And now they become lovers, they become invincible partners" said the students who watched my match.

After the arena, I headed to the spectator bench.

"Congratulations, Rid," said Chloe.

"Thank you, Chloe, it's Charles's turn?" I asked.

"Yes" said Chloe.

I looked towards Chloe and she seemed to be thinking of something.

"What's up Chloe, it looks like there's something you're thinking about" I said.

"Ah, there's nothing" said Chloe.

"That's it," I said.

Then I sat on the bench next to Noa.

"Hey, Rid," said Noa who suddenly whispered to me.

"What is it?" I asked.

"Since you've been dating the ice princess and it's already known to the public as well, did you decide to stay 1 dorm with her ? Moreover, this academy also allows," said Noa.

"Hmmm I don't know, after all I don't think too much about that" I said.

Suddenly, the arena felt like it was shaking.

"Do you feel it Rid?" asked Noa.

"Yes" I said.

"It looks like this vibration is caused by someone competing in another arena" Noa said.

"It seems so," I said.

I felt the aura of Irene upstairs, it seemed like she was the one competing there. But I also felt another aura that felt familiar.

-

Then Charles had finished the daily game and was back where we were sitting.

"Because Charles is done, let's do things as usual" said Noa.

"What is that?" I asked

"Of course, buy food" Noa said.

"Daily life has not changed" I said.

When chatting, suddenly this arena shook again but the vibration was stronger than before.

"What is this?!?!," said one of the disciples who was shocked by the shaking building.

After a while, the vibration stopped.

"The tremor just now was very strong, is the source of the vibration the same as the previous vibration?," asked Noa.

"It seems like it is, '" I said.

Then we went to the stairs and there were a lot of students who rushed to go upstairs.

"Oh that's Rid, I thought you were watching the ice princess compete" said one of the students.

"No, I just finished the game. What's wrong ? usually you're not this enthusiastic when you see Irene competing," I asked.

"It's normal, but this time it's different. The ice princess is currently competing with princess Amelia in the 5th floor arena" the student said.

All of us who heard that were shocked.

"It turns out that the familiar aura I felt was from Amelia's daughter" I thought.

We who were curious also rushed to the 5th floor. When we reached the 5th floor, there was no sound there, the arena was very quiet. Even those watching did not make a sound. I was curious as to what was happening and immediately looked towards the arena. I was surprised, the arena was so chaotic. The arena was filled with roses and with sharp thorns. Some of the roses also appeared to be frozen. But it seemed like the reason the audience became silent was because they were surprised to see someone lying there. They were shocked to see Irene lying down filled with many wounds.
