Ye You pulled Yulis and ran around the campus.
"What are you doing? If Tanitsuzaki-sensei found out about this, then he would be in big trouble! If you want to skip class, go alone. Don't force me!”
Yulis protested to Ye You unhappily.
She had already tried many times on the way, but Ye You's hand was like a pair of pliers. She could not break free at all.
"I say, Uris. Don't you feel tired?"
Ye You replied with a smile, but she did not let go of the little hand that she had been holding.
"What do you mean?"
"I've always been restricted by the identity of 'Her Royal Princess'.”
The indignance on Yulis 'face froze as she looked at Ye You in disbelief.
Ye You let go of her small hand and stretched.
"What are you trying to say?"
Yulis did not choose to leave. Instead, she stared at Ye You.
"It's nothing. I was just feeling it. From the moment I met you, you seemed to have been trying your best to maintain your identity as the princess and give others the impression of being cold and aloof.”
“......”
"Others think that being a high and mighty princess must be very happy. But in fact, you're not happy, am I right?”
The look in Yuris 'eyes became very complicated.
He was clearly just a stranger he had met today, but he could actually understand!？
No one knew better than her how she had always been, but why could this annoying fellow sense the fatigue in her heart?
Ye You glanced at the dazed Yulis and smiled calmly.
"The identity of a princess does not only bring glory, but also countless shackles, right? There are many things that you are destined not to be able to do. Let's go. There's a good place over there to rest.”
......
Although the two of them were in the middle of the courtyard, it was comparable to a park in size.
The surrounding flowers and trees were also neatly trimmed. There was also a small pavilion beside the pool, which was a very good place to rest.
Yulis sat down on the stone bench in the pavilion while Ye You leaned against the pillar of the pavilion.
The young girl was silent for a long time before she looked at Ye You with a complicated expression.
"I want to participate in the Phoenix Martial Ritual and win! No matter what, I have to achieve that goal!”
"What's the reason?"
"Money!"
A trace of bitterness appeared at the corner of Urisse's mouth.
"Is this reason ridiculous? I am the first princess of Razetania, but I don't have much money at my disposal. As the king's brother, he doesn't have any rights, and so do I…"
"And then?"
Ye You didn't say much. Being an audience now was the greatest reward for Yulis.
The girl obviously knew this as well. After a few seconds of silence, she continued.
"When I was young, I was very mischievous and often snuck out of the palace alone. One day, I got lost in an unfamiliar alley and met someone who had ill intentions towards me. then... It was those children who came out and chased them away. After I returned to the palace, I investigated their identities. They were children from an orphanage in the slums.”
Urisse looked up at the sky, and a nostalgic smile appeared on her face.
"After that, I often went out to play with them, and they became my best friends. However, due to financial problems, the orphanage was now facing a situation of bankruptcy. This kind of thing…I can't accept this kind of thing."
"So, in order to protect the orphanage that is on the verge of bankruptcy, you plan to win the Phoenix Star Martial Arts Festival to obtain a large sum of money to support the orphanage?”
"That's right."
Ye You nodded in understanding. Although she already knew about it, it was a different feeling to hear Yuris's words with her own ears.
Now, the upper echelons of this world were led by the Consolidated Enterprise Consortium, and her country was supported by the Consolidated Enterprise Consortium, so it was only natural for the puppet royal family to do so.
Yulis turned around and spoke to Ye You seriously.
"So... I must win the Phoenix Star Martial Ritual!”
"In fact, victory is only one step away from you!”
"What?"
Urisse was slightly stunned, not understanding what he meant.
Ye You turned around and smiled at the young lady.
"You should have seen my strength. It's a piece of cake for me to become the champion of the Phoenix Star Martial Ritual.”
"Of course I know that! I'm asking you..."
Yulis retorted unhappily. Towards the end of her sentence, she instantly understood what Ye You meant.
Then, the girl looked at Ye You suspiciously.
"Why? Today is our first meeting, right? What's the reason?"
Although she did not know Ye You's exact strength, Yulis knew that he did have the ability to win the Phoenix Star Martial Ritual!
More importantly, why did he help her?
"Why…Why are you helping me?"
Ye You looked at the young girl's beautiful and exquisite face and grinned.
"How can there be so many whys in this world? It's enough that I'm happy. In my eyes, you're just a clumsy and cute girl. I just want to see your smiling face, that's all.”
"Wha…!?"
Yuris fell into silence.
Just because of this, he wanted to help her win the championship of the Phoenix Star Martial Ritual?!
This guy was too willful!
However, the feeling of being understood was not bad…
