Chapter 32 – Ranch’s Highly Emotional Words
Chapter 32 Ranchi’s Highly Emotional Words
The glass walls were flooded with light, and the murals in the atrium were exceptionally bright and soft, making the entire examination room seem like it was in the midst of a shimmering, restful space.
The out-of-this-world change from the Shadow World’s Great Plains of Eraven back to the center of this fragrant indoor building made Ranch feel nothing but relaxation, both physically and mentally.
Just as he cozily shifted his eyes from the stretcher outside the exam room back to the only classmate he knew, Hugh Berrien.
“Hugh ……”
Ranch, who was opening his mouth to greet Hubertarian, suddenly froze again.
Because Ranch only realized at this moment that the atmosphere in the atrium didn’t seem to be so harmonious.
Originally.
In Ranchi’s anticipation, it should be that everyone was calmly exchanging information about the status of the exams, passing this moment of leisure time in the morning, and finally sincerely wishing some good luck to the next group of candidates who might become classmates in the future.
However, that was clearly not the case now.
In the center of the examination room, there seemed to be a bit of sword-fighting and explosiveness between Huberian and a light blonde girl in the second group of candidates who also had an extraordinary temperament.
If it wasn’t for Ranqi’s appearance attracting the attention of everyone present, the next second, Huberian and that noble lady would have fought without regard to the discipline of the examination room.
They seemed to know each other, and the light blonde girl who was suspected to be a noble was clearly hostile to Huberian.
The other two candidates in the second group didn’t go toe-to-toe with Huberian though.
But when they looked at Huberian, they also had a scornful look like they were looking at the plague.
After today’s super-doubled exam, Ranch probably also saw that his teammate Huberian should be a big celebrity in the king’s capital, Ichorite.
It was a humanoid self-propelled hate attraction Ji.
Obviously, it felt like she was quite nice, so why would everyone be an enemy?
Ranchi touched his head in confusion, he didn’t know why the royal capital’s noble circle was all so hostile.
“I say everyone, friendship first ……”
Ranchi just opened his mouth and made an effort to try to round up the conversation.
All things in peace, he hoped that his classmates could get along and be happy.
It was clear that even Examiner Ferrat, who was so angry at first, was reconcilable with Ranch.
Then, in the world of love, nothing is impossible.
“……”
After Ranchi’s figure appeared, Huberian was unwilling to fight meaninglessly.
She shook her head and looked at the noble young lady with long light blonde hair with a cold expression.
“Your Highness Vivian, if you want to be taught a lesson in the arena after enrollment, I’ll be waiting for you anytime.”
After throwing down these words, Huberian no longer paid attention to the honorable young lady across from her and walked away alone.
Huberian walked towards the waiting area, the same place where Ranch was staying, ready to wait for Ms. Teresa to return to hand over post-test matters with their group of candidates.
It wasn’t until Huberian came within a short distance of Ranch that Ranch lowered his voice in surprise and said to Huberian:
“My god, you are really tough, the king’s daughter you also dare to treat so casually.”
The light blonde girl Vivian who could be called “Your Highness” must be the king’s daughter of this Houghton Kingdom!
It seems that her highness Vivian’s own strength is quite good, and she was able to take the exam after their group.
Then it seems that Huberian’s own family is also quite powerful, and if she dares to dislike the royal family so desperately, she definitely can’t be a minor noble in terms of courage.
As expected of the royal capital, one could meet a big shot just by leaving the house.
It’s really exciting.
“……”
Huberian didn’t know how to respond to this tirade from Ranch.
You obviously face me, a duke lady, with this casual attitude, and you even know that you have to show respect to a great noble?
But Huberian didn’t hate Ranchi’s attitude.
The more those who showed respect to her when she was in power, the more they liked to speak ill of her when she was down.
On the contrary, Ranchi’s sincerity in treating all people of all statuses equally was rare for Huberian.
The two of them exchanged briefly on the occasion.
Ms. Teresa still hadn’t returned.
Vivian, who was called “Your Highness”, stood not far away, gazing at Huberian and Ranqi with an indescribable sulking look in her eyes. “Ranch Wilford, is it?”
After a long time, Queen Vivian finally asked, with a rather condescending look of disdain, that
“Although I don’t know how you defeated Ferrat Shavingson, it must be because of you.”
It was clear that Huberian alone would never be able to pass Ferat’s hurdle.
Vivian knew Huberian, who had known her since childhood, all too well.
She originally thought that today Huberian would leave from the world of artificial shadows full of resentment, but unexpectedly it was Examiner Ferrat who was carried away.
Then it must have been this “elegant nobleman with black hair and green pupils” who was rumored to have passed the [Winter’s Hidden Flame] in no time that had done something that made people’s eyes go black.
“It’s not a one-man victory, it’s the result of teamwork.”
Ranchi simply replied humbly, bowing slightly to the king’s daughter.
Huberian stood aside and didn’t deny it either.
Although she knew that Rancic was being modest with such a statement, there was no reason for her to reveal anything more.
“…… like this.”
Seeing Rancic’s attitude, Vivian wasn’t too good to be aggressive anymore.
Ranqi being able to pass the second round of examination might be luck and play, but being able to pass the third round of this difficulty again meant that it was inevitably strength.
This kind of guy, if he was still calm and introverted, could not be underestimated as a Shadow World challenger in the future, and there was no need to bully or offend the talents of his country.
“I advise you to stay away from this Miss Duke Huberian Alansal in the future, don’t be mesmerized by her just because you think she’s pretty.”
Vivian just glanced at Huberian and said as if she was returning the favor.
Although she was speaking to Huberian, she was clearly speaking to Ranch.
Ranch cocked his head in confusion; he felt as if Vivian had misunderstood something.
Earlier Examiner Ferrat had seemed to have the same misunderstanding.
Could it be that in their eyes, helping Huberian was something incredible?
He himself was just trying to pass the exam.
But it didn’t matter.
Ranch always had the feeling that Vivian wasn’t purely malicious towards Huberian like Ferrat, but rather an unspoken complexity.
“Your Highness Vivian, it turns out that in your eyes, Miss Huberian is a very beautiful person.”
Ranchi bowed to Vivian again, then smiled.
This time Huberian became a little uncomfortable looking at Ranchi, while Vivian’s expression was all messed up.
“No!”
Vivian denied with some agitation.
“There is no reconciliation between her and I. You needn’t bother rounding up for nothing.”
Hubertrian, too, wanting to end the subject as soon as possible, cut in with an aside.
When Ranchi heard that, he looked at Huberian and let out an “Oh”, as if he understood something.
“Your Highness Vivian, it seems that Ms. Huberian has also considered the matter of reconciling with you so far.”
Ranchi looked at Vivian with a gentle smile again, and relayed Huberian’s words for her as if he were translating.
“No!!!”
Huberian denied vehemently, it was rare to see her have this emotional up and down.
At those words, Vivian, whose breath was still a bit disorganized, was like wilting, pursing her lips and averting her eyes.
Next.
Ranchi maintained his smile, seemingly waiting for the two to continue speaking and relaying ideas for them.
But neither Hubertine nor Vivian spoke.
