110 “Return With Victory”

Every step that Eleanora took in the ground started to cover in ice as she walked. Where, her long silver hair flew with her long blue cape as she moved.

Even while facing hundred barbarians at once, her blue eyes remained calmed and cold.

With a low sharp sound, she draw her sword out and hold it with full confidence like the barbarians infront of her was nothing.

Her sword movements was so swift and clear that, it looked like she was actually dancing with her sword rather then fight.

Cedrick felt a heart skip as he looked at her.

The cheerfulness and childish behaviour of her can only be seen by the people she is closed with.

Like her father, her cousin and her friends, which included him now.

She is a complete different person when she deals with others except those people.

Either it’s normal people or the enemy, she always have her guards up against everyone.

.....

.....

Like no one can break the hard ice walls of her.

But inside those hard ice walls is a beautiful garden full of innocence.

During the past four years, Eleanora’s personality changed a lot.

She has started to express her emotions and concerns, even if she looks cold in outside.

In the battlefield, it feels like this is the only ppace where she can vent up her secret emotions.

Pouring them all put with violence.

Just like the scene infront of Cedrick now.

Cedrick sighed as he started to use his magic to help Eleanora move more fast and lightly.

‘Stop beating so fast for her, My heart. She can’t be ours...’

Even if Eleanora burnt down every letter sent by the emperor to her, Cedrick could see the hidden emotions in her cold eyes.

The fear of rejection, the fear of accepting a new change and the possibility of regretting it, Cedrick understood those emotions too well.

Because once, he was like this too.

He couldn’t express his admiration for her, which started to pile up in his heart and then finally turned into an unrequited love.

He knows it too clearly that she is just deceiving herself by thinking she doesn’t like the emperor, even if they don’t marry, she won’t choose him either.

She is just escaping from her own feelings.

So, he rather just keep helping her from behind the shadows as always and watch from afar, finding happiness with someone else.

‘Being her friend is already a luxury which i could never even imagine. One shouldn’t eat more then he could digest.

Get a hold of yourself, Cedrick. Once we return, our relationship will change.

She is the future empress and i can only bow to her, show her respect while hiding my emotions.’

Where to Eleanora, she was finally feeling relaxed.

Battlefield is the only place where she can unleash the madness of emotions inside her.

The reason why she is so eager to celebrate her coming of age ceremony is because it didn’t happened in her past life.
