Chapter 616: The King’s Marriage 7
The backyard of Alda Mansion.
“Hiss!”
Paul jumped back and jumped away, putting some distance between him and the little princess Irene.
The current situation is a bit...awkward!
Paul thought he could easily make the little princess admit defeat. After all, what girl would be interested in dancing with a sword?
As for myself, although I either stay in the office or the laboratory all day long, I occasionally practice swordsmanship with Victor.
As a man, and with the advantage of physique and strength, isn’t it easy to deal with a girl who regards a scholar as her identity?
However, he was wrong!
Irene’s swordsmanship is actually faster, more accurate, and more ruthless than him!
Whenever her sword was about to hit the opponent, she would always dodge in a way that surprised Paul.
Then before Paul could take back his weapon, he flexibly struck him with a sword.
Paul can be sure that if Irene was holding a real sword, he would have been stabbed with several bloody holes.
Fortunately, I used a wooden sword and only had a few bruises on my body.
Damn it!
"Haha, you...are you really Betty? I shouldn't have mistaken the person, right?"
In fact, the female guard Liya standing next to her has definitely reminded the identity of the girl opposite.
“Shouldn’t we sit down and catch up now? While drinking tea, talk about the time in the Northwest Bay...”
“No more nonsense, Paul Gray Man!"
Irene held the hilt of the sword tightly and said in a bitter tone: "Thankfully, I thought you were a good friend before, but I didn't expect you to try to take my sister away from me."< br>
"You are a bad guy among bad guys, I will teach you a lesson today!"
Paul is in trouble, what should he do?
Shout for help? What a shame.
Continue playing? Can't seem to beat it.
Huh? Wait, I can't beat her with my sword, if I use other methods...
Eileen is just a girl after all!
Paul thought a little evilly, Irene, Irene, you were clamoring for a duel just now.
Since it’s a duel, don’t blame me for doing whatever I can.
When Paul just thought of this, Irene on the opposite side actually launched an attack.
In less than a heartbeat, the sword edge stabbed near Paul's chest.
Paul swung his sword to fend off the sword, but unfortunately, Irene made a fake move this time.
The sword turned and stabbed Paul in the abdomen at a speed that left Paul no time to react.
Ouch, it hurts! Paul screamed in his heart.
Irene, please remember, I will definitely retaliate against your sister for today’s shame. If you stab me with a sword, I...
Paul swore in his heart, There was no delay in reacting according to the idea just now.
He endured the pain caused by the wooden sword and did not retreat. Instead, he pushed forward regardless.
The wooden swords used by the two men were not real swords. The tip of the sword was actually a small round head. In addition, Irene did not use her full strength. Paul thrust forward and stabbed Paul in the abdomen. The tip of the sword slashed to one side along his silk shirt.
But Paul stepped in front of Irene and bumped into her hard in an ungentlemanly manner.
As a woman, Irene was unable to compete with Paul in terms of strength and weight. When he was pressed close to his body, her proud sword skills had no effect, and she was knocked backwards.
Irene actually reacted very quickly. When Paul was about to get close to her, she raised her leg to kick Paul away.
But in the end, it was still half a beat too slow. He intended to kick Paul but instead tripped him.
The result was that Irene was knocked down by Paul, Paul was tripped by Irene, and then...
Paul fell on top of Irene.
“Ahhh——!”
Irene, who had never been so close to a man before, was so frightened that she let out a sharp scream.
The guards standing around watched this scene in stunned silence, whether they were royal guards or palace guards.
Success? Paul thought, even though the results were embarrassing.
At this moment, a cold voice came from the side. "What are you doing?"
Paul was shocked, the voice sounded like?
He immediately looked in the direction of the sound, and sure enough!
Princess Catherine looked at him and Irene with a livid face.
Oops! When did she come in?
Paul jumped up from Irene with a start, and after a slight hesitation reached out his hand to pull the little princess up.
He said in a cold sweat: "Your Highness, please listen to my explanation. I was just competing with your sister in sword skills, and accidentally..."
But Catherine just looked at him with cold eyes.
Ah! It seemed that she had just arrived, and as soon as she came in, she saw the embarrassing scene just now!
"Sister!"
With tears in her eyes, Irene threw herself into Catherine's arms and burst into tears. She pointed at Paul and cried: "Paul bullied me!"
Paul is a little anxious, Erin, can you stop talking nonsense!
"Ahem! Your Highness, please let me explain, this is actually what happened..."
At the critical moment, Irene's female guard Liya spoke up and explained the whole story to Catherine. Paul was extremely grateful to her.
Catherine, who knew the whole story, gave her sister a shudder on the forehead.
"Stop crying! It was all caused by your nonsense at the beginning!"
"But...but..." Irene said very aggrievedly, "Paul shouldn't be like that either. , It’s too disobedient to the rules of swordsmanship.”
"What? Are you talking about the rules in the duel field with your enemy? Of course, you have to defeat the other party!"
Katherine was a little helpless at her sister's naivety.
“Count Grayman!”
Catherine’s tone made Paul, who thought he had stayed out of the matter, feel nervous.
"Although Erin used the wrong words at first, why did you take it seriously? The scene just now..."
At this point, Catherine frowned slightly, "It's really degrading."
Paul was a little embarrassed, "I'm sorry, Your Highness. I was too serious and bumped into Princess Irene."
Catherine shook her head. She felt that she was particularly upset when facing Paul.
Speaking of which, this was the first time I met my future marriage partner after learning about my marriage.
She went to find Irene just now and learned from the servant that Irene was going to Earl Grayman to "take back" her sister. Worried that Irene would cause any trouble, Catherine hurried to Alda Mansion.
In fact, she thought about many things on the way.
When she saw Paul, she lost the calmness she had when they first met, and had a variety of emotions.
There is anger and fear, embarrassment and nervousness, and even a trace of shyness.
Although these emotions were forcibly hidden by her, in the eyes of outsiders, she was still a majestic princess.
“Come back with me, Erin!”
She ordered her sister in a somewhat stern tone, like a parent catching a child who sneaked out to cause trouble.
Catherine doesn't want to stay here anymore, she doesn't know how to face Paul.
“Okay, sister.”
And now Irene is indeed like a child who was caught after sneaking out.
There was no arrogance at all when he came to see Paul before.
Before leaving, Erin looked back at Paul.
"Paul, you are actually a pretty good person. I hope you can protect my sister in the future!"
The two people involved suddenly blushed, although they did not look at each other again. One look at each other!
