Ch 56

I think I should interfere. I take an icepack from the nearby knight's mess and go over to him, I think I should sneak a bit. Like this I would still be able to keep a low profile.

"Hey, if you keep ignoring your pain like this, it would cause you more trouble in the future. Here take this ice pack and keep using alternative heat and ice packs for the next few days, it would help you relieve the pain."

"*gasp* Miss, you knew? But I made sure to- "

"Hiding your pain won't make you stronger, it could make you weaker. Your hand is dislocated right? Use pain relievers and also the heat and ice pack methods, don't use your right hand when in pain. You get that?"

"Yes Miss, thankyou very much."

He smiled a bit at me. He then started to use the ice pack on his hands and then he shouted...

"MISS THANK YOU, I FEEL MUCH BETTER NOW!"

You little, I wanted to keep a low profile, but now because of you...

Everyone started to look at me, and I became the center of attraction. Geez... Even Papa saw me, this is so embarrassing...

"Miss Judith Ambrogio Klien? If I'm not wrong?" Called out to me Carlos, he had just noticed me.

Look at him confidence overflowing. I know Papa won't help me, I have to find a way out.

"Yes."

' ...... '

"Um excuse me master Carlos, but you should introduce yourself." Said the boy whom I gabe the ice pack, he was using it and was oddly satisfied about it.

"Carlos"

'...'

'...'

'...'

'...'

"That's it?"

"What else do you want after interfering with the knights training?"

"Firstly you don't treat you so called knight properly, fight an injured knight, then take a fake victory and then when I help, you call that interfering?"

"Just what did you say Miss Judith?"

"Exactly what you heard. This guy here, his hand is dislocated, and was in pain, you firstly failed to notice it and then even you say that I am at fault? Really sorry young master, but seems that you should replace your eyes, it iss needed the most at this most at this moment."

"You just said that his hand was dislocated right? Then let's call the army doctor to check whether you are true or not."

"Yeah why not?"

We call over the army doctor and then he says that his hand really is dislocated. He also gave precautionary measures to that guy and said him to not use that hand much.

"Why didn't you tell the truth to me, Jake?"

Oh so he's Jake.

"I apologise young master, but I didn't want to trouble you with my trivial matters."

"I see, but don't do that from now on. A small injury can be a big cause of death. Just consult a doctor when you don't feel well or get injured."

"This injury... Is not a new one."

"What? So you mean to say that he was injured even before this fight? JAKE?"

"It was all due to my abusive father young master, my hand was dislocated when I was small."

"Hmm. I see."

"So that means your victory was not your own. You just trampled over the weak."

"Uh- I guess that's true. I didn't win this fight, I just have failed to realise the opponents circumstances. So let's consider that this match never happened."

"Why?"

"Because neither of us didn't lose or win the match, neither did we have a draw, this all happened due to a secret. That's why."

"Quite intelligent ain't ya? I wish you would have used it, may be ¼ of it to do a full body check up of these so called trainee knights. Because of your negligence, we all wasted so much energy."

"You... Fine I failed to comprehend the circumstances, but this doesn't give you the right to belittle me, ok?"

"Just who the-"

*Ahem*

Someone said... turns out it was Duke Robane.

"Stop with your fighting, the both of you. You both are at fault, you should apologise to each other. Carlos, you failed to complete your duties as the vice captain when the captain was absent while Miss Judith, though you were correct, but the way you started another word fight, after the first one was over and Carlos recognised his mistake, which was when you took another topic, was totally wrong. So the both of you are at fault."

[Who's mistake was the biggest one? Comment down below.]

"Why am I always the one who's wrong." He muttered which almost everyone nearby heard.

"At least control your thoughts from leaking out of brain."

"You-"

"That's enough the both of you. I agree with Duke Robane, the both of you should apologise. It would be great if this matter got wrapped up already. Judith apologise."

"Father-" these both are insane. "Don't deny."

"You too Carlos" said Duke Robane.

"I'm sorry."

"Even I apologise for my rash behaviour."

"Good. Come here now, let's return Judith."

He is clearly displeased by all of this.

I think should go over obidiently.

"Yeah! Let's return home." With this, Papa said final goodbyes to Duke Robane and left for the carriage with me. Geez... That was no fun, my mood is off now and it won't get cured for the whole day...

But still, from all the boys whom I met, he was truly extraordinary, it would be fun to get entangled with him again.

Athancius:- I have a bad feeling about this now.

Meanwhile at the other side:-

"Carlos, just what were you thinking? She was a girl, if you could have offended her by your harsh words then..."

"I never noticed that she was a girl father. Oh! Thankyou for telling me."

"THIS KID! What did you think she was then?"

"A tigress?"

"*sigh* you Seriously..."

Carlos was thinking 'but she really was different from the other girls who look like they would collapse at any moment, she was strong, I wanna fight with her again, it would be truly amusing.'

Duke Robane:- I am having a bad feeling about this. But I don't know why so...
