Chapter 8: The Bartfort Sisters
translation thanks to LrdAdi in reddit
Part 1
The royal capital where riots occurred in various places.
Finley was in town amidst residents fleeing for their lives.
In her left hand she held a paper bag containing clothing and accessories that she had just bought, and in her right hand Jenna held it as they walked.
"Hurry, Finley!"
"Wait, sister."
The reason Finley wasn't at the Academy was because she and Jenna were having fun in the royal capital.
Finley shrugged when she heard a gunshot from a nearby street.
-What's going on? Hey sister!
It was originally time for her to return to the Academy, but Jenna had asked her to accompany her and had broken her curfew.
When these two people were having fun, a sudden ruckus arose.
While wondering what was going on, various battles took place in various parts from the royal capital and they were running desperately.
Jenna was in a state of panic and her speech was abrupt.
-I do not know! Anyway, we have to get out of here.
"But something's wrong with the Academy too. It is strange that an aircraft is approaching and an Armed unit is fighting in the sky over the royal capital.”
The two of them were running for their lives not knowing where they were going to find refuge.
Jenna spun around without stopping and yelled at Finley.
-Just run! Leon and Nicks are here, so help should be coming shortly.
Jenna seemed to depend on her older brother and younger brother who she tends to make fun of usually.
Finley lived in her parents' house until she entered the academy, so she doubted that they could trust their brothers.
"Are you sure we can trust our brothers?"
Seeing that Finley was tired of running, Jenna led her down an alley where they hid and they caught their breath.
"You really are a fool."
Finley, whose breathing was still heavy, responded to Jenna as she wiped the sweat from her forehead.
"What do you mean, am I a fool? This is your fault, sister! When I tried to go back you said something like "It's okay if you break the curfew ~", and you took me around!”
Finley broke her curfew because Jenna invited her to have fun.
She seems to be aware of it herself, but there was a part where it seemed she wasn't convinced.
"You were very excited when you accepted! Did you forget you wanted to go to a Restaurant with a nice atmosphere and order various things !?”
When the sisters began to argue, a man with a gun appeared from the back of the alley.
Finley and Jenna were scared when they saw the man. They were afraid of man, but the reason Their main fear was because they knew him.
A man dressed in the work clothes worn by the Academy's caretakers spoke to them, while pointing a pistol at them.
"My luck has changed. You two shut up and obey me in silence.”
Jenna stepped in front of Finley, protecting her, and stared at the man.
- Ludward, were you in the royal capital?
-Do not call me that way! I'm actually a baron ...... no, I'm the man who became a Marquis!
Finley, who hid behind Jenna, honestly expressed her impressions on the line in which he said that all of Leon's accomplishments were originally his.
"You a Marquis? Isn't that absolutely impossible?”
Jenna was quick to give Finley a warning.
"Idiot, if you make the other person angry .......
Before Jenna finished speaking, Ludward pulled the trigger on his pistol. Jenna collapsed on the spot once the shot was heard.
-Sister?
Pressing her right thigh with her hand, Jenna remained strong even then.
-You are the worst. This ... will definitely leave a scar.
"Sister, are you hurt !?”
"It's just a scratch."
There was a lot of blood coming out of Jenna's thighs. Fortunately, the bullet seemed to have pierced, but it was not a slight wound by any means.
An expressionless Ludward approached the two.
"You should know your place. You and I are of different status.”
Ludward, who had great pride even if he was a fallen nobleman, told them how he was going to use them.
"You two will be hostages to lure Leon. If you don't want to die, be calm and obey my orders.”
