How to Divorce the Male Lead - Chapter 29

Chapter 29

The tent serving as a waiting room did not insulate the heat at all. Because of that, cool air filled the tent.

Evan was crumpling the paper in the cold waiting room, wearing only thin leather armor.

It was a paper with the list of tournament qualifiers. Evan, who effortlessly threw the crumpled paper in one hand and dropped it away, leaned back in his chair.

“Whoa…..”

Breathing in the air, white clumps of clouds rose.

It was cold there, and it was too late to abandon this ship.

It was right to fight.

Evan preferred leather armor over iron armor that was annoying. The body was lighter, and it was easier to ride on a horse in this armor.

Evan’s fighting style was similar to that of his distant ancestors. A quick, deadly, heavy blow.

However, the harsh combat methods of the ancestors gradually disappeared as the descendants settled down in this land.

The people of the Ariakne Empire, who were originally known as the “barbarians” from the north, have now forgotten their roots, but this barbaric fight was the last game to revive their instincts.

However, nowadays, this meaningful game chilled the crowd’s blood rather than heat it up, as only the voracious knights began to participate in it.

Evan thought that the sight of the unsettled knights, wearing heavy iron armors, was not even worth laughing at as they were still afraid that spears would pierce their throats in the gap between the pieces of armor on the neck.

Ironically, the name of this barbaric bloodshed contest was the Blue Rose Contest, and its main protagonist was none other than Juliana Auburn.

Juliana Auburn has been known for her beauty and notoriety since she was very young. Her pale skin, dark fiery red hair, and hazel eyes that shined like a pair of jewels captured the hearts of those who had ever seen them.

The scenes in which she, who has been a gifted sorcerer since birth, was using magic were absolutely spectacular.

When the flames erupted from her fingertips, pale and smooth skin remained without any red marks. Juliana’s talent and appearance were difficult to reach.

Mysteriously beautiful, she was surprisingly a fun person who enjoyed hanging out with people.

Her sighs and smiles attracted both men and women. Her kindness made people sigh deeply and shed tears at her lack of interest.

And, on the contrary, there were many people who felt betrayed and sobbed at her caprice. Evan Hilcheon’s tournament opponent was also one of them.

‘Hmm. The son of Baron Rosen?’

There were many young children in Rosen’s family and Baron Rosen had a mansion and owned territory on the northern border. The matter was that a couple of articles were written by one of these children.

Evan’s problem was that the nasty knight had suffered from a serious illness once, and grinding his teeth, he reconsidered his revenge again.

Evan closed his eyes while listening to the voice of a knight running down the road, wiping his armor, and asking whether the spears of his opponents were dull.

The man’s voice over the thin tent sounded urgent, but not threatening.

‘The pig-eating sound is worth more than this.’

Evan grinned.

Fortunately, Baron Rosen had many children. One or two more will become knights, so it doesn’t matter if the young knight dies.

Evan didn’t feel any remorse. He crossed his legs while humming quietly.

At the same time, a spear flew through the air and whistled, mimicking the sound of piercing a delicate and weak neck.
