《Rain Revert》Chapter 43: [ Holy Sword ]
Advertisement
“I did no such thing,” Rain replied while slowly walking back towards his chair.
His face relaxed and cheerful, “I just don’t want any fallacy and fraud… I’m not fond of political faces, so please spare me with that,”
“What you said before, are all those lies?” Princess frowned from feeling played by Rain.
“No,” Rain shook his head. “It’s true that I don’t wish to return, as I felt that I don’t belong there,” After all, he wasn’t a real Aquarian. “I have my own here, my family who treated me well…”
Now, at this moment, Rain felt as if they are finally meeting face to face. A while ago, Rain felt discomfort because he felt as if the pace was being controlled by the princess and he was only a yes-man in the conversation, thus, he has no choice but to take a gamble – betting on this Clans’ prestige.
You know, she was as if treating him nicely because of his clan, but perhaps… Was she actually putting him under surveillance?
Well, either way, it didn’t matter as he won the gamble!
“… …” Hearing his words, the Princess couldn’t help but sighed as if suffering something. “Cubawa*! I forgot what you Aquarians are…” she cursed. “You said that you aren’t an Aquarian but you possess their irritating and annoying sides!”
( Cubawa means F*ck! Or cursed word in )
“Was that so? Then they must have given you a fair share of headaches,” Rain smiled wryly.
“You can’t even imagine it,” The princess said with a fed up tone. “Idealistic, independent, idiots who possess wild imagination and super idiots who were extremely willing to risk everything just for a single decision… and most of all, idiots who always stick strongly to their beliefs while at the same time guarding their ideals with their lives. All of you always wanted to have an interesting conversation with a person. Do you even realize your standing?”
“I’m still a royal for heaven’s sake!!” Princess Leticia angrily pounded her fist on the table as she glared at Rain who was shock and dumbfounded. Just how much was this woman enduring?

Well, that struck a chord…
Not only Rain but even Doram, Garas and Celis were wide-eyed from the princess's explosion of resentment. F*ck! Did she really endure all that annoyance!!?
Princess Leticia took a deep breath, calming her irritation. “I apologize for my actions,”
“No, no, go on… they must have really annoyed you,” Rain smiled bitterly.
“… I realized I haven’t heard your name, tell me,”
“I apologize for the late introduction then, my name’s Rain Revert…”
“Real name?” Revert? Princess Leticia frowned after hearing Rain’s surname. Although he had a surname so it means he was a noble but, it wasn’t one of the great clans nor was it some small noble clans in the kingdom. She had never heard the surname Revert before…
“Probably,” Rain replied vaguely.
“Who gave you this name…?”
Rain looked up, deep in thought, then naively and innocently smiled: “Hm… the one who found me?”
“Who?”
“… …” Rain didn’t answer.
“You really won’t tell?” Princess Leticia sighed. “Do you even realize what your actions in front of me dictate? Even if you are from the Great Noble Clans, you will still receive capital punishment!”
“… …”Rain stared at the princess's eyes. The two people stared directly, never averting their eyes from each other.
The Princess looked at his oceanic blue pupils and saw it was cold and indifferent. She couldn’t guess what he was thinking, however, for some reason she felt slightly overwhelmed! Why? She should be stronger than him… no, this is, that can’t be possible!
Princess Leticia erases the sudden idea that had appeared inside her mind as only high ranking elders or the true blood; those candidates of being the Aquarian Clan’s heir possess that kind of thing.
It’s probably her imagination.
!! At this moment, a cough breaks their stalemate. It came from Celis who was standing behind Rain. “Princess, with all due respect, everyone would try to protect their interests.” She pacified while stepping forward, putting her hands on his shoulders, “… Especially to someone who had lost their memories and didn’t have any knowledge about the current world. He was probably afraid of you that he didn’t dare to speak any sensitive information.”

“Now she was speaking my language,” Rain smiled as he shamelessly grabbed Celis' hands. Due to constantly having only women around him all this time and battling one of them every night, Rain was already used to women compared to before.
It could be said that he was already matured in dealing with women.
Celis was startled when Rain grabbed her but she just ignored it. Geminin Clan and the Aquarian Clan have always a good relationship with each other. Thus, she was extremely comfortable with Rain, who she deemed as an already member of the Aquarian Clan.
“And you too Rain, you should apologize to the princess,” She said with an older sister vibe while patting his shoulders. “That’s not the kind of attitude you need to have in front of a royalty.”
Rain shrugs, “I apologize, your highness…”
“Celis, do you know Rain?” Princess Leticia asked in surprise as she saw how intimate this girl was with Rain. Although she was normally gentle and affectionate but most times, she was nervous around strangers.
“I didn’t,” Celis shook her head and with a faint smile, she added, “But I like Rain. He’s not… like other men, I had seen so far. Besides, our families are close to each other~”
Rain shrugs and said with an indifferent tone, “Your Highness, what are you doing here?” He started, trying to avoid the topic of returning him to the Aquarian Clan again.
“We’re here for a mission…”
“A mission?”
“Inside the Lair, an item was hidden and I like to get that.” The princess said vaguely.
“Hmm, is that so,” Did the cave has that? Rain frowned as he recalled his experience inside the lair but he didn’t see or found anything noteworthy…
“What kind?”
“… …” But the Princess didn’t respond and just stared at him suspiciously.
“Fine, it’s not like I care…” Rain snorted. Feeling hurt from being suspected.
“It’s not that we don’t want to say, it’s because we don’t know what it is yet.”
“What?” You’re looking for it and yet you don’t even know what it is?
Are you crazy??!
While Rain was still in a state of confusion, the princess sipped some tea as her expression turned more serious. “It was only heard in legend. No one had seen it before and much less find it. What we only know was that it was owned by a legendary hero named Arturia Pendragon a long time ago where he used it to defeat the demons…”
Arturia Pendragon? Fudge! Aint that a very familiar name…
“… We don’t know what it looked like but according to the records from the Royal Family it was a sword encased in gold called –”
“Caliburn…” Rain subconsciously muttered startling the princess and the others.
“You know?!”
Sh*t! As if I wouldn’t know! What do you mean by Arturia Pendragon?? That’s King Arthur Pendragon for heaven’s sake!!
No way, “… real?” How is it possible for that story on Earth also here in this world?
“It was called Caliburnus but can be called Caliburn for short…” Princess Leticia stared at Rain suspiciously. “How do you know that? Although the Aquarian should have known this story as well but, don’t you have any memories?”
“… …” Rain’s mouth hanged open then his lips curled into a grin as he looks at the ceiling, “Ah the sky is blue~”
“Hey! You can’t even see the sky here, speak!” The princess's complexion turned serious. “Are you lying about your memories?”
