Hello, degoor:
I tested the code on a text file containing bulgarian (utf-8 encoded) and english, and the code worked correctly. I inspected the byte values using hexdump (od would do) and they confirmed the presence of two byte sequences beginning with 0320-0323 octal. I also double checked your byte ranges using wikipedia/google and U+0400 through U+04FF are indeed cyrillic.
I suggest taking a look at the file using od or hexdump (or a windows hexeditor) to see exactly what's in the file you intend to process with perl/awk.
My sample utf-8 encoded text with cyrillic came from the Columbia UTF-8 sampler, top result when googling "utf-8 sampler". You can test my code against that to confirm that there isn't some other malfunction taking place (perhaps copy-paste mangling, etc).

excel::writer::xlsx::package::xmlwritersimple
Excel::Writer::XLSX::Package::XMLwriterSimple(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Excel::Writer::XLSX::Package::XMLwriterSimple(3pm)
NAME
XMLwriterSimple - Light weight re-implementation of XML::Writer.
This module is used internally by Excel::Writer::XLSX.
DESCRIPTION
This module is used by Excel::Writer::XLSX for writing XML documents. It is a light weight re-implementation of XML::Writer.
XMLwriterSimple is approximately twice as fast as XML::Writer. This speed is achieved at the expense of error and correctness checking. In
addition not all of the XML::Writer methods are implemented. As such, XMLwriterSimple is not recommended for use outside of
Excel::Writer::XLSX.
If required XMLwriterSimple can be overridden and XML::Writer can be used in its place by setting an "_EXCEL_WRITER_XLSX_USE_XML_WRITER"
environmental variable:
export _EXCEL_WRITER_XLSX_USE_XML_WRITER=1
perl example.pl
Or for one off programs:
_EXCEL_WRITER_XLSX_USE_XML_WRITER=1 perl example.pl
This technique is used for verifying the test suite with both XMLwriterSimple and XML::Writer:
_EXCEL_WRITER_XLSX_USE_XML_WRITER=1 prove -l -r t
