Became a Hatchling of the Grand Duke of the North

61 – How the Master Lives (2)

Princess Lucia. Princess Rachel. And yone

Look at these three names.

Can’t remember something?

Yes. Two of these three are nobles.

The commoner… Is only Yone.

And by and large, being a commoner usually has situations you go through.

[Huh. I thought I was dying, lady.]

[Really?]

[Yes. This is why commoners are difficult at the academy. Ah…]

While doing so, Yone threw the letters in his hand into the trash.

It was a movement without the slightest hesitation.

But she knew because she was Lucia, whom she had been with all along.

Her maid, Yone, said that she wasn’t the type to act so boldly. After all, it was clear that the root of this behavior had to come from someone else.

[Where did you learn that? I get used to it.]

[Ah, this? This is Princess Rachel. I had to throw this away for sure.]

[…?]

But Lucia only tilted her head and revealed her doubts.

[But wouldn’t the sender be pretty upset if he saw this? These must have been letters written while worrying in their own way.]

At that, Yone laughed and twisted her body.

[Ah, the princess said that, but it’s like this. And he took all the responsibility instead.]

[Responsibility?]

[If someone complains about why they abandoned me, they will tell me the name of the princess. Then, who would dare to find fault?]

[…Kiiiii-.]

At that sound, Han, the guardian dragon who had been listening quietly until now, narrowed his eyes.

He looked up at Yone, bewildered.

‘So you don’t mean to name the princess in the end?’

At this point, Yone is about to become great.

Is it indifferent, or is her bowl too big? As long as it’s a guardian dragon, even he can’t get a sense of which one it is.

Then Yone and Han’s eyes met.

Then she reached out her hand to him with a thrilled expression on her face.

[Guardian Dragon Niim. I missed you.]

Tak.

As soon as Yone’s hand approached, Han immediately hit it with his tail and pushed it away.

It was a clear sign of rejection.

[…]

There was silence for a moment, but Yone brushed it off casually and smiled.

[Well, that’s right.]

It was then.

Jerbug.

Suddenly, someone’s voice was heard from behind them.

[What does that mean?]

[Ah, Princess.]

It was the voice of a familiar person who could never be forgotten.

Princess Rachel. Lucia and Yone tried to get up from her seat reflexively at her appearance, but she just waved her hand and said,

[It’s okay. Let both of you sit. I don’t want to be greeted even by my friends.]

It was lunch time after a long time.

Princess Rachel didn’t want to be greeted by others until now.

She is always admired and admired by others.

From noble mtl dot com

[And in fact…]

Sure.

For a moment, Princess Rachel looked at Yone up and down her and gave her a sneaky smile.

[To be honest, isn’t Yone’s appearance quite outstanding? She looks white, transparent and innocent. If she’s a man, she’s a very attractive impression.]

Well, I agree with that to the limit.

What should I say? Northerners basically belonged to the axis with quite outstanding appearance.

White and transparent skin. And all of them, who grew up tough in a rough environment and had healthy, elastic muscles that pulsated, were all active and healthy.

Rather, Han was surprised when he came to the capital of this empire.

‘What struck me even more was seeing the people of the capital. I wondered why everyone looked just average. It’s not uncommon to see ugly people.’

Maybe it was because I stayed in the northern part where only pretty girls existed until now.

After Han came to the capital of the empire, he thought there were goblins running around.

Even cadets from aristocratic families were out of the question.

Ugly people are infinitely ugly, and there are very few good people. It was completely different from the North.

[More than that.]

She sat casually in the seat next to her and opened her mouth as she looked at Lucia and Yone’s lunchbox with her coy gaze.

[I’m more curious about what the Grand Duchess and Yone’s lunchbox menu is.]

‘Bento box?’

At that sound, Han pulled the beef yukhoe lunch box he was eating into his arms.

It was an action in the sense that I would never give up on this.

He opened his eyes and saw the lunchbox that Princess Rachel was taking out.

Soon, his pupils widened.

‘Oh, oh oh…’

Gorgeous golden white. The sun’s rays were reflected and glistened.

At first glance, this is a dazzling lunchbox.

[Wow… This is an amazing lunchbox.]

[Isn’t it? Every day, I bring the lunch box delivered from the imperial castle like this.]

It was a natural result to be curious about what was inside.

Suddenly, Luciana Yone also watched Princess Rachel’s lunchbox with her eyes shining.

It’s a lunchbox packed directly by the imperial castle.

Unexpectedly, he shoved his belongings into his corner and watched the opening of the lid with interest.

[Now, look.]

Sure.

Soon, the lid of the Hwangseong lunch box was opened.

‘Oh-… Oh…’

But at the same time, Han’s eyes softened.

When the contents were revealed, his expectations quickly plummeted.

It wasn’t a meat lunch box. It was a perfect green lunch box.

‘A. What. It’s all just vegetables, this.’

Han snorted him and turned his head away. Then he put his head in his lunchbox of raw meat and started to focus on eating.

I think so.

If you’re a princess, it’s only natural that you prioritize health over taste when making lunch boxes.

It was a natural idea, but I couldn’t think of it at all. From the beginning, it was just a trivial worry for Han.

But it seems that wasn’t the case with Lucia and Yone.

[Wow!]

[Vegetable salad lunch box! Tomato! From cucumbers to lettuce! Oh my god!]

They opened their eyes wide and couldn’t hide their surprise.

As if she finally realized something, Princess Rachel asked.

[Ah, come to think of it, vegetables were said to be very rare in the north where you were staying, right?]

[Sure, Princess! It’s so precious that even Lady Lucia and the Grand Duke can only eat it once a week!]

The ground frozen in the cold.

Of course, there is little possibility that farming will take place in the midst of it.

When it comes to food in the north, the first things that come to mind are polar bears, seals, and snow rabbits. Meat and meat. It’s meat again

In the end, most of the wheat or vegetables were very precious things that could only be eaten by paying money and bringing them from the central continent.

Therefore, if there were things that even the great nobles of the north couldn’t eat, let alone Yone, who was inferior to them.

Yone shouted in excitement.

[I, since I was born, I could only eat vegetables on my birthday, Princess! Even that wasn’t even half a piece of lettuce!]

[Uh, hmm. I want to eat some too…]

[Oh ho.]

Princess Rachel’s smile grew thicker at the sight of the two appealing as if they were competing.

This seems to be able to be exchanged successfully.

* * * *

The class I took in the afternoon was ‘Anti-Magic Defense’.

Since this was a public lecture that many others, including the Faculty of Knights and Faculty of Magic, attended, a large crowd gathered.

[-Therefore, here, if you twist and unfold your mana once in this way, you can form a layer of defense. Let’s all try it.]

At the suggestion of the professor who was conducting the class in front of them, the cadets each raised their magical energy and concentrated their minds.

Lucia, Princess Rachel, and Yone were among them.

[It’s quite, quite difficult, this.]

Fasasak.

Lucia smiled awkwardly at the sight of the mana she had built up from concentrating her mind dispersing like it was breaking.

However, Princess Rachel offered words of comfort as if nothing had happened.

[Isn’t the Grand Duchess a knight student? Originally, swordsmen rather than wizards have a little less power distribution ability.]

[I guess so. Thank you, Princess.]

While Lucia had difficulty deploying her defense magic, in the case of Princess Rachel and Yone, they were able to use magic fairly easily.

It was a talent worthy of a magic undergraduate.

But not all magic undergraduates were as brilliant as they were.

As Han turned his head, he could see several cadets in mage robes from a distance away, struggling to use magic.

They couldn’t even perform the most basic act of raising magic power.

And from what I’ve heard, they seem to be in the upper class.

‘Looking at things like that, it seems that Lucia has more than a fair amount of upper class magical talent.’

No wonder she used magic more familiarly than most upper class cadets.

At first, she was quickly distracted, but by the time her class was over, she had gotten used to it and was able to use defensive magic without any problems.

She is said to be a knight undergraduate, but perhaps because of her natural talent, her magical talent was also considerable.
