92. Knight Evaluation (1)

We returned to the grassland riding a tamed white horse.

The princess was waiting just at the right time.

She got off her horse and showed respect.

“I’m glad you escaped safely, Her Highness.”

I looked down at her fiercely.

Then, Irina, who sensed her fierceness, smiled softly and asked me a favor.

“Veil, leave the entree to me.”

“Yes… ?”

I was going to question her, but I frowned at her benevolent appearance.

“I will take care of what happened today.”

“Are you okay?”

“Yes, you should rest now too. “It’s our first national holiday in a while.”

It’s National Foundation Day.

Yes, it was around this time.

“You know there will be an article evaluation for the first half of the year soon, right? “Make sure to save your body for that time.”

“So, does our help end here?”

When I asked again, the princess took off her suit jacket.

Then, she gave it back to me and said.

“Yes. “Thanks to you, I had fun today, Bale.”

Are you satisfied with this much after spending 150,000 gold on me?

There were still many unknowns about the princess.

“I understand. “Thank you for your help in many ways today.”

I greeted her by placing my fist on her left breast.

Then, Irina slowly turned her head.

She then muttered quietly to herself.

“I got the help….”

The princess looked down at her own legs.

Then she broke up with me, hiding the wriggling corners of her mouth.

“….”

Before leaving the riding range.

I glared at Princess Seo, who was having a serious conversation with Irina.

Then, Sir Entree noticed her.

She looked at me and waved her hand lightly.

“This… “I think it was properly captured by Lord Bale.”

A female knight with short brown hair.

She swallowed deeply and looked at my back as I walked away.

“I can’t believe you can show such fierceness even though you didn’t use any mana or aurors….”

He was not a sword master, but a normal intermediate expert knight, but even she could feel it.

The defense engineer who saw him had the power of the vice-captains, or perhaps even more than them.

“I’m sorry, Entree.”

The second princess came to her side.

He patted the female knight with an apologetic expression.

“I’m sorry. “This is indeed a man that the princess will keep an eye on.”

Entree chuckled.

And unlike during her horse riding competitions, she gazed at the princess with friendly eyes.

Entree Mirian.

She is the eldest daughter of the Grand Duke of the West and is in charge of supply for the Knights of Light.

And, Irina and I were childhood friends.

“You were good at acting earlier? “Anyone could see that she looked like a noble lady steeped in the consciousness of being the chosen people.”

“It’s a compliment, right?”

Irina narrowed her eyes.

Then, she grinned and looked at her own friend.

“Of course, thank you for organizing the game.”

Starting from calling Bale to the riding range.

And even created a competition to show off the princess’s wonderful side.

It was all Irina and her work.

Apparently, Entree is the daughter of the Grand Duke of the West who serves Leia.

However, her position was different from that of her father.

Initially, the position of Grand Duke was planned to be occupied by the eldest son.

Furthermore, she was more interested in supply and stability of the country than in palace secrets or politics.

Thanks to this, she was in favor of the union of the royal families and was willing to help Irina.

“So, did we make as much progress as Lord Bale wanted?”

She is secretly curious about the relationship between the two.

I watched Irina closely as her face blushed when the topic of Jindo came up.

“Oh, that’s….”

The princess recalled the situation from before in her mind.

Even though she fell from a horse, thanks to the veil that touched her leg.

And, the moment when that hand went up to her thigh.

Strange sensations and feelings that I have never felt before.

“I don’t know….”

Irina covered her lips with the back of her hand.

Then she muttered with an embarrassed expression.

“Instead of looking great, she even fell off her horse….”

The princess swallowed her saliva deeply.

She decided to take a bolder approach.

Veil answered by pushing her face, saying that she would look forward to it.

“But, well…” I don’t think it was bad….”

Irina, remembering that moment, raised the corners of her mouth.

I looked at Irina, who smiled like a girl who lives here.

She then smiled and answered in the same way.

“I’m glad you had a harvest.”

Entree gave Irina one of her white horses.

The princess skillfully mounted the horse.

“Are you going now?”

“Yes, I have to prepare for article evaluation soon.”

The second princess of the empire with flowing silver hair.

She exhaled deeply, seeming satisfied with her day.

“If it’s an evaluation match, Lord Bale will also appear. “Every knight in the capital must see it.”

The entree turned her head.

And then, as she looked at the back of the defense engineer who had become smaller in the distance, she spoke.

“I am very looking forward to seeing you in action.”

“Well.”

Unlike her life here, where she was full of expectations, the princess’s expression looked quite bitter.

“Bale wouldn’t want to be noticed.”

Irina looked at the horizon with cool eyes.

Next, she thought deeply about a man.

“However, she will only be able to be promoted to nobility if she shows visible achievements.”

“Do you, princess, plan to make Lord Veil the guardian of this country?”

Entree asked in a serious voice.

Then, Irina grabbed the reins of her horse.

She slowly repeated her friend’s words.

“Guardian….”

The princess could not easily agree.

She was just that. Before she knew it, she had become a monarch. With her cool eyes, she spoke her thoughts.

“We cannot burden a child who was once betrayed by the country again.”

“Yes… ?”

The woman who lives here tilted her head.

“If not as a guardian, what do you intend to entrust him with?”

“I won’t entrust you with anything.”

The princess chuckled.

And, turning her head, she said,

“I will embrace you now.”

Irina began to slowly lead her purring horse.

“Please return safely.”

Knowing the meaning of the woman who lives here, I bowed my head.

Then she waited in silence until the sound of her horse’s hooves disappeared.

“….”

When the sound died down, Entree raised her head again.

And, unlike when he left the princess, he stared at his friend with a worried expression.

Because….

Because she knew that she was no longer the only one targeting her veil.

「 ̄ ̄ ̄.」

A festive atmosphere was created in the capital of the empire.

Excited people and cleanly cleaned buildings.

After the emperor fell ill, the depressed city had high expectations for the long-awaited festival.

And, it was the same for the central imperial palace.

Evaluation of articles for the first half of the year held in conjunction with the Konkuk Festival.

Through this evaluation, drivers can increase their value.

It is a golden opportunity to change affiliation if you receive attention from an important person such as the general manager.

All the knights sharpened themselves so as not to miss this opportunity.

After honing and polishing, they paid close attention to who was evaluating them.

In fact, the first half of the evaluation was evaluated by the vice-captains of each knight corps.

But.

This year was different.

「First half article evaluation committee member.」

Leah. Irina. Lydia Andalusia. (Debate and Politics subjects)

Camilla Rocinante. (Couple subject)

Echina Mir. (Monster subjugation subject)

“Are these the judges this year?”

Non-affiliated knights chatting in the corridors of the imperial palace.

They looked with interest at the bulletin board hanging in the middle of the wall.

“I can’t believe all the princesses are coming out… !”

“That’s right. “In the past, you never showed your face.”

The men were alone with their arms crossed and the corners of their mouths raised.

“Who do you want to impress?”

The black-haired man asked the golden-haired man.

“That’s right, Leah.”

“That’s surprising. “The first princess is more picky and cool-headed than anyone else.”

The man chuckled at his comrade’s question.

And then, she said, waving her finger.

“But you still push the talent you like until the end. Furthermore….”

The knight raised the corners of her mouth as if recalling her appearance as the 1st princess.

“You are so beautiful….”

“Really… “In the end, that’s what was important.”

The black-haired knight chuckled, saying he knew that would happen.

“Leah, you are definitely a beauty. But, you don’t even give her man an eye.”

The blonde man nodded his head in agreement.

However, he did not give in and his eyes sparkled even more.

“Yes, you are a cold person. But that’s what makes it more attractive.”

“Ugh… “Is that what you like?”

“What-. “Who do you really want to receive attention from?”

The black-haired man steadied his voice in response to her comrade’s question.

And, she spoke with eyes more knightly than ever.

“That’s right, Irina. Treats all knights equally and even has a benevolent heart….”

The imperial knight placed his hand on his chest as if he was moved.

“Moreover, after she became an adult, her previously innocent appearance became more feminine.”

She recalled her with a reverential expression, like the main character in her youth novel.

But soon his expression turned white.

A bush in the hallway garden where they are standing.

Because someone suddenly jumped out from there.

“You guys don’t know anything.”

An administrative man wearing a black uniform and glasses.

He smiled brightly and put his arm around the two people.

“The one who holds true beauty is Lydia.”

“Yes… ?”

The two knights furrowed their eyebrows in unison.

“No, of course Lydia is beautiful, but aren’t you just an adult?”

“Okay. “It’s a very precious atmosphere.”

The man with glasses raised the corners of his mouth at the words of his comrades.

“A cute person who wants to protect a woman is ideal. Especially when she calmly rests her chin, her appearance….”

The men looked at their comrade’s smile with disbelief.

Then, he immediately turned his face cold.

“Of course, the most dangerous one is this guy.”

“I agree.”

Colleagues playfully punched him in the stomach.

“I pity you who don’t know the true standards of beauty… !”

The glasses-wearing administrative engineer chuckled and ran away.

Colleagues chased after him to catch him.

“….”

Irina watched the noisy men from afar.

Then, she quickly sighed and headed to the royal family’s drawing room.

 ̄ ̄ ̄!!

She suddenly opens the door.

Then, in the central imperial palace, two princesses whose faces were not clearly visible came into view.

“Your appearance is rough, Irina.”

Leah sitting at one table wearing a white uniform.

She was looking at her tactic book with her legs crossed, coming out of her short skirt.

“It’s the last one, but it’s noisy…”

Lydia came to the opposite table wearing a school uniform.

She had a gloomy expression, resting her cheek on the back of her hand, as her subordinate said when he saw her outside.

“Ha.”

When the princess saw them, she couldn’t help but snort.

“What are you doing here?”

Irina placed her hands on her waist.

And, she spoke confidently while wearing black dance uniform leggings and a white blouse.

“You never paid attention to things like article reviews.”

Leah in a tight-fitting uniform.

When she heard those words, she glanced up from her book.

“Is there any particular reason? “I came here to find some talent.”

Lydia wearing a dress shirt and tie.

She chuckled, saying she agreed.

“Me too, I found a guy I like.”

Irina took a deep breath.

Then, she walked between the two princesses and sat down on her own seat.

She glances towards Leah.

She glanced at her oldest child’s sensual body, which caught her eye even though he was wearing a uniform.

Particularly eye-catching uniform dress shirts.

It is covered with a jacket, but it feels somehow larger than usual.

However, there was one curious thing.

Even though the clothes are obviously large, they fit her chest so tightly that they feel uncomfortable.

“What is it, Irina? “I think you’re staring at me today.”

Leah looked at her younger brother.

And, she smiled leisurely.

“….”

Irina looked at her eyes and she didn’t respond.

Because….

She usually had the cold and cold aura of a beast, but for some reason, she felt like a mature woman.

In that atmosphere, the second princess felt an instinctive sense of crisis.

“Why am I looking at you? “Don’t be mistaken.”

The second princess turned her head.

Thanks to this, this time she naturally looked towards her youngest daughter, the princess.

“Yeah, what is it? “Do you have something to say?”

Lydia met her eyes and played with her own pigtails.

Irina stared at that figure.

She immediately felt it.

The same sense of crisis I saw from Leah.

Lydia used to be seen as just a rambunctious girl.

She also has more curves on her body, and her eyes and aura have also matured.

“If you have nothing to say, just say nothing.”

The 3rd princess turned her face away, as if she didn’t want to show her changed mood.

But she could feel Irina.

Unlike before, she was sharp and hard.

Because the current Lydia was the symbol of a woman who wanted to be protected.

There were only three princesses in her drawing room.

And, she didn’t say anything in particular.

However, there was a sense of tension, as if just before a storm broke out.

“….”

Irina swallowed her saliva deeply.

Two blood relatives whose atmosphere gradually changes.

Stuck between them, she began to grow increasingly impatient.

Is it because of her impatience?

“I was with Veil a few days ago.”

The second princess opened the gates to war.

And, she proudly told of what had happened between her and him.
