Episode 45 – Festival 4 –

Questions about the emperor continued to pile up.

There was nothing I could do.

At least you need to know something to be able to do something.

To me, the emperor was that kind of being.

He is the pinnacle of imperial power, but to me, he is just another person who is far from power.

But he seemed to be very interested in me.

‘You never know. Since he came out after an internal meeting, he may have come to me with the feeling of grasping at straws.’

Because I knew information that had been forgotten even within Seonghwangcheong.

It may be that he asked me to come because of that point.

‘The worst case scenario is that I just figured it out. Maybe I asked. In this case… It would have been best to just get rid of it for not knowing… ‘

For a moment, I wondered if it would have been better to hide the truth and wait for the right time.

Thinking about the expression the prince had made, what he said was correct.

Seonghwangcheong should never be destroyed.

If the facts are not revealed, Seonghwangcheong, which already has many political problems, will become even more confused.

If Seonghwangcheong falls, I will lose my great shield.

It is said that the unknown is the greatest fear.

And the current Seonghwangcheong has lost the ability to suppress the fear of an unknown enemy.

That’s the problem.

‘… If only I had been born 10 years earlier. Seonghwangcheong wouldn’t have become this mess… ‘

Of course, what happened in the past cannot be helped.

What is more important is coping with what lies ahead.

I’m not the one responsible for the chaos inside Seonghwangcheong, so let’s just ignore it for now.

I kept walking while thinking about so many things.

The Comple Gacha I hosted caught my eye.

It still boasted great popularity.

“What, you came back alive and well?”

“Uh. “Is it a waste?”

“I was making the same amount of money, so if you died, I could have eaten it all.”

“Get out. “Even if he was executed, he would have been allowed to write a will, so at least it wouldn’t have gone to you.”

When I returned, Lucas welcomed me.

It would be right to welcome you. First of all, I’m glad that my close friend came back safely.

It’s probably right.

Probably not.

“So what’s going on?”

“I don’t know. “I think the emperor noticed something strange about me.”

“Aren’t you an idiot for still not noticing that?”

“No, not the stupid things I do, but my…” State.”

“That? Ah. No way. If that were the case, I would have called you a long time ago. “Even at this age, I would be called a genius, so I guess I would have called you out to show off to other countries, right?”

“That’s true, but… “

I still don’t know the emperor’s intention.

Even if it is possible that you found me. That is not something that can be decided by the emperor.

I wonder if they come to me from below because they feel the potential.

I tried to think about it that way.

This is a problem because the prince and princess came in person.

They told me to find out on my own at an internal meeting of the imperial family. The person involved didn’t come to me.

Those two people are the evidence that the emperor asked me to ask directly.

Because the only person who can move the royal family is the emperor.

‘I don’t know.’

Anyway, it seems like the emperor has no intention of opposing me right now.

As long as I live, I will find out someday.

Rather than that, I am now focused on making money.

Looking forward to meeting the emperor someday.

—-

My complete gacha, which lasted for two days, ended successfully.

Of course, a large amount of money was made.

The more money, the better. Later, you may need to purchase branches of the Silver Branch Tree or sap of the World Tree.

Since it is considered the same item as Dragon Heart, it will be difficult to obtain it easily.

In the end, a day passed and I finished work the next day.

We were eventually able to complete all of our schedules.

The time allotted to us is over.

“So what are you going to do now? “The first-year booths are all gone now. Is there anything you can do at the second-year senior booth?”

Academy land is limited.

Even if you exclude that, ideas for festival booths are limited.

Jerip Academy was troubled because of that.

If you compare first-year cadets with their seniors, it goes without saying that first-year cadets are at an overwhelming disadvantage.

Those attending the academy are either next-generation nobles or high-ranking nobles.

There are 0 customers at the booth they open for the first time?

Naturally, the academy judged that there could be psychological trauma and separated grades into separate grades.

The first two days are 1st year, then 2nd, 3rd, and 4th years.

If this happens, people may flock later to enjoy a high-quality festival.

The actual purpose of the festival is not to enjoy the booth.

It seems that many tourists come from the first day because the purpose of coming is to see the cadets’ abilities.

“I don’t know. “Let’s enjoy the festival too.”

Since I didn’t know what would be held at the festival, I didn’t really think about doing anything to make a fuss.

How do you know what your seniors will prepare and prepare for it?

If something comes to mind in real time, you can do it.

There was no need to prepare thoroughly.

“Let’s take a walk around the area first. “I just say hello to people I know and build relationships with my seniors.”

“Why are you speaking normally?”

“Because I’m normal.”

“Damn.”

Without much conversation, I walk around slowly and look for things to do.

Surprisingly, there isn’t much to do.

That’s what festivals are all about. It is decorated with special foods, experiences, etc.

Actually, it’s all over in 30 minutes.

This means that even though it is a festival, there is nothing left to do.

The purpose of the people who come here is to create relationships with future talents rather than just enjoy the festival.

Since it was broad daylight and it was a bit awkward to drink, I was wandering around looking for something to do.

“Huh? Abraxas English? “You can see it here.”

We met a wild princess.

Why are you wandering around?

Now is the time for second year students to open their booths.

Why are you here?

I looked at the princess with a questioning expression.

“I wonder why you are here. Who would dare say something to me?”

The princess answered my reasonable questions without any hesitation.

Uh. It’s not wrong, though.

Why is my rebellious temperament so explosive?

It doesn’t really matter if you don’t participate.

It wasn’t really a challenge, so I answered obediently.

“We are just looking for something to do. “I have to go somewhere with my friend. How about we talk later?”

“Oh my? Does that mean you don’t like me?”

“Wouldn’t anyone really hate it if they were asked to play with the royal family?”

“That is true.”

Because the princess was not very offended.

When I was trying to find something to do again with Lucas.

Lucas’ eyes lit up.

This was the look this bastard made when he thought of doing something stupid.

“Princess, is there anything you can enjoy at this festival?”

“There is nothing in particular.”

“Then, how about traveling with us? “Isn’t that a good way to do it?”

“Hoo? The reason is that?”

“Currently, it is almost impossible for second-year students to do anything purely for fun with the princess because of the political fight.

First-year students are still somewhat free from that problem, but there are few people of high status. “The answer comes when you see that there are less than 10 people who are earls or higher.”

“Are you saying I discriminate? “I have never done that.”

“It doesn’t really matter what the princess thinks. Given her low status, it is important that her own moods are synchronized with the princess’s moods.

Right now, a commoner spilled water on the princess, and Abraxas spilled water on the princess. “Both cases are the same act, but the fear of repercussions will be different.”

“That’s right. Surely, if Abraxas Yeongsik had poured water on me, I would have just received an apology and ended it. But if a commoner pours in… “

“Regardless of the princess’s will, the surrounding nobles will cause an uproar.”

“But why am I the one spilling the water? “Lucas, since you can’t use Auror, isn’t there a higher chance of spilling?”

“Just shut up.”

Lucas’ purpose was obvious.

I guess she knew that I was avoiding her princess as much as possible, so she did this to f*ck me.

If I were to fall for Lucas here, of course it would be a mess.

Fortunately, a method came to mind.

“Then, princess. “How about changing her hair and eye color for now?”

“Why are you doing this?”

“Didn’t you see how embarrassed the princess was when she came to my booth yesterday? She said that even if the princess had no intention of doing anything, she would embarrass everyone and try to accommodate her because of her status.

Imagine that His Majesty the Emperor suddenly comes to the academy without saying anything. “Of course there won’t be an uproar, right?”

“It certainly seems so.”

“The only reason there wasn’t an uproar yesterday was because the princess was a student at this academy and she was close to His Highness the First Prince.

Imagine if Her Royal Highness 1 suddenly appeared. What will happen?”

“Hmm. That’s right. Is there a wizard here who can use the art of disguise? “I can’t do it because I’m a knight.”

There is.

One person. Someone I know and will listen to unconditionally.

I immediately looked to the side.

A wizard was standing in front of me.

It gives off a very nice appearance.

“I don’t like it.”

Of course I would say no.

Because it eats up a lot of magic power.

Since you are betting on the princess, of course you will have to pay more attention.

“Princess. “Let’s force him to use it.”

But I have a princess.

The princess agreed with my argument.

You are the one who set this condition.

“Can you do it for me?”

Alice immediately asked Lucas.

There is no escape route. Can you really refuse it?

“You bastard.”

There was none.

Lucas obediently followed my instructions.

Lucas’s magic drains from his hands, draining the color from his hair.

The hair and eyes, which had been golden in color, soon lost their color and took on the color of pure silver.

From noble mtl dot com

It was very good.

Unless you look closely, it will be difficult to recognize that she is a princess.

Let me smile and be satisfied.

Lucas had just created a new trap and trapped me.

“Ah. “I’m tired, probably because I used a lot of magical energy.”

“Of course you’ll be tired. “I told you to be tired.”

“So I think you should get some rest? So, please have fun with the princess. Then shall I go? Princess. Bye and enjoy.”

Ah. Damn it.

I was hit.

Lucas, you bastard. You were aiming for this from the beginning.

If there is a scandal with the princess, even if it is not true, I will be politically involved. Seriously.

While I was feeling anxious like that. The princess continued her words to calm me down.

“I understand what you are worried about. “How many people will recognize me?”

“When I think about it… I guess so. “If the face is unfamiliar, there are cases where people can be distinguished by their hair.”

A person’s hair color has a huge impact on their impression.

The face is the most important. This is a world where photography is not well developed.

Unless, like me, you urgently need a photo of His Majesty to make a fuss, I don’t take many photos.

So, there will be few people who recognize Princess Alice, whose hair color has changed, which is the biggest part of her impression.

I thought so.

“Kayayak! “I guess Princess Alice and Abraxas Youngsik are dating!”

“Really? I don’t think so? “You have silver hair.”

“Of course you would at least disguise yourself. What would happen if the princess went around openly with her boyfriend? “If you do that, she can tell you it’s not her.”

“Then let’s pretend we don’t know.”

“Yes.”

The sound of whispering from afar penetrates our eardrums.

I guess you don’t think you can hear it.

I am an Auror Swell, and the princess is also an Auror Swell, so I can hear everything.

Looking at the princess’s face, the same embarrassed look was evident.

‘Why did I get caught? No, I can’t immediately recognize a person who was only mentioned in WFS… ‘Do you have any pictures?’

No matter how much I thought about it, it was hard to realize.

How on earth did they find out?

‘Those guys… Now that I think about it, it feels somewhat familiar… ‘

As a result of looking closely at those people from the corner of my eye.

I knew the correct answer.

Those guys…

These are the people who gave me the signal of romance comics.

There’s no way those kids don’t know my face.

People who are easy to play with, such as the princess.

‘It’s ruined.’

Of course, human madness escaped my thoughts.

An ordinary person like me cannot touch it.

How can one have such madness?

“Let’s run away for now…” Alice.”

Since there were more problems when using titles, only first names were used.

There are quite a few people named Alice in this land.

“That… “Yes.”

Did you realize that you would get caught if you used your usual authoritative tone?

Princess Alice also changed her speaking style to a slightly more normal tone.

The princess and I begin to walk around very slowly.

Fortunately, as a result of looking at the feeling, the female cadets left to do other things on their own.

… Maybe we’ll talk about it there too.

Usually it will end up as a rumor.

Right now, stories about romance comics are only spreading among first-year female students.

Even though Theseus was teasing me about it.

But that wasn’t the only problem.

While Alice and I were looking at the guide and thinking about what to do.

Because someone spoke to me.

“Brother?”

“Huh?”

When I looked back after hearing those words.

I could see a familiar face.

Abraxasil, my younger brother who is 2 years younger than me.

He was standing behind me.

“Brother. Who is that? “Is this your brother’s girlfriend?”

“Huh? What?!”

And my younger brother suddenly asks if the princess is my girlfriend.

But my misfortune did not end there.

Because my younger brother is not an adult yet.

Because there was someone who came here with me.

That thought popped into my head.

When I looked around, I could see.

“Abraxas… ? Who is the lady next to you? “Do you have a girlfriend?”

My mother.

If a man and a woman are walking around alone during a festival, are they a couple?

They must be a couple.

Ah. Lucas is a bastard.
