88 – Assassination of the Princess (3)

So, I followed the princess and arrived at the castle in the royal capital.

Since I tutored her in the previous episode, she never came…

‘I look so handsome whenever I see it.’

A castle rising tall with the power to pierce the sky.

The soldiers there were quite sensitive, perhaps because it was before the war.

It looks like this on the outside, but what’s inside?

-Chung!

At that time, the guards urgently raised their swords at us.

It seems that the princess heard this in advance.

If you look at the fact that there is no inspection.

“How do you feel? Professor? How do you feel about coming here after such a long time?”

She whispers to me in her alluring voice.

I just answered calmly.

“Well, it’s the same.”

You might not know it when you first see it.

As someone who has already seen it quite a bit before, I think that’s just the way it is.

However, unlike me, Jane behind me looked somewhat surprised.

“As expected, the royal family is different.”

Jane, who was not usually surprised, said something like that.

Just in the garden, you can see all kinds of fountains and dragon-like statues.

Moreover, there are many items in the castle that can be used to buy a house.

Honestly, who wouldn’t be surprised to see this?

“So, princess. Are you going to take class right now?”

“Hmm. Rather than that, I will first guide you around the castle today. “You’ll be staying here for two weeks, so you’ll need to know the geography.”

The reason she talks like that is to tell us about her latest operation.

The story is that the assassin will be lured from a certain place and the exact location of the trap will be revealed.

“What about after that?”

“Hmm. “It will be time for dinner by then, so before that, let’s rest a little, eat dinner, and finish today’s schedule.”

“Yes. All right.”

With those words, Jane and I followed the princess’s guidance.

Even though I walked quickly, it took an hour.

Moreover, only the key locations for this operation were provided, not everything.

It is so wide.

‘It really seems like it would be difficult to live in a place like this.’

Some people may say that living in a castle is a dream, but even if you spend just a week here, you will change your mind.

Honestly, it’s usually a hassle to take out the trash, but how difficult would it be to move this large house?

It seems like it would be very difficult to live in such a large house.

When I was leisurely thinking about that.

“Professor. “I’ll call you when the meal is ready, so you can rest in the guest room for a while.”

“Yes. All right.”

With those words, Jane and I parted ways with the princess and Margaret.

So we were the only ones left in the hallway.

“······.”

“······.”

There was an awkward silence between us for a moment.

We quietly walked to our destination without saying a word.

Then after a while.

-Kkiik!

Soon we arrived at our destination.

When I opened the door and went in, there were the rest of the female group and Shinryong spinning in the air.

“Are you here? Professor?”

“I waited.”

“Thank you for your hard work.”

Three people waiting in the room as if they were waiting for me to arrive.

Then, Jane opened her mouth.

“As expected, young master, something happened.”

“Well, that’s right. “Since when did you notice?”

“I noticed it as soon as I arrived in the royal capital. “I felt like I was living in the princess’s shadow.”

“Hmm. Is that so? Anyway, Jane, you don’t know what exactly happened, do you?”

At my words, she nods her head without saying a word.

I briefly explained the incident that occurred to the princess.

After hearing all the explanations, Jane makes an expression of understanding.

“I see. For some reason, the princess seemed different from usual. And that’s why she asked me to tutor you.”

“Well, that’s right. It seems to me that the tutoring was just for justification. Anyway, first of all, I’ll have to call Sai.”

In fact, even though the assassin can be easily caught, there are two reasons why they turn around and deal with it like this.

One is to capture it clearly and lure out information.

The other thing is to give real combat experience to none other than Sai, the warrior.

‘Because it wouldn’t be a bad idea to have Sai fight against the Demon King’s Army officers before the war.’

I took out the communication crystal ball from the subspace ring.

Now, let’s infuse magic power into the crystal ball.

-I am not between today. I’m just a student. You dialed wrong.

They immediately show their intention to refuse, as if they foresaw the future.

He seems to have come to his senses recently, but as soon as I give him some free time, he just sits there.

“Hmm. What, should I go and force him to come? Or do you want to come on your own?”

-After all, this person is not a professor. It’s clear he’s the devil!!

“Thank you for the compliment. Anyway, please come right away.”

-Yes? It takes some time…

“Don’t worry, there are kids out there who can open doors everywhere.”

-Yes?

As Sai didn’t understand what I was saying, Rin and Ran’s voices rang through the crystal sphere.

-Uh, huh? What?

-The hero the master spoke of is here!

-Can I move it right away?

“Uh. “You can move it now.”

As I answered Rin’s question, a voice from Sai, who was in trouble in the world, came from the crystal sphere.

-Ahh! For a moment! Change your clothes!

The moment he finished speaking, Rin and Sai appeared before my eyes.

And completely naked.

“······.”

“······.”

There was an awkward silence between us for a moment.

Sai’s face turns red, perhaps because of shame.

The next moment, Sena looks at Sai and whispers in my ear so that I can hear.

“Professor, is it bigger?”

Yes? What?

***

There was a naked incident for a moment, but Ran brought his clothes right away.

I looked at Sai who had completely changed his clothes.

“Ah. “I feel like committing suicide.”

Looking at the distant mountains with empty eyes, he mutters this.

Rin scratches his cheek and apologizes.

“I’m sorry.”

“No. This can be happen. “Because I’m still a child.”

Actually, he is older than you.

“Anyway, Professor. Why did you suddenly call me? They said they were free for two weeks. “Is it really old?”

He looks at me with eyes full of suspicion.

No. I feel unfair too.

Someone would think I was trying to scam someone.

-It’s a good thing to be self-employed.

I ignored Jukchang’s words and explained what happened to the princess.

Sai listened to the explanation and nodded her head with a serious expression.

“I see. The Demon King’s Army executives…”

“Well, try dealing with him this time. “When will I ever have to deal with an officer of the Demon King’s army in such a safe manner?”

“Yes. Yes. Recently, there have been rumors that the devil’s army is on the move. Anyway, then when does the operation begin?”

“If you start at dawn…”

-Wow.

At that moment, a vibration rang out from the communication crystal ball.

I took it out and imbued it with magic.

-Professor. It’s almost time to eat.

The princess calls now that it is time to go eat.

I understand, she answered, opening her mouth before leaving.

“Rosé. “You know the princess’s plan, right?”

“Yes. Professor.”

“Then, please explain it to Sai properly.”

“I understand. Then we will be ready.”

“Yes.”

With those words, Jane and I left the room.

Soon, I took a step towards the imperial restaurant.

***

When we arrived at the restaurant, the princess, the emperor, and the empress were in sight.

No. Why are those two people there too?!

I thought I was going to eat with the princess and Margaret, but contrary to what I expected, there was a king of a country present.

I don’t know how to accept this.

“I’m sorry. Professor. “You two want to see the professor somehow.”

“Ah, yes. “It can happen.”

Well, let’s think positively.

To begin with, these two people are not people with a rigid atmosphere.

So, you can just eat like usual.

“Ahahahahaha, sit down. Professor Elric. “I heard a lot from my daughter.”

Look. They tell you to sit down and smile like that.

I sat down after listening to him.

At the same time.

“Honey. First, finish your meal before talking. “Let’s do it while having tea.”

“Okay. “Let’s do that.”

“Jane. “You shouldn’t have eaten anything, so please eat.”

The Empress naturally invites Jane to eat.

However, Jane shakes her head and refuses.

“No. “I ate before that, so I’m already full.”

As she said that, Jane stood quietly next to Margaret.

Hmm. I guess I’ll have to take care of it separately later.

Thinking like that, I quietly put the food in my mouth.

‘As expected, the royal family is different.’

Meat that melts gently in your mouth.

The juice that flows into the jelly hole.

I can definitely feel that the quality is good.

Not long after that, we finished eating.

We started drinking tea quietly.

At that time.

“I heard the story from my daughter. “She’ll be giving me tutoring for the rest of the vacation.”

The empress broke the silence first.

I shook her head up and down at her words.

“Yes. “The princess asked me to tutor her for the rest of her days.”

“I see. By the way, I often heard about Professor Elric’s reputation. Ordinary students and warriors are not monsters… “It made me a more dignified person.”

“Ahahahahaha. “Not to that extent.”

What a monster. Maybe I heard wrong?

As I smiled awkwardly and answered, the emperor next to me calmly asked a question.

“Anyway, Professor Elric. “Can I ask you a few questions?”

“Yes. “It doesn’t matter.”

“I’m asking this now, but how on earth did you find out the identity of the hero? Clearly, the royal family and Margaret know the hero’s identity. And I think only high-ranking officials in the church know about it.”

“Ah.”

Well, from the emperor’s perspective, I think he can’t help but be curious.

No other than the most important information has been leaked.

Just when I was about to throw a tantrum.

“I said it. Father.”

The princess sipping tea next to him stepped forward on his behalf.

Soon, she had her say.

“I spoke to him because I thought he was a trustworthy person. And I thought that there was no one other than the professor who could properly develop a hero.”

“Hmm. Okay. “If you are like that, then you will understand.”

Is it because of the way the princess has shown so far?

The emperor immediately agrees.

Soon, he asks a question in a voice full of curiosity.

“Then let me ask you one last question.”

“Yes. “I will answer anything.”

“Okay. “Then when can I see my grandson or granddaughter?”

“Yes…?”

Grandchild or granddaughter?

“Hmm? Why are you so surprised? Aren’t you sure you have a relationship like that with my daughter? “Her daughter was so proud to say that the professor liked her so much.”

“Uh…”

Me?
