45 – Does it contain sugar?

-Ahhhhh… Whoa!

Maya let go and cried.

As if he were going to vomit out all the world’s sorrow.

Touch Maya’s little head. My head, which hasn’t cooled down yet, is damp and hot, but I don’t care.

Eventually, her crying stopped and Maya bowed her head while holding her by my collar.

-Heeep!

I could hear intermittent hiccups.

I placed my hand on Maya’s head and raised my sword. It’s time to slowly build a grave.

Maya doesn’t let go of my collar, and she often follows me.

“I will bury your sister in a solid and deep ground. Are you okay?”

-Pooh… Hi! Yes.

Maya nodded her head softly.

She’s given a choice, so there’s no reason to hesitate.

I climbed a stone mountain with a cave. It is a small mountain made of stone, the ground is strong and there are no monsters.

The grave will not be dug.

I picked a place with the strongest ground and concentrated my magic on the sword.

Tsu-tsu-tsu!

An iron sword that glows with light.

I cut the stone and threw it out like scooping dirt with a shovel.

Maya gets away from me and pretends to cut stones with an iron sword, but it doesn’t work.

“Wait outside.”

-That’s… But.

“Recovery after training is also important. Sit on a flat stone.”

-…… Yes.

Maya reluctantly agreed, then glanced at me several times.

Is this the first time you broke my word?

I won’t rest when I tell you to rest on the rock. I gave him a glare, and only then did he start walking on a flat stone.

After confirming this, I turned my head.

‘It’s been a long time.’

Let’s finish quickly.

I focused on digging stone mountains.

A long time ago, a deep pit was created, and I put my sister’s corpse in it and piled up the stones I dug up.

The round stone tomb has been completed.

A tomb made by stacking large and small stones.

Overlapping with the view from the top of Dolsan Mountain, the quiet atmosphere of the night descends.

I turned to Maya.

“Maya.”

Maya, who was sitting on a rock, made eye contact with me and turned into a blank face.

Looks lost all evening tonight.

“Come here. Pray.”

I stretched out my right hand. Maya hesitated for a moment, then got up as if possessed. Then he came slowly to me and carefully grabbed my hand with both hands.

“Stand next to me, put your hands together.”

I placed Maya beside me and put my hands together.

Maya struggles in the air as my hand moves away. The guy immediately saw me and put his hands together.

In front of the completed stone tomb of her older sister.

To pray.

I know how to pray, but I didn’t do it often in my previous life.

I just saw the knights who were with me for a while praying.

I closed my eyes.

To be honest, I’m not the type to depend on something. It is a weakness to obsess over the dead.

However, to overcome his fear as this little fellow weaned his suckling.

You must have a strong inner self.

Maybe the existence of Sister Yong will take its place.

I thought on the stone mountain where the moonlight fell.

A large bonfire with lots of firewood.

Maya, who has released her transformation, is covering her face with animal skin.

As we warmed up in the front yard of the cave, Maya asked me.

– Sabu-nim…… Why are you nice to me

The feel of a log pressing against your butt.

Sitting on a log, I checked the time on my device and answered.

“Need a reason?”

-…… No.

“Yes.”

I answered briefly.

I know that Maya is starting to develop affection for me. It’s probably the affection you want from your parents, from your teacher.

This is usually the case with children without parents.

I have seen many war orphans in my previous life, so I know it through knowledge.

Although I’ve rarely met him directly.

“Be strong. Train hard If one day you beat me, that’s enough.”

I wonder if this was the reason?

-…… Yes!

With a hoarse voice, Maya answered vigorously.

“Repeat tomorrow what you did today, see you tomorrow.”

It was late.

It was time to head back, so I packed my things.

– Sabu-nim…… ! Thank you… I’ll wait!

Maya threw off her leather garment and raised her head, thumping the massive dragon’s body.

It was very funny how the dragon’s eyes turned red.

The next day, early morning.

After meditating in the men’s dormitory room, I heard the device alarm sound.

Sounds coming from inside the chest of drawers.

The device I originally used was in my bag, so it was different.

I opened the drawer and checked the sound.

A lumpy silver device.

I got it from the 3rd Princess Cornelia. I had no use for it except when I met the female knight Rose or the new sword Altair, so I left it unattended.

What message did you get?

I picked up the device and checked the screen.

☆Cornet for benefactor★: How are you? I reviewed court etiquette this morning ^^ – 11.08

☆Cornet for benefactors★ : Perhaps… Are you thinking of getting a pepero? – 1 Minute ago』

As soon as I saw it, I had a question.

What is a cornet? 3 Since Princess Cornelia called me benefactor, did she shorten Cornelia’s name?

I checked.

『Moonlight: Is it Cornelia?』

One minute of silence. A minute later, a reply came.

『☆Cornet for benefactor★: Yes!』

That’s right, 3rd Princess Cornelia.

I didn’t use the device often in my previous life, so I didn’t know the name I used for the device.

I refused. Cornelia says she will give her Pepero, but she has no intention of going all the way to the princess’s palace to eat one of those snacks.

『☆Cornet for benefactor★: I… I’ll ship it to Charles Academy. I only know that the place where my benefactor lives is Charles Academy, right? You just need to receive it. It’s a protein pepero with no sugar! It is good for muscle health.”

A somewhat rushed message.

I thought all of my information went to the royal family, but didn’t it?

I only know that the place where I am is the Charles Academy.

I thought.

If the pepero delivered to the academy and sent by Cornelia is good for your muscles.

There’s nothing I wouldn’t like to receive a pepero for.

I agreed.

3 Princess Palace Star Palace, bedroom.

It was still early, so Cornelia, lying on the bed and touching the device, took a deep breath.

“Whoops!”

A feeling of tightness in the body.

I received an unexpected reply from my device.

『♡Benefactor&: Is it Cornelia?』

A message from Wol-gwang, the benefactor who saved her.

It was a reply that came in 5 days.

‘Ugh… I got a reply from my benefactor!’

Cornelia has sent several messages over the past five days.

I want to personally contact my benefactor, Moongwang.

However, Wolgwang had not been contacted for five days.

Has the device been lost, or is it intentionally ignored?

I felt like my blood was drying up more and more, but the reply finally came.

Cornelia had her heart racing.

‘The benefactor is finally… I have to reply.’

Cornelia put her eyes close to the device.

The benefactor asks if he is Cornelia. She could easily answer yes, but Cornelia was afraid that if she answered incorrectly, she would be cut off.

She’s a benefactor who hasn’t had any messages for 5 days.

But no matter how much I think about it, I can’t come up with anything other than a simple answer. Her long words will come as a burden to the benefactor.

In the end, Cornelia gave a short answer.

『Cornet: Yes!』

Cornelia answered briefly and regretted it.

She should have been kinder…….

『♡Benefit&: Pepero will refuse. I don’t eat sugar.”

Cornelia’s hair went white.

Since today is Pepero Day, I wanted to show sincerity to my benefactor, but she was rejected.

Cornelia froze on the spot and let go of the device.

From noble mtl dot com

After a while, Cornelia grabbed the blanket and regained her senses.

She herself is her 3rd Princess Cornelia Innin Ishtar. As a survivor of a long political struggle, she does not give up with this setback.

Cornelia bit her lip and let out every word she could.

If he doesn’t like sugar, just give him a pepero without sugar.

『Cornet: I… I’ll ship it to Charles Academy. I only know that the place where my benefactor lives is Charles Academy, right? She just needs to pick it up. It’s a protein pepero with no sugar! It is good for muscle health.”

After her reply, Cornelia stood still, glaring at her device.

Her heart thumps thump thump.

Will approval come or not?

The die is cast.

『♡Eunin&: Got it』

The feeling of uneasiness was washed away with a short reply.

After confirming the positive answer from her benefactor, Cornelia held the device.

“Kyaaah!”

A shameless scream as a princess.

Cornelia collapsed on her bed and struggled with her happiness.

Near the gravity room in the morning.

Cynthia leaned her back against the wall next to the entrance to the gravity chamber and waited for her Evan.

According to Hecate’s intelligence, Evan came to the 5x gravity chamber every morning.

If you stay near the 5x gravity chamber, you should be able to see Evan.

‘…… I’ll have to wait.’

Cynthia looked down her aisle, inserting her left hand between her textbooks.

Pepero is cleverly hidden between the class textbooks.

This pepero, hidden so that no one can see it, is the pepero of Cynthia’s conversion.

I made a reservation a week in advance with the capital’s most famous patissier.

She has the name of Gramberge, so she made a reservation, but she’s a guy you don’t usually see.

‘…… It’s just a sign of sincerity.’

A master giving encouragement to his pupil.

But why her heart beat so fast, Cynthia put her hand on her own chest.

Thump thump, her heart beats so fast that she can hear it.

Cynthia took a deep breath.

It seems that she is still lacking in training as a professor.

Twenty minutes had passed, and a silver-haired male student wearing a training uniform was walking by.

Evan Innin Grace.

As expected, he came to exercise.

Cynthia lifted her back from the wall, her eyes twinkling.

Evan is coming.

Cynthia’s heart was still noisy.

“Evan.”

“…… Yes.”

Evan noticed Cynthia and paused.

Anyway, at the academy, I often run into familiar faces, so there’s nothing particularly strange about meeting them.

Cynthia put her hand between her books, trying to ignore her restless heart.

“Take this.”

“What is this?”

As Evan looked at Cynthia’s hand, Cynthia pulled out her pepero from her hiding place.

“Today is Pepero Day. Eat and work hard on your studies.”

“Does it contain sugar?”

“Yes.”

“No need.”
