345 – Taming (3)

Recently, Dan Ye-rin has become increasingly distraught.

Maybe that’s why she can’t sleep well at night, and she checks her back often.

All of this is because of rumors that reach her ears. Rumor has it that war is brewing in the East.

In fact, it is one of the long-standing rumors that war is in the air. However, recently, the severity has become very severe.

‘It’s like those proud families sending their children to the academy.’

First, children from famous families came to the academy to escape. This increased credibility.

Originally, the East did not often send students to the academy unless they were commoners. This is because of a somewhat conservative way of thinking.

Even if it is not an academy, they have their own unique teachings, so why should they send them to an academy? This feeling is widespread.

It is because of this tendency that the East is called a country full of mysteries. Because little is known, it is full of mysticism.

Does that mean our national power is weak? That’s not it again. Not only does it have political power, but its military power is also very strong.

In particular, individual skills are higher on average than in the West. This is because people, not monsters, often fight among themselves.

Moreover, since government affairs are said to be inviolable, disputes between famous families are not touched even by the imperial family.

The reason is pretty simple and clear. There is nothing good about messing with the imperial family, and famous families do not mess with the imperial family even if they are crazy.

No matter how much a family flies and crawls, it is meaningless in front of the ‘army’, the pinnacle of human power. The imperial family also ignores it because they don’t want to see blood.

‘Roughly speaking, that’s all the places you need to be careful about.’

Dan Ye-rin looked at the list of new students written on the paper. About half of the new students are from the East.

Half of them are Huan Empires, and the other half are Federal States. It’s truly a composition that makes you bleed just by looking at it.

‘Lee Yeon-ju said she was talking to the federal side, right?’

Dan Ye-rin touched the list of people from the federal bureau with a pen. The busiest person right now is Lee Yeon-ju.

How busy are you that you lie down on your desk and fall asleep every time you take class? Her activity time is at night, not in the morning.

At night, Lee Yeon-ju changes from a clueless student to a skilled assassin. I can’t tell you how surprised she was when she first saw it.

‘Luckily for her, her interests coincide with hers.’

Originally, Dan Ye-rin was also the target of Lee Yeon-ju’s assassination. But maybe she was lucky, or maybe it was fate, but Sivar stopped her.

Didn’t she do that and build a relationship of understanding by resolving misunderstandings between them? If you think about it, Sivar saved her life twice.

‘If something like this happens one more time… It will really be fate.’

Dan Ye-rin believes in fate. Strictly speaking, she was thinking of it as the next level of coincidence.

Once was a coincidence, twice was inevitable, and the third time was fate. Sivar fulfilled the second step.

In a desperate situation where a person’s life is at stake, does he come to the rescue at the right time? You can’t believe it unless it’s fate.

So Dan Yerin always included Sivar in her plans. She may ask his will, but she is already a fateful community.

‘Now that Yeohye has returned, information about Sivar must have also reached the imperial court. There will be people watching Sivar.’

Even if the relationship between the imperial family and the families is not good, they tend to come together as one in the face of foreign invasion.

So, there must be people from the Hwan Empire watching over Sivar. This can be certain.

‘But it might not mean much.’

Here, something unexpected happened even to Dan Ye-rin. Sivar became an assistant.

This means that once you become a teaching assistant, you will have more opportunities to contact first-year students, and vice versa.

Dan Ye-rin was worried here. From what she heard, Sivar was elected to a class filled with people of interest.

There are many people from famous families who need to keep a close eye on them. Dan Yerin looked at the list and thought about it.

‘Even if they are a famous family, they are not loyal to the imperial family. There are many people who are dissatisfied.’

In name it is a civil war or rebellion, but in reality it is a war of independence for the Commonwealth. The justification is much better over there.

The problem is that the Hwan Empire’s power to control public opinion is beyond imagination. Even the rumors going around are about rebellion and there is no mention of independence at all.

Therefore, the federal government will distribute public opinion to the academy. The truth about the forced annexation along with the corruption of the Hwan Empire.

Of course it won’t be easy. If you open your eyes and get your nose cut, you are protected from illness, but the Hwan Empire is far from being protected from illness.

‘My head hurts.’

However, Yerin pressed the bridge of her nose. Politics is always complicated and gives me a headache.

The imperial family and famous families are nothing more than bean flour. This is no different on the federal side.

You never know when, who, how, or where a betrayal will occur. This is a world where even having someone you trust is a blessing.

“Haa…”

Dan Yerin let out a long sigh and looked out his window. The sun has already set and it has become dark.

After her classes ended, she almost never left the dormitory. If she went out, she would be in trouble.

Sometimes, all I can do is see Yeonju Lee come and go through the window, or head to the room next to Sivar’s for a meal prepared by her.

Lonely and lonely At times like this, I was jealous of Grace, who was said to sleep holding Shivar.

It wasn’t just normal envy, it was crazy envy.

-Sweet

However, Yerin looked behind her without realizing it. It was a habit she started out of anxiety.

Since she was in the imperial palace, she has received countless assassination attempts, so this is a natural trauma.

She got better when she was young, but even she became an assassin. She has only one person to trust.

‘How can I keep Sivar by my side…’

Loneliness is not the problem. Shiva is necessary for safety.

Lee Yeon-joo is not suitable to be her escort due to her her personal problems, and she never knows her when he will hit her in the back of her.

For Dan Ye-rin, Sivar is the best and essential. She thought again.

‘It wouldn’t be a bad idea to skip a step.’

The target that Sivar is currently protecting is Grace. If she gets permission from Grace, things will go smoothly.

However, if that happens, there is a high possibility that Grace will also become embroiled in Eastern politics. Dan Ye-rin was concerned about that.

“Whoa…”

Dan Ye-rin sighed again at the complicated thoughts. It’s a pretty long sigh this time.

How can I make things easier? How can she keep Shivar by her side?

As long as you have Sivar by your side, the difficulty level drops dramatically. The reason is because of his power

A trustworthy person has the military power of a general? This alone is a huge advantage.

‘Really…’

Dan Yerin smiled bitterly. At one point, her mind was filled with only thoughts of Shivar.

He is a strangely attractive man. A pure and kind heart. Ridiculously strong and decent appearance.

He lacks nothing and has specifications worthy of being a prince from a foreign country. I couldn’t help but be jealous.

-Knock knock knock

At that time, someone knocked on the door of Dan Yerin’s room. Dan Yerin heard the sound and instinctively became alert.

She didn’t forget to put her hand in her arms while being alert. If the situation arises, I plan to throw away my hidden memorization.

“Dan Yerin. It’s me. Sivar.”

“Shivar?”

“Yes. Let’s eat.”

Did you say that even tigers come when you tell them to? The person who knocked on the door was Shiva.

Dan Ye-rin relaxed his guard when he heard Sibar’s speaking distinctive style and voice her. Peace came to her heart.

“Oh, by the way. Grace is not there today.”

“No?”

“Yes. It’s in the lab.”

“Right to the palanquin.”

Dan Ye-rin jumped up from her chair when she heard that there was no one in the way. She is acting uncharacteristically of herself.

-Boom!

“Hundreds of millions.”

Maybe that’s why I stubbed my little toe her on her her desk her leg her her. Dan Ye-rin opened her eyes and bowed her body.

The most terrible pain in the world came from my little toe of hers. She hit so hard that she was bruised.

“Turn it off…!”

“Dan Ye-rin? Are you okay?”

“It’s okay. I just bumped into it…”

Yerin, however, managed to get up despite her frown. She can’t give up a cozy dinner like this.

She then limped on her feet and barely made it to the door. Even if she wanted to manage her facial expressions, it wasn’t easy.

“Are you really okay?”

“It’s okay, you don’t have to worry.”

“I don’t think it’s okay. Should I hug you?”

“Oh, no, not that much.”

I want to ask you to hug me. But her strength as a princess overcame it.

Soon, Dan Ye-rin headed to the room next to her, slightly shedding a cold sweat. As soon as she entered the room, her delicious smell stimulated her sense of smell.

‘Now that I think about it, you’re also good at cooking.’

Sivar boasted excellent cooking skills as long as he had enough ingredients. It’s truly an amazing ability because it has even whetted my appetite that I didn’t have before.

The problem is that even insects are delicious for me. Dan Ye-rin glanced at her tingling little toe and sat down.

“Grace is in her lab her her her?”

“Yes. I said I would be late today.”

“That’s good.”

However, Yerin could not help but feel her happiness surging behind her pain. She will be able to relieve stress as Grace comes late.

Sibar, perhaps aware of her feelings, just gave her a blank expression.

“Come on. You eat too.”

“Kheng.”

Finally, I finished all of Neoburi’s food. Neoburi’s dexterity has improved recently and he uses spoons neatly.

Dan Ye-rin looked at Neoburi with curiosity as she ate while holding utensils in both hands.

Just looking at the dexterity, I was confused as to whether it was a human or an animal. Moreover, he can even understand what people are saying.

‘Did you say that was a spirit object?’

There are numerous spiritual creatures in the East, but Dan Ye-rin has never seen them in person. So she was even more amazing.

After a cozy dinner, the two had some alone time.

Dan Yerin quietly observed Sivar cleaning up after her and then opened her mouth.

“My dear.”

“Huh?”

“Did anyone talk to you while working as a teaching assistant?”

First of all, let’s start with his life as a teaching assistant. Although he has only been an assistant teacher for a short time, I am curious.

Moreover, there are many people of interest in Sibar’s class her her her her her. As Dan Ye-rin, I needed to get at least some information.

“Who is talking to you?”

“Yes. They argue about trivial things, or they are curious about your abilities.”

“There were a lot.”

“There were a lot…”

It’s as expected. However, Yerin nodded her head.

Even if it is not a rumor that has spread to the Hwan Empire, interest in Sivar has reached its peak.

There will be quite a few people who want to see his military power. Maybe there will be someone applying for a sparring match soon.

‘If that happens, it will become complicated for the opponent as well. The worst case scenario is an assassination attempt…

To be honest, it never occurred to me that Shivar would be assassinated. First of all, he has no sleep.

This is not just a metaphor; there is really no sleep. This is something he realized when he had a drink with him.

It is a condition that can be said to be not only suitable as an escort, but also the best. That’s why I became more greedy.

“How did you react in that case? Did you ignore it?”

“Um…”

Sivar rolled his eyes and told the truth.

A student who looked like Eom Seok-dae made a suggestion, and the suggestion was accepted.

The more Dan Yerin listened to his explanation her her, the more her expression her her hardened. She has already shown a variety of abilities.

“······I see. Was there anything else besides that?”

“There was.”

“What is it?”

“I just asked about this and that. Not about abilities, just simple conversation?”

“Okay. Talk…?”

Dan Yerin paused for a moment. All sorts of assumptions passed through her mind.

Among the people who pay attention to Shiva, are there only those who give ‘negative’ attention?

Maybe there are people who like him and give him positive attention.

“What topic was it divided into?”

“Nothing much happened? Just let’s get along?”

“Is it a woman?

“Huh?”

“I asked if she was a woman.”

The reason why I thought this way is because Dan Ye-rin herself is doing that right now.

There are even quite a few people of the opposite s*x who have a crush on Sivar. When Dan Ye-rin saw it, there were at least three people.

So, it is not impossible to seduce Shivar and make him your own.

For Dan Ye-rin, this is the worst of the worst. A family that is left with nothing but despair.

“Women are right.”

“······I see.”

“Why?”

“There is such a thing.”

However, Yerin said that and took out the bear bag she had hidden in her arms. Her hands were shaking as she took out the bear bag.

Sivar looked at that figure blankly and quietly pointed out.

“Yerin.”

“Uh, huh?”

“Smoke outside. No smoking inside.”

“······Hehe.”

Dan Yerin smiled slightly. Even his comment made her laugh.

‘Even if I don’t know who it is, I definitely have to do a background investigation.’

******

Meanwhile, at that time, the women’s dormitory.

“Puchwi!”

The blue-haired princess, Reina, sneezed.

It was quite a cute sneeze that did not match his cheerful personality

“What is it?”

Raina tilted her head for a moment before focusing again.

She was currently looking at a dictionary of the common language. This is to use the official language freely.

“I am a girl… No, no. I am a girl…”

There is still a long way to go.
