Chapter 504 – 41. Dezac Empire – Imperial Academy (1)

The opening ceremony venue was noisy.

Not a new school year, but a new semester.

Recently, the imperial family’s support for the academy has increased significantly, and it is full of new things, such as building a building on the academy site and inviting a new professor, but that is also gradually reaching its limit. There are not many students who will focus on the opening ceremony followed by boring speeches and introductions.

However, the principal’s words that followed caught everyone’s ears.

“…… Then, I will introduce the transfer students for this semester.”

Transfer student.

It’s not strange, since transfer students come every semester to the Imperial Academy, which got its name differently than it did a few years ago.

However, among the transfer students this time, there were some that attracted the attention of the majority of students.

“…… Lastly, the 7th year transfer students Kang Yu-ri, Fiora, Sasha, and Valdez.”

Following the name of the principal, the party of warriors who had been waiting in the back came forward one by one.

The transfer to 7th grade had strict conditions and few merits, so this semester only four transfer students from the warrior party. As such, the party of warriors gathered on one side was enough to attract everyone’s attention.

The chairman became noisy in a different way than before.

“That’s the warrior’s party…”

“Hmm. Neither of you have last names.”

“What’s important about that? More than that, all four of them are 7th graders?”

“Looks like everyone has the skills.”

“I don’t know.”

Among them, the ones who showed the most interest were the same 7th graders.

The Imperial Academy of the Dezac Empire is a way to learn by applying for the lectures you want to hear.

Even the lectures he listens to suit his aptitude his, so there are not many points of contact just because they are in the same grade.

However, there are common lectures for 7th graders, and they will be together at various events.

It’s perfect for building friendships under the guise of coincidence.

Because of this, the 7th graders who wanted to become friends with the warrior party for political purposes liked it, and on the contrary, students of different grades, even though they had the same purpose, regretted it. Among them, there was one with blonde hair unique to the royal family and blue hair.

‘Ugh, why are you in 7th grade…. If it’s possible, come to the 6th grade!’

6th Princess Evangeline Dezac.

She glared persistently at a man on the podium.

The man is bewitching the students with a handsome smile.

Seeing that, Evangeline felt her heart race.

‘No, why do you keep smiling!’

It shouldn’t be there.

The more people gather after seeing her impure intentions or face her, the tougher the task she is assigned to.

Evangeline recalled what had happened roughly a month ago.

The Emperor, the father whose face is not easy to see like his children because of the busy construction.

For a prince without talent and a princess, that was even worse.

It’s a shame that Evangeline is getting good grades in her academy her, but her royal family her, who has a lower rating than her, meets her emperor once a month at best. She didn’t even do it one-on-one, but between several people.

Evangeline is also not much different.

At most once a week. But she doesn’t have a long time.

With no love for her parents or greed for the throne, she was not disappointed.

Instead, it was time for her to start worrying.

‘His Majesty will correct it, but I don’t know when he will decide on a successor.’

After that, with the Emperor’s connivance, a bone-and-strife between the brothers would take place.

Like the emperor did.

She decided to find another way as Evangeline, who was not confident about riding the clique.

Neutrality.

But it also needs to be capable and successful.

Her emperor’s secret order her to seduce Valdez and throw him into her empire was the opportunity she had been waiting for.

‘That’s why I can’t miss this.’

Death to solidify the imperial power.

Just imagining it is terrifying.

Her head her bowed as she trembled in fear.

“Whoa.”

In the first place, nineteen princes and princesses were too many.

We cannot ignore the possibility that some will change their mind and seek asylum in a foreign country. As the empire grows, so does the danger. But can the reason that they are brothers and sisters be able to leave her relatives behind?

Most of them are half siblings who only share the same father, much less close to each other to this day. Even if there are cases where two or three go together, the rest have lived their lives on their own. In the end, what remains will be one of those scattered factions.

“I hate that.”

‘I… I will definitely survive.’

Evangeline is determined to seduce Valdez and fulfill the emperor’s secret mission no matter what.

6 The princess bit her lip and raised her head.

‘Ah.’

Is it because of my mood?

For some reason, it felt like I had met eyes with Valdez.

Evangeline’s thoughts her were not mistaken.

‘Surprised.’

Valdez was looking around the venue for the opening ceremony and looking at the students.

Not all of them, but from time to time, you can see the faces confirmed in the report of the demon intelligence unit. There were some faces that I didn’t want to resemble due to the limitations of the painting, but I was able to figure it out with the Master’s keen eye. It doesn’t matter anyway, as long as you’re certain of a few important things.

Then, she was slightly surprised when her eyes met the 6 princess.

Of course, she blushed first and averted her gaze.

‘What kind of man are you trying to seduce?’

Seeing her shy attitude her makes me laugh.

For the past month, I have approached it by pretending to be a coincidence, but what I am doing is too clumsy. It’s not that I can’t look after her, but she has no reason to pay her attention to her. I don’t know if it was before admission, but now it’s time to get busy.

“What are you doing? Let’s go down.”

“Yes.”

The introduction of transfer students is the last step of the opening ceremony.

She didn’t have time to introduce herself, so she went down the podium at her leisure.

“Something feels very strange.”

Yuri, who was the last to come down, spoke.

“Are you going to the academy?”

“Uh. Like I said before, I went to school in my original world. A university that’s at least similar to an academy.”

“Ah, just hearing about it makes me want to go.”

“I want to go. Umm, wouldn’t it be difficult? No, should I meet the goddess later?”

Yuri tilted her head at the sudden question.

The goddess who brought the twins to this world.

She met the goddess and asked her to become a warrior to save the continent. When she heard her words of her, Yuri naturally had doubts about her return to her. But she could n’t ask because her twin brother was about to die for joy at the words of another world with the warrior next to her, and she parted before she even asked.

Even though she is not sure that she can return to the original world, she casually took on the role of a hero because she has no regrets.

Her family is only one anyway, and there is no one close enough to miss her.

‘On the other hand, here…’

She turns her head and sees the two friends going in front, and Valdez.

Here, even Wilhelmina and Arsha, who are not here.

It is the best relationship that cannot be compared to anything on Earth.

Even if I told him to go back, I wouldn’t go.

I want to remain in this world even if I am forced to, and live with the man I love and with them who share the same husband as her best friend her. Now, I have the foundation to do anything for them, and I have the mindset to do anything.

“Hehe.”

Kang Yu-ri, a warrior who suddenly laughs without hesitation.

Fiora, who was leading the way, was taken aback at the sound of stupid laughter coming from behind.

“What, what, suddenly?”

“Huh? What?”

“Why are you suddenly like that… Ugh, no.”

“Hehe. Yes♡”

“…”

After the opening ceremony for the second semester, the students gathered in the auditorium dispersed.

Full-fledged second semester and lectures start next week. This week is just introduction of transfer students, explanation of changes in the school, and application for lectures. For this reason, experiential lectures for publicity were lined up everywhere.

“So, what are we going to do now?”

“We should split up too.”

Valdez cut it off and answered.

“We’ve already decided on the lectures we’re going to listen to together. So let’s go around and listen to something that looks interesting.”

It’s very comfortable to have someone I know at the academy.

Especially if it’s a person who has a high reputation in the academy and even the principal can’t treat him carelessly. You can learn the contents of the lecture as well as various information. If there are no special changes, the three lectures are confirmed.

‘I’d like to use my lecture time, but….’

It’s difficult because you don’t know what lectures your target audience will take.

What’s more, unlike being known as a prosecutor, you can’t even listen to an absurd lecture.

So leave that to the other three.

“Ummm, okay.”

If it weren’t for the embarrassment of having common subjects, I would have protested the reduced time with Valdez.

Swallowing regret, the group parted.

Contrary to what they said, they were also interested in the academy’s lectures.

The list of lectures secretly saved by Yu Eli, who is a professor of anthropology, was quite long, and of course, I was interested in seeing three or four titles. Among them, it was her turn to attend her lecture, which Yu Eli assured her that she was not bad.

“Let’s see. Then I…”

The place Valdez went to was a building lined up with academic lectures.

It was because I was afraid that my skills would come out even by mistake while learning swordsmanship lectures.

The justification was that he had become a knight from a commoner, so it was enough to increase his academic discipline.

‘Moreover, Elim, the daughter of a military general, must also be here.’

However, it wasn’t Elim that Valdes encountered first.

“Oh, Mr. Valdez!”

“…”

Upon hearing her familiar voice her, 6th Princess Evangeline greeted him with an awkward smile.

“Do you go this way too, Mr. Valdez? This is such a coincidence!”

Could it be a coincidence?

He knew long ago that she had followed him from behind. He was just getting attention because he wasn’t coming any further. But again, he came over and greeted me as if it was a coincidence, which made me feel sorry for him even though it was annoying.

‘I met the wrong parents….’

More than anything else, the awkwardness and intent on her face her show almost all of it.

It was to the point where he felt even more sorry for the 6th princess.

“Hehe, see you here!”

“I see. Are you also going to listen to the hands-on lecture, Princess?”

“Yes, that’s right. And in the academy, such strict titles are forbidden!”

“Ah, I’m not used to it yet, so I make mistakes, again and again.”

“Then it really can’t be done! Right now, classes aren’t open in earnest, so it’s against the school rules.”

“Haha, yes. I’ll be careful.”

Although her 6th princess her was annoying, there was no way to drop her her as her her Valdes her.

Besides, she’s not completely useless.

That’s good, as long as Angelina sticks by her side her, her desire-filled aristocratic children her won’t come close. Most of those who could be so greedy were below the count’s son, and even the 6th princess, which was not a big deal to them, was burdensome.

“Which lecture are you going to take?”

“Ummm. First of all, it’s a deep military strategy. I haven’t learned much from that side.”

“Aha. Military strategy is essential for any knight to be promoted.”

“That’s right. I’m in the warriors’ party right now, but when the work is over, I have to go back to being a knight of the Kingdom of Ulstro.”

“I see.”

6th Princess Evangeline clung to Valdez’s side and continued to chatter until they reached the building.

It’s like when I met her before, and I wonder where she keeps finding conversation topics like this and talking to me. Thanks to that, it wasn’t too bad for Valdes to give her an appropriate answer and rest her head her. It’s nice to hear a chattering voice.

And as she got closer to the building, she was met with her face as she hoped.

“How are you two?”

“Elim!”

“Yes?”

‘Look at this?’

Her Runs to her Elim and greets her her and her 6 princesses her.

Valdez’s eyes turned strange at her unexpected relationship with her.

She thought that Evangeline might be more useful than she thought.
