How to Survive at the Academy-Chapter 211
Be restrained, Ms. Yenika (2)
The next morning, the hut where Yenika lived was noisy with the sound of fighting with the spirits.
When you wake up, you have to go to the royal dormitory where Princess Penia is staying, so dress up properly and come out.
It was definitely me who said that, but I didn’t know that I would spend so much time dressing up anyway.
As for me, I’m just wearing a red-brown robe on top of my usual shirt. However, it was quite a high-end product, so it was never at the level where I heard that it did not fit in the seat.
For Yenica, who is a commoner, she seems to be arguing with the mirror all morning, whether it is too burdensome to wear a dress suitable for a meeting with the royal family.
It didn’t seem like it would mean much to say that there is no need to think hard.
As I sat near the campfire and idly trimmed my bow, I heard the sound of an in-depth discussion with the spirits from the inside of the hut as to which color skirt would be better and which hairpin would be better.
It would also be a burden for me to brush up on it, so I waited as much as possible within the time limit.
About 15 minutes later, Yenika came out wearing an unusual bluish skirt and an amber blouse. A shawl engraved with a cosmos pattern, like her trademark, was wrapped around her slender shoulders.
Along with the persimmon hairpin, the beautifully braided hair is impressive. Even if she didn’t have to borrow the maid’s hand, Yenika knew how to tidy up her hair in a half ponytail so that the left and right sides were just right, and braid the side hair neatly.
In fact, dexterity is not a girl who can get away with it. The same goes for the outfit.
“Uh, how about Ed?! Check it out!”
“…test?”
“If you wear this outfit, even if you go to the dormitory of the royal family, you won’t be beaten at the door?! Hey, what’s the dress code like there?! Do you think this is too strong? W, as expected, do you want to take off the hair ornaments?!”
It’s fine, let’s just wear it casually.
I am well aware that this is the wrong answer.
“It’s a bit strange to say that I’m a prosecutor… Well, it suits them well anyway. You look like a lady, Yenika.”
“lady!”
No matter how much meaning was given to that stone word, Yenica suddenly sighed and carefully raised her arms in front of her and quickly lowered the tone of her voice.
“Yeah, yeah. right. If you’re going to a place like the royal family’s dormitory, you shouldn’t be making such a frivolous voice…”
“Yenika… Acting so unnaturally is the biggest problem… You don’t even have to worry about her voice.” ƒrēenovelkiss.com
“no. What should I say like this, I will speak in a calm, one-toned voice.”
It felt as if something had subsided and it was very different from the usual Yenika.
“Is it right to leave the cane behind?!”
It was useless to see the tone quickly rise in just two words, but…
*The royal residence is quite far away from the living and teaching dong, which has a lot of floating population. It is a space decorated like another world on the cliffs of the west coast of Aken Island, and it is a place that is filled with doubts as it is a place where almost no one is allowed to enter.
If you look to the west from the end of the magical goods trading district in the living quarters, you can see the end of the royal residence building in the distance, but that’s all that ordinary students can see.
If students sometimes run around the island to exercise or take a walk and approach the imperial residence by taking the wrong path, they are blocked from going backwards. Thanks to this, this royal residence is only rumored to be a rarity.
Of course, I have visited quite a few of these royal residences. This is because there are several records of how Princess Fenia was personally summoned.
However, from Jenica’s point of view, visiting the rumored imperial family’s dormitory is something to be very nervous about, or walking down the path leading to the dormitory is to make a fuss.
“I try to go to a place I don’t normally go to, so it’s kind of like… I feel like I’m deviating a lot.”
He was hesitant as he walked down the driveway, showing a nervous expression.
In fact, it would be fun to leave it alone, but there is no bad taste to flirt while watching people get in trouble.
However, I can’t think of any way to relieve the tension, so I decided to take the time now to bring up the stories I had decided on yesterday.
“Jenica. After all, there was something I had to tell you.”
“yes? me?”
“yes. That is why I am attending this school.”
As I trudged along the road, I spoke in a manner that seemed to be of little importance.
In fact, it is a very, very important story. But if you talk like that, Yenica will listen to you again, and the way she behaves reverently is good in her eyes.
I don’t want to talk too much while giving too much meaning, so it was a good idea to talk about it secretly on the way to the royal residence.
In a tone that seems to throw something like it’s not a big deal…
“If you stay like this, you will all die.”
“…”
“…”
…in fact, it’s a futile effort.
It is not a story that can be listened to without any burden, no matter how much you twist your body that you do not want to burden it.
And, it’s not even a situation where you can be considerate of others by talking about a feeling of emotional burden.
Every day flows naturally like water, but I know that only disaster awaits at the end of this day.
Sitting by the fire of a secluded camp and intoxicated with the scent of the peaceful northern forest, there are times when you almost forget it.
However, it should not be forgotten. We must be aware that the future, in which all will die if we stand still, is fast approaching.
I remember the shape of a dragon that roared over the sky.
In particular, Yenika is the girl who helped carry Velbrok’s molars out of Aken Island. Together with the apostles of Telos, they had to fight and fight, and in return, they had to lay ill for days with blindness for days.
So… it wasn’t difficult to convince Yenika by discussing the reason for the fight that day.
A quiet road to the royal residence.
The conversation between me and Yenica was quite bloody, unlike the peaceful-looking path.
Talking about death and the future… no matter how hard I try to brighten it, it doesn’t work.
It was unavoidable.
*“I was waiting. But by any chance… where are you uncomfortable?”
The captain of the escort, Claire, was waiting at the entrance of the royal residence.
The imperial dormitory, where the people of the imperial family reside, is not as huge as the Ophelis Pavilion. However, the Ophelis Hall is a communal dormitory shared by dozens of distinguished guests, and the royal family dormitory is a building built for only one person.
No matter how noble a distinguished guest, the only space allowed for him is the private room of the Ophelis Hall.
Even Saint Clarisse was the best room, but only one room was allowed as a residence.
This is the part where you can clearly feel how special treatment is given to Princess Fenia, who is living in a newly built luxurious building.
“Oh, no…”
Claire looked at Jenica and tilted her head.
Claire also had a look of embarrassment on her face, which seemed to have a feeling of crying for some reason.
“I just came and told you some depressing stories. it’s okay.”
I stopped Claire and asked him to guide me. Claire nodded and led us to the princess’s room.
Basically, the royal residence, which consists of two buildings with a garden in the middle, uses the building on the left for the users and the building on the right for Princess Penia.
A marble building that stands neatly on the side of a cliff. We thought we were going through the lobby on the first floor towards the reception room we had come to before, but Claire passed through that door, climbed the stairs, and led us to the front of a large wooden door.
This is the private room used by Princess Penia. From the entrance, it is splendid and strong.
In <Sylvania’s Failed Sword Castle>, it is a place that you can visit several times to do Princess Fenia’s request as an individual event.
Since it is a place designated as a secret area in the corner of Aken Island, the entry conditions were very complicated.
“By the way… Even if you think Ed has a lot to do with it… Why did you call me?”
Yenika asked Claire before meeting Princess Fenia.
“That’s… you can go in and check it out yourself.”
Having said that, Claire opened the door, and Princess Fenia’s room came into view. And, on the terrace side, the owner of this room was seen.
It is completely different from when I was taking a class in the professor building.
Inside, she lives without receiving any special treatment according to the will of Sylvania, the land of learning.
Princess Fenia, who was sitting quietly in the middle of a dazzling room just by looking at it… when she saw the faces of me and Yenika, they sent me a hint of hello.
“Welcome, Ed. And Yenika.”
Princess Fenia was sitting on a wooden table spread out on the terrace side, reading a book in the sun.
And as soon as our eyes met, I closed and opened my eyes slowly and talked.
“Sit. I have a story I want to share. Maybe both of you are interested.”
“…”
“Slowly, it is time to seriously discuss the competition for imperial power.”
*“If Selaha comes to power, the Roth Taylor family will not be safe. If you are lucky, you may step down as a marginal aristocrat and slowly fall down.
With her old-fashioned blonde hair hanging down and wearing a comfortable lace dress, Princess Fenia spoke slyly.
“The conversation with Tanya, the student council president, is over. I decided to defend the Roth Taylors.”
“Is that so?”
“yes. I’ve known Tanya for quite some time. Even before becoming the student council president, she stayed at the royal dormitory, and I knew from the start that she was a completely different person from Crepin Roth Taylor.”
As the workers came out of the car, Yenica quickly got up from her seat and crawled to accept it, so I stopped her.
In this case, it is more convenient for the other person to stand still.
Yenica, who had rarely received any kind of hospitality, turned around in an uncomfortable way, but I calmed her down by pressing her on the shoulder.
“And you, Ed Roth Taylor.”
“…”
“I’m not going to say that I don’t have any political intentions. In any case, the Roth Taylor family has formed a large force within the imperial family for a long time, so the remaining power cannot be ignored…
Princess Fenia is not as naive as she is.
He is not a person who is soft enough to make a national judgment just because he can’t stand it when he sees injustice.
“As long as Roth Taylor’s name is still there, if you absorb the remaining power as it is, you can absorb the bureaucrats who still have knowledge of internal affairs. So I… stand for the Roth Taylors for these political reasons.”
Princess Fenia has spoken clearly.
On the contrary, it was like her to speak clearly without such a fussy part.
“But…aside from that, I’m well aware that you, the Roth Taylors… aren’t the same cripples as Crepins. It’s one of the biggest incomes I’ve had since coming to Sylvania. When you take the rudder of the family, at least it will be very different from when Crepin led it.”
However, the greatest characteristic of Princess Fenia was that she did not act solely for such computational reasons.
There was a reason why she was nicknamed the Princess of Charity.
“Political gains can be gained by sitting at a desk and looking at documents and thinking deeply, but it is difficult to judge people unless you see them with your own two eyes. So, if you want to get a ‘person’, you have no choice but to jump on your feet.”
It was this part that made the crucial difference from Princess Selaha and Princess Persica.
Princess Selaha sees status and authority.
The Persian princess sees power and practicality.
And Princess Fenia… sees people.
Princess Fenia summoned us and the words she wanted to say came out now.
“Defeat Dyke Elpelan in the Krestol Grand Festival duel.”
Princess Penia put down her teacup and talked calmly.
The name of the person who came out of it was unexpected.
“You mean Dyke-senpai? The news that the two are going to clash has already been heard. I’ve met him a few times.”
“The El Phelan family, who produced the Dyke, is the one who believes and follows Selah Selah the most. In fact, even if Selaha did not try to convince her, it is a force that would have been attached to her.”
Dyke himself doesn’t seem to be very attached to the Elpelan family.
Still, at least it’s a place that feeds and nurtures her, so she’s just doing the bare minimum.
In any case, King Dyke Elpelan cannot be completely free from the will of the family. It is because of his personality that he does not forget what he received.
“You are going to strengthen that relationship by winning the Grand Festival duel and giving the honor to Selah Selah. When it’s time for the festival, Abamama will also come to Aken Island, and I don’t know about Persica unnie… Because Selaha unnie never misses a place like this.”
“I never thought it would be so important.”
“Initially, it is a national event that is held only once every four years. We will travel to various estates, but we cannot help but stop by Sylvania, where the future talents of the Empire are gathered.”
Princess Fenia gently brushed her platinum blonde hair. The knuckles protruding through the gently falling hair were so pale that they were not white.
“I won’t even tell you to win a duel and make me proud. At least please stop Sellaha and the Elphalan family from getting stronger.”
“Is that a variable that has a huge impact on the competition for power?”
“I have a plan in place. The Elpelan family… will be the cornerstone of the downfall of Selaha.”
Princess Fenia had a somewhat unreasonable face.
All kinds of gossip and water fights that have plagued him since childhood.
Because now, he knew he had to jump into it too.
“We have to tear a rift between the Elpelan family and Sellaha Sister. The beginning… this duel.”
However, it is not forcibly justified. Accept the fact that if you can’t avoid it, you have no choice but to dip your feet.
Apart from Tanya preparing to strike Princess Selaha on the head, Princess Fenia is also preparing to catch Princess Selaha.
“You know something.”
“Please help me. Sellaha’s taking power is nothing good for the Roth Taylor family.”
“That… if it’s Dyke-senpai… you’re the 4th year combat team leader, right?”
Yenika spoke as if worried.
Perhaps it was too much of a burden, the girl who hadn’t even eaten the refreshments provided by the users… raised her voice as if anxious.
“I heard rumors. All the seniors in the 4th grade acknowledge and pay tribute to Dyke.”
“That’s right, Yenica Palerover. Even when you were a senior, you were admired by third-grade students, but Dyke Elpelan has an aura that is completely different from that. Absolutely… it feels like a spiritual supporter.”
Rumors have already abounded.
Dyke Elpelan is a blunt man among geniuses.
Among the students belonging to the combat team, he was almost the last to enter, and without any talent, he rose to the top with only grit and hard work.
The reason why people who do not see the light and do not have natural talents respect Dyke is simple.
He is the savior of all who have experienced falling into a wall. His presence is a consolation that supports the mind from despair.
Some even say that rising to the top position itself is a symbol of natural talent.
However, those who can say that are those who have never seen Dyke El Phelan practice.
“One thing I can assure you is…”
Nevertheless, I have spoken.
“…I win.”
Absolutely beyond certainty.
Fenia opened her eyes wide for a while at my words, as if as if assertively, then settled it down.
“If you want, you can even win by an overwhelming margin.”
Still, he’s the one who took the top spot in the first grade. It is also the highest grade.
Can you say so easily?
As I watched Princess Phenia staring intently at me with such thoughts in mind, I spoke in a suggestive way.
“What the hell are you planning, please tell me.”
* Too many geniuses on this small Aken Island.
Sitting quietly in the dungeon in the Obell Hall, Dyke Elpelan gave such a monologue with a grin.
I also attended this academy for almost 4 years.
Even though I’m approaching graduation, I don’t feel like I’ve reached the right level.
If you are walking down the path of a warrior like a turtle, you will see many geniuses who hit your back and overtake you.
Although they are barely walking on the stretched road, sweating profusely, they feel irrational in their natural ability to stretch out without a drop of sweat.
Send them all first. There are times when I feel discouraged by the speed of those who are passing me… Nevertheless, Dyke Elpelan just stares at their tails and walks away.
If you go sluggishly like a tortoise, you can see the geniuses lying on the side of the road, exhausted.
There are a lot of people who meet a wall, bump into it, fall down, lamenting that this is the end of their abilities, and then find another way out.
Dyke Elpelan stepped on the backs of such geniuses and climbed to the top of the ranks.
Although it was later than the others, he broke through all the barriers and sat down on the throne.
The ability to respond to basic magic is also poor. It is not innate in strength or skeletal strength. Although he came from a famous family, he did not receive proper support until he rose to the top position due to his incompetence.
He had little to no education, and it was around the age of ten that he started writing letters. Reading the vassals’ books one by one, he learned the characters by self-studying overnight.
When he came to Sylvania, he trained his almost non-existent magic sensitivity all night long. He trained his magic by enduring the years of hardship until he reached the fourth grade, but even at this point in time, he couldn’t get even a tenth of the sensitivity of a typical Magician student.
At the very least, I was able to handle enough magical power to use in physical battles, so that was all I needed.
That doesn’t mean he’s born with physical abilities.
He has a heavy body and a lot of ragged muscles, but all of this is the result of overtraining and training his body to the limit.
His knuckles were abused until they were pickled in blood each time.
The number of fist knuckles and gauntlets that have been broken for 4 years and have to be reclaimed exceeds 200. Except for the time to sleep and the time to eat, it must have been a life in which only effort and training continued.
After all, this body is not a given one, but acquired one. Although he had strong muscular strength and a huge body, he couldn’t get as much effort as he had innate sense of battle.
Compared to Dyke, who trained for several years, Ziggs Eiffelstein, who systematically learned combat for just one year, had a much sharper sense of action.
Slow, dull, and heavy.
That was the story of the growth of a man named Dyke El Phelan.
“I will learn a few things. Dike-senpai.”
The hard work was recognized by the bachelor’s degree.
And, it was recognized by the students.
Even Wade Callamore, the proud first-year combat team leader, bowed his head once.
Exchange competition for students belonging to the Sylvania Combat Team.
It was a small event where the chiefs of the combat team of each grade gathered and had a light battle in front of the students.
Dyke stood up from his seat and looked at the senior students on the podium.
Wade Callamore, First Year Chief of the Combat Team.
He received a lot of support from the renowned swordsmanship family, the Callamore family, and was trained, and his skills were already far beyond the level of a freshman.
Think back to when you were a freshman. Let alone the chief, he hadn’t even learned how to properly punch his fist.
Sophomore Senior Claviers Nortondale.
That boy is already much stronger than Dyke at this point.
Natural talent is already a blessing from God. Clevius himself thinks it is a curse, though.
Senior Drake Reagans, 3rd grader.
He is also a gifted genius. The bow he handles never misses. The level of sophistication of the technique used to handle the long sword was amazing, so I couldn’t even think of being an archer.
Although he freely handles various weapons, his ability to guarantee an accurate hit more than anyone else as far as throwing and projectile weapons is…
Everyone… When they were in 4th grade, they had the talent to play lightly with Dyke.
It was quite funny to me that I was treated like a senior by them just because I was in high school.
“Is there anything you can learn? I’m also fighting to learn.”
Dyke raised his heavy body and made a low and majestic voice.
“…it’s time for me to slowly relax myself.”
“…by the way, you had a fight with Ed Roth-Taylor.”
“Yes, that high-ranking nobleman in the 3rd year Magic Department.”
Dyke Elpelan closed her eyes and remembered the old-fashioned blond nobleman she had seen in the practice range. grumpy face. He had a face that seemed to see through everything in the world.
Dressed in a neat school uniform and wearing a wizard’s robe… I’ve seen the man standing proudly in battle over and over again.
could easily find out.
“Maybe I will.”
He is a genius that stands out more among geniuses.
You may think of yourself as a hard worker, but those who have lived their whole lives as a real hard worker will know.
Clevius lowered his eyes and spoke hesitantly.
“Dike-senpai… is he going to lose…?”
“okay. He has already reached a point where you can’t see it.”
Dyke closed his eyes and smirked.
It was only after he assumed the seat of Sylvania that he seemed to hear the laughter of the vassals, who poured out all kinds of support, claiming to be members of the proud Elpelan family.
Nevertheless, as a family that provided a place where they could eat and sleep when they were young, they did their best.
However, the reason why I couldn’t laugh at the letter from the family asking me to raise the name of Princess Selaha after winning the tournament is not because such a family is rude.
Dyke also understands the fact that vassals who have a lot of political concerns have no choice but to move on their own.
It was just that he wasn’t sure he could beat Ed Roth Taylor.
“If you lose… in your family…”
“Why do you care about that, Clevius Nortondale.”
Since Clevius is well aware of the circumstances of the prestigious samurai family, he expressed his concerns to Dyke. However, Dyke responded with a smirk instead.
“Did you rush to Lucy Meryl because you thought you would win?”
When Dyke spoke like that, Clevius was speechless.
“You would understand.”
Wade and Drake didn’t understand their conversation.
But Clevius seemed to have some idea what Dyke was talking about.
Rainy Day. The entrance to the Ophelis Hall.
I remember the scene when I ran towards Lucy Meryl with a sword while still bleeding.
Dyke Elpelan is one who understands the speculation.
“If you were born as a man, there are times when you have to rush in even if you know you will be defeated. Of course, you have to do everything you can.”
Dyke smiled and stood upright in the dungeon. There was no sign of running away, no sign of fear.
Clutching his knuckles, he stood up straight as if he was going to face three students at once.
It was a new thing to announce the name to the combat students.
According to the bachelor, the king of blunts.
This is King of Power, Dyke Elpelan.
*“Well, by the way… Princess Fenia… It’s a rude word…”
While we were talking about the competition for the throne and Princess Selaha, Yenika, who was sitting next to me, intervened.
She was not used to this kind of atmosphere, so she sat quietly for a long time.
“I… after all, I… why did you call me…?”
It’s hard to just sit still and listen. In the end, Yenika couldn’t stand it and asked first.
Yes. This duel event has nothing to do with Yenika.
Nevertheless, Princess Fenia even invited Yenika to the royal family’s dormitory.
This case is to tell a different story.
No, you may not be able to say that it has nothing to do with it at all.
“…Selaha unnie is the one who values status, dignity, authority, and dignity the most. You and I… have very different opinions.”
“Is that so…”
“Of course, there are a lot of people who can be appointed as representatives of their own factions, as they are associated with a lot of people from noble families. People of great status will come out supporting Selaha unnie just by saying her name.”
In that direction, Princess Selaha works diligently.
“But… I need someone who can be the face of my forces, even from my standpoint.”
“Ed… you mean…?”
“Ed Roth-Taylor is a great person, but as I said, it’s clear that he comes from a vested interest and a high-ranking aristocrat. It can’t be helped. Because you are from where you are.”
Princess Fenia looked down at the teacup and said.
“We need someone who has come from commoners, climbed up from the bottom, and reached the top with only his skills. The ‘capable people’ I want and hire are… those people.”
Yenika was just nodding her head, staring blankly at Princess Phenia’s face.
This content is taken from freёnovelkiss.com.
…Have you not yet realized that this is your story?
“Jenica Palerover.”
Perhaps Princess Penia thought so too, this time she spoke clearly and directly.
“…you have to go a little further.”
“…”
It took a while for Yenica’s answer to come back.
“…yes?”
In fact, it was vague to even give an answer.
