How to Survive at the Academy-Chapter 223

Poisoned Chalice (4)

“I’m glad you’re in good health. Penny.”

“no. You have worked really hard to come a long way. Abama.”

The next itinerary was dinner at the royal residence where Fenia was staying.

As the emperor came to inspect the dormitory where the youngest daughter was staying, the inside of the royal family’s dormitory was neat and tidy than ever. The section where we came to eat was in perfect cleaning condition so that we could feel the enthusiasm to get rid of even a single grain of dust.

In front of the supper, which was prepared to break the legs of the splendid table, Emperor Chloel, Selaha, and Fenia continued their meal.

“Sister Persica didn’t come. I thought you wouldn’t miss a place like this.”

“Isn’t there a lot of cases where I stayed in the library whenever I had spare time and didn’t attend the royal schedule? The fourth older sister, when she was so immersed in something from a young age, did not pay attention to anything else.”

Emperor Chloel, who was just happy with the conversation with his daughter, asked Princess Fenia a lot of her current affairs.

Fenia, who went out to foreign countries at a young age and practiced learning, was so special that she sometimes smiled kindly.

Unlike when he always sits in the audience with strictness, he has a rather casual appearance. There is no need to show dignity on the body because the servants have few eyes to see.

Seeing that he had laid down the weight of the emperor and returned to a single father, Fenia felt his heart soften as well.

“Oh… I was very worried about you at first too, but seeing that you are adjusting so well, I feel at ease. Penny.”

After a while, Princess Selaha spoke out of nowhere.

There was an unwritten rule between the three princesses. At least, in front of Emperor Chloel, I want to be a loving sister.

Of course, as Emperor Chloel, he knows that the relationship between the sisters is very uncomfortable because of the dispute over the succession of the emperor.

Still, he did not want to bring political disputes to the public. After all, it’s a bloody family.

“I was very surprised when I heard that just after entering the school, the eldest son of the Roth Taylor family was excommunicated.”

Soon after, Princess Selaha broke her luck.

It was the story of when Princess Fenia excommunicated Ed Roth Taylor. It feels like a long time ago now, but at least two years have passed.

“It’s the first time you’ve seen a kind person trampling on someone so actively, so you thought that a lot had changed as you came into contact with the new environment.”

“Selah Sister.”

“It’s not that it’s bad. Anyone who reigns should not overlook the injustice of those below him. but…”

Princess Selaha spoke softly as she cut the meat the user brought in with a knife.

“The Ed Roth-Taylor I saw at the duel today is doing well in school.”

“Because excommunication from the family does not mean expulsion from the Sylvania Academy. If I wanted to, I would have been able to carry out my will to the Sylvanian Bachelor and be expelled from the school…”

“I didn’t do that. If you’re just a dumbass anyway, even if you don’t make an effort to be expelled, you won’t be able to pay the tuition, so you’ll fall off on your own.”

However, Ed Roth-Taylor remained attached to the Sylvania Academy until the very end.

If that’s the case, it’s possible to give up everything and go out to the city to beg for a living.

According to what Princess Selaha found out, a man named Ed Rothtailer set up a hut camp in the North Forest and continued his wild life.

It was only fragmentary information collected over half a day, but nonetheless, it was information that was reliable to some extent.

“And, I also did the lottery at the social church at Roth Taylor Mansion… In fact, it is safe to say that I have restored my original status. Penia, did you stay still when you saw this?”

“I knew I was wrong.”

Selaha’s intentions were known to Fenia. to scratch

It was to emphasize the fact that he was using the authority of the imperial family to push a high-ranking nobleman into a corner, and to be rude.

Princess Penia struck with the Jeonggong method.

“Ed Roth-Taylor wasn’t a cruel and ruthless man to be excommunicated. I had to waste years of suffering because of my misjudgment.”

“Penia. If you live as an imperial family, you cannot always make wise decisions. It is not uncommon for a single wrong decision to put someone’s life at risk. Even if you make the right decision.”

“It would be. But that doesn’t mean the damage goes away.”

Princess Fenia spoke only that far and lowered her eyes.

Selaha laughed out loud at the sight.

The screenplay is so perfect.

Ed Rothtailer, who was excommunicated from the family for Fenia’s wrong decision and had to crawl on the floor.

A mistake that even Penia herself admitted.

And, Ed Roth-Taylor, who had to go through a painful period due to that mistake, regained his position by self-made by himself.

And that Ed Roth Taylor praised Selah’s merits. Even at the end of a dramatic duel meeting.

After the duel was over, Emperor Chlo?l met Ed Rothtayler with Sellaha to congratulate him.

The impression of Ed Roth-Taylor, who looked reliable and dignified, seemed to have a great affinity for Emperor Chloel.

The appearance of a human named Ed Roth Taylor, who is winning again with his own strength, emphasizes Penia’s error and at the same time reveals the merit of Selaha who put him back on track.

In the eyes of Emperor Chlo?l, it would seem that the reliable older sister has rectified the mistakes of her inexperienced younger brother.

It couldn’t be more perfect.

Ed Roth-Taylor… his very existence elevates Selah’s own political position.

In addition, seeing the appearance of Princess Fenia who looked strangely unconfident, new possibilities opened up in Selaha’s head.

Princess Fenia, who always errs because she cares too much about the lowly things in everything, is only seen as a foolish idealist in Selaha’s eyes.

An emperor is one who reigns.

A person who looks sluggish while looking at the things below is not suitable as a monarch.

Didn’t Ed Roth-Taylor know about that too?

If you think about it, it’s strange.

Fenia is the one who threw Ed Roth Taylor into the abyss, so why is Ed Roth Taylor attached to such a power of Princess Fenia?

Judging by the appearance of the man I have met a few times, he is a man who knows the qualities of a ruler.

He is the kind of person who always looks for answers without making a small mistake or getting caught up in unexpected situations. freёweɓnovel.com

In Sellaha’s eyes, the qualities of a writer named Ed Rothtailer are clearly visible.

He is a werewolf who is not easily tamed. It is very strange for such a person to voluntarily bow his head under Penia.

‘In the first place… wasn’t he deeply loyal…?’

Selaha glanced at her chin and pondered for a moment, then asked Fenia as if thinking about it.

“By the way, I heard that the man is close to you.”

“Actually… it’s not that close. He seldom goes to the royal family’s dormitory, and is a man who stays in a hut and only cares about his own business. In fact, he doesn’t seem to have much interest in the title of duke.”

Is it possible that Ed is holding the lead in the relationship between Fenia and Ed Roth Taylor?

When that possibility dawned on her, Selaha resisted the burst of laughter.

I mean, does it mean that someone born with the blood of the imperial family is swayed by the master duke?

Even Princess Fenia is more sincere than expected.

He was genuinely angry at Selaha’s move to make Ed a political scapegoat, and even slapped him in the face.

At the imperial meeting, there was even a move as if they were trying to reinstate the Duke of Roth Taylor.

Being so active, I thought that Ed Rothtailer was really lying flat and loyal to Fenia… but it was the other way around.

‘You’re really gone, Penia. The blood of the royal family is shameful.’

A man named Ed Roth Taylor is a powerful weapon, but there is no point in holding it in the hands of a human who does not know how to wield it.

Gradually, the man’s surroundings and the end of his work seem to come into view. I think I can understand why he suddenly praised himself at the duel.

Like Penia, did you think that you could easily hold and shake it?

However, Selah seems to have overlooked the fact that she is completely different from Fenia. Should I say cocky or ambitious? His defiant demeanor makes me laugh.

It doesn’t seem like it would be too difficult to hold the man in your hand if you put your mind to it. During this festival, a specific methodology comes to mind that will completely pull the man towards the power of Selaha.

While slicing the meat with a knife, Princess Selaha smiled deep inside.

*Orte and Seyla, who were looking at the hut full of vitality, could not keep their mouths open.

In the end, Lucy, who had no reason to return because the concert was over, and Belle, who had no choice but to follow because of the uneasy situation, accompanied him.

When I first crossed the forest road in the North Forest, I think I imagined that there was even a mansion of the Duke Roth Taylor family hidden in the forest…

Unfortunately, this hut camp is absolutely nothing to call a mansion.

“The second floor is my personal engineering workshop. The first floor is where I mainly live. Most of the work is done near the bonfire, so all the utensils… the cooking utensils are all gathered around that area.”

“Sah, it’s very different from what I imagined. Eh, Master Ed.”

“Well, it would be a lot different if you thought of a lavish and luxurious life. In the first place, I feel more comfortable living like this.”

Ed put the suitcase on the workbench, then sat down on a stump near the bonfire and talked.

“And… that’s your daughter’s hut.”

The shock that Yenica Palerover, who she thought was living a luxurious life in the Ophelis Hall, was living a wild life in a corner of the forest like this.

Orte almost lost his mind at this, and Seila felt dizzy for a moment.

“Uh, since when?”

“It’s been about a year.”

“1 year…?! Then… Then…”

By the standards of the Failover couple, if a man and a woman in their prime lived together for a year on a street like this… In fact, it means the same as seeing everything.

Could this be the world of nobility? Is it possible to live together like this casually?

Saila lifted her eyes for a moment and looked at Yenika, who was sweating coldly as she sat on the opposite tree stump.

“Why didn’t you tell me right away…! Yenika…!”

“That, that…”

“Hey, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, my, [to] have such a romantic school life…!”

Ed’s method, which took a position to reveal the truth confidently through the Jeonggong method… was not wrong either. If you shyly try to hide this kind of thing, it becomes more suspicious and things get twisted.

Orte and Seyla are open-minded parents, even pretending to be.

It’s not at all like the style of scolding a daughter like she’s going to kill her for living a wild life and living close to an outsider.

Then Ortega applauded and laughed out loud.

“Is that so… Yenica is already that old…! What a romantic camping life in this wild… Surely, there must be such a romance…! I never thought that I would be stuck in the corner of a rural ranch forever, living like a cow milking or milking a woman…!”

“Dad… your voice is too loud…!”

“Uh-huh, no one is listening to what…! It’s definitely a nice forest…! Ed, I saw you again! I was just imagining that he was an aristocratic and old-fashioned person, but surprisingly, you understand that this is a man’s life!”

“…it’s not something that’s going to float like that. It’s just an unavoidable circumstance, so I started my camping life.”

“Nevertheless, you must have loved the huts and camps that are so great. Otherwise, it would be impossible to build a place with so much love!”

Ortée also tended to be good at carpentry and dexterity. It was Orte’s responsibility to repair all the tools in the Palerover Ranch.

That is why I could feel the warmth of Ed’s camp here and there. No matter what anyone says, Ed Roth-Taylor is very attached to this camp.

“Besides… the man Yenika was talking about must have been Master Ed… I wonder if this Orte saved the country in a previous life…!”

“Is that the guy Yenika was talking about?”

“Wow! aah! The weather! The weather is so nice!!! By the way, did you say that you cook with the meat that Mom and Dad brought?! What are you going to cook?! Can I help you?! You don’t know where the household items are? You must be at a loss, I’ll help you! Ed is no fun if you know ahead of time, so let’s get into the hut first!”

Bell almost burst into tears as she watched Yenica fluttering and thrashing around. I wonder if there is any way to help, but no matter how much I think about it, there is no way.

“It feels so auspicious! It was really nice to come to this Aken Island! It seems to be the most exhilarating feeling in my life! I want to go back to the village and let you know about this incident…! Isn’t that right, Saila!”

“Yeah… hehehehe, our Yenika is already… so grown up…”

With those words, Yenika put on a look as if a knife had been stabbed in her stomach.

it’s all over Now, when you return to Pulan, the hometown of your heart, you will be greeted by a group of village wives dancing to celebrate Yenika as if waiting.

“By the way, Master Ed. Are you good at shooting bows? This Orte, one of the bow skills is proud. If it’s not rude, I’d like to compete with the master one day.”

“I just practiced for a while. It would be great if I could be taught a few lessons.”

“shit…! I’m about to cry…! Is this what tears of joy are…! It must have been such a heartbreaking thing for a dream to come true…!”

From the perspective of Orte, who had a romantic relationship with her son-in-law, who went to archery, and had a glass of accompaniment, tears were flowing.

It’s hard to follow the flow of consciousness from Ed’s point of view.

They are happy people and just understand.

“I thought that my daughter might be offended because she is living a very different life from what she thought.”

“That…! Master Ed! Do you see us as humans who would be offended by this? Rather, I am proud of my daughter who is actively pioneering her own life! You’ve grown so much, you’ve grown up Yenika!”

“Okay, Master Ed! He’s really open-minded about this, so don’t worry too much! Rather, I’m just worried that our insufficient daughter might cause some trouble! At first, I was a little surprised, but I was told that a trustworthy person like Ed would share my life with me, but rather…”

– quiver

At that moment, the door to Lortel’s villa inside opened.

It’s late. The sun was already setting.

Still, Lortel’s return is usually much later. If the delivery schedule is delayed or pulled, many go out to work at dawn and do not return.

That’s why I couldn’t bear to think that Lortel would be home at a time when the sun was only beginning to set.

This chapt𝓮r is updat𝒆d by ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom.

“Oh my gosh, Ed. Today’s festival schedule is…”

With that said, Lortel, who came out in a graceful manner, pushed the door, and faced Yenica’s fussy parents, Yenika sitting in a daze, Lucy lying on her stomach on a nearby tree stump, Bell was looking at Lortel with her eyes wide open.

Lortel’s early departure from work was a complete whim. Coincidentally, no one was present who could have predicted the whim.

“Oh…”

It was difficult for Lortel himself to understand the sudden situation immediately, so he had to stand in front of the crowd for a moment, holding the doorknob.

*“Oh, hello. This is Lortel Keheln, the current vice president of the Elte Chamber, the branch manager of the Sylvania branch, and a sophomore at the Sylvania Academy. If it was Pulan, would you deliver livestock products to the gateway city of Kletz? There are some people I know at the Elte Chamber of Commerce on the Kletz side, and the rumors spread that it is a place with good air and good water. Are Bacon Cheese Rolls still sold in the market these days? I still remember how delicious it was because it suited my taste perfectly.”

Lortel is amazingly good for just one affinity.

This is because it is natural for a merchant to be able to communicate skillfully with people who are new to him.

As soon as Lortel Keheln appeared, the Palerover couple, who had just burst into the sky, burst into laughter and roar with joy, began to sweat profusely as they sat down by the bonfire.

I didn’t say that there were two women living together.

And, no doubt, the woman who popped out from the inside is actually a key figure in the Elte Company, who is in charge of 30% of the livestock distribution in Torren Village.

“Ha-ha-ha… I see. Lortel… Keheln Nari…”

“It’s a Torren village… I’ve heard a lot of stories that Jenika-senpai is from Pulan, but I never imagined that it was the Torren village. The quality of livestock products from Torren is really good. It’s such a good product~ Even in our Elte company, we’re buying quite a lot~.”

Horses have bones

Yenica shuddered as she watched the Pallovers who suddenly became the world’s most modest ladies and gentlemen.

“Dad mom..! Don’t be discouraged…! Just because some of our livestock products don’t sell doesn’t mean you have to look out for others…! My daughter has been given the title of baron…!”

“Yeah, that’s right… Most of the villagers also have sales outlets in the Elte store…”

“We can eat well, but the villagers are completely different…”

Yenika seemed to be losing her mind.

Lortel is close friends with Yenikawa. I don’t want to bow my head for a few bucks…!

But… in a situation where the livelihoods of the villagers depend on it, it is unlikely that the Failovers will raise their heads easily…!

“Oh my gosh, there’s no need for both of you to be so uncomfortable~.”

Lortel sat close to Ed’s side and carefully placed the mug of herbal tea on his lap while holding the mug of herbal tea with both hands.

He looked elegant and modest, but behind him there was a feeling that even a ghost was attached to him.

Ah… Is this the power of reality?

Do adults fall down helplessly in front of money and interests?

As if realizing that fact, Yenika had an expression on her face as if she had lost her homeland to return to.

“As you can see, it’s because I’m living in the same camp with Ed sunbaenim. Is there any reason why I should do any harm to the two people that Ed-sunbaenim is particularly fond of?”

The way he naturally clings to Ed doesn’t look like they’ve been together for a year or two.

The Palerover couple, who were looking at the two of them with their eyes wide open to the point that they thought their eyes would burst, began to sweat.

When I first noticed that the master of the Duke of Roth Taylor had such a strange atmosphere with Yenica, I felt a sense of joy that the whole world seemed like paradise… did.

At first, Ed’s impression of trustworthy and solid appearance did not allow for such a possibility, but he was also a noble noble.

“He… how many people…?”

Orteo asked with difficulty.

Before Ed could answer anything, Lortel hit the player first.

“About seven people…? No, are there about 11 people lately?”

He clings to Ed’s side and replied with a satisfied smile.

Few people here fully understand the meaning of Ortega’s question. At least Lortel, the quickest and most savvy, answered all the situations in an instant.

Lortel, who was good at improvisation, quickly decided what kind of answer would be most advantageous to him in the current situation. Indeed, she deserves to be called a fox.

Before Ed could say anything, Lortel adds.

“Not that many, maybe…? We have mutually agreed…”

Saila Palerover made a shocked face, and then her lips began to turn bluish.

Then, how many Yenikas are there, and how many Lortel, who is the real power of the Elte Chamber?

At Lortel’s sudden improvisation, the Failovers went into a state of panic. Is this the life of aristocrats?

It was the moment when Bell, who had been listening quietly, was about to intervene, thinking that this abnormality was dangerous.

“I am so tired.”

Lucy, who had been lying still on the stump of a tree, suddenly got up, yawned and stretched.

It’s a cute movement like a little squirrel just waking up.

Come to think of it, what is the meaning of this wizard who has been accompanying me as if it was natural for a long time ago?

“I’m going to sleep.”

At the point when Orte and Seyla finally began to question those questions, Lucy left those words and often walked away from the campfire.

The gait that seems to be bouncing with magical power is exciting.

And, the place where Lucy opened the door to sleep and entered… Ed’s cabin.

– Bang!

Naturally, Lucy went to sleep in Ed’s cabin and closed the door.

“…”

“…”

“…”

Bell wiped his face down as if in difficulty. No matter how first-class maids are, it is impossible to solve such a chaos.

Among the people sitting awkwardly in the center of the chaos, only the sound of a bonfire burning was dispelling the stillness.
