Became a Lazy Confucius at the Academy

110 – Vacation Preparation (2)

North, 1st line of defense.

From the top of the huge castle wall, Irene looked at the vast snowy field.

The flood of monsters happens periodically.

Usually, one big wave every month.

Although there are small invasions besides large waves, only a few monsters can defend themselves with the castle walls.

So, Irene tends to go for a big wave once a month.

Thinking she had a boring week ahead, Irene was already bored.

“Captain.”

At that time, vice-captain Charlotte prostrated herself next to Irene.

Irene only turned her head with her hands behind her back.

“What happened?”

“That’s it.”

Charlotte said with a firm face.

“I am hungry.”

“… ….”

I said it like a joke, but the situation was serious.

“We are starving for the third day.”

“If you are a Knight of Windsor, be patient for about two weeks.”

Charlotte realized that she hadn’t even made it.

She shrugged her shoulders and gave a small answer.

“Yes.”

The way he turned around was so pitiful.

Irene pulled something out of her pocket and threw it.

“Charles.”

Charlotte lightly jumped and snatched the key that was beyond her height.

“Corrosion Storage Key. And, if you’re hungry, talk a long time ago…… “

“Wow!”

Charlotte liked it like a child and stuck out his head as if he would fall down the opposite wall.

“You did it guys!”

-Oooooh!

The knights who were hiding in the square of the fortress came out and went wild.

Irene snapped her finger at Charlotte with one glance of her gaze.

Charlotte was startled and then sneaked up to me.

Irene was still smiling. However, Charlotte, who has seen her Irene for a long time, knows.

That the corners of her mouth were raised a little less than usual.

That was the expression Irene made when she was angry.

“Why didn’t you tell me? I’m hungry.”

“That, that.”

Charlotte looked at Irene as she bumped her index fingers, then summoned up the courage of her and said.

“Because the captain doesn’t eat anything…. We can’t eat You only eat strange grass.”

“Huh?”

Irene tilted her head.

“Ah.”

She pulled out her own pocket and showed it.

“You mean this?”

“… How shocked were you at the last trip to Jedo, do you eat only that kind of grass? Everyone is worried.”

Charlotte was full of worries.

“This is not just grass.”

“Yes?”

“This is the food my sister made.”

“…… Are you Master Louis?”

“Yes. Would you like to eat?”

Irene lifted a very small amount of her grass from her pocket and handed it over.

It was a very wasteful expression.

Charlotte took the grass with a curious expression and ate it.

“… !”

Charlotte’s empty stomach suddenly felt full.

“Magic… ?”

“They took care of me to eat on the way. Can there be a more effective food? After all, Ruid is unique.”

Charlotte’s face changed every moment.

Irene stared at Charlotte with her curious eyes as she munched her grass.

“Ugyaaagh! Then what about our allegiance!”

Irene smiled brightly.

“It was a crap job.”

And if you’re human, eat meat! I’m going to binge eat from now on!”

Irene thought as she watched Charlotte leaping down the castle wall, scattering her tears in the air.

After all, he is a fun kid.

And, she is a sharp child.

‘Did you pay too much attention to your younger siblings? I can’t even notice that the kids right in front of me are starving.’

Charlotte is right.

Since returning from her island, Irene has been in a bit of a daze. She

She was worried.

It’s new, but those kids are perfect for being taken advantage of.

Louise goes awry, and Amelia has a bit of a bad head with her hair from the old days.

Honest personality is an advantage when catching monsters, but it becomes a fatal disadvantage when it gets entangled with politics.

She wanted to stay in the system until she graduated.

She did, but she had a duty to keep the first line of defense to herself.

Irene cannot escape from this place.

Although there is an allowed time.

The more often she goes, the more distressed she becomes.

“I heard it’s vacation soon. Until then, I have to endure somehow.”

At that time, she twitched Irene’s eyebrows.

Serung.

She drew her sword halfway and circled behind her, staring at her sky.

“There’s no way a flying monster can come on the first line of defense.”

However, this is an unmistakable sign of a monster.

That’s a pretty big guy.

“Headshot!”

The 1st Knights of Windsor came up the wall.

They were all newcomers except for Charles.

The Windsor Knights have a tradition of making their debut on the first line of defense.

It was to make them gain experience even a little bit.

“Everyone except Charles, go down. I need to eat.”

“Ha, but.”

Irene coldly looked at the article that raised her objection.

Charlotte broke into a cold sweat and tapped her with her elbow.

“Sorry.”

In an orderly fashion, the knights descended inside the walls.

“Are you a White Wyvern? My head hurts.”

Charlotte drew her sword while speaking in her dialect.

“No.”

Irene said calmly.

“There is a high probability that it is an alien species.”

Foreign species refer to those who deviate from the standard of normal monsters.

Charlotte gulped and swallowed.

“Everything, I can only trust the captain.”

Irene raised the corner of her mouth.

“… Born and raised in the north, where did you learn the dialect of the imperial dialect?”

“Ah, ahahahaha. When did I use the dialect?”

The signs are getting closer and closer.

It was impossible to see with the naked eye because the weather was heavily overcast.

About ten minutes passed with silence. Irene said softly while holding her sword.

“Coming.”

“I will start!”

Charlotte chanted quickly.

A pink glow slowly gathered on her sword.

“Ren— suck.”

Then, Irene blocked Charlotte’s mouth and forcibly stopped her chanting.

She put the slightly drawn sword in and smiled.

“Louis.”

“Do, boy?”

The moment Irene spoke, she saw an object coming this way through the clouds.

That was a white fox.

It’s too big to be simply called a fox, and it has nine tails.

A boy with flowing blond hair was riding on the back of the fox.

It was Ruid.

**

‘Awesome.’

Ruid had returned to his childhood.

My God, a flying fox.

She buried her face in Miho’s soft fur, she said.

“You are more usable than you look?”

[…] I think the master sometimes forgets that I am a great spirit.]

Miho landed gracefully on top of the first line of defense.

Ruid got off Miho’s back.

The reason I came here is because I agreed with Damon’s plan.

‘Even His Majesty wouldn’t be able to do that if Irene was in the island.’

Above all, Louis wanted to be with her family as much as possible.

“Sister.”

“Louis.”

Irene walked over to her and crouched down in front of Louis.

After stroking her hair and caressing her cheek once, she hugged her tightly.

“It is not an illusion.”

A familiar face was seen over Irene’s shoulder.

Charlotte.

1St in the Knights Order, excluding Irene.

His characteristics are that he has pink hair and that he is a comedian with no seriousness.

“Hello boy!”

“Hello Charles.”

And the compatibility with Ruid was very good.

If you look at the memory of ‘Louis the Indolent’, she is remembered as the best person to play with.

“You always look cute. No no. While I couldn’t see you, your pear has become cuter.”

Charlotte stroked Ruid wildly.

Irene smiled and released her from her arms.

“You are finally back. Welcome. The head of the household will be very happy too.”

“It’s not vacation yet.”

Ruid put his hand on Miho’s body.

Miho instantly became smaller and came into Ruid’s arms.

Louise hugged her fox and looked at Irene and Charlotte alternately.

Irene noticed right away and started talking to her.

“What a wonderful fox. You get along well with Louis.”

“I didn’t know there was such a function. Isn’t that great?”

“Yes. Amazing.”

Charlotte looked at Louis happily.

‘I won’t have to starve anymore.’

Neither the head of household nor Irene was without Louis, so she was ten times colder than before.

After all, only the youngest could melt the ice in Windsor Castle.

But-

Ruid hadn’t returned to the North yet.

“I’m telling you in advance to avoid misunderstanding, but I stopped by briefly.”

Irene told me kindly.

“Louis.”

“Yes.”

“You can do whatever you want when you come, but not when you go. This older sister has no intention of sending you away again.”

The back of Ruid’s neck was damp.

This, no matter where you look, was sincere.

When she said she would return, she got a glimpse of the future of being imprisoned.

“Just calm down and listen to me.”

“I’ll listen and see.”

“Nuna, isn’t the first line of defense boring?”

Irene smiled and met her eye level with Louis.

“It’s boring.”

“Prince Damon suggested it first. Let’s hand over the first line of defense to the Empire.”

Irene nodded her head.

“Yes.”

“… I understand?”

“I understand.”

‘Why is the response so unsatisfactory?’

This reaction was a reaction that came out when it didn’t attract much interest.

Ruid decided to use her special move.

“To do that, we need to improve the skills of the academy students so that the empire itself can deal with monsters.”

“Yes.”

“In other words, I need someone to guide the students.”

“… Huh?”

“Irene noona is the right person. Yes, when Nuna comes to Jedo, she can protect the empire and teach students. More than anything.”

Louis held Irene’s hand tightly, making her eyes sparkle.

Then the angle she looked up and the fine wrinkles on her face were manipulated.

She has exhausted all means to look cute.

This is Ruid’s special move.

“… Being able to be with my sister.”

It was aegyo.

“… ….”

Irene lifted herself up with her smile.

She looked at Charlotte and said.

“Prepare to withdraw.”

‘The decision was made too fast this time!’

From noble mtl dot com

Irene had no middle ground.

“No, don’t withdraw until now. I’m here to let you know that we’re planning on doing that.”

“Seeing that you came in person, you must have been quite desperate.”

Louise looked away from her and nodded her head slightly.

‘Because I hate fighting.’

Theoretically, no matter what the emperor does, the Windsor succession plan cannot be changed.

However, a sense of uneasiness kept creeping up.

Wouldn’t someday, Irene and Amelia cross the river of no return? It’s the thoughts.

The only way to prevent this was to bring Irene into the system.

To be honest, from Ruid’s point of view, it didn’t matter whether the empire was weak or strong.

But the justification was important. Windsor is, after all, a loyalist family. No matter how much she asked for it, Irene wouldn’t move for no reason.

In that respect, Damon’s plan was a very good cause.

With this, you can gently pull them in.

“When can my sister go?”

“I want my sister to come to Jedo alone. The goal is to give the academy kids basic education and send them to the defense line.”

Ruid looked at Irene and said.

“… Will you allow me?”

If it was Amelia, ‘I’d ask the head of the household… ‘ The same answer would have come back.

Irene had the power to decide what was high and low about the Duke of Windsor at her own discretion.

“Um… “

Irene placed her index finger on her lips and made a worried face.

Ruid was secretly nervous.

“Oh.”

Charlotte looked over the castle wall in amazement.

Koo Goo Goo -.

I heard a vibration like the ground shaking.

“Captain, it must be starting soon. Grab that first.”

Across the ridge, I saw a number of monsters with white fur coming.

It was a monster wave.

‘No, at this important moment.’

Ruid looked at the approaching monsters with fierce eyes.

She stretched out her hand towards it.

A blue light shimmered in Ruid’s eyes.

“Dae-dae, Dae-dae, Daffy-! Kids, evacuate!”

Charlotte shouted at the knights who had lined up under the wall.

However, the knights were already running into the walls without hesitation.

When you get to the last knight and lock the castle gate.

“Judgment.”

A little away from Ruid’s hand, a very thin light shone.

And when Louise clenched her fist-

— —!

The ground where the monsters were running turned upside down.

A high frequency sound that exceeded the limit of human ears spread across the earth.

At that moment, a huge light fell from the sky and seemed to swallow everything.

Wow!

The light that fell from the center grew out of control and swallowed the monster.

There was nothing left on the land where the light had disappeared.

Both the corpse of the monster and the snow covered in pure white.

As if nothing ever existed in the first place.

“Ugh, how does the young master create such power with different magic every time?”

Charlotte wiped the sweat from her forehead and looked at Irene.

Irene was looking at the bruised snowfield with her eyes twinkling.

“Everything, Captain?”

The appearance that seems to be filled with something is like a child who has returned to childhood.

It was the first time I saw it.

Irene spoke at once while holding Ruid’s hand.

“Let’s go to the Islands, Louis.”
