Became a Lazy Confucius at the Academy

81 – The Empire’s Circumstances (1)

A man in his mid-thirties was sitting in his office. He silently handed over the papers. His complexion looked a bit worn out. It wasn’t because of recent fatigue, it was originally like this.

He is the official leader of the Teutonic Knights, Liszt.

Liszt looked at the battered knights kneeling in front of him with a cold face.

Everyone had swollen faces from being beaten by Liszt.

“It went too far.”

“… ….”

“I will ask you one last time. Why did you touch Windsor?”

Charon bit his molar.

“It’s your fault for arguing, but it’s your fault for attacking first. No knight, no matter how much he is being escorted, remains still after being attacked.”

“You show your pride to the end. I didn’t ask that.”

Karon looked at her floor and said as if to mash it.

“… You are angry.”

“Why?”

“Because His Majesty’s first order was just that.”

“Something like that?”

“… I didn’t come to the Teutons to babysit a child. I have come to do something more, greater.”

“Great deal. Pooh.”

Judith covered her mouth and laughed. Karon glared at him savagely. Judith quickly returned to her expressionless face.

“The little child is you, Charon.”

“… !”

Karon looked up at the list in amazement.

“What do you think is the reason I haven’t retired yet?”

Liszt is 36 years old.

It’s already too early to mention retirement, but it was too old to remain in the Teutons, the strongest knights. Because it’s past its prime.

“Only because of you.”

The present Teutons were just about to cross generations.

The skills of the next Teutons are outstanding. Among them, these five were special. It was to the extent that it could be described as extraordinary.

In particular, a young prosecutor named Shearer had a quality that he had never seen before on a list called ‘the master of the sword’. She was still confident that she would win by a narrow margin, but that even after a year, she would blossom into a bigger talent.

But Liszt could not retire. It was because of Karon.

Currently, Charon is the only general manager in the Teutons. No matter how much she doesn’t look at her status, if the status of a person with a low level of leader is low, the entire knights can be seen as easy.

Above all, Charon had no hesitation in making a decision, and his ideas matched those of the Teutons.

The problem was the field of view.

“Your field of view is too narrow. Charon. Even when fighting I don’t think about the next, I only look at the situation right in front of me. That’s why you can’t beat Judith, who has weaker conditions than you.”

Karon’s expression hardened.

“I admit it. I can’t beat Judith. But that’s a compatibility issue. My strength lies in looking for gaps, but Judith’s strength lies in her prudence.”

“No, the difference between you and Judith is your fighting sense. Judith doesn’t try to force anything. But you try even though you know it won’t work.”

Charon raised his head.

“I don’t think that’s bad. Because if you get hit once, you won’t get hit twice.”

“Right. That’s why you’re the vice-captain. Caron, you often have accidents that you don’t understand, but you learn a lot from your failures. But there are downsides that you have to experience. That’s why the field of view is narrow. I made a mistake I shouldn’t have made this time.”

“…… That Young master is so important. It was that side that attacked first, and it was this side that was disgracefully defeated. I couldn’t even cut a single hair from that little boy.”

I felt a sense of contempt from Charon’s words. Liszt explained calmly.

“Your escort, Louise Christopher, is a magical genius. He announced a new theory of magic, not only put an end to the quarrel between commoners and nobles, which was a chronic problem in the academy, but also established a strong barrier to prepare for foreign invasion. All of this has been accomplished in less than a year since I entered school.”

The list covered the papers. It was written there.

＜ Succession Document of the Teutonic Knights ＞

It was a document stating that Liszt would step down from the position of general manager and that Charon would be replaced.

Liszt sat in a comfortable position with a pod in both hands. He said with a heavy expression on his face.

“His Majesty wanted the academy, the future of the empire, to develop. That’s why I assigned Assistant Michael. When Prince Louis changes the flow of the main stem, Assistant Michael touches on the details. Will make many achievements. And next to them are you, His Majesty’s direct personal guard. It is to disprove the close relationship between Prince Louis and His Majesty. What will be the consequences of this?”

Liszt paused for a moment, then continued.

“It is the strengthening of the imperial authority.”

“… !”

“Emperors of the past were only friendly with Windsor, but never actually used their power. Because Windsor wouldn’t allow it. However, it was an opportunity to prove that Louis Christopher had a closer relationship with Windsor than any other royal family in history. While using Windsor, how many opportunities are there to make Windsor feel good?”

“… ….”

“The reason I entrusted you with such an important task was that His Majesty trusted you so much. It’s only natural to give out the cards you think are most important, at the most important moments.”

A chilly silence ensued. Charon couldn’t lift her head. The rest of the knights did the same.

“Be ashamed. You have not only disobeyed His Majesty’s orders, but also committed an indelible sin.”

Charon bit her lip. List said.

“Remember what will happen from now on. And you just have to feel that you won’t repeat it twice. That’s it. Responsibility is on me.”

Irene stepped on the front door of the Imperial Palace with her smile on her face.

The place where the Imperial Knights gather.

Among them, it was the building of the Teutonic Knights, located on the outskirts.

All the Teutons live and train here. It was to develop skills and bond together, but……

Irene knew. Unlike other knightly orders, the Teutons only look at skill.

You don’t have to be noble, you don’t have to be dignified. It doesn’t matter if you’re a criminal. All you see is skill. As a result, I have a lot of strange friends.

In other words, the sound of bonding was bullsh*t. The Teutons being on the outermost edge of the imperial family was partly for the purpose of containment. Don’t crash

“Huh? He’s the first one I’ve seen.”

“Hello. Cute puppy.”

Irene wore a black coat over her dress. She was so neatly dressed that she could hardly be considered a knight. Above all, her skin was too white. As if she had never seen sunlight.

With her subtle elegance, you could only tell that she was a high-ranking person.

“Yumma. Just by looking at it, you are a high-ranking person.”

“Are you tall? Can you become a duke?”

The Teutons are a group that do not bow their heads to anyone except the imperial family. So I laughed.

“I’m sorry, but I went the wrong way for the request. Go to His Majesty. We only listen to his orders.”

“Hmm.”

Irene stroked her chin.

He tilted his head.

“I don’t think so.”

“… What?”

“You guys don’t listen to His Majesty, do you?”

Irene said it was cute.

The knight who had just finished training frowned at her.

“Is that an insult?”

Irene brought her right hand to her eye and made her scissors shape. Her hand on one side of her was behind her back.

Soon after, her insides burned blue.

“That child, she can’t control her magical powers well. That’s why, when she uses a slightly larger magic, her eyes become like this. Is not it cute?”

The Teutonic knight frowned at Irene’s words, which she did not understand.

“This woman is out of her mind?”

Irene bent her back slightly and showed her eyes closely.

And the Teutonic Knights realized. Her mouth is laughing, but her eyes are infinitely cold.

Her appearance was grotesque. It was terrifying at the same time. She felt that if she looked into her eyes for long enough, she would lose her soul.

Irene said in a quiet voice.

“Have you seen it?”

“…… What?”

“Looks like none.”

Irene straightened her back with a strange smile.

“… !”

At that moment, the Teutonic Knight broke into a cold sweat and tried to draw her sword. But-

Whoa!

Blood gushed from her shoulder blades. The two Teutonic knights fell on the spot.

“That’s an enemy raid!”

He cried out hysterically as he collapsed on the cold floor. Irene stayed still, as if she didn’t particularly care.

Quaang!

The wall of the building next to it crumbled and Galahad appeared with a spear. Without her hesitation, Gallahad struck Irene from top to bottom with such force that it split her in half.

Zeng!

Galahad’s spear is broken.

“No way… no.”

‘I have definitely reached it.’

The spear touched Irene’s back neck. But it was her own spear that broke her.

“Are other friends late?”

“What… ?”

Whoa!

Galahad looked down slowly. Her own breasts were marked with her X.

‘At some point… ?’

Gallahad fell to his knees. There was no strength in her whole body.

“Galahead!”

Other comrades could be seen through the broken walls. Gallahad turned his head with his struggles and spoke with his mouth.

‘Oh… ji… mind.’

Irene saw them too. In particular, Charon with her right shoulder frozen and Shearer with her grip frozen stood out.

“It’s been a while. Charon.”

Karon looked at Irene and managed to contain her legs as she almost let go of her strength. Both of her eyes trembled.

“…… Irene Windsor.”

“Wee, Windsor?”

Shearer stepped forward with a hard expression.

“Stop it.”

The corners of her eyes trembled as if she was nervous.

“If it’s weird, I’ll cut it.”

Shearer instinctively put his hand on the hilt of his sword. It was the moment she was about to pull out.

Irene and her eyes met. Irene was looking at herself with her smile.

“… !”

Shearer felt.

‘If I pull this out, I will die.’

As soon as she pulled it out, she had a clear vision of her own head rolling on the floor. Shearer couldn’t lift one of her fingers.

Irene moved her steps. She walked slowly, neither fast nor slow, to where Shearer was.

It felt long. But until Irene got to Shearer’s side, there was no one she could move.

Irene whispered in Shearer’s ear.

“Did you see it? My sword.”

Irene’s smile grew thicker.

Shearer felt the fear of death for the first time.

Amelia swung her sword in her trance.

That was the moment.

Crack!

Ruid’s practice sword fell helplessly to the floor.

Amelia looked to her right, wiping away sweat.

“Louis.”

… Louis was sleeping. Her sword fell as she lost consciousness.

“Louis, Louie, Louie.”

Amelia shook Louis.

“Ugh… “

Louise opened her eyes with her gaze at her dozed-off face.

“One more time.”

“It’s already 20 hours.”

Ruid vigorously offered to help with training.

Amelia unexpectedly accepted it willingly, and that’s when the situation started.

Amelia couldn’t rest!

The problem is that Ruid’s average sleeping time is 20 hours a day.

Of course, 4 hours was a disgrace to Amelia. Louise had to give up her sleep.

It was a huge price to pay. But she never thought it would be like this.

Ruid was awake for 20 hours for the first time in his life.

“Don’t do that.”

Amelia woke up Ruid.

“Say, save me.”

“I am sleepy because I am lying down.”

Amelia picked up Louis and sat him in her chair. Louis struggled, but it was meaningless.

“Tomorrow… Let’s do it tomorrow.”

Amelia heard that and bowed her head to her downcast face.

“Is that right? It’s bedtime now.”

“Yes.”

“Because even if someone with no talent like my older sister does something like this, her skills won’t change.”

Cold sweat broke out on Ruid’s forehead.

“Meaningless Explosive Day… ….”

“Okay. You can do it.”

“Really?”

Amelia smiled brightly.

She moved her mana with a tired expression. As if she had a new toy, Amelia began sparring with her imaginary foe, her eyes twinkling.

Chaeng!

The sword in the air that replicated Charon’s swordsmanship collided with Amelia without stopping.

It was time to watch her yawn as Louis stretched out. Feeling the presence, she turned her head. Amelia also stopped her practice for a while.

It was Gallahad. He staggered over with a deep stab wound to his chest.

“Win, Windsor.”

Amelia hurriedly covered Ruid’s eyes.

“What is it? Is it a raid?”

“That’s not it.”

He seemed too tired to talk to her.

“Irene Windsor is at the Imperial Palace… ….”

Cool, blood spilled.

He got down on his knees.
