53 – I don’t want to work (2)

“Meet the sun of the empire.”

An oblivious Amelia got down on one knee.

“What are you talking about, Amelia? I am Englencia, Louise’s cousin…… “

“Please tell me.”

But it wasn’t just because he didn’t notice. As a knight, she could not match the emperor’s intentions.

“Your Majesty?”

“Look out of the way. I’ve met John. Omg… It’s real! Your Majesty the Emperor!”

“… ….”

Seriously, I had no intention of hiding it.

She also came as an encouragement.

But she didn’t want to be found out until she talked to Louis.

‘Why are the knights so inflexible?’

Lucius licked his lips.

**

“I couldn’t even congratulate you for the black magician case, but you have one more award to give. Jim’s Magic Knights only pay salaries. You do more than all of them, Ruid. Whatever you want, just say it.”

‘It’s burdensome.’

Ruid hid behind Amelia.

“Come to think of it, I didn’t get any compensation for ruining the briefing session. When will the alternative treasury come?”

“I was going to go in the winter.”

“They didn’t come to me sadly.”

“… Your Majesty is busy.”

“If you come, of course, I can free my schedule for that day. A pretty niece who only helps the empire comes to visit, is that a big job?”

“Louid. Be spoiled in front of Your Majesty.”

Amelia took Louis by the hand and sat down next to her.

“Don’t be too rigid, Amelia.”

Lucius scolded and laughed.

“Aren’t we like that?”

The Emperor was so close to the Windsor family that he sometimes joked with them.

This was generally the case with previous emperors, but Lucius was more prone to it.

“This is an institution. We must protect His Majesty’s dignity.”

The emperor must not be friendly with any nobles. Keep a minimum distance. However, if there was one place where one could not be bothered to notice, it was Windsor Castle.

Even Amelia, who behaves so stiffly, is much more comfortable when she faces the Emperor at Windsor Castle.

“By the way, why did you visit? It is difficult to come here suddenly without a schedule.”

“I came to learn the faces of the children who might later become my knights. I will also encourage you.”

Louise said that the emperor’s words were lies, but she was able to bet on the leftover baguette pieces she ate yesterday.

Lucius made eye contact with Louis, who was full of doubts, and smiled softly.

“What are you doing these days?”

Louis felt a slight pinch on her thigh.

Looking to her side, Amelia was watching with her eyes spinning around her.

Although she was smiling on the outside. She could still tell that she was her real sister.

-Don’t talk, don’t talk, don’t talk, don’t talk.

…… Ruid seemed desperate, so he decided to take a look.

“Sleep.”

“Isn’t there anything in particular to do?”

Louise, who almost answered yes out of habit, quickly shook her head.

‘What is this ominous feeling?’

“No. I’m busy.”

“… Sleeping?”

“I am researching.”

Louise strained her eyes. It was to make her look a little more credible.

The emperor looked at Ruid like he was cute.

“A study by a genius wizard. It must be worth a lot. What kind of research are you doing? It’s pure curiosity, so feel free to say it.”

Ruid spat out whatever he could.

“A study in which you move freely within a dream while being aware that it is a dream.”

“Oh, that’s an interesting topic. Is such magic possible?”

“I can do it without using magic.”

Lucius’s eyes widened.

“Is that possible?”

“Yes, anyone can do it.”

Ruid was an expert on sleep.

Lucid dreaming was his specialty.

“That’s so amazing. What is the name of your study?”

“A lucid dream.”

“hahahaha, the research idea is good, but the naming sense is really bad. How about Luid Dream?”

“… ….”

Ruid remained silent at the emperor’s hopeless naming sense.

“I’m busy anyway.”

“If you’re doing such a huge amount of research, you must be busy. I was going to ask for something, but then I can’t help it.”

“Yes. I am really busy.”

‘As expected, the mine hit.’

She must have been trying to make herself do something. Louis was relieved.

“Can you guess what I was trying to ask of Ruid?”

Then, Amelia asked seriously.

It was the consideration of the royal family that Windsor could live peacefully in the empire without any checks.

Even though the point of Windsor’s sword is always pointed at the monsters of the north, it doesn’t change that in the end, one family has too strong soldiers to have.

This was impossible without the emperor’s permission. And that permission is made based on infinite trust in the Duke of Windsor. Windsor was said to be possible only when he was certain that he was a loyalist family.

Naturally, Windsor was in a position to respect the emperor. He must not give the emperor even the slightest bit of regret.

“Hmm, Ruid seems to hate it, so what can I ask for?”

Lucius smirked.

“It can’t be. Ruid cannot dislike His Majesty’s orders.”

Amelia patted Ruid’s head in the right position.

Ruid glared at Amelia.

‘I told you not to tell me. Let’s see.’

“Then, may I ask you a favor?”

Amelia looked at Louis and smiled.

Ruid felt the pressure and she couldn’t help but answer.

“… Yes.”

“No big deal.”

Lucius said as if passing by.

“I only want you to hold the position of president of the academy for a few years.”

“Yes… Not much.”

Louise paused her words for a moment and she pondered.

Amelia blinked her eyes too.

“???”

The two looked at each other and were very embarrassed.

**

Smart.

Amelia knocked on her door with her downcast face.

“Louid… ?”

Ruid, who was on the other side of the door, said nothing.

Amelia knocked on the door again, restless.

“Sorry… My sister doesn’t notice.”

“… ….”

“I’ll go in… ?”

Amelia turned the doorknob.

Clap.

But the door was locked.

‘I must have been really pissed off.’

Amelia broke out in a cold sweat.

After the Emperor passed away.

I still can’t forget Ruid’s resentful gaze.

“If you don’t like it, His Majesty said it’s okay. If you refuse.”

– Liar.

I heard a small voice. Amelia couldn’t miss it.

Actually, she decided to accept the emperor’s request, but it was unreasonable for her to refuse.

Besides, being president of the academy was a huge honor…. It’s a little bit crazy.

In other words, from the emperor’s point of view, this was no different from a reward. However, it was important to Ruid that it was not a reward.

I habitually bit my nails.

‘What can I do? Of course, the thing I hate the most.’

What Ruid hated the most was annoying things.

The academy president was the worst at that part.

“It’s real Ruid. If she doesn’t like it that much, her sister will do something for her. Can you open this door for me?”

Amelia said earnestly.

Clap. Awesome….

The door is open. Amelia let out a sigh of relief and went inside. Louise pulled her blanket over her head.

“… What are you going to do?”

A voice was heard from under the futon.

“It will be enough to prevent the resignation of the president. Because that’s what causes everything.”

Ruid stuck out her head.

From noble mtl dot com

“Can you?”

“My sister will try something.”

To be honest, Ruid was unreliable.

“Your sister is an idiot.”

“… I am not stupid.”

“You are stupid.”

Ruid went back into the blanket.

“Gee, it’s real. I will do my best to prevent the president from resigning.”

Amelia said, flustered.

Louise put his head out of the blanket again.

“Are you confident? If not, I’ll do it. The president won’t even die.”

She was a Louis who didn’t want to move directly.

Amelia clenched her fists and pledged.

“I will definitely stop it.”

“Then forgive me.”

Ruid went back into the blanket. In a word, she was a strong protest against talking to her until the problem was resolved.

**

“I don’t have the qualifications of a president. Don’t you think so too Amelia Windsor.”

Amelia, who went to the president’s office right away, was slightly taken aback by her stubborn reaction.

“Why are you doing this all of a sudden?”

“It’s like I just said.”

“… Is it because of Ruid?”

Amelia comforted the president in her own way.

“If you’re going to regret it, why don’t you even start?”

“Did you come to salt?”

“… ….”

Amelia bit her mouth shut. It didn’t sound good either.

But her promise to Louis was more important to her than anything else.

“No matter who was the president, Ruid wouldn’t have stayed at the academy all the time. Because there were a lot of annoying students. It’s not necessarily the president’s fault.”

“It’s not just that bastard’s problem. Of course, she did a great job, but-“

Clifford said bitterly.

“It’s an idea I’ve had for a long time. To Phenicia, I was going to hand over the presidency as soon as possible.”

“Wait a minute… !”

When Amelia heard the story, she was indignant.

“But why did Ruid get the job offer?”

“What?”

Clifford was dumbfounded by the first story he heard.

“What are you talking about? The president will pass it on to Phenicia.”

“No. His Majesty has offered Ruid the chancellorship.”

“… !”

Clifford’s pupils widened.

However, it soon subsided.

He said, “Sik,” And smiled.

“This is the best result for the academy. It won’t last long anyway, so Phenicia can gain more hands-on experience as Vice-Chancellor. It’s a very good thing. Your Majesty has indeed made a divine move.”

“No, not that.”

Clifford said seriously. The twitching of the corners of his mouth must have been holding back a laugh.

“Could there be a better time than this? Just now, Amelia, your words have strengthened my resolve.”

‘This old man… !’

Amelia had a fever.

“You will regret it.”

“Regret?”

Clifford shrugged his shoulders.

“Who do you think will regret it? This.”

“Yes?”

“That bastard also made me regret hitting the academy. Then isn’t it time for you to regret? Ha ha ha!”

“… ….”

“Go back. Even if I was beaten to death, I would have to resign as president.”

Amelia felt like crying.

**

“… ….”

Ruid quietly remembered what had happened earlier.

He came in after drinking a lot.

-Heeup, I’m sorry, Ruid. Please forgive.

He said drunkenly. It seems to have failed.

From the beginning, Amelia didn’t even believe it.

Amelia, from Louis’ point of view, was nothing other than trying hard.

Ruid decided to use a special move.

I immediately sat down at my desk, opened the paper, and wrote a letter.

– I don’t like to work.

I folded the finished letter four times and opened the window.

– Shiiik.

I whistled.

Not long after, a large eagle appeared cutting through the wind.

He stroked the eagle’s head.

“It’s been a while, Jeppard.”

Jeffard is a familiar with correspondence. To be precise, he was Irene’s familiar.

Ruid put her letter in her beak and said to the eagle.

“Tell it to your mother. ASAP.”

The dignified eagle looked at Louis and nodded her head slowly. Then, powering her claws, she flew away.
