Became a Lazy Confucius at the Academy

62 – Ruid’s Cooking Class (4)

There’s no such thing as happiness.

I thought that if I eat well and live well, that would be happiness. Louis was only interested in that.

Of course, I had no desire to deal with the villains or solve the various problems of the empire.

But her own actions always came with unexpected results.

“So, do you want anything? If you want territory, I will give you territory, and if you want treasure, I will give you treasure.”

The emperor said that this work was of great help to the empire and that he would give it a huge reward.

Ruid was just absurd.

Big help to the empire??

The only thing he did was order the kids to shuttle the ingredients because he just wanted to eat tteokbokki.

Ruid felt very burdened by the emperor who gave excessive praise.

“I’m fine. Please eat a lot of delicious food.”

“hahahaha, are you even concerned about my health? Talking about congratulations, but rather trying for Jim. Louie, you are also a very unstoppable nephew. This is why Jim has no choice but to favor you.”

Sitting on the throne, Lucius gestured to his aide.

Assistant Michael hurriedly approached him and put his ear to it.

Hearing the Emperor’s whisper, Michael’s eyes widened.

“Are you sure you want me to bring it?”

“Don’t make me say it twice.”

“I’m sorry. I will prepare right now-“

“??”

Ruid felt puzzled.

The emperor grinned at Ruid like that.

“It’s not easy to know what kind of congratulations to give to Windsor, no matter how much of a burden it is. What Windsor doesn’t have, isn’t it just this throne? That’s why he can’t give you the throne.”

The emperor shrugged his shoulders, making a very scary joke.

“So, as expected, when it comes to commendation for Windsor, I thought it was only right that I should give the ‘best’ among Jim’s possessions.”

‘I want to give you something.’

Ruid was also secretly looking forward to the gift from the emperor. It’s too much to receive a gift with only tteokbokki.

‘I wish I could give you a blanket… ‘

Louis opened her mouth slightly with her face full of anticipation.

After a while, Michael returned with five or six knights.

It was a coffin covered with a red cloth. Ruid’s expression brightened.

‘It must be a bed.’

That’s a movable bed!

Ruid was already satisfied.

The knight who put down the coffin when he lightly opened the lid of the coffin slowly, very slowly.

The lid opened gently.

Inside it was a red cloth that looked like it would be super soft.

After all, the bed was right!

Ruid immediately felt the desire to go over there and lie down.

But…

“It is Delrin’s wand. As the thirteenth emperor, I bestow this upon Louis Christopher Windsor.”

The words fell like thunder from the blue sky.

The emperor reached into the red coffin and pulled out something, which was a staff.

A staff that gives you a sense of great power.

“Delrin’s wand… ?”

“hahahaha, kid. Even you can’t help but be surprised by this? It is the staff that the archmage Delrin used himself. It is the only wand in the world.”

The Emperor spoke proudly.

‘I can’t eat it, and I can’t cover it.’

Ruid was sullen.

The emperor was taken aback by the reaction that was less than he expected.

“Rice, is it not good?”

But Ruid was also aware of that, so he reacted as much as possible.

“Wow – I’m so glad.”

**

On the way back.

Damon was sweeping the leaves with the broom.

That was a really, really awkward combination.

“What are you doing?”

Ruid walked over and talked to Damon.

Damon said confidently after seeing Ruid.

“I am being disciplined.”

“… Punishment?”

“Yes. The best punishment for the imperial family is humiliation. His Majesty told me to reflect on myself by making me do something a servant would do.”

Damon raised an eyebrow.

“But you can’t subdue me like this. Don’t worry, my spirit won’t break in the slightest.”

‘You should break down a bit.’

“… Go for it.”

Ruid still cheers me on.

As I was about to pass by, Damon spoke up.

“Tteokbokki was delicious.”

“Thank you.”

‘Still, kids are nice.’

Damon has a personality that can be easily misunderstood, but I thought he had a good personality.

Louise stared at Damon for a moment as she wielded the broom with her shy face, then turned her back.

The reaction to the cooking class is better than expected, so it seems a bit rewarding…

Doesn’t it make you faint if you make kimchi fried rice?

Ruid seriously thought about it.

**

Ruid’s mansion.

He was chatting with Hercy.

“When is your sister coming?”

“Yes, I will. Is something going on?”

3 Days after making tteokbokki.

Amelia never returned to her mansion.

It was the same with Sherry.

She seems to have followed her to score – she is meticulous as usual, but she hasn’t sent a single letter.

‘Is that idiot lost?’

No matter how indifferent Ruid was, there was no choice but to be worried.

From noble mtl dot com

“… Shall we go find it?”

Hersy asked quietly.

‘Only the two of us in a secluded mountain range… It’s like, it’s a date.’

“Keum, because the two of you are very friendly. If you’re worried, I think it’s the right thing to do.”

Hersie, who wanted to go on a date with Ruid, strongly insisted.

“That’s a bit.”

Ruid turned her head away from her glare.

‘I turned away!!’

“It’s not the style that Ame-noona gets beaten up everywhere.”

I was worried, but I was worried about not being able to find my way and starving a little.

“Besides, it’s a mountain range. If the opponent is a monster, my sister will never lose.”

It was because I had a strong conviction.

Amelia is weaker than Irene, but she is more talented at hunting than Irene.

When Irene caught one, Amelia would bring a cart full of monsters.

“… Perhaps she went to the mountains for material reasons and was excited to hunt monsters for the first time in a while.”

“I see… “

Hersy was openly disappointed.

I missed an event that could have made things better.

“By the way, how are the nobles these days? Complaints?”

Squeezing, Louis asked, drinking her tea through a straw.

It was one of two things that aristocrats made noise when eating.

It’s like being an idiot who doesn’t care about others, or being on good terms with the other person.

Since Ruid was never the former, it was probably the latter. Hersey’s expression brightened again.

“Louid’s cooking class is very popular. Everyone just talks about it.”

“Not my class, just… Like the overall atmosphere. Is there anyone who opposes the reward/penalty point system?”

“Because nobles don’t like to waste time on useless things. Rather than spending time protesting, let’s get a little shop, I’m on the side. Of course, there seem to be some nobles who don’t like teaching commoners manners.”

Teaches commoners etiquette.

I heard that some nobles do not like it because they think that they allow commoners to enjoy their own privileges.

But there were only a few of them, and most of them liked it because it didn’t bother them.

“I’m glad. What about commoners?”

“…… It does seem like a disrespectful move. According to the results of the recent investigation through Miho.”

Miho purred as if asking for praise. Louis stroked his head.

“That disrespectful move, is the countess the target?”

Hercy widened his eyes.

“How did you know?”

“Hmm, then just leave it alone.”

‘It works just as well as the original. Somehow.’

Ruid thought as he felt the ‘Delrin’s wand’ hidden inside his robe.

Originally, this is an item that Justin gets as a reward through a certain episode.

Delrin’s wand is impossible to use unless you are a true wizard.

Justin, who has poor skills, gets stronger every time he uses the staff’s performance by 1%.

Of course, since it was already in his hands, Ruid had no intention of returning it.

‘I don’t want to talk about this’.

The name Delrin gives a great resonance to a wizard.

He is like Muhammad Ali in terms of boxing and Einstein in terms of science. It’s sensational, and I’ve created several theories based on magic.

The theory is that there is still no magician who has surpassed Delrin.

Of course, Ruid didn’t think so. He himself has already surpassed Delrin.

“As expected, it’s in the palm of Ruid’s hand.”

Louis held out her hand.

Seeing the cute hand, Hersy blinked.

“My hands are small.”

“… ….”

‘It’s a joke, isn’t it funny?’

Ruid lowered his hand with a nonchalant face.

His face turned red with a little embarrassment.

“Right. Louis, when is the next class? Ruid’s class doesn’t have a regular time.”

Ruid was also selfish in class. He either wants to, or he doesn’t. It could have been the first and last class to teach tteokbokki.

But the emperor even gave Delrin’s wand… I’m looking forward to it very much.

‘It’s annoying, really.’

… It was because the emperor was like family to Ruid. He couldn’t possibly disappoint.

“… I’m going to do it as soon as my sister comes.”

“Do it right away?”

Hersy was quite surprised.

“Recently, Ruid has been working very hard.”

“Does it look like that?”

Ruid was a little happy that he seemed to be aware of his hardships.

“Yes, I only sleep 15 hours these days, and I’m only an hour late for my appointment.”

‘…… What? I feel like a very spoiled human being.’

Louise blinked her eyes.

Still, it’s good if the number of unemployed is like this.

She probably thought it was a compliment, so she replied with a proud heart.

“Thank you.”

**

Two days passed just like that.

Louis immediately told her mother.

“It’s clear that I don’t even care because I’m playing alone.”

[…] Please contact me right away when you return. Rather, Louis. Do you eat well?]

“Yes.”

After a few words of everyday conversation, Ruid connected with Irene this time.

“Ame noona is not coming. Give me a hard time.”

[That child is useless. Don’t worry, I’ll kill you half, Louie.]

“Half and half.”

Just like that, another week has passed.

That was also the time Louise spent in Amelia’s room.

Ruid turned on the crystal ball today as well.

“Amelia is not coming.”

Ruid doesn’t even call me older sister anymore.

Inside the crystal ball, Victoria was in a lot of trouble.

[Luid, this is already the third transmission today.]

Only 40 crystal balls written today.

In terms of gold, 4 million gold.

Considering that the amount of money in the mansion where Ruid was located was 200,000 gold, it was a staggering amount.

Even this was the amount of crystal balls Ruid had spent. The crystal ball at Windsor Castle is not included.

8 Million gold if included. It was an astronomical amount.

“What if Amelia isn’t coming?”

[Amelia said you don’t have to worry. There is no person who could be a threat near the space the child went to.]

“Worry about what? Don’t worry at all It’s just, it’s annoying.”

[Hmmm, … Windsor Castle’s crystal ball is gradually running out. I’d rather have a crystal ball on and talk to her mom all day… ]

“Is the crystal ball a waste?”

Knock-.

Ruid turned off the crystal ball.

I hugged her pillow and glared at the crystal ball with a disgruntled face.

She sent a message to Irene this time.

Irene was smiling as usual.

Ruid didn’t like her smile because it was like an idiot, but today he was very reassuring.

“Amelia is not coming.”

[The death penalty.]

“Isn’t it?”

[Leaving her 12-year-old sister at home and running away. Out of stock.]

Louise gave her a big nod.

“As expected, there is only Irene noona. Irene noona is my favorite.”

Irene’s smile grew thicker.

Cudangtang!

– Go, family head!

A commotion was heard inside the crystal ball.

Soon the door opened and Victoria appeared in front of the crystal ball, wiping off a cold sweat.

[Ah, son. I think I misunderstood something…

“I never did anything like a misunderstanding.”

Ruid disconnected her.

She curled up on her bed.

“… Shall we go?”

There is a problem with not coming like this.

So I couldn’t go.

Seeing that Sherry doesn’t come the same way, it’s kind of a test.

During the last warlock case, Amelia said she sincerely hated getting involved.

If she intervened this time, she could be hurting Amelia’s pride.

… She didn’t want her family to fall apart.

But at the same time, it was very, very annoying not to see a single letter while away for such a long time.

“Just come.”

**

Amelia entered her mansion with a smile on her face.

‘Whoops. It’s a bit late, but if it’s something like this, Ruid will like it.’

Amelia went to the Melang Mountains to find smelt.

On the way, she meets a fisherman…

-You know what? It is said that the Ice God lives at the top of the Melang Mountains.

The god of ice fish, ice god.

After hearing the story of the legendary being, I couldn’t catch an ordinary smelt.

That’s why Amelia roamed the mountains tirelessly to catch the legendary fish…

“Oh, Sherry. A lot of trouble. You can go and rest.”

“… Yes.”

As soon as Sherry heard that, she fell to the floor.

Amelia shook her head.

“It’s because Louis de’s lady-in-waiting is so weak.”

She hasn’t slept for over a week, but Amelia doesn’t think it’s a miracle that she’s survived so far.

She opened the door thinking that she had to dress up and go see Louis.

“Huh?”

By the way, Louis was sitting on the bed in her own room.

Ruid was happy to see Amelia for a while, and put on a very ferocious expression.

“Why are you here… “

“… ….”

Ruid’s magic power suddenly fluctuated.

Everything in the room fell and the floor groaned.

“Get out!!”

With a bang, the door closed.

“… Louie?”

Amelia froze with her fish on her shoulder.

The fish fluttered mercilessly.
