76 – Amelia Windsor(1)

“What? No.”

After hearing the story, Ruid hated it and said.

‘Only mouths to eat increase… !’

Michael was taken aback by the resolute banquet order.

“Yes… ? That, Young master. This is an imperial mandate, and I cannot refuse it.”

From noble mtl dot com

“Go back. Your Majesty, I will speak for you.”

“Young master. It’s not an order you can reject just because you don’t like it. Even if you don’t like it, you have to accept it.”

“What are you saying? Even if I get scolded, I get scolded.”

Ruid said coldly. Putting her hands in her pockets and ignoring them, she walked away.

I know very well how strong the Teutonic Knights are. It’s just a legend here. But it was not necessary. Ruid has power, honor, and money, but manahan…….

‘Money?’

Ruid stopped walking.

I sneakily turned around.

“Do you have any money?”

“Money… What?”

“Tell me one by one. From you.”

He pointed to Michael.

“Yes… His Majesty’s aides don’t have a day off, so I’ve been saving up some of my salaries.”

“Passed. Next.”

Ruid looked at Charon this time.

“… Me too. I had no use for it, so I was saving it.”

“Passed. Next.”

Gallahad frowned.

“My relative is getting rich by accident.”

“Passed. Next.”

This time it was Shearer. He was a silent man.

‘He was probably the best munchkin.’

Even in the Teutons, which are famous for being strong, he was a strong player who ran in 1st or 2nd place. A young prodigy. He also has good looks.

But what mattered to Ruid was money, not that.

Shearer just shook his head. Caron defended.

“Shearer has no money.”

“Unacceptable. Next.”

This time it was a black haired woman with long bangs.

I had seen it somewhere, but I remembered it.

‘Academy student?’

I remember him as a student in the swordsmanship club. The last time Amelia was training her, she had been passing by.

Its presence was so faint that it was hard to find even with Ruid’s memory, who always remembers what he saw once.

“Claire is a rookie. He is also a commoner, and he probably has no money.”

“… ….”

Claire lowered her head. He seems to have a timid personality. Ruid spoke coldly.

“Unacceptable. Next…… Is this person okay?”

Ruid glared at Nolan, who had become a half-zombie.

Michael urgently explained what had happened.

Whisper.

‘…… Ah. That’s why I felt refreshed.’

It seemed that it was Nolan’s magical power that he ate in his dream. He was said to be the most skilled wizard in the Teutons, but somehow it was delicious.

Ruid took Nolan’s hand and injected her magical power.

Like a balloon getting fuller, Nolan came to his senses.

“Whoops!”

Seeing himself, Nolan was very surprised. I’m sorry, but I asked from the point of view.

“Do you have money?”

“…… It was until yesterday.”

“Was there?”

“I blew it all away by gambling. hahahaha.”

Ruid hated her gambling addiction. She passed her sentence right away.

“Unacceptable.”

“Now, hold on! Give it a little time and you can get it! The cards are good today! Gold Dragon Young master!”

Ruid neatly ignored it.

I immediately looked at Judith.

Judith was smiling broadly, showing off her healthy teeth.

“Sir, it’s been a while. Do you remember me?”

Of course I remember.

‘Why the hell did the Teutonic Knights stay at an inn that commoners are looking for?’

When I was about to hit the academy, this was the person I ran into at a place called ‘The Inn Where the Wind Stays’.

He introduced himself as a mercenary, but a knight. I never thought it would be a member of the Teutonic Knights.

Since Ruid also hid his identity at the time, he decided to fight.

More important than that.

“Do you have money?”

“…… Heck, hey Anyway, I never thought I would be Gongja. People are so amazing!”

“Looks like none.”

Judith stretched his shoulders. He gripped Louis’ hand and opened his eyes pitifully.

“I only have three younger brothers… ! As much as I earn, I go to my younger siblings. Just looking at this beautiful family… “

“Unacceptable.”

Yu Dis gave up on appealing to his sensibilities.

But she was smart.

“I can buy you some rice. I remember? Inn then. You enjoyed the food She’s the owner, whom I’ve been close to since my days as a mercenary. If I ask, will you feed me for free?”

‘… Come to think of it, she paid for a month’s worth of food in advance.’

Let’s visit when cooking is too much trouble. Louise nodded her head. She agreed to give Judith credit for her work.

“Then pass.”

“Yahoo!”

Judis liked her more than when she passed her entrance test of the Teutonic Knights.

“By the way, Young master… There is no way this pass or fail.”

“Yes. Inconsistencies go home. Only those who pass will be my escorts.”

Karon’s expression visibly hardened. Ruid noticed and said.

“If you don’t like me, go home. I am not forcing you.”

“… His Majesty’s orders are absolute. It can’t be.”

“Then take care of yourself. Hello to me It would be nice if those who got accepted would do it on a rotation if possible.”

“Rotation… ?”

“It means that three people stand alternately for seven hours.”

Ruid was a good employer who followed the Labor Standards Act.

Of course, I can’t give her a salary.

She looked at Michael and said.

“You can do as you like, His Majesty’s aide. Commuting to and from work is free-“

“Yes, yes.”

‘It’s absurd, but you sorted things out pretty quickly… ‘

Michael thought while breaking out in a cold sweat.

**

Amelia was reporting to Duke Victoria.

“…… The captured black magician committed suicide. It was thoroughly escorted, but it seems that conditional magic was applied. Hearing a scream, the knight went to find it, and found only a pile of black ashes.”

[Did a new force appear? It seems that the peace of the empire has been maintained for a long time.]

Victoria did not give Amelia any help or hints. This was all Amelia had to do.

“Yes. Surely, when I return to Windsor Castle, I will eradicate those who threaten the peace of the Empire.”

[Yes, try.]

Victoria smiled faintly. When Amelia raised her head, the smile was washed away.

[…] … Are you taking good care of Ruid?]

“Big.”

Amelia cleared her throat.

[You have to hold it well. Let them know that bad things are bad, and when they are being punished, they should be punished.]

Amelia broke out in a cold sweat.

Certainly, at the beginning of the academy, that was the mindset.

I tried to make my younger brother move who was too lazy, and he often said something.

But these days……

It was eaten by Ruid.

“Yes. Keep in mind… I’ll do it. Ruid also said he reflected a lot on this incident.”

[Really?]

Victoria’s expression brightened.

Amelia felt guilty.

[Then, when you return, you will be able to see Ruid who has grown wonderfully.]

Victoria put on an expectant expression.

“… !”

Amelia’s pupils widened.

[Why is your expression like that?]

Victoria asked, puzzled.

[Anyway, the ban on pocket money can be canceled here…… ]

“Oh, no.”

Amelia said urgently.

When Louis’ allowance ban is lifted, she benefits herself too.

However, her conscience was pricked too.

Actually, from Amelia’s point of view, it was because, rather than her reflection on Louis, she only felt that he had become more determined.

“… Reflection is still insufficient.”

[Amelia.]

Victoria said in a grim voice.

[You lied. Ruid reflected.]

“That… ….”

Amelia was taken aback, but at last she spoke frankly.

“… It is said that she reflected on the outside. Don’t you know I’m a kid who doesn’t know what he’s thinking…. To be honest, I can’t tell the difference.”

[Hmm.]

Victoria calmly nodded her head.

[Okay. But, Amelia. Be mindful.]

“… ….”

[There is a minimum expectation value that Windsor must meet. It hasn’t even been a year yet, so I believe it, but she can’t be called a Windsor if she can’t do anything right.]

Victoria said sternly.

“… Yes.”

Amelia lowered her head and answered in a low voice.

‘Why am I…… I can’t do it like my sister.’

About 8 years ago.

She remembers Irene, a 17-year-old who returned home with great achievements and was welcomed by the locals.

She says it put an end to a situation on the brink of a war that might break out. Keeping the peace. That was a huge achievement.

Young Amelia looked at Irene with her twinkling eyes and made a resolution.

She said that in the future, she herself would definitely end up like that.

However- the reality was grim.

It’s been a year and a half since she left Windsor Castle, but she’s achieved only small things.

Rather, she couldn’t even take care of the only request her mother asked for, ‘Take care of Louis de’.

Ruid was more spoiled, and she was still a child.

‘What if it was an older sister?’

Amelia could be assertive.

Louise’s main building situation would never have happened if her Irene, not herself, had taken over her education.

Amelia bit her molars tightly.

[Always look forward to it. Amelia.]

Victoria said calmly to Irene and cut off her transmission.

Even though her crystal ball went out, Amelia did not wake up for a while.

**

‘It’s time to eat, where did you go?’

Ruid looked at her empty main building and put on her sullen expression.

No, she tried to cook for her despite the inconvenience, but did she skip?

“Young master Louis. Who are you looking for?”

Michael spoke. Louise looked at her as if it was unexpected.

“What, are you still there?”

“…… I’ve been following you ever since.”

“What a weird kid. I thought it was good to rest. Is your job that good?”

“A person who has taken a break knows how to take a break. For someone like Michael, who has been working all his life, not working is even more uncomfortable. He’s the duke’s son who’s been playing all his life. You might not understand. Is not it? Young master.”

Said Galahad with a chuckle.

Ruid gazed at Galahad.

‘On the subject of losing at rock-paper-scissors.’

-Then, who will be the escort?

– How about deciding with rock, paper, scissors?

-That’s great! I still wanted to visit the academy.

…… It was a while ago.

Louise ignored her and moved on. She was walking down the hallway, and Gilbert just happened to see her, so she decided to ask.

“Gilbert. Do you know where your sister is?”

“If you are the captain, you are at the gymnasium. May I guide you?”

“Yes.”

‘You’re training. It’s strange. Ame noona only trains at home.’

At the academy, I don’t do well because I don’t have anyone to train with. Because Sherry is the all-around maid at home.

Anyway, Ruid headed to the gymnasium. Thinking about what to eat today.

“Is the gymnasium indoors?”

From noble mtl dot com

“Yes. Among the benefits of being the leader of the swordsmanship club, there is the right to use a private gymnasium.”

The gymnasium was on the first floor of the same building. I opened the door and entered a huge room.

It was a room made of old-looking wood, but it was ironic that the main building of the swordsmanship department was made of marble.

‘Oh… Uncle Delrin worked hard.’

Ruid noticed at once that this space itself had a powerful dimension shifting magic.

The reason why wood was used was that it was the material that was most easily absorbed by mana.

Familiar people gathered there. It was the Teutonic Knights.

“A battle between Windsor and Kairos.”

“… Rumor has it that if Prince Damon were older, he would have become emperor.”

“Shearer. Refrain from talking It is disrespectful.”

In the center, Amelia and Damon were facing each other.

“I almost missed this fun spectacle.”

“Huh? Why is Gallahad here? Oh, are we here?”

‘Why is my sister sparring with Damon… ?’

Ruid blinked his eyes and sat down at a moderate distance from the Teutonic Knights, hugging his knees.

I don’t know what it is, but Ruid decided to watch it.

Caang!

The sparring began with Damon’s spear colliding with Amelia’s sword.
