I Possessed an Academy Without a Protagonist

Episode 55. social gathering(4)

“Ummm…?”

Iris’ eyes widened.

A sight that I thought I would see once in a lifetime was unfolding before my eyes.

Liechtenburg was always greeted first by the other party, or by a servant or a low-ranking aristocrat next to her, even if she didn’t know.

However, the noble and gigantic Liechtenburg lady was holding her skirt and greeting her with courtesy.

Also to the commoner Schlus Heinkel.

It was a scene that had never been seen before in countless futures that had been foreseen.

Then, Lady Liechtenburg blushed rarely, and strode out of the venue.

‘It’s fun.’

I felt a faint wave of magic earlier.

It looked like the two of them were talking about something with the barrier open.

But what was Liechtenburg talking about when she lowered her tail like that?

Iris had her chin on her chin and looked directly at Schlust.

At that moment, Schlusz saw this side and strode towards him.

“Schlus. I don’t know if you’re enjoying the party.”

“I’m enjoying it thanks to you. I want to say thank you for inviting me.”

Iris smiled contentedly and held out the back of her hand.

Then Schluss naturally. Without hesitation, he grabbed my hand.

If Schluss greeted me politely, it would further lower Liechtenburg’s status compared to asking for greetings from Mrs.

The moment I felt satisfied with just that fact…

“How?”

Iris was dragged forward and stood up.

“You want to dance?”

“No, that’s not it…”

“Okay. The music is perfect for dancing.”

“············”.

I’m going to avoid this in this way.

It was an opportunity to instill in the nobles the perception that Schlust was hostile to Liechtenburg and loyal to Plechet.

Still, wouldn’t it be bad to show off your friendship by dancing together?

Iris hid a slightly dissatisfied expression, and took Schlus’s hand and moved forward.

“I don’t know if I can dance.”

“I do not know.”

“Then how-“

“But your body will remember.”

“···········?”

Schlust muttered something inexplicable, and started moving his feet to the start of the music.

It was a pretty natural dance move.

It’s understandable that the body remembers.

Did you learn it when you were young or living in Iceburg?

After the music ended, Iris returned to her seat and felt a sense of superiority.

He was awarded the Order of the Black Eagle directly from the emperor.

The fact that the deputy Count of Liechtenburg was the only one who danced with the one who lowered his tail.

“It was a wonderful dance! Could you please dance with me?”

“Me too!”

sleep for a hundred days

Anyway, Schlust wouldn’t move.

“good.”

“······What?”

Iris’s fantasy was shattered.

Schlust danced once with every woman at the party.

Except for one woman in Liechtenburg.

***

“Whoa….”

His whole body was drenched in sweat.

How many times have you danced?

When I was doing something that was not answered, my stamina just drained away.

I’m not the type to enjoy dancing, but this time I just wanted to do this.

It’s because Iris’ sullen expression makes me feel bad.

I always thought that Ji was being treated as special, but I needed to break that illusion.

By the way, when I entered the venue, everyone’s eyes looked like bugs, but sooner or later they had softened a lot.

There were quite a few nobles who bothered to talk to me.

Of course, none of the dogs were important enough to make friends with, so we just had a clichéd conversation.

‘Is a cool dance…?’

Fortunately, there was no disgrace due to his dancing skills such as head-to-head.

This is because ‘memory of my own body’ was activated and I was able to copy Schlus’s dance moves as it was.

Every time I looked into my memory, I had to clench my teeth.

The person who taught Schlusus to dance was none other than Julia.

“ah.”

Only then did I remember.

When I saw it from the entrance earlier, Julia had sent me a hand signal.

The hand signal that Han Ah-reum and only Han Ah-reum know to see separately in 3 hours.

Maybe because I used Julia’s model as the guy, even that hand signal was moved?

Or was it just a coincidence?

If that’s not the case…

no it can’t be

‘I’m feeling a little remorse now.’

When I recalled Liechtenburg’s face a while ago, I laughed again.

Even after trying to kill someone, I just thought that I should kill the flag a little bit because it came out as a red flag.

It was not unusual for the entire Liechtenburg family to declare that they would go to war with me, since I had put my wife’s rebellious daughter in my mouth.

However, the woman unexpectedly succumbed to it.

In front of others, I acknowledged defeat by politely greeting me as a commoner.

I think grabbing Henderson had the biggest impact.

Thanks to you, I must have overestimated my fighting ability and made this judgment.

The truth is, if only two or three assassins were sent at a time difference, it would have been helpless.

For the time being, it seems that Liechtenburg’s worries about sending an assassin or a crow can be put aside.

There would be no need for such a shameful declaration of surrender if they continued to fight.

I don’t think it would be bad to try this and that later to check how far my self-esteem has fallen.

With that in mind, I went out to the balcony to take a breather.

“············”.

“············”.

there was a sailor

A woman with pointed ears. Are you an elf?

We bowed once and turned our heads to each other.

I haven’t seen you in the president since before. Did you keep running around?

If you were an elf enough to be invited to a party for nobles like this, it would have meant that you had a considerable status, but just looking at her face, she couldn’t remember who she was.

Ataturk? No, he’s a man. So what about Celica? I must be in the desert by now.

Who the hell are you?

I looked at her carefully and wrote ‘lookup’.

[jin]

[Real name: Jane Watson]

[Gender: Female]

[A member of the crow. good at disguise I am considering retiring.]

Unexpectedly, she was the very reason I attended this meeting.

A crow called Jin.

No matter how much I looked, I couldn’t find it, so I wondered if he wasn’t here, but he must have been here in disguise.

I opened my mouth to make sure there was no one around.

“You don’t seem very happy.”

“············”.

Elf… No, Jin looked at me.

what is it

“I can’t speak the imperial language.”

It was obviously a language with a different pronunciation and intonation from the Imperial language.

However, there was no difficulty in understanding thanks to the ability and ‘translation’ to interpret in real time.

indeed. Even when I’m out on the balcony with this kind of beauty, men don’t want me to flirt.

They were all bouncing around pretending they didn’t speak the imperial language.

“Then, if I speak elven, we’ll be able to communicate.”

“······································································!

I thought I was speaking Korean.

‘Translation’ was triggered, and an unfamiliar language naturally flowed out of my mouth.

It was the same elven language that Jin wrote earlier.

Then Jin opened his eyes wide in surprise.

“Where did you learn the elven language?”

“It’s not that important.”

“Then what’s important?”

“It’s important that you pretend you don’t speak the Imperial language.”

“············”.

Jin’s expression distorted when he hinted that he had the upper hand of information.

Now I can speak in the imperial language.

“I have a request, Jin.”

“How did you know my name-“

“I wish you would refrain from asking such cheap questions. Accept it or not. It’s up to you to decide.”

“Let’s hear it first.”

Jin crossed his arms, showing his annoyance overtly.

Even though I was in disguise, my identity was immediately discovered, so it’s not a bad feeling at all.

You’re probably still rolling your head in real time, thinking about what happened.

Looking back on what mistakes I’ve made in the past.

It’s no use.

It’s just that he was caught out because of his ‘inquiry’ ability.

What if I told you my real name here?

······· Are you going to get hit with a knife right away?

“I hope you find a crow.”

“A crow…? There’s no crow more capable than me. You’d better leave it to me.”

As if to hurt his self-esteem a little, Jin put his hand on my chest and said.

It wouldn’t have been an empty word.

If I had to pick the strongest crow at the time of Henderson’s death, it would definitely be Jin.

Although there is a serious disadvantage that hand-to-hand combat is inferior to that of ordinary soldiers, thanks to her magical skills superior to Henderson, there were many clients who wanted her.

Just look at the disguise you’re wearing right now.

There are many outstanding wizards, including Iris, in this castle alone, but no one noticed.

“It’s not that I want to entrust him with the commission. I want to meet the crow.”

“Heh…….. Yes. Who is it?”

“Kingheart. If you allow me to meet him, I will give you 1 million Tyrion.”

King Heart. It is the name of the crow of the Hurt Locker.

Of course, that’s the case in the original.

However, considering that the next priority task after entering Imperial University was infiltrating the crow, the Hurt Locker must have become a crow by now.

And if there is nothing special, he will be using the name Kingheart as in the original.

There was no basis for confirming, but it was highly likely.

Because I didn’t think of anything other than the name in the first place.

“Now, wait, what’s that name-“

“I have a lot of questions. Can I interpret it to mean that I don’t want to accept it?”

“No. I’ll accept it.”

My self-esteem was damaged, so I thought I’d push a little more.

Jin unexpectedly accepted it at once.

What’s wrong with Jin, who is famous for being expensive?

Then I’m fine.

“Then may I ask why you are looking for that crow?”

“What do you think I’ll answer?”

“·······No. It’s okay.”

Why are you looking for a Hurt Locker?

It’s a little funny, but it’s because there’s no other way to meet him.

If you break into the base of the spy agency right away and play a chess game, you might be able to see him.

But if I do, I will reveal the fact that I know about the spy agency.

Then Emilia will notice that I have been discovered and run away.

That is unacceptable.

Then, I had no choice but to meet the Hurt Locker as a Crow, not the Hurt Locker as an agent of the Intelligence Agency, and that was the only way.

So far, I’ve encountered a Hurt Locker and had a chance to kill it, but it’s already been twice since I’ve let him live.

Each time he asked me why.

If I act like a tsundere more than this, there is a risk of making a strange mistake, so I needed a chance to talk to him.

No matter how hateful he is, no matter how late or early he is, he must be recruited as an ally at some point.

“I wish I could finish it as soon as possible.”

“Is that all?”

As I was about to leave the balcony because I wanted to see everything I had to do, Jin called me.

No, why are there so many questions?

Can’t you be a bit professional?

“Why. Do you want to dance even one song?”

“······Nope.”

He cut off the conversation and turned his back.

Jin is clearly capable and strong.

If you ask me if it is possible to attract Jin as an ally though… it will be very difficult.

Because he was like a bat that went back and forth in the original story.

Even if it was difficult to draw him into an ally, he would have to be on the lookout for when he might turn to the enemy, so he decided not to even think about it in the first place.

At least, you should avoid flirting and getting annoyed.

For some reason, it was burdensome for me to see the constant gaze from behind, but I tried to ignore it and returned to the venue.
