16 – Clue

The night Hayu came back from being injured.

Lane vampered him to his heart’s content without knowing anything.

And when he realized that Hayu had completely lost his mind, he had already lost a lot of blood.

Unable to overcome the futility, I hastily coveted his body.

So Lane clearly felt it. This is definitely your own fault.

Fortunately, as a royal class dormitory, I was able to take quick action to avoid life-threatening damage, but

‘Ahh…’

It was a first for Lane.

Seeing Lee Ha-yu, who has always worked foolishly and honestly, lying still in bed.

‘What should I say when I wake up? What expression should I make?’

Hayu has plenty of reasons to be angry with herself.

She had punished her a lot these days, but she was afraid that the existence of Lee Ha-yu would be ruined like this.

As Lane looked at Hayu lying there for a while, Eliana, who was involved in the case, approached.

“sorry. You can’t care for the seeds properly. It’s my fault.”

“……”

She is a woman from the Serius family. Besides, since it was the primary cause, Rain didn’t want to mix things up.

“You and I are both royal class, but we can’t treat a single servant properly.”

“……”

When there was only awkward silence, a professor named Agnel Legermond appeared to investigate the case.

She glanced at Hayu and handed the lesson plan to Lane.

“A relationship of trust between a knight and a servant. This is the education you need right now.”

Eliana looked over the syllabus with a sad expression.

And handed over the plan to Lane.

“It will be difficult for me to apply because I lost my seed, but Arain, you might not be late.”

“……”

Professor Agnel tried to close the case by excluding Lane from it.

I didn’t want rumors about the demonic exchange student getting involved in something unpleasant even before school started.

“Ahrain, please listen to this lecture.”

Instead, he recommended that Lane take this class.

Lane quietly accepted the plan.

‘…If you take this class…’

Wouldn’t it be possible to indirectly convey my sincerity to Nama Hayu? It was a thought.

But to think the unimaginable words would come out of his mouth…

* * *

“……”

“……”

I stood still like a fighter waiting for death after meeting a strong enemy in the Colosseum.

– Would you kneel even if I told you to kneel? Would you kneel down? Would you kneel down?

Only this thought runs through my head like a neon sign on a billboard.

Well, it’s X.

Definitely fucked up.

No matter how much it is an academy, I crossed the line excitedly.

In the previous world, when I was a college student, I always played like this when I had palm time with my seniors.

-Now, it’s Yaja Time. start!

– Hey, Hyeong-sik, let’s do something well, shall we?

-This bastard is crazy.

For Silk Yaja Time, it is rather an insider style and does not spoil the atmosphere.

I excuse myself, but there’s no way Lane will know.

Two words clearly came out of my mouth. ‘Kneel down’

How to deal with this sudden rash?

Fortunately, these two letters were only passed on to Lane.

It’s a syllable that came out without me knowing. The pronunciation was a little unclear and the sound was not loud.

If you see that everyone is not interested, it is clear that the students around you have not heard either.

“……”

In the heavy silence, Lane was making an expression of about 50% anger, 25% embarrassment, and 25% unknown.

If you see the temples and cheeks twitching among the facial muscles, it means that you are feeling quite angry.

And he had an expression on his face, asking him to explain the situation further, to try to fix it.

– Tiring.

thoughts in the meantime.

‘It sounds sweet.’

okay. Even if you enter the tiger’s den, you just need to be alert. I started shaking my head like crazy.

At that time, I noticed Eliana having a serious conversation with Agnel.

-Have you thought of any seed candidates?

-…I think I should ask the family directly.

As I didn’t say anything, Lane’s eyebrows slowly began to frown.

she spat angrily.

“In other words.”

Let’s be more shameless in times like this. I quickly whispered what I had planned.

“miss. I read the syllabus. There was definitely a creative element.”

“……”

I spoke as loudly as possible, preferably enough for Eliana to hear.

“Anyway, isn’t it a knight’s class? So… I think you can think of a knight swearing-in ceremony. Uh… about the knight appointing ceremony. A knight kneels on his right knee, and a master or superior strikes his shoulder or head with a sword… If this is reproduced, wouldn’t it be possible to get a high score…”

“……”

“I want to…”

[The hostility of ‘Arain S. Aspondel’ rises. Be careful with your behavior!]

Fucked.

I said even louder.

“Ah, is it right to have a knight swearing-in ceremony like this…? is not it? Anyone know?”

Everyone looks this way at my silly voice.

“!!!”

And finally, Eliana’s eyes met.

She came this way as if she noticed something. She greeted her as if she were happy.

“I guess you signed up for this class, too.”

“Ah, Eliana-sama, can you show me the… knight ordination ceremony?”

“…a ceremony?”

She read my bewildered eyes and, without a moment’s hesitation, knelt down on her right knee.

And his head was slightly bowed. It was the perfect angle.

“Are you talking about this?”

The eyes of the surroundings gather. No matter how much, the vice president showed me this kind of appearance to me, a lowly citizen.

Agnel clapped in amazement.

“Yes! Here, the lord striking the shoulder with a sword at the swearing-in ceremony is a kind of declaration ceremony…”

As Agnel’s explanation began and unexpected situations continued, Lane’s expression relaxed little by little.

It’s obviously not clear, but I think I can somehow put an end to it if I did this much.

– Clap clap clap.

Along with the professor’s praise, everyone applauded Eliana’s performance.

“Yeah. It is also Eliana. You did exactly what I asked for…”

Feeling sorry, I flattered her and she came to my side and whispered as if it were natural.

“I promised to pay off the debt. heh You’re more daring than I thought.”

Then go back to your seat and resume training.

‘It’s cool.’

A real knight would speak of such a person.

I turned my gaze back to Lane.

“……”

Big hum. It’s a grumpy expression. Let’s just apologize and be done.

“It’s off topic.”

“…no dinner.”

“…yes.”

fuck.

The class ended with a good evaluation.

* * *

“Today was also full of ups and downs.”

The day at the academy is over.

After two of Lane’s lectures, I had to go back to the servitor’s office for the rest of the classes.

It’s a really crazy timetable. Even the Royal Class had more classes.

There is a saying that kings in the old days could not sleep for several hours, but it seems that there is no end to learning.

There was no call from Lane, so I headed straight to the dormitory.

– Aww.

After entering the dormitory, washing is the first priority. I got water in the bathtub.

“Having a bathroom is real honey.”

Unlike Rain’s mansion, it is an environment where even the servants can wash in private.

After a long time, I finished the bath pills the saintess had given me.

“Remaining Seven Deadly Sins points.”

——————————-

Remaining Seven Deadly Sins: 6

Strength: 10

Endurance (Mental Strength): 10

Intellect: 5

mana: 10

Flexible: 8

Luck: 1

——————————-

In addition, today’s income, 5 points of anger, 1 point of gluttony.

A total of 6 points.

If you collect 4 points, you can learn the next skill again.

Even if it crosses the line a bit, it’s only a matter of time before you extort points from Lane if you do it this way.

“Let’s only be careful of the family, only the family.”

The biggest reason for Rain to crawl is his family.

Because of that, I became stronger and skipped classes. And find a clue to disassociation.

According to Seta, whom I met by chance during afternoon class, there is a library that only the royal class can enter.

If you can only skip grades, you can narrow the information gap.

And finally get away from Lane completely.

‘I’m sure I’ll eat the meat too…’

It’s a simple idea, but at the moment, this is the best, so I let my happy imagination fly.

-smart.

Um, what is it? I think someone knocked on the door.

– Smart smart.

The sound was a little more solid.

* * *

At the same time, Lane washed up and lay down on the bed.

Even after washing and changing into comfortable clothes, something feels uncomfortable.

– Get down.

Hayu’s words are firmly embedded in his brain.

And it was an unimaginably emotionless voice.

These words keep resonating in my head, and I can’t forget them until I listen to other lectures.

“Obviously… it has changed.”

He was a guy who always listened to what he said. But these days it’s strange.

He had never said anything against her heart to the point of seeming obstinate.

That’s why the remarks made during the lecture didn’t quite make sense in Lane’s mind.

“Academy… has it changed?”

Am I being looked down on?

Or did the word “kneel” really only refer to the ordination ceremony of a knight?

not. Even a little kid can tell. It was clearly a voice of rebellion and unknown sadness.

so i’m angry The embarrassment and shame I felt as soon as I heard those words, and the anger that was hard to hide.

– Fang Fang!

“Lee Ha-yu…!”

Lane beats the bed and kills the minutes.

If you think about the cause, it’s probably because of the airship.

The command to lick chocolate. That may have been the catalyst.

“Ugh…”

The person giving the order didn’t know, but when he heard it, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of contempt.

I have no choice but to admit it.

“The atmosphere has changed since then…”

Hayu’s hopeful eyes grew clearer, but for some reason, his smile began to dry up.

“Mmm…”

Come to think of it, I’ve only been bothering you lately. Right now, he was a patient until yesterday, and he must be hungry because he didn’t allow him to eat today.

She buries her face in the pillow once again.

“Have I been a little harsh lately?”

Come to think of it, Eliana knelt down proudly.

-Are you talking about this?

Innocently, like a knight imitating the ceremony for no other reason, there was no hesitation.

Unlike magic, which is the criterion for classifying identities, knights and servants train their bodies together with their servants from an early age.

Therefore, the appearance of such knights who knew how to change positions might be the right master-servant relationship.

Eliana did something that I could never do.

This creates a strange feeling of jealousy.

Lee Ha-yu’s expression clearly showed her admiration for her.

“Am I jealous? For Lee Ha-yu?”

For a moment, Lane imagined that Eliana and Hayu had a relationship between a knight and a servant.

I feel very uncomfortable.

The two of them have strong personalities, so they will always try to overcome something, and they will be devoted.

They will not give in to any trials, and each will support each other.

Lane began to feel a sense of crisis for no reason.

“From now on… I just need to be good to you from now on.”

She firmly believed that if she did that, the changed Hayu would come back.

* * *

– Smart smart smart.

Someone constantly knocks on the door.

It probably feels like that until you open it.

‘Ah-oh. The water is getting cold.’

I roughly picked up my clothes and headed for the door.

-Kiririk.

When I opened the door, there stood a little boy with blue hair in a cute pajama.

“hi?”

She greeted me with a cheerful voice.

She looks just like a little princess from a fairy tale book. For what purpose did you come here dressed like this?

“…who are you?”

“Aren’t we familiar? I am Isabella, daughter of Duke Isaac. You say you’re interested in disassociating yourself?”

“That… how?”

“I will help you. disengagement. enter?”

She, tall enough to fit my chest, passed me in an instant and headed for my bed.

And knock on the bed.

“Come quickly and sit down.”

“Wow.”

crazy

I thought you would come to me yourself.
