192 – Transfer Student (1)
Time passed and Luna’s penalty points disappeared.
Thanks to the fact that it was a freshman banquet and the testimony of people around us, the committee did not tackle the event.
However, living together with Grace did not proceed very well. From what I heard, the regulations are stricter than I thought.
If I were a woman, it would have been easier to get approved, but the problem is that I am a man. Even if you are an escort, cohabitation between people of the opposite sex is almost impossible.
“Why are you saying it can’t be done?”
Ellie asked after hearing the situation. The surprising reaction was that her eyes were wide open.
Grace, sitting across from him, let out a long sigh. He seems frustrated himself.
“It’s difficult because of the regulations. First of all, it’s difficult to hire a student as an escort. Plus, we’re in the same class.”
“Why is that?”
“Even if everything else is fine, there’s a test. If we end up in a different group, we’ll be in trouble in many ways.”
This means that it ultimately comes down to regulations. It seemed like it would take longer than expected.
Still, since the contract has the seal of the Duke of Berce, there is a strong possibility that it will be resolved quickly.
Moreover, since Grace had a clear cause, it would be difficult for the Academy to ignore it.
I’m doing this to be careful of things that might cause criticism. Didn’t they say precedent is important no matter what?
“So, there is no choice but for Mr. Shivar and I to continue to be on the same team. The professors are probably sharing their opinions by now.”
“I see.”
“Yum yum.”
I was busy eating snacks whether they were talking or not.
Today’s snack is a cake that Grace bought herself. It’s also a sweet chocolate cake.
While I was receiving training from Rod as usual, Grace came to visit.
For reference, there are currently three people training in the backyard: Rod, Luna, and Kara.
“I’m jealous. Can I live with you?”
“I’m sorry, but I don’t know about two people, but I can’t do anything about three or more people. The contract only relates to Mr. Sibar’s escort.”
“This is shameful.”
“I know, too.”
In response to Ellie’s grumbling, Grace puffed out her breasts and puffed up. It’s also pretty cute when Ellie grumbles like that.
Of course, cake is the most important thing to me now. It’s sweet enough to make your tongue tingle a little, but it’s even better.
Moreover, it wasn’t bitten. It looks like he bought a pretty expensive cake.
“Don’t do that, I want to stay with Shivar. It’s cowardly to have it all to yourself.”
“I’m sorry, but I have a hard time sleeping without Mr. Sivar. You’re not Eli, right?”
“What are you talking about again? Please join me too.”
Kara, who seemed to have just finished training, intervened. She was wiping her sweat with a towel.
The outfit was the same one I had seen before, and my eyes naturally turned to the abdomen.
Extremely firm abs. Honestly, I want to touch it at least once.
Of course, if I did that, I would be treated as a pervert, so I suppressed it.
Instead, Ellie should touch her breasts later. These days, it seems like my desire has become strangely stronger.
‘Is it puberty?’
I am so interested in that area that it is difficult to suppress it.
It must be an ordeal that one must endure since one is born as a male creature.
In fact, men are animals with strong instincts, so there is nothing we can do about it. Even if it’s not me, it’s probably the same for other people.
“Sister. Don’t you think it’s unfair for Grace to have Sivar all to herself?”
“Ah. You mean escort?”
Kara naturally sits next to me. Then she gently placed her hand on my head.
Afterwards, he gently stroked my head and opened his mouth as if to say that he was okay.
“What can I do? They say they want to live together like that. But that doesn’t mean Sivar will hate us, does it?”
“Um… Is that so?”
“Okay. Just looking at it, I don’t think I’ll do anything unnecessary… But don’t cross the line. The moment you cross the line, it’ll be a muddy fight. Understood?”
“Yum yum.”
While Kara was warning Grace, she stuffed the rest of her cake into her mouth. I think it would be a good idea to buy another one later.
“Don’t worry about that. I don’t have any plans to do that just yet. Sivar-san, you’re just my bodyguard, right?”
Grace ignored Kara’s warning. He looks confident.
There is no reason for me to be strict with her, so it is highly likely that she will get over it without any problems.
Instead, the most important thing is the period. After I finished eating the cake, I asked Grace a question.
“How much?”
“Yes?”
“How long? Escort period.”
Reactions may vary depending on how long the period is.
I wouldn’t know it in about a year, but if it was like that throughout my time at the Academy, it wouldn’t be a bit different.
Grace rolled her eyes at my question and answered cautiously.
“······About 5 years?”
“What? 5 Years? 5 Daughters?! Did you really gain a conscience and sell it?”
“5 Years means you can do it even after graduation!?”
“No. Is this how escorts are supposed to be?”
Hey. I didn’t know that either. You’re making such a fuss trying to pierce your nose.
While I was unable to hide my absurdity, a mud fight began. The saying ‘too much is too little is too little’ was a perfect fit.
I wanted to sneak away, but I couldn’t because I was caught in the middle. Just sit still and listen.
“Okay, I’ll admit that I was overly greedy, but it’s still going to take quite a long time.”
“That’s okay. But isn’t five years too much? In that amount of time, you’ll have a child you never knew before.”
“Grace, don’t be too greedy. We’re just putting up with it, it’s not like we’re not doing anything.”
Ellie said that and pulled me towards her. My body naturally fell into her arms.
Her hair felt soft and fluffy. I always think about it, but it’s a truly magical feeling.
My entire body felt relieved and I had the urge to dig deeper. Still, I noticed it, so I just stayed still.
“Then, I would like to live with Shivar as an escort. Or we can take turns living together every quarter.”
“Oh. That’s okay? It’s fair and good.”
I am not public property. Is there no such thing as my opinion?
After Ellie’s remarks, controversy began again, but it was inevitable that Grace would be pushed out.
No matter how clear the justification is, the period is ridiculous. In the end, she had no choice but to take a step back.
“Okay. Then we’ll discuss it after this semester.”
“Okay. Anyway, what are you going to do first if you live with Shivar?”
“hehehe.”
Grace smiled slightly at Ellie’s question. Although I don’t know the reason, it’s a smile that feels sinister.
Her appearance also played a role here. It looks like he’s plotting a sinful plan.
“I’ve already made a plan. First, I plan to teach you various common sense and etiquette.”
“Is it etiquette?”
“Yes. It’s my guess, but there is a high possibility that Mr. Sivar will meet someone higher than me. You even met the crown prince last time, right?”
It was because of the special nature of the freshman banquet at that time. Moreover, the Crown Prince and Karas are also the eccentric of eccentrics, so it makes sense.
You could say I was lucky. Nobles tend to be strict and attach meaning to their every action.
“You can’t act like a child forever, right? Understanding and tolerance are two different things. So, I plan to prepare by teaching them etiquette.”
“It’s not such a bad plan. Even though I’m a princess, my etiquette is awkward.”
It’s etiquette. It’s not such a bad plan as Kara said.
In fact, it may be able to alleviate the perception that they are wild people to some extent.
Of course, it is difficult to do anything about the behavior itself. For me, it’s like cosplay.
-Ugh!
Then, suddenly, a loud scream was heard from the backyard. It’s Luna’s scream.
It looks like he is being beaten by Rod under the pretext of training. I know that I actually got beat up quite a bit.
“Luna is having a hard time too. How strong will she be next semester?”
“She’s growing at an incredible rate. In just a year, she’ll be like me, right?”
“Is it that much?”
“He has a bad mouth, but his skills and talent are certain.”
As Kara said, her Luna’s recent rise is unusual. I am literally absorbing Rod’s teachings.
The more Rod teaches, the more interested he becomes, and only training that is reminiscent of actual combat is in progress.
Thanks to that, it was only natural that her Luna’s skills improved greatly. It’s a talent worthy of a protagonist.
“And then who was it? Was it Lee Yeon-ju?”
“Why Yeonju?”
“I never saw you during vacation. I hung out with you during the semester.”
This is Lee Yeon-joo, who was originally treated as Grace’s favorite doll. And I haven’t seen him during the entire vacation.
Grace was said to have returned to the family, but Lee Yeon-ju did not even show off her nose. It’s hard to be stuck in the dormitory every day.
“He probably went back to his hometown. That’s what he told me.”
“Homeland? Hwan Empire?”
“Yes. Ah!”
Did something come to mind when you heard the term ‘Hwan Empire’? Grace exclaimed.
Everyone’s attention was focused on that. If you have the level of intelligence that Grace has, you probably know a lot.
Kara is similar to us when it comes to information. In fact, she throws away the authority of being a princess and lives her life, which is natural.
“I heard that a transfer student from the Hwan Empire was coming in. Was her name… Dan Ye-rin?”
“Dan Yerin?”
“Yes. I heard that she is a princess and fifth in line to the throne.”
Everyone would know Dan Ye-rin. The woman whom I offered a drink to and willingly accepted it.
She was an elegant and dignified woman in a different way from Grace. She has a foul mouth, but she can’t help it because of her stress.
Anyway, Dan Ye-rin’s arrival as a transfer student was a planned process. And she and Lee Yeon-ju, knowingly or unknowingly, will cause friction.
‘Because Dan Yerin also roughly knows who Lee Yeonju is.’
There is a high possibility that a quite complex incident will unfold. There isn’t much left until Lee Yeon-ju’s mask breaks.
In other words, the number of things I need to pay attention to has increased. Fortunately, this Luna can help ease her burden.
······He’s not very trustworthy, but he’s the main character, so he’ll figure it out. She is about to throw a chunk of her baggage away, knowingly or unknowingly.
“Why is someone like that coming to the Academy? What’s going on in the Hwan Empire?”
“Well, I don’t know much about it. It may be for a similar reason as Kara.”
“It looks like there’s a lot of talk internally.”
“From what I heard, they are causing trouble because of ethnic minorities.”
As I explained before, the Hwan Empire is similar to the Soviet Union. It is closer to a federation of countries rather than a single country.
However, the Hwan Empire is in a situation where it has easily struck the back and swallowed up the rest of the countries. It is natural that there is strong backlash.
They are oppressing them in some way, but as seen in the case of Lee Yeon-ju, they are steadily increasing their power. A civil war will break out after the incident.
The ‘minorities’ mentioned by Grace are actually not minorities but the people of each country. Even the language is different.
“Ah. And again…”
Knock knock knock-
It was just as Grace was about to speak. Someone knocked on the door.
Everyone’s eyes turned to that knocking sound. There is no one who can come anymore.
When everyone was looking puzzled, they heard the voices of strangers behind the door.
-Isn’t it here? I heard that the president is staying here during vacation.
-Could it be that he is absent?
If you just listen to her voice, it’s a woman. It looks like he came here to see Rod.
“I’ll go call the president. Ellie, please open the door.”
“Yes.”
Grace headed to the backyard and Ellie got up to open the door.
Afterwards, Ellie opened the door with the words, ‘I’m going.’ I looked at the people standing behind the door.
“Hmm. Who are you? I came to see the president.”
This is the face I saw at the new student banquet. Black hair and black eyes.
Her appearance was no different from what I saw back then. Gorgeous and distinct features. The lips especially stood out.
The clothing was also oriental, with an appropriate combination of black and red. Elegance and grace just flowed out.
“Ah. I’m Ellie. The president will be home soon.”
“I see. I understand. Let’s go in.”
“··· ···”
Dan Ye-rin came inside with her characteristic old-fashioned speaking style. She was also accompanied by a tall woman.
In terms of her height, she is similar to or taller than Kara. Her so-called long bones can be described as magnificent.
Her hair was also tied neatly into ponytails, giving off a strict image. The stubborn look is a bonus.
“Hmm?”
Dan Ye-rin came inside and raised her eyes as she looked at Kara. The expression on his face asks, “Why are you here?”
Kara was just staring at her because it was my first time seeing her, and I was also staring blankly.
Soon, Dan Yerin looked at me after Kara and tilted her head.
“It’s strange. If you look at his face, he looks like that wild person back then… Did he have any brothers?”
“It’s me.”
Since his face has changed in the time I haven’t seen him, he might react like that.
“So much has changed in such a short period of time? Hmm…”
However, Yerin responded that she was a little surprised and then she observed me quietly.
She then smiled delicately and said that she liked it.
“You’re more dignified than before. It won’t be awkward to drink now.”
“Do you want to drink later?”
“Good. I still remember the wine you poured.”
“······?”
Wait a minute. Isn’t it too natural to allow it?
‘I was joking?’
Somehow she ended up making a drinking date.
