202 – Moonlight Night (2)
What did you do after finishing the conversation between Dan Ye-rin and Moonlight Night?
I didn’t do anything. She returned to Grace’s side and she quietly closed her eyes.
She is not sleeping, but her consciousness is half awake. It is similar to a dog staying by its owner’s side.
If someone approaches you or you sense a strange energy, you can react immediately.
I wonder if I should go that far, but it’s not something I can do as I please. It’s just automatic.
Moreover, you have to pay attention to Dan Ye-rin in the next room. Because there was no way to know when Yeo-hye would threaten Dan Ye-rin.
All I knew was that there was an assassination attempt at dawn, but it was difficult to know the exact time.
“Wow…Is this all cooked by Mr. Shivar?”
“Yes.”
“There’s no need to even prepare breakfast…”
Time passed and morning dawned, and I got ready in the morning before Grace woke up.
It is a light breakfast, not a hearty breakfast according to the Western diet.
Sausage and bread. Fried eggs and salad. I prepared everything myself.
“Grace.”
“Yes.”
“Did you eat breakfast?”
“I’m too lazy to do it myself, so I just make bread…”
I thought so too. Since you are a duke’s daughter, it would be troublesome to do it yourself.
However, it is best to eat breakfast regularly. Of course, it’s for your health.
Regular lifestyle habits are good, not bad. It will also be a great help in growth.
“I’ll do it from now on. Eat and go.”
“Oh, no. There’s no need to do that…”
“Just eat it.”
“······Yes.”
Grace was able to fill her stomach with pressure, not my pressure.
There is no need to worry about calories. If you use magic power, it will naturally be consumed.
This is a place where mechanical civilization has not yet developed, so surprisingly few people gain weight.
Even Santia, where science has developed, is no different. It has not been long since obesity emerged as a social problem on Earth.

‘Rather, the problem is that there is nothing to eat.’
In that sense, Grace also indulged in extravagance. I don’t know at all.
Because the forest was self-sufficient, I know better than anyone else the importance of food.
That’s why it was hard to see someone skipping breakfast. Some people work hard to make a living, while others skip breakfast.
“Is it delicious?”
“Yes. It’s strangely delicious. Why is it delicious?”
That’s because it contains herbs. Herbs are essential instead of spices.
So, after eating a simple yet hearty breakfast, I was ready to head to the classroom.
“Now, please comb my hair.”
“Would you like me to comb it?”
“Yes. I don’t know because it’s my first time with Sibar, but escorts are supposed to do things like this.”
Probably not. No matter how stupid I am, my escort wouldn’t do something like this.
But I thought I would get a strange answer if I asked, so I brushed it off.
Brushing one’s hair is also proof of trust, so it wasn’t a bad thing for me.
‘Your hair is really nice.’
The hair is as shiny and shiny as it appears in commercials. As the daughter of a noble family, she must have received all the necessary management.
Every time I brushed my hair, Grace made nasal sounds as if she was happy. When I looked in the mirror, I was even smiling softly.
It looks like all the fatigue has gone away after just one night of sleep. I tilted my head wondering if that was the extent of it, but I passed on the fact that I liked Grace.
“Then let’s start a good day today.”
“Yes.”
After completing all preparations, the two of us walked side by side to the classroom.
Even as she was walking, Grace chattered like a lark. She seemed to be feeling pretty good.
I wanted to agree with him, but I still lack language skills. Still, he showed his utmost sincerity.
‘When will this guy’s words change?’
My faith has surpassed 300, but my language skills remain the same. Is there something I don’t know?
Or it may have become a habit. It was a bit annoying and I was always listening.
Grace is smiling brightly, as if she is satisfied with just this. All of my usual sharp impression disappeared.
‘Is it that good?’
The fact that she has a rational interest in me. That’s a fact everyone knows.
They say people become fools when they fall in love, but Grace fit that description. The gap was felt immediately.
Still, it is much better to wander around like an idiot than to be under a lot of stress.
If I can be a healer, I can be willing to do so. It’s not that I don’t like it, I actually like it.
“Hello, everyone! Good morning everyone!”
“··· ···”
But it seems like it has become too bright. I felt a little nervous when I saw Grace, who greeted me energetically.
I don’t think it has changed too much compared to yesterday.
“How do you look so happy? Did you sleep well?”
Kara chuckled as she looked at the lively Grace. She seems to know everything.
Grace sat down in her usual seat and answered in her characteristic, confident voice.
“Of course. It’s been a long time since I’ve had a good night’s sleep. I just realized that the morning sunlight would be so welcome.”
“Okay. That’s it.”
Unexpectedly, Kara seemed to just ignore it. Looking at her smiling face, it’s clear she knows something.
I guess it’s closer to tolerance rather than jealousy. It was almost like I was being watched just this once.
“As long as it doesn’t hurt your back. If that’s the case, I’ll make a fuss. Understand?”
“··· ···”
Grace could not easily respond to young Kara’s threatening remarks. Rolling her eyes, she did her best to avoid answering.
She gave him a strange look, as if Kara felt something strange, and then she asked again.
“Answer.”
“······Chesh.”
“Cheh? Cheeet? You keep trying to cross the line? Are you really a noble? Are all Matra Empire nobles like this?”
“Well, what do you think?”
Hmm. A fierce battle of wits is already underway. I feel like I’m the only one caught in between.
She was pretending not to know as best as she could, but the atmosphere was so intense that she could only stare at her desk.
‘Now that I think about it, the frequency of Kara and Grace fighting has increased.’
There is definitely a feeling that Grace is stepping up. Even Kara must have felt threatened.
I don’t know what the outcome will be, but for now, Grace has the advantage. Basically, when the body becomes distant, the mind also becomes distant.
Conversely, when the body becomes closer, the mind also becomes closer. Moreover, no one knows what will happen as long as a man and a woman stay in the same room.
“I really only have to endure it for one semester. I accepted for no reason. So what did you do yesterday?”
“I didn’t do much yesterday because I was moving my luggage. Starting today, I have to study.”
“Huh?”
I haven’t heard of you studying. I opened my eyes and looked at Grace.
Kara asked in a curious voice whether she noticed something in response to my reaction.
“He looks like he’s hearing this for the first time? Why is academics suddenly a subject?”
“No matter how smart you are, Mr. Shivar, if you haven’t learned anything, it’s useless. Even if it’s not basic common sense, you need to learn the basics of math.”
“Didn’t you learn math when you lived with the president?”
“······Yes.”
At that time, I was busy learning basic common sense and writing. I couldn’t afford to learn things like math.
Kara said with an expression of surprise, as if she hadn’t expected that.
“Really? Well, there were other things besides math that were urgent at the time. I guess I can learn it now.”
“Kara, you think so too, right? Mathematics in particular focuses on reason rather than human senses, so it will be of great help to you, Sivar.”
“I don’t like it.”
I don’t know anything else, but I hate math. Mathematics is a subject that people on Earth hate more than anything else.
It’s definitely not that I did as poorly as Supoja. On the contrary, my grades were relatively good.
So she hated it even more. The more I sell this crap, the more annoying things come out.
Furthermore, unless you become a professor, basic arithmetic is sufficient. I believe so.
“No. Mathematics is a subject that is very helpful not only in basic arithmetic but also in logic. It’s not called mathematical thinking for nothing, right?”
“That’s right. It’s such a waste to only use that good head for headbutting. It’s not a bad idea to learn it once.”
“··· ···”
With Kara agreeing with me, I could no longer resist. Instead, she shifted her target elsewhere.
That is none other than Grace. If she’s going to teach me math, she should get something in return.
And when it came to teaching, there was only one thing.
“Then Grace too.”
“Huh? Why me?”
“Let’s exercise. I’ll tell you.”
“Woah, exercise?”
Increasing the weak physical strength suitable for a wizard. That’s what I’ll tell you.
Grace also reacted in confusion when I told her that I would teach her exercises. This seems unexpected.
Then she regained her composure, cleared her throat, and began to slip away.
“Gwae, it’s okay. I’m a wizard, right? I need to build up my stamina to use magic…”
“Physical strength is national strength. It’s the same for wizards.”
“Well, that’s true, but…”
“Magic power also increases. Wizard magic power is important.”
“Wow. You speak well.”
Kara next to me was impressed by my logical words. In reality, physical strength and magical power are related to each other.
Even if you have enough mana, there are many cases where you lack stamina. Rather than physical strength, I would say it is endurance.
Greater effectiveness can be expected only when they are well balanced. In particular, Grace has unusually weak physical strength.
“Shivar is right. Grace’s physical strength is very weak.”
Luna, who had been quiet until now, intervened. Staring at her Grace, it seems like he was spying on her abilities.
I wanted to ask him to tell me more detailed abilities, but I decided against it. I’ll have to ask this later.
Was Grace also well aware of her own weaknesses? She said in an exasperated voice at Luna’s point.
“Well, how does Luna know that?”
“She was struggling alone when she went up to the altar. Eli also came up with long strides.”
“Well, that’s…”
“Raise your speech to exactly 40… No, raise it to just below Ellie.”
Hey. Is your stamina less than 40? How weak are you?
Grace was about to protest, but when she saw our faces, she let out a deep sigh.
Needless to say, Kara and I are monsters, and Luna is a poisonous type, so she tends to have more strength than her physical strength.
“······Okay, I guess I should study one day and exercise one day.”
“Okay, just be careful. Sivar will never look after you. At first, I thought I was going to die from the pain.”
“··· ···”
It seems like Luna’s snout is slowly starting to start. I watched her mouth closely.
Kara glanced sideways at Luna as if she felt something. It seemed like he didn’t know anything.
“······Did it hurt a lot?”
“Yes. But it was okay once I got used to it. Although it has a bit of a mischievous side.”
“What kind of exercise did you do?”
Luna’s answer to this was truly awe-inspiring.
“Waist exercise?”
“··· ···”
“··· ···”
It’s really scary that she didn’t lie.
When a cold yet heavy silence fell for a moment, she suddenly felt eyes on her and looked ahead.
When I looked in front of her, I saw Dan Yerin looking at me with a strange expression.
How long has it been since we stared at each other like that for a while? Dan Yerin stood up from her seat and came towards me.
“My dear.”
“Huh?”
“Princess?”
Dan Ye-rin’s soft voice breaks the cold atmosphere. All eyes of her people were focused on her.
Dan Ye-rin looked around at the faces of people around me and then she smiled delicately. It’s quite an alluring smile.
“You didn’t forget your promise tonight, right? I also prepared some good drinks.”
“··· ···”
“Then I guess I’ll wait.”
Dan Ye-rin leaves after saying only what she has to say. I looked at her back from a distance.
If she had said it out loud, she would have been quite loud. But it’s okay.
“What were you saying? I couldn’t understand a word because it was an Eastern language.”
“Me too. Sivar would have understood.”
“What did you say?”
Because Dan Yerin used the language of the East. Here, she says, I am the only one who knows the language of the East.
Actually, it was closer to understanding rather than knowing. I listened to their questions and answered them calmly.
“I heard the restaurant was delicious yesterday.”
“Restaurant?”
“Yes. I recommended it yesterday.”
Grace seems to be accumulating guilt for no reason.
