313 – It’s slanted
Diagonal eyebrows that go down inward.
It’s an atmosphere that’s hard to dare to encounter because it feels like if you say hello, you’ll be met with a curt look.
This was the usual appearance of Hwivien that the cadets remembered.
“hehehe~”
A humming sound with a happy, relaxed expression.
When you say hello, they give you a friendly smile and a soft atmosphere that makes you think, ‘Yes, it’s a beautiful day~’.
This is what Hwivien looked like today.
The cadets who encountered Hwivien at the academy today were confused by her unusual appearance.
Did Whivienne have twins?
That can’t be possible.
Then what on earth?
How?
Whivien, who was like an angry owl, became an oriole singing about her happiness overnight!?
Surprisingly, they reached a conclusion without difficulty.
In general, people who are in love are visible on the outside.
Me!
I’m in love right now~!
All over the academy, there were celebrities who were always thirsty for gossip.
The hyenas quickly smelled the scent and asked for food.
“Hwivien found someone you like?!?”
“If you look at Whivienne, it seems like she doesn’t just have someone she likes, right?”
“What do you think?”
“When I saw her, she was probably humming with happiness, right?”
“…That Whivien?”
The embers of Whivienne’s love affair, which had begun to spread in the morning, were burning with enough force to engulf her entire academy by the afternoon.
“What is it? What is it? What is it that is making our professors so happy? Huh~? Everyone except me and feel sorry~?”
Even among faculty and staff!
Is there any firewood with as much firepower as the love of the daughter of a great family? Even taking that into account, it could be said to have abnormal firepower.
“Ah, Instructor Sinia! “You’ve come at the right time!”
“But if you willingly add it in like this, the story will be different~ What is it? What is it~?”
“Anyway, there was something I wanted to ask instructor Sinia. Instructor Sinia, are you aware of the rumor that is currently a hot topic at the academy? “Miss Hwivien, the head of the first-year Magic Department, has a lover.”
“Hmmm~ Our professors still have green leaves in a corner of their hearts~ I can’t believe we can be so burned by our babies’ gossip~!”
“Hey, Instructor Sinia.”
“Of course! I’m not doing this just because of that one thing. “At our age, is there anything more important than being inflamed by the gossip of your students?”
“If you listen to the story, do you think Instructor Sinia will be as interested as we are?”
“Hmm~ What on earth are you talking about~? “Is it true that our Huvienne cadet is a commoner?”
“More than that! More! “It can be said to be shocking!”
“There is someone who is considered the strongest candidate right now, but he also happens to be a commoner.”
“Commoner? Huh~? “No way~?”
“That’s right! A Ceylon cadet! No, should I say Hero Ceylon?”
“Our number 348 is in a relationship with Cadet Whivien~!?”
“There is no solid physical evidence yet, but isn’t it plausible?”
“Honestly, who else but a Ceylon cadet would be able to meet the discerning eye of that fastidious Whivien cadet!”
“The two have often hung out together since ancient times!”
“After listening to this, I’m quite intrigued~!?”
“That’s right, isn’t it!?”
Hero Ceylon.
It was the secret to firepower.
“But, commoners and great nobles… “Is this unprecedented?”
“Is that person just a commoner?”
“Ah. But.”
Ceylon, a commoner, and Hwivienne, a great noble representing the nobility.
Under normal circumstances, this was a combination that would never be tolerated in an aristocratic society that values face.
“If the rumors are true, the other great families will feel a little sick to their stomachs.”
“So.”
However, the current status of the person named Ceylon has even drawn support beyond understanding from the nobles.
A rumor that many people are interested in and support.
That wasn’t much different from the truth.
“No!!! “I can’t believe you have a man!!!”
“Is your competitor the hero who saved the world? What kind of overwhelming despair is this? !”
“Ha… I heard that Sir Ceylon will be returning to the academy soon, so I was hoping that maybe he could get along well with him… “
“As expected, good things are taken from the great family first… “
In this way, the romantic relationship between Ceylon and Whivien becomes a fait accompli –
“Editor-in-Chief, can you take a look at this!!!”
Spread throughout the continent.
It all happened in just one day.
***
“Is it almost time?”
After checking the time, Ceylon muttered with a tired look.
10 Am.
It was time for the person in charge to come to us with all the agenda items.
When Ceylon remembered today’s agenda, he picked his ears for no reason.
‘Would you like to enjoy a full concert of nine renowned bands on the continent and personally select the band that will play at the festival? I’ll be amazed. What do I know about music and what do I know about bands? Debsho is the only band I know of.’
Do whatever you want!
Ceylon wanted to quit the Erado festival right now and return to the Academy to enjoy his youth with his friends.
And if he, the hero of the continent, wanted it, it would actually happen.
“Ugh…”
But Ceylon eventually catches his heart.
The Peace Festival, a festival that will be held on an unprecedented scale in the history of the continent.
The reason the Grand Assembly entrusted the authority to decide on the details of the peace system to Ceylon was, of course, not to pass on troublesome work to him.
It was an opportunity for Ceylon, who was recognized for his contribution to saving the continent, was given a title, and was reborn as a full-fledged nobleman.
Nobles often held parties and banquets to impress their presence in aristocratic society, and the Great Assembly provided an opportunity for Ceylon to hold such events on a continental scale.
So that Ceylon, which has just become an aristocrat, can quickly integrate into aristocratic society.
For example, Ceylon was the formal organizer and protagonist of the Peace Festival, an auspicious festival that soothed the pain of war.
‘No matter how much I say it, it’s not enough to ruin this place.’
He had a duty to live up to people’s expectations.
That’s what a hero was.
In a moment.
Ceylon went out to the entrance of the mansion to greet his scheduled guests.
“…Huh?”
And I was surprised.
“Yena, how did this happen?”
It wasn’t because Jena, the Libringer family’s maid, was in the courtyard of the mansion.
She was the person in charge and helper appointed by the Grand Council to enable Ceylon to successfully carry out its role.
It is safe to say that the housekeeper she took charge of at the Ceylon mansion was a butler.
“I really want to ask you something.”
It was a mess.
No, should I call it a treasure edition?
The courtyard of the Ceylon mansion was filled with all kinds of valuables.
“No way. Did all of these come to me?”
Yena’s glasses lenses sparkled and were filled with light.
“Yes. It came to ‘two people’.”
“You two…?”
Jena’s tone of speaking with significant emphasis was extremely cold.
She muttered softly as she checked her stationery wrapped in her gift.
“The Veren family, the Funesi family, the Radurg family, the Aspien family, and the Morsi family. It’s amazing. It’s so amazing. To be congratulated by so many families. It’s very auspicious.”
Ceylon followed Jena and found the letter in her pile of treasures, so she picked it up and started reading it.
Then, a sentence that summarized the contents of the letter immediately caught my eye.
It was also a sentence that explained the whole story of this situation.
[Congratulations on the marriage of Whivien Leolian and Ceylon Adonis]
“…What.”
Who is marrying whom?
Jena’s cold gaze fell on Ceylon, who was distracted by the destructive power contained in that sentence.
“You spoke so kindly about our young lady…”
Yena’s eyes even became red as she recalled the past days when she had praised the young lady she had given to Ceylon.
“Uh… Mr. Yena…? Could you please calm down and listen to what I have to say…?”
“No, there is no way to prevent smoke from coming out of an open chimney.”
“Yes?”
“Can you say for sure that nothing happened with Leolian?”
“Uh…”
Tsk.
The maid clicked her tongue and turned her head away from her man.
“I’ll call the people who will organize the gifts. You’ll be very busy today with related matters. I’ll also postpone the schedule scheduled for today.”
Yena left those words and left without even looking back.
Ceylon felt with her whole body that Jena’s favorability level, which she had worked so hard to build, was plummeting in an instant, but she had no time to worry about that right now.
“Miss Whivienne…! What on earth have you done…!”
No way, this lady.
Did she start a rumor in the neighborhood that she and I were having a great time!?
It was the moment when Ceylon’s spine began to send chills in earnest.
“…!”
Ceylon, who felt a strong mana reaction, headed straight to his office.
There were eight crystal balls of various colors placed on the desk in his office.
It was a crystal sphere that was connected to each of the eight members of the National Assembly.
“Oh my god, my eyes are narrowed.”
The eight crystal spheres were emitting light at the same time.
Ceylon wanted to pick up those crystal balls with all her might and throw them on the floor.
So-called diving!
But diving is all about diving.
“…”
Ceylon’s eyes were fixed on the crystal ball that gave off green light.
In this situation, are you ignoring the contact from the person who is Whivien’s guardian?
No matter how shameless the man with the slit eyes was, it wasn’t enough.
Hero Ceylon trembled and activated the crystal ball.
-Ceylon, is it there?
The majestic voice of the great master flowed from the crystal sphere.
“Yes…! Lord Ravien…! It’s me. Ceylon…!”
No, the voice of a guardian of a daughter in her prime came out.
Now, the voice of the guardian was more frightening to Ceylon than the voice of the head lord.
-Hero Ceylon. Since construction will be completely ruined, I will get straight to the point. I heard the news. You and your child have entered into a relationship that promises the future, right?
“Ah, that…!”
In most situations, Yeokjisaji is a great help in resolving human relationships.
Ceylon tried to change its position.
What would you be like if you were in Ravien’s position right now?
With her own mouth, Hwivienne said to her Lavienne, ‘Mommy! She couldn’t have said, ‘I’m marrying Ceylon!’
In other words, Ravien heard through a third party, not her daughter, that her daughter, who was still just a student, had promised to marry a bastard. Will be.
From Noble mtl dot com
Even the identity of that bastard was a professor at the academy her daughter attended.
Professor and cadet.
A professor and a drunken cadet.
‘Wouldn’t you want to kill me!?’
Ceylon’s eyes darkened.
No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t see a way out of this situation.
-…
Meanwhile, Ravien’s patience as he waited for Ceylon’s words reached its limit.
-When would be a good time?
“…Yes? What do you mean-“
Do you want me to decide the day I want to have a funeral?
Ceylon remembered the day before when he had taken the virginity of cadet Hwivien, who was drunk and in a state of incompetence, and his hands were shaking like a criminal.
That moment.
-What are you talking about!
“…Huh?”
Ceylon realized it too late.
The emotion contained in Ravien’s voice is not ‘anger’ but ‘impatience’.
-Of course the engagement ceremony- No! Aren’t you talking about a wedding?
Ravien is a monarch who has ruled a region for a long time.
This would have been absolutely impossible if he had been someone who could be swayed by rumors originating from gossip.
She considered the rumors spreading around the continent to be true.
The reason was simple.
‘Great job, my baby!!!’
Ceylon was a much better son-in-law than he thought.
Ravien was planning to use this incident as an excuse to pierce Ceylon’s nose.
-Oh, indeed. Look at my mind. You’re so busy preparing for the festival right now, you probably don’t have the time to worry about other things. Isn’t it?
“Uh… Right… Right…?”
-So, leave the wedding preparations to me!
“Yes?”
-I will prepare everything on my own, so all you have to do is bring your body. No! There’s nothing to bring! We’ll go! Right now! Tomorrow! After we finish preparing for the engagement ceremony, I will visit your mansion.
“No, wait a minute, Lord Ravien-“
-Well then, see you tomorrow!
Suddenly. The light of the crystal sphere goes out,
Ravien ended the conversation as if he was hastily putting things into a bag.
“…”
That day.
Ceylon was so concerned about propriety that nothing could be done.
It’s a mess.
It is truly a mess.
Could things get more complicated than this?
There was.
That night.
“Open the door, owner~”
There was a woman who was very drunk and visited Ceylon’s house without contacting her.
It was Miz.
“Hey, since we’re killing the moon today, shall we have a drink together?”
And it was Kasha.
“Ceylon…? Do you mind if I have a moment?”
It was Aedrine.
“””…Huh?”””
Where and what did you hear?
The women visited Ceylon’s house at the same time, in the same way, and in the same condition, and looked at each other in an awkward atmosphere.
“Miss Whivienne…!!!
Ceylon covered her face with her palms and muttered the name.
