Hug Goodbye
Turning her head, Countess Mary Ansberg with a terrifying expression was glaring at Felice.
“Ahhh… ”
Felice moans.
“Follow me.”
After saying that, the Countess turns back and disappears.
We looked at Felice with a worried expression.
“… Felice, would you like to come with me?”
Aine asks with a voice full of concern.
“ah… Thank you, kid. It’s okay though.”
Felice clenched her fists and made a determined expression.
Soon, she smiles and greets us with a hard-nosed smile.
Felice soon disappeared over the corner of the imperial hall, following the Countess.
We stand in place and wait for her.
Shortly thereafter, shouts were heard from afar in an invisible hallway.
And then you hear something hitting something over and over again.
We waited for Felice to return, feeling even more subdued.
How long have you been standing like that?
First comes the angry Countess Mary Ansberg.
She looks at us for a moment, then walks away without saying a word.
Then Felice slowly comes out of the corner.
Her cheeks were swollen and red as if she had been beaten a lot.
But even in the midst of that, Felice was smiling hard as if to reassure us.
We are all speechless, Felice tells us.
“Sorry to have kept you waiting. Let’s go now.”
Nodding, we started moving again.
I started thinking about Felice and Countess Mary Ansberg.
Certainly, this incident would have put the Countess in great trouble.
The prince and the Duke of Epsylt must have called the countess on purpose for this negotiation.
Not only did the two of them fail miserably, but even that wasn’t enough, so the daughter threw a mess.
The Count of Ansberg was also a member of the Imperial Family, like the Duke of Epsilt.
It was thanks to the strong support of the prince that the Count Ansberg was able to stand up this time.
In order to recover the damage caused by the attack of the gargoyles, the support of the Hwangja faction will be constantly needed in the future.
Now Felice has made that impossible.
But, anyway, anyway.
That’s why you beat your daughter like that, no matter how much you think about it, isn’t it insane?
In the first place, didn’t you say that the Countess even told the lies Felice had told people before?
What the hell does that woman think of her daughter?
Her mother crouches in defense of the man who tried to kill her.
Even that is not enough, so he lies to himself.
When he refused, he was slapped in the face.
Seriously, how miserable is Felice right now?
It’s just so pitiful
It’s a fact I felt when I shared a letter with Lucy before.
I feel pity for Lucy and Felice, who grew up in such a family.
Anyway, things worked out well, but everyone was looking at Felice, so there wasn’t much of a chattering atmosphere.
So slightly depressed, we returned the items we had left and left the Imperial Palace.
Chancellor Louisa Falken and Count Wallenstein didn’t show up until the end, wondering what they were talking about.
We got into the carriage and left the imperial palace.
Scarlet Marche and Sally put us in a carriage and took us straight to the academy.
way to the academy.
Sally steps in and tries to lighten the mood.
“Anyway, I’m glad everything worked out! Is not it?”
“yes!”
Veronica answers in a cheerful voice as well.
Everyone nods their heads.
However, in the meantime, are you worried?
Aine muttered in a rather dark voice.
“By the way, what should I do if something called the Imperial Investigation Team makes strange noises… ?”
“Hey, maybe it is!”
Master reassures Aine.
Scarlett Marche next to him also said a word.
“Yeah, don’t worry.”
In response to the subject she said so, she immediately made a noise that would be worrying to anyone who heard it.
“I’d rather kill them all… Ah, that’s a joke!”
Scarlett bursts into laughter when she sees Aine who has hardened in an instant.
“Anyway, it seems like it will take quite some time before the work is properly completed. We’ll make sure to take your share, including your share, from our tower. whatever it was.”
she rants
“I’ll let you know how things are going through Veronica. Is everyone okay?”
“yes!”
“thank you.”
We all nodded and thanked each other.
Especially since Aine, Master, and Felice were all in a difficult position to protest directly against the Duke of Epsylt.
If the red mage lord would step up instead, that would be something to be thankful for.
“By the way, Master of the Magic Tower.”
I cautiously called Scarlet Marche.
“yes? What is it, boy?”
“What did you talk about with my father… ”
I blurted out my horse’s tail.
It’s just a guess, but there was definitely something going on between the two.
My intuition was screaming so.
To my question, Scarlet Marche strangely averted her gaze while answering for some reason.
“No, what. I just talked to him for help in the war.”
“What specifically?”
“Nothing. It’s nothing to worry about… If you’re curious, ask your father.”
No, because that’s impossible.
“Hmm… ”
Something is suspicious, but I don’t think it will tell you anything.
I asked several times after that, but Scarlett Marche avoided my question each time.
really, what the hell
Anyway, I gave up on hearing the truth from her.
While happily discussing what to ask of the Duke of Epsylt, we arrived at the academy before we knew it.
Say goodbye one last time.
As Sally opens her arms toward Veronica, Veronica is about to jump in, but then notices us.
After thinking about it for a while, in the end, he hugged Sally tightly and shared a hug.
Following her, he shares a farewell hug with Scarlet Marche.
“What, what are you looking at!”
This time, Veronica dyed her face red and shouted that.
We all just giggled, saying we were nothing.
I’m glad Felice seems to be feeling better.
—
A few days have passed since the negotiations at the Imperial Palace.
Meanwhile, I got a letter from Sally to Veronica.
It is said that an imperial investigation team was formed, and various evidences, including the teaching assistant in question, were taken over.
Considering the current atmosphere, it is said that the charges against Leo Epsilt are likely to be acknowledged.
Its size was incomparable, and I didn’t even know it existed.
Anyway, the faction of Her Majesty the Princess is also attacking the Duke of Epsilt.
Above all else, the emperor’s will to keep his son in check is said to be strong.
The atmosphere of the imperial family grasped from the red horse tower is like this.
Well, the Emperor has not yet corrected it and there is nothing wrong with it.
A child who has not yet been officially designated as a successor has attracted the two dukes to form a faction.
Even if it was meant to keep the princess in check, the opponent of the succession struggle.
The emperor must be anxious, too.
For that reason, work in the Imperial Palace is cruising.
Here at the academy, things are going well.
First of all, no matter what you did, turn off the final exams that are already in front of you.
Not long ago, the princess came to visit me.
“Oh, Chairman. Long time no see.”
“Yes, Louie. Is your body okay?”
“Thank you for your concern, but as you can see, I’m fine. I think I’ve said it before, but… ”
After I return from the practice evaluation.
The chairman, who looked worried, visited me several times.
Chairman, who always asked me if I was okay.
Of course, this time was no exception.
“Huh, is that so? Anyway, Louis, I waited a long time.”
She hands me a heavy sack.
“This… ?”
“I am sorry for being late. Oh god damn… Hmmm. Anyway, I can’t congratulate you publicly, but at least I definitely got the reward I promised.”
“Thank you, Chairman!”
The reward the princess had promised was considerable.
The first thing I did with that money was.
“Come on, kid. receive.”
I held out a box to Aine.
“What is this, Louie?”
“Open it.”
Aine carefully opens the wooden box.
“medicinal herbs… ?”
“Remember when I said I would do something about your sister?”
“no way!”
Aine looks at me with moved eyes.
Hell, she’s been through a lot of heartache because of her up until now.
Even the people who looked at me were depressed.
After I said that I would solve it somehow, I felt more relieved.
That doesn’t mean she wasn’t worried, though.
yes, kid
I’m sorry, but I have to suffer a little more.
“No, not the way I said it. It should wait a little longer. Instead, a little improvement is possible with that herb alone, so I tell my sister to take it every day.”
“Oh, thank you! Thank you so much, Louie!”
Aine was very happy with that alone.
For some reason, my conscience pricked me a little.
In the first place, it was impossible to improve with herbs, and the herbs I gave him were pain relievers.
And because it works for life-sustaining.
Still, as much as I paid a lot of money to buy it, at least it will definitely work for my role.
Anyway, I spent most of the money I got from the bounty.
At least as long as you’re taking that, you won’t die or do anything.
With this, unlike the original story, there is no such thing as Aine’s sister dying, or something like that.
“Hey, are you okay?”
“… yes! I don’t know why you’re asking, but I’m fine!”
Anyway, that’s what happened.
and today.
“Cadet Louis Wallenstein.”
“Yes?”
“The principal is calling. Follow me.”
