Count Wallenstein
As I lay in bed thinking about this and that, I must have fallen asleep.
When I woke up, it was already evening.
growl
Maybe it’s because I didn’t eat properly and fell asleep.
I grabbed my hungry stomach and headed to the academy’s student cafeteria.
Today is Sunday.
Most of the tasks usually given to the party have to be taken care of on the weekend.
Of course, it was because it shouldn’t affect the classes at the academy on weekdays.
Although I didn’t like wasting time on a golden holiday.
Since the performance of the task was immediately converted into points and entered into the evaluation, there were few cadets who neglected this.
Of course, in the case of assignments that cannot be completed on the weekend, special absences are recognized.
The restaurant was crowded as usual on weekdays.
This is because most of the people who left for homework on Sunday evening return.
By the way, I don’t like crowds.
It’s not that I’m not sociable or anything like that.

Just.
“Look over there, it’s Louis Wallenstein.”
“You are from a traitorous family.”
“Why are you shamelessly attending the academy? ”
It was because it was hard to resist wanting to punch them in their faces every time I heard such gossiping voices.
I was used to just looking at me with unkind eyes.
To gossip like that while everyone else is listening, where on earth did they sell their manners?
Trying to ignore them, I started eating.
Then, I thought about my situation.
Louis Wallenstein.
Heir to the House of Wallenstein.
And, according to the game story, the villain of the main character’s party.
I remembered the setting for Count Wallenstein.
The Wallenstein family was originally a prestigious family with a long history of the Lucia Empire.
It could be said that it was only a count’s family.
Until a few decades ago, Wallenstein was a duke.
The grandfather of Louis whom I possessed, that is, the Duke of Wallenstein, who was the head of the previous generation.
It is said that he rebelled against the Empire.
I don’t know why.
Because it wasn’t in the game.
Well, you don’t really need to know.
It’s that nobleman, I’ve been eating dukes for a long time, so I guess the emperor also wanted to try it.
Because of that, I am now living in the academy that I despise.
By the way, Louie’s father.
The Duke of Wallenstein, who is now my father, looked at me and said it was all false.
I don’t know when it will be, but when my power is strong enough to stand up to the imperial family, I’ll find out about it.
Anyway, the principle is that the family of the original traitor should be destroyed.
The problem, as I said before, is that the Duke of Wallenstein is a prestigious family with a long history.
It’s not just a long history.
He was one of the three dukes who helped the first emperor of the empire to establish the Lucia Empire.
Therefore, only the duke of the time was executed, and most of the family’s lands and property were confiscated.
In addition, at the cost of demoting a duke to a count, our family was able to avoid extinction.
This is the setting for our family.
Next, I remembered the setting for the Louis Wallenstein I possessed.
In the game, Louie was the villain himself.
First of all, his personality is terrible.
He despises those who are inferior to him and harasses the common people.
There, he suffered from a feeling of inferiority towards the main character, Leo Epsilt.
crest too.
wealth too.
skill too.
Even the fact that Leo Epsilt is a hero candidate.
In every way he fell behind Leo Epsilt.
At least in terms of appearance, Louis was also a Leo-class handsome boy.
It is corrupted by Magi, and even its appearance becomes ugly in the second half.
Anyway, Louis couldn’t defeat Leo no matter what he did, so he finally got his hands on Magi.
One of the stories was that the main character and party members stopped Louis, who had become so corrupt and ugly.
“ha… ”
I sighed.
Why do you have to be possessed by a character like this…
While I was immersed in my thoughts and savoring food.
Suddenly a shadow fell over me.
I didn’t want to pay any attention to it, but the person in front of me didn’t want to disappear.
What is it, sibi?
With that in mind, let’s raise our heads.
The one in front of me was the princess I saw in the student council room earlier in the daytime.
“Can I sit in the front?”
she says
I looked around.
Uh, am I the only one here?
There was no one sitting next to me to eat in the first place, so it was natural.
To me with a puzzled expression, she says again.
“I told you right.”
“Yeah, what are you sitting down… ”
I nodded.
Wherever she sits in the first place, I don’t care.
The princess put the food she was holding on the table.
I turned my gaze away from her and started eating again.
Well, the taste is incomparable to my high school lunches.
No, it is rude to even dare to compare.
Still, sometimes I miss kimchi or rice…
“Can we talk for a moment?”
A voice is heard from the front.
Looking at it now, the princess was staring at me without touching the food.
I look around again but…
“I told you right, this time too.”
What is it?
Until now, there had been no contact between the princess and me.
Oh, could it be because of that?
Did you just make a joke like that?
Slightly nervous, I swallowed.
“Is it important?”
After a moment of silence, the princess shook her head.
“Eating and chatting lightly… ”
Putting aside the fact that it was a very inappropriate word for a princess.
I got up.
“I’m sorry, Chairman. You have finished eating.”
“Uh, huh?”
I left without hesitation.
“Huh?”
It seems that the princess’s voice can be heard from behind.
let’s ignore
—
Something very interesting happened today.
Even, the protagonist is a celebrity of the Academy.
It was Louis Wallenstein.
Of course, it was famous for the bad.
In fact, the princess herself did not pay much attention to such rumors.
She was the type to check and judge everything with her own eyes.
A few hours after the man submitted the video recording artifact and two sheets of paper to the student council room.
The other six who were at the same party returned to the academy.
Their faces were no less famous than Louis.
In fact, as a princess, I wondered what the professors were thinking when they put them in the same party.
Anyway, they too submitted their necklaces and a piece of paper.
While they each took off their necklaces.
The white-haired thief in the party, was your name Aine?
She muttered a small ‘Oh, that’s right,’ and the necklace stopped working.
Sometimes there were such people.
Anyone who forgets to turn it off and submits the artifact while still recording.
Well, the princess thought it was nothing special.
Rather, she focused on the papers they submitted.
Even without seeing it, I expected the contents.
After all, it was a document requesting the expulsion of Louis Wallenstein.
As if they were waiting for their words, they stood in front of them.
The princess beckoned them to go.
“Ah, I see.”
They answered in a slightly embarrassed voice and left the student council room.
The princess picked up the necklaces lying on her desk.
“Where are you going, Chairman?”
someone asks her
“Yes. I have something to look at. Oh, let someone clean that up.”
She said, pointing to the papers they had just handed in that were spread across the desk.
“Yes? Yes, I understand.”
Leaving behind someone who answered in a questionable voice, the princess headed to the office provided for the student council president.
It is the Academy’s professors’ job to check the contents of the necklace and evaluate the assignment.
However, the chairman was able to use his power to confirm it in advance.
However, while checking the seven necklaces, the princess looks puzzled.
It’s the necklace that gray-haired thief was holding earlier.
The problem was that there was one more necklace with a longer recorded video than the other necklaces.
And there was blood on the necklace.
It was a necklace that Louis Wallenstein submitted earlier.
The princess admired Louis’s and Aine’s one after the other.
After such a long time, the princess utters a word.
“It’s fun.”
Leaving behind the students who were usually attached to him.
Alone, she headed to the infirmary first.
His body, which he had seen earlier, was full of scars.
However, Louis Wallenstein has already disappeared.
Next, she headed to the dormitory.
That’s how we headed towards the academy’s men’s dormitory.
She found Louis Wallenstein on his way to the cafeteria.
Following him into the restaurant, the princess also ordered food in moderation.
He is sitting alone and eating.
No matter how bad your reputation is in the academy, you’ll probably have one or two friends to eat with.
After all, he, like himself, likes to eat alone.
The princess took the food and sat in front of him.
When she asked if the story was okay, it was Louis who asked back if it was an important story.
Also, it was unique.
Other people were frantic to talk with him one more time.
For a moment, the princess pondered whether the story she was about to tell was important.
Well, it was a moderately important story.
The princess immediately remembered what the female cadets in the student council had said.
The habit of going straight to the main point when talking with others or eating only real food without any chatter when eating is to be corrected.
So, she mustered up the courage to speak.
“Eating and chatting lightly… ”
“I’m sorry, Chairman. You have finished your meal.”
… uh?
Louie is gone.
Really, gone.
really?
