197 – Joint Evaluation (1)⚝
On Monday, it was joint evaluation week, and we finally set off for Belaste. It is the oldest academy on the continent and the largest. I was very curious about the alma maters of Sir Ruben, Ivor Ivor, and Enboza Mensch.
“Child, you want to know the school customs of Velaste?”
Roza and I were being taken together in the princess’ carriage. Rita used the transportation provided to the student council, and Tyria used the transportation provided to honor cadets. Kite also wanted to follow us, but he was afraid of causing another scandal so he boarded the carriage with Heden and Oila. Anyway, I’ll meet you when I arrive in six hours, so there’s no problem.
「Oila was busy dating.」
According to the letter written by Kite, there was a misunderstanding between the two and they resolved it well. Heden seems to sincerely dream of getting married, but Oila seems dissatisfied with him for not participating in [Proof of Existence]. Honestly, I think it’s suspicious. Women talk dirty to each other just as much as men, so it was obvious what was being exchanged.
“If you don’t know anything, you make mistakes.”
When I answered, Ain opened the screen and muttered.
“Heoden’s school uniform is embarrassing.”
Rosa trembled. Would it have hurt her to see someone else feel ashamed of the clothes she truly wanted to wear?
“Sister, I think our school uniform is okay.”
“Baby, he takes care of his female even if it means the worst.”
“Princess, what I just said was an insult.”
Maybelle, whose eyes were closed, intervened. She was displeased with Ain, and she ground her teeth and continued.
“I’ve been here to play before, but the guys here should be compared to Mentator and Orgiola rather than Heoden.”
“Why?”
“Po, phone phone…… Sister…… “I’m sorry.”
Roza was pulling my collar, so I asked him to stop for a moment. Originally, it was supposed to be Mabel’s job, but the Bercia Brotherhood appointed me as Di Rosahue’s bodyguard. I am responsible for any accidents that occur to her while she is on the move, so I must be present at all times.
“Baby, I heard you have a knack for taming real animals?”
Ignored Ain’s sarcasm and took Rosa out. A place with lots of bushes could chaf her butt, so she led her to an area with lots of trees. She stepped on tree branches that would prick her bare skin, creating a place for her to urinate.
“Sister, I will protect you from the front.”
Don’t worry, if anything happens, call me at any time and stand at the corner of the street.
“Po, phone phone…… Nu, my sister is really, uh, without you…… “What happened?”
If she had been alone, she would not have been able to even look around Heoden, let alone see Bella Ste. Considering that Irene was extremely jealous of her recent trip and even asked to buy her a souvenir, this is an unprecedented benefit.
─But, it’s really shaky.
If a woman is rude, she hears it almost every night, so she doesn’t get an erection because of this. However, there are differences between Kite, Tyria, and Rosa in the way they urinate depending on their personality. The idea of wrapping it little by little instead of all at once felt dirty and unsightly, and it made my head spin. She is too lewd to be called a saint.
“Po, phone phone…… Sister So, you didn’t bring a handkerchief!”
“Close your eyes.”
He stepped behind her and handed her the handkerchief that her Madame Pompadou had given her. I could feel the heat rising from behind her. Even if I tried not to smell it, I kept smelling it, and if it weren’t for the sacral protector, I would have become arrogant. First, when I leave, I keep calling while wiping my bottom. She answered each time and reassured me.
“Did you have a good trip?”
Ain only said that when he saw us coming back.
“Thank you, you can leave.”
“Sin, sin…… Sorry…… Huh.”
Ain gave instructions to the coachman without replying. Suddenly, I wondered what would have happened to the handkerchief with the royal emblem engraved on it. Since the saint’s clothes don’t have pockets, I can’t imagine that she would have kept them inside her body. If it was Kite’s cookie, it would have been obvious because there was a pocket under the skirt, but I wonder if Rosa pushed it into her cleavage.
─Why do I think like this?
Shaking off her distracting thoughts, she spoke again about Bella Ste and her.
“Yangmul, among the various academies, which one do you think has the most dissatisfaction?”
Bellastay Lee is not there, and even our Heoden seems satisfied, although everyone criticizes him. The only thing that comes to mind is Colonia, who is following her decline. Although it is located close to the capital, it does not have the same reputation as before.
“Colonia?”
“It’s a half-way place that only accepts women.”
It is a place where they get along well, so there is nothing to complain about. I thought about it again. There are only five academies in total in districts 1 to 3 based on the capital. Close to the Royal Palace in the following order:
《Bellaste, Mentator, Colonia, Orgiola, Heoden.》
“Then, Heoden?”
“Oh my, you little bastard.”
Listen carefully, Mentetor is the one with the most twisted feelings. They say they have a huge sense of inferiority because they are included in the 1st district of the capital, like Velaste, and because they were not able to get into the place they wanted by a small margin. Colonia is a fancy place where rich noble ladies go, and Origiola is from District 3, the same as us, so the target of comparison is Heoden.
“The kites who went to Mentator rotted every day, comparing themselves to Velaste.”
Really, she felt like an idiot and didn’t want to talk, so I asked her what it was like to climb.
“Wouldn’t you be relieved to see Heoden’s level?”
I will definitely feel less relative deprivation. During joint evaluations, it is obvious that you will feel a sense of satisfaction whenever you meet fellow Heoden cadets. After listening carefully, I heard that Mentator is located in District 1, so the tuition is enormous. I can understand their dissatisfaction as it is a higher price than Velaste, which receives support from the royal family.
“I guess you’ll feel lucky that you didn’t go to a place that has the biggest dick competition in the world?”
Rosa suddenly twitched her fingers at what Ain said.
“Big, big…” … Competition?”
It might be tempting to stay in the cathedral and never hear any news from outside.
“Ampong, didn’t you know?”
“Hey.”
When she stopped him as if telling her not to speak now, Ain snorted and pointed at me.
“Your master came close to winning.”
“Wow…… Championship!”
“Why are you disturbing me with useless talk?”
When I waved my hand as if telling him to stop, Rosa rolled her eyes. Ain just shrugs her shoulders and says she was confident, saying she was telling the truth. As Rosa continued to look up at me, he avoided eye contact and answered.
“I came in 4th place out of 100 people.”
“Ugh…… Yes, fourth time…… “Well, that can’t be possible?”
She was confused to herself, so when I met her gaze, she turned her head. I told myself that it wasn’t the case, but I wondered if something had happened during the co-sleeping treatment. It seemed like Ain couldn’t hear right now, so he didn’t bother to ask out loud.
“Yangmul, Mentator guys, be careful.”
“I have no intention of becoming friends?”
“It’s rather comfortable because the Velaste guys don’t have anything to do with it.”
Because it is the highest level, there is nothing to prove and the only things to compare it to are your own peers and seniors. If you’re going to network, talk to that person and if possible, don’t mix things up with Orgiola.
“Why?”
“Because I’m going to ignore it outright.”
To them, Heoden is nothing more or less than a new academy built with money. In other words, if you meet them, you will only be treated with a lot of contempt, so it is better not to interact with them. I haven’t met Ain, but it’s probably like that, so my advice is to take care of it yourself.
We had more conversations like that after that. Then, Rosa began to doze off leaning on my shoulder, and Ain also closed her eyes, telling me to talk to Maybelle, saying it was too bothersome to talk. Neither she nor I had anything to say, so she remained silent.
Rumbling──
The carriage shook as if it had stepped on a water hole. When her eyes met and she smiled awkwardly, Maybelle spoke first.
“Did you know that there is a beast in Velaste?”
It was an interesting story, so my eyes sparkled as I heard it for the first time. Then he tells me the difference between a human being and a beast human being.
“Are you saying that Ajin is a name from the magic world and a beastman is a name from religion?”
To my question, the meaning of the Order of Porzio is that. Then Rosa closed her eyes and muttered.
“Poetry, failed…… Blood, creatures…… !”
I thought he was talking in his sleep, but it was something he said while sober.
“That is the Bersian Church’s perspective on prisoners.”
“Po, phone phone…… It says that in the Bible too…… “Noona, you’re not lying.”
When Ain sleeps, his tongue becomes longer than usual. As she gets older, she blinks and says she will obey and leans her head on my shoulder. Whenever she is away from church officials, Rosa acts more like a lay nun than a saint. That’s a good thing for me.
“What is the difference between a beast and an animal?”
“The question is how close it is to a human being. Even though the appearance is similar, it is completely different in terms of species.”
The external appearance of beasts is so diverse that it is impossible to classify them based on that. Therefore, all sub-races that are not born through s*xual intercourse with animals are defined as beastmen, and only those that are close to humans are entrusted to Belaste.
“In other words, everything managed in Velaste should be considered as demi-humans.”
I became more interested in them because they were a group of beasts that looked similar to humans.
“What kind?”
“They are all from the deer family. Although it is not recognized in the religious world, the royal family highly values the possibility of being a prisoner.”
They cannot adapt to human society, and only very advanced individuals can communicate and learn with difficulty, but their unique abilities are of great help in battle. When asked specifically, there are several beastmen who can communicate with animals and have made great achievements in information warfare.
“Not everyone was recorded in history.”
Ain opened his eyes.
From noble mtl dot com
“I didn’t know you were all listening.”
“Ampong, if you wake up, your head will hurt, so speak quietly.”
They are scolded for saying that there are no bastards as tight-knit as the Bercia Brotherhood, but when they see Rosa flinching, they are hearing everything. Since the princess is silent because she is scared, I will have to lead the conversation well.
“Why does Velaste take care of the prisoners?”
“Diversity.”
I tilted my head because the explanation wasn’t enough, and Ain opened the carriage’s window wide. The dazzling sunlight poured in and even Rosa opened her eyes. In the distance, the main gate of Belaste was visible and huge stone pillars were also visible.
“Read what’s written there.”
When I looked at the direction Ain was pointing to, I saw an engraved text that I couldn’t understand at once.
「Those who wish for N·T·R will not be able to set foot here!」
“What initials do they look like?”
Then, when they see that I don’t even know the meaning of NTR, they laugh at me and say I’m really ignorant. They are abbreviations for Nepotism, Tribalism, and Racism, respectively. They are, in that order, nepotism, nepotism, and racism.
“Bellaste became a prestigious school by strictly prohibiting that.”
The best academy is the most equal and fairest, so it is natural that it cannot win.
