126 – Reminiscence
“Who do you like best among the representatives?”
All eyes turned to Becky.
“….”
Becky, who just a moment ago had messily rubbed his thighs or twisted his hair, is now looking at Irene without blinking.
“What, you look speechless?”
Irene smiled leisurely and looked away from her.
She intends to conduct coverage only in relation to the private daily life of the representatives today. The reason, of course, is to extract stimulating ‘fun’.
“I should ask the rest of the representatives first. Who do you think Miss Becky will point to?”
Then Louis answered without the slightest hesitation.
“Flan. The two always stick together. No, should I say that Becky is chasing after me?”
“You’re chasing me? Uhm, I wonder why?”
Irene added as if she was interested. Becky just stuttered, his face flushed.
“Uh, uh, no, um….”
As Becky was at a loss, the bureaucrats’ faces looked less satisfied. A cute girl who is restless will surely respond well.
Becky glanced sideways at Flan.
After taking turns looking at Irene and him a few times, she finally opened her mouth with difficulty.
“Flan is the best….”
Irene smirked.
“You say you like Mr. Plan the best?”
“Yes.”
“Really?”
“….”
Pretending not to know Irene, Becky’s voice grew smaller each time she slyly asked back. In the end, she barely nods her head at the end with a face that looks like it will explode if touched.
“Yes. What is good as a representative? It can be.”
“Yes?”
“Ah! Did you mean that it was good as a member of the opposite s*x?”
“No, no! No…. Is it weird to say no? Nope, not anyway. No….”
The bureaucrats around him burst into laughter with delighted faces as they watched Becky repeat his gibberish. Thanks to that, the atmosphere at the scene was a little relaxed.
“Okay, let’s start the full-scale interview.”
Irene touched her palms with her mate, making a noise.
“How did she feel when she landed in the danger zone?”
“I wasn’t too worried. Plan did it.”
The voice that answered this was Louis’s.
“You fell into a dangerous area and you weren’t worried? Hey, isn’t that what you’re saying now?”
Irene’s eyes turned to Trixie.
“How does it sound to Miss Trixie? Is Mr. Lewis telling the truth?”
“It is true.”
Trixie answered without hesitation.
“It’s started again. I just thought that much. If you go out with Plan, things like this are normal.”
“As she went through her crisis, I felt a strange feeling sprout. I was expecting something like that.”
“I already have someone I like.”
Trixie’s short answer.
Irene and other bureaucrats were full of interest. It was the expression of a cat that had found a fish.
“The representative of the Faculty of Magic, and at the same time the eldest daughter of the Fritz family, is a favorite…. Can you tell me a little bit? Just a little bit.”
“The person I like.”
Trixy’s face turned to Flan. The blue girl calmly continued her words.
“Only Plan knows.”
“Only Plan knows…” ?”
In an instant, Irene had a hunch that this interview would be a hit. Turning her head, another bureaucrat floated a letter in the air with blue mana.
It says ‘Never miss this material’. Irene quietly nodded her head.
“Miss Becky said she likes flan students the most, and Ms. Trixie said that only flan students know who she likes…. Is this interesting?”
Irene pretends not to know, but she skillfully carries on her words.
“The starting point that created changes in the Faculty of Magic. I’ll have to ask the person in charge, Plan, directly.”
The topic naturally turned to flan.
“How is it? What is Mr. Plan thinking?”
“I plan to build a mage tower.”
“….”
A moment of silence fell in the garden.
Irene’s eyebrows twitched once at Plan’s answer. The bureaucrats beside her are also slightly frozen.
Irene slowly calmed down the situation.
“Oh, yes. Eh, the magic tower…. Let’s talk about something else first. A flan student might like….”
Beads of sweat formed on her forehead at some point. I was desperate to change the topic of conversation.
“Stop talking nonsense.”
But Plan wouldn’t allow it.
In the first place, since the coverage was a stage to spread the facts about the Mage Tower, I had no intention of giving the lead role.
“Currently, I have no other thoughts than to build a mage tower.”
“….”
Irene opened her mouth blankly.
This is a huge accident. Each of her bureaucrats who met her eyes had expressions similar to hers.
Bite her nails, squeeze her hair, grab her by the nape of her neck…. In the silent turmoil, Irene managed to display her professional spirit.
This situation can be solved naturally somehow.
“The magic tower. They’re building a new mage tower…. What made you decide to build it?”
“Because the wizards in this world are lousy.”
Took.
The script Irene was holding fell to the floor.
She hurriedly turned around behind her and crossed her hands in the shape of a scissor. This is something that should never be exported… !
As if the bureaucrats felt the same way, they all hurriedly tried to cut off the power to the crystal ball.
However.
“The power to the crystal ball will not be cut off!”
“It’s completely stuck!”
Sujeong-gu didn’t listen.
And soon, the officials were able to find out the cause without difficulty. Blue magic power was interfering with it like sparks near the crystal ball.
“Interference… ?”
“Who is it!”
When I chased after the magic, there was a flan.
After making sure that the power to the crystal ball could not be cut off, Plan spoke calmly once again.
“The magic tower will definitely be built. And at that time, the level of this floor will be a little higher.”
“aaah! aaagh!”
Irene went all the way to her screams, trying to drown out Plan’s words somehow. She hurriedly whispered as she put her hands together as if begging.
“Are you crazy? Even the princess is watching this!”
“It will become a mage tower that even the princess will like. We promise that much right here.”
“aaagh!”
Irene screamed again. This time she almost screamed.
“Hup!”
But flan squeezed her lips in a trance. At the same time, one of the officials shouted.
“How the hell are you going to build a mage tower! The Faculty of Magic doesn’t have enough money for that, right?”
“I have no intention of begging because of that. Fundamentally, investment should be free.”
Flan took the official’s words coldly.
“In the future, the concept of magic will be completely reversed. Everyone, prepare your heart.”
Soon after, Irene became a face that would make her cry if touched.
◈
The inner chamber of the second princess, Aurora.
Even at the beginning of the interview, the atmosphere here was no different from thin ice. Looking at the bored face of the princess, the eunuch grew old in real time.
When you think about it, it was natural.
Ordinary people are interested in the affair between her representatives, but the princess is not interested at all.
But what about now?
The two eunuchs had a very quiet conversation with smiles on their faces.
“I thought what if the princess wasn’t satisfied, but fortunately it’s not that much.”
“I didn’t know you would like flan that much. Officials still seem to think it was an accident.”
It is no exaggeration to say that the group coverage was arranged by the second princess.
Therefore, within the imperial family, the key is to satisfy Aurora’s interest, and she did it very well.
The eunuch rubbed his chin and said.
“There are a lot of things that are bluffing without ability, but they really do something that can get a lot of attention and anticipation at the same time. So, I keep thinking about it.”
“That makes sense. The daily story that I expected was completely ruined, but it did a great job in an unexpected place.”
“I’m glad Plan joined. What would have happened if we had taken only three people to cover the story as drafted?”
“… Her neck must have been blown off.”
The eyes of the two eunuchs soon turned to Aurora. She held her notebook directly open with both her hands, her eyes fixed only on Flan’s face.
Finally she opened her mouth.
“Hey.”
“Yes. Princess.”
The escort knights and eunuchs straightened their postures and did not even breathe. Aurora continues her speech slowly.
“Interesting. Very interesting.”
Of course, her crescent-shaped pupils were still not separated from her papers at all.
“This bastard doesn’t have enough money to build a mage tower. Is it not only for this guy? There’s no such thing as that in the Faculty of Magic.”
Aurora licked her lower lip slowly.
“Still, I was sure that the mage tower would be built. He even went so far as to say that I would love it.”
Neither the eunuchs nor the knights reacted.
To be precise, I couldn’t react. It was the first time she had ever seen Aurora show her interest in something of her own.
If you stay still, you will go even halfway. That would have been an expression for the current situation.
“Good.”
Aurora blinked her eyes three times.
Half moon, new moon, old moon.
Every time it blinks, the shape of the pupil changes countless times.
“Summon the treasurer immediately.”

From noble mtl dot com
The knight of the embers, Scarlett, walked unsteadily.
There was a risk of falling several times, and she actually collapsed twice, but she eventually reached her destination.
The Judith family’s outbuilding. ‘Recall’.
While staring blankly at the building containing unknown truths, Scarlett suddenly grabbed her chest.
“Woo-wook….”
I suddenly had a strong feeling of vomiting.
She was a loser. She was so completely defeated that she couldn’t even utter an excuse. And the truth she would face from now on scared her.
Scarlett’s body was hit countless times by a pang of pain that seemed to squeeze her entire body. It is painful even though the ‘remnant fire’ has completed the recovery of the body. It was really strange.
“Uh-wook—.”
Her own vomit was dirty, so she vomited it up again. She thought, drenched in sweat and trembling in her pain.
You have to enter.
I still have to go inside.
Scarlett pulled her key from her bosom with her trembling hand. It was the object she received from the head of household to open the entrance to this annex.
How is the inside of the outbuilding structured and how can the truth be confirmed? Even Scarlett herself doesn’t know that.
However, this was the only way.
She has no choice but to enter in order to understand what she has been through. Even if she gets caught up in an anomaly and drifts away.
“Ugh….”
Sighing heavily, Scarlett inserted the key into the entrance to the outbuilding. Then she began to ripple and flow like a liquid all over the building.
Shoot ah!
The wave swallowed Scarlett whole.
what an easy fish
