The word crazy has different meanings depending on its usage.

compliment. Admiration. Dejected. anger. Insults, etc.

The word “crazy” is a word that does not cause much discomfort no matter how it is used, but its original meaning is to have a mental disorder.

And the person who is most appropriate for this original word, crazy, is the first queen, Kabaddi Soladin.

The uprightness of being willing to sacrifice one’s life for one’s country.

A belief that leaves no doubt that one’s actions are right.

Plus, the ability to execute what you think.

All of this put together, she was the real of the real who did not give up her beliefs even until the moment of her death.

The regret you feel at the moment you lose your breath is not regret for the evil deeds you committed, but regret for not being able to find a better way when there was one.

At the same time, a person dies smiling at the thought that someone better than him will lead the country.

Even if a stupid fox or a perverted apostle is crazy, it is understandable because they are crazy in a humane way.

I couldn’t sympathize with this medieval Trump because his way of thinking was completely different.

Some people in the community said it was good because he was a villain with conviction, but I didn’t think so.

How can you like someone who seems to have blood flowing through their body?

Regardless of these likes or dislikes, everyone agreed that the woman named Kabaddi Soladin was someone who would do anything to make Solladin great, and she was given the nickname Medieval Trump. Queen Make Soladin Great Again.

I knew that since Arthur was my friend and I was a nobleman of Soladdin, I would have to meet this crazy bitch someday, but now it’s too soon!

I still don’t have enough strength to deal with that crazy bitch!

Ugh.

What will the Mesgaki skill say when it meets that medieval Trump?

Considering my performance so far, I think the expression “crazy” would definitely be used.

If you pour out such criticism on the first queen.

…No, just a moment.

Wouldn’t it be okay if she turned around completely?

If you’re a crazy person who only cares about Solladin, regardless of his own honor or power, I don’t think you’d think it a big deal if he heard an insult, right?

Of course, if it’s someone who wasn’t the target of the insult, I’ll scold them, but what if it’s someone who I think will be of great help to Soladdin in the future?

okay. Although she’s a crazy bitch that I don’t want to deal with, it’s better to turn away completely than to turn around clumsily.

Like Queen 2, a favor may or may not be repaid, but an enemy is always called a bastard by destroying a person…

‘Siner Soladin.’

what?

Why is this old monster’s name written right below the first queen’s name?

Am I hallucinating because I just remembered the old monster’s name?

If so, look again after washing your face.

‘Siner Soladin.’

Gyaaaagh?!

What!

Why does this person exist again?

“…Caria. If my eyes are not wrong, I can see the names of the two queens at the top.”

“That’s right. Both expressed their intention to participate.”

“Why?”

okay! Well said Benedick!

Why does this person who has no affection for his son come to the end-of-semester party?!

In all the time I’ve been playing the game Soul Academy, I’ve never seen this person set foot in the academy!

“Queen 1 participated.”

Caria remained calm even when looking at me and Benedick.

“I don’t know the details, but it’s definitely because of that. Queen 2: Queen 1 meeting that person is not a big deal, but I actually care a lot.”

As I listened to Karia’s story that nothing had changed from before to now, I was reminded that this person had once acted as a shadow of the kingdom.

Caria was the person who headed the intelligence department when the two had just become queens. You probably know about Queen 1 and Queen 2 well.

Perhaps Caria knows more about most of the people in the palace than I do.

Because I know next to nothing about people who had a small role in the game.

“Anyway, with these two people expressing their participation, this end-of-semester party was largely derailed from its original purpose. The nobles of both powers expressed their participation in a reduced number to show their respective strength.”

As I listened to Karia’s story and read the list of participants, I felt dizzy.

I knew that Duke Patran and Duke Kurten would participate. Because their children are here.

But why are the heads of other ducal families coming here too?!

Everyone except the Duke of Burrow, who is recuperating, is in attendance!

And why are there so many big names down there?

There are so many nobles that have appeared in the Soul Academy story at least once!

I was delighted by the appearance of many names I had seen frequently while playing the game, but at the same time I was devastated that I had to give speeches in front of them and enjoy the party with these people.

…If it’s just for the Partran festival, it’s worth it.

At that time, no one was interested in me except a few special people and my friends.

But not now! There’s no way the second queen who was trying to lure me in wouldn’t talk to me!

Then, the nobles from the second queen’s side will naturally approach.

Then, the people on Queen 1’s side will also follow suit.

In that way, the area around me will become a hot place and a graveyard of reputation where all kinds of sales take place.

And next to it, Benedick’s stomach, which had a hole in it, would have to be buried.

Benedick’s face, which had been smiling just a moment ago, probably felt the same way, but the more he turned the pages, the more serious he became.

“…Caria. Could you possibly knock me out? Use him as an excuse so that Lucy and I can escape naturally.”

“What nonsense? Is there a poison that works for you? If that’s the case, I’d rather ask my employer.”

“That’s not possible! You can’t do that to our Lucy!”

“Then what should I do?”

“Damn it! Now that things are like this, I have to destroy the building where the party will be held!”

“Hey. Just calm down first.”

“Just break it by half!…”

“Employer. Make this idiot shut up. I guess you can’t even hear me.”

“Papa?♡ Could you please close your mouth?♡ Every time you talk, it smells musty♡ To be honest, I really hate it♡”

“Smell…do you smell it? Did you do that? I’m sorry…”

Even though her shoulders were slumped, she still ignored the huge Benedick and turned her gaze towards Caria, and she let out a sigh.

“Back to the main topic. For your employer, attending that party itself is a disaster. So, hide in a room somewhere until the opening speech, and then disappear with Benedick after the opening speech. Anyway, there’s no one in the kingdom who can say anything to this big guy, so it won’t be a problem. I just wanted to have a good time with my daughter, so you’ll understand.”

I wondered if it would be okay for the two queens and their forces to just leave like that, but since it was Caria’s suggestion, there wouldn’t be any problem.

Then I just need to think about how to get through the speech with ease.

smart. As I turned my head following the sound of a knock on the door, I heard Alsatin’s voice.

“Young-ae. The apostle of the Arts Church has arrived.”

It came later than expected. I thought that pervert would come early in the morning and distort my expression with all kinds of bullshit.

“You can go first. Employer. I have something to talk about with this big guy, so I’ll send it there later.”

Before I could even speak, Caria answered the question I was trying to ask.

Umm. I can never get used to the feeling of having these thoughts read.

Sometimes, when I come in with a whimper, I get a secretly eerie feeling.

I shrugged my shoulders and was about to get up, but the sight of Benedick looking sullen next to me caught my mind.

“Papa♡”

Originally, I was going to touch his shoulder, but I couldn’t reach it even when I stretched out my arm, so I ended up stabbing him in the back.

Then Benedick turns his head.

Hi go. This human. Look how you keep your mouth shut.

Are you paying attention to what I just said about smelling?

“Puuuu♡ Are you upset?♡ What is it that made you so sullen?♡”

“That. That’s it.”

“Hmm♡ I can’t believe you got away with it just because I made a joke♡ I’m not a big deal about this timid dad~♡”

“…Was it a joke? Really?!”

I looked at Benedick, who had regained his color with a single word, with a subtle smile, and then silently went out the door and only stuck out my face.

“B~wheat♡”

After saying the last words, he closed the door.

By all means, that perverted apostle should show off his perverted nature without hesitation.

Only then will you be able to get through the speech with ease.

“…My daughter is so cute. Best.”

Caria, looking at Benedick trembling with his hand covering his mouth, did not hide his pitiful feelings at all.

How did the humans who once reigned in fear when roaming the battlefield end up like this?

If he were Benedick now, he wouldn’t feel awkward next to Mira.

This guy, who used to be blunt, was the polar opposite of Mira, who showed her emotions directly.

Mira must have put in a lot of effort while I was away.

…But Mira. Maybe you tried too hard?

To turn someone who was called the Fang of the Kingdom into something like this.

If you were still alive, I would like to ask you how.

Thinking of Benedick’s wife, who died while she was possessed by an evil spirit, Caria sighed and closed her eyes.

“Benedict.”

A cold voice flows from her mouth.

It was not the playful voice he usually used when dealing with Lucy or his students, but the voice of someone who scared many people as a shadow of the past kingdom.

Facing it, Benedick took a long breath, shook off the fuss from earlier, and straightened his posture.

“Say.”

“Queen 1, never let your daughter meet that crazy bitch.”

Caria, who led the intelligence department as the shadow of the kingdom in the past, knew the first queen well.

It was she who collected information for selection before she was chosen as queen, and she was the one who worked under the first queen before she evaporated from the palace itself. If you don’t know, you can’t know.

“Considering that crazy bitch’s tendencies, I’m sure she’ll quite like Lucy, who has a promising future.”

“Then isn’t that okay?”

“Of course it’s okay for now. However, later on, when that ability is considered a hindrance, the story is different. Because that crazy bitch is willing to get out of the way.”

“What is the basis?”

“I almost got cleaned up.”

“…What?”

“Didn’t I tell you? About the reason why I disappeared from the Ministry of Intelligence?”

“Okay.”

“Then I’ll explain it to you now. There was no way for me at that time. If I hadn’t done that, it would have been buried without a word.”

Benedick’s eyes turn even more grim as Caria tells the story calmly.

“That bitch is too dangerous to get close to.”

The Dean’s Office at Soul Academy.

The dean had been smiling as the Academy Dungeon had recently received rave reviews, but now what was written on his face was cold sweat and a forced, awkward smile.

“…Stir. So you’re saying you want to experience a dungeon, right?”

“Yes. dean. Don’t worry about the fuss. As you can see, I came disguised with my son just in case something happened.”

Even the dean with the most power at Soul Academy had no choice but to be negative in front of the first queen of the kingdom who was smiling.
