Chapter Index

    “You think of that kid as a talented person to join the unit, right?”

    “Did you notice?”

    “There was no way I wouldn’t have known. I knew it as soon as I saw it. “Because he seemed so talented.”

    If Yul is not a genius, who else can be called a genius?

    The elixir I brought this time wasn’t something I made a fuss about.

    If you put it up for auction, it will sell for a huge price.

    Of course, that won’t happen.

    “You may have felt it too, but you don’t yet realize how ridiculously genius you are. Thanks to you, I am supporting and raising it.”

    “I think you have a lot of luck. And where did I come to know such a talented and beautiful child? How amazing.”

    I didn’t find out, I summoned him.

    “There are a lot of talented kids at the academy. Among them, I meddled a little with those whose talents were not being recognized. “Isn’t it good for you if a good successor joins the unit?”

    “I think I will feel confident because he is a talented kid. ah! Then, will you sell the equipment to that kid too? “I will have to suffer for a long time because of Ganghwa.”

    “I made a round of 12 for Yul and lent it to him as a sponsor.”

    Considering the money Yul will earn in the future if his research succeeds, the money spent on making the 12 lectures will not be a waste.

    “Sponsoring the round of 12?”

    “uh. Because he deserves it.”

    “Because you’re an alchemist, you’re a non-combatant, right?”

    “No, he’s versatile. “He is very talented both as an alchemist and in combat.”

    Think about the performance Yul showed on the front line.

    He demonstrated the ability to freeze a large monster in an instant.

    “Besides, I’m asking Sasha to exercise. “Once you join the unit, you will be of great help.”

    “Then you are really a junior. “I need to do a good job.”

    “He’s a good kid, so it’s good if he gets along well.”

    However, since there was not much time left for them to get along well, it was time to think about how to connect Yul and Princess Mona.

    ‘Princess Mona is a more formidable person than I thought… .’

    I was worried about whether it would be okay to give Yul to Princess Mona.

    Of course, it is certain that Princess Mona’s sharp personality will suit Yul well.

    Moreover, once he caught her eye and began to receive her favor, it was as if wings were attached to the genius alchemist Yul’s back.

    This means that Yul will receive support that is on a different level from the support I receive.

    “But I heard that you always bring me a packed lunch. “How did that happen?”

    “Did you even say that?”

    “yes. “He asked me if I always took care of my meals like this.”

    Well, even in my opinion, I was obsessed with feeding him to the point where it was excessive.

    You might be curious.

    If I were the type of person who is always that obsessed with food, I would do that, and if I found out that I was given special treatment… .

    ‘Are you trying to feel uncomfortable?’

    I was curious how Fran responded.

    “So what did you say?”

    “I said he takes care of me often. They always prepare delicious food when we come here. “It’s not enough to carry a packed lunch.”

    “If she was someone who took care of herself like you guys, I wouldn’t have cared about that. But once he focuses on his research, he’s the type of person who won’t eat anything until he collapses. So I had no choice but to pay attention. “It’s obvious that I’ll starve to death while researching, so I can’t just leave it like that.”

    I looked at him intently, wondering if he was jealous, but Fran sensed the meaning of my gaze and spoke.

    “I’m not jealous.”

    “No?”

    “Yes, I was just interested because they said it was a lunch box. “There’s no way the person who kept rejecting me because I’m a minor would once again reach out to Yul, who’s younger than me.”

    I was being careful because I felt sorry for causing him trouble, but I was glad that he said no.

    It looks like you definitely trust me in that regard.

    “Did you really just want to eat the lunch box I packed?”

    “Yes, your cooking is always good.”

    It wasn’t difficult as I just had to increase the quantity when making Yul’s lunch box.

    “Do you take care of me too?”

    “I don’t want to keep wishing for it, I just want to try it at least once.”

    “Of course.”

    It wasn’t difficult.

    Even though it’s a lunch box, it’s not that big of a deal.

    When Fran offered to pack a lunch for me, he smiled brightly.

    “Junior Yul, I will take good care of you from now on.”

    “I didn’t introduce you to you out of concern, but I hope you get along well.”

    “It will happen.”

    I don’t know how long Fran will be able to attend the academy, but it wouldn’t be a bad thing if Yul’s loneliness could be alleviated even a little.

    * * *

    “I think the value of the name Princess Mona is great.”

    The first thing Erintina said when she came to see me was praise for Princess Mona.

    “What happened?”

    “I thought you looked very good to Princess Mona?”

    “I? “Not at all.”

    It never looked good.

    Rather, I only remember coming with a lot of provocation.

    In a caste-based society, if you behave that arrogantly towards the royal family, it is normal to be treated like a crazy person.

    “You’re pretending it’s not happening again. “You must have been seducing me knowingly or unknowingly.”

    “I said no.”

    It happened just a few days ago, so there’s no way I’m remembering it wrong, but Erintina says that’s not possible and tells me to think about it carefully.

    It seemed like I had benefited from Princess Mona a lot without my knowledge.

    “What did you benefit from so much in such a short time?”

    “First of all, the best thing is that the people who complained about me can’t even say anything?”

    “Were there guys like that?”

    Since she is such a beauty, it is inevitable that Paris will be attracted to her.

    “Even though they couldn’t do anything to us, they banded together and bothered me constantly. “It was really tiring to mess around because I couldn’t help the other person.”

    “But you’re saying it’s not like that anymore?”

    “huh. “I think Princess Mona sent out an official letter telling us not to touch our top.”

    After handing over the music box to Princess Mona, there was no significant news.

    So I thought she was investigating the music box, but it seems that Princess Mona was moving faster than I thought.

    “I’m sure one thing will be done.”

    The reason they got the job done so quickly is probably because they think the value of the music box is that great.

    It was something I couldn’t help but like in the first place.

    Even in my opinion, it was a bribe aimed at Princess Mona’s tastes.

    It makes me happy to hear that the music box presented to Princess Mona is well worth its price.

    “Princess Mona has quite a bit of trust in that regard. “Because he is a rare person who takes responsibility for his actions.”

    “If it were other royal family members, they would just swallow what I gave them and not even think about taking responsibility.”

    Assuming I joined hands with the third prince, he would have received the money I gave him and enjoyed everything he could, but would have done nothing for me.

    On the other hand, Princess Mona was a person who kept her promises.

    “And this is not the end. “He also provided me with a good opportunity.”

    “season?”

    “Yes, actually, that’s why I came today.”

    “I’m so excited.”

    Looking at Erintina’s excited expression, I decided to look forward to what kind of gift Princess Mona would have given to the top.

    “What kind of gift was it?”

    “It’s an export. Export!”

    “Export?”

    “huh! They asked if we would like to export our top products to ethnic minorities. “If you can get there, it’s like a complete bonanza.”

    40% of the land on which humanity can live.

    Even though only the empire remained in the country, not all races disappeared.

    There were many ethnic minorities like Rebecca, who was from a desert kingdom, who had lost their hometowns and were living in the empire.

    And among them, there were cases where they stubbornly created their own regions and lived without being absorbed into the empire.

    Even though he became a citizen of the empire, his identity would not be shaken.

    Fortunately, the emperor did not go out of his way to persecute those ethnic minorities, but rather readily gave them land and encouraged them to live well.

    There must have been a feeling of disdain as to what minority ethnic groups could do if they came together.

    “Is it okay if we use our products there? “It’s military supplies.”

    “You didn’t hear the news? I guess there were monsters rampaging there too. “It’s not as bad as our empire, but it’s doing a pretty good job of blocking it, but it’s about to become overwhelming.”

    Land given to ethnic minorities as if they were receiving special treatment from the emperor.

    Of course, it was not a safe place from the threat of monsters.

    The emperor probably thought that if the ethnic minorities could defend themselves, he would have less to worry about.

    So many years passed.

    Disaster struck the ethnic minorities who had been on the front lines without any major problems.

    Just as we suffered from the monster wave, the front lines guarded by ethnic minorities were also attacked by monsters.

    “I think I’m doing a good job of blocking the monsters, but I’ve reached a limit where I can’t withstand it. So he ended up asking us for help. I need some support. Of course, the emperor ignored the request, and I guess he eventually begged to be allowed to buy something.”

    “Oh my.”

    It’s not even harsh.

    Even though people were dying, the emperor seemed to have no sympathy.

    In fact, the people who left because they didn’t like the empire were asking for their lives because they were in a hurry, which was enough to make them angry.

    “Still, it would be a headache if the front line they were protecting was breached, so they said they allowed you to purchase the goods.”

    “Your pride must have been hurt a lot. “The people there must have been struggling to avoid getting help from the people of the empire.”

    “Everyone looks like they’re going to die, so what can we do? “Even if it’s humiliating, you have to bow down.”

    I understand what happened.

    So now we need a business that will sell military supplies to minorities in exchange for money… .

    “Are you going to hand over that honey bucket to us?”

    It’s about dealing with ethnic minorities.

    There is no way they would know about the prices of the empire, and they could probably make huge profits if they had a bad mind.

    There would be a lot of merchants who would want to have that honey barrel, but Princess Mona gave it to us right away to have.

    It was brought to my mouth for me to eat, but it made no sense to refuse it.
