Academy Magic Computer System Room

    Pah

    Amidst the magic structures locked in darkness, the saint revealed herself.

    “I naturally anticipated that there would be trials.”

    She and the prince had descended to the surface to receive punishment from God for their sins.

    As such, they could only endure the trials sent by God.

    The trials of love meant to separate the prince and herself.

    “But only when we overcome these trials will our true love shine! I will follow your will, Deus.”

    The saint’s powerful sanctity connected to the academy computer system.

    – Vesperus Grankein

    -Arthoria

    After erasing her own name, she changed it to a class attended by Vesperus.

    It was the security of the Richten Academy, which even great sorcerers couldn’t easily penetrate, but for the saint Arthoria, who was considered to have the greatest talent in history, it was easier than taking candy from a child.

    “Alright. Now I can attend classes with the prince!”

    Although the world arranged separate classes for her and Vesperus due to interference, Arthoria was proud to have overcome it all.

    Wooong

    Finally, emitting sanctity once more and erasing any traces of her intrusion, she quietly left the system room.

    “Hehe. Deus, as you commanded, I have broken through the first barrier.”

    With Vesperus, she thought of returning to heaven and becoming an angel.

    “Hehe!”

    This time…

    Things she hadn’t done before…!

    Huh? I never gave such an order?

    Deus, who was observing the saint from heaven, felt a tremendous amount of desire within her and was terrified.

    * * *

    “It’s been a long time… my lovely Vesperus…”

    Vesperus hastily pulled up his pants and turned around.

    “P-Princess?”

    “It’s okay. I’ve confirmed that there’s no one around. It’s okay not to act anymore. …Are you afraid of the countrywoman from the Republic waiting in front of the restroom?”

    Seeing Vyrnus flustered and unable to respond properly, Cladiea mistakenly thought that Vyrnus, just like in the previous encounter, was also on guard and hesitating to speak.

    “You don’t need to worry. The princess has set up a barrier centered around this place. It’s a level of barrier that even the headmaster cannot penetrate.”

    The headmaster is an 8th Circle Archmage?

    Even such an archmage can’t break through the barrier?

    If the princess had a dream, could we consider her advancement in status through future memories?

    In that case, we could say that her status, which should have remained at the 6th Circle at this point, has transcended even Headmaster Beatrice.

    Considering the power displayed by Cladiea and Sophia in the recent clash, it wouldn’t be surprising if both of them had surpassed their respective roles as Archmage and Sword Master.

    Vyrnus made an effort to take a deep breath and organize his thoughts.

    Based on what the princess has said so far, I must have been a capable servant in her dream… or something like that.

    I need to make a judgment as quickly as possible.

    If the princess feels threatened, who knows what she might do.

    Recalling the image of the princess in the novel, Vyrnus felt a shiver run down his spine.

    Stay calm.

    You can do this.

    Even if the plan has gone awry, I’ve thoroughly organized information about the princess and created several scenarios.

    I can certainly act as the princess’s loyal servant.

    “Your Highness.”

    “Yes! Vyrnus!”

    When Vyrnus called out to the princess, Cladiea smiled brightly as if in ecstasy.

    This is unbelievable.

    The princess is showing emotions.

    A character who hadn’t properly shown emotions until the ending.

    “In truth, I haven’t fully grasped the current situation, but Your Highness has probably experienced the future and returned. Unfortunately, I have no knowledge of the future that you experienced, Your Highness.”

    “…Indeed, it must be you. To have guessed my situation the moment you saw me.”

    Upon hearing Vissus’s words, the princess fell into thought.

    “Rather, it means you have no memories of the future.”

    “Yes, Your Highness.”

    So does that mean he has forgotten all the days we spent together?

    All those happy days…

    It’s regrettable.

    But then, doesn’t that also mean that he has forgotten the wrongs I committed against him?

    If so, perhaps this time, I can capture his heart and make him happy!

    Now that his mistakes have been erased, she was hopeful for a bright future where she could live for Vissus.

    But isn’t it a story of her acting disgracefully towards someone who doesn’t even recognize her?

    This, this is the princess’s mistake.

    “Your Highness.”

    “Why, why are you doing this?”

    “In the future, was I something like your attendant, Your Highness?”

    “Attendant… Yes.”

    Yes, he was her attendant.

    Her one and only precious attendant.

    The attendant who had dedicated everything for her, irreplaceable by anything else.

    The only attendant who could understand her and stand on equal ground with her.

    The foolish attendant she carelessly let slip through her fingers.

    …This time, an attendant she could never afford to lose, no matter what.

    “You were the empire’s prime minister instead of me. My one and only precious attendant.”

    “…I see.”

    Despite Vissus’s calm nod, chaos reigned within him.

    …What? Prime minister?

    What on earth was I in the princess’s dream?

    Isn’t the prime minister the second-in-command of the empire?

    Is that why they’ve come to capture me already?

    To use me as their attendant!

    Was the recent argument between Sophia and the princess because of a capable individual?

    It’s good not to have job problems after graduation, but the problem is that destruction occurs before graduation.

    First, survive that, then worry about getting a job or not.

    “It seems you’re not very surprised.”

    “Yes? No. I was very surprised.”

    Well, she was certainly taken aback.

    She was going to leave Sofia behind and go, but failed and went with her arms crossed, only to find the princess standing there.

    They said Artoria and Sofia had dreams about me, so I thought maybe Claudia did too. And it turned out to be true.

    “Even when you were an academy student, your competence shone. How hard I worked to obtain you.”

    Claudia seemed lost in reminiscence.

    “Empire over Republic. Even the late queen’s favorite. Yet, despite all those opponents, the ultimate victor was the queen herself.”

    The very foolish queen didn’t even know her own fortune, yet she rejected you.

    She clenched her fist.

    “This time is no different, my dear.”

    “Yes?”

    Thud

    The princess approached Vistus and struck the wall with one hand.

    It was a posture commonly called a wall thud.

    “Follow the queen to the empire. We will mobilize all the empire’s resources to make you happy.”

    “Hmm.”

    Vistus tried to maintain a composed demeanor, but he couldn’t help but be surprised by the princess’s forcefulness.

    With a confident smile, the princess’s face, which looked down on him from close range, was more splendid than any beauty he had ever seen.

    “That… To make you happy. Is that a proposal or something?”

    Claudia, who enjoyed gathering talent in novels, knew at least that this wasn’t a confession, but rather a scout.

    If she acted as if it were a confession, she would surely be in trouble.

    I’m so drawn to this.

    A scout by the iron-willed princess who is certain to become the empress. I want to run right now.

    Instead of staying in this academy full of monsters, I could comfortably carry the princess’s authority on my back.

    But then I wouldn’t grow within the academy and wouldn’t become the kind of talent the princess wants.

    If my incompetence is revealed, I’ll be discarded immediately.

    “I appreciate your words, but I’m sorry, Your Highness.”

    “…What?”

    The princess’s pupils began to shake violently upon hearing Vistus’s refusal.

    “Refusal? My lady? By you?”

    Was she rejected by him?

    Does he no longer want my lady?

    I thought a new chapter would mean a fresh start, but it wasn’t?

    In that case… is there any point in living?

    A life without him. What meaning does it hold?

    If that’s the case, I’d rather…

    “‘Now’ seems to be difficult.”

    “What?”

    “Don’t you have things you must do, Your Highness?”

    The princess looked into the eyes of her attendant.

    “I am still lacking. I don’t want to ruin your tasks in this inadequate state.”

    …I see. Vissus. You didn’t want to show weakness to my lady. You always tried to show only the best in front of her.

    Is it still a sign that you are not satisfied with your own abilities?

    And the tasks to be done.

    The princess remembered Ohravi, who constantly interfered with her work.

    “When you finish that task, and when I regain the appropriate skills, could you propose it again at that time?”

    That task.

    I see.

    The current Vissus knows nothing about my lady.

    In the previous chapter, he followed my lady because there was an affectionate relationship, but now there is none.

    Is this to prove if he is a lord worth having?

    “Fine. I’ll take care of it within 6 months.”

    Bringing down Ohravi and organizing the succession structure.

    It took about a year and a half in the previous chapter.

    Yes.

    Show it.

    Your true ability that is worth having.

    What? 6 months?

    What are you talking about?

    Are you giving me only 6 months until the next scout? Decide within that time?

    No time given!

    Tap tap tap

    “Why isn’t she coming out?”

    Sophia stood in front of the bathroom door, arms crossed, tapping her foot on the ground.

    “…What’s taking so long?”

    I guess I should go in and see.

    Creak

    Sophia opened the door to the men’s restroom.
