episode_0010

Meanwhile, the academy entrance ceremony is underway.

Esti, who was just laughing awkwardly, didn’t know…

There was always an uncomfortable atmosphere in the hall.

-Clang.

‘Nothing happened… why am I so anxious?’

A knight who expresses anxiety and readies his sword under an ominous atmosphere.

It was an action unbecoming of an elite group like the Imperial Knights, but no one blamed him.

Because all the capable people were on edge.

Under the unexplainable anxiety that something could happen at any moment.

…Why are the Empire’s elite troops reacting like this?

The reason was simple.

Because in reality, they were exposed to threats.

Because it wasn’t just simple anxiety, it was a warning from my intuition.

The armed forces currently in power are…

——Because it wasn’t just the royal family.

-Quiet.

[North, no problem.]

[There is no problem in the south either.]

[Entrance and passageway too.]

[Hmm. I guess there’s no problem with the sky?]

Meanwhile, the men carrying swords communicated using sign language.

Covered in illusionary magic that makes it impossible for anyone to recognize them.

It would have been shocking for the knights to know.

It is said that those who were protecting the Emperor did not notice its existence…

Because it’s in line with the meaning that even if they attack the emperor, he won’t react.

They were now in a position where they could even bring down the empire’s skies.

…but fortunately.

Their goal was not rebellion or anything like that.

Quite the opposite.

They, the TS Brigade.

They gathered to prevent the prophesied attack.

[I don’t see anyone particularly suspicious?]

[Do not let your guard down until the very end. If the saintess’ prophecy is true, a rebellion will break out soon.]

[okay.]

The elite of the TS Brigade gathered under the command of the ‘Saint’, Stië.

They too were busy keeping an eye on the chairman.

To find terrorists who would dye the Academy entrance ceremony bloody, and to subdue them as soon as the incident occurs.

And, between them, the letters TS are tattooed on the back of their hands.

Especially those with great skills nodded their heads proudly.

‘Raiding the academy? I’m thinking the same thing as when I was in the orphanage. Where is he? Let me see what kind of kid he is.’

Chosen by the saint, he escaped the cruel fate of being abused in an orphanage and sold into slavery.

… If things had gone as planned, he would have been a villain who would eventually turn dark and cause a terrorist incident at the entrance ceremony.

Although no one knew it, he was the one who was responsible for the attack on the academy.

However, he ended up siding with the TS Brigade.

Is there any chance that the raid will happen as in the original?

In the end, they just stood still until the entrance ceremony was over.

[… Aren’t there any kids trying to attack?]

[The saint must have done something. Let’s withdraw now.]

[By the way, isn’t that girl called the Third Princess cute because she resembles the saint?]

[Ah, I suddenly want to see the saint again…]

It was an extremely sloppy move, befitting the group Esti was leading.

* * *

I had high hopes that there would be an attack, but in the end, the entrance ceremony ended without a hitch.

Because, I…

“Este Noir d’Abruen. My dear daughter. How was it? My surprise speech was… .”

“Abama, what should I do if you come all of a sudden!!”

‘They were scared and couldn’t attack because of Abamama!!!’

“What, what…!!!?”

The Emperor and Abama came up to the balcony in a hurry as soon as the speech was over.

I yelled loudly in his face.

It’s obvious why the raid didn’t happen.

It was clear that he had given up early on after receiving information that the Emperor was coming to speak at the Academy.

No matter how strong the villain is, he won’t be able to break through the solid ranks of the Imperial Knights and cause a commotion.

And that means all my preparations for the raid were in vain.

I couldn’t help but get angry.

‘No, I’m glad you came. Why didn’t you say anything!! If you had told me, I wouldn’t have had to worry about making plans!!’

-Crunch.

That’s why a cold wave hit my eyes when I looked at Abamama.

Abamama must have been stabbed too, she was avoiding my eyes…

“But, Estee. Who is that woman? She doesn’t seem to be a servant.”

“Ah.”

Rather than avoiding my gaze, Abamama focused her gaze on Irene behind me.

… Well, it’s understandable that the youngest daughter is sitting on another woman’s thigh.

Louis was the first to open his mouth to express his curiosity.

“Your Majesty. Her name is Irene. Just now, Esty saved her from being bullied and made her her friend. ”

-Thump thump.

“I see the sky of the empire… .”

Under Louis’ simple instructions, the fluffy Irene chair evolved into a massage chair.

He seems to want to get up right away, but he can’t because I’m sitting on him, so he’s hesitating.

I slowly opened my mouth, enjoying the strange coolness.

To save her.

“Are you okay, Abamama?”

“Because you’re a commoner… Estee. You have to be selective with your friends.”

“Dad~♡ Are you okay?”

“… Of course, my dear daughter!!”

It didn’t take much effort.

Because I fell for it right away when you called me dad.

“Wow~ There’s no one better than Dad! Dad is the best! Your speech today was awesome too!”

“Huh, huh… How can it be this special… .”

As if that wasn’t enough, he was showered with compliments like, “Your speech today was really great.”

Thanks to that, Abamama quickly became satisfied and withdrew.

“Heh, heh heh… It was worth taking the time to stop by. Oh, Estee. Take this. ”

-Jangle.

“Hey, what’s the key?”

“This is a gift Maria and Elena prepared for you.”

“Sisters?”

“Yes. This is the key to your private mansion that you will use instead of the dormitory. I already have servants waiting there, so you won’t have any inconveniences.”

“… … Huh? Wait a minute. What is that.”

“Then I’ll go now. I have a lot of work to do.”

Abamama hurriedly leaves the meeting place, handing me the gift that my sisters had prepared.

I looked down at the keys in my hand and soon muttered in vain.

-Mumble.

“No, how is the gift a mansion?”

‘I prepared thoroughly to enter the same dorm as Irene… I even memorized the script… .’

Imperial Academy students had to live in dormitories throughout their time there.

If you spend a lot of money, you can get a single room. Or a double or quadruple room.

That’s why I planned to seduce Irene while taking a bath.

Since we’ve finally become friends, let’s stay in a double room together.

But… my own private mansion? What is this?

I was speechless at the fact that two plans I had prepared for today had gone awry in a row.

“A mansion instead of a dorm? What are you talking about?”

“… I don’t know. It looks like my sisters prepared something.”

“Hmm. As expected from the royal family. They don’t care about school rules.”

Louis shook his head as if he was disgusted when he saw me with my mouth wide open.

I felt a vigorous nod from behind.

-Nod, nod. Hug.

“Oh, really? Are all nobles like this?”

Irene was so surprised that she put her hand on my shoulder and asked.

It was a completely different appearance from just a moment ago when he couldn’t even speak to me first.

The shock of seeing Abamama, the sky of the empire, seemed to have reduced the distance they felt towards us.

Louis’s eyes narrowed slightly.

-Mumble.

“No, what’s really going on between the two of you…? Are all women like that?”

“… Yes?”

“Ahem. It’s nothing.”

Louis muttered to himself, perhaps envious of my natural skinship with Irene. Anyway.

After that, the two talked calmly.

“Anyway, Estee is probably the only one who gets her own private building. I was just planning on using a single room.”

“Oh, as expected of the princess… !”

The two of them talk peacefully to each other, transcending the barrier of social status.

If it were a normal situation, it would be a scene where people would exclaim, “What, what, what are you two doing?” and blow their noses.

But this time I didn’t do that.

As I was looking back and forth between the keys in my hand and the two of them…

It was because the realization struck me like lightning.

‘Isn’t this the perfect opportunity…? A chance to connect the two!!’

My own private dorm building.

I’ll have to see it in person to know for sure, but it’s definitely too big of a building for just me to live in.

Judging from the number of employees, there must be a lot of rooms.

And that’s…

This means that Irene and Louis can also be invited to stay in the spare room.

That is, this wasn’t just a mansion for me to live in alone.

It was the set where Louis and Irene filmed ‘We Got Married’.

‘Living together?! Living together!!?’

The dream of living together under one roof with my two favorite characters, which I had long ago given up on because of the separate boys and girls academy dormitories, was a dream come true.

Just imagining that scene made my mouth water.

-Gulp.

‘Wow, this is delicious. It’s definitely delicious…!!!’

So I got really excited and made a plan in my head.

A plan to persuade Louis and Irene to live together under one roof.

Before long, the corners of my mouth went up.

“Kuhuhu… Then, Irene. Louis. Do you want to go see it together? My house.”

“Princess?”

“Our house… ?”

“Hehe, let’s go for now. Okay?”

The key in his hand flashed with an ominous golden light.

* * *

After a while.

Louis sighed as he sat on the sofa in the reception room inside Estee’s ‘mansion’.

There was a look of bewilderment in his eyes as he looked around.

‘No, he even built a palace for me.’

A mansion that looks like something out of a fairy tale, perfect for a princess to live in.

I was dumbfounded at the thought that he built this because he didn’t want his daughter to live in a dormitory.

However, Louis soon shook his head and shook the thought away.

It wasn’t just a day or two that the Abrüen royal family was not allowed to sell their warships…

Because he had more important things to think about than that.

‘More than that, is it normal for women to wash together?’

After looking around the mansion for a bit.

“Then let’s wash up!” said Estee, heading to the bathroom with Irene.

Louis’s mind was in disarray.

Even from his perspective as a man, the current distance between Irene and Estee was strange.

As soon as he sees her being bullied, he rushes at her without looking back.

He didn’t spare any compliments, saying she was cute, lovely, and pretty.

Aren’t you pressuring me to be your friend?

Don’t you hesitate to be a little too touchy?

It was so different from Estee’s usual behavior.

Even if they are between women, it is like that.

So Louis spent a long time with his head wrapped in thought.

Until Estee and Irene finished their baths.

‘It’s strange. What are those two really doing…?’

-Thump thump.

The light, characteristic sound of Esti’s footsteps echoed through Louis’ mind, interrupting his thoughts that had been going on for a long time.

Immediately afterwards, the door to the reception room, which had been closed, slowly opened.

Esti reappeared after taking a bath…

“Ah, Louis… ♡”

“ST. That was pretty fast… .”

“Have you been waiting for a long time?”

“What, what the!!!!!?”

‘Estiga, a skirt…!!!!!?’

For the first time in ten years, I was wearing a skirt.
