When I came outside, there was the principal looking at me with a strange expression.

“What happened that made that kid run away?”

“Of course. I don’t know either.”

I don’t know what the question was for, but I told the truth.

Then the principal looked at him as if he was not amused.

“That’s true, but have you thought about it?”

“Something.. ah.”

A lot happened yesterday, so it didn’t come to mind for a while.

“Huh… do you know how many people want to be my disciples? But Berador seems to just forget about that. I even went to see him and made an offer.. Ugh.. Even if I did that, Berador would not accept it and would reject it.. Ah.. Why is it like this..”

“… Please stop, Principal. It’s so obvious..”

I woke up the principal, who was writing a novel alone.

The principal lightly covers his mouth and smiles.

“Did you get caught?”

“.. Principal, you are very playful.”

“If you don’t do this, your emotions will wear out, because that’s the life of a longevity servant. In order to protect your emotions, you must always express them strongly.”

“… I see…”

“So what are you going to do? Will you become my disciple?”

I didn’t have time to think about it, but honestly, it wasn’t something I had to think about.

There is no reason not to make a transaction that only benefits you.

“Yes. Please take care of me in the future, Master.”

“Hehe.. It’s a good sound as expected. Anyway, congratulations.”

“Yes?”

The principal smiled mischievously and left first.

‘What are you celebrating? Are you talking about winning in sparring?’

At the time, I didn’t know what the principal’s last words meant.

***

After sparring, I went back to the dormitory.

There was nothing else to do.

But what I saw when the dormitory door opened.

“I will hold it for you.”

“I’m holding on tight.”

“Ugh!! Ugh!!”

Agnes holding on to Solar, who had been sparring with me a little while ago, and Bea freeing herself by rotating her wrists.

‘Wow.. why am I hallucinating..’

I rubbed my eyes for a moment and looked again to see Bea right in front of me. I was startled and fell down.

“Surprise..”

“Are you okay..?”

“Are you okay?”

Agnes was just as surprised as Bea, who felt sorry for falling.

“It’s okay.. but why did you bring that person?”

I ignored my concerns and pointed to Solar and asked.

Well… it’s obvious what he was trying to do.

“Ugh.. I just wanted to become friends..?”

“Ma.. That’s right! That’s really all..”

“Ugh!! Ugh…”

Bea approached her, who was protesting by showing the veins on her neck, and patted her and asked.

“Right, Solar?”

“Ugh..”

“That’s right?”

“Ugh…”

In the end, Bea, who made me tell the truth through threats… no, friendly skinship, smiled as if she did a good job, looked at Solar, and then approached me again.

Looking at Sola’s scared face, I felt a little pitiful.

But Bea and Agnes don’t do it for no reason.

“Do it in moderation. Moderately.”

“Don’t worry. Because we also know goodness.”

‘Now, if this isn’t crossing the line… then what is crossing the line…’

Even though they were my girls, I got a little goosebumps.

“But Vera.”

“.. Huh?”

“Why do I smell like a principal?”

“…?”

‘I didn’t even know I smelled like that?’

In the first place, the only contact I had with the principal was a handshake.

But where does the principal’s scent come from?

“What is this?”

“..?”

Bea held something and held it in front of my eyes.

It was long golden hair.

“.. Where did that come from..?”

“In Vera’s arms?”

“Huh..?”

‘I’m bored.’

There is physical evidence, but the mental evidence is…

There it is…

That’s why I said I would become a disciple today.

“Bera..?”

“Is that true, Berador?”

As I remained silent, Agnes, who was watching next to me, joined in and grabbed one of my arms and pulled me towards her.

Even if I said no, I didn’t think anyone would believe me.

Because my eyes have already rolled back.

‘We can talk after Bea and Agnes’ anger subsides.’

With that in mind, he was captured and dragged away, and it was several hours later before he was released.

***

Still, the only skinship was embracing.

Bea didn’t let Agnes go any further than that, saying she had to do it first, and she fell asleep while trying again, so she only had to let Agnes go, but Agnes also hugged her for hours to get over the fact that they couldn’t meet up to now.

I went there to scold him, but my heart became warmer, and I left the two sleeping women alone and came out.

“Ugh! Ugh!”

“Ah.. I forgot..”

Sola was seen tied up and left on the living room floor.

“Ugh, why did you start a battle.. and in front of them..”

I grumbled a little and untied him, but red marks remained on my wrists.

“Oh… are you okay?”

“.. Yes..”

After that, the silence subsides and he touches his wrist.

After doing this for a while, Solar looked at me and asked.

“.. Why are you being nice to me.”

“?”

Did you treat me well?

Now, these things?

My tastes are a bit… unusual…

“I challenged you to battle with incorrect information. And we lost overwhelmingly. But why don’t you want anything from me?”

“..ah.”

‘That’s what it was about…’

It’s natural that I didn’t say anything to Solar.

After all, that was a rumor my father spread.

But there’s no other way to explain it…

“Just.. yo?”

“… Just.. this..?”

Even if I didn’t start a fight because of that rumor, I didn’t have any intention of punishing him.

Moreover, I knew the extent of my abilities and was able to gain experience, so there was nothing bad about it.

“.. I see.. You don’t need someone like me…”

But how does the story flow like this?

“Hey.. What’s wrong..?”

“Academy sparring rules.. Don’t you know..?”

“Was there something like that?”

Although I heard an explanation about the academy, I did not hear an explanation of the rules within it.

Moreover, since I missed the entrance ceremony, I don’t know anything about the rules.

“Yes. What’s wrong?”

“That..”

Solar, who paused for a moment, spoke while slightly averting her eyes.

“The loser… becomes the winner’s servant for a week…”

“..?”

“And if the person who applied for the sparring loses…until the winner wants…”

“Wait a minute…wait a minute…”

‘The reason why Agnes and Bea’s expressions looked a little bad at that time was because of this…’

Since I didn’t know there was a rule like this, I didn’t want to react too much, but now that I know, I think that kind of reaction is appropriate.

Right now, I feel terrible thinking about another man sparring with Bea Hantae.

There will be no problem, but…

Still, I won’t allow it.

Since I accepted that without even thinking about it, I could understand why Bea and Agnes were angry.

“Haa..”

‘Is this what the principal meant when he said congratulations?’

“Are there any other rules?”

“..Everything done to servants..is said to be lawful..”

‘This is the academy, right..?’

To a strong person, it would just be a slave breeding center.

What on earth were they thinking about this rule?

“This is to prevent academy cadets from sparring carelessly. And I heard that in order to develop a sense of responsibility for one’s own choices.”

“Haa..”

Yes, the purpose is…

It’s okay, but the content is too strong.

“Then didn’t Bea and Agnes kidnap you?”

“Well.. I came to this dormitory but..”

“It is a kidnapping…”

“…”

What should I do now?

Although it is said that her true intentions were not mixed up at all, Solar became a servant.

‘As expected… it would be right to release him.’

“As expected, I quit being a servant…”

“Ugh.. of course.. you don’t need someone like me..”

‘Why must you!! ‘That’s such an extreme way of thinking!’

“.. wouldn’t be good..”

“E..? Thank you..”

Solar smiles with relief, happy to be told to continue as a servant.

“For now, please go back today. And please don’t say anything about what happened in Dalian.”

“.. That..”

Solar trembles after hearing the command.

No way… right?

“Did I already tell you?”

“Well.. I told you about the result…”

“Anyone…”

“Chi.. To my friend..”

“Haa… First of all, please don’t tell that friend how you lost and also tell him not to spread rumors.”

“.. Okay.. Sorry..”

With those words, I stand up and go out the door.

“Then I will come tomorrow morning.”

“Yes..”

I guess I’ll have to think a little more about what to do with the new servant.

I looked at the door Sola left through, closed my eyes, and was lost in thought for a moment.

It’s so sad to think about what will happen in the future.

There is no one like Anne.

It would take too long to hope for that level of ability from Solar…

If Anne had been there at a time like this…

“It would be good…”

“What do you mean? Master.”

“.. Huh?”

When I opened my eyes, I saw Anne wearing a suit, slightly lowering her head and looking at me.

“The head of the family asked me to pass it on to you. From now on, Anne will be the master’s maid. And.”

Anne said, kneeling down.

“I was appointed as the master’s bodyguard.”

“Uh.. Anne was also a knight?”

“Yes. I was trained for the purpose of protecting masters and young ladies.”

I had to look up slightly when I told Anne, who was still looking at the floor as she spoke, to stand up.

‘Tsk… why am I not tall…’

Although her height had not yet exceeded 160, Anne looked like she would exceed 170.

Bea was also over 160…

Anne’s expression seemed to reflect those thoughts, as she displayed a determined expression.

“You will grow up in just a little while.”

“.. Thank you at least for your words.”

“No.”

“…Actually, I think it’s okay even if it’s not that big…”

“Huh? What did you say?”

“No. I didn’t say anything.”

It seemed clear what he was saying, but it didn’t really matter.

Just having Anne there makes planning easier.

“Ann I have a question. Is there a god you believe in? Religion or something?”

“There is, but why are you doing that?”

There is one thing you need to do before that.

“Then let’s give up that religion.”

“.. eh?”

Even if I use my abilities in front of Anne, I have to make sure that nothing happens.
