by fnovelpiaThe Treaty of Versailles, a monster created by the Entente Powers, swollen with sexual desire, to cut off the limbs of our country (Germany) after World War I so that it would never be able to confront them again. In response, our country (Germany) pretended to comply on the outside, but when the time came, it was prepared to stand up and wield the sword, the Astrakhan Military Academy.
Before crossing the main gate of…, we turned the car slightly and entered a nearby residential area. It’s good that Bryn and Hanna, who don’t look like military cadets even after watching and cooking, were brought here, but it was still difficult in many ways to have them stay together in the military academy, so this was a step toward finding a home for the two.
“Hey, we didn’t bring that many rubles… Do you also accept pure gold?”
“Huh, indeed. How much gold did you bring? Wow, that’s enough to buy this house. There are not one, but two, three 1kg gold bars… how many are there? Go ahead and own this house, sir.”
By giving Hannah a glimpse of the gold bar he took out of her arms, he was able to get a spacious and comfortable house with four rooms even in a communist country where private property was prohibited. It was a moment when I realized that even communists who hate capitalism crumble helplessly in front of gold.
When I think about it, even in the original world, towards the end of the 20th century, when the Soviet Union began to show signs of collapse, the Communist Party members who had been forcing starving communism on the people with guns and swords learned the principles of capitalism faster than anyone else and made a lot of money.
The current Soviet system, which dates back decades to the worst moment of the disintegration of the Union, is so strong that there is no room to even dare to poke at it from the outside, but the fact that capitalist greed resides in the red hearts of Communist Party members both then and now Since that hasn’t changed, it might not have been so strange that I was able to buy a house as a foreigner.
If this happens, won’t there be a way for me and Bryn, who will be living in a dormitory inside the military academy, to meet in a house outside the military academy? The answer to this problem was provided by Hannah.
“Actually, there is no way for the young lady and I to enter the military academy together with Paula and Elysia. The methods that immediately come to mind include mind control, perception manipulation, invisibility, and document manipulation.”
“If you are not sure that you are the only one in this world who knows how to use magic, I hope you will not use that method. Oh, right now, besides you, there is another person near me who knows how to use magic, so I guess this assumption is meaningless in the first place?”
“Hmm. As Paula said, there are many beings in this world other than me and Elysia who know how to use magic. Although it is only a minority compared to the total population.”
“Anyway, during the years I was attending the military academy, if I continued to use magic to hide my identity, would I end up with magic marks? Don’t you think that if something like that remains, your tail will get stepped on?”
“If you use magic to stay by Paula’s side, not just for a few days but for years, you will definitely run the risk of being exposed to others. However, the method I am about to tell you is much safer than the ones I mentioned earlier.”
“Safe way? Is there a way to combine life at the military academy and being a mother? I’m listening, so go ahead and say it.”
“Please accept this. It is a two-way teleportation device that can be used freely regardless of distance. If you place this inside Paula’s quarters, and I install the other pair inside the house outside the military academy… you will be able to meet the young lady without being seen by others.”
The item that Hannah gave, saying it was a two-way teleportation device, was a blue sapphire ring that looked ordinary and beautiful on the outside. I looked at it in the light of a light hanging from the ceiling and wondered: The diamond ring that Elysia gave me is already on my left ring finger, so which finger should I put it on?
…Why on earth is a woman like me worrying about this? I said in the first place that you just have to put it in the room. Anyone who sees it would think that I am a new wife who is worried about what to do with the ring on my left ring finger because I cannot take it off or wear it because it contains memories of my beloved husband(?), and I feel sorry for neglecting the ring I received as a gift.
Clearing my throat and shaking off my worries, I imagined myself using the power of this ring to teleport back and forth between the military academy and the residential area, receiving training during the day and taking care of Bryn at night. Even with this method, it would be impossible to avoid leaving traces of the use of magic, but since it would be less than taking Hannah and Bryn around the military academy, this method seemed the best.
However, before adopting this method, we should also ask the wishes of Bryn, who is destined to be separated from her mother and play alone with Hanna during the day. I lifted Bryn and looked into her cute eyes and asked this question.
“Our Bryn~ Mom has to go to school during the day to study from now on, but she can’t take Bryn to school. So, if I have fun with Hanna at this house, I can come back and take care of Bryn in the evenings and on the weekends, but can I stay calm and not cry even if mom is not around during the day?”
After hearing my words, Bryn said that it had only been a few days since she met her mother again, and that she didn’t want to be separated again. Instead of crying, she asked me a question with a purely curious expression.
“School? Even grown adults like Mom have to study, right?”
“Of course~ Just because you become an adult doesn’t mean you can stop studying and just play. No, rather, I have to learn many more difficult things than before I became an adult, right?”
“University…University! I can’t tell you where I saw it! Is mom going there too?”
“Oh my, do you know what university does?”
No matter how much I thought about it, ‘university’ was an incredibly difficult word to come out of the mouth of a one-year-old, so I couldn’t help but listen to the story more.
As I listened to Bryn’s words, I realized that my baby knew more about the education system than I thought. Bryn, who took the opportunity to show off her knowledge, came out of nowhere with a white sketchbook and whipped it up. In one letter, he wrote ‘Daycare/Nursery → Kindergarten → Elementary school → Middle school → High school → University → Graduate school’ and showed it to me.
After completing the task of arranging the educational institutions that people can experience while living in his sketchbook, Bryn put on an energetic expression and shook his shoulders as if he was asking me to praise him. I patted his head and praised him just as he had hoped. didn’t
Putting aside his understanding of the education system, the fact that a child of Bryn’s age could write so clearly was enough to merit not only simple praise but praise as a genius.
“Our Bryn~ Not only is she cute, she knows how to write! I also know what school does! How can you be so smart~?”
“Ehehehe…”
After receiving my praise, Bryn smiled honestly, and as I looked at the bright baby smile in my eyes, I was convinced that if Bryn knew this much about the education system, I could help him understand the military academy. explained.
A military academy is a higher education institution similar to a university, but it is a place to raise soldiers to protect the country rather than smart scholars. Since you have to study hard and exercise hard, you can’t bring a baby with you… What about this? I would like to say that the negotiating countries are bad and our country (Germany) is unconditionally right, etc., but I didn’t do that in front of the child because I felt like a political idiot.
After my explanation was finished, Bryn patted my arm and shouted in a lively voice as if she wanted to cheer me up.
“Mom, cheer up! Chakan Bryn will wait at home and play with Wing Wing until mom comes!”
“Our Bryn~ She answers so bravely~ Should I give her a kiss~?”
“Yes! The more you kiss, the tighter it gets!”
After the warm kiss between mother and daughter, Bryn waved to her mother as she was leaving the front door, saying, ‘Bbabye!’ Thanks to this, I was able to go to the military academy with Elysia, relieving much of the burden that came from leaving my newborn with a nanny and going to school.
Elysia maintained a dissatisfied look in her eyes throughout the friendly conversation between Bryn and I, but she did not express her dissatisfaction outwardly. When I bought a house for Bryn and Hannah, I seemed to like that I chose a house that included a large room that could be used as a couple’s room in case something happened where we had to stay there.
There are not one, two, or three rooms, but a whopping four, so even if the largest room is used as a couple’s room (?) and separate rooms for Hannah and Bryn, there will be one room left. This spare room could be used as a guest room, but it would be even better if it were decorated as a personal room for Winter (no matter how much I thought about it, there could not have been a more fitting name for the child I met on the way to the snow-covered Soviet Union) who will be out in the world in ten months.
I quickened my steps toward the military academy, hoping that the day would come when I could meet Winter as soon as possible.
