After Elios disappeared from her sight, Princess Maev felt as if all the energy had drained from her body, unlike before, and threw herself onto the sofa.

‘That sword… is definitely something I gave to Zeros as a gift. But… But it’s now Elios’s. The gift I gave you… You just handed it over to Elios, right? ”

Zeros’s actions of giving the gift that contained his heart to another woman.

This could be seen as Zeros not being pleased with her sincerity, and furthermore, it could be interpreted as him already rejecting her heart.

However, although he felt a deep disappointment about that in itself, Maev was soon able to control his emotions with great difficulty.

If you think about it, Maev had absolutely no prior knowledge of why Zeros was after that sword.

Because it is something that you may think you misunderstood, since you originally intended to buy it as a gift.

‘Yeah… I’m sure that’s true… No matter what, there’s no way I could’ve handed over that level of sincerity so easily… and to a woman who’s on the opposite side of me, right? I’m sure it was because I intended to give it to her as a gift from the beginning… No… I’m sure that’s true!’

So, Maeb tries her best to turn her thoughts to the positive side in order to somehow control her emotions.

But behind that… in some ways, there was an even bigger problem lurking for her.

Of course, it was enough to hurt her feelings to have so easily handed over her sincerity to someone else.

But at this moment, there was another factor that shook Maev’s mind even more than that problem.

That was… the last thing Elios had said to himself in a mocking tone.

It was about Zero’s love.

‘A loved one? And… a person who loves you? Zeros and Elios love each other? Not Katlena… but Elios?’

Maev had always thought that the person who had captured Zeros’ heart was Katlena, and even as he came here, he was convinced that Princess Katlena would be his true rival.

In fact, it is natural to think that way, since Zeros has always been by Katlena’s side and has never hesitated to take dangerous actions that would risk his life for her.

However, the person that Zeros was harboring feelings for was not his weak younger brother, but Elios, who even Maev found difficult to touch. This was a development that Maev truly could not have imagined.

‘Is it true that she had deep loyalty to her master, but her love was elsewhere? It’s somewhat possible, but… Damn it! Why did that arrogant and presumptuous white princess once again block my path like this…’

Of course, taking Zeros from Katlena and taking Zeros from Elios were completely different in terms of weight.

In the case of Katlena, who was clearly in the upper hand, she could control the situation as she wished, but if it was Elios, there was a risk that she would be controlled by him.

That means things turned out to be a lot more difficult than expected.

‘If this happens… the plan to gradually pressure Katlena and get rid of Zeros has no meaning anymore. Rather, there is a risk of doing useless things and getting caught by Elios.’

That being said, it was obviously impossible to pressure Elios with his own hands right now.

Although Maeb had considerable influence among the students thanks to the power of the Noblesse faction and her authority as a teacher, among the teachers she was just a newcomer who had just found her place.

On the other hand, as the student council president, Elios had always interacted with teachers, and furthermore, he had a solid foundation as the daughter of the Duchess of Rosetta, so the difference in basic strength was too great.

‘I can’t help it… Since it’s come to this. I have no choice but to postpone using force. I have to build up my power within this academy. I have to gather teachers close to the Empire and somehow create a support base for myself. At the very least, so that I can defend myself from future attacks by Elios.’

In this way, Princess Maeb’s goals at this point can be largely divided into two.

One is to gather strength to defend himself against Elios, who is sure to try to restrain him in relation to Zeros’ work.

And the other thing is more important and is the ultimate purpose for which she came here.

The goal was to break through Elios’s endless attempts to control him and somehow get his hands on Zeros’ heart.

‘I will never… give up. Zeros… my little prince… I will definitely make your body and mind mine.’

The Gyomu Building is located in the very center of Academy Adelan.

As the name suggests, this is a place where teachers stay. It is used as a space for teachers to rest or prepare for the next class when there is no class.

“Thank you for your hard work.”

“Yes, thank you for your hard work.”

A female teacher walking down the hallway, giving a quick greeting to other teachers.

He looked to be in his mid-20s.

A beautiful woman with a gentle impression, with reddish blonde hair and slightly unfocused blue eyes.

She was leaving the Gyomu building with a calm and light gait that suited her appearance.

at that time.

“Sister Freya!”

“Ah, Frig.”

She shows a calm smile on her face at the bright voice calling her name.

Then, behind her, a female teacher appeared, who had the same hair color as her and relatively clear blue eyes, but who seemed to be just ordinary in appearance.

“Are all classes over today, Unnie?”

“Yes, just a moment ago. I see that there are quite a few talented kids among this year’s students.”

“That’s great. There are a lot of talented students among the lower grades. I can look forward to them when they move up to the upper grades.”

“We’ll have to wait and see. As you know, you can’t judge someone’s talent for magic so easily.”

“That’s true, but even our disciple Princess Elios has been flying since her early years. Anyway, in this world, even the first step is important.”

“Haha.. That’s not wrong either.”

Freya answered her sister’s words with a light laugh,

Looking at her older sister like that, Frigg also had a smile on her face.

at that time..

“Not Freya, Frigg.”

“Huh?”

“Oh my god..”

A familiar voice rings in my ear.

Then the two people turned their heads and met each other’s happy faces.

“Who is this? Isn’t that our cute Princess Elios? No, should I call her the Chairman now?”

“Haha, call me whatever you want. Just like I always have.”

She speaks in a polite yet bright voice.

Looking at Elios Noshelath Dragona, the new chairman and someone they could call their protégé, a warm smile began to appear on the lips of the two sisters, as if they were looking at their nephew.

“It’s been almost two years. Honestly, I was really sad when Elios graduated from the academy, so I’m really happy to see you again like this.”

“That’s right, that’s right. Although, I’m a little surprised that the little princess became such a high-ranking person as the chairman.

“Hehehe, from my perspective, it’s honestly quite burdensome to sit above the two of you against my will. Anyway… Since we can’t keep standing and talking like this, shall we go and have a cup of tea? I’ve prepared some good tea leaves especially for you two teachers.”

“Really? Then of course I should go. Let’s see what kind of treatment I’ll get for the first time in the new CEO’s office.”

The three people headed to the chairman’s office in such a bright atmosphere.

However, at first glance, they appeared to be just ordinary sister teachers and their students showing a warm relationship.

If you look into the details, their meeting was by no means an ordinary gathering.

White Princess Elios..

And the two female teachers she treats with respect

At first glance, they looked young and bright, but considering their true identities, there was virtually no one in the academy who could treat them carelessly.

They are Elios’ teachers and teach magic at the academy.

Sisters Freya and Frigg.

The two people, who could never be considered ordinary people, had already noticed the current situation to some extent.

The fact that Elios asked them to speak to him directly was not simply a greeting.
