“Sigh..”

Right after class, Katlena wanders around the school grounds as if she’s wandering.

Catlena, with a gloomy expression on her face, sighs as the ground collapses.

It was an appearance that didn’t really suit Katlena, who usually had a dignified but also lively image.

This is it. It could be said that this most accurately expressed her feelings about the current situation.

‘How long will I have to live like this, anxiously?’

Since the new semester started, Zeros has been called by Princess Maeb almost three or four times a week.

Catlena felt increasingly uncomfortable as she watched Zeros head towards the princess with a now familiar expression, unlike when he had initially headed there with a noticeably uncomfortable expression.

The worst case scenario she was worried about…

For example, it seems like nothing like Zeros crossing the line with the princess has happened yet…

Honestly, from Katlena’s perspective, it was inevitable that she would feel that if things continued this way, it would only be a matter of time before something like that really happened.

‘Even if our looks are equal, Hwangnyeon has a truly amazing body, unlike me. No matter how strong Zeros’ endurance is, I don’t think he’ll be able to hold out for long.’

Although I didn’t want to admit it, Princess Maeb’s body was so beautiful that even I, a court lady, could not help but admire it.

A slim waist and firm butt..

Above all, Katlena doesn’t have…

A pair of deadly weapons, comparable in power to the cannonballs attached to the chest.

It was already well known that men would go crazy just looking at a woman’s breasts, but unfortunately, Katlena’s breast size was just average for her age, neither more nor less.

‘Damn… If only I could have inherited my mother’s blood, I wouldn’t have had to worry about this at all… I didn’t know that damn woman would be the one to trick me into something like this.’

Even Senel, who was not yet an adult, was in a situation where he was wearing something great on his chest that was the envy of Elios.

Even now, the feeling when that older sister suddenly pops out from somewhere and pulls me into her arms and cuddles me… Honestly, even though I’m her blood-related younger sister, I can still feel a little bit of ecstasy.

Even more so, when I see the Duchess of Rosetta, who is the person concerned, it is truly embarrassing to think like this…

I often thought that perhaps the reason why my father, Duke Radu, and my mother were so close at that age was because of her firm heart.

‘Haa… No more, no less… If I had been exactly half as good as my mother, I wouldn’t have had to worry about this. If only I had seduced Zeros a long time ago, without having to be anxious about a princess like that…’

In that way, Katlena, feeling regretful about her bloodline in another area besides her magical skills, was waiting for Zeros to return as soon as possible.

Of course, since I was just called out, it would take over an hour to get back.

at that time..

“Princess Katlena?”

“Yes?”

The next moment, a familiar voice came from behind her, and Katlena turned around in doubt.

The person standing there.

Katlena also knew very well who she was.

However, this is only based on the standards of a previous life.

“So.. it was Elastin Rosenia C.. right?”

“Oh my.. I never thought Princess Katlena would remember me. Thank you so much.”

“Of course.. Since you are the current leader of Noblesse. It’s just a natural part of being a member of Sentinel.”

“Hehehe, now that I think about it, that’s true.”

Elastine speaks in a light voice while looking at herself.

Seeing her like this, Katlena began to feel a little strange inside.

‘Elastine Roserina. We’ve rarely met before… but this is how we’ll talk in this life.’

Elastine is quite cautious as she is talking to someone for the first time.

However, unlike Elastine, Katlena was now feeling quite familiar and friendly with the person in front of her.

Elastine Roserina, the daughter of a Marquis.

In her previous life, she was the second leader of Noblesse, just like now, and as an ardent follower of Princess Maev, she naturally developed an antagonistic relationship with Elios, who returned as the chairman.

At that time, unlike now, Princess Maeb had not entered the academy as a teacher, so from then on, Elastine and Noblis were going to have a tough fight.

However, their situation begins to improve rapidly due to the appearance of unexpected help.

A person who saved them from the brink of faction dissolution due to a conflict with Sentinels and helped them expand their influence within the Academy once again.

That person’s identity is…

The self standing here now.

It was Katlena herself.

At this point, Catlena, who had been appointed as the successor to the Duke’s throne a little while earlier and had also learned the secret of her birth, began to have a full-fledged hostile relationship with Helios.

And for her, the Noblesse faction, which had been waging a desperate struggle with Elios until the end, could be a very good ally.

In this way, Katlena used her power and authority as the next duke and the strong support of her maternal side to save Noblesse from crisis, and in return, helped it to quickly expand its power by swallowing up other factions.

And… it was only natural that during that process, he developed a close friendship with Elastine, the leader of Noblesse.

‘Actually, in my previous life, he was my best friend, except for Zeros. Although, after graduation, I got busy with work and our relationship almost ended.’

Although they were close friends within the academy, unfortunately, her hometown was in the Eastern Continent, far from the Duchy of Dragona, so after graduation, they were only able to keep in touch by exchanging letters occasionally to ask how they were doing.

If she had successfully become a duke, perhaps they would have reestablished their relationship, but that part is irrelevant now.

Anyway, Katlena felt a strange, yet familiar feeling at the same time, of having a conversation with someone she had a connection with in her previous life.

Meanwhile, Elastine, who had no way of knowing what Katlena was thinking, spoke to the princess in front of her in a serious voice while maintaining courtesy.

“I’ve heard a lot about Katlena, but I’m so happy to meet you like this. If it’s okay, could we have a cup of tea together?”

“Hmm.. Well, then, is that so? I also have some time on my hands..’

Katlena gladly accepted her suggestion, thinking that it would be a much better way to spend her time than wandering around like this, feeling anxious and uneasy.

Although it was annoying that she was such an ardent follower of that annoying yellow lady, I couldn’t help but think of refusing such an invitation, considering their friendship in their previous lives.

*

‘Hmm… I never thought you’d accept it so easily…’

Katlena’s appearance as she lightly accepts his invitation without much objection.

About this, Elastine was feeling deeply embarrassed inside.

Honestly, what she had in mind was Katlena politely or coldly rejecting her suggestion, and indeed, that seemed more natural.

Katlena is the younger sister of Chairman Elios, and it is known that she and her have a close bond as sisters.

The fact that she, a follower of Princess Maeb, had so lightly accepted his advice was enough to give some reality to the speculations she had been harboring.

‘Even so, I can’t be sure right now… Could it really be so? Princess Katlena… She was definitely the granddaughter of the Imperial High Priest Saladin, who was hostile to Duchess Rosetta, right? Could it be so…’

Although it was not something that could be concluded so hastily, seeing Katlena looking at her as the leader of Noblesse and feeling somewhat happy about it made Elastine feel a deep sense of confusion, and as she headed to the tea house, she began to feel a slight sense of anticipation.
