    Episode 188 – Princess, Ariana Crowfield –

    When I returned to the academy several days later, it was similar to before.

    Of course, there were things that changed.

    My perception of myself has changed even more.

    What happened when I left the academy and was in a social setting.

    It spread at an unbelievable speed and took over the surrounding area.

    Where I was and what I did.

    I did it at the emperor’s command.

    If you play well, you will become the Emperor’s confidant.

    Even though he was evaluated low, people began to say that he was trusted by the emperor.

    This was something I heard less than 20 minutes after I started my normal academic schedule at the Academy.

    “… So princess? Could you please stop this rumor?”

    “If you try to get rid of it, they will make a fuss in a place you can’t see. Don’t you say that you also curse at me behind your back? The imperial family does not oppress to that extent.”

    In fact, if you do that, you will be caught.

    In the first place, I’m asking you to stop it because it’s annoying to hear it in my ears.

    Alice had sulked before.

    Perhaps because he enjoyed seeing me embarrassed and suffering over the rumors, he refused my request.

    no. Even though.

    If someone I like asks a favor, I will do it.

    To continue the legacy of someone who likes Changjedo.

    I raised a woman who wasn’t even my child.

    That’s something he’s unique about though.

    “I’m not trying to slander you, but there’s nothing particularly bad about it, right?

    Ah, so it sounds like this.

    I want to boast that the man I like is this kind of man.

    If you’re a member of the royal family, you think more rationally.

    Your own desires come first.

    If I just listen to this conversation, it’s like Alice following me around.

    This companionship was suggested by me.

    To simply punish the clumsy political maneuvering that is trying to get close to me.

    Because there was almost nothing like the true royal family.

    At this point, the rumor had spread to the point that it wasn’t strange that Alice and I were together.

    “So what do you plan to do in the future?”

    “Well? I’m not sure because I recently successfully completed an operation that I had been planning for a long time.”

    “Is that so? Is this something you planned from your previous life?”

    “At that time, I didn’t know if I would even be in this country. I must have been about 4 years old when I thought of that.”

    “You sound great. When I was 4 years old, I lowered my ability to picture the future 14 years from now.”

    “Me. Even if it looks like this. Older than His Majesty the Emperor. It’s not at the level to be considered that way.”

    In my previous life, I was 27 years old.

    I’m 18 now.

    Together they are 45 years old.

    He is over 38, the age of the emperor.

    In the first place, it was due to the nature of nobles getting married really early.

    Although he is 5 years older than my father.

    Huh~

    Alice must have found my remarks interesting.

    He greeted me with a smile.

    If anyone sees them, they will just look like ordinary lovers.

    They’re not lovers, but someone would think they are, so maybe it’s not that weird.

    “If there is nothing you want to do. Just living is also a good idea. All you have to do is live a normal life. He falls in love with a normal woman, has a child, and starts a family. That kind of life.”

    Alice left behind words that clearly revealed her intentions.

    Marry a woman and start a family.

    Everyone will know who that woman is without even having to say anything.

    Even the premise is wrong.

    I don’t know if you know this or not.

    The life I lead with you is not ordinary.

    Whether it is the great nobles or the imperial family.

    Whether it is the marriage between an untouchable and a member of the royal family.

    It is true that it is very special.

    I think he probably wanted to convey that it was normal for people to choose me even though they knew about it.

    “… Is he really a henchman?”

    “To be considered a close associate… Isn’t it too weak?”

    “Abraxas Yeongsik is weak. The president won last time too. In the end, it turned out to be the truth and not a rumor.”

    The president and I had a fight.

    The fact that my inner self, who I didn’t even know I was, won, was no longer a rumor.

    Until now, the imperial family had directly controlled public opinion for fear of exposing me to uncontrolled power.

    With the Emperor’s words, there will be no need for that anymore. I lost control.

    The information, which many people had known before, was quickly released and covered the academy.

    “But is that some kind of overclocking? Wasn’t it because of that and other reasons that you lost? There’s no way the president was sincere in the first place.”

    “Everyone said they didn’t mean it. Still, it’s good enough.”

    Of course, if I really win, the president will lose face.

    Perhaps due to various issues, it was said that the president was not sincere.

    Of course, I don’t know if it’s real or not.

    Based on the results of the Swordsmanship, I just think that even a full-strength president can win.

    I don’t even remember anything in the first place, so what can I figure out?

    “So that’s the problem. I admit that Abraxas Yeongsik is capable. But that’s not specialization in force, is it? It is true that he is a competent person whom His Majesty can trust, but he is not capable of acting alone.”

    As expected, the emperor was right to take unreasonable measures.

    No matter how much I think about it, it’s not something that would personally make me stay by his side.

    Are you capable?

    Even if it has the fraudulent characteristic of future time.

    It’s okay because you look capable on the outside.

    But is it worth entrusting me with a solo operation?

    The answer was very simple.

    ‘No way.’

    Absolutely not.

    I am not someone worthy of taking charge of a solo operation.

    Anyone would think so.

    The most important thing in solo operations is an all-rounder.

    You must have high abilities in all aspects.

    in other words. Rather than focusing on selling in one location.

    All stats must be at the highest hexagon.

    That’s why they are treated as the emperor’s closest associates.

    If you have outstanding abilities, you will inevitably be in the minority. Among those few powerful people, there is an unknown being who is loyal to the emperor.

    Because the emperor has no choice but to be dear.

    In the end, most of the problems that arise are not due to my abilities.

    As long as I’m just receiving secret orders from the emperor, it won’t be considered a problem.

    Because it is a solo operation.

    This is because my military power seems insufficient to carry out a solo operation.

    This is especially true because power is not exactly quantified.

    ‘There is no answer anyway. If the Emperor knew about Yan Guo’s situation, he would also know that I am an Auror Master. I guess that was also taken into consideration.

    Anyway, looking at public opinion right now, it’s completely impossible for me to go abroad.’

    It is none other than the title of the emperor’s closest aide.

    Real or fake, any normal leader has no choice but to monitor me considering the 1% possibility.

    If you go abroad, you will be constantly monitored.

    Then most of the operations I plan to do become meaningless.

    The source of my strength ultimately comes from a game called WFS.

    Because there is information asymmetry.

    “So what are the dating rumors with Princess Alice?”

    “Would you let your closest associate marry your daughter? Your Majesty?”

    “If Yeong-sik is really His Majesty’s confidant, then that could actually be the case. If Yeong-sik is at a level where he can become a true confidant, he can definitely tie together a person of that level and a family that has no shortcomings.

    What about the princess? If it is a partner chosen by His Majesty, there is no particular reason to dislike it. Also, the reason you saved the princess may have been because of His Majesty’s orders.”

    “Kyaaaak!!!!!! Then, as His Majesty commanded, she was the one you were going to marry, but it could be that you actually fell in love because of the influence of saving her? It’s possible!”

    “Please refrain from making such assumptions. Even if His Majesty had said it in the first place… You know? It could be a political story.”

    Even if the emperor revealed that I was his closest associate.

    It is personal freedom to believe that in your heart.

    So, among the nobles, I don’t know that I received the emperor’s order.

    Not many people thought he was at the level of a real SS member.

    Everyone just thought that the emperor was just engaging in political activities.

    Of course, not everyone is sure.

    It has no other meaning anyway.

    We’ve already come a very long way.

    Let’s just accept it.

    That was the answer.

    “So is life at the academy okay these days?”

    “I came the day before yesterday. Princess?”

    “So I asked. I haven’t heard anything directly from you lately. Because other people’s perspectives and your feelings cannot be the same, I decided it would be better to hear it from you directly.”

    Hmm… Have you noticed something already?

    I thought it would be best to handle this on my own, so I tried to do it alone.

    Anyway, if Alice decides to investigate, the information will be revealed.

    Therefore, I honestly told Alice the truth.

    “… Yo.”

    “What did you say?”

    “Ariana Crowfield, the eldest daughter of the Crowfield dukedom, is the problem.”

    The eldest daughter of the Duke of Crowfield.

    Ariana Crowfield.

    When I returned to this academy.

    There were a lot of things she had made that were hostile to me before.
