(EP-18.2) How A Sheep Lives #3
018 – How A Sheep Lives In A Lion's Den #3
“Then what about a Princess? I think it would be nice if a Princess could sing to their heart's content… In fact, I want to be a Princess more than a Queen! Can I do that?”
No, what was with his Princess obsession?
There was already the tomboy Elga, and now Richard turned out to be obsessed with Princesses.
At this point, there had to be sothing wrong with the Lioness's ho education.
Aira then said.
"Richard-gun, I'll try to make special arrangents for you to beco a Princess."
"Wow!"
Eum…
As I swallowed a sigh, Reinhardt said while stroking his face.
“He certainly has a lot of issues to deal with…”
To that, Aira sipped her tea and lightly responded.
“He is different, he will do well.”
It was an answer that didn't seem to have much aning. But, surprisingly, it made a lot of people think.
* * *
“Hey, Aira, what is the aning of this? Why is my father in the Chancellor's seat? And my brother Richard is your successor? Why are there so many things I didn’t know?"
After dinner.
Elga asked Aira, who was looking at the garden.
Perhaps only Elga could ask Aira in such a manner. And yet, Aira remained calm.
“Now that you know, isn't that fine?”
“That's not what I'm saying! Why am I in the dark like this!?”
Elga then turned to . Her blue eyes felt like they were on fire.
“Hey, Theo, did you know?”
“Yes.”
It was my idea, of course I knew.
But I didn't explain it because I didn't need to tell Elga. In fact, if she had known about this, who knew how things would've turned out?
Elga didn't stop and got even angrier.
“At this rate, my little Brother will actually beco a Princess! What is this strange blowing fad!?”
Now that, I swore I was not a part of it. Though I could understand why you were angry.
“So, Aira, is it true that you are going to the academy?”
“…….”
This ti, Aira did not even answer.
Aira going to the academy…
It hadn’t been decided yet.
“Aira, isn’t the Academy in the Holy Kingdom of Gracia? Do you know how strict and harsh the rules are? Staying there, you can’t simply act however you want!”
“Elga, I’ve never done sothing like that.”
"Don't lie. Anyway, think about it carefully. Even if it's just for a year, you'll probably have to live a monotonous and boring life like those church fanatics.”
“…….”
Aira's brows twitched. Driven by that montum, Elga continued to speak in excitent.
“Ya, over there, they say you have to get up at 6 in the morning and imdiately start praying. You also have to set a titable and listen to daily lectures as scheduled.”
“…….”
“You even have to walk every day and do a roll call before going to sleep. How are you going to lead such a life? How boring would your ti in the dormitory be?”
“…….”
A frown gradually appeared on Aira's face.
This ant that the nasty stories Elga had been telling was giving Aira a negative view of the Academy.
“Hey, when you go there, the Princes, Princesses, nobles and dukes of neighboring countries will surely squeal and squirm at you. Are you sure you can stand all that?”
"Perhaps… Kasim, could that guy be there too?”
“Ah, Kasim-. Aira, if you say you're going to the Academy, he'll definitely co. Imagine being in the sa class as that guy, listening to him for an entire year~.”
"Eum….”
Aira's expression darkened noticeably.
At the sa ti, it felt like a cool chill was passing through my back. It was the feeling of cold blood dripping down my body.
Elga, you evil bitch!
You were about to destroy my plans!
In order to avoid the eventual execution ending in a dark hero novel, there was nothing more effective than changing the very genre of said story.
The "Academy Life" was the best thing I could co up with.
Soone might ask why I chose it. Well, the reason was very subjective.
Most "Academy Life" stories in the dia, at least from what I rembered, had a happy ending.
In addition, there was actually an Academy on this land that specialized in fostering the church’s Champions and Paladins.
The na of the Academy was ‘Ark’.
When the wall collapsed and the dark forces ca, Ark was the only place not destroyed. In fact, it even got used as a defensive base.
For the safety of Aira and myself, there was no better place than there. It must have been nad ‘Ark’ because it was a defensive base in the first place, right?
So, the two of us had to go there no matter what.
“Aira, imagine going to the sa class with Kasim every day, staying in the sa group and doing the sa task~. That greasy bastard would try to woo you all the ti~.”
“Kasim…. that's a bit….”
Damn it!
Now, I was convinced that things would be better if I dealt with Elga, who was holding Aira back.
But, as always, that would have to co after Aira’s early bedti.
“I’m sleepy. Where is the bedroom?”
“Your Majesty, this Theo Gospel will guide you.”
I then led Aira to the safest and most luxurious room. After laying down on the bed, she began to fall asleep.
“See you tomorrow, Theo…”
"Good night, my Lady."
Perhaps tired from today's sudden visit, Aira imdiately dozed off as soon as she laid on the pillow.
Saegeun, saegeun-
One might wonder if it was dangerous and careless to do so in a foreign place, but it was actually okay for a high-ranking Magician like Aira who always covered her body with magic.
After all, a sleeping Magician was more dangerous than a hungry lion…
Anyway, the problem wasn't Aira, it was this gal.
“Hey, Theo. I have a lot to talk with you about today. You better not think of sleeping before that~.”
When I ca out, Elga started cracking her knuckles. It was fine, since I also had so business with her.
Tonight, I was going to grab Elga's leash.
By any ans necessary.
For the sake of my survival!
