The Failed Swordsman Who Became the Strongest After Spamming the 100 Million Years Button Chapter 162 - Allen Cell and Political Marriage [13]

162. Allen Cell and Political Marriage [13]

After Leia-sensei left the room, we exchanged glances with each other.

An important docunt from Tenshi-sama, a slow lunch, and work desk – This is a ssage from sensei saying, “Look through my work desk while I’m away.”

(From the position of “Director of the Five Academy”, it seems that she can’t openly raise an objection to this matter, but she is not in approval of this. Sensei… Thank you very much.)

Then, we imdiately started to look through the work desk.

A few minutes later, I found a complete ss of a drawer and a docunt printed with “confidential”.

「This is it!」

「Well done, Allen-kun!」

「I’d like to see the contents quickly, though…!」

I spread the docunt on the desk and everyone stared at it intently.

And on that docunt, a ridiculous thing was written.

「Political… Marriage?」

The planning of a political marriage between Sie Arcstria, the eldest daughter of House Arcstria, and Nuro Dolan, a noble.

The purpose of the marriage is to temporarily improve relations with the Holy Ronelia Empire and delay the start of the war.

In a nutshell, just a little bit of『stalling』.

「Nuro Dolan, I’ve heard this na before…」

「A rich guy from Ronelia who has been persistently asking for Sie’s hand in marriage for a few years now, though….」

When Lilim-senpai and Ferris-senpai said so with a grim look,

「『House Dolan』huh… We’ve caught the eye of another nasty opponent.」Ria whispered, with a bitter expression, oozing with disgust.

「Ria, do you know sothing?」

「Yeah… He is a noble who manages the mining industry in the Holy Ronelia Empire. He sells『Spirit Ore』and『Blood Diamond』at ridiculously high prices, amassing an enormous fortune.」

Then, she spoke as though recalling her mory.

「A few years ago, I saw him once in a conference between the Vesteria Kingdom and the Holy Ronelia Empire. He was a fat pig that was filled with greed in his eye. I later heard that he treats won like playthings. The worst of the worst!」

「「「「…… 」」」」

The information added at the end, turned the atmosphere in the room heavy.

「…In other words, the president was sold to Ronelia to buy a small amount of ti.」Rose said, briefly summarizing the story.

And then,

「Hey, this is absolutely weird! There’s no way that『doting father』will allow Sie’s marriage!」

「I’d like to go over to Rodis-san’s place and ask him about the situation. though…!」

Lilim-senpai and Ferris-senpai shouted kind of angrily.

(…Certainly, it’s as they say.)

Rodis-san loves the president from the bottom of his heart.

There is no way he will do nothing and overlook a political marriage.

(Even though he can’t go against an order from the『top』as part of House Arcstria…)

I’m sure he’ll try to help the president by any ans possible.

「It’s worth a try, let’s go.」

「Aa, let’s go!」

「Classes don’t matter in this situation, though…!」

So we went to et the president’s father, Rodis Arcstria.

■

We slipped out of class for the third period and onwards, and headed to the president’s ho.

(It’s been six months since the sumr camp that I’ve been here.)

I never thought I’d be visiting again with such a dark feeling.

I knocked on an imposing door and waited a little on the spot. And Rodis-san opened the door.

Rodis Arcstria. Shortly trimd black hair streaked with grey and well-grood goatee. Probably about 180 centiters tall. A dark green kimono and a black haori that suited quite well. A well-trained body can even be seen over his clothes. His left eye has an old scar that looks like a slash, and all-around has a tough look.

「Rodis-san, it’s been so ti since the Keishinkai. Can I borrow so of your ti?」

「Allen Rodore… and friends of Sie, huh.」

He glared at as if staring at a sworn enemy, and then turned his eyes towards Ria and the others behind .

「I’m sorry, but I don’t have ti now. Co back another day.」

The mont Rodis-san said that and tried to close the door, Rose quickly inserted her foot between the door.

The ability to take instant action, as expected of Rose.

I imdiately spoke of our business here, not wanting to waste the chance she has created.

「I have an important talk about the president – no, about Sie-san leaving Thousand Blade Academy.」

「Well, it’s… the thing called “family circumstances”. Sie decided to study abroad to learn swordsmanship. It’s not sothing you can interject into. Go ho.」

A response which is the sa as turning people away at the front door.

I judged that things will not progress as they were, so…

「-Political Marriage with Nuro Dolan.」

At that mont, his eyebrows twitched.

「Kisama, why do you…」

Rodis-san looked furious.

As expected, he does not seem to consent to the political marriage at all

「Though slightly, I am aware of the situation. Rodis-san, could you please tell us a little more?」

「…Enter.」

He said and opened the door.
