92.
At that point, Abel also avoided his gaze.
“The snacks are delicious today.”
While saying that, he picked up the snack and put it in his mouth. Theodore looked at that and lightly shook his head.
“are you okay?”
What I ant was whether it was okay to have soone like that next to . Richt looked at Theodore who had beco serious and answered lightly.
“it’s okay. “Is there a reason why we found it today?”
Theodore was showing signs of nervousness at tis, unlike usual.
“You said last ti that you would beco my teacher if you achieved success in your class with Archduke Graham, right?”
“yes.”
Could it be that results have already been achieved? Richt glanced at Abel. Then she saw Abel smiling at her with a puzzled look on his face.
‘It doesn’t help.’
Richt turned his gaze and looked at Theodore again. He has the face of a young child who wants to show off sothing. And the prediction was not wrong.
“It paid off!”
Theodore chattered and talked about his achievents. He is said to have won a sparring bet with Abel. Even if Theodore was overflowing with talent as the protagonist of the novel, it would not have been an easy task. When she tilted her head without realizing it, Abel sighed and said.
“I fought without moving from my spot and with even one hand sealed.”
I don’t know why we ended up sparring under such conditions. But can we call that an achievent? While I was thinking about it, Abel added her words.
“The results are correct. “Compared to my peers, I have no rivals.”
That is correct. In the end, Richt had no choice but to accept Theodore’s proposal. It’s amazing that even though he was busy, he tried to learn sothing from Abel.
“I will be your teacher. “I don’t know what I can teach you.”
“really? “You’re not going to cancel, are you?”
Theodore’s face blood like a flower.
“of course.”
“Whatever happens?”
“of course. “So what’s the problem?”
I had that feeling.
“There is a little bit.”
Theodore hesitated and opened his mouth. Next to her, Abel was seen laughing out loud.
“I guess not a little bit.”
Abel continued speaking without even flinching even though Theodore was glaring at him.
“In order to beco a teacher of the direct lineage of the royal family, you must overco three hardships.”
“Three hardships?”
“It’s kind of a test. A test to see if this person is truly qualified to beco a teacher. “They say the process was quite complicated in the past.”
“How picky is it?”
Abel answered Richt’s question.
“If you are a prosecutor, there are related tests. Suppress bandits, make a mark in war, or fight and win against wild beasts.”
“Are you being picky?”
Ban asked back. If you want to beco a teacher of the royal family, don’t you have to do sothing like that? Richt had the sa thoughts as Ban.
“It sounds easy. But what if there is not one place to subdue bandits? Moreover, it was a ti of war. They say that the bandits of that era were much worse than they are now. So is war. “Being a teacher of the royal family is a position where one can wield greater power than one might think, so he was not recognized for any public achievents.”
Then it’s impossible. Richt quickly ca to a conclusion. If that was what was expected of a prosecutor, a similar level would be demanded of a civil servant. Unfortunately, Richt couldn’t use his body and wasn’t very intelligent.
“But these days, the standards are more relaxed than before!”
As if he had noticed Licht, Theodore quickly opened his mouth.
“That’s right.”
Abel also agreed with that.
“Compared to the past, the testing standards have beco significantly lower. Solving the test won’t be difficult. The problem is whether other nobles are just watching. “There will be very few crazy people who want to ss with Devine, but there won’t be any interference at all.”
If Devine is given the position of teacher of the crown prince, his power will beco stronger. There are probably quite a few people who disapprove of that. There are many ways to hide yourself and interfere.
‘It’s going to be a hassle.’
I don’t know why he, who was originally a villain, had to go that far in the first place. Thinking that, Richt turned his head and saw Theodore. I could feel the earnestness in his wet eyes as he looked at Richt.
“Licht.”
Watching that makes
feel weak. Okay, what if it gets a little annoying?
“I will try.”
When Richt said that, Theodore’s expression beca as bright as the sun.
“thank you. “I’ll do my best!”
There was a warm atmosphere between Theodore and Richt.
“good. “Then I’ll go with you.”
“what?”
An informal word flew out of Richt’s mouth without
even realizing it. Even though I know I should use polite language in front of others, it happens sotis.
“Even after all this, I am an excellent prosecutor. “It will help.”
Abel’s words were half-hearted and he continued.
“I will go too.”
Van was the one who was going to take
anyway. Still, I thought it was cute that he stepped forward and held Ban’s hand under the table. Then Ban flinched for a mont and then beca calm. At first glance, the ears are red.
‘I want to bite you.’
Should I bite it tonight? Richett looked at Van, who was behaving awkwardly, and thought about the coming night.
Theodore tried to make the test as easy as possible. He also received help from Abel, so the difficulty of the test went down infinitely. Of course, there were no problems at all.
“Do I have to go outside and take this test?”
Abel clicked his tongue after taking the prescribed test.
“I tried to resolve everything internally, but the opposition from the nobles was strong.”
“It’s not like you don’t understand.”
Is soone who stays in the castle and sharpens his skills truly helpful as a teacher? The Empire thought otherwise. Whether a prosecutor or a scholar, he believed that he could teach future emperors by knowing the external situation. For that reason, one of the three exams had to be taken outside.
“He just didn’t want to back down from this one.”
It was a pity for Theodore, who had tried to resolve everything at the imperial castle, but it could not be helped. Because it was a rule of the empire that had been handed down for a long ti.
Abel tapped the paper with his finger.
‘It’s subtle.’
Since there was a territory that was originally guarded, they could not bring all the troops. It only had the minimum number of troops to help Crown Prince Theodore. Among them, how many people can be removed for Licht? It may not be as much as you think.
‘Of course he is Devine.’
Devine had enough strength to protect himself. The Leviathan Knights, one of the best knights in the empire, the Shadow Knights who walk in the dark, and a large number of nobles and troops belonging to the dukedom.
Unless Richt drops everything and runs away alone like last ti, they will try to protect their family head. There is no danger. But what is this feeling?
‘I feel dirty.’
Abel racked his brain to find the reason.
‘Lundel Empire.’
It was the force currently considered the most dangerous. It is also possible to attack Richt when he goes outside.
‘Let’s imagine that the Rundel Empire sends people to attack.’
Is that a threat? The answer ca quickly.
‘It’s not a threat.’
This was because Devine had great power. To hunt a large beast, a large number of hunters are needed. They said that at least there had to be soone skilled enough to break through the knights and kill Richt.
‘You can’t do that.’
If you don’t want war, you can’t have that many people in Glytein. No matter how ssed up the current situation is, Glytein is definitely an empire. If he moved a lot of people, there was no way they wouldn’t know about him.
In the end, Abel stopped thinking there. Be prepared. But she doesn’t worry too much. She felt like that was the best she could do for now.

“Yes.”
Richt lay down on Van’s thigh and enjoyed the wind blowing from sowhere. To be honest, Ban’s thighs were hard and thick, so it was very uncomfortable to use as a pillow, but it didn’t matter.
When I open my eyes, I see a lovely face. I decided to endure a little discomfort.
[Aren’t you uncomfortable?]
At that ti, the spirit sitting on the back of the sofa asked.
[The neck is broken.]
[If it breaks any further, won’t it die?]
[really? You can’t die!]
There is a lot of ddling. Even if your neck is broken this much, you won’t die.
[Why are you doing this?]
The spirit persistently asked. I tried to ignore it, but it asked in a way that made it difficult to ignore. Like why? He seed like a child whose ti had co.
“Because I can see Van’s face clearly.”
When I answer bluntly, the spirit tilts its head.
[Then wouldn’t it be better to lie down on the other side?]
on the other way? Richt thought about it. Half of him was lying down with his thighs resting on his seated body. In addition, I briefly touched his own thighs. It was soft and perfect for lying down with your head on.
‘Why didn’t I think of that?’
As Richt tried to get up, Van quietly raised his hand and pressed his forehead. The half-rising body falls back. As I blinked in surprise at the sudden action, Ban looked embarrassed. She seed to have moved without realizing it.
“why?”
While asking a question, Ban touched his forehead with his hand. Van pursed her lips before spitting out her words as if she were confessing.
“I don’t want to fall.”
Oh, I pushed it because I didn’t want to fall. I see I don’t know how everything he does is so cute. Richt laughed and stood up again. And this ti he climbed onto Van’s thigh.
As I wrapped my arms around his neck and held myself close, I could hear his heartbeat.
Thump thump thump.
The corners of my mouth went up at the particularly loud sound.
“Do you like
that much?”
“great.”
The answer ca without hesitation.
“ too.”
Richt kissed Van’s cheek.
“I like you too.”
My heart beats more violently. I was wondering if it was okay to run like this. As she was quietly appreciating it, her classmate’s arms wrapped around Licht.
The spirit seed to want to say sothing, but Richt put his index finger to the center of his lips.
‘Shh.’
Fortunately, the spirits also beca more aware. He nodded and flew out. I’m glad to spend ti just the two of us.
“When I step down from this position in the future, I want to live quietly in a small mansion.”
“I want to go with you too.”
“Of course we should go together. “I’m not good at housework.”
I know how to bake cookies and bread, but I haven’t been able to do that for a long ti. Even when I was running a bakery, most of it went through half of the work.
“I am good at it. So it’s okay.”
“That’s a good thing.”
Richt hugged Van tightly and closed his eyes. He dread of a peaceful future.
