“Sorry, it failed.”

Can the person who reports that the assassination failed have such a bright face?

Selena, who never imagined he wouldn’t be able to kill Haxen, looks at her Rai with a blank expression.

She

If you listen to her expression and words, she says that she made a slight mistake, but she is a failed assassination attempt.

Rai, who said that he had failed with a bright expression on what he shouldn’t have failed even if he was caught, casually goes through her cupboard and takes out her cookie and eats it.

Selena, who is so same as usual, even more dumbfounded by the sameness, she looks at Rye, unaware that her ink is smearing because the pen keeps touching the papers.

“You failed?”

“Yes, the resistance was stronger than I thought. I withdrew because I couldn’t get stuck.”

Rye was good to me, right? With a nuance, she says.

Selena, who has Dion’s authority, can know everyone’s location as long as she is inside the Academy.

When Rai left her academy, she was pursued by Philia, and by the end of the weekend, it wasn’t hard to guess that she was related just because the two of them had moved in together.

It was Selenas who already knew from Layla’s report that Philia noticed Rai’s identity.

However, she did not think that it would affect Rai’s actions, so she was taken aback by the unexpected results.

Noticing that the ink is smearing on someone’s carefully written report, Selenas puts her pen aside and leans back against the back of her chair.

She may be in a comfortable posture for her own sake, but when you look in front of her, she looks uncomfortable.

“Philia… Is that child dear to you?”

She has good grades and her skills are growing greatly, so she is considered a promising player, Philia, but she can’t stop the demons of all countries with just that.

Selenas realizes that she did not stop Philia with her power, but in some other way, and she asks meaningfully.

“Well, wouldn’t I be a precious person to him? It’s uncomfortable even though I’m so popular. I can’t act recklessly anywhere.”

Seeing Rai laughing while eating her cookies, Selenas frowns at her as she grabs her forehead in pain.

I don’t know what happened when I went to Baran, but one thing is certain.

There was no Lai anymore who would listen to anything he gave an order.

It’s crucial that she doesn’t accept that she can’t act recklessly.

I’m talking back, but she’s telling me to only work as an instructor, which I asked for when I first signed the contract.

He didn’t say what would happen to him if he ignored his warning, but he was no one who wouldn’t be afraid of the demons of the world running rampant.

Selenas sits casually on the sofa and watches Lai yawn.

‘What about that child changed him like this…’

She doesn’t seem to listen to anyone, but unexpectedly, she strictly follows the instructions from above.

I don’t know if it’s because he’s been chained to the children of the grave for too long, or if it’s his beliefs as a knight, but no matter how much he curses and sarcasm, when an order is given, he faithfully carries it out.

Of course, I ordered the imperial army to take possession of the land like Dukan Plain, but there is a record of making the plain itself uninhabitable. Was

It feels like the devil’s wish, as it is nicknamed, as much as the instructions are fulfilled no matter the outcome.

All orders given by Selenes so far have been followed without questioning them.

But since I went out with Philia, my attitude has changed, albeit subtly.

In the mood that he won’t do anything he doesn’t want, Selenas smiles a little.

This will reduce his political standing, but his change has been a pleasant one.

However, I wished that it was myself and not Philia who had that influence, but it was a good thing for him anyway, so I had to accept it.

“Yes, I understand. And from today, don’t eat cookies.”

Ray, who was casually eating cookies, looked at Selenas in surprise.

The failed assassination was said casually, but when the cookies were banned, he had an unfair expression as if he lost one of his last names.

“Isn’t that too mean? To confiscate cookies no matter how wrong you are.”

“I’ve been wanting to tell you for a long time. Did you know that one gold coin is in an envelope?”

“Wow… I thought it would be expensive because it was delicious, but it was filthy expensive. If you add up what I’ve eaten so far, I could buy a mansion.”

At Selena’s words that an envelope the size of two fists is equivalent to a month’s salary for a regular worker, Rai widens his eyes and sees the envelope in his hand.

“It’s originally a snack prepared to treat a special guest. It’s expected that the academy’s budget will decrease a lot in the future, so we need to cut back on expenses.”

Selenas laughs, saying she’ll be on a tight budget.

The meaning hidden in the words was that the academy was also affected because the assassination failed and the position was reduced.

Rai looks at the cookie in his hand and tries to put it back into the bag.

“Please open the envelope. I can’t serve it to other customers anyway.”

Rai quietly raised his hand again and ate the cookie, then got up from his seat while watching Selena’s eyes.

“Then I’ll have to go somewhere and get some money for cookies.”

“I can’t gamble.”

“Eh- I don’t have a place to make a lot of money without that.”

Expresses her displeasure, but Selena smiles at her and shakes her head in no.

When Rai left the academy director’s office and tried to return to her house, Sierra was waiting for her.

As soon as Sierra, her instructor per class A, sees Rai, she walks with her bobbed hair that seems to have been cut with a knife rhythmically.

“Here you are. Instructor Rai.”

“Yes, I see you’ve been waiting for me.”

Rai, who knows her identity thanks to her stupid intelligence agent, greets her with a smile.

“Where did you go for the weekend?”

“Yes, I went to training with the academy students.”

“Training… Is it?”

“Yes, it’s training. Since you’re an instructor, you shouldn’t do something different from the academy students, right? It’s training.”

Ray makes a subtly s*xual joke, but Sierra doesn’t react.

“But how did you know? Did you come over for the weekend?”

According to Agnes, she said that no one approached the house.

Although she can’t come out of the basement during the day, she spreads a sense of humor around her and checks on everyone who comes to her house.

Abigail and Zeroa were the only people who came home over the weekend, and both returned from training in the garden.

“Yes, I went for a while to take care of the interim payment of the monthly report to Vice President Bright.”

She was originally supposed to be the instructor in charge, but Rai left everything to Sierra.

She thinks it’s a pretty good answer, but regrets that she didn’t notice Agnes’s feelings, Lay nods her head and accepts Sierra’s report.

“That’s great. I’m glad the instructor Sierra took care of me.”

“Thank you for the compliment.”

She pretends to read it and passes it over, and Sierra answers with her usual answer.

As soon as she received it, she handed it over without even checking it, so this was enough for a nobleman.

“You are very sincere to return it by the weekend and train with the academy students.”

Is this a spinoff, she ponders for a moment, but Lai, who thinks she’s guiding her to find out what she’s been up to over the weekend, makes up her long-winded story.

While she is talking to Sierra and heading to her house, this time Layla comes to visit.

“Instructor Sierra. Would it be all right if I talk with Instructor Rai for a moment?”

“It’s okay. I had to go see the deputy principal anyway, so I was thinking of breaking up now. Don’t mind me and I hope you two can talk.”

From the beginning, the two of them were stiff, but after learning that she is an agent of the intelligence department, a subtle tension pervades the conversation.

As the expressionless Sierra bows and steps away, she smiles at Raiga Leila, who was staring at her back.

“Popular men are tired.”

“Stop talking nonsense and follow me.”

Leila doesn’t accept her Rai’s joke and turns around and walks ahead of her.

As she comes to a place where her people are rare, Layla who cast her soundproofing magic looks at Rai.

“Why? I don’t have anything more to say about Haxen. Anything new?”

Lai, who had already told Leila everything except Filia before reporting to her academy principal, put a smile on her eyes.

However, Layla’s expression did not go away, and Lai’s expression, which had been looking at her with a smile, gradually relaxed and became expressionless.

She was originally a cold person who didn’t like jokes, but now her expression was quite serious.

“What are you trying to say?”

“The Marquis of Joshua Demo Farianesa has gone missing.”

Surprised by her words, Rai opens her eyes wide.

“What? Is Joshua a marquis? He was the son of a viscount.”

“……Does it matter?”

“It’s important. Didn’t that bastard raise his status with the ball I caught? That’s two steps? The empire is begging for mercy, did he defeat any dragon? Thanks to me, he became a marquis, but pretending not to know and wiping his mouth is a shame. .”

Layla sighs as she thinks that her point of surprise is different from hers.

“I’m done talking about status, Marquis Joshua is currently missing.”

“Looks good. This bastard knows he’s proud, and he doesn’t even know grace.”

Rai, who was cursing Joshua, shuts her mouth as Layla’s eyes grow fierce.

As she felt awkward, Rai looked at her and said cautiously.

“So, she went missing?”

“Joshua Marquis belongs to the intelligence department. Talking about her disappearance in the intelligence department is the same as saying that she died while on duty.”

“Hmm… Really?”

“You’re not as surprised as I thought. Do you know anything?”

Leila knows that Joshua is in contact with Rai.

She has a sensibility that she can’t understand, but she seemed to be on good terms with Joshua, who had been infiltrated as her spy.

“Nothing. He doesn’t talk about himself. Even if he does, more than half of him is stupid. He was born as a spy.”

“You really don’t know anything? I’m not surprised by that.”

“I was surprised? He’s a Marquis… Okay. I’ll pass on that.”

When I try to mention her identity again, Leyla’s eyes come to life.

“No surprise. They said there was no body.”

“The bodies of the knights and agents who guarded him were found. It is assumed that he was attacked while returning from a mission…”

“Ah- ok, ok. I don’t want to hear the gruesome description of the murder scene.”

Rai deftly shook her hand and interrupted Leyla.

“Joshua says she’s probably alive.”

“How are you sure?”

“My lieutenants aren’t that weak.”

Rai smiled at her and met her gaze.

It was strange that he still called Joshua, her spy, his lieutenant, but it was also strange that he trusted her infinitely.

“Even though Marquis Joshua has been away from the battlefield for a long time, I know that his skills are great. But it is not known who attacked him, but the enemy must have known his skills well and set up a trap. The escort knights prove that.”

Layla explains the situation, but Rai still doesn’t worry.

“Do you know what my lieutenants have in common?”

“…… Mobile tactics?”

“It’s similar. But it’s wrong. I’m best at running away.”

It was a funny thing to say that he was the best at running away from demon troops in all countries that had only won the war.

But Rai was serious.

“We’ve always lacked soldiers and knights. The easiest tactic to use in such a situation is just hit and run as you said. I’ve gone hand in hand to the enemy camp and then ran away happily dozens of times. The one without it couldn’t have survived in the first place.”

Rai laughs and talks about the dangerous situation.

The anecdote in which the demons of all nations lead their men and infiltrate enemy lines in small groups is so famous that not only Layla but everyone who has studied tactics knows it.

A typical example is the battle with the unique Bell Union, which was created by combining several countries, but each operated like an independent country.

It is said that the record of winning a surprise attack on the allied forces, which seemed to have been dispatched from different countries even though they were the same alliance, with less than 100 people is the war with the least damage among all previous battles.

At night, the devil of all nations, dressed as a knight from one of the alliances, ran rampant in one of the headquarters of the dispersed alliance, dragged the soldiers pursuing it, and hit the other headquarters.

The guards who had no way of knowing the situation seemed to have betrayed them, so they launched a counterattack, and the situation spread to the deaths of the Bell Alliance. The demons of all nations roamed the main bases one after another, taking only 14 allied casualties and sweeping the main base of the Bell Alliance.

In the morning, the situation was rectified, but all they could see were numerous casualties and a messed up base.

The Bell Union, unable to wage war, withdrew and the Kingdom Army was able to achieve victory without doing anything.

At Rai’s words, Layla recalls a war called ‘Bell with Eyes Closed’.

“No body was found? So either it ran away or it was captured. That means it’s still alive.”

As if he had finished what he had to say, Rai turns around and leaves.

“Whatever your master does, you’d better assume Joshua is alive. He’s so cunning he can’t be caught off guard.”

After Rai leaves after saying something that doesn’t know if it’s a compliment or a curse, Layla is left alone and seriously contemplating.
