Became the Academy’s Weakest Bookkeeper - Became the Academy’s Weakest Bookkeeper chapter 45

Todok tododok.

Raindrops from the gray clouds hit the ground, creating puddles, and butterflies flying in the air were resting under the leaves to avoid the rain.

Among the resting butterflies with its wings flapping slowly, a man with an impressive tail was sitting in a chair and simply staring into the distance.

“..I like this feeling.”

Rommel was celebrating alone in a secluded place where no one was now.

After the counter-resistance was over, a place was reserved to celebrate the victory, but Rommel quietly left the place, perhaps unfamiliar with this kind of place.

A drunken Louis clings to his side, and Kurz makes no effort to pat him on the shoulder, leaving Rommel in a quandary.

The strong smell of alcohol in the air made my eyes sting, and all my classmates were drunk.

That’s why it’s worthwhile to sip wine alone like this right now.

Although the beer was extremely strong, I had no choice but to sip the wine because all the wines were produced in this area.

A bitter and sour taste at first, followed by a sweet taste.

A wine from Montegro where the flavor is completely alive in the mouth, so it must have been able to establish itself as an export item representing the empire.

” .. quite a bit.”

After passing the whole glass of wine over his throat, he sits still and watches the rain.

Now that the big event called counter-resistance is over, if you see the upcoming disciplinary action and big upheaval… Now you have to take enough rest to replenish your stamina.

“You may need a little rest.”

For several days during the counter-resistance, he rolled so hard.. His body was also crying that he needed a rest.

It wouldn’t be a bad idea to take this opportunity to rest.

“With this, part of the plan was completed.”

Having brought a small wave to the academy, it is now time to reveal the fish that hide their bodies as if they are breathing under the surface of the water.

A political battle over the imperial nobles and the imperial family.

1st prince.

second prince.

royal nobility.

And… I don’t know why, but a princess who likes me.

“It’s bullshit.”

The princes who fight political battles outside the water… are no big deal.

If the forces of the 1st prince were to be mobilized, it was clear that the 2nd prince would naturally block the 1st prince… so it was a temporary measure.

However, the problem is that the royal nobles have not yet fully revealed their power to the world.

On the surface, they were just a powerful aristocratic group, but things get complicated if they are deeply involved in the dark side of the Empire.

The primary goal is to drive out or reduce the imperial noble forces within the Montegro Academy, but in the long run, it was clear that the imperial nobles would become troublesome opponents.

“It’s really like a country.”

How to solve internal problems from the inside.

In the current situation that maintains a tight balance, if the princess jumps into the battle for the throne, the balance of power will collapse.

A pendulum inclined to one side inevitably invites external forces.

If great powers such as the Ottoman Empire or the Holy Ruth Empire begin to intervene in the Empire in earnest… the Empire will go down the road to destruction as it is.

“For now, let’s just think about driving out the royal nobles.”

If you work out the solutions one by one, you will see a way.

I drank all the last remaining wine after correcting my complicated and complicated mind.

I was feeling a little nauseous, but my stomach was a little sore.

Drinking alcohol after finishing one job was special.

While drinking wine and getting drunk like that, Hergé started walking in front of Rommel.

It was going to be raining heavily… Erje was taking all the raindrops pouring down from the sky with her body.

Herze, who was standing in front of Rommel, slowly opened her tightly closed mouth.

” ..you were alone.”

“..Princess?”

Thanks to the princess who suddenly appeared, Rommel put the wine she was drinking aside and put on a very embarrassed expression.

The princess has not been able to meet her recently because she has been busy with work.

I was a little reassured because I didn’t even come to the library, but I’m sure we’ll meet at a place like this.

Rommel made up his mind that he might be rude because of drunkenness and corrected his expression.

But… looking at the princess’s face, the princess’s condition was somehow strange.

As for the status of a princess, there must be an attendant, but the fact that she came alone through the rain.

and..

The atmosphere of the princess is quite different from before.

Previously bright and lively, now his eyes are out of focus, like a man who is overworked.

Rommel was tensed by the atmosphere of the princess and withdrew her body.

“I was looking for you, but you are here.”

“Why me…?”

” want to do.. “

Herze’s lips, who were about to say something, closed softly and slowly.

Her sparkling lips and her gaze looking down.

dripping.

The golden-colored hair of the princess suddenly became wet and wet from the rain, and water dripping through her hair wetted the floor.

Wet hair and school uniform.

And the white underwear that starts to show a little, but a little.

Rommel tried to turn away from the princess and fixed her head forward.

If I had seen the princess’s underwear, I could have been accused of blasphemy.

A moment of silence passes.

Hergé looked at Rommel and said.

” I’m sorry. “

” ..Yes? “

“Isn’t it because you suffered a lot because of me? You put a lot of pressure on Confucius Rommel, who did nothing wrong.”

Hergé’s expression, who was looking at Rommel’s face, suddenly… began to distort slightly.

I was forcing myself to hold back the emotions that were rising in my heart, but now it was the limit.

I wanted to show Rommel as a princess.

I wanted to show you as a master who can serve you.

When he felt the texture of the tears starting to form in the corners of his eyes, Erje slightly lowered his head.

He didn’t want to show Rommel how young he was, the look on his face that he was disappointed with his ugly face… I couldn’t help it.

” ..what happened to you.”

Rommel instinctively knew what had happened to the princess.

” no. “

Herje shook her head, denying Rommel’s words.

It was true that something had happened with the second prince, but Erje did not want to tell the truth.

Even if they are half-brothers, the second prince is his family and the prince of the empire.

I couldn’t tell anyone who didn’t know anything about what was going on in the palace.

If Rommel becomes his bookkeeper, he will tell you everything, but Rommel has not yet responded to his proposal.

Rommel, an ordinary citizen, could not be dragged into a bloody political battle.

Of course, what happened at the cafe at that time was Hergé’s fault, and Hergé admitted her mistake.

He did not want to lose the jewel of Rommel to the prince, and his ambition to become an emperor.

Because of that deep desire, Rommel… made a big mistake.

Therefore, Hergé formally bowed her head to Rommel.

“It just occurred to me… I’m not attracted to you, who has nothing to do with my greed. It seems like I’m starting to resemble people I hate so much.”

“…”

“At least, I didn’t want to be like those people, but I’ve been acting like them. I can’t stand it when I think about it like that…”

“You’re talking about princes.”

There was an intense emotion hidden in the words.

And Rommel could easily recognize who the princess was talking to.

I thought there was something wrong with the princess, but when I heard the story, it was more complicated than I thought.

Hergé looked up at Rommel as if she was a little surprised by Rommel’s words.

My eyes start to tremble little by little, and my hands start to tremble.

The princess’s reaction proved that the people Rommel spoke of were princes.

“How do you…?”

“Isn’t someone you don’t know more stupid?”

Rommel continued to speak while looking at Hergé, who kept her mouth shut.

“..what happened?”

thump thump thump.

There was a brief silence, and in the meantime, the rain was beating the ground.

Rommel waited for Herze’s answer, and Herze slowly began to open her mouth.

There was hesitation in the act, but Herje opened her mouth nonetheless.

“These are things that Confucius Rommel knows all too well. Countless concubines and princesses born between them… Who would like them?”

A victim of political warfare.

The princess, who knew nothing, entered politics without knowing it.

Losing her mother to protect her.

An innocent child without a mother had to survive on her own in the cold and cold imperial palace.

It would be rather fortunate that it didn’t grow crooked.

“It’s a common story, a weak princess who felt threatened by her stepmother and concubines. To them, I must have felt like a thorn in their eyes.”

“You worked hard among the pigs.”

“A pig…?”

“I persecuted a princess who didn’t know anything about making her own child emperor, so what is that other than a pig?”

“..pig..fufufu..that sounds right.”

Even though it was a little, Erje smiled with her body excited.

The words of Rommel, who instantly dismiss those who made him unhappy as pigs, were the first words he had ever heard in his life.

His life would be in danger if that story was passed on to those pigs, but I was very envious of Rommel, who said what he wanted to say without paying attention to his gaze.

Unlike himself, who lived only by noticing, Rommel lives freely by doing what he wants to do and say what he wants to say.

It was said that humans go out to find what they lack, and the princess was envious and nice of Rommel.

“Do you know that? Confucius? It was hard enough to die.. Hearing that from Confucius made me feel better.”

“I’m glad you did.”

Erje laughed. And Rommel laughed too.

Tears began to flow from the corners of Herze’s eyes, but that made her smile even more.

He says he’s fine, and this is nothing.

Your joke was very funny.

I will laugh until the tears left in my eyes evaporate and disappear.

With that determination, Hergé began to tell Rommel the true purpose of her coming here.

“..The introduction is long, anyway…I have something I want to convey to Confucius Rommel.”

“Anything you want to tell me?”

“..Yes, my brother..So the second prince will send someone to Prince Rommel.”

“What do you mean by that? No, why did the 2nd prince have a guy like me in the first place?”

Rommel was genuinely perplexed when he heard the story that came out of the princess’s mouth.

The second prince Rommel knew, Jejus, was a wild and ferocious prince.

Even though he is the second prince, he is supported by the knights, and a time bomb that has surpassed the position of emperor with abilities superior to his older brother.

The most dangerous person in the empire who never knew when it was going to explode was the second prince, Jejus.

How could such a person send someone to himself?

“…you saw the opposition. I think you were deeply impressed by how Prince Rommel knocked out Luis Garcia, the honor classmate there.”

” ..huh. Then why are you sending people to me?”

“It’s to enlist Confucius Rommel.”

” ..what if I say no?”

“You know better what will happen to you.”

As Hergé said, Rommel was well aware of what would happen if he rejected the prince’s offer.

be killed or

or expelled.

Prince Jejus was such a human being.

A tyrant who buryes his treasure in the sea when someone else has his treasure taken away.

Even if there was no guilt, it was clear that Rommel would be blamed for all kinds of sins.

“It’s an outlier.”

” ..I’m sorry. You’re suffering this kind of embarrassment because of me.

“It’s not the princess’s fault.”

” ..that’s how you say it.”

Rommel continued to deny the princess’s words of apologizing to him.

This was not because of the princess’s recommendation, but clearly because of his own mistake.

Should I have just passed the counterattack? no.

If it had been defeated in the counter-resistance, the first steps of the plan would have been twisted.

‘ Ask Edinburgh Rosé for help..? Nope. ‘

Although the Earl of Edinburgh was a powerful family, it could not be compared to the Imperial Family.

Even the princess in front of me can’t help solve the problem, and if I could help, I would have solved the problem sooner.

…then there was only one way.

Rommel turned his head toward the dying princess and said.

“Princess Byzante von Herge.”

” ..yes? “

The princess is embarrassed when she calls her full name.

Rommel continued talking while looking at the princess’s face.

“I would like to meet your Majesty the Emperor.”

“Yeah??”

Herze’s cute scream filled the small space.
