I Married the Beautiful Female Protagonist In Order To Survive - Chapter 941
57. We Meet Again
Even with the help of the Queen, it now seems… this “change” journey to the Rosia Empire may not be as easy as I initially thought.
With the connections prepared by the Queen, I indeed don’t need to hide in the Rosia Empire, seeking ways to meet Letty, but this time another “trouble” appeared—the news I heard from Miss Leyeve about Letty in “this era” indicates that the “original” Letty might not be a little girl who easily listens to others.
So, let’s talk about Letty’s current state later. In any case, I must first find a way to see “Letty in this era.” As for “reminding” her of anything, I’ll deal with it then.
With this thought, I quickly, with Leyeve’s help, was able to go to the most famous academy in the Rosia Empire—Lubyanka Academy.
The next day, at this moment, inside Lubyanka Academy.
For me, this is not the first time I have come to this famous academy in the Rosia Empire. The reputation of Lubyanka Academy is not only well-known within the Rosia Empire, but even other countries have recognized the “high quality of education” at this academy. The most direct example is: Kefir studied abroad at this academy, not in the Great Ying Empire, and the Queen’s most trusted inspector, Moriarty, also disguised herself as a professor at this academy to investigate various intelligence about the Rosia Empire.
But this time… the situation is different. Not only has Kefir been replaced by Louis XXIII, but Professor Moriarty also does not exist, which gives me a sense of “unfamiliarity.”
“This is the main campus of Lubyanka Academy. Ahead are some training areas. Ah… don’t mind those shirtless guys fighting over there, they are just warming up.”
Of course, Reyev doesn’t know my thoughts. This big sister is acting as a tour guide, enthusiastically explaining things to me. Meanwhile, Ludwig’s gaze has been fixed on those shirtless Rosian strongmen fighting in the distance since the beginning.
“What are you looking at?”
By the way, Your Highness, do you know that because you, this “beautiful girl,” are staring at them, those rough guys are getting more excited and fighting harder?
“Just looking for anyone who might be ‘eye-catching.’ Here… there are quite a few people who could be worthy opponents~”
Ludwig said happily, not afraid of trouble.
However… while she is happy, I am not so happy.
Although this is not my first time at Lubyanka Academy, the feeling this time… is it because no one knows me anymore, so they treat my appearance with the warmth of a stranger? I always feel… compared to the Lubyanka Academy in my memory, the current academy has a sense of “danger.”
Unfriendly? Not really, it should be more appropriate to say “tense.” It makes me feel as if I am not walking into an academy, but breaking into a… military camp.
Reyev’s continued introduction interrupted my thoughts. The changes at Lubyanka Academy also caught me off guard, and her “introduction” as a tour guide helped me a lot.
“You have just arrived at Lubyanka Academy, and you might find the atmosphere a bit uncomfortable. In fact, the management here has always been very strict. As long as you don’t do anything out of line, there won’t be any danger. Personally, I quite like this atmosphere~”
“Also, I am actually the president of the student council at this academy. That being said, since you are here with me, please don’t wander around. As you can see, if you wander around this academy, you might encounter quite a few dangers. If a fight breaks out, it will be hard to handle.”
I completely agree with this point. After all, just as Reyev reminded me, my script indeed popped up with [Euclid was shot dead for being mistaken as a suspicious person for wandering around].
“No problem, I wasn’t in the mood to wander around anyway.”
After a pause, I asked, “So… where is Empress Letty now?”
That being said, I actually know: if Letty is staying at Lubyanka Academy, she is basically holed up in the principal’s office, occupying the principal’s position. However, if I just barged in, based on my understanding of Letty, the first thing I would encounter would definitely not be Letty’s welcome, but Letty’s bullets.
Letty doesn’t know me now, so to have a proper excuse to meet her, I can only ask Reyev for some help.
“I don’t know Empress Letty’s movements either. Sometimes she runs around the academy, and sometimes when you want to find her, you will be scolded by Lord Rasputin, who takes care of Empress Letty. I just think that Empress Letty might be staying at the academy recently, so I brought you here to try your luck.”
As she spoke, Leyev leaned in, her curiosity piqued, expressing her undeniable gossiping nature.
“After all, the woman from the Great Ying Empire… that Louise XXIII’s ‘disgrace’ is big news, isn’t it? I got the scoop first, and her official expulsion news will probably be announced to the whole school soon~ So… Mr. Li De, was that woman really faking her double eighth rank? Although it’s frustrating, she was quite strong before.”
I glanced at this Rosia girl. At this moment, there was a hint of schadenfreude on Leyev’s face, but… that’s human nature, I suppose. Besides, that Louise XXIII was indeed not a good person.
“Her previous strength was temporarily boosted by drugs. If you think about it carefully, you can probably sense it: she probably needed an excuse to leave for a while before each battle, and that was actually her going to ‘take a hit’.”
As I watched Leyev nodding vigorously beside me, I asked, “Why, is this news making you so happy?”
“Shh!”
She hurriedly grabbed my arm, raised her finger to her lips, and signaled me to lower my voice, “Of course I’m happy, or rather, all the women in our academy are happy. In fact… that woman, with her great strength and decent looks, was quite popular among the idiots in the academy.”
“……”
“Maybe you can’t understand that feeling, that no matter what she said, there was always a group of tengu…”
Stop it, I might not have understood it before, but now… it’s very clear.
Because…

In my line of sight, a group of uninvited guests appeared, and the person leading them was obviously coming for Leyev. This made me realize: it turns out that Louise XXIII wasn’t bluffing, she also had ‘tengu’ in Lubyanka Academy.
This is truly a case of birds of a feather flock together.
[Passerby S came to demand an explanation for Louise XXIII!]
The person in the lead quickly stormed up to Leyev!
“Leyev! What kind of trick did you pull on her, Brit!?”
