The Academy Needs a Real Education - The Academy Needs a Real Education chapter 115

Episode 115. ceryl (8)

The sunlight came down, drawing a vivid rainbow with the dew floating in the sky, refreshing the leaves that had been smeared with rainwater.

Even so, the overflowing sunlight spilled down to the floor, avoiding the shade of the trees and casting a shadow beside the overgrown grasses.

As the cool breeze from the train station brushed through the branches and flowers as if to tangle your hair, the shadows cast under the leaves and blades of grass, and the sunbeams between them, were shaken by the wind and danced dizzy.

On a clear day, like the sunlight shining on the ripples of a mirror-like lake… . The forest was shining in early summer.

In the middle of the greenery, which seemed to have been poured with flickering stars, Seryl felt dizzy.

‘As the barrier collapsed, the forest began to change rapidly. After all, this is a unique magic… ?’

All the personnel who searched the forest for the guards forgot Seryl’s orders and enjoyed the scent of peppermint.

The scent of summer, which was so lively that even the authority of the imperial family was forgotten for a moment, made even the princess, whom everyone feared, look small for an instant.

This was fatal for her, who always had to overwhelm those around her.

‘First of all, we need to control the number of people… !’

Hiding in the dark carriage, she shouted at the scholars and knights who forgot their manners and looked around.

“Who told you to stop the search?”

Everyone shut their mouths and bowed their heads at her command, but even Seryl could not terrify even the cicadas that sang the glory of the sun.

Covering up her ears to the sound of the bugs gradually raising their voices and the leaves rubbing against each other, Seryl ordered the imperial knights.

“I will go directly to the hotel to find out the situation. You guys are controlling people other than me and the Guardian Knights from leaving this forest.”

The Guardian Knights hurriedly drove the wagon at Seryl’s urging.

Inside the carriage, which rattled from speeding through the woods, Seryl bit her nails.

‘If I had just a little longer, I could have obtained the body of the warden and even caught Ian… !’

She wanted to scream at the feeling of something hot flowing from her chest, but Seryl suppressed the urge to boil with superhuman patience and clearly thought of the target to unleash this anger in her head.

No matter how much he thought about it, there was only one person who would dare to fight against him and save Ian’s party.

‘Frills… !’

The youngest, who became Ian’s puppet, is now starting to block Seryl’s path.

‘Yeah, I thought it would happen someday… . how now… ?’

Seryl never expected that Frill would come to help Ian so quickly.

The observers started looking for Kiruna’s presentation from tomorrow, and even those who said they would find the venue early to help prepare, were all bitten by themselves.

‘There’s no way that stupid kid made such a judgment on his own. Did Professor Ian break through the barrier and establish a contact?’

It was clear that Ian, who had anticipated an ominous situation even before the barriers spread in the research center complex, had asked Frill to come to the first tower a little earlier.

In the carriage, Seryl, who developed animosity towards the cunning Ian and the frustrating Frill… .

“What-“

Seeing the maknae who has become a completely different person, I forgot what to say for a moment.

* * *

A large hole was punched in the outer wall of the hotel standing tall on the other side of the frill.

Only butterflies were hovering around the explosion site where the guards had escaped earlier, while Prisoner 14 was sleeping with a comfortable face at the feet of the frill.

“… First sister.”

Next to a girl with a huge butterfly perched on her mint-colored hair and a blond boy with countless mathematical formulas drawn on the floor, all of Seryl’s soldiers lay unconscious.

“Tell me. Why did you do this?”

“Frill, you… .”

Although I was embarrassed by Frill’s boldly questioning himself.

“To think that you could use the articles that Obama gave you, as you please… !”

More than anything, it wasn’t her friends who embarrassed Cheryl… . They were the Guardian Knights.

With their swords drawn, instead of covering the frills from the assassins… . Ian was guarded.

‘How did you do it?’

The Guardian Knights were those with high loyalty to the Emperor among the Imperial Knights, and since they only moved to protect the Imperial family, even Seril could not be easily handled.

‘By the way, those who even I failed to recruit… . Frill, you?’

Virgo, one of her guardian knights, took the place of Seryl’s answer to the question posed to Frill.

“We judged that the decision we made would not be very different from what the emperor wanted.”

“Birgo. Since when did His Majesty’s faithful sword begin to move under the orders of other princesses? It wouldn’t be strange to refer this to a military tribunal right away… . If it were you, wouldn’t you know?”

“As much as I received the sword from the Emperor, I will be judged by him.”

“Kuh… .”

She knew better than Virgo how Abamama would deal with the Guardian Knight who, according to Frill’s wishes, tried to protect Ian from Cheryl’s privates.

‘but… !’

It wasn’t that Seril didn’t have any cards left.

“Frills… . I’m here to investigate the Dipel raid on behalf of Obama.”

“Know.”

Seryl shot at her, who did not shrink at all even in front of a row of guardian knights.

“You know!? You understand that you, a mere observer, are interfering with me, His Majesty’s agent, without permission-”

“I am not an observer. The same goes for my friends here.”

“What… ?”

Frill took out a rolled piece of paper from her bosom and unfolded it in front of her.

“It’s an appointment directly from the emperor. You asked me to help my sister to uncover the truth of the Dipel incident.”

“ha ha ha… ! to you?”

“If you don’t believe me, why don’t you try contacting me directly today?”

Frill’s hair fluttered in the wind as she stood in front of Cheryl, who was speechless.

Even when she entered Kiruna, she hated being blown by even the gentle breeze… . Now there was no shaking even in front of the strong wind.

“As Her Majesty’s agent, he brought a non-Imperial Knights soldier and tried to kill Kiruna’s professor for no reason. Bringing in unique magic executioners without permission, which can only be operated with direct approval from the emperor… . Before I report everything, hand over all troops right away.”

“… If you report it, what do you think will change? Your father may say that you are suspicious for a moment, but everyone around you will accuse you of being wrong, but until when will you-”

“No, there’s no way my dad wouldn’t believe me about Professor Ian.”

“My father had a professor like that-”

“Because I am both a disciple and a watcher of Ian Laver, a top secret researcher for the Imperial Family.”

“Imperial First Class Secret Researcher… ? Ha ha ha ha ha… !”

Laughter erupted from inside the carriage.

“Frill, I don’t know what happened at school, but you’ve grown quite a bit in the meantime. Okay, this time I’m going to leave.”

“… .”

“So far I… . I tried to place all the blame for sabotaging my work on Professor Ian. Because you think you’re being stupidly used by him. I was just going to get over it without touching it… .”

Seril said to Frill with sincerity.

“I know that there will never be a situation where they look at me as sisters.”

‘Frill, don’t go to this performance presentation. The cause of the attack has not yet been properly identified. It’s too dangerous.’

‘Dad, there’s someone waiting for me… . You’re by my side even after Birgo, I won’t get hurt. Trust me.’

Even after quite some time had passed since the phone call with Fril ended, the youngest daughter’s serious voice, which he had heard for the first time, did not leave Zer’s ears.

‘… Has Frill grown up like this already?’

He skipped the luncheon and thought about the frills. Then, after seeing the crystal ball brought by the attendant, he cautiously greeted him.

“Seryl, have you eaten?”

“… Obama Mama. I contacted you because I wanted to ask if it was true that you sent me here with the same mission as me.”

“hahahaha… . Looks like the youngest has already arrived.”

“… .”

Seryl’s expression darkened slightly.

It takes seven more hours by train from Kiruna to reach the first pagoda. However, if you look at the departure time of the train and the arrival time of the frill party, you can see that there is a difference of two hours.

‘Probably, with the royal edict at the forefront, he ran all the way to the first tower without stopping once.’

It was clear that his father had written an edict to Frill, and in fact, Frill was also attending the presentation, so there was nothing strange about it.

however… . The fact that he hadn’t told me about it just pissed me off.

“… You really entrusted Frill with the investigation of this case. It would have been nice if you had contacted me first before writing the edict.”

“Gee, are you offended?”

Zer-sama waved his hand as if to appease Seril.

“I didn’t send you a frill because I didn’t trust you. I feel sorry for you in the situation where you have to investigate the Dipel incident and run the event, so I want to lighten the burden for you-“

“You can do it alone! No, rather, it will be more difficult for me because Obama sent frills. If we disagree, there will be confusion as to whose orders the knights and others under the control of the imperial family should follow!”

“If the two of you have different opinions, it also means that you can arrive at the most ideal decision when you find a compromise. I want you guys to cooperate and compete with each other.”

“… That, after all, means that you don’t fully trust me.”

“Seryl… . If I hadn’t believed you, I wouldn’t have entrusted you with the investigation of this situation.”

He said to the first one, trying to smile as benignly as possible.

“Unlike the other children, Frill has never been in charge of the Empire’s major affairs before. I’ve never shown my ability to other vassals, so it’s always bothered me to hear bad things about it.”

In addition, she came out in such a way that she could be the eldest sister, but why couldn’t she? Zer-sama had no sharp justification to stop Frill’s dispatch.

Thinking that it would be okay to make his vassals see frills again on this occasion, he raised his hands against the youngest’s stubbornness.

“But still, wouldn’t you be much more seasoned in everything? Teach Frill a lot.”

“… Yeah.”

“Seryl. Aren’t you already entrusted with a lot of work, and don’t you have the support of many vassals? Don’t be too impatient.”

“… .”

“The praise for your abilities and qualities resonates even in my bedroom. No one doubts your abilities.”

Hiding the shadows created by excessive work, Zer-sama smiled at her daughter.

“This investigation could be a good opportunity to show other vassals your generosity.”

“Abama… .”

“I always believe in you guys.”
