The Academy Needs a Real Education - The Academy Needs a Real Education chapter 116
Episode 116. ceryl (9)
In accordance with the emperor’s will, the Imperial Knights stationed at the Caldera Research Institute could only move under the orders of Seril and Frill.
Having shared the authority to control the scene of the incident with Seril, Frill needed to understand the situation at the research center, such as the size of the dispatched troops, special features, and nearby terrain.
There was no way Seryl would give her such information, so Frill, along with the seasoned Guardian Knights by her side, carefully grasped the scene and kept Seryl’s solo in check.

Virgo approached Frill, who toured the knight camps, met the dispatch leader, and listened to the troop status report.
“Now, the imperial knights will no longer regard Princess Frill as subordinate to the princess who will serve them.”
Even though it has recently been attracting attention for its remarkable growth in Kiruna… . From the point of view of the imperial knights, Frill was a princess who had no experience in moving troops and could not easily hand over leadership.
So, before the knights only followed the orders of the experienced Seril, they needed to show their presence as princesses like today.
“Did you see how the knights were so flustered? I guess I didn’t expect that to come out of my mouth.”
Frill’s expression was not bright when he was given heavy responsibility for the first time.
As I learned from Virgo, when asked what kind of countermeasures are prepared in case of an enemy attack.
The dispatched imperial knights showed only less than expected.
‘but.’
Frill couldn’t bear to point out the attitude of the knights even after seeing them.
From frills to monarchy, warfare, and mercenary art. It’s because I didn’t study hard like my older sisters and older brothers… .
Although the knights and scholars respected the authority of the emperor and the imperial family behind Frill, they did not even consider the situation in which Frill, as the leader, took the lead in giving orders.
“Until now, I have been trying to undermine my own authority… . If you look at the background of the imperial family, there is no way that the knights sincerely respect a child who has not achieved anything.”
Frill couldn’t stop blaming himself thinking that if he had steadily developed since he was young, he would at least become a strong fence and protect the people around him.
“I should have studied hard like the other older sisters and brothers… . With so many unknowns, can I stop Seryl?”
“Princess, the important thing is not the past, but the changing present and future direction that the princess will draw. It is not too late to accumulate knowledge from now on. However, finding the right direction and moving forward is not an easy task. The princess is doing well.”
“that’s… .”

Virgo smiled at the little master who couldn’t find an answer.
“Rather, if the princess tried to seize power too early like the prince or the third princess, she would have been severely checked by Princess Seril.”
“That’s right… .”
“Princess Frill, look around you. We are there, and there are valuable talents we met in Kiruna. Everyone is ready to fight together to the end no matter what enemy the princess faces… . It’s a precious relationship that won the princess’s heart.”
Fear makes people move easily, but if the monarch shows a slight gap, he quickly loses his prestige.
“Right now, Princess Seryl’s prestige seems to be spreading out of control… . Those who are by his side will leave at any moment when their forces are weak.”
If the support layer’s solid frills deal a fatal blow to Seryl even once… . Just as a castle made of sand collapses, Seryl’s reign of terror will come to an end.
Recalling the experience of confronting Euril, Frill nodded.
If everyone gathers strength like now, it will be an ordeal that can be overcome enough.
Frill, who was determined, spoke to the Guardian Knights.
“Let’s go back to our rooms now. I’m worried that everyone is hurt… .”

How many times did you almost lose your life in two days?
Especially when I was trapped by Prisoner 14’s unique magic, it really went blank.
“Even if I was a little late, I could have been in big trouble… .”
It wasn’t until Mina let out a sigh of relief and began to bandage my arm that I could sense that the crisis had ended.
I sincerely thanked her.
“Thank you for being alive, thank you.”
There were several colleagues who left for two days.
Death was no longer a distant story for me.
That’s why I was grateful that there was something I could do by surviving, and I was relieved that the sacrifices of those who went before did not fade away.
Mina sat in front of her and smiled as she watched the process of releasing the power that entered her body.
“It’s okay if you don’t thank me that much. I am happy enough just to be able to help the professor.”
“you… .”
“Because what the professor is doing is also what we want. This… . I’m not the only one who thinks that way, all the students who have learned from the professor feel the same way.”
So, asking for help from now on, Mina applied antiseptic to the cut on her neck.
“… .”
Strangely, I couldn’t separate my mouth from the sincerity of the warmly approaching students.
I can’t stay in this awkward silence forever.
“go-“
The moment I break the silence and try to answer something.
“Professor Ian, communication with Esca Castle has been completed.”
The surviving wardens arrived at the cabin and delivered the good news.
“I sent a report on the atrocities in the underground lab. They said they would invite representatives of other races to Esca Castle to hold a countermeasures meeting.”
And… . Lewen lowered her head, saying that she had been ordered to return to Esca Castle immediately tonight, so as not to leave any evidence that the guards had infiltrated the laboratory.
“I’m sorry I couldn’t be with you until the end.”
“no. You have worked hard so far.”
“If we get information about the outcome of the meeting or the trend of Eclipse, we will immediately share it with the professor.”
After that report, while the guards thanked Mina.
For those who couldn’t even properly treat their injuries due to fighting two days in a row, Carol and Dana, who brought many medicines and bandages, joined the cabin.
Finally, he returned to the frills that had been to the barracks where the knights of the imperial family were stationed.

“… After all, that’s how you create a coalition.”
Cheryl’s private room was plastered entirely in black.
The screen that covered the wagon was attached without the slightest gap.
“The different races secretly support Princess Frill and will try to sabotage the mana reduction theory research.”
With ten Guardian Knights silently guarding the door, Kegar knelt down in front of Seril.
There were very few people where Seril showed her true self.
In particular, she never revealed herself to her enemies, and the last time the second and third remembered her was probably the last time she was a 12-year-old girl.
Aside from the young attendant who stands by her side, the person she faces the most is Obama… . And it was frills.
“If I knew it would change like this, I should have imprinted fear on Frill just like I did with the second or third.”
Frill, who was so pure that it was hard to believe that they were the same princess, ignored all the warnings of her vassals and often approached her while she was living in seclusion and talked to her.
Seryl took off the brooch Frill had handed her to her as a child, which she had worn until yesterday, from her chest.
‘First sister! This is a birthday present. I picked it myself.’
‘… Youngest, I always hide myself, so what am I going to do with my appearance?’
‘Well… . You can look good to your dad. Also, my sister is still pretty, but she will be even prettier if she decorates.’
Now all the retainers are praising her name, but until then, she was receiving all kinds of curses from other nobles.
Rumors circulated that she was abandoned by God because theology students shunned her, and she lost her will to live and was drying up every day.
“I must have been blinded by the warmth that child showed then, for too long.”
Seryl’s life, which Obama had protected despite the criticism of her vassals, was painful enough that it would have been difficult to carry on if it had not been for the brief memories she had with Frill.
“… Things have already happened, so we have no choice but to bury the past.”
“… .”
“The frills are trying to build a force against the Eclipse with the support of the different races? Tell them to try it anyway. This is an empire of humans.”
From Frill’s point of view, it would be difficult to claim that Seryl has kidnapped people of different races and conducted biological experiments without clear evidence.
In the end, this meant that the two princesses had to continue their dark struggle like they did here… .
“How much can you block me in the imperial family, in Kiruna… . I look forward to it.”
Maintaining a kneeling position, Kegar asked with an unwavering face.
“How do you plan to proceed with this presentation?”
“There are a lot of eyes that see, so I won’t be able to work here again. but… .”
Kegar looked up into Seryl’s dark eyes.
“If the frills will soon form forces with the other races… . You can give them a light gift.”
Kegar kept his mouth shut for a moment, then looked down again and spoke.
“Princess. If you’re sending Rane into battle alone-“
“no. We plan to disclose research data on the child’s blood at this presentation.”
“… !”
Since the venue is the first tower, if the theory that is the core of mana reduction theory is revealed at this presentation, which is attracting more attention than any other year… .
“Although the other races will have to find out about our research. As long as the response has already started at Esca Castle, isn’t that something that will happen anyway?”
“However, open criticism from the different races-”
“do not worry. Kegar. It’s because I’m using Rane’s background to reveal the true face of vampires and guardian spirits to everyone.”
The fact that the innate Dipeln, Rane, has the trait of blocking the connection with the guardian deity.
It was conclusive evidence that the guardian deity that the different races worshiped was not an absolute being.
In order to hide this, the fact that the vampires imprisoned and tortured Rahne for over two hundred years and subjected them to cruel experiments will further drive their position to the bottom.
‘God is not perfect, and hides the cruel nature of vampires under Esca’s sideline.’
The moment Rane’s existence is revealed to the public, as God’s authority falls, the different races will be divided and humans will not fear God.
“Princess. By the way, if you reveal Rane’s research on blood and mana reduction theory… . Suspicions about the raids by the Dipels may rain down on us.”
“I have to admit some facts.”
“… ?!”
“However, no one can prove that we conducted a living experiment. We just need to claim that we rescued Rane from the Imperial Society, who was on a desperate run, and that the vampires chasing him seem to have been depelled.”
“If so-“
“I will have to apologize to the victims of the attack, and I can’t avoid some voices of criticism… . The opponent will suffer irreparable damage.”
What if the announcement on mana reduction theory followed with the statement that he did not expect that the actions he had taken to save the beings who had suffered for countless hours just because they were abandoned by vampires would bring about such a result.

Vampire Rane, who can suppress her vampirism, becomes a good victim, and other vampires and Esca become the worst offenders.
“If that happens, the criticism of the Imperial Academy’s poor response will gradually be wrapped up as unavoidable damage… .”
“… .”
“Even these guys won’t be able to get over it this time.”
