rest after incident

three days later.

Yuria was knocking on the door of the dean’s office.

The uncomfortable feelings were revealed on Yuria’s face without even thinking about hiding it.

“come in.”

Hearing a languid voice from inside, Yuria opened the door and entered the dean’s office.

Spacious and clean interior.

Except for the medals and medals bestowed by the emperor, the dean’s office was devoid of decorations.

There, I saw a man watering a bonsai.

The blond man, who looked to be around twenty-five now, smiled at Yuria’s visit.

The man was carefully watering a small bonsai

“It’s a big deal that you came on time when I called. YuRia.”

“…I didn’t come because I wanted to come.”

YuRia said sharply and stood in front of the dean.

Dean, Duke Bradley Bruno.

This man was YuRia’s uncle, and when the current emperor, YuRia’s father, ascended the throne, he was also the only surviving direct lineage of the previous emperor.

Although he looks very young in appearance, he is actually well over 40 years old.

Having been chosen by a higher-ranking Constellation who controls time, he was maintaining his youth as a blessing.

“By the way, are you really planning on raising it?”

Yuria looked at the bonsai the man was watering in disgust.

A twisted, bony tree. I couldn’t tell from where the tree came from.

“Magi are all purified. You can think of it as growing a tree with a slightly unique appearance. My room looks so lonely, so I thought it would be nice to put one more plant in it.”

YuRia looked around.

Placing that bony plant didn’t seem to make this bland room suddenly look lively.

“Then shall we move on to the main subject?”

“yes.”

The atmosphere in the room was just fine.

YuRia nodded and sat down at Bradley’s recommendation.

“It looks like a new troublemaker has entered our academy. you know that?”

“…”

YuRia let out a small breath.

Because it was obvious who he was talking about.

“Leonhard Danehart. This is the name you want to say, right?”

“right. He said he’s been doing great things lately. Rumors spread.”

While saying that, the dean opened one of the briefcases and looked into it.

“Agreement rate of 88%… . This is a huge number too. There is also a record that the stone was completely crushed during the second evaluation. And the accident that happened during the third evaluation… .”

The dean opened the briefcase and handed it to Yuria.

“Even I would faint.”

With a pounding heart, Yuria gently unfolded the briefcase in her hand.

There was a report written by Roman, the professor in charge of the first year magic department.

The reports written about the first and second rounds were surprising, but… .

3rd test.

I had heard the report, but I didn’t expect it to be to this extent.

Let’s just say that Leonhard, a wizard, seriously injured Baltan, his half-brother who could use an aura.

In the first place, he had to be beaten because he was cocky. It seemed that his uncle thought the same.

However.

‘…This is probably.’

Yuria found a report about the ＜The Labyrinth of Deception＞ that had been polluted by the Crow King in the forest and its release.

A total of five students fell into the maze of deception.

And among them… . Surprisingly, five people survived.

In other words, everyone survived.

“One boy’s performance there was particularly noteworthy.”

The boy Bradley was talking about was, of course, Leonhardt.

“They say it wasn’t me who lifted the Crow King’s Corruption Zone. Other professors also said that the two saints were active. But I guess I’m just weird.”

“Why?”

YuRia asked back, slightly nervous.

“If the saintess’ power was used, there would have been traces of strong divine power. But that’s where it is. Do you know what happened?”

“Just tell me quickly.”

“There was no trace. As if the place was swept away by an unknown force.”

“…Can you believe you have that kind of power?”

Even as YuRia said that, she was nervous. Leonhardt had that much power.

The boy who moved surprisingly quickly in ‘Nice Kid’s Room’ and the incident involving a girl named Livia.

And Leonhardt wanted to hide his strength.

Recalling Leonhard that day, Yuria calmly suppressed her heart, which began beating without control.

A water-colored girl lying on her face and crying, and a boy kissing her wet forehead.

‘too bad.’

Yuria couldn’t believe Leonhardt’s actions.

I confessed to myself, and immediately flirted with another woman.

Moreover, lately, even his own henchmen seemed to like Leonhardt more.

‘In that sense too!’

A man with a charm that attracts both men and women.

To YuRia, Leonhard had that kind of impression recently.

I hated it. I felt like I was going to die of hatred. Even the jealous himself.

“It might have that kind of power, I think. Yuria. do you really know nothing Were you close with that kid?”

Yuria barely came to her senses at her uncle’s question.

No matter how much I hate Leonhard, it’s not that I hate him.

If Leonhardt didn’t want to be found out, Yuria intended to protect Leonhardt.

“It happened when I was young. We’ve only met a few times now.”

“Oh yeah? this.”

Bradley stroked his lower jaw in embarrassment.

Then, as if thinking of a bright idea, he pointed at the sky with his index finger.

‘I’m anxious!’

YuRia remembered very well that Bradley would make bombastic remarks whenever he did that.

“Then let’s do this.”

And sure enough.

“You take that child to the student council and keep an eye on it. And if you have any clues, contact me.”

“yes?”

YuRia opened her eyes wide and looked at her uncle.

This… what do you say?

“I do not like it!”

Yuria shouted loudly as if she was about to jump up from her seat.

Bradley couldn’t help but be surprised. Wasn’t Yuria the one who was so interested in power and power?

“yes? why? If we accept Confucius from the Duke of Daneheart into the student council, the position of the student council will be stronger.”

“that is… No.”

His face was heating up little by little.

We confessed and broke up, but to see each other every day at the student council.

Then, what if you even brush your fingertips?

How can only the two of us remain, and then when we start confessing our feelings to each other.

‘no!’

Just before the poker face he had maintained collapsed.

‘Wake!’

Yuria barely came to her senses.

“That child… It has too much presence. Ability is good too. If I accidentally accepted it into my student council, it might rather dissipate morals.”

“Well, that is strange. Since you’re like that, I thought I’d rather get you into the student council and overpower it in advance.”

Bradley’s judgment was correct.

If it wasn’t Leonhardt, but another child, it would have been.

But what Bradley was talking about was Leonhardt, not anyone else.

Bradley did not hide his troubled expression.

“Then, let’s make a deal at this point. If you accept this request, I will be your political supporter.”

“…yes?”

Then Yuria opened her eyes wide.

If the current dean of the academy becomes a political supporter, Yuria’s political standing will increase at once.

It was an unconventional proposal for Yuria.

“Why is that… ?”

“I am sure The boy has something.”

Bradley grinned.

His extraordinary brain seemed to have already deduced the correct answer.

“I’ll ask you just one thing. YuRia, hold only the last tail.”

It was an offer that was hard to refuse.

YuRia began weighing what would be better between the racing heart she would experience facing Leonhardt in the student council room and political gain.

result… .

‘things will work out?’

An ambiguous answer uncharacteristic of Yuria flowed from her head.

It was because of Leonhardt’s involvement that the string of reason was blurred, and because of Bradley’s proposal, which was too tempting.

“Okay. I will try.”

YuRia nodded her head sadly.

Bradley laughed and patted Yuria’s shoulder lightly.

“I’m counting on you.”

After that, Yuria left the dean’s office after briefly sharing her current situation and miscellaneous things.

Of course, Yuria had no intention of just taking Leonhardt’s tail and offering it to her.

‘Let’s discuss with Leonhardt later and pass on only the smallest things.’

In order to do that, we can talk alone in a quiet place, right?

‘In a quiet place… two… ?’

YuRia covered her face with both hands to cover her blushing face.

“What if I kiss you?”

YuRia muttered very quietly.

Originally, it was so small that no one could hear it.

But in fact, Yuria is basically unlucky.

To the point where a student who happened to be hearing very well due to a side effect of the drug overheard her words while passing by YuRia.

Shortly thereafter, a rumor spreads around the academy that there is a man Yuria passionately loves.

Who that man is and who he really is becomes one of the biggest topics in the academy.

Of course, Yuria, who was unaware that there was someone overhearing, focused on a thought that suddenly came to her mind at the word alone.

On the day the Raven King’s contaminated area appeared, Yuria was taken aback by the sudden change and hurriedly ran all the way to the forest.

It was then that Yuria met eyes with Nias as she ran into the forest.

“Help! majesty!”

Saying that, Yuria couldn’t bear to reject the girl’s eager eyes.

Yuria clearly remembered the part where Magi dropped Nias right in front of the barrier, avoiding the professors who were dismantling the barrier.

“It is difficult beyond here. Margie… .”

But then a surprising thing happened.

Nias rushed towards the barrier made of demonic energy before Yuria could finish her words.

“Thank you!”

As the startled Yuria tried to stop her, Nias passed through the demonic energy of that calamity.

‘I thought he was dead… .’

Nias was alive.

Although she wasn’t listed as one of the five survivors because she sneaked out again, Yuria certainly witnessed the sight.

‘More than Leonhard… Nias. What is the identity of that child?’

Yuria remembered a few years ago.

The black-haired girl who desperately dragged Leonhard, who had fought Klujak at such a young age and was covered in blood, using her equally battered body.

Yuria still remembered the dim fear she felt at that moment.

‘Suspicious.’

Perhaps it was Nias, not Leonhard, who should be followed now.

Yuria began to have such doubts.

And those two are now.

.

.

.

Nias and I were petting a puppy.

After three days of being investigated and answering various questions, I didn’t have time to go see the puppy.

It was only today that I had a chance, so Nias finally came to see the puppy he was talking about.

“turn!”

At Nias’ clear command, a yellow puppy resembling a Shiba Inu spun around in place.

I was so excited that the dog’s tail was shaking so much that I couldn’t see it.

“young master! Isn’t he very cute? Etch!”

Nias coughed, covering her mouth with both hands.

After that, a small blush appeared on Nias’ soft cheeks like a marshmallow with a bashful smile.

yes that’s right cute.

“Yes.”

“The reaction is weak… .”

“Really cute.”

“You don’t seem to be looking at the dog.”

Nias tilted her head in puzzlement and looked up at me.

I didn’t know.

I gently brushed Nias’ black hair, which was staring up at me in a daze.

Nias gently closed her eyes, as if the touch felt good.

Nias, who must have had his eyelids crossed without thinking, was cute because he looked so defenseless.

I admired Nias’s softened face for a while.

However, he suddenly remembered Nias’ lonely expression he had seen on the morning of the first incident.

Even though those dark eyes, which always looked up at me, were looking at me as if telling me not to go, I went out that day without incident.

It would have been different if he had known that the Raven King would threaten Nias.

Anyway, Nias cried and came running to me hurt.

At that moment, one corner of me too was devoured. He wanted to prevent anyone from hurting Nias.

The moment I remembered it, I realized what direction my obsession was heading.

I didn’t want to lose Naas to anyone.

That’s probably why he killed the Raven King more brutally than ever, who carelessly mentioned Nias.

For some reason, now, this defenselessness seemed dangerous.

And I really wanted Nias like that.

I thought I didn’t want to miss it by making it completely mine.

I hated seeing Nias’ silent smile leave me.

My hand moved as if to prove that this girl was mine.

To prevent Nias from escaping, I put my hand through the back of her neck and firmly supported her, as if ripping through her thin black hair.

The moment Nias half-opened his long eyelashes and quivered, I kissed Nias.

The lips parted softly. A sweet breath flowed in, and I swallowed it in one breath.

Nias seemed bewildered, and tightened his grip on the hem of my clothes.

A light and soft kiss continued with only the lips touching, and when Nias’s trembling gradually subsided, he slightly opened his mouth.

It was because he wanted to see Nias’ blushing face.

Unsurprisingly, Nias’s flushed face was dyed the color of cherry blossoms.

One thing that was different from my expectations was that there were tears in my eyes.

I kissed Nias’ eyes and said after wiping away the tears.

Ignoring Nias’ tickle.

“pig.”

“yes. Etch! Ooh, pollen.”

“cute.”

“yes? not a dog… Me?”

“yes.”

At my firm words, Nias hesitated and lowered her head.

“I don’t know what to say.”

I laughed a little because it was funny.

Well, when you say it like you know it well.

“you do not have to know. What you don’t know, because I know.”

Even if Nias didn’t know, I seemed to know at least everything Nias wanted to say.

However, Nias made a pouting face as if he had managed to understand that I was being treated like an idiot.

“It’s okay because I know you don’t know, too.”

“What?”

I was puzzled. Was there anything I didn’t know about Nias?

Nias pondered, then laughed bashfully.

“If you eat your lunch, you will know.”

It’s impossible.

“someday… I will eat.”

Still, someday, I’m sure I’ll eat Nias’ lunchbox.

someday.

But I, who had promised a later date, ate a cookie Nias had left beside me in my sleep while reading until late that night.
