Her Royal Highness Seems to be Angry

By the time Leticiel had finished his meal, the fourth hour was finally coming to an end.

"Four limits will be over in five minutes."

"Right."

To Sieg, who says as he looks at the clock on the wall, Leticiel hammers him without looking directly at him.

Since then, as Lucas also turned in and talked to the three of us, Leticiel's tension with Sieg gradually eased.

But I'm sorry. It doesn't make any difference. Leticiel still can't see his face. My heart strikes an early bell, and I get embarrassed and heat builds up in my face.

"Sieg, what are you gonna do after this?

"Right...... I'm free anyway, and I think I'll go out to class on a whim"

"Ho, you're the Blue Sky Thunder in class and all. Are you even going down with a spear tomorrow?

"That's terrible"

Sieg smiles bitterly at Lucas for saying Shah Shah. Leticiel tilts his neck again at the look of it.

"... is it so unusual for Master Sieg to go to class?

"I don't mind Siege, Miss Drossel"

"Ha ha... ok. So, the... class..."

"Whoa, that's unusual. He's famous because he hasn't been in class since school."

"........................ Yea!?

It didn't even sound like it, and Leticiel rushes to block his mouth with both hands.

Now I think she's heard something outrageous. Ever since school, I haven't been in class!? Is that good as a student? Or are the teachers good with that?

"Huh? Is that okay?

"It's okay. You can graduate from this school even if you're not in all the classes."

"No... it doesn't seem like that..."

"I honestly don't know what you're doing in class, because if you go to the library on your own, you'll get more results than that, so I'm not sure what it means to go to class."

"Oh, I know that"

Even now that I've been in class a few times, Leticiel hasn't abandoned the idea that "school is useless after all". I thought what I learned in school was still very much the same as oral knowledge from the elderly.

Besides, it is more efficient and absorbent to study at your own pace and strength than to be pushed unilaterally to the pace of others.

(... then should we skip magic related classes...?

She doesn't need a surgical class right now, and without magic, she doesn't make sense to go to a magic practice class. Then I'll spend my time skipping something else.

Leticiel was summarily sentenced. There's no one to go in there and say, "Is that okay with you?"

"So it's time to go"

"Right. Now, if you'll excuse me."

"Whoa, come on."

A salute to Lucas, who waves with a glimpse, Leticiel leaves the dining room with Sieg.

……

……

Neither of us opened our mouths on the road. Leticiel gently turns his gaze to the next Zeke.

No matter how many times I saw it, Sieg looked like Nao. Of course, Nao had never been more aesthetically shaped, but the overall atmosphere, physical hips, hair color, etc. made me think of Nao.

Nao's shadowy face, eyes of a different color than Nao's. I know a hundred things about him not being Nao, but Leticiel really lays Nao on Sieg, and he's restless.

"... what's up? Something on my face?

Sieg, who casually turned this way, gazed at me. Leticiel deflects his eyes to the side reflexively. Earlier ugliness and Nao's smile crossed the back of his brain, making his chest painful.

"No, never mind..."

Leticiel says in an extremely calm tone so that you don't notice it in your chest, where your heart rate is slowly rising. I am able to answer normally...... should.

"... you move your eyes a lot instead of changing your expression"

Leticiel's shoulder shuddered small at the answer going further up the diagonal when he thought. They're finding out. It is found out that it is easy to see.

I was going to try to treat Sieg calmly and with the usual faceless expression. Would I have been such a lousy poker face?

"Your eyes are swimming again, Miss Drossel"

Sieg spills a couscous and a grin at the dropsell of a chigged hug somewhere like that, with a cold, faceless look as if it were a doll, letting only his eyes swim so plainly.

Rumors of the ice demon Drossel Noah Filialeggis are now known to everyone if they are students of the Lucrezia School.

Beautiful enough not to exaggerate to say the best in school, he was born to the warlord of the prestigious Duke's house, and despite being the fiancée of the First Prince, an arrogant, our best and prized, and his own disliked man is a relentlessly beating ruthless rose.

But in front of her, she was a far cry from such rumors.

I cried at myself the first time I met him, and I bowed my head to myself for what I did. Would there ever have been noble ladies who would disown such pride?

Drossel was not a ruthless person as rumored, but in a way she was an "ice demon," the look on Drossel's face had hardly changed during her time with him for about half an hour.

I could read some emotions in the trick, but more than 90% of my mind remained hidden in the vale. Wrapped in the ice of facelessness, she was Rin and beautiful, cold enough to hesitate to touch, just like an "ice demon".

What the hell would she look like if she laughed, Sieg was purely interested.

"You're an interesting man."

"... is that ridiculous?

"No way. I'm honestly praising you."

Leticiel tiptoes his mouth small as he stares at Zeke, who is still bringing a sneaky laugh. She doesn't realize that the look looks like a very age-appropriate girl.

"Well, here we are."

While doing that, he arrived in his elementary classroom. There is a door in front of Leticiel with a plate hanging with two primary pairs written on it.

"Well, good luck with your class."

"... Isn't there going to be a zeek too?

"I'll get out. But I'm not a pair, I'm a pair of students."

That's what Zeke said, pointing to the next classroom. I see, and at the same time I was convinced that Leticiel felt just a little sorry for me, and I was stunned.

I realized I was projecting Nao on this boy in front of me as early as possible.

"Was I? Then let's work together."

"Yes."

Dropping Sieg off into the next classroom, Leticiel hands on two sets of classroom doors.

As I entered the classroom, my gaze throughout the classroom pierced this one, just like in the morning. Is the breakdown of gaze something like 40% distracting, 30% ridiculing, 30% loathing, etc?

"Dear Drossel......!!

In the meantime, only Mirandalette rose from the seat where she was sitting and rushed over here with Patapata.

"Where have you been so far? I'm not coming home with my teacher taking me..."

"I'm sorry to bother you. I had a little important discussion with the teachers."

"Oh, really...?

A nasty conjecture worked like it was definitely not just an argument, but Mirandalette decided not to care.

"What are the five limits classes?

"It's Kingdom History. I'm sleepy in this class..."

To Mirandalette, who spills stupidity with her melancholy face, Leticiel conceives with her finger on her chin.

Kingdom History...... I mean, this is a history class. Leticiel wanted to know what was going on in the world and how long it had been since that era.

"Yes. Then I'm glad you came."

"Is...? Ha..."

I don't really know what you're talking about, I don't care about Mirandalette on her face like that, and Leticiel looks around the classroom and looks for a seat.

I really wish I could have sat next to Mirandaletto, but unfortunately I wasn't available. I couldn't get a seat in the back row, but I could secure a third row of seats from behind.

If the chime rings and the teacher comes in, all you have to do is move on with the class, just like in the morning.

(I thought... but that teacher... he's not the Pickerel teacher just now)

I forced myself in the morning, picky with a shining scalp...... not Bartolana stood in front of the lecture with Poyo Poyo rocking her stomach.

He was a teacher of history, I can't believe it. In the meantime, Leticiel, who soon lost interest, spread out the textbooks he had taken out and started reading one silently.

A boy student sitting next to her has a suspicious look at what an ice demon who has never opened a textbook in history class before started reading and fishing for textbooks with a serious look on his face.

Of course, it's not Leticiel who realizes that.

"Yeah, well, then open up six pages of textbooks -..."

Leaving out Bartolana's voice and all the sound of running around the pen, Leticiel was indulging in the textbook.

Do you think the Kingdom of Platinum is the third most powerful country on the Astraire continent? I was secretly relieved that I was on the same continent where I once lived.

It is more than a thousand years old as the history of the kingdom and is now in alliance with its neighbor, the Ealis Empire. In Leticiel's living days, the country's average life expectancy was 60-70 years, beyond 100 years, unquestioned and powerful. It is what has become a peaceful world.

Prior to the founding of the Kingdom of Platinum, a number of countries continued their bloody battles over hegemony on the Astraire continent. It was probably in this day and age that Leticiel lived.

This long war is called the Astrea Continental War. It is also called the Millennium War because we are not sure when it started or how long it lasted - …

Second, I felt a shock on my shoulder. Gazing up from the textbook, Leticiel looks next door.

A boy student sitting next to her was slapping her on the shoulder. Oh? I think I've seen this situation somewhere just now...?

"What can I do for you?

"No... the teacher is pointing to me, not something"

Looking forward, Bartolana was looking over here with the textbook in one hand. At this angle, the classroom lights reflected on his head and were very dazzling...... no, let's not do this any more.

"... I'm sorry. Could you please ask me one more question?

"Hmm. Can you say something about the names of the main Powers during the Astrea Continental War?

"Right...... when it comes to the powers of the Powers, I can give you the Dranzar Empire, which had the greatest power and national territory on the continent. I will not let out the Kingdom of Sephiroth, its neighbour and also the bi-perfect one crack of the continent. You have the Holy Walpurgis Empire as a country that had its surroundings under control in its internal affairs. You think this country was the only one that didn't have an army and all its people were belly-blooded? In turn, when it comes to countries that specialize in military matters, is it the Republic of Hertoctel and the Kingdom of Fornande? The latter, in particular, is also said to be a country overnight, a country founded with a castle overnight."

"Heh...? Ho, ho... That's crazy, it's even coming out of countries that aren't in textbooks..."

Bartolana was crushing something with Bosoboso, but that never reached the students' ears.

Speaking of Leticiel on the other hand, he was just stating the information he saw and heard in his previous life as it was. What to hide, she lived at the time of that Astrea Continental War. I know better than anyone here about the situation at the time.

All the countries I have just given you were in power in the centre, not including those on the border. Many of them, moreover, have lasted quite a long time, but the Kingdom of Fornande and others have been crushed by the Union of Powers less than 10 years after its founding. Well, it's not in history and it's natural.

Then the Kingdom of Regeneroses, the home of Leticiel, was also a strong country there on the border. At least not as much as I was alongside my neighbor, the Kingdom of Gelrides.

"... uh, I think the explanation is somewhat more detailed, but you seem to be getting a good preview. Now open the next page. Now -..."

Bartolana returns to class and Leticiel drops his gaze on the textbook again. In this age, there is too much history and knowledge that Leticiel does not know.

Looks like we still have a pile of things to look into.
