How To Survive as a Crazy Prince

“The celebration is scheduled for next week. We are also reviewing rewards appropriate for performance.”

“prize? Besides the rank increase, what else is there?”

“If it was an ordinary mission as planned, it would have ended with a rank increase, but it wasn’t like that. Would you like to receive some decorations?”

“That’s not bad.”

It’s a medal, so I longed for it a little. Every time I met Alexei, I was concerned about the decorations on my uniform.

Compared to Alexei’s medal, it would be no different from the carnation on Mother’s Day, but it would be better than nothing.

“So now that the celebration is scheduled, a new schedule has been set for the week.”

“Are you new?”

“It’s a major cleaning.”

Katyusha, who was calm, reacted to the word cleaning. It was an expression of blatant annoyance.

“The prime minister is coming, so we can’t stay like this, can we? It’s the principal’s order. Cancel all schedules for a week and clean up the knight academy.”

“… … Everyone thinks the same everywhere.”

It was like a military base when the stars are coming. Although it is also a military-related facility in the first place.

After that, all schedules were canceled and the knight academy was cleaned up.

Skipping training is good, but cleaning is not acceptable. In an atmosphere neither good nor bad, the students gathered in groups of twos and threes and continued cleaning. It doesn’t look very efficient.

In the first place, this kind of cleaning is mostly just for the self-satisfaction of high-ranking people. Or a defense mechanism to relieve anxiety.

“It was fun watching the class, but this is really boring.”

Ethel yawned in boredom. Katyusha and I were following me around.

“Are you going to follow me? Didn’t you say you wanted to be a spectator?”

“A misunderstanding. Now that I’m here, I just wanted to take a look around here and there. It was a car I was getting tired of.”

Fortunately, I don’t think I’m going to keep following. The image of a father is a specification. A prince must have charisma.

“Is there a library or something here?”

“Yes. I know it’s pretty big.”

“I will stay there. Because I like reading stories. Bring me your meals on time.”

Ethel declared that she would become a bamboo shooter in the library. There was no particular reason to refuse, so after saying yes, we headed for the library.

When I arrived at the library after being greeted by cleaning students, there were Bernadetta and Verr in the reading room.

Ber had piled up a bunch of books on his desk and was reading them desperately. The sight of him constantly taking notes and writing things down was like a senior in high school right before the exam.

“If I could put this together like this… … No, from whether that’s possible… … . ok… … .”

More than that, everyone is cleaning up, but they are proudly playing polka dots. Apparently, they don’t even know it’s cleaning week. Sometimes I envy you being able to live at your own pace like this.

“Ber, what are you doing there?”

“yes? Oh, Mikhail!”

Berg stood up from his seat. And he started rummaging through his pockets.

“I-I just made something great! I’ve been waiting for the day I’ll see you all the time!”

What Berg took out of his pocket was a small red magic stone. It looked like it would suit a lozenge-shaped brooch.

“Hoo. what is that?”

Ethel looked up at Ver’s hand with interest. He looked at Ethel, wondering who Ver was, then turned his gaze to his pointy ears and jumped up.

“Elf… … It’s an elf! Why are elves here?!”

“There is a certain degree of dullness in the world. This is the child I brought from the mission.”

“Did you bring an elf?! First time hearing it!”

“How many friends do you have, you?”

It’s just pitiful to not know that it’s become such a hot topic until now. In the original work, it seems that Eugene took care of him, but he doesn’t, so it’s like this.

“Ah, anyway. I’ll get to the point. This magic stone was created after experimenting with it while cleaning the garbage dump recently.”

“Why the dump… … Oh, is it because of the corps commander?”

“I’m still helping with cleaning after school. Once you get used to it, it’s rewarding and good.”

I’m glad you’re positive I hope next time I won’t make such a stupid mistake.

“Anyway, this magic stone. This is awesome!”

Ver’s eyes twinkled as he placed the magic stone in my hand.

“That’s it. If you infuse this magic stone with mana… … .”

“What if I blow it in?”

I listened to Ber’s words and injected magic into the magic stone. I felt it amplify. A magic stone that has already worked properly like this——.

“Surprisingly, it explodes!”

I threw the magic stone out the window with all my might.

aaagh-!!

“Huhgyaaah?!”

Scary to fly out of the window, the magic stone caused a huge explosion in the air. It was such an intense explosion that the windows of the library were shattered one after another. After the explosion, the intense heat wave swept through her hair.

“Ughyaaagh! What, what! Please release me!”

“I will arrest Lee for an attempted assassination! dare!”

“Calm down, Katyusha. It’s hard to calm down, but calm down.”

Before I knew it, I overpowered Ber and told Katyusha, who was shouting, to calm down, and to the students coming up to ask what was going on, I told them not to worry about it and go down.

“… … If it’s dangerous, say it’s dangerous.”

“I didn’t know that you could inject magic right away! It’s not all my fault!”

I never thought I would repeat such a stupid mistake so quickly. I sighed deeply thinking that I should clean up the messy library first.

Around the time when the library was almost finished.

“Did you say Ber? You made something interesting. Are there more?”

Ethel asked Ver. Ver, who was pouring shards of glass into the trash can, looked at me.

“Give me Wouldn’t it be safe if I didn’t put magic power into it?”

“Well, then… … . Please be careful.”

Ver received my consent and held out the magic stone to Ethel. Ethel shone the magic stone in the light and examined it here and there as if it were interesting.

“I never thought a human could do this much.”

And with a satisfied face, he returned it to Ver.

“It’s crude because it doesn’t understand the structure, and it explodes because of that. If you can improve it, you can make something fun.”

“structure… … Are you Mmm. He says difficult things.”

“Ethel, despite her appearance, is almost ten times older than the three of us together. I don’t tell you to be polite, but you’d better not treat me like a kid.”

“Oh, it was Grandma!”

“Do you want to die?”

“… … Don’t even treat me like a grandmother.”

By the way, Katyusha is cleaning the area around Ver, measuring the distance she can overcome right now. It’s totally terrorist treatment.

“Well, anyway, this would be a good pastime. It will be a good hobby.”

Ethel returned the magic stone to Ver. Ber looked down at Ethel with a puzzled expression, as if he didn’t know what he was talking about.

“Magic stone processing is a specialty for elves. Let’s make something fun.”

“Funny thing, yo… … ?”

I had a hunch that something outrageous was about to happen.

After cleaning the library, I left Ethel and Katyusha in the library.

I had no particular intention of helping with the cleaning, and no one asked me to help, so I just took a leisurely stroll through the knight academy. What is Mustafa doing? Haven’t seen it in a while recently.

“Ah, isn’t it the crown prince?”

Someone called me as I was walking near the teacher’s office thinking I should look for it. It was a white-haired chief engineer who was neatly dressed in a uniform.

“Are you the chief sergeant?”

“That’s right.”

It was a smooth conversation. I was a bit nervous even after saying it, but I guess I could do it when I became the crown prince. Actually, I talked to the corps commander, but it’s funny that he’s worried now.

“I heard about your recent success. You are amazing.”

“It’s because my colleagues did a good job.”

Was it a character that showed up once or twice in the original work? It doesn’t matter much, but I remember that I gave a few words of important advice.

“Come to think of it, has the introduction of firearms been decided?”

I thought it was going well, so I asked what had been bothering me all along.

“It is. Based on this achievement, we plan to teach firearms to common people who do not possess magical powers.”

“… … Don’t you do it for nobles?”

“Isn’t it necessary?”

When I asked for an answer that was different from what I wanted, the chief sergeant asked what he was talking about.

“Wasn’t it the wonderful magic link between the prince and the students that put the finishing touches on this mission as well?”

The chief sergeant coaxed.

“I think strengthening magic is much better than learning firearms.”

And came to the same conclusion as the original.

“I know one, and I don’t know the other.”

I shook my head and replied sharply.

“What do you think will happen if a commoner turns a gun on us?”

“What do you mean by that… … ?”

As if he hadn’t thought of it in the first place, the chief sergeant asked back in bewilderment. Have we not learned anything from the recent Saratov rebellion?

“Aristocrats should learn about firearms. I will learn too.”

“Wouldn’t it be better to strengthen the magic a little more?”

“There are not many people with magic that can protect themselves from bullets.”

If it were me, I would be able to bend it with a magnetic field or block it with the secret art of the earth. But most don’t. It is impossible for Proud to block bullets with magic other than a sword.

“Aristocrats and people with magical powers are human after all. If you get hit by a bullet, you die.”

“but… … Isn’t it true that magic is a stronger force? Wouldn’t it be enough to wipe it out with a huge magic?”

The principal did not seem to understand what I was saying.

“It is certainly true that each noble with A-rank magical power has strength comparable to that of a strategic weapon.”

“It is.”

“But are there many?”

The chief sergeant could not answer. There were at most 20 or so people, and among them there were those who were not experts in combat like Fromm.

“Can you really fight properly in front of a large number of enemies armed with firearms?”

“that… … I can’t be certain.”

“It will certainly be possible if appropriate strategies and strategies are developed. But to develop it, you must know your enemy.”

Because they didn’t do that, Sangvis Sangvis in the original story was defeated by the Revolutionary Army.

“I’m not saying to neglect magic, I’m saying learn firearms.”

I have no intention of letting that history repeat itself.

‘Even so, I have no intention of continuing Sangvis Sangvisi as it is.’

My head was cluttered, and I sighed deeply. The chief sergeant coughed as if embarrassed.

“I will deeply engrave what you said today. Let’s bring it up on the agenda at the next meeting.”

“okay. please don’t I’m sorry that the blue kid spoke arrogantly.”

“no. That was a good word. As expected, he is the one who inherited the emperor’s blood.”

While giving a disturbing compliment, the chief sergeant bowed his head and left. I caught my breath and sat down on a nearby bench.

“… … come out slowly How long will you be hiding?”

And he told him who was still hiding.

“Excuse me.”

He emerged from behind the building.

It was Eugene.
