I Quit Saving the Academy Heroes

The President’s Help

“Now what is this… ”

“Keep looking at me!”

the president says

Meanwhile, the story of the man in the video continued.

“Yeah, I, before the practical assessment, Leo Epsilt… A cadet came to me.”

Oh, it came out.

Leo Epsilt’s name.

Leo Epsilt’s face turned white as soon as he saw the man’s face when the video first started.

When his name came out of the mouth of the man who called himself Bennet, he bit his lip and trembled.

It would be difficult for the duke or prince next to him to make an excuse if he reacted in such an easy-to-understand way.

The teaching assistant in the video is steadfastly continuing the story even though his voice is trembling to the extent that he wonders what has happened.

The story that comes out of his mouth, something like that.

It was quite as expected.

He was bought by Leo Epsilt and received money.

I was given an unidentified sack from him, and without knowing the contents, I decided to deliver it during the practical evaluation.

After handing over the sack, he agreed to receive more money.

By the way, the bag was sealed, so I couldn’t check the contents.

He said he thought that there must have been some emergency food or a weapon for self-defense inside.

As per my appointment with Leo, after the practical evaluation started, I secretly took the sack and went into the evaluation room.

He handed over the sack to Leo Epsilt, and received the balance he promised later.

Of course, by then I knew something was seriously wrong.

It is said that it had already happened, and Leo Epsilt, who received the bag in the first place, said that the contents inside were food and a compass.

This is all the story that came out of the mouth of an assistant named Bennett.

After finishing the story, he went somewhere.

I think it’s probably the person taking the video, but looking at me with a desperate expression.

Finally, the magic video was picked and turned off.

“thing… That’s a lie! All bullsh*t!”

Immediately after, the words that came out of Leo Epsilt’s mouth did not deviate even an inch from his expectations.

Duke Epsilt was pretending to be composure, but he could see his mouth twisting.

The prince was holding his forehead.

In the center, President Luisa Falken is smiling.

After a moment of silence, Duke Epsilt managed to open his mouth.

“… Nothing has changed at all. Testimonies from the mouths of unknown people can be manipulated enough.”

The prince responds.

“right. Even if the author is the academy’s assistant, he may have been bribed or threatened to say what he was told.”

“Yeah, yes! Surely he was threatened and made up words that didn’t even exist… ”

tuk.

Leo Epsilt’s words were cut off again this time.

As if waiting for those words, Luisa Falken threw something on the table.

something that looks like a machine.

I don’t know what it is, but I’m just guessing.

Leo Epsilt saw it and his hands were shaking.

“How did you do that… ”

Leo Epsilt mumbles involuntarily.

He soon realizes his mistake and shuts his mouth, but after everyone has already heard.

“What else is this… ?”

“Oscar-kun, you think you know what this thing is, right?”

“Aren’t you asking that now!”

Luisa Falken pulls out a necklace from her arms and shakes it.

“Among the necklaces of cadets before the sophomore year of the academy, the only thing that broke was that of the first party in class A. Don’t you think it’s strange?”

“Hey, that’s a coincidence… ”

“You are saying the same thing.”

She cuts Leo Epsilt’s stuttering words with a single knife.

Luisa Falken suddenly looks at us.

“I’m sorry I’m late, cadets. Searching the entire Dark Forest is time consuming.”

We looked at her with a surprised and slightly moved face.

So, that sound.

Isn’t that the sound of overturning the entire expansive training field in the Dark Forest in order to find evidence that Leo Epsilt hid?

No, was that even possible in the first place?

Apparently, the academy is bigger than I thought.

By the way, there was no movement until a long time after the incident occurred, so I thought it was strange.

I’m sure you were looking for a solid proof behind the scenes.

Damn, sorry for doubting.

“Say, it’s unbelievable… ”

Leo Epsilt murmurs with mad eyes.

Well, in that spacious practice evaluation room.

It must have been buried deep somewhere in the dark forest infested with beasts.

If I had to mobilize people to find it, I would probably have a similar reaction.

Beside such Leo Epsylt, Duke Epsylt, whose composure had broken, glared at Leo Epsylt as if to kill him.

Oh, I think I know what that person is thinking right now.

Leo Epsylt probably boasted that he never left any evidence, that he would never get caught.

Anyway, this is the Duke of Epsylt who does not give up even though it has come this far.

“Hmm, isn’t that something that can be manipulated as well? Did it come from a practice evaluation center, or was it something I got in moderation somewhere… ”

“Of course, we have also secured testimony that Cadet Leo Epsylt purchased this small anti-magic circuit nullifier.”

A much more thorough president than I thought.

“I guess it’s all manipulation! Luisa Falken, are you trying to despise the imperial family now!”

Oskar Schpelz suddenly shouts like that.

It’s something I’ve felt before.

That prince doesn’t seem to be able to control his emotions well.

By the way, Luisa Falken calmly responds to the prince’s appearance.

“Ah, it could be.”

“then… ”

“So, I will provide all the evidence I have collected so far to the Imperial Investigation Team. Of course, including the recruits of the teaching assistant in the video. Won’t the investigation team decide whether the evidence is authentic or not?”

She says with a soft smile.

She points to the parchment on the table.

Only then did the prince, and especially the Duke of Epsilt, look at the parchment with a bewildered expression.

Perhaps he resents himself who signed that document.

Of course, from our point of view, this was a lot of fun.

In particular, Veronica had been smiling since before.

Count Franz Wallenstein watches the situation with interest.

“Whew… ”

Oscar Schefeltz sighs heavily.

“Ok, fine. Hand over the evidence to me. I keep it, and if my father organizes an investigation team, I will hand it over to you.”

“I will politely decline.”

Is it the last feat?

Oscar Schpeltz makes a clearly intentional request.

Naturally, the president flatly rejected the request.

However, if it goes like this, did you think that it was all over?

The prince beckons to the knights behind him.

“No, no. These are key pieces of evidence in this case, wouldn’t it be a big deal if they were lost? Keep it safe in the Imperial Palace.”

Following the prince’s hand gestures, the knights step forward.

“Take it over with respect.”

The knights, who had retreated behind the prince, drew their swords again and moved slowly towards Luisa Falken.

“Well, this is interesting again.”

Luisa Falken stepped forward with an even deeper smile.

Scarlett Marche and Franz Wallenstein try to get up from their seats with smiles as everyone looks ready to fight.

No, is this okay?

If you fight the Imperial Knights in the Imperial Palace like this, the situation will be the worst from anyone’s perspective.

Maybe that’s what the prince is aiming for.

However, just before that happens.

The Commander-in-Chief of the Friendship Division came out.

He tells the knights who drew their swords.

“Everyone, stop moving.”

At that, the knights stopped.

“Sir Erron, what are you doing now?”

The prince growled at the commander of the guards.

“Everyone step back.”

The prince shouted in indignation.

“What are you doing! Come on and take it! Sir Eron, bring that crystal orb and device to me now! This is an order!”

“I’m sorry, Your Highness the Prince. The Knights Templar follow only the orders of His Majesty the Emperor.”

“Sir Eron!”

In the end, the prince exploded, but the captain of the guardsmen stood firm.

“The results of today’s meeting will be delivered to His Majesty the Emperor. Then everyone, goodbye.”

The entourage is astonished at the appearance of the commander of the guards who openly ignores the prince, and the rest of the knights are at a loss for what to do with the contradictory orders.

The prince is staring at the commander of the SS division as if to kill him.

The commander of the Friendship Division calmly accepts that gaze.

In such a situation, Luisa Falken leaves the room casually.

Others followed her and started to leave the room.

“Whew… ”

I exhaled a little.

This, in the end, turned out to be the best way to go.

Scarlett Marche and Franz Wallenstein, walking ahead, have a brief conversation.

“In the end, the war ended. There is no need to prepare anything.”

“It would be nice.”

“Hmm… ”

Scarlet Marche stares at Count Wallenstein with a slightly suspicious look.

Louisa Falken, who was walking in the front, suddenly turns around with a swish.

She strides towards us.

Finally, she stopped in front of Count Franz Wallenstein.

“Franz. Can we talk for a moment?”

“Hmm, are you talking about it? I understand, President.”

After the two disappeared, I tilted my head with a puzzled expression.

what is it, you two

“Felice Ansberg.”

A cold woman’s voice is heard from behind.
