Love Letter From The Future

3. Dragon’s Eye, Human Mind (27)

Neris-senpai’s body was scattered as if it was collapsing.

It was a strange technique of concealment, as if assimilating into a shadow. So, with my permission, senior Neris avoided the table for 20,000 people.

I heard most of the information I needed to hear anyway.

Of course, I hadn’t heard of the ‘dragon’s eye’. However, it was safe to listen to the contents along with the results of the additional investigation into the ‘crypt’.

The important information was when the hell the incident would happen.

Speaking of the ‘homecoming festival’, it was an event with less than a week left. In other words, it also meant that there was not much time left.

If the date was so specific, I had to start preparing slowly.

The procession of the homecoming festival forms a large-scale procession. It was reasonable to say that the Demonic Beasts of the Dark Church who oppose him also put that much effort into it.

The greater the size of the two forces facing each other, the greater the casualties.

At this point, it was impossible to cancel the homecoming festival or block the raid in advance. Then there was only one answer.

In order to minimize damage, it was necessary to mobilize all forces and supplement the escort of the procession.

The problem was that I didn’t have the authority to do so, and I didn’t have any reasonable grounds to get the academy to accept my offer.

It was difficult.

A groan escaped from my mouth.

I didn’t always move with the answer anyway, but whenever I had to open my eyes and face a situation like this, it was really frustrating.

Even so, I decided to put those worries away in a corner of my brain.

It wasn’t a problem that would have an answer if I thought about it now, and it was because I had one more homework to face.

My eyes, which had been silent for a moment, glanced to the side.

There were two women standing there.

The 5th Princess Shien, a girl with dark blue hair like the night sky and light gray eyes.

And it was a female knight who seemed to be an escort knight for the princess. She was also an impressive beauty with mysterious blue hair.

When our eyes met, the reactions of the two were different.

Shien suddenly stiffened his body, then glared at me with cold eyes.

On the other hand, the female knight could not make eye contact with me and only chewed her lips. Perhaps the memory of being defeated by the future ‘me’ remained as a bad memory.

Hagiya, one of the royal guards of the imperial family was overpowered by an academy student.

It wouldn’t be strange if he became a laughing stock.

At first glance, he seemed to have low self-esteem. I wanted to say a word of comfort, but I couldn’t bear it.

I think of myself as a being distinct from the future ‘me’, but it was obvious that the other person wouldn’t think so.

So, the only words that came out of my mouth were plain questions.

“… … what happened?”

Shien listened to my voice and studied my face carefully.

Then, as if he was a little surprised, he slightly opened his eyes wide, and then asked in a cool tone.

“Doesn’t it matter if I take a picture of a slender woman’s shoulder?”

At those words, I was dumbfounded, so I sighed and laughed.

The Imperial Secret Service itself was nothing short of a classified mass. Even more, stealth or infiltration missions belonged to their daily lives.

It was essential to undergo torture or, in case of emergency, undergo torture resistance training.

Of course, I was a little anxious when I recalled the last raid on the newspaper club. Didn’t the newspaper staff scream every time a joint was crushed?

He didn’t look like a normal espionage agent.

However, if it was to the extent of tearing the skin, even trainees would have a tolerance for it.

If the screams that burst out of Neris-senpai’s mouth were not acting but genuine, it would be the same as not having completed torture resistance training at all in the Imperial Intelligence Service.

An agent of the Imperial Intelligence Service who is caught screaming that he was stabbed by a thorn while infiltrating?

It was nonsense. Thinking so, I erased my smile for a moment at the eerie sense of incongruity.

torture and screaming

There was a feeling that something was pricking in the brain. That unpleasant sensation, as if the waters of an accident were split by a single stone.

However, the gaze of the princess staring at me was too cold for me to be lost in thought.

I opened my mouth as if it was nothing.

“There are members of the royal family who harass the second son of a rural viscount, so what is it?”

“You insulted me first… … !”

The trembling voice testified to the princess’ anger.

As expected, it was beautiful even as a flower was said to have been hidden by the imperial family, but it did not give me much inspiration.

It was because there were so many beauties around me recently.

Starting with Celine, Saint Seriana, Elsie and Delphine, and Emma.

All of them were women of rare beauty.

That said, the princess’s beauty wouldn’t fade, but it was after my heart had already been trained to make my heart flutter.

The princess narrowed her brow even more at the reaction, which was still indifferent. she asked me

“… … Who the hell did you get support from? Prince or Princess? Which one looks after you and is so confident?”

“No one… I did it alone.”

There wasn’t even an inch of lies in my answer, so the princess’s eyes were stained with deeper suspicion.

Well, it was natural since no prince or princess looked after me.

If I had to argue, since I had been handed down the dragon blood characters, the emperor could be said to be my support. However, this also happened to the ‘me’ of the future, so it was a fact that could not be revealed to the princess at this point.

I started walking slowly.

It was time to slowly go back. The princess and her escort knight had nothing to do.

There were so many things to do right now.

In order to reduce even a little bit of blood flowing at the homecoming festival, I had to move from now on.

However, it was a bit too much to leave without saying anything, so I stopped walking as I passed the princess.

“… … You’d better be careful in the future.”

The whispered words sounded like sudden provocations.

It could be said that he wanted it to be accepted that way. The thicker the princess’s vigilance, the more likely her escort would become thicker.

As of now, the princess was the first priority to be protected.

The future ‘I’ dared to sprinkle holy water on the princess. Although my future personality was filthy, I wasn’t someone who would provoke anyone for no reason.

In other words, there was a good reason.

I decided to respect his judgment. It was because I dared to provoke the princess once more.

Indeed, the effect was outstanding.

“What are you?”

A cracking voice.

It was a strangely excited expression.

The princess’ light gray eyes began to glow with a subtle glow. It was a change that was hard to notice, but I could tell by looking closely.

Her pupils were dilating vertically.

“What are you… Do you really care about me and give me sincere advice? I am the princess of the imperial family! I’m not the kind of person to be pitied by the second son of a country viscount!”

Glowing eyes glared at me like they would kill me. If emotions had physical force, my face would already have been scratched.

“… … To you, do I look that weak?”

The question he spat out while shaking his body was filled with desperate emotions. It was as if my words had pricked her weak part.

That’s why he crouched down like this and set up a thorn.

The more you do it, the more fragile you look without even knowing it.

The princess could not control her growing emotions.

At first, her agitation, which was only a slight trembling, gradually increased in severity, and when it reached its peak, it became rather calm.

Cold eyes look at me.

It was as if all emotions had been removed. There was nothing floating on the retina, enough to make me feel like I was staring into the distance.

However, the princess only showed a warm smile.

“You give me a shot, so now the academy is like your world, right? Wrong… The real world is out there.”

One step at a time, she approached me as if clinging to me.

A sweet scent tickled the tip of his nose. The princess looked up at me with eyes as venomous as they were profound.

It was both charming and deadly.

“Your sister is pretty. Does the future look bright?”

It was a mocking whisper.

While smiling faintly, the princess continued to purse her lips.

“It’s not just my sister. All the people you had a relationship with… Let’s see what happens outside of the academy. I’ll make you pay for daring to look down on me… But what, I don’t know if it’s not bad for my little sister?”

A chuckle escaped from the girl’s mouth.

“As long as your face is smooth, you don’t have to worry about making a living. Even if you are from a noble family, you are welcome in the brothel… … .”

I let out a deep sigh.

“… … Princess.”

On the contrary, the princess was taken aback by my nonchalant voice.

She frowned slightly with a puzzled expression.

I stared at the princess in silence for a while.

It was a look that didn’t know whether to say it was regretful or sad.

I pursed my lips and tried to say something, but eventually gave up on the conversation.

The moment when the princess’s eyes formed even stronger hostility.

My hand went to her waist, and the eyes of the knight standing next to the princess widened.

And the light falls down

The ax blade pointed at the princess’s shoulder.

Xian’s eyes grew dull.
