At about the same time that Lars and the others departed, Flugel, Hawk, and Eagle of the Reflexion Country came to the audience hall again.

“I’m sorry you had to come all this way to be involved in this mess.”

The first person to say this was Frederick, the king. Flugel replied softly.

“No, I was originally entrusted with Princess Verna and Tigre-sensei, so I was able to fulfill my purpose. I’m sorry for the abruptness of my visit.”

“…… Well, it makes me feel a little better to hear you say that. Thank you. I’ve been thinking a lot this time, especially about my inadequacies. Whether it’s bringing Verna back or not being able to see Lucera’s heart. I guess I’ll have to hand over this chair to Veig sooner rather than later.”

Frederick laughs to himself. Then Flugel said.

“I don’t know if I, a person from another country should this, but as Princess Reina said, you can just correct your mistakes, right? If you have a second chance, work hard and strive for it, and I’m sure you’ll understand. “

Veig opened his mouth in response.

“That’s right, Your Majesty. I still have a lot to learn, and I hope that my father-in-law will do his best to raise me to be a worthy Knight Commander.”

“Veig ……”

Grace and Shiina further continued.

“That’s right. If you say something like that, Verna will laugh at you, won’t she? Even though we finally had her promise that she would come back to show her my face, but if she comes back and finds father dried up, she might think that “Serves you right”.”

“Fufu, I’m sure mother will understand if you tell her.”

“I …… guess …… Well, I’ll have to start all over again. Gentlemen, I look forward to working with you again!”

When Frederick declared so, the knights who were standing aside straightened their postures and raised their voices. Eagle and Hawk, who were watching, nodded with smiles on their faces.

“As expected of the country of knights, they all look formidable.”

“The undead extermination was brilliant. We were inspired to hone our skills as well.”

However, Veig cowered as he walked over to them and shook their hands.

“What are the two of you who could keep the undead from coming head-on into the queen’s private chambers. Itsuart’s lover and maid would not have been able to do what they did without you. We can’t lose either.”

“Haha, I guess it’s mutual.”

Laughed as they shook hands, and Veig continued.

“At any rate, I’m surprised at the students from your school. They didn’t just face the dragon and fought it, but that they’ve been able to tame it.”

Veig smiled wryly, remembering that moment. Flugel put his hand on his chin and continued in a serious tone of voice.

“…… Yes, one of the children was a boy named Lars, and we knew that he was very capable.. He’s only ten years old, but I think they may be working together to improve each other’s abilities rather than individually.”

“So the center of all this is a boy named Lars? The one who brought his friends on the dragon and ripped the Emperor away from Lucera?”

“Yes, that’s right. He’s been through a lot a while ago, and we’d like him to work for the country if possible.”

When Frederick said, “So it’s that much”, he remembered Lars and the others who had fought for the queen with bloody noses, and Frederick slapped his knee and stood up.

“…… Oh, I forgot to give them their reward. I’d like to thank Flugel-dono and the others for their hard work in getting rid of the undead. We’ll send someone back for the kids, but …… what would be good for Flugel-dono and the others?”

Then Flugel’s eyes lit up and he replied to Frederick.

“No, it’s fine that you welcomed me on such short notice.”

“Mm, but that would make this country seem less than polite. I wonder if there is anything else. Right, Veiga.”

“Let’s see ……”

When the two of them looked at each other, Flugel popped his hand and then opened his mouth.

“If so, how about helping us out when we have a problem in our Reflexion Country. We don’t want any unreasonable requests, and if you can’t help us, it’s fine to refuse. I just want you to help us if we are in trouble. Could you please write a note to that effect?”

Frederick stared into Flugel’s eyes to confirm his intentions. After a while, he sat back down on his throne, and Frederick opened his mouth with a wry smile.

“I understand. If you have any problems, you can always come to me. Please give my regards to King Albert. I’ll give you a letter later.”

“Thank you for your kind words. My king will be pleased to hear that. Now, if you’ll excuse us, we have to go.”

“O-Oh my, you’re leaving already?”

When Grace said this while looking at Hawk, Flugel got the idea but replied softly.

“Yes. I have to make a report, and I want to visit Lars-kun and the others on the way, after all …… Hawk, will you stay for a bit?”

“Ahem! …… No, let’s go home for the day. Grace-sama, please come visit our the Reflexion.”

“Oh, yes ……”

Eagle turned on his heel, laughing, and Flugel and Hawk followed, ending the audience. As they walked down the corridor, Eagle asked Flugel.

“…… Is that alright? Wouldn’t it have been better to negotiate for trade or export?”

“No problem. The King and I have always believed that our first objective was to “have them owe us”. I’m sure we could have made some promises with Verna-sensei case alone, but I didn’t expect you to save the queen from an ancient emperor.”

“So, when is this “if”?”

(T/N: He’s asking when is the “If”, the time that they have a problem, I guess.)

In response to Hawk’s curious question, Flugel also replied with a straight face while looking forward.

“…… We don’t know when the Berias Country are going to attack our country, after all. I guess It’s time they move on to target the next country.”

“So that’s it. There are friendly countries to the east, and they may call for help.”

“That’s what I meant. So, let’s get the letter and go home. What do you think the king’s face will be when I tell him that Lars-kun and the others have tamed the dragon?”

“He’ll want him to come to the Capital more and more……”

“Wouldn’t he drag Lars’ entire class with him?”

Eagle said this with a chuckle, and they both laughed. 

Flugel left Luitzar Country with the letter in his hand and a smile on his face, saying that he had been able to secure a very big “promise”. This “promise” will not be fulfilled for a long time to come–

This is the end of the teacher’s chapter! Of course, this promise is a flag (laughs)

Integrated with Tigre-sensei’s story ……

Thank you for reading!

[Afterword Theater]

“What are you going to do next time?”

What should I do …… I have no idea …… Just kidding!

But I think I’ll just have a quiet talk in the guild club. I want to write about Ryuuze or something.
