103 – Changes for good and bad

When Elgar first asked if he had time on the weekend, what Kyle expected.

“I want to exercise properly, can you teach me?”

This is about it. If it’s a suggestion like that, I’d be happy to hear it.

It’s very bad for your health to only flutter the hem of your dress and tip your teacup just because you’re a young lady.

All I do is sit down and chat, drink tea and chat, that’s all!

Move a little! Get your butt off! Are you going to leave your legs and cook soup?!

Unknown people are beings born with the best conditions for movement.

Even though I don’t enjoy the exercise itself like John Nassen, I rather hate it.

It is good to do some exercise for your own health.

However, Elgar’s answer that jumped out was her sigh.

“A meeting with Archduke Littorio.”

“Yes, Kyle.”

“… Suddenly, I feel like I have an urgent appointment for the weekend.”

“What are you talking about? Do you really have an appointment?”

“It’s not like that, but it looks like it will be caught.”

“What is that!!”

That was rather what Kyle wanted to say to Elgar.

What is it, that’s it! I thought it was empty, but it was really?!

You really want me to meet Archduke Littorio? Someone from John Nassen?

I really think I should make an appointment on the weekend.

At a time like this, it would be nice if the 5th princess, Julika, would come and drag her out for sparring.

As a matter of fact, she is currently headed to Baron John Nassen’s territory and has not yet returned.

‘I heard that even dog poop can’t be used for medicine.’

To dare to compare the princess to a dog poop would not be enough even if she was taken away for contempt of the imperial family.

But she said that cursing behind her back is useless, even if it’s Mr. Nara.

Kyle coolly swears at Yulica, who left her seat at the right time.

“Does meeting your father bother you?”

“Of course it bothers me. Mr. Elga.”

“Why? Thanks to you, Littorio and John Nassen….”

“That’s not it, Miss Elgar. That’s not it, that’s another matter.”

She quietly attends the academy, works out, and makes friends with her opposite sex.

She dreamed of such a calm, peaceful and sweet, typical romance academy life.

Romance is what freezes to death. She is filming Spectacle Academy Life.

From a certain moment, meetings with ministers became frequent, and now they are treated as civil servants.

I went into battle and smashed three allies and cut my face with the Duke of Shrelitz.

Summarizing, it is that he has been too involved in the political world of the empire.

The direct descendant of John Nassen enters politics. If such rumors spread, it would be very embarrassing.

Starting with the nobles right away, even the imperial family can show a sensitive reaction.

A place with overwhelming power finally steps into politics?

For them, it’s like a huge tsunami that they can’t resist.

But that’s not what Kyle is worried about.

It doesn’t matter how the nobles see it or whether the emperor is worried or not.

They are so weak that they can’t handle the tsunami, so what can they say!

There was something else that Kyle was really afraid of.

“Our John Nassen is not where the stale water flows.”

I can’t help but understand what that dirty water means.

Sometimes Kyle secretly asked his father, Baron Dagon John Nassen.

I wonder if our John Nassen will one day permeate the empire completely.

To that, Baron John Nassen replied with a big smile.

Constantly train your body, push yourself to the limit, and become stronger.

Only stick to it. Just focus on it

Greater power, more profit, and higher positions will only harm a healthy body and a healthy mind.

‘If you go into your father’s ears… Wow, just imagining it makes my spine chill.’

My youngest is working with nobles to do strange things? Heh heh heh

I’m worried that you’re not doing the exercise you’re told to do, and you’re at parties and drinking.

As soon as the word

Comes out, the older brother and sister will be dispatched.

And what will happen next is so obvious that I don’t even want to imagine it.

“Elga-sama. I-I’m a bit burdened, but that meeting….”

“You were very positive the other day.”

“Because at that time the situation was not the same as now.”

I didn’t get a medal, and I didn’t suddenly hear the shout of a hero.

I hadn’t even met Archduke Schrelitz at all.

On the contrary, I tried to return myself to John Nassen somehow in the political world.

“It’s okay if you’re worried about other people’s eyes. It’s an informal visit anyway.”

“….”

If you say that, there is no reason to refuse unconditionally.

If it’s not an official visit, but an informal visit and a secret meeting, it might be okay.

If people don’t talk about it, all of the problems will be solved.

If you think about it, meeting the Archduke is a problem, but refusing to meet is also a problem.

Aren’t they the best people in the empire, except for the emperor and the direct descendants of the imperial family?

“Kyle, nothing will embarrass you. He said he wanted to say thank you for saving Littorio’s face.”

“Um….”

“And there is a reward for that. There is an indoor gymnasium at the academy, right? Kyle I told my father that you always work out there, so you can extend the gym by donating to the academy to the size you want and everything you want….”

Gasp-.

“Actually, I’ve wanted to meet Archduke Littorio for a long time. Not like that.”

A medal, a hero, etc. It was more welcome news than anything else.

Even if it wasn’t so, it was a moment when I was missing the exercise equipment in my hometown more and more these days.

To think that the grand duchess directly stepped forward and expanded the gym, or indoor gymnasium, in the form of donations.

Hearing those words, Kyle grabbed Elgar’s hand tightly and blinked her eyes.

“Ah… that, is it? Then I will tell you that.”

“If you do, Mr. Elgar.”

“Me, by the way. Kyle? This, holding this hand….”

With her face blushing, Elgar uttered a creeping voice.

But Kyle was more focused on other things than on whose hand he was holding.

“I will tell you in detail later about how to expand, how to do the interior, and other very important parts. Littorio is truly the best grand duchess, Lady Elgar.”

“Eh? Oh Go, thank you. Kyle.”

This is the grand duke who really got it right. Cancer, no way.

Kyle entered Littorio praise while still holding Elgar’s hand.

Thanks to that, Elgar was also able to hold her hand and smile a little happily.

Outside the academy, there are all sorts of facilities for students and staff.

This cafe located not far from the back gate is one of them.

It is close to the street, and the skill of the owner who runs the shop is also very good.

It is a place that commoners as well as aristocratic students do not forget.

A place like that, on weekends when it should be the most crowded.

After accepting only a few customers, we immediately put up a ‘Closed’ sign.

“….”

A tension that could not be erased was evident on the owner’s face.

As expected, the person who suddenly visited in the morning was a giant among giants.

Aias Mentine de Littorio. The owner of only three grand dukes in the empire.

He had barged into his cafe all of a sudden.

‘Yo, it seems like too many people are coming these days.’

A while ago, she was a princess. Before that, she was a saint.

It was said that it was a dream to attract a lot of famous people and gain popularity thanks to them.

Anyway, I only expected children from decent families or young ladies to come.

I have never dreamed that people who are afraid to handle it like now will come.

With my daughter-.

“Ugh!! Oh, today is closed! I’m sorry….”

The very nervous owner tries to stop the hurried guest.

The escort knights of Littorio, who had been waiting in advance, gestured that it was okay.

Thanks to this, the owner realized belatedly that the person who had just entered was none other than the princess of that family.

“I’m sorry. Princess. Therefore….”

“No. I’m sorry for making such a fuss over the weekend.”

Elgar places one of her pockets from her bosom on her counter.

“This means an apology.”

“Gwa, it’s okay! The drivers have already paid enough!”

“How much did the knights in my family pay?”

“Thirty imperial silver coins.”

Thirty silver coins can be said to have paid for a day’s worth of sales.

Since it was rented from morning to lunch, or slightly later, it makes sense.

“Take it.”

But Elgar decided to pay her own price as well.

She even gave out forty pieces of silver.

When the owner stubbornly refused, Elgar forced him to listen.

“That price belongs to those who came first. So I and the other guests who came with me have to pay separately. Her name is the daughter of a grand duke, so you can’t pay a lower price than those knights, can you?”

After coming this far, the owner finally accepted the money.

“… Aren’t you paying too much?”

Kyle, who was quietly watching the situation from behind, opens her mouth.

The fact that they suddenly came in and rented an entire cafe is obviously a nuisance.

However, thirty pieces of silver more than compensate for the damage.

I paid more than enough to not even think of a nuisance.

But what is the reason to spend another 40 coins on it?

“I think I kept my conscience with money. Or the stupid money play of an immature young lady.”

Are you reluctant to answer or are you ashamed?

After answering that, it was Elgar who moved inside.

Looking at her, Kyle just laughed.

I kept my conscience with money, la. hahahaha It’s better than selling your conscience to save some money.

Isn’t it better to show the class because the people who have it, not the ones who have it?

With that thought, Kyle calmly followed Elgar.

“… There he is.”

Inside the cafe, in the place where you can see numerous buildings outside the academy.

The Grand Duke of the Empire, the owner of Littorio, and the father of the woman now walking were sitting.
