12 – Episode 12 Last Words
[And I think I said it the other day, but your mother told me to show her face
once. Please come home sometime soon.]
“All right. When I have time, I will go to the manor.”
Come to think of it, I haven’t heard from my parents’ house for quite some time.
‘Has it been two years?’
is not it? Is it any more than that?
My brother and sister don’t know what they’re doing these days.
[Okay, then you’ll be busy too, so I’ll hang up now.]
“yes.”
[Good job.]
“Father too.”
The communication sphere soon loses its light and flickers. I put the
communication tool that had lost its light in a corner of the desk.
Then, as if copied at the factory in advance, all the poems written with
different words as synonyms were discarded.
“Although I had a hard time writing this.’
Unfortunately, I won’t be writing any more in the future.
I quickly completed the poem that I swore to be the last poem of my life.
“This is my last speech.”
I was determined.
He even moved his hand.
There was still a lot of work to do with Her Highness’s professorship, but to
even deal with the Ministry of Magic, the work piled up.
So the moment I reached out for the paperwork to be processed.
Whoops, whoops.
Another communication port rang.
Who else is this time?
I received the communication phrase and gave a formal greeting.
“This is Cadian, Vice Minister of Magic.”
[Vice Minister. ]
“Uh, what is it? Administrator?”
It was the contact of the dispatched manager.
The manager gave a concise report on what had happened so far.
It was about stealing information from the black magicians, but the hiding place
was discovered, and he managed to escape through the siege.
“…Anyway, this situation has come about because of this. Vice Minister.”
After listening to the story calmly for a while, I opened my mouth.
So the conclusion.
“.was it developed?”
[Ah, it’s a dog ball. It’s a strategic retreat. Please correct me.]
Director 3, who had been explaining in place of the manager from some time ago,
trembled.
I tousled my hair.
I let out a deep sigh, but even so, nothing is resolved.
“Ha, it’s done. come back once I tell the manager to take good care of the
deputy directors.”
[ves.]
As for one answer, Director 3, who was very good at it, laughed hahahaha and ended
the communication as it was.
I covered the snowball with my palm.
My head is complicated.
Now that we’ve outraged the warlocks, infiltrating the abyss will be a bit more
difficult.
Making a new hideout would be a pain.
And since our Ministry of Magic had done all of these things, it was clear that
I, as the Vice Minister of Magic, would be moving forward.
I headed to the minister’s office to report the situation.
The minister was organizing papers in the minister’s office.
The papers in the secretary’s office are all neatly arranged.
In times like these, he seems like a nobleman who does one thing for sure…
“What? Why did you come?”
Received by the minister, my mouth opened.
x kw
Stella was listening to the officials in her office.
“boring.
Stella blinked as Crimson rested her chin on the properly brought pillow.
She was just listening and judging.
Her brilliant brain insights, understands, analyzes, and comes up with solutions
simply by listening to the situation.
So when bureaucrats are just reciting the problem and why it happened.
“…Your Highness, the next item is about Cadian de Yuzatran, Your Highness’s
magic professor.”
Cadian’s name came out of the official’s mouth.
Stella, who had no interest in all the topics that had been raised so far, only
then pricked up her ears and showed interest.
“Did you say Cadian?”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
“What is the agenda?”
The official appealed quietly with his head bowed.
“The amount of poems about the class he wrote is too much. Therefore, I
recommend hiring another professor besides him.”
The light of Lee Chae, who had been shining for a while, faded again. Stella
looked at the bureaucrat in front of her with disinterested eyes.
“I like him who opens it. Let’s move on to the next item.”
Stella, who showed ruthlessness by cutting off the agenda with a single knife,
doubled the speed of work.
I had to deal with this agenda, and I had to do all the assignments given by the
cheeky professor.
Looking at Stella, bureaucrats think of one thing in common.
‘…As expected, it doesn’t work.’
Even though I already appealed several times, nothing has changed.
The officials were displeased with the fact that a member of the Yujatran family
was favored by someone who had a high probability of becoming the next emperor.
Cadian de Yujatran, wizard of the Yujatran family.
Remembering him, the officials felt a deep sense of crisis.
Cadian’s name is widely rumored among nobles. At the age of 16, he joined the
Royal Guard and when the Royal Guard was disbanded, at the age of 21 he became
Vice Minister of the newly created Ministry of Magic.
Officials thought he was very young and green compared to where he was standing.
Not to mention, the family is the Yuzat family. Leone, who is talented enough to
rise to the rank of vice minister at the same age, is backed by an extinct
family.
Cadian’s background was a prestigious aristocratic family.
He was not a man from an extinct family like Leon, but a man from a prestigious
family with certain strength, so naturally the bureaucrats had no choice but to
be wary.
The Yuzatran were the imperial faction, and they were the aristocratic faction.
Moreover, Her Highness’s professor is always by Her Highness’s side.
A person who occupied a very valuable position who could give advice to Her
Highness, the 1st princess who has the highest probability of becoming the next
emperor.
Thinking of the Vice Minister of Magic, Cadian, officials sighed today as well.
They moved on to the next item.
Stella said haam and swallowed a yawn.
EE
“Here you are.”
The Deputy Minister of the Interior welcomed the Deputy Minister of Magic, who
came today as usual.
“Is it a poem?”
“Let’s say it. This is the last time.”
“Yes, yes… the last?”
I was answering without thinking, but I asked again when he said it was the last
time.
The Vice Minister of Magic nodded.
“This is the last poem.”
Maybe, the word soared to the end of my throat, but I will make this the last
time following the request of my parents.
Once again, I submitted a letter of resignation and promised myself that future
speeches would not be in my life, and I left the Ministry of Home Affairs and
took a familiar step.
It wasn’t too far from the Ministry of Home Affairs to Her Highness’s residence,
so after walking around in a daze, we arrived in no time.
Her Highness, the princess, looked at me once and then asked me strangely.
“Why didn’t you bring anything today?”
Simple. In order not to write a poem, I brought nothing with me.
Although my side is empty because there is no assignment.
‘It’s because I’m going to say it right away.’
Inevitably, the task in charge of Her Highness, the princess, was buried in my
office.
“So what are you planning to do today?”
“I’m going to tell you how to deal with mana.”
Watching Cadian answer more and more kindly, Stella twisted her eyebrows at
random.
‘Why are you being kind all of a sudden?’
The guy who threw assignments until the other day now pretends to be fine.
Stella asked softly.
“You’re especially kind today. Is this related to the value of the favor?”
= You are kinder than usual. Is this the return of the favor you spoke of last
time?
“I’m just treating Her Highness the princess as usual.”
I poked it once to read the intent, but it didn’t respond well.
she spoke timidly.
“I heard that people die if they suddenly do something they didn’t do.”
= What are you doing this for?
“I’m fine.”
= nothing. I am fine.
“Are you sure?”
= Really?
“I’m sure.”
= Yes.
As the questions and answers continued, Stella became more and more absurd.
The princess had a fever.
Ogiga, who would like to hear a clear reason anyway.
‘T wasn’t going to do this, but.’
So in the end, she pulled out her final card.
“Today, if you don’t want to receive twice as many letters of appreciation as
yesterday, just say it.”
Stella took Shimal Seo hostage.
Stella knew that Cadian would be referred to the Disciplinary Committee if only
7 more books were accumulated in the future.
So, ask
“Why the hell are you doing this? Tell me why.”
Shamefully, to Her Highness, the princess who uses her power as a member of the
royal family… Cadian eventually surrendered.
he explained why.
“It’s because I swear I won’t write poetry anymore.”
While listening to the story coming out of Cadian’s mouth calmly, Stella
laughed.
My parents were worried, so I swore that I would not write any more, so that’s
fine.
However, the fact that the attitude of the class changed after that oath meant
that he also knew about the problems in his class.
The guy who used to give a mountain of assignments and classes is now doing
normal classes.
It’s like this in the first place.
It’s so disgusting that I’m here now to do something like this.
Stella smiled mischievously.
“Do you know that?”
“What do you mean?”
“It’s not like making an oath that you can’t keep.”
A poem has been added.
This was purely Stella’s revenge.
However, after that day, there were no more poems related to the class.
The book of poems, which had to be written every now and then, as if it were an
obligation, had disappeared.
His Cadian cheered.
at las!
You are free from poetry!
However, freedom from teaching…
“What are you doing without starting class?”
Her Highness, the princess, gave me a stinging glance.
It was still too far.
