Princess In Another World: New Story
15
A few days passed, at the academy.
“Hey, what does this mean?”’
“Now, I don't know.” (Lucy)
Lucy and I are currently in the principal's room, I think I made a mistake or whatever it is but since Lucy was also called it seems like there is something else.
A while after that.
“Wah, sorry to keep you two waiting.” (Headman) The principal enters.
A man of possible age, 28 years old. But already a principal of this academy. ‘What a great.’
“You must be wondering why you two were called here.”
“Not really.” (Lucy)
“Most is also a problem about the race.”
“K-you know it, yes.” He looks quite surprised. “Already expected, I did not choose you wrong.”
The reason we know is because Iona told us before. At least only limited to the race, for more details he was also not told in more detail. “Chief of school, I want to ask you something.” (Lucy)
‘Weew, he has started acting.’ I don't know what he's going to say, but it seems interesting enough to listen to, after all, it's rare to see him take the initiative to start a serious conversation like this.
“Ya, please.”
“Why did you choose us both, instead there are better and talented students than us.”
Hearing that somehow made me feel a little disappointed by what she asked. ‘Haa, have at least asked.’ I expect him to ask something more than that, like the reason this academy is hosting that race, or something like that.
From what Iona had said, this was the first time the headmaster had accepted the proposal for a race and the academy was hosting it, whereas the headmaster had always rejected it. Although I don't know what the reason or cause is, it might not be a good thing.
“Dikadidat chosen by the teachers, you both have the most number of votes. So, that is the reason you guys were chosen.”
“Only that?” (Lucy)
“Ya, that's it.” Hearing that answer, not only Lucy but I was also a little lazy with this.
Not because it was appointed, but because it was raffled, that was the reason. “Haa, stop.” Everything has happened. “Then the principal, what should we do?”
“Hmm, it's also true this is your first year, yes. Some of your seniors will tell you what to do, I'll call them.”
“They, yes.” Number of more than 1 person. ‘It's troublesome.’
Long enough after that.
We talked a little bit about the race to be held here, at least I know a small part of the task we have to do. To be clear, the secretary said that the seniors who will teach us will tell him.
“I hope we get a beautiful and good senior, how about you?” (Lucy) Right now we are still in the office, the principal is leaving because of business, we are told to wait here because the seniors will appear soon.
“You asked about my opinion?”
“Ya.”
“Someone who is good, at least easy to talk to.”
“Only that?”
“You asked my opinion, I put forward my opinion, is there a problem?”
“Hmm, not really, but I prefer a beautiful and kind senior.”
“Haa, yes Yes.”
Thereafter.
“So they, yes. Students' choice from teachers.” (??) A voice rang out from behind us, and spontaneously Lucy and I saw it.
‘They, yes.’ 2 men, and also a girl, her age may be older than me.
“Hey, which girl is quite pretty.” (Lucy) Whispers.
“Haa, yes Yes.” I don't know what to respond to it.
“Hmm, prince Lucy along with... Who?” (girl)
“Ari.”
“Ari, yes. Sorry I forgot.”
“Ya, no problem.” Not to forget, he did not intend to remember my name, it seems because of the power factor. Yes, at least that's the case, people who have high rank will be easy to remember compared to people who do not have any rank.
“Before that, we will introduce ourselves. My name is Arel Liostin, then she is Naomi Elona, and she is Aurela F. Drika.”
“So, greetings know.” (Lucy)
“Salam also knows prince.” (Aurella)
Now I can see a difference that is quite striking, where someone who has more power is respected when here everything is equal there is no such thing. ‘It looks like something like this is indeed inseparable.’
“Ari, I heard you were close to the princess.” (Naomi)
“Not really. What's wrong?”
“No, forget it.”
“So.”
“You've been selected too?” (Lucy)
“Ya, but we are appointed as helper only. Even in other academies as support, and looking for experience. I am so envious of you who can be a direct participant in the race that will be held.”
“If you can know, what race will be held?”
“If I don't remember wrongly, there are a few races you can take part in. Magic research, strategy shootout, royal fort, fight.”.
“T-wait a minute, why is there a fight? And again, magic research. What kind of race is that?” I've never heard of this race he mentioned before, I don't even know anything.
“Hmm, you can come or not in that race. But yes, since you were specially appointed surely all the teaching staff in the academy including Round you guys want to see you guys take part in all the competitions.”
“That makes no sense, chosen just to assume great responsibility.”
“Sounds troublesome.”(Lucy) For this, I agree with her. “If you just want to give everything to a genius, only Ari should be appointed not me.”
“Hey, you want me to hit.”
“Ahaha, you are more genius than I am so naturally I say like that.”
“He's a genius? Hahaha, your prince can joke too.” (Naomi)
“Already, I want you both to listen to what we will tell you after this. I also hope you can remember.”
Long enough after that.
In class.
“Haaa, too much information I got today. It makes my head hurt.” (Lucy)
“At least you won't die just by getting some information.”
“What the fuck is that person, once spoke he directly said everything until I did not****** remembered what he said. Never mind, then what about you? Ari, do you remember what he said?”
“No, after all I just got dragged into this problem.”
“You didn't listen to it either, yes.”
“Such theory does not matter, at least for me.”
“You people who prefer to work directly, yes. It's worth it that you look like someone who has high authority and confidence.”
“I don't feel like it.”
“You don't feel it, but the people around you who have been with you for a long time will realize it.”
“Haa, why is the direction of this conversation leading to something else.”
“Hahahaha, so what race do you want to join?”
“Anything other than a fight and something related to magic.”
“Huh? If for magic I can understand, but the fight. You want to miss it? I heard among other races the race was the most festive.”
“I can't do it.”
“Although you have given a lot of training to the troops under the leadership of the princess?”
“Yes, after all they can all be like this not just because of my training, but their own will that wants to change.”
“Hmmm, just tell me you don't want to flashy.”
“Hahaha, yes that is my main reason. I don't want to look flashy. If I did something like that, it would likely be a counterattack for me.”
“Turn attacks? From what?”
“Entahlah, but at least choosing not to flashy for me is a good choice.”
“I don't understand the way you think, what you really think or what you really want to do.”
“You don't have to understand, you just have to look at it. Besides Iona, the one who can read what I think is you.”
“Princess? Can he read your mind?”
“He already knows what I want to do, but he just follows it. Yeah, even so he can't know everything. To be honest, other than you, Iona is a very genius person.”
“You think of me as a genius, that's an exaggeration for me.”
“Ya, even so there are still 1 person more.”
“Huh? Who?”
“Haaa, forget it. I don't want to discuss it now.”
“So.”
Teenage brain development can develop very rapidly, and it can be a fortune and also the beginning of a mess. ‘What he will plan next.’ Kira Anash Victoria, the prince of the Victorian kingdom who left me gravely injured. “It looks like he is planning something big.” (Bergumam)
“Huh? You said something?”
“No.” Starting from that incident, the kingdom of Victoria became a closed kingdom. The usual attacks the kingdom did stalled, it was not good news but rather a news that was quite alarming. ‘I hope the prince doesn't do anything stupid.’
