Shadow King Chronicles: Building a Kingdom From Behind the Scenes
Imperial Academy
as promised by Angelica and Agatha, this morning they will deliver Issac around to the academy.As it is Sunday, the academy will be relatively quieter than usual. this was a good opportunity for Issac to know the ins and outs of the imperial academy....
"Hey, Issac.I'm sorry.I originally wanted to take you to the academy.but because my carriage was damaged and repaired..."
Angelica stared sadly at her horse carriage that was being repaired, while Agatha only shook her head in exhaustion.
"hmmm... What if I use my train? it may not be as luxurious as you have, but I'm sure my train will make your back comfortable."
Issac offers his horse carriage to ride.he does not mind at all. Angelica and Agatha are even confused.
"You brought a chariot from the kingdom? well, it's natural that you're a noble. By the way, which one is your carriage?"
"That one."
Issac pointed to a horse-drawn carriage whose body was capsule-shaped. its size was larger than that owned by Angelica and Agatha.
"Wait on! that's yours!? so big! even bigger than the one used by the imperial family!"
"is it like that? I'm sorry that in Heinz's kingdom no one seems to protest like you, so I think that's a natural thing."
"No way! you must be lying! the people in the kingdom will definitely complain to you!"
Issac just laughed at Angelica's behavior like that. This is why she has many friends and can be familiar with everyone.she is not stiff even when she first met a stranger like Issac. he likes to joke, annoy people, but at the same time he also respects others.His nature like this reminds him of Olivia.
it took three minutes for the coachman to prepare his carriage.When Agatha and Angelica entered the chariot of Issac, they were both very amazed by the interior and the features that were in the carriage.
"I withdraw my words.This is even more luxurious and comfortable than the one worn by the imperial family! what is this padded chair and lowered backrest?! then a box that can remove warm tea automatically just by putting a glass under it?!"
"you don't need to get to Angie, but it's true.The interior design and all the features on this train are very comfortable.not excessive if this is called first class.no, no, even more powerful than first class."
they had no more words to describe how luxurious this thing was. Issac did spend a lot of time and money to produce this thing. Some nobles and the king's family met him to make things like this but Issac refused.
"Issac, you said you were the son of the Randall family, right? but why is your last name Starfall and not Randall?"
That's been Agatha's question since last night.she introduced herself as Issac Starfall, not Issac Randall. Angelica also only realized that when Agatha asked her.
"oh about that. I actually came from the Randall family, but the king gave me the title of nobility when I was about 12 years old as a Baron. and that's when I used Starfall as my last name."
Agatha nodded when she heard Issac's explanation.
"Ah sorry, but now I am a Viscount and have been given the authority to govern a territory."
"Enough! Stop getting there!"
it was not unusual for Agatha to lose her calm expression.In the end, she became Angelica's moons to ridicule.
20 Minutes after they set off, they all arrived at the imperial academy.Unlike the royal academy that had its own territory, the imperial academy was located in the middle of the city.
when viewed from above, the academy is rectangular with walls surrounding it. Inside the academy itself consists of four dormitories. but one more dormitory was devoted to students from outside the empire. There was also a library. but the library was larger and the collection was also more numerous than in the kingdom.
and despite Sunday, activity in the academy remained crowded.The number of students was also very large and almost one-third were students from outside the empire, including the Heinz kingdom. they were gathered in the middle of the academy which consisted of a wide open space and there was a huge fountain in the middle of it.
Angelica and Agatha brought Issac into the classroom.There are many classrooms here.it consists of the same order as the royal academy.
in addition to classes, Issac also visited the magic and alchemy laboratory.This is what the kingdom does not have. Here the students experiment with various new magic and other things related to alchemy.
after being satisfied to visit various facilities at this academy, Issac was invited to the cafeteria for lunch. the menu here is more diverse. Angelica and Agatha themselves only ate in the cafeteria during the lunch break. For breakfast and dinner, they did that in the mansion.
"really, I want to ask you. Mrs Heid said that there are students in the mansion too. Who are they?"
"oh, are they? they are brothers. The brother is one year above us and next year he will graduate. meanwhile his younger brother is one year below us."
Angelica gave an explanation when she finished gulping down her drink.she explained that with an ordinary expression, but in contrast to Agatha.
"I hate her.no, not her sister.the girl is a good woman.she focuses on studying and devotes herself to research.she also joins the student council membership. that makes her one of the best students here, because she's so busy, she rarely comes back."
Agatha took a sip of her apple juice. It seemed that if in the academy, she avoided wine as much as possible.
"what I hate is his little brother.he often makes trouble.whether it's in the academy or in the mansion of Madame Heid.he's an acute drunkard and often makes trouble.not only that, but also, she also likes to play women, discriminating, gamblers, and all other ulcers.she really makes trouble for her Sister!"
it seems that the relationship between Agatha and the older sister is not bad. You could say they are good friends even though not as close as Angelica, but her sister might destroy her brother's good name.
he was curious about them. Who exactly are they? what was clear was that they were nobility.it was impossible for commoners.
"If you are curious, take it easy. later you will definitely see him.he rarely goes home to the mansion because it is busy.but at least three times a week, he will definitely go home. at dinner, he will definitely be with us!"
Angelica gives an additional explanation.well, approximately what kind of person who managed to become Agatha's friend and respected by Angelica? Issac wondered.
