Still Loved Even In The New World
CHAPTER 171: Conspiracy.

I actually wanted to take Nima as well, but she seemed to be very busy with her work. Cafeterias are pretty crowded these days. It might be because the weather is getting colder, so more students are spending time drinking warm tea than doing anything else.

What I did not expect, suddenly Prince Elion and princess Sophia wanted to join. Well I don't mind either. In fact, I think the more people who come, the better.

I invite them all to ride the pegasus train more lively and fast. Not only do I want to show off, but this winter, the streets of the city will be covered with slippery ice, so without any special magic equipment attached to the horses and carriages, he said, then the horse-drawn carriage could not pass through the streets of the city.

Of course the Rosefield family had such a horse carriage, but it was too complicated. I prefer the more comfortable and fast Pegasus horse-drawn carriage.

My Pegasus horse-drawn carriage can fit up to eight passengers. So, I only need one horse-drawn carriage pulled by four pegasus. I, Prince Elion, Princess Sophia, Liris, Stern, Ilma, and the two royal servants all sat in the horse carriage while Khaim sat in front along with the coachman.

Although it's winter, but this train is covered by protective magic that can protect it from the wind and cold in winter. So, there was no need to worry that Khaim would freeze to death even if he sat down with the coachman.

"I don't expect that Miss Filia has a horse carriage pulled by monsters."

Ilma: "Daughter always brings surprises."

A female royal servant suddenly said. Responding to it, I just smiled and Ilma was the one who gave it an answer. In this world, carriages pulled by monsters did exist, but usually interesting monsters were monsters like lizards or strong wild boars to pull heavy loads.

It was rare for a carriage to be pulled by a monster like a pegasus. If anything, it might be another horse-shaped monster that cannot fly.

Elion:"This is the first time I've seen a pegasus. I've only seen it in storybooks, I didn't think I could see it in person today."

Philia:"Is pegasus rare?."

I'm pretty curious about that. Pegasus in Alterion is not rare and often encountered, but pegasus is like the kind of star dust pegasus I have, it is very rare. At first glance, it was almost no different from a normal pegasus, but the star dust pegasus would have dust-like light particles in its mane and tail that would flutter while flying.

Moreover, when stepping on the ground, their feet would let out a spark of exquisite blue glowing dust. But, their appearance was only an addition, the main thing was that they had incredible speed and endurance, much better than ordinary pegasus. In addition, they can use strong racial magic when they feel threatened.

Sophia:"Yeah. Pegasus is very rare. According to what I know, only the archbishop of the star church and the templar star knight of the theocratic Euriga have it."

Euriga theocracy, a country that considers that they are saints blessed by the Goddess of the stars. They never interfered in the conflict between the empire and the kingdom. Nonetheless, according to father, they are a very ambitious country.

With a horse carriage pulled by a pegasus, the journey from the academy to the Lounge was extremely fast.

Filia:"Let's go in."

I led them into the lounge. Once inside, we were greeted by large brown statues protected by glass boxes. Each statue is no less than two meters tall and consists of various beautiful shapes.

With the promotion from Miss Lydia in the trade guild, many people visited this place every day. Even the name Chocolate House has been heard up to the neighboring city. This is the effect I want. I want to open another branch and gather more information.

Sophia:"It's chocolate, right?!."

Filia:"Really."

"Welcome!."

Suddenly I heard a very sweet voice. As I turned to the origin of the voice, I saw a little girl who was five or six years old with her pink cheeks who still had baby fat. Sia was wearing a lacy little servant outfit. Very humorous. I couldn't help but grab her cheek and squeeze her.

"T, sir." (Honorary designation of subordinates to employers, not a designation for male guests).

Philia:"How are you."

"S, I'm very kind, thanks to sir."

Her still sweet and innocent voice was really pleasant to hear. From the second-floor staircase, I saw a graceful middle-aged man with long white hair leading over a dozen children down the stairs.

The man looked to be around 60-70 years old with a friendly face. She was wearing black butler clothes and walked very gracefully.

"Welcome, Your Majesty."

Philia:"Yes."

He bowed respectfully towards me. After getting a response from me, he straightened his body and his eyes just looked at me. Don't judge her wrong. Even though he looks like a harmless old man, he is one of the Shadow whom I assigned to take charge of this place.

Philia:"You did a good job."

"Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty."

Even though there were princes and princesses, he still called me His Majesty and never paid attention to anyone else. However, since I saw that the prince and the princess did not mind, I let it go. After all, shadows were set to be the best dark hand loyal to their master, so they would never bow their heads to others even if they were threatened with death.

I turned my attention to the group of children who also welcomed me. Their circumstances were very different from when I first met them. Although this was not too long ago, but their development was already seen very clearly. Their bodies were now much more groomed and no longer thin bodies. They are like soft children in general with smooth skin like butter.

This is good, it indicates that my efforts are not in vain. In addition to those children, behind them were also two reddish-brown-haired adult maids that looked identical. Only their haircut style makes others realize that they are two different people.

These two were the two servants I hired to take care of all the needs of these children and teach them etiquette and common sense so that they could serve the nobility in the louge.

Finished greeting them, I led the prince and the others to take one of the private rooms.

"Soge away."

As we climbed the stairs, suddenly there were some people who passed us violently. Seeing such a thing, the shadow would immediately move, but I stopped it. I saw five people who were ahead of us. They wore hooded black robes that prevented others from knowing their identity.

On the black robe was a picture of a purple dragon head. The design of the robe was very similar to the robe worn by the person in the recording sent to me at that time. With such attitude and appearance, willing to be seen like anything, they really look like suspicious people.

Filia:"Drakule, keep an eye on that man."

Drakule:"Understand, Your Majesty."

Shadow immediately broke away from the entourage and ascended first to the second floor. Because shadow and I use mental strength to communicate with Sling, so the others don't know what shadow wants to do.

Finally, it was Lira who led us to the private room that had been provided. The room was very large with two tables. The first table is equipped with a beautifully carved wooden chair that is used for eating, while in the corner, there is another table with a soft long sofa, very suitable for relaxing.

The lighting in this room can also be set whether you want to bright or dim. Not only that, those who have a membership card, they can order a room that is specially arranged according to order. But since I just want to relax, so let it be as it is.

Filia:"You can order what you want, I'll cover all the costs."

Sophia:"But, does that not trouble you, Miss Filia?."

At first they were confused about how to order. There is no list of food available like anywhere else. Lira finally taught them.

They just need to put their hands on the table and drain the mana towards the table. The edge of the table is lit up and brings up a holographic screen that presents a complete list of food and drinks. The technology used here is the same as the one used at Moon Palace, so everything is very sophisticated.

In addition, because the name of the food and drink in this place is very foreign, so there is another function on that table.if a customer clicks on one of the names of the food, the name of the food is, then the food will be displayed as a three-dimensional holographic image on the table before the message so that customers know what food they will order.

I sat on the sofa holding my head. I closed my eyes and contacted Drakule with mental communication.

Drakule:"Your Majesty."

Filia:"How?."

Drakule: "It seems like they are talking about something about the coming of the god."

Filia:"Connect the surveillance camera with me."

Drakule:"Yes, Your Majesty."

Immediately, in front of me appeared a holographic screen that showed another room. From the surveillance camera, I could see suspicious people sitting together at the round table discussing something. Maybe because they felt safe, they opened the hood and showed her face.

I'm not really curious about what they look like. It was because the moment they passed me, I could instantly tell what they were like by using the detection of mental strength.

Of the five, three were men, while the other two were women.

"The first stage failed. We need to find another way."

One of the women said after biting a piece of chocolate.

"How could the academy be so strict. They even found the black fire powder we smuggled."

"I heard from the Bertras children that in the academy there was an organization that would enforce the rules of the academy and supervise the actions of the students. That organization seems to have great rights in the academy."

"Are we able to get some noble children to control that organization and make that organization useful to us?."

"Difficult."

A muscular plontos man said.

"Why?."

The slender woman holding the cigarette pipe asked in confusion. Maybe he thought that just because the organization was run by students, so he could use the students to be their puppets by influencing them. What a ridiculous thought.

"Although the ones running the organization are low-level students, but they are not children that we can easily influence."

Another woman who was quiet from the beginning suddenly spoke in a quiet voice. Judging from the way he spoke, it seemed like he had more information than anyone else in the room.

"Is that a prince and a princess?."

"Yes. And there's another one. She's the Rosefield family's first daughter."

"With him, it will be difficult. Even the Bertras family's son who was trying to cultivate strength in the organization was expelled directly."

The muscular man replied.

"Was he not afraid of offending other nobles and looking bad in the eyes of the nobles."

Another man expressed his doubts. Judging from his attitude, it did not seem like he was from this country. I'm getting curious about these people and what their purpose is.

"Hump.... Since when did the Rosefield family need the good opinions of others?. It is precisely another noble family that wants to look good in the eyes of the Rosenfield family."

"It seems so. Then, I heard he had an accident and almost died a while ago."

"You mean, the failed imperial plan?!."

Those words immediately caught my attention. I have indeed guessed and gathered some clues about the death of 'Philia', but I still cannot conclude completely. Now, like they know something. It's interesting, very interesting.

"Then, can we do something for him?. If he is not around, our path in the academy will become easier. The prince and princess will not be able to stop us."

The man seemed to be very urgent about something. He seemed to be very interested in the academy and did everything in his way. I still can't even guess what they're up to with the black flame powder. At least, I haven't been able to connect the lines.

"Do we want to get rid of it?."

The woman with the cigarette pipe made a suggestion.

"Your Majesty."

Suddenly the sound of Drakule's voice sounded. His voice was filled with thick killing intent. If I were to order the lives of those people, I was sure that a moment later, there would be five heads lying in front of me.

Filia:"No need to rush. I still want to enjoy this good show."

Want to get rid of me?. I'd be so happy to wait for it

"No, we can't do anything to him at the moment, at least not directly. Right now the kingdom is watching us, and also the position of the Rosefield family's daughter is very complicated. If we're a little careless, maybe our plans for years will be lost."

I just noticed. I felt that the quiet woman seemed to have a cool head and was more rational than anyone else in the room.

"Then, what are we going to do?."

"Don't be in a hurry, I'll think of something."

Oh, it's getting more interesting. I'm really looking forward to what you're gonna do next...

I'll be waiting...
