How to Survive at the Academy-Chapter 230

To you who survived (5)

“Ziggs, what’s on your face?”

“yes? no… Just, I have something to think about… .”

By the time Ziggs arrived at the student library to pick up Elka, the closing ceremony had already begun in the main square.

As all the splendid stages were gathered, it was an event that all students were looking forward to. Jigs must have wanted to see the stage in the central square, but Elka was sorry but thankful that he had to come to pick him up.

Asthma, a chronic disease of Elka, is getting worse day by day. The cough was so intense that it eventually led to bleeding when sneezing.

In order to be considerate of Elka, who did not want to stop studying, Ziggs moved to the dormitory and took care of Elka.

From Ziggs’ point of view, it was just natural.

If it had not been for meeting Elka and being picked up by the Islan family while walking in the grasslands in the first place, it would not have been possible to attend Sylvania Academy like this, and Ziggs’ talent would not have blossomed.

For Zigs like that, Elka is like a benefactor, so she didn’t even think that taking care of her weakened would be particularly difficult.

If it wasn’t for Elka in the first place, there was a high possibility that I wouldn’t have attended this academy.

“It’s a thought that comes to mind these days, but I think I’m living a pretty peaceful life.”

“I don’t think that’s what the kid who spent his childhood in chasing with giant wolves in the grasslands would say… Besides, even when I was living in the Islan family, every day was a series of accidents… ”

“Listen well… Elka… . That’s… It’s not even an accident… ”

“… What the hell happened to you while working for the student council, Ziggs?”

“Well… . A lot has happened… ”

“… You must be very busy just taking care of me, but isn’t it hard to do the student council work?”

“No, it’s not that hard. It has its own pleasure.”

It has a positive effect on the performance of grades, and if you are a member of the Sylvania Student Council, even if you go out of the academy after graduation, it’s a pretty good history.

Since you can’t live with the Islan family forever, it’s a pretty good condition for Ziggs, who is thinking of standing alone.

“and… Surprisingly, there are many good things about being close to power.”

Ziggs escorted Elka, and together they walked downhill along the bottom of the student library.

“Good point… ? Ziggs, have you tasted the taste of power?”

“No, it seems that power is more of a troublesome time… Being close to power allows you to see many rare scenes up close… ”

“What else is that… ”

“Nope… Still, school life is quite enjoyable these days. If I hadn’t met you, I wouldn’t have had this experience.”

“Well… I’m just an opportunity, and what you’ve accomplished while in Sylvania is your ability. You don’t have to pass the ball too much. And, you are helping me who is not feeling well.”

It was difficult to count how many times it was painful to explain that it was natural, so Ziggs just smiled instead.

“Recently, you said that you have been assisting President Tanya? What do you think?”

“Well… What kind of person do you think you are, Elka?”

“Well, the rumors say that he is a great person… What if there was no such person among the past presidents? How about as a close assistant? Are you worthy of respect?”

“Hmm… ”

Compared to my childhood, when I was chased by wolves in the grasslands, it doesn’t seem like much has improved because I’m living in the position of a chaser and hunting for Tanya. I’m glad there’s no life crisis though.

Going to catch Tanya or nursing Elka? A busy day… But even in the midst of it, there are times when I get a strange feeling.

― ‘Gee, if your real brother gets engaged to Princess Sellaha… So, the moment I ascended to the real power of the imperial family, all my retirement plans were blown away… !’

Ziggs was assisting Tanya on the way out of the royal residence and moving towards the central stage.

Seeing Tanya sighing as she scratched her head, she was acting as if she was going to die because she really didn’t want to work.

― ‘My plans for retirement for a quiet country life almost ended in vain… I’m glad my brother refused… !’

― ‘Normally, you’d be puzzled as to why you turned down such a good opportunity.’

― ‘I don’t need power. What’s the use of authority? ! I want to rest… ! I want to rest… !!’

iron ore without iron. A pathetic person who struggles because he doesn’t want to work. Luckily, sitting in the chairperson’s seat, an idiot kicking his uniform for a living relying solely on the authority of his family.

Seeing Tanya like this, some may judge it that way.

However, after a moment of silence, Tanya’s youthful and childish tone fades away. Then he recites in a quiet, low-pitched voice, as if he was suddenly absorbed into the darkness.

― ‘Then, the plan to dethrone Princess Selaha from the position of number one in the imperial family by linking the Callamore and Bloom River families should be reconsidered.’

Tanya Roth-Taylor is, in one way or another, the next heir to the Roth-Taylor family and the student body president of the Sylvania Academy.

While grunting and whining… Never reveal any gaps in crucial parts.

A back view of Tanya as she crosses the path, bows her head and mutters… There are times when there is something like an unidentified eargear on its back.

― ‘Which side will benefit the Roth Taylor family, it remains to be seen.’

In the corner of the darkened path, a ray of glare passed in Tanya’s eyes as she lowered her head.

“He’s really easygoing, and he’s such a pathetic person that I think it’s okay to be like this.”

As he went downhill in front of the student library, Ziggs spoke while supporting Elka’s shoulders.

“Still, it’s never easy to see.”

When we live in the world, there are many people who seem infinitely comfy, and act as if they are nothing human beings.

Most of them are actually happy, poor people.

However, among them there are those who, mixed with such a group of humans, hide their sharply forged senses like daggers.

Those people are really scary people.

Ziggs narrowed his eyebrows and spoke to Elka in a serious tone.

*“Don’t be blunt, what do you want?”

The event to be held in the central plaza will not be long.

After driving and watching all the stages that could actually be the highlights at once, the closing remarks of the venue are finally bursting with fireworks and it’s over.

The procession of firecrackers that fill the night sky would be a great spectacle, but the rest of the stage was actually a collection of things that had been carried out in one place on the academic stage.

Some bands’ stages, plays, magic performances, etc., will be newly prepared, but… That didn’t mean it caught my attention.

Rather, what caught my nerves was Princess Selaha, who followed me to the student square and sat me across the bench and frowned.

“I have never yielded to anyone this far.”

When the bluish hair is brushed to one side, the alluring shoulder line is revealed. It was a gesture that even those who were confident in their appearance could take.

Dresses that fit neatly and show off the shoulders are more glamorous than usual. Wherever she went, she looked like the main character, so it was a perfect outfit for Princess Sellaha.

Thanks to that, it goes without saying that the eyes of the surrounding students are gathered in one place.

Most of the students were heading towards the stage in the central plaza, but it is difficult to overlook the mysterious sight of a national princess sitting with a single student.

– ‘That’s over there… . Isn’t it Ed-senpai?’

– ‘I… Last time I was sitting with St. Clarisse, this time it’s Princess Sellaha… ?’

– ‘count… It’s the first time I’ve seen Princess Sellaha in real life… But, what happened to those two? ?’

At the eyes of the people around me who were already buzzing, I could barely hold my breath.

Anyway, the opponent is the royal family. You can’t openly sigh or be rudely rude.

“okay. Don’t admit that you’re in a pretty important position. I never thought that even Obama would listen to you. He is also a man who is good at dealings.”

“no. I was just stating my opinion as it is.”

“Do you still think I will fall for such an naive sound? Say what you think without adding or subtracting. Please do my best to fulfill all your requirements.”

Princess Selaha gritted her teeth and spoke.

Although it is still a high-pressure attitude, even this much is a very low self-esteem for Princess Selah.

Do your best to fulfill all your requirements.

Just by saying those lines, Princess Selaha would feel like she was going to die from her pride.

She is a human being who is synonymous with arrogance.

Even when the situation has come to this, he never does as much as he bows his head.

Even if the world beats him to death, he never bends as much as the last pride he holds in his heart. There is no such thing as clinging to and asking someone of lower status than you.

That belief is now to the point of sticking out my tongue.

“I have decided to do all of your requests, especially my special ones.”

“I have nothing to ask for.”

“Still… do you sound like that… ?”

― ‘No matter what happens, you should never be persuaded by Selah unnie. This is a matter not only related to my political position, but also to Ed’s position.’

― ‘The only thing Selah unnie longs for is something she can’t get. Because when you get into my hands, you lose all interest and throw it away… So, the only way to fully preserve one’s own values is to never let it pass.’

Well, let’s assume that Penia’s advice was like that.

I was well aware of the story that the stronger Selaha raised the requirements, the more she had to endure without falling over.

By the way… until when?

When can I start accepting Selaha’s requirements and act as if my stubbornness has been broken… ? To what extent can it be considered that the opponent has completely surrendered… ?

Unfortunately, I’ve never heard of that standard.

You just have to hold on and hold on… I’ve only heard stories like that. that’s natural Because Selahara is a human being, and there must be clear limits to what she can yield and bend.

However, the situation changed even more rapidly with the intervention of Emperor Chloel.

After the existence of Ed Roth Taylor became a more valuable variable in the competition for the throne than expected, Princess Selaha has bent her self-esteem more than initially expected.

It seems that he is feeling an unbearable humiliation while grinding his teeth inevitably… Exhale the lines until you hold your breath.

“I’ll give you everything you want… Surely you didn’t?”

“… ”

“It’s okay to make a bit of an unreasonable request… tell me… ”

Even if you die soon, you will be treated poorly He never gives up on a stance that seems like he’s using goodwill.

The pride that seems to pierce the sky makes the head stand upright, even if the whole body is on fire.

“My requirements are not that great… I already know roughly. Abamama almost decided me as the next emperor. If there is someone who can give a little more attention… I’m sure Abama-mama will completely bend her heart… ”

The last key might be Ed Rothtailer.

Hwang Kwon, who seemed to be able to reach her hand, but could not be reached, whispers in her ear to come close to her nose and grab me.

The desire for power, the ambition to dream of success, will continue to speak in the ear of Princess Selaha.

If you bend just this one time, you will be the next emperor.

The irresistible temptation slammed her head down. bow your head here.

We apologize for the past rudeness, and let’s continue our friendly relationship from now on. Please, I beg you, take your side just once.

It would not be strange for any human being to bow their head and pray for their hands to become their feet.

nevertheless.

nevertheless.

Even in this situation, with the splendor of glory and enormous power at hand, where all humans would have succumbed.

Princess Selaha… Never bow your head Until the very end, declare that you are on top.

Even the emperor of a country cannot help but be surprised at how wonderful it is. At this point, even God is so strong that it is ridiculous. It can be said that he has almost reached the level of belief.

“if not… I… to you… Do you think I’ll even beg… ? I think I’m going to bow my head and ask for a favor. I am Selaha Einir Chloel. The first princess of the Chlo?l Empire.”

“… ”

“You must know that. I never turn my head Even if there is an emperor in front of the nose… It seemed like I was going to make a request or make a request to someone lower than me.”

“Princess Selah.”

Can not help it.

No matter what Selaha says, I have no choice but to follow the established course. Because I don’t know what variables will happen if I drag things out of the plan because I’m guided by the judgment of the moment.

“I am the power of Princess Penia.”

At those words, Selah slammed the table and got up as if in a seizure.

“In addition… ! Another penia… ! how… Do you owe Penia anything? ?! Even if they really love each other!”

“… It’s not like that. I am not driven by those personal feelings.”

“Then why are you so loyal to Penia! Didn’t I say I’ll give it all?! Money, power, lottery for the Roth Taylor family, important positions in the imperial family… You say you’ll give it all, but you mean that you won’t even be able to hit me in front of Abama-Ama even once?! There’s a degree to that guy’s loyalty… ! It’s something I can’t understand until now!”

Princess Selaha, who lost her reason for a moment and raised her voice, suddenly came to her senses and brushed her teeth.

And he looks at me and talks.

“Yeah, gear… Do you mean that I have to bow my head and ask to listen?”

“That’s… ”

“Then will you abandon Penia and stick to me? You are really bad taste. Do you want to see me break my pride and bow my head?”

I shook my head. I vehemently denied that this was the case.

On the contrary, Princess Selaha’s expression distorted even more.

“Then what is it that keeps you away from Penia! Why don’t you keep telling me where to go! If you want, don’t you say that I’ll take care of Penia’s well-being too! how… What the hell are you complaining about?”

“Because it is not the will of Princess Penia.”

Selaha made a strange noise and swallowed her breath, then swept up her face to express her absurdity.

“When you meet Abamama, you are going to recommend Penia as the emperor’s timber.”

“That is something to think about at that time. As I said to my older sister, I think Princess Selaha is a more suitable timber for an emperor. However, I am influenced by Princess Fenia’s way and only follow her. Loyalty doesn’t necessarily follow the direction of power. I can’t give a mantra against Princess Penia, but that doesn’t mean I can’t tell a lie… I’m a little worried… ”

“like that… The feeling that it keeps giving me room makes my teeth tremble even more… ! Rather, resent me, despise me, and be hostile… !”

Selaha swallowed her breath while talking like that.

In an instant, the words jumped out without going through the brain.

It is a repetition of repeatedly scratching people’s nerves and stimulating their self-esteem, but taking a step backwards saying that they did not intend to do so.

Motion sickness seems to rise from the attitude that seems to play a mysterious tightrope with human nerves.

I don’t know if I’m aware of it or not.

To a human like Princess Selaha, this attitude is nothing short of poison.

Selaha gritted her teeth and put her hand on the table again.

And then, relax your back… Shall I bow my head once… I was genuinely troubled.

The moment when the irresistible temptation of power tries to lower her head… Again, strength in his arms.

The pride engraved in the realm of instinct somehow prevents him from bowing his head. I try to bend my stiff neck and clench my teeth, but… Inevitably, only the teeth part, but the head does not go down.

It was a very difficult situation for me to stand still, so I stepped forward and held out my hand.

“Princess Selah. Surely I didn’t tell you that you don’t have to… ”

“Shut up… Shut up… ! Shut up, shut your noisy mouth and shut up… !”

Selah’s eyes, staring at Ed, were filled with a sense of sublime will.

“On the topic of the declining Confucius fluff… I… I know who I am… . The difference between you and me… do you understand… ? I understand how infinitely high I am, and how noble I am, unlike you… I mean… ”

Selaha said that while clenching her teeth… Nevertheless, he forced his arms to bend.

And, at the end… He lowered his head and spoke.

“Please don’t.”

It was a sight that everyone in the imperial family would have doubted my eyes if they had seen it. Everyone thinks they’re dreaming.

“Come out of Penia, and stick to me.”

I am not unaware of how important it is for Princess Selah to bend her pride.

To be honest, if I had done this… From my point of view, as I only need troops for Velbroque anyway, it’s not bad to take it lightly.

But… There is a set policy.

When I accept Princess Sellaha’s request as it is, I can’t quite guess what variables will change… !

Honestly, what do you believe?

It wouldn’t be strange if some people passed the Holadang just after seeing the fact that the Princess Selah had done this, and I’m also in a shaky position…

After everything is over, Princess Selaha is in a position to not know how she will change her attitude. It means that my life is at stake. freēwēbnovel.com

So, inevitably, at this point, even though the thought of whether it would be acceptable or not…

I clench my teeth and talk.

“If you nod your head here, Princess Fenia will be sad.”

“aa!

– Bang!

Princess Selaha slammed the table and sat down with a groan as if screaming.

* ‘What does this man want?’

If you want to convince someone, you have to figure out what that person wants.

If you satisfy that part, most of it will be skipped.

However, a man named Ed Roth-Taylor can’t get over even though he’s met everything he wanted.

‘At the beginning… Isn’t he a man who would have been nothing if it wasn’t for Abamama’s favourite? Why are you holding on so firmly to such a trivial subject? ‘

Sitting on the seat opposite Ed, Princess Selaha, who stared at him for a moment, forcibly sharpened her teeth again.

Bending one’s pride and bowing her head to those below her is a fatal humiliation for Princess Selaha, as fatal as breaking her soul.

Of course, this guy knows it well. The sincerity contained in the act must have been conveyed.

Nevertheless, the behavior of the man who shakes his head is now astonishing. It is the first time that a human being has endured this harshly.

There are bound to be limits to human loyalty.

In the end, all human beings are not free from the logic of the calculation of interests.

In the end, if you can’t convince someone, you haven’t been able to accurately penetrate that person’s true wishes.

‘This I… Even after showing such a humiliating attitude, even though I let everything go… ?’

It could be.

The pride of Princess Sellaha, who never bows her head as much as anyone in the world comes… It has a value like a thousand gold to itself.

However, it may not be of any value to this man. Of course. I understand that.

But, isn’t it a day or two?

Even if he writes and persuades for days and days, this man’s steadfastness never bends his heart… The reason why this doesn’t change is because… .

really… Is it possible to stand up like that with just that loyalty?

The head of the first princess Selaha Einir Khloe, who rules the world, went down to the floor, does that mean that it can’t break the heart of a single child left behind by the declining duke Fluttering?

That fact breaks Selah’s heart. His last struggle, the noblest of the world, his sassy honor, which he considered the most valuable… It feels like being thrown away like a devoted partner without any value.

I can’t quite understand myself.

Like the scenery of the sea in the face of a storm, Selaha’s heart begins to pound like crazy. I cannot comprehend it this way. He feels as if he is denying his high authority.

Everyone has psychological defense mechanisms.

When Princess Selaha, who has broken the pride she has cherished all her life, has to accept the fact that it was all in vain.

In order to somehow protect that high self-esteem… break the flow of thought. It’s normal for any human being.

‘Only… To this guy… So far… The reason for doing this… There is no reason… this me… I can’t keep my head down for such a crude reason… ‘

I don’t want to be a person who just throws away the beliefs I’ve kept my whole life to try to break people’s loyalty.

So, you need a reason to justify yourself.

Twisted beliefs even affect our own thinking.

Not only that, the contents of the letters I’ve been writing over the past few days have been engraved in my head.

The words of courtship towards Ed Roth Taylor echo in his mind, saying he wants to hug him, hold him in his arms, keep him by his side as an adviser, and be with him until the end.

Only then, Selah begins to understand her own actions.

The reason doesn’t matter. In the end, it’s enough to convince yourself that it’s the conclusion you’ve reached at the end. The human psyche is so deceitful.

It is also an opportunity for love affair, in the end it is the same. Because everyone is of the same mind.

‘I… perhaps… this guy… really… ? … Hopefully, that’s… No way… ‘

Suddenly, Selaha turned her head to look at Ed Roth-Taylor.

Th𝓮 most uptodate nov𝑒ls are publish𝒆d on ƒreewebηoveℓ.com.

He was a man who struggled to get his hand by clenching his teeth somehow. He is a human being who never gave up his heart like a big brother.

Unexplained heat rose up the back of her neck, and Selaha was momentarily flustered.

A sensation that even Selah herself could not understand rose up on the back of her head, and she bowed her head again in an instant. This was really absurd. This can’t be real. Isn’t it a life where you’ve been wielding other people your whole life?

With that unfamiliar feeling, Princess Selaha felt a distant feeling as if she was facing a huge wall. It was the fear of facing the unknown.

*“When would it be better to schedule a meeting with the Elpelan family?”

“Once the festival is over, I think it would be appropriate when the surrounding situation calmed down. But the sooner the better.”

“All right. I will pass it on to you, Princess Penia.”

After giving instructions to Claire, Fenia put all the letters from the Elpelan family in a drawer.

Then he breathed a sigh of relief and buried himself on the sofa for the VIP.

“Everything… It’s going smoothly… ”

The proud Princess Selaha will never find a compromise with Ed. As the sluggish situation continues, the Elpelan family will feel uneasy.

However, when things seem to be going well, the best time to stay relaxed is when things seem to be going well.

It’s a plan in the first place, because there’s no way it’s going to go as it is.

“There is nothing more variable than that… I think it’ll be fine… ”

Fenia sighed as she looked at the various documents spread out on the table.

The night was getting deep.
