Chapter 207 - Entrance Exam and Valentines Day [4]



「I’m sorry for calling you all of a sudden. Were you surprised?」

「Yes, I was really surprised.」

We casually came here expecting to see our homeroom teacher, but it was the sovereign of our country who was waiting for us.

Anyone would be surprised by something like this.

「I’m sorry. However, as Tenshi-sama said, this was literally a sudden visit. I got the call just a while ago and cleaned the room in a hurry.」

Sensei sat down in her work chair, saying so.

「Well, let’s get into some serious talk. Be careful of the Noble Faction. From their point of view, the moment Allen falls into their hands, it is the same as the Imperial Kingdom falling into their hands.」she said strongly, looking straight at me.

「I understand very well the plight of the royal faction. But why do the noble faction hold such strong power?」

「About that… Well, I guess it doesn’t matter if I tell you about it.」

Sensei took a quick look at Ria, and then said so.

「Tenshi-sama’s『Wendy family』has a national policy of frugality. Due to putting the people’s interest first, this country’s tax rate is the lowest among the Five Great Powers. The government’s annual revenue is very small, but the lives of the people were enriched.」

She paused before going into more detail.

「But at the same time, the noble faction gained too much power. They abused the law and measures for the common people, and fattened their pockets to the extent where one lifetime wouldn’t be enough to spend it all. In addition, some nobles made illegal donations to various parties, increased their power, and became great nobles. And the result of the repeated corruption over the past few generations is the overwhelmingly advantageous position the noble faction is sitting in right now.」

「I see…」

Apparently, the crisis of the royal faction has been slowly built over the years.

「Rodis Arcstria of the royal faction, who judged things will become worse if left as is, managed to persuade the previous Tenshi-sama to step down, and backed Tenshi Wendy Ringard, who was only ten years old at the time. The noble faction rejoiced『the surrender of Arcstria』and welcomed it unconditionally thinking it was the formation of a puppet government. However, Tenshi-sama, who possesses extraordinary ingenuity, made an『unthinkable move』on the day she ascended the throne.」.

「An unthinkable move…?」

「She announced that she will enter into a『pact』with that infamous Rize Dorahain.」

The three of us widened our eyes at the appearance of the unexpected name.

「The connection between『Bloody Fox』and『underworld』was already famous since that time. It was unheard of for the sovereign of a country to enter into a pact with a person of the underworld. Of course, the noble faction opposed strongly and put strong pressure on Fox Finance. Rize’s establishment was devastated, and they even set fire to her mansion in Drestia.」

「T-That’s terrible!」

「Uwaa, they must not love their lives…」

「Unbelievable idiots…」

Ria and Rose’s reaction was the exact opposite of mine.

「And the next day, the subordinates of the noble faction who ransacked Rize’s establishment -『disappeared』.」

「…Disappeared?」

「Aa, yes. I don’t know how, but all of them disappeared without any trace. The Holy Knights who conducted an arduous investigation, were unable to find even a strand of hair, let alone the bodies. Rize uses an unidentified strange soul dress. In all probability, I’m sure it’s her doing.」

Sensei continued to talk with a serious expression.

「This mysterious incident threw the noble faction into major chaos. Meanwhile, Rize, who had gained the country’s backing, expanded Fox Financial right away, and Tenshi-sama went on to restrict the nobles. Five years later, she’s been trying so hard, but… After the end of the agreement period with Rize, the noble faction gained one of the Seven Holy Swords into their hands, acquiring overwhelming military might. It was a little long, but this is the history between the royal and noble factions.」

And now that all the talks were concluded,

「Nee, I know I’m only saying this after hearing it all, but… Wouldn’t it be bad if I heard this story?」

Ria, the princess of Vesteria, asked so, scratching her cheeks slightly.

It would surely be bad if the decay of internal affairs of the Imperial Kingdom was known to the princess of a foreign country.

「No, it doesn’t matter. Decay of the Imperial Kingdom is well known among the top brass of the country. Besides, Ria’s father, Gris, also knows it all too well.」

Sensei said with a bitter expression.

And when an indescribable heavy atmosphere loomed,

「Well, let’s end the serious talk there and… Let’s move on to the main issue at hand!」

Sensei clapped and said with a cheerful voice.

「You three, especially Allen, I have a little favor to ask.」

「Favor…?」

「Aa, yes. Allen, I want you to supervise this year’s entrance exam.」

「…Eh?」

Sensei took out the『Admission Application Guidelines』of Thousand Blade Academy while uttering such a ridiculous thing.
