Her Royal Highness Seems to be Angry

Nothing happened since Saligna's visit, and a week later Leticiel celebrated his new semester.

Ask Nicole to set up a schedule and take the carriage that Luvik will see to the school. Ruvik learned to steer the carriage during the summer vacation, saying Leticiel can't do the whole thing forever.

"Then you are not going, my lady"

"Yeah, thanks"

Sending Leticiel to school, Luvik drove his carriage away. Chasing it with his eyes, Leticiel walks out towards the main building.

The main building was crawling with many students. They have each look on their face, some complaining that the new semester is cumbersome, others talking with friends about their aspirations for the new semester, etc.

"Look, it's over there!

"... well, that one...!!

When I was thinking about whether I should show my face to the class on or about the first day of the new semester, there was some yellow voice behind Leticiel.

When I turned around wondering what was going on, there was a crowd at the entrance to the main building. Most of its members are also young ladies. Remember the doubt. Leticiel gazed and saw a familiar blue hair across the crowd.

"It's His Royal Highness Lionel...! You're back!

"You were studied in the Empire, weren't you? I was wondering if you'd let me talk to you..."

I can hear the lady's voice like she's excited.

Even surrounded by so many warrants, Lionel had not ceased to grin. With a gentle smile, he gently adorns the ladies who come by.

As I watched the thing farther from across the crowd, Lionel noticed Leticiel and pulled the hedge apart and came here.

Behind him, two more boys and one girl hold back and look around. Is it Lionel's squire?

Good morning, Miss Drossel.

Leticiel also returns due courtesy to Lionel, who greets him politely.

"Good morning, Your Highness. Can you come over here?

"Yes, because I'm old enough to go to school because I'm back from my place of study"

The first prince, Rochford, born of the queen, and the second prince, Lionel, born of the second queen, are both 16 years old. That's why he integrates into the same grade as Leticiel.

"Which class does Your Highness belong to?

"It's two sets. My brother left the school, so it's a way of replacing it."

"... can His Royal Highness the First Prince quit school?

"Yes, I am now going to the suburbs for medical treatment"

Leticiel wasn't too surprised to hear from Saligna the other day that Rochford was asleep or going to therapy.

"I just incorporated and am unfamiliar with school life, thank you for coming"

With a refreshing grin, Lionel bows small to Leticiel.

"Yes, welcome"

"Is Miss Drossel going to go to class now, too?

Leticiel thinks a little into Lionel's words. When Lionel is in the same class, the classroom on this day is bound to boil back with the incorporation of the Second Prince, but Leticiel doesn't like that kind of noisy place. I want to be quiet if possible.

"No, I'm going to the big library"

I was thinking about going to class until a while ago, but Leticiel decided to push through the usual stance of not going to class lightly.

"Really? Well, I'll be first."

Lionel left with his squire. Leticiel walks out into the hallway opposite them as the ladies chase after them.

…

Second, I felt a gaze piercing my back.

Looking softly around me, in the crowd at the entrance, Krista was staring at me with a sharp eye.

Since the disturbance of the Spirit King, Krista had been pulling into her room and hadn't seen her at all, but apparently Krista had also returned to school.

Leticiel and Krista gaze at each other. From Krista's gaze, I could feel the precipitated emotions mixed with hatred, anger, jealousy, and envy.

Not that it started now, but why does Krista resent Drossel so far? Leticiel wondered what the hell had happened in the past.

Krista's figure soon becomes invisible buried in the students crossing the hall. While leaving some doubt, Leticiel went straight to the big library.

"Excuse me..."

"Whoa! You've come to a good place! I was just looking for you."

On the first afternoon of the new semester, Lucas spoke that way to Leticiel, who visited the dean's office to do his research, as usual.

"Dean of the school? What's the matter, sir?

"Delighted, Your Majesty said the research facility is complete."

To the words, Leticiel dazzled his eyes. With her eyes full of anticipation, she folds questions to Lucas as excited.

"Where is it? Where did you get the research facility? What's the scale? What's the equipment? Do you have everything you need?

"Calm down, don't ask. The research facility is located on the third floor, the top floor of this annex. I used it as a spare meeting room, but it felt like I'd remodeled it."

With that said, Lucas leaves Tsukatsuka and the school director's office and looks back at Leticiel with a grin.

"I'm going to look at the research facility, are you coming with me?

"Absolutely, Dean."

Leticiel replies instantly with a smile all shining. I was naturally looking forward to the completion of this facility from the day I negotiated with Oswald.

Following Lucas, Leticiel heads to the third floor. On the top floor of the annex, there were only a few large meeting rooms that were not originally much used, almost like a storage unit, but now the position of the walls, etc. was changed and the area was larger in creating the facility.

"Beyond this door is the research facility. Well, it's right up the stairs."

"Yes...... thank you, school director"

Leticiel couldn't wait and stormed the door with a small run to keep the burn and door open.

Beyond the door was a small hall-like space. Sofas and tables are also set up to relax.

There were several more doors in the hall. Lucas explained to me one by one as he pointed to those doors.

"The four rooms over here are research rooms. Desks, chairs, bookshelves, storage, all the furniture you need. It's always more convenient to have the materials you need for research. Your Majesty's orders have already put in a few books and materials, so if you're interested, take a look later."

So a sigh of relief, Lucas points to a door slightly larger than the others, in the front of the hall.

"And then that door in the front is on the fourth floor."

"Fourth floor...?

Leticiel tilted his neck slightly. The annex in Leticiel's memory should have been on the top floor.

"I went out of my way to break the ceiling and build another floor. Didn't you see the big dome added outside?

Leticiel hands-on her memories from this morning, but she didn't pin it because she hadn't looked properly at the exterior of the annex.

Leticiel thought to see how the exterior of the annex had changed even on the way home.

"On the fourth floor of the addition, there is a practice area. There's another empty room, but use it as a warehouse."

"Yes, thank you"

"And the practitioners were pretty forced to build it, so use it. If you're wrong, don't wear a ceiling or a wall."

"Of course it is. And don't worry, even if it breaks, we'll fix it responsibly."

"No, so don't break it!

This eliminates the need to go to the magic training ground. Leticiel was cowardly that he got a practice area dedicated to himself. Lucas, on the other hand, had headaches in many ways about what was to come.

"I'll go now because I still have work to do after this, but what do you do?

"Prepare to move. All the research results in the lab over there will be moved this way!

"... you're very motivated"

A toast to Lucas, smiling with a frightened look on his face, Leticiel gently returns to the dean's office in his footsteps. He then started moving materials from his lab to a new research facility.

"This much can be transported critically by subspace magic..."

Leticiel crushes as he packs the material into the subspace.

Subspace magic is the magic of making item boxes, as its name suggests, but it doesn't mean you can put things in infinitely.

This subspace also contains the surgical ceremonies I've rewritten, so there wasn't much room in the capacity originally, but there wasn't that much material in the lab, so I managed to get it all in at the top.

"... oh?

When Leticiel returned to the research facility that way, there was a nostalgic face in the hall of the facility.

"... Ah, hello, Master Drossel"

"Uh... I was a squire of His Royal Highness the First Prince..."

"Yes, Tuvalu."

With some material in his possession, Tubal bowed to Leticiel.

"Why are you here?

His Majesty told me to deliver the materials.

Take one from the pile of materials Tuvalu has, and Leticiel glances through.

On that paper it was written about a magic activation system, but all the information was fragmented, and it had not come to its conclusion how to activate magic.

"Where did these materials come from?

"It's from my family's research materials."

Leticiel twists his neck. What the hell is a “clan”?

"Clan?"

"Yes, I am from a clan called the Seeker."

Leticiel thinks for a moment of the name he's heard somewhere, but thinks he's left a beat behind. It sure looks like there was such a clan story in the biography books......

"Our family of seekers are scattered all over the world and their status and so on is fragmented. It just doesn't stand on the surface stage or in public at all, so being itself is like a fairy tale."

Tubal grinned bitterly as he scratched his cheek.

"The clans are in various positions everywhere, and what they're doing is falling apart. My house is for once a nobleman, but His Majesty the King has asked me to study the power of magic."

"... I see"

Leticiel is not sure about the Seeker's family, but in Tuvalu's explanation, he somehow understood why Oswald and Tuvalu knew about the existence of sorcery.

"Could it be that everyone in the clan knows magic?

"No, that's not it. We're the only ones working on magic."

"So you've known about magic for a long time?

"I knew about its existence and something somewhat theoretical. That's about it, though, using a substance called magic vegetables, and magic vegetables and magic are repulsive. I'm not very magical, so I made my own trial and error, but it didn't work..."

……

I've always wondered why Tubal would be okay with being hit by a magic vegetable, but if possession magic is low, magic and magic don't reject each other, and it would be natural not to cause a magic drunkenness.

"Still, they were studying it by hand using ancient documents and materials that the clan had passed on from generation to generation."

"Really? Is it possible for me to show you that ancient document?

"Yeah, I'll bring it next time. Tell me all about it!

Leticiel stared at Nico and Tubal, who seemed to play his voice with pleasure and let his eyes sow pure anticipation, curiosity and passion. This person......

(... Something familiar...!

In terms of research lovers, Leticiel had found something in common with Tuvalu. I was kind of in a fresh mood because I didn't have any fellow researchers in my previous life to share my research on magic.

"Is Tuvalu's family an official of the Ministry of Magic?

I was asking about the Ministry of Magic from Saligna a week ago, so Leticiel was curious to ask. Tubal blinked his eyes as surprised only for a moment, but eventually shook his head quietly beside him.

"You can't even think that, can you? But it's not. We studied independently on His Majesty's orders, and the Ministry of Magic is not involved in the research."

"Was it"

"So please don't tell me anything about my research"

I was surprised that even the country kept a secret about the magic research, but Leticiel nodded.

"Okay, I won't say anything else"

"Best wishes. Then, I am depositing a letter from His Majesty the King, so take it."

That being said, Tuvalu has taken a single letter out of his nostalgia and offered it to him.

When Leticiel received it and cut the seal, a piece of paper came out of it. There was an autograph by the king, asking Tuvalu to give us one lab, and then we had the security system in place, but we wanted ourselves to be careful.

"Your Majesty tells me to give you a lab. Could we use the far left room over there?

"I don't mind. I'm going to take care of you."

"Yeah, it's nice to meet you"

He then placed the materials he had brought with him in the library and in the lab, and Tuvalu left.

Leticiel also enters his new lab. She chose the far right room of the hall for the lab.

(Ok...... let's stick it out and do our best today!

The entrance to the lab was magically locked, and Leticiel, as usual, grabbed the desk and started studying magic.
