Isaac

“It's been a while.”

Isaac greets Duke Coduroy with a grinning smile. I asked him where he was going to travel again, but he told me that I would run and meet him if I was obsessed with the sound of him accompanying me, and Isaac delegated his authority to him to say yes.

While Codnell was devastated by the power of attorney stamped with Isaac and Liberia's seal, Isaac was able to take Lizley to the campus and meet Duke Coduroy.

“I knew you weren't just a kid. ”

“Did you notice? ”

“It's not uncommon for a dead man to have eyes. ”

Duke Coduroy's words shrug Isaac, and Coduroy glances at Isaac for a moment.

“The College has been in charge of training Central agents. ”

“That means there are some people who are dissatisfied with my intervention. ”

“The training ground is shared. If you want, I can support some of the instructors. ”

“I don't need it. ”

“…… Are you sure? You won't be able to manage those people on your own. ”

In Corduroy's words, Isaac pointed to Libya.

“She'll take care of everything. I just need you to make one thing clear. Don't let anyone in on my training. ”

“Me too? ”

“I'm annoyed when someone gets in the way and I quit. ”

At Isaac's words, Corduroy nods, staring at Ziggy Isaac.

“Got it. I'll tell the Instructors. I have a place to stay. Get some rest.”

At Coduroy's words, Isaac turns away without saying goodbye, and Libya bows to Coduroy in a frozen posture and follows Isaac.

Corduroy, who was watching the door after the two of them left, sighed as if he was leaning on his back.

“It's complicated.”

A middle-aged man of dark royal appears from the shadow behind the chair, muttering corduroy.

“What do you think?”

“Like the warden said, it looks like you woke the monster. A monster supported by the Queen. ”

“The Secret Service is with the Queen. ”

“I had no idea it was the Secret Service. ”

“A trick to weaken the power of the Dark Royals. ”

“I wish it were that level...... but can Dark Royal handle it? ”

“The other departments, as well as the other departments, have put agents in separate Dark Royals. ”

“Don't forget, I'm more than willing to cooperate, but I want to keep things going. As soon as the common enemy is gone, I don't think this world will turn into a war zone for Humans vs. Gentiles. ”

“…… I'll keep that in mind. ”

As the middle-aged man disappears into the shadows again, Duke Coduroy makes a short sigh. Suddenly I wonder what Isaac would say if he knew what was going on.

“Is it over already? That was quick.”

“What the……. ”

Libria never forgets a word with a surprised look on her face. I had a hunch that I wasn't being treated well. I would have done it myself.

When I saw the accommodations I was assigned, I thought,

A building in the middle of the forest, away from the College. A retreat space without any amenities, combining a simple form of building and a small barracks and warehouses used for outdoor training.

All I could think of when I was training at the college was a sigh, but the building had changed since I met Duke Coduroy.

A member of the Northbears who was following Isaac demolishes the building and builds a very large tent. It's even more problematic since you followed Isaac into the tent. The kitchen and bar are stocked with sofas and beds.

“Yi, when did you prepare this? ”

“They're trying to mess with me. They're everywhere. Even if it wasn't, I wasn't going to use the College Facility. This is a lot easier. ”

That's right. The tent itself has all the amenities, including an air purification facility.

“Don't worry. The deputy director's tent is ready. ”

“But you're remodeling a training facility without permission! ”

“Stay in that shitty building if you have a complaint. ”

Isaac's already wrecking and irresponsibly speaking attitude caused Libria to tremble, but Isaac threw himself onto a dedicated couch that had been airborne in New Port City.

“But where's Rizzley? ”

Isaac asks, and the young Northbears' bodies flinch. Isaac wonders about the reaction, and Rizzley walks into the tent.

I curled up and looked at Rizzley, stumbling on her feet, and asked Isaac with a curious expression.

“Are you sick? ”

“Hahaha. I fell on my way over. ”

There's no need to whine about the sturdy Northbears' fall, but Isaac turns his head in a crooked fashion.

“Just get me a drink. This is the training headquarters from now on. ”

“Yes.”

When Lillia steps forward to say a few words on Isaac's attitude, the tent she made as the entrance to the tent opens wide and Lacha comes inside.

“Yay! I'm back! ”

“…… Ah. I forgot.”

Isaac greets Lacha with a gaze filled with annoyance. I forgot to look for a while, but I think I was at the college.

“Why are you still here? ”

“Wow! Isn't it too much to ask for a cute, pretty, adorable successor? ”

Whether she was disappointed by Isaac's brutal reaction, Leysia mutters and clings to Isaac.

“What's going on? ”

“Tsk! You don't even say hello? ”

Raisha folds her arms tightly, puffing up both balls, and turns her head, but Isaac takes the glass Rizzly gave him and drinks it.

“So, why did you come? ”

“Yep! Surveillance sent me to monitor you. ”

Everyone sniffs at Lacha's bombing remarks and opens their mouths. It's a public secret, but you can't blame it on the party.

Isaac nods in Lacha's words as if he knew.

“Good. Pass. Appoint Director's Assistant. ”

“Wow! Thank you! I'll work hard!”

“Wait! Can I appoint one so easily?" ”

Despite her brakes on Isaac's decision, Isaac looks fat.

“One or two. ”

“There's something else. ”

“Who?”

“Hey!"

Following Leisha's finger, a ball of white fur peeks out at the entrance tent.

“What are you doing there? ”

Knet's gaze disappears, furious, and he hesitates.

Knet crouches in front of Isaac, then hesitates with his feet flat on the ground standing behind him.

When people saw him, he was cute enough to smile at his father, but Isaac looked down at Knett with an indifferent look.

“Did something wrong? ”

“…… Isaac, are you angry? ”

“Why would I? ”

“... I couldn't protect Isaac. ”

As she squeezes her fingers together and looks at Isaac's clean eyes, Libria turns her head, resisting the urge to hold on to him at least for a moment.

“When did I ask you to protect me? ”

According to Isaac, Knette shakes her head.

“So you want to protect me? ”

This time nod vigorously.

“Then protect it from now on. ”

“Yes! I will protect Isaac. I'm on Isaac's side! ”

“Come here. ”

As he resolutely grabbed his loving hand and shouted, Isaac slapped him on his knees like a dog and hugged Isaac sitting in his lap.

The Northbears, who saw it clearly, twist their whole bodies in an odd shape, whether their hands and feet were ogred or not, and turn their backs in fury at the cool gaze of Knette, whom Isaac did not notice.

“Hehe! You only like Knette! That's too much!”

Leisha sits next to Isaac, muttering to see if water is coming out and burying her face in her shoulders with her arms crossed.

‘You look like you have a dog and a cat. ’

You mutter to yourself and look at the Healthy Libria.

“Well, what is it? ”

Is Libria a cipher? ’

Isaac bites his cigarette in his mouth with one free arm, thinking that he can never get it out of his mouth.

Training preparations were well underway under the direction of Livilla. The College instructors snorted and wanted to say something, but they glanced at Duke Coduroy's stern gaze and turned back.

The training ground is full of new Central recruits every morning. Whether rumors had already spread, the trainees looked curious around Isaac's tent, especially those who volunteered for the Secret Service, but they couldn't just watch under the watchful eye of the instructors.

However, even if it wasn't Isaac, many wanted to see the legendary presence of Libria in the college, so they didn't stop looking.

As the day passed, the friction between Isaac and Libria grew closer to the arrival of the trainees.
