After the dance with the captain, it was the usual faces, including the director, waiting for us.

Director, division chief, I danced in place of Mr. Intelli Eyeglasses.

How did that happen, to restrain the people around us?

There were a lot of people trying to get close to [the Virgin] on this occasion.

He signed me up for a dance and was about to tell me this story while I was dancing.

At first, I didn't realize there were people like that, but the director told me.

When I looked around, my gaze at the prey was focused here, and I couldn't help but notice a tremor running down my spine.

After all, thanks to the work of the directors, no one approached me at the ball.

It would have been very helpful if they had told me to deal with it alone.

Such a ball is over and peaceful days are back again.

I was also wondering if there was any contact from strange aristocrats because of the public presence.

But unexpectedly, the surroundings were calm.

"Peace."

"What's up?

In the director's office of the institute, whining while serving coffee to the director, the director, who was lifting the cup and enjoying the fragrance, raised his gaze.

"From the unveiling, you said it was peaceful, nothing changed."

"Oh. Aren't we dealing with it at the royal palace?

"In the royal palace?

Leaning his neck at the word "deal" in the royal palace, the director explained in detail.

Thanks to the directors guarding me at the ball, no one approached me.

It's just that if everyone gives up on it, it's not.

The director said that people who couldn't give up were sending invitations to tea parties and balls to the Royal Palace in an effort to get to know [the Virgin] somehow.

"I've never received an invitation."

"Isn't that why the civilians politely refuse?

"Are you?

"I guess the demon crusade isn't over yet, huh? I guess you're turning me down on that pretext."

"Right. I haven't been there lately, but as soon as the black marsh is confirmed, I'm going to be there."

This one's the same, and I haven't heard from him that we found a black swamp.

But they are on standby so that they can be deployed as soon as they are found.

Of course, the crusade of demons takes precedence over tea parties, etc., so it is a convincing story that we are returning an absentee reply on the grounds of crusade.

"Then it's going to be another study trivia day for a while"

"Ha, right"

Was it flagged that I was laughing and talking to the director, and this prospect was soon to collapse.

I was about to leave the director's office, and the door was knocked.

When the director responds, a clerk enters the room with his servant.

It was the words, with the Director, to come to the Royal Palace immediately, conveyed by the seriously expressing clerk.

I couldn't take anything, and when I went to the royal palace with Mr. Civilian, I was led to His Majesty's office.

Unexpectedly look at the director for being guided to His Majesty's office, not to a normal room.

When I entered the room shortly after exchanging words, there was also a Chancellor with His Majesty the King.

With all your history, I wonder what the hell you've been summoned to do.

"You've come a lot. Hang up."

"Yes."

The Chancellor advised me to sit on the couch on the reception set.

When I sit down with the director, the squire will prepare tea in the meantime.

The smell of tea drifted around, but I can't afford to enjoy it.

Oh, my God, the caller's office is at the top of the country.

Although His Majesty and the Chancellor are the same as usual and have a serene look, what can I do for you?

His Majesty opened his mouth as he was thrilled to hear what he was told.

"Thank you for attending the reception the other day, as well as the ball"

"Oh, no. Welcome and thank you for inviting us."

Let's start with the public discourse and talk about the unveiling in the meantime.

I was worried about whether I should say thank you for being invited, but I couldn't even think of any other thoughtful words.

Undoubtedly, His Majesty smiled troubled when he conveyed his gratitude with care so as not to become doubtful.

"Has anyone tried to make contact with Lord Sei after the meeting?

"No. So far, there's nothing like being able to speak up, especially from people you don't know"

"Right. Then it's okay. If anyone is going to cause trouble, I don't want you to hesitate to say it. Let's deal with this here."

"Thank you"

Isn't it because of the way His Majesty said it, that he was dealing with something in the royal palace, as the director said?

Is it possible that from now on, invitations and other things will reach the institute?

When in doubt, the Chancellor gave a supplementary explanation.

He was right about what the director was saying.

According to the Chancellor's story, the Royal Palace now seems to be in charge of [the Virgin] 's contact points on social matters.

All the invitations to the Tea Party and the Ball to the [Virgin] have been sent to the Royal Palace?

By the way, they say this response is customary.

Until now, [the Virgin], who has been discovered in this country, has also been of civilian origin.

Unlike those of aristocratic origin, such [Virgin] said that the royal family had been guardians for generations because there was no one to back them up.

I guess the response to me summoned from different worlds also mimicked the [Virgin] from the civilian population.

If you want to sort the invitations yourself, the Prime Minister also suggested that you forward them to the Institute, but politely declined.

Because I can't see the name of the person who sent me and tell if I should hang out with you or keep my distance.

I've had various lectures at the Royal Palace, but you're still understudied.

Besides, I don't feel like actively engaging in politics or getting into socializing.

I'm wondering if I should work at the institute and respond to what only [the Virgin] can do later, if I can live on my own.

So I told you that I would not socialize aggressively, and I decided to have it handled by the royal palace.

Nevertheless, were you called today to explain this?

His Majesty opened his mouth again as he finished his conversation with the Chancellor and thought with a sip of tea.

His Majesty's atmosphere turned into a tight one.

Looks like that's the real deal from here.

"Actually, next time, an international student will come to my country, but I would like the Institute to cooperate a little"

"Cooperation?

In His Majesty's words, the director gives a strange look.

When it comes to cooperation with international students, do you even come to visit the institute?

But if that's all, I don't know what I meant when I was called.

Waiting for the continuation of His Majesty's words, I wondered what it meant, and the Prime Minister gave me an explanation.

I have a deal with this country, and a prince from one country is coming to study abroad next.

I haven't had that kind of interaction before, but they suddenly offered to come from the other side to study abroad.

Anything, the prince seems to be interested in different cultures and technologies than his own, and he's still studying in different countries?

And while studying abroad, I basically decided to study at the Royal School (Academy), but he also had a request to visit a number of institutes.

The laboratory in the Royal Palace is all about studying state-of-the-art technology in the country, and there are many things that people from other countries can't show.

However, he decided to show it to the best of his ability, considering his future relationship.

However, that's where the problem was with the Institute of Medicinal Plants.

They also included our laboratory in the laboratory designated by the prince.

The research itself, like other laboratories, should only show what can be shown.

It's me that's gonna be the problem.

It was a story that people from that country would know about the existence of the [Virgin] that is unique to this country.

But it is the sire's expectation that they will not know until their detailed abilities.

As for His Majesty, you want to keep [the Virgin] 's abilities as secret as possible, so you want to refrain from making contact with international students and me?

So, what do we do?

That's what I was called to talk to you about today.

The plan from His Majesty's men was to spend time in the royal palace while there were international students and not go to the institute.

However, it is unrealistic not to go to the laboratory at all.

Sometimes he wants to see how the herbs growing in the laboratory's herbal fields grow...

The question is what to do around it.

Nevertheless, it's a sudden story, so I don't have a good idea right away.

Maybe I should take it back once, consider it with the director, and then answer it.

He said the director had the same idea, and this story was to have a seat again.

At the end of the conversation, before taking his seat, he questioned His Majesty about what bothered him.

What do you care? We haven't talked before.

"By the way, which country are international students from?

"It's a country called Zaidella."

Cold sweat slipped down my back, wondering if I might have done it to some familiar country name.
