Chapter 405 – Chapter 405 Magic School Shutra (3-16)
“Karin-sama… You hate Louis more than you hate him.”
“… What?”
A sister hates her brother?
‘… Wait, isn’t that obvious?’
[….]
Come to think of it, I hate my sister too, but since I haven’t seen her for a long time, I’ve forgotten the obvious fact.
I had completely forgotten whether it was because I met a unique case like Cho Seo-hyun.
Thinking of my older sister after a long time, I got a little angry, and I thought to myself while feeling a sense of sympathy for Louise.
‘Bastard, I’ll avenge your sister right now.’
[….]
While I was drinking kimchi soup by myself, Luna calmly began to explain.
“Karin-nim has been a very outstanding person since childhood.”
She says that in whatever field she taught one, she was a woman who had awakened ten, and she used that enlightened ten to understand a hundred.
If the teacher puts the first button well, she is a genius enough to mend clothes with that knowledge and eventually make clothes.
“Back then, Lewis wasn’t as talented as he is now.”
“Then it was fine at the time, but later we went and got along….”
“No. From then on, she didn’t get along.”
Haha….”
He explained that even before the two people’s talents were reversed, it was an atmosphere of conversation with a cactus in their mouths every time they said a word.
A relationship that is impatient because each other can’t eat each other.
But I was a bit puzzled.
‘No matter how bad our relationship is, it’s hard to be that bad since childhood.’
[Perhaps….]
Armonia came up with a guess.
[The ship may be a sibling.]
‘Ohh!’
It was a very persuasive guess, but unfortunately, Armonia’s guess was wrong.
Luna heard me and shook her head.
“That won’t be it. I have never heard of such a thing.”
“Then, even though they’re siblings, they’re not that close.”
She was Luna, who had known Luis since she was a child, so it must be reliable information.
Anyway….
In the past, Karin was in a far superior position, but the situation began to reverse when Louis’ talent shined through.
Louis, who had awakened to his magical talent, received attention enough to devour all of Karin’s achievements so far.
On the other hand, Karin….
“Karin-sama… It has already been concluded that he has no talent for magic.”
“Hmm….”
It was unclear exactly how bad Karin’s relationship with Louis had been.
But she wouldn’t have been easily convinced if a woman with her talent suddenly fell behind, and a wall she couldn’t overcome was built.
Because of that, she wouldn’t have any pride left to mend her relationship with Luis, and it could be assumed that she turned into what Luna said she really hated.
“Karin-nim, Louise and I are on good terms, so she must not have liked me either.”
“Hmm….”
In addition, since Luna also had a talent for magic, her jealousy must have bloomed.
But even so, Luna didn’t do her gossip about her.
“But he secretly took care of me when I was having a hard time. Of course, after it calmed down to a certain extent, the conversation was cut off again.”
“… He is a good person.”
First of all, according to Luna’s evaluation, she couldn’t be called a villain.
But at the same time, she could see that her intentions in approaching me were not pure.
[If you have a bad relationship with Lewis, you could be an ally, but on the other hand, it could be a ploy to just use Suho.]
‘It’s saying that if it’s a trick like that, I’ll have to punish it.’
[….]
Why? It’s good if you give me trouble If only it was sex….
As I meditated on Karin, Luna grumbled as she pursed her lips.
“Whoa… I wore it hard, but they don’t even pay attention to me.”
The dress Luna is wearing now is of a much higher quality than her usual dresses.
Luna threw off her light-colored dress, which she had been showing off, and she boldly put on a black dress.
They were gathered evenly with her breasts slightly exposed, and the hem of her was a black dress that trailed slightly on the floor.
It was a glamor-filled outfit that made her Luna’s silver hair stand out thanks to her dress covered in black.
I slowly walked up to her Luna and hugged her from behind.
“Sorry…. Could it be that you are not interested? Rather, it’s because I’m afraid that if I pay too much attention to it, I won’t be able to stand it again.”
“Huh…. You speak well.”
“Really? So even now….”
“Now, wait a minute! No!”
Luna hurriedly pushed me away and said urgently.
“This is the dress I just wore. If there is a problem, you have to fix it again… Then I have to call someone else.”
The maids are beings that can be called casually, but when they see Luna’s condition, they will be sure of it beyond her doubts.
The relationship between the two of us….
Despite her Luna’s stubbornness, I gradually began to embrace her.
Luna continued to struggle with her body as if she was grumbling.
‘I can’t… If this….”
I gently put Luna’s hair in her hand as she kept muttering, and in that state, I put her lips on her hair and said.
“Are you ready? Miss Luna Stadtfeld?”
“Ah… Lord, I’m ready.”
“Okay then let’s go.”
Luna, who was walking side by side with my escort, hummed quietly.
“I am also good at teaching.”
..
..
The banquet was boring.
Louis and Luna were already swept away by the crowd and were talking nonstop with them.
Sonya was dealing with other nobles, accompanied by a knife.
Louis and Luna were warmly welcomed as rumors circulated that they were originally from Levin and that they had received high grades this time.
No matter how much Luna was a fallen aristocrat, since she had the first rank in Stra, people would flock to her.
Usually, women or older high-ranking nobles approached Louis, and younger male nobles approached Luna.
I wanted to gossip the group of nerds in front of Luna right now, but I refrained from looking over their heads.
‘I remember all your names. Be careful on the streets at night.’
[….]
Even on the streets at night, your names will be clearly visible, so be careful.
There was a formidable crowd around Sonya and Carl.
Now that Stra’s professor has visited the country himself, he will want to extract the benefits in some way.
And one of the biggest benefits….
(Aren’t you attending the banquet, dean?)
(Do you know what the dean likes?)
(Even if the professor wants it…)
It was a meeting with the dean.
At this moment, the nobles were no different from the merchants they had seen in the village.
Aristocrats from Stra school, and nobles who did not receive lessons from Stra. Everyone wanted to meet the dean.
However, as I thought, the dean did not appear at the banquet, and Sonya attended the banquet as the dean’s representative.
And Sonya dealt with those nobles simply and elegantly.
(The dean said he would like to take a break for a while.)
(Aha… That’s right.)
So while all my acquaintances were bothered by people around me, I was able to leisurely walk around the banquet and look around.
Numerous chandeliers, luxurious tables, music that calms the mind, and the cheerful voices of people.
I liked it more than I thought.
And seeing that no one was around me, I immediately nodded.
‘As expected, this is normal.’
[Karin Brandrup… I wonder where such excellent information came from.]
I collected my travels as if I expected my arrival here, not a place where information is transmitted digitally.
The information power of the other nobles would not be easy, but Karin was showing a figure that went beyond that category.
‘That’s the story of not being able to do it alone….’
It was the time when I was looking around, thinking about Karin.
The nobles who couldn’t fit in among the other nobles were talking to each other while watching Louis and Luna.
“After… I envy you. I also wanted to enter Stra.”
“You don’t know yet. I wonder if I suddenly have a talent for magic….”
“Has there ever been such a precedent? Whoa… I should give up early and find another way out.”
I nibble on the food on the table, not paying attention to them.
Only ears are pointing towards them….
‘All the guys here have no talent for magic.’
I didn’t feel any regret at all.
Rather, I enjoyed this situation.
‘As expected, eavesdropping is the best.’
As I hummed to myself, I continued to listen and concentrate.
Most of the stories that went back and forth were lamentations mixed with deprivation, comparing themselves to Luna and Louise.
In the meantime, the subject of the conversation began to change with a line from a man.
“Isn’t it like it’s confirmed now?”
In the middle of such an ordinary story, words that pricked my ears flowed in.
“As expected, the official successor of the Brandrup family will be Prince Louis, right?”
“….”
I focused all my nerves with my ears to listen to their conversation.
The aristocrats didn’t pay any attention to my existence, and started chatting as if they were flowing.
“Duke Brandrup said that he would decide on his successor in three years… It’s already over.”
“In fact, it’s over the moment you enter Stra.”
“Lady Karin… A woman who was so smart collapses in front of magic.”
Karin Brandrup….
I started looking around, listening to their stories.
However, even looking around the inside of the banquet hall carefully, I couldn’t find Karin’s figure or any window of her temperament.
That’s for sure.
‘What? Didn’t he attend?’
[The temperament window is not visible. It is certain that he did not attend the banquet.]
After shaking my heart earlier, I didn’t attend the banquet….
I’ve only seen her face to face with Karin for about a minute at most, and given her temperament, she’s definitely the kind of person who would enjoy being out in front of people.
Above all, the banquet hosted today must have been considered even more important because it was a place to celebrate the dean’s visit to Levin’s kingdom.
Even so, Karin, with her envoys, did not let a single strand of her hair shine through.
‘That’s awful… I don’t even know.’
[Looking at her temperament window, she is a woman who moves deliberately. There must be a reason today.]
‘I wanted to see your face once….’
Seeing that he hadn’t shown up even after the banquet had started, it seemed like giving up on meeting him.
It was the moment I gave up and picked up the food.
An aristocratic line pierced my eardrum and shot like a needle into his brain.
“Come to think of it, Lady Karin… The ducal family says that she is already preparing to marry.”
