Chapter 9
TN: Sorry it’s late. The next one should be in about 12 hours if I don’t procrastinate too hard.
Information is extremely important.
Obtaining information first can determine the future, so it’s not an exaggeration. But I already know the information from the original novel.
The problem is, that’s not so important anymore.
Since I’m already someone who doesn’t appear in the original work, it can be considered that the original has already been distorted.
Anyway, I want to say that there’s no need to be too concerned with the original. I should just refer to it and not add any additional meaning.
Well... some things don’t change.
“Mmm...”
While rubbing my sleepy eyes, I let out a long yawn.
“Didn’t sleep?”
“Huh? I did.”
Helena, who naturally sat down next to me today, asked as she looked at me.
Looking at her refreshing light blue eyes gently curved, I shook my head slightly.
“Then why are you so tired?”
“...No matter how much I sleep, I’m still tired.”
The truth was that I practiced late and studied at night, but I couldn’t tell her that.
At the academy, there were practical and written exams, so I had to make up for my lack of knowledge.
If only I could recall Felix’s memories...
I rested my chin and looked ahead blankly.
“What do you do at night...?”
“Nothing much.”
“Hmm...”
Seeing me blatantly avoid answering, Helena let out a low grunt and stared piercingly at me.
But I just pretended not to notice.
“Well, Felix wasn’t the type to study. And there’s no way he would have practiced swordsmanship at night.”
“That’s right.”
I let out an awkward laugh.
It’s not just that I can’t recall the memories. Maybe Felix originally didn’t study at all, so there’s nothing to remember.
That thought isn’t just a delusion.
Felix seems not to have been the type to study diligently, so that could be the case. The fortunate thing is that in my previous life, I did.
I didn’t need to get perfect scores on the written exams, and no one was forcing me to, but I didn’t need to fail the exams either.
I’m 17 years old again.
Since I was reincarnated at the age of a high school student, I needed to properly experience my school days accordingly.
As part of that process, studying wasn’t just difficult for me because of my age. It was probably because I had learned the hard way that it will become more difficult later if you don’t do what you can.
‘By the way.’
How dare you ignore me, Helena. Brace yourself.
I’ll overwhelm you in both the written and practical portions of this exam.
Zellos and Cain didn’t have a particularly good relationship, but it wasn’t terrible either.
To be precise, after Cain met Sylvia, their previously poor relationship as brothers improved.
“...Is there something on your mind?”
“Me?”
Because he had always wanted to have a good relationship with his brother, Zellos noticed the change in Cain’s unusually gloomy expression today and asked about it. Cain looked puzzled, as if he wasn’t even aware that his expression was sullen.
“Yes, expression seems sour today.”
“It’s nothing.”
“Is it because of that girl?”
“..........”
Cain answered Zellos’ question with silence.
Cain’s concern was indeed because of Sylvia. To be more precise, it was because Leonhardt was by Sylvia’s side, not Sylvia herself.
He couldn’t foresee how Leonhardt would act in a situation without Cain as a restraint. At the same time, Leonhardt’s recent unsettling behavior also contributed to Cain’s worries.
“Brother, there’s something I want to ask.”
Since news about the imperial family was more in Zellos’ domain of politics rather than Cain’s knowledge of business, Cain rarely knew the current news in that respect.
In other words, Zellos was the best person he could ask.
“What is it?”
Since it was rare for Cain to initiate the conversation first, Zellos asked with a look of surprise.
For a brief moment, Cain carefully chose the words in his mind.
Even though Zellos was his brother, he needed time to consider whether he should ask this question.
“What kind of question makes you hesitate so much?”
Seeing Cain hesitate momentarily, Zellos smiled slightly as if telling him to speak comfortably.
Nevertheless, Cain could only open his mouth very carefully, unusually carefully for his character.
“...What is the current situation in the imperial family?”
“The imperial family?”
After taking so long to ask, was it just about the imperial family?
Zellos could only tilt his head in puzzlement at Cain’s question.
“I thought you had completely distanced yourself from politics?”
“I’m not saying I’ll go back into politics. I’m just...”
“Well, it would be good for me if you care about politics too.”
Letting out a chuckle, Zellos raised his hand and stroked his chin, seeming to recall what had happened in the imperial family recently that would pique Cain’s interest.
Cain just silently waited for his words.
“If I had to name the biggest news......”
When Zellos finally spoke the information Cain wanted to hear, Cain couldn’t help but let out a deep breath and cradle his head, unaware.
“Why are you reacting like that?”
“...It’s nothing.”
It wasn’t important news.
But it concerned him.
He just hoped that ‘he’ wouldn’t cause any more trouble until Cain returned to the academy.
