The Academy Leader is too Strong - Chapter 76
Only Krnovel
Winter quietly packed her bag and left the chapel.
“Where?”
“The library and the cathedral. “I will definitely find a way.”
“… … Oh. Be careful on your way back.”
No one could stop her. That much determination was evident.
“It looks like our winter doesn’t want to go~”
“That’s right. That makes me feel more anxious.”
Canis commented blandly, feeling that it was new. I felt the same way.
If a child like Winter hates it so much, it must be a pretty nasty position, even if you don’t know it. Is it the right choice to go?
But I want to participate in the auction.
“Aren’t you going to the dormitory?”
“Huh? Of course. The place is so nice~”
I clicked my tongue at Canis’s sly words. I agreed with the idea that the chapel’s location was good, but I had no intention of sharing it.
“The wind is good~ The sun is good~ The air is good~ It’s a perfect space if only there were no Dabi~”
“I, I. That crazy guy.”
I approached him with my fist clenched, but the chestnut split the air every time. I fought like that for a long time.
I didn’t understand how to avoid attacks, but I tried my best to dodge the attack.
“I’m here.”
Suddenly I heard Winter’s voice. Roughly 30 minutes had passed since the fight with Canis and the chat after giving up.
When I turned my head, what I saw was Winter standing solemnly.
“… … Are you okay?”
He appeared in a very haggard state, as if he had been through something in the meantime.
“Yes, of course.”
When I asked him out of concern, he gave me a calm answer. The blood vessels in his eyes were burst because he had overworked them so much.
“I found a way.”
“Oh. Really? What is it?”
“We just have to put up the auction items.”
“?”
It’s a bit of a disappointing story for such a tragic statement. The idea is fine, but there’s a major problem.
“What are you going to sell? There’s nothing worth auctioning.”
“The bracelet that Canis received from a desert tribe.”
“… … You weren’t originally this kind of character.”
I didn’t think, ‘I deserved the courtesy.’ In the first place, it was a transaction in which they received goods that they believed were legitimate.
It’s up to us how we use the items we trade. But the problem is that we don’t know if they’re worth putting up for auction.
“Here you go.”
“?”
When he seemed to hesitate, Winter handed him a piece of paper. I suddenly received it and laughed at the picture drawn on the paper.
“That bracelet is an item passed down from generation to generation of a desert tribe. “It is said to be a bracelet honoring the god believed in by desert tribes and its ability is to find the way by receiving starlight.”
“I figured it out and put it together in just 40 minutes.”
What is that obsession? She stuck out her tongue at the absurd achievement. Now that persistence felt scary.
Based on the report and what Winter said, the bracelet was a good item. Plus, objects related to divinity.
“I don’t think it’s a necessary skill anyway, so should I just sell it?”
“Winter~ This is mine and my opinion~”
“You know a lot, so you can handle most situations. In addition, the person who submits the auction item receives a 5% discount on the commission for winning the auction item.”
Winter didn’t even pretend to listen to Canis’ words. We both gaped at the unusual display of coercion.
“Okay. Let’s sell it.”
“yap! ha. at las. at las!”
Winter jumped with joy at the words uttered as if she were asserting them. Canis, who actually had the auction items, was confused.
“Is this mine?”
“I’ll give you money, so give it to me.”
In terms of cost, it would be a good idea to just auction it off and make a killing. If that didn’t work, the compensation he received from Kargula was also substantial.
Canis rolled his eyes and handed over the bracelet.
“It says that participation through auction item submission is limited to one person.”
“It’s just the two of us anyway.”
“… … Yes.”
Then, shall we go and submit the bracelet?

“Is this really true?”
The princess couldn’t hide her surprise as she read the report Sheila brought. Even Sheila, who always smiled brightly, had a slightly serious expression on her face.
In response to the princess bowing her head deeply, she let out a deep sigh.
“Huh.”
The report was full of stories of the precariously held frontline being stabilized and further devastating blows being inflicted on the enemy.
“So that was the kind of ability you had? How strange.”
Davide said he had a general idea of the power of a glass bead bomb called a ‘candela’.
However, apart from power, practical application is a different matter. In this case, it can be said that the troops on the front line who received the supply used it well.
“It will be unfamiliar to both sides.”
“But isn’t there someone in our camp who uses something similar?”
Weapon with no information. Therefore, it was more effective because the enemy’s reaction was delayed. I was lucky.
It would be nice if the war ended like this, but it was not easy.
“Those three. No, two, excluding the princess. Did just two people cause this much damage?”
“I guess he must be that talented.”
Still, I was satisfied with the time I had gained to repair and maintain the front line that was being pushed back.
Suddenly, Davide sold me something I really needed, when I really needed it.
“You can put your worries aside.”
“That’s what it is. But it’s still not enough. I guess I’ll have to consider sending him away.”
Sheila smiled softly as she looked at the princess who was muttering softly.
The princess made a poopy face as she looked at Sheila, who suddenly exuded a gentle mood. It was a face with no problem.
“What are you imagining again? Please stop with that delusion. please.”
“Hehe. “Don’t you have more faith than you thought?”
“What? Are you talking about Davide, that guy?”
The princess let out a sigh of relief as she watched Sheila nod. Where in that guy could she trust him?
The sharp guy was dangerous to trust with my back. He was just helping me because it was in his own interest.
“You really like Davide.”
“It’s because Your Highness the Princess has not yet seen its true value. The lightning sword he uses is truly amazing, isn’t it?”
“… … “That’s kind of interesting.”
When you ask Sheila about Davide, most of it comes down to the thunderbolt spike. It always ended with a depiction of the sword of thunderbolt imbued with divinity.
As a result, even the princess was excited. A blade that is over 10 meters long. It barely has the shape of a sword, but what makes it is lightning that spits out brilliant divinity.
A finishing move that causes rapid destruction with a single swing. In addition, it also summons a massive lightning storm as a secondary effect.
Just hearing the story piques my interest. A sword of lightning. Isn’t it quite romantic?
“And he’s nicer than I thought.”
“… … Him? You’re already senile. “It’s because I treated you too harshly.”
“Hehe. Of course, in human years, it would be about that age. Isn’t this the peak of a fairy’s age? “It’s very popular ever since.”
“I’m so jealous. I’m jealous.”
Sheila smiled gently at the princess’s words. She looked at her niece’s tantrum as if it were cute.
“By the way, what are your plans for the wedding?”
“… … .”
The princess looked at Sheila with a puffy face. Playfulness on every face. It was evident that she had a wicked intention to properly tease the princess.
“I have no thoughts. “The cause comes first.”
Teasing the princess. What a nuisance. The princess sighed deeply and shook her head.
They were born and raised in my hands since birth. This is a reaction that comes out because we are special to each other.
“What if it helps the cause?”
“Then it’s worth thinking about. Of course, it has to be worth it.”
Immediately after those words, the princess felt that her aunt’s demeanor had changed significantly. And that was never a good sign.
The only person who is comfortable with the one with the ultimate power, the princess. Even her own father, the current emperor, does not treat the princess comfortably.
But the monster in front of me was different. She is a troublesome person who treats herself, the princess, like her ordinary niece. She asked something.
“How are you, student Davide?”
“You are going to make me into a ruthless person who swears even at my aunt.”
And that’s what it says. The reason I don’t get angry is because I know it’s a joke and the words themselves are funny.
“Isn’t it nice to look at too?”
Of course, Davide’s appearance was good-looking. Still, the face that resembles my father and is said to be of Duhane blood is quite a bit higher.
The problem is that I also inherited my father’s crazy personality.
“Now that I think about it, you were an alumnus of the Duhane family. “Seeing how much you care for Davide, I guess it reminds me of that time.”
I looked at Sheila’s face again. Her face has a smile created by the pleasant memories she remembers as she reminisces about her past.
“That’s right. I am an alumni of Nerva. “He was from the combat department, and I was from the magic department, but we interacted often at the time and were very close.”
Sheila brewed the tea quietly. The princess smiled mischievously as he received the strongly brewed black tea. She should give back what she received.
“It seems like you have fond memories of it, seeing how much you cherish it. So, you were romantically involved with the Duhane family?”
“what? “How did you know?”
“What!?”
It was meant to be a joke. However, the words he spoke with a sly smile turned into a powerful curveball that hit the princess in the head.
If we just and casually admit this, our situation will be embarrassing. And above all, they were dating each other? With that Duhane matriarch?
“uh… … How! that! So, you took care of David’s convenience! Hey! You must be able to distinguish between public and private things! Also, do you know how much of an age difference there is?! “Why do you covet his children just because they are not fulfilled?”
“It just brought back memories and caught my eye. There is a clear distinction between public and private life. There is also a sense of shame in knowing morality. “Hasn’t this been the result?”
Sheila awkwardly smiled at the princess, who was unexpectedly furious, and pointed to the report. The reaction was amazing. To the point where it felt a little burdensome.
“I don’t want dirt getting in my eyes! “I can’t give up my uncle’s place to a guy like that!”
“oh. Then, what kind of uncle would you like, Her Majesty the Princess?”
“He is similar to me, has the same calmness and magic skills as you, and is brave and powerful like Ethan. A man with unhesitating determination in encompassing the world and a grand ambition to conquer!”
“… … You’re planning to make me single forever. Such talent does not exist in this world. “The princess.”
“Then live with me forever!”
No matter how I look at it, that seems like my ideal type. Sheila chuckled and filled the princess’s glass, which had already become empty.
“More than that, this time I received a call from the Lofty Church.”
“iced coffee. You mean ‘Banquet of Charity’?”
“yes. “I heard there were some pretty interesting items at this auction?”
“Fun stuff?”
“It seems to be something related to the teacher.”
The bright and light atmosphere quickly cooled down at the mention of the word “teacher.” Sheila glanced at the princess.
“If you go that far, I can’t help but go. “I need to find something to put up for auction.”
“Haha. This time, the Anaye Church will also participate.”
“Stop it. How come every story leads to that guy? I always tell you, that guy is absolutely not allowed.”
The princess, who had misunderstood the situation, pretended to be threatening. Sheila just smiled softly and affectionately at the princess.
