The news of Ruid’s research spread quickly and reached the imperial court.
Lucius calmly listened to Michael’s report and then asked.
“It seems like the entire empire is shaking. “To the extent that the wizard in the Magic Tower stopped all research and even discussed it.”
“It’s a presentation on Ruid’s research. “It can’t help but be noisy.”
Lucius always raised his eyebrows strangely whenever he heard Ruid’s story.
However, this time I didn’t laugh at all. What I have to do from now on is my job as an ‘emperor’ that requires excluding all personal feelings.
“The time has finally come.”
“yes.”
Michael bowed his head.
“Tell Ruid that you will hold a celebration. However, please send the invitation to Amelia Windsor.”
Lucius was waiting for now. This is because I firmly believed that Ruid would achieve ‘great achievements’ in the near future.
And that was the cornerstone of the plan to ‘change the heir to the House of Windsor’ – and the only way.
“From now on, we must keep in mind that there cannot be a single mistake. “The fate of the empire is at stake here.”
Lucius was heartbroken. Michael couldn’t understand why the emperor was reacting so sensitively.
However, the emperor’s advisors do not need any personal opinions. Michael prostrated himself and spoke briefly.
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
**
“Celebration?”
“huh.”
“no.”
Ruid shook his head at Amelia, who was holding out a letter with a burdensome seal on it.
“I’ve been moving around too much these days, so I want to rest.”
“It’s a celebration held by His Majesty for Luid.”
“Sister, go alone.”
It is truly grateful that the emperor holds a congratulatory banquet for oneself. But I really couldn’t go.
“It’s annoying.”
Ruid rolled up on the fox cushion. Amelia said, looking down at her younger brother with a bewildered expression.
“It’s Ruid’s celebration, but what’s the point if Ruid doesn’t attend?”
Ruid buried his face in the pillow.
“My sister can attend instead of me.”
“no. What do you think of Your Majesty? “Windsor must respect the imperial family.”
“Irene would have told me that I didn’t have to go.”
“Mom, would you have asked me to attend?”
“I don’t like places with lots of people. I think your Majesty will understand. I know this well. And only my sister received the invitation.”
“still…! “Is there a celebration in the world where the main character doesn’t come?”
Amelia was extremely embarrassed. Basically, it was because Amelia believed that the emperor should be respected.
“I lifted the ban on pocket money, but do you still want to do that? “You decided to respect your sister.”
‘I’ll never go.’
I actually hate crowded places. But that coupled with my ‘lazy Ruid’ nature, I really didn’t want to go.
“Say it hurts.”
“It doesn’t hurt!”
“Did you say that your grandmother passed away?”
“My grandmother is alive! “You’re still correcting it.”
Ruid got annoyed and jumped up. I glared at Amelia.
“You can take care of that. “I’m 12 years old.”
“Wouldn’t it be a bit unscrupulous to say that with one’s own mouth?”
Amelia slumped her shoulders. Once Ruid is stubborn, he can never be broken.
‘I can’t help it.’
No matter how important the emperor’s words were, Ruid’s wishes could not be ignored.
“…I’ll take care of it then.”
Ruid waved his arms half-heartedly.
“go for it.”
Amelia’s eyes trembled.
“Louis. “When you talk to a person, look them in the face and talk to them.”
Ruid looked at Amelia with indifferent eyes.
‘This time. ‘It’s time to correct the broken hierarchy.’
Amelia was heartbroken. But-
“Sorry.”
Ruid simply apologized and hugged the pillow again.
‘I’m pissed…!’
Amelia looked at the sleeping Luid for a long time and trembled.
**
The first student council of the Imperial Academy was successfully established.
In the past, the main building, where Ruid once ate, became the seat of the student council.
It was a half-destroyed building, but thanks to the ‘restoration magic’ that Ruid had cast in the past, the basic structure was able to be maintained – and
the building was able to be rebuilt in good condition in less than a month.
There, the first student council led by Damon held its first meeting.
“I thought the student council would start moving in earnest starting next semester… But Prince Damon. “This is too far!”

Vice President Hersi stood up in bewilderment while opening the topic.
The desks in the conference hall were not of a type commonly used in the Empire.
In the Empire, round tables are usually used to eliminate distinctions in status and allow people to speak freely.
But where they were sitting now was a long, square table. Also, Damon was sitting in the middle seat in the distance, enjoying a glass of wine. It was so far away that the face looked as small as a dot.
“Please refrain from speaking, girl.”
Damon raised his wine glass and captured Hercy’s face.
“This is my official residence.”
“Is this the imperial palace? What! And you are not His Majesty the Emperor!”
Hersy, who was immune, at least tackled them, and the two commoners were trembling.
In particular, Asha, the secretary who suddenly became a member of the student council, was in dire straits.
‘Ah, in front is the daughter of the marquis. Next to me is the former prince. Moreover, that person is Professor Luid’s assistant…!’
I was already a timid person, but when I saw the heavenly nobles that I didn’t see often, I didn’t know what to do.
“But why am I here…?”
Ella blinked her eyes and spoke curiously. Ruid asked me to come, so I came, but I didn’t know why I was sitting here.
“Didn’t Ruid tell you?”
When Hersy asked, Ella shook her head.
“Yes… All I can say is to come here suddenly.”
“You are the head of the General Affairs Department. “I will be managing the student council’s various funds in the future.”
“Yes, yes?”
Ella was surprised.
“B-but I was expelled…?”
“under.”
Hercy sighed.
“Who do you think Ruid is?”
“yes?”
“That doesn’t matter one bit. “There is nothing the youngest member of the House of Windsor cannot do at the academy.”
“omg.”
Ella covered her mouth.
“Then, can I take classes too…?”
Hercy was absurd.
“Does that matter?”
Nod.
Ella nodded. Hersy was dumbfounded.
‘You’re going to write a thesis that will be recognized in academia, but you’re taking classes?’
What kind of deception is this? – It got me thinking.
“Of course. Since I’m Ruid’s assistant, I can take classes as many times as I want…”
“Hehe, thank you!”
Ella immediately hugged Hersi.
Hersi looked like she was being hugged by Ella, who was much bigger than her.
“W-what are you doing!”
“Ah, ah. sorry. “You’re so happy…”
Ella muttered timidly after making such a bold move.
“Um… Is it rude to behave like this to a nobleman…?”
Hersi was not an easy personality. A personality that never forgives disrespect towards oneself.
But I knew something about Ella. A state of feeling a bit of responsibility. So Hersi did not get angry and spoke calmly.
“…Please be careful next time. And, thank you to Ruid, not me.”
“Just leave it at that and report, Hersi.”
Damon said in a grave voice.
But it was so far away that the voice was like a mosquito.
Hercy looked at Damon with cold, salty eyes.
“Stop it and come this way. “I can’t even hear my voice.”
“joy. “You’re a bold girl.”
Just—!
Damon snapped his fingers.
“Uh, wow!” Asha was startled and made a strange noise.
This is because the table quickly shrunk and it was already in front of Damon.
Hercy was also quite embarrassed.
“Was it a table with a shrinking function?”
“Do not underestimate the treasures of this body.”
Damon chuckled. He said, clenching his chin.
“Speak up. “Isn’t there a story I didn’t tell you earlier?”
“ah.”
Hersy opened his mouth with an expression that he had forgotten.
“…This is the first task that the Imperial Academy’s student council will undertake. A grand celebration banquet is scheduled to be held for Professor Luid’s historic discovery. “Because it is an achievement of a professor from the academy, students are also eligible to participate there.”
“Oh, then it’s our job to select those students.”
“yes. “Heirs of influential noble families will be invited to the banquet in the first place, so we need to select peripheral nobles and commoners.”
“It’s a simple problem.”
For Damon, deciding something was a simple matter.
This is because I have lived a life of decisions for the rest of my life.
“Nobles are excluded from banquet attendees. Because they have already been given one chance. Not twice. The five attendees at the banquet will be commoners. Also-”
Damon continued.
“It is impossible for this noble body to select the lowly. How can you judge something if your eye level is not right? “It is right for fellow commoners to take charge of this task.”
“Do you mean to leave it to Ella and Asha?”
“You are a girl who understands quickly.”
Hercy nodded.
“I think it’s a good decision. Ella, Asha.”
“yes yes!”
“yes.”
Asha was startled and answered, and Ella answered slowly.
“You two please coordinate and select the commoners who will attend the banquet. If you have any difficulties during the process, please come to me right away. “I will resolve this amicably.”
Hersi also provided several other criteria.
Damon listened to the story with one ear and was lost in other thoughts.
‘Do you want to start in earnest?’
Ruid’s research hasn’t even been published yet. A celebration at this timing. I couldn’t shake the feeling that it was urgent. Damon was strongly convinced that the Emperor had drawn his sword.
‘It is very difficult to achieve merit in an era of peace.’
There is only one way for Amelia Windsor to become the successor. Achieve greater credit than Irene Windsor. However, Irene Windsor’s achievements were the subjugation of warlocks and the extermination of corrupt nobles.
‘Are you afraid of unreasonable numbers, brother? Well, if I hadn’t known, your plan would have been perfect.’
In response to Amelia’s lack of skills, the emperor entrusted her with creating the strongest knighthood in the empire.
The original Teutonic personnel were retained to conserve power.
A celebration is a great place to use the paving stones. Perhaps the emperor was just waiting for this moment.
A place where many influential nobles participate. A place where commoners exist to exaggerate events and spread rumors to the people.
The banquet satisfies all of those requirements. In a place like that, what if you set a plate for Amelia Windsor? For example, an ‘uninvited guest’ breaking into the banquet hall.
Unless you are a fool, you will have no choice but to eat it. If successful, it could have a major impact on the succession structure of the Duke of Windsor.
After Damon figured everything out, he laughed as if it was funny.
“It’s a boring play.”
“yes?”
“This is not a banquet, but a third-rate skit. But even a skit like that can be top-notch depending on who the characters are.”
Damon stood up, put his hands in his pockets, and spoke arrogantly.
“Shine on me, lowlifes. I am the only one who owns this play.”
Hercy opened his eyes wide.
‘What on earth is this nonsense?’
…With Hersy’s common sense, Damon was completely incomprehensible.
