… Roen, he once married a woman named Judia in a future unknown to others.
Did you marry because you loved each other?
I'm not sure about that.
What is clear is that at that time, he was mentally exhausted and there was something a bit strange about him.
Because I ended up marrying her as if I was possessed by something.
… and only later did I find out.
That she was not only a sacrificial victim, but that she was also an assassin who approached her companions in an attempt to destroy them!
It was something that could not help but make my teeth chatter and my blood boil.
It was enough to make him furious that she had even manipulated his own emotions, but she was also the woman who had destroyed his comrades.
…so he couldn’t forget that grudge.
Even though it hasn't happened yet, I can't just let it go since I know that woman is the seed of evil.
So, it is inevitable that you will be angry… .
“You sure have a lot of money, Blackie. I never would have guessed that this building was yours.”
“…….”
… I was just in a daze, at this moment I couldn’t say anything, and I even forgot my anger.
What is that?
“Well, don’t be too upset. Hmm, I, I don’t know why, but I know you have a crush on that thing, but for now, you’re working.”
“…….”
“Can you please give me some kind of reaction? I feel embarrassed because it sounds like I’m talking to myself….”
“…Instructor.”
“I’m finally getting a response.”
“…….”
“…You’re silent again, you punk.”
Judging by his grumbling tone, it was clear that he was the instructor I knew.
But… .
“Excuse me, are you really the instructor?”
… that ‘form’ was something that I could never have imagined as belonging to an instructor.
There, there was a 'handsome young man'.
Roen rarely tells others that they are handsome, but that young man is surprisingly handsome.
Not only that, but the atmosphere it exudes is cheerful and refreshing, and it even has the charm of giving a sense of comfort.
Roen was dumbfounded to find himself praising someone else's appearance so highly.
Since when did you start saying that you were interested in your appearance?
'I guess it's an appearance that even I admire.'
Even he, who wasn't particularly interested in appearances, couldn't help but feel admiration and curiosity, and Roen was simply dumbfounded.
“Oh, did you happen to use a transformation artifact?”
For a moment, Jack asked a question on his behalf while he was standing there blankly, and he asked back.
“There are artifacts like that too?”
“I, I’ve never heard of it either, but judging from how it looks now, I think it might exist….”
“I wish I had such a convenient artifact. But no. I didn’t use such an artifact. I just compressed the muscles and bones.”
“?”
“You saw it before, right? Like this….”
Wood crack!
“It’s about compressing your body. You too can do it if you try hard. You learned how to use your body from me, right? It’s the same thing.”
“…….”
“Answer me, you guys. It sounds like you’re talking to yourself.”
“…….”
… isn’t it more surprising that an answer comes out?
Their arms suddenly swell up and a 'part' of the instructor they know comes out, and they are left even more confused and dazed as they confirm this.
Should I say that my mind cannot keep up with the talent that is more amazing than any circus act?
No, not even the circus can compare.
“Well, by the way, Instructor.”
"huh?"
“Mom, if you just compressed your body, does that mean that’s how you originally looked?”
“Oh, this face? Well, it’s from when I was young. At least until 7 years ago, I looked like a savage. But since I started exercising properly, I’ve been able to shed that anchovy-like appearance.”
“…….”
“Why have you been reacting like that since earlier?”
“…It’s just, it’s so amazing in so many ways.”
“??”
"haha…."
It was Jack who spoke the words that seemed to represent his own feelings once again, and Roen found himself shaking his head, momentarily forgetting even his resentment towards Judia Pierre.
Anyway, this person-.
“…The ending is always different.”
Someone who always has a different genre.
Roen thought there was nothing more to be surprised about, but he couldn't help but laugh in vain as he watched his teacher continue to create surprising things.
… It was an absurdity that even extinguished the fiery resentment in an instant.

[-A new flower of the social world has appeared]
The news of the Wangdo Society, which opened for the first time in nearly five years, was like a buffet for newspapers.
Even if you just follow the various incidents and rumors that occur in social circles, there is no end to the news.
Of course, the aristocracy, but also those who admire the glamour of high society buy and read the newspaper, so it must be like a festival for the newspaper company.
And of all these stories, the one that sells the most is this.
“‘Who will be the flower of the royal society that opens after 6 years?’ Ha! Of course it will be Youngae Windler? They say her beauty is comparable to that of a fairy.”
“Oh, you. Isn’t it common sense that rumors are exaggerated? What about fairies…!”
“Is that so?”
“Levy Jeanne d’Arc, you were a very strong and elegant young lady when I saw you at the war game the other day. I think you will cause quite a stir in the social circle this time.”
“You know, Lady Guinevere? If you look at her wisdom, she’s no different from a young sage. Beauty is average when it reaches a certain level, so I think what’s really important to look at is her wisdom.”
“You’re sick and you’re lying down!”
-[The flower of the social world]
So who will be chosen as the most beautiful young lady in this debutante?
… This part is bound to be the best-selling news.
Although some people criticize it as being obscene, beauty is an element that inevitably stimulates human desire, and discussing it as if debating it is quite an interesting topic.
Especially since it was the first debutante to be held in the capital in six years, countless young ladies from all over the South were gathering, so the topic was garnering even more attention, and the ones who were most likely to receive the most attention were the ladies who had drawn much attention last year.
Irene Windler, a sorceress with fairy beauty.
Levi Jeanne d'Arc, a pitiful but knightly swordswoman.
Karin Alencia de Guinevere, a young scholar who is said to already have the wisdom of a wise man in her eyes.
Interestingly, they were all girls enrolled in the academy.
Of course, there were many other noble women who received attention, but it was clear that none of them had as much talent and performance as these women.
Even if you just look at the young ladies who were called the flowers of the high society in the past, they were all known to have not only beauty but also extraordinary talent, so it is only natural that attention is focused on the girls mentioned above.
… However, recently, there has been a flower that has been rapidly gaining attention and threatening the stronghold of these three.
The protagonist was a woman with an extraordinary charm who stole people's souls with just her activities during those ten days, showing her face at tea parties and banquets big and small for about ten days.
The name is.
“Is that woman Judia Pierre de Lohengrin?”
“Count Lohengrin had a daughter? This is the first time I’ve heard of this.”
“Beautiful, beautiful….”
“But isn’t there a bad rumor about Lohengrin recently?”
“Hmm, what are you thinking?”
The great noble Lohengrin, whose momentum has been faltering recently and who is now under surveillance.
When the hidden love of Lohengrin came out into the world, people's attention was focused and they did not hesitate to admire her charm.
…what.
'If this lie is discovered, then I might end up on the guillotine.'
But it was all a lie.
Gulp.
Judia Pierre, the fake young lady disguised as the young lady of Lohengrin, walked on stage, barely able to hide the cold sweat dripping down her back.
…I’m talking about a precarious stage where if you make even the slightest mistake, there’s only a dark cliff.
Meanwhile, they were talking on the terrace at the top of the party venue, regardless of whether she was shaking or not.
“I thought you knew already, but I heard those fake guys are starting to scurry around again.”
It was Lee Han's remark, and in response to these words,
“I know. The Brass Knights are one of the three main factions that make up the Blood Crusade.”
“I see.”
“There’s no one who doesn’t know that. Well, they do know it, but it seems like they’re hiding it in a strange way.”
Roen's indifferent answer.
Since it was information I already knew, I seemed to be losing interest.
Lee Han scratched his cheek with an embarrassed expression as if he had known this would happen.
“Did I say that for nothing?”
“No. Thanks to you, I learned a lot.”
"huh?"
“First of all, the instructor is also chasing the Brass Knights and has not found them yet. Also, the one who asked the instructor to find the Brass Knights is most likely the temple, that is, King Raphael.”
"wow."
“You don’t have to be surprised. You can tell just by looking at that abominable woman… no, Judith Pierre hanging out with her. You can almost expect it just by looking at that bat-like, no… horrible person acting like that.”
“…Isn’t that the most purified form of address possible?”
“Anyway, you must have had a hard time. It must be hard to walk around with that horrible thing, but what I don’t understand is why it uses the name [Lohengrin]. Did you have any dealings with Lohengrin?”
Lohengrin.
A noble family of Pendragon, famous for pledging loyalty to the temple rather than the kingdom for generations.
However, recently, not only have there been instances of knights defecting to the Vanguard, but the family has also been embroiled in controversy in many ways, as it has been revealed that the current leader of the knights, Erhin Lohengrin, attempted to terrorize the Academy.
If it had been the same as before, it wouldn't have been strange if they had been swept away, but seeing them survive the disaster the day before and hold on bravely, the aristocrats' strength was certainly scary.
But now, Judia Pierre, who is not even a member of Lohengrin, has appeared in society under the name of Lohengrin.
This raises the possibility that there may have been a pact with Lohengrin, and it cannot but be a sign of some kind of political deal being made… .
“No, there’s nothing like that.”
“?”
“I’m just writing it however I want. I just want to stimulate you a little.”
“…….”
"why?"
"…no."
For that reason, you are the only one who would mess with a nobleman.
Although he had such thoughts inside, Roen muttered the name Lohengrin without revealing it.
“…Are you by any chance suspicious of Lohengrin?”
Roen recited the answer that he had just come up with, and he said,
“It’s good because you can be more careful with your words when talking to someone smart.”
All I could do was smile, and that was enough of an answer.
And this is,
'Lohengrin… … . Hmm, I may be seeing the fall of a great noble family in my generation.'
It was also a sign that dark clouds were gathering over the already declining fortunes of the noble family.
… excitingly.
