Became a Lazy Confucius at the Academy

119 – North Road (4)

The description of the Duchy of Windsor did not last long. I’ll explain. It was more than the snow in the great northern forest, but Ruid wasn’t that active in the first place.

Ruid was sitting on rice straw. Damon inspected his hand warmer with a chorus of ‘wonderful’ and ‘huh’. The people of the North squeezed many wisdom to overcome the cold, and the hand warmer was one of them.

As I was passing the time, I heard a commotion nearby.

“Well, no.”

“Hey, how old are you?”

“What nonsense are you talking about!”

“Please, please… ! If you don’t handle all of this today, you will be punished!”

“That’s none of my business. I can’t put it back in!”

This was a food warehouse located in the plaza.

The knights had been carrying the corrosion outside since earlier, and it seemed that they were trying to share it.

The problem is that people receiving food rations are actually refusing food.

“That one?”

“It’s like a regular event. We distribute food, but everyone hates to receive it.”

“…… Didn’t I say that the North is pretty poor?”

“It’s because everyone is nice.”

Ruid watched the people protesting with a smile.

The windsor knight was sweating profusely even in this cold weather.

“I’m asking you, please take them all!”

“You bastard! If you sprinkle it already, won’t you not be able to eat it later when you’re really in a hurry?”

“Yeah, I can still live. I can eat one whole meal a day.”

“Again, isn’t His Excellency the Duke giving his food!”

There are two reasons why the villagers refuse to eat.

The first was that it was still worth living.

The weather in the North is divided into two types.

It’s cold, or it’s cold.

In the latter, not even a drop of food is produced.

Even monsters are so cold that they don’t invade.

In other words, it was still less cold, but the logic was that if the warehouse is open like this, it can’t be used when it’s really urgent.

Second, I am concerned about the Duke of Windsor.

It is common knowledge that the Duke of Windsor lives a very frugal life.

…… This was a perception he had created himself. Originally, he had that perception, but he was too lazy to eat, so he slept and ate at a certain Young Ji-min’s house.

Of course, since he starved for a week with his young body, Young master forgot his face and ate the food very deliciously.

Since then, rumors have spread that “The Duke even provides food for his only son to the people.”

‘Large.’

… I still feel sorry for what happened then.

When I see you later, I should be as filial as I was sorry.

‘Anyway, I’ll have to deal with it. Still, he’s a Young master.’

A fierce battle was still taking place between the knights who wanted to distribute food and the people who refused to receive it.

Ruid took off his robe and entered the center of them.

People recognized Louis at just one glance.

“Oh no?! Aren’t you Young master!”

“I heard that you went to Jedo, but when… “

The Knight of Windsor hurriedly bowed. Louis took her arm and lifted her up.

“It’s vacation.”

“Heh heh, time flies. It seems like half a year ago we had a farewell ceremony.”

… That’s right, half a year ago.

Louise turned her body towards the young people.

“Oh, look at how skinny our Young master is.”

“If you go to Jedo, come back after gaining some weight.”

“… ….”

I heard voices mixed with concern from the local residents.

‘… Is it structurally right for Yeong Ji-min to worry about the son of the lord?’

Ruid was a bit suspicious.

“I heard Young master came?”

“Hey, look out of the way.”

“Be cute.”

“How did you grow up so well?”

In front of the food warehouse, which was originally about three or four, a large crowd gathered in an instant.

Thinking that a lot of people had gathered, Ruid put his hand on his waist and said.

“Everybody take this food.”

“Ayu, it’s okay for us, so Gongja-nim eats a lot.”

“Are you eating well these days?”

I never thought it would be like this even if I said it myself.

No, rather, when Ruid said it, it felt like the resistance from the local people grew bigger.

Where has the authority of the Duke of Windsor gone… !

It looked like it needed to be corrected.

“Listen to me, everyone.”

Ruid said very seriously.

“My family is not that poor.”

“We deserve to live too.”

“If you spread like this, what will be left… “

‘Why are you worried about that… !’

Ruid was dumbfounded.

He said with a long sigh.

“Larden Manor has been added to the Duchy of Windsor.”

“If it’s the Larden Territory, where do you import it every time?”

Ruid said she coyly proudly.

“Yes. It’s a reward from His Majesty. Note that… My personal possession.”

“Ohh!”

“From now on, I will bring food directly from the Larden estate. That is, it costs less money. This food was also brought from the Larden Territory, so hurry up and take it.”

“But.”

Even after I said this, people were reluctant to bring food.

“It’s an order. Take every one of them.”

The knight of Windsor shouted loudly because he thought it was time.

“It’s an order, Young master! If you don’t take this, you will be punished!”

Only then did the villagers start bringing food.

“Thank you, Young master.”

“At this amount, I should be able to eat enough for a month.”

I did not forget to say thanks one by one.

After all, people in the north are kind.

Ruid was proud. Nowhere in the world can you find a place with such a high sense of citizenship.

‘Anyway, I totally forgot. Didn’t I think I should have stopped by when I came?’

In the past, Gongji was given as a condition of becoming an academy professor.

I forgot about it for a while, but I remembered it this time.

That’s right, scattering enough food at this timing is something that can’t be done in the circumstances of the duchy.

“Huh?”

Ruid looked somewhere at the familiar presence she felt.

Whiik-!

The silver eagle descended and stopped in front of Ruid.

“Hi Jeffard.”

The eagle fluttered and fell in love with Ruid.

Damon asked with a puzzled look.

“Jeffard?”

“Irene noona’s familiar.”

I took out the letter that was bitten in the eagle’s beak.

After reading the letter, Louis nodded her head.

“They say everyone is scolded now. Let’s go, to Windsor Castle.”

**

Sometimes I think about this.

‘Is it okay for me to enjoy all this?’

A spacious house, a lot of money, good looks, and even strong power.

I was possessed by the ‘lazy Ruid’ who had all the things that others couldn’t even have.

Unlike his previous life, he had a harmonious family.

They are even very loved.

‘I had a family in my previous life. It was pretty harmonious until it happened. However… ‘

To explain the sense of possession is bizarre.

Obviously, he is a different being, but from the moment he became possessed by ‘lazy Ruid’, it seemed so natural.

It feels like waking up from a long dream.

Sometimes, the previous life itself is a creative dream that I had for a while, and I think that ‘lazy Ruid’ is actually my real self.

It’s nonsense, though.

“Son!”

Even at the thrilling moment of the mother-and-son reunion, that feeble thought did not leave.

But one thing is clear, the thought I had right now as I was hugged by Victoria was that it was ‘precious’.

Whether or not the feelings inherent in ‘lazy Ruid’, Ruid decided to be honest about his feelings.

He said with the most adorable smile he could.

“I missed you, Mom.”

“…… !”

Victoria’s eyes shook.

“Now… You don’t even call me Mama.”

“… I am 12 years old.”

She hurriedly waved her hand at the look on her face of regret.

“Oh, okay. I’ll call her Mama.”

Victoria’s expression brightened again. She hugged Louis tightly again.

A familiar landscape could be seen through the window over Victoria’s shoulder.

‘You’re back.’

It’s only now that I can feel it.

Perhaps, even at the academy, his own life is far longer than the end of this original story.

She’s back at Windsor Castle, where she’ll be spending most of her time.

“Aren’t you hurt anywhere?”

Victoria put her hand in her Louise’s armpit and held it high in her sky.

Louise nodded her head. Victoria felt uneasy about her, so she laid down on the ground and examined the body of her youngest son, her son.

She said, “I hear she’s been through some rough times. She thought what would happen if she got hurt somewhere… I’m glad you look unharmed. Did she eat well? You look a little skinny.”

“It didn’t increase or decrease even by 1 gram.”

Victoria stroked Louis with a warm smile.

Her own hair was stroked quite often, but Victoria’s touch felt oddly better.

Much more cautious and gentle.

‘This is where I will live. I think I forgot something important.’

If you think about it, wouldn’t the things that happen in her original story have nothing to do with her?

Even if the original story flows in the worst situation-

With the power of the Duke of Windsor, she should be able to cope with it.

‘Shall we stay here now? There’s no merit to being at the academy.’

The only thing that bothers me is Amelia and the various relationships.

I don’t think I’ll feel good if they get hurt.

But fortunately they are now in the North.

If I teach her well, improve her abilities and send her back, wouldn’t it be enough to protect herself?

‘I should consider it. Right now, I want to get stuck here.’

Then, Victoria spread her arms.

Louise was embraced by Victoria without hesitation.

Victoria hugged little Louis and whispered in his ear.

“Welcome.”

After Louise stopped her various thoughts, she replied with a quiet smile.

“I’m back.”

“They say the monster looks suspicious, but it’s not just that.”

Irene muttered on top of the fourth line of defense.

Irene was able to see far away places that cannot be seen with normal human eyes.

The monsters were gathering.

Just like the military, lined up.

The number was too high to be considered an ordinary wave.

Rosalie, one of the twin maids, bowed her head in reply.

“It wasn’t like this when I reported it to the head of the household.”

“I know that. Because it seems that the monsters are just gathering.”

Irene touched her chin.

“Catastrophe, is it… If possible, I would like Louis to come after he goes to the academy.”

Irene saw a demon in her field of vision.

It was a demon with dark skin color and black eyes.

She looked in this direction, as if she knew she was being watched.

It’s probably a pretty strong demon with a name.

“It won’t work that way.”

“I will report and come back.”

Irene grabbed Rosalie’s arm as she tried to disappear. Her gaze was still on Mine.

She smiled and said softly.

“You and I should be having a good time by now, just don’t bother me.”

“… ….”

Rosalie stared at her Irene, then lowered her head in response.

“Yes.”

“Rather than that, when do you say Ruby is coming?”

“I have just arrived.”

As soon as Rosalie spoke, a gate appeared next to her.

It was Ruby that came out of the purple space. But next to Ruby was Damon.

Damon approached Irene with a calm face.

“Why did you call me?”

“Nothing special. I didn’t want it to interfere with the mother-to-child relationship we hadn’t seen in a long time.”

“Hmph, I have no intention of interfering. Because I was curious about Yeongji. That purpose has been accomplished.”

“Then I’m glad.”

Irene didn’t particularly hate Damon.

If she were to be compared with Emperor Lang, she was more like Damon to the extent that she couldn’t be compared.

The reason was simple. Because, she said, Louise had been helped by Damon quite often.

So what she’s trying to do, from now on, is a trivial return.

How to use it is up to Damon himself.

Irene asked while facing Damon.

“Does our prince like hunting?”

Damon naturally raised the corners of his mouth.

“Of course. Hunting is the right quality a ruler should have.”

Irene laughed heartily.

“That’s good. I’m trying to tell you a little bit about Windsor’s hunting methods.”
