"Oh~"

Prince Selan showed a keen interest.

"Are you accusing the current Duke of patricide?"

"I'm not accusing, it's a fact, just without evidence."

"Oh? How do you know then?"

"I have my ways, but they can't be considered evidence."

Indeed, what I saw from his title cannot be considered evidence. However, the data on his title, even though it sometimes hides, has never been wrong when it appeared.

In other words, the title "Patricide" appeared in his title before, so there is absolutely no mistake that Jans killed his father.

Unless his father is not just one...

Or... his father was NTR'd, then I have no way to prove it.

"Interesting. No problem, leave the investigation to me. But speaking of which, Fir, what do you plan on doing next? Will you stay here and continue as a mercenary, or will you go back to Marshal Duke's territory with him to teach his children?"

"Well... I don't know, but I think I might choose the latter. After all, I don't have much to do here anymore. As a foreigner, it's not good for me to conduct an investigation on Jans here, and it's also not easy for me to obtain and use evidence through normal channels."

If Jans hasn't lost his mind, then after this much time has passed, he definitely wouldn't have left any obvious evidence. I'm not Conan, solving cases and such is best left to professionals.

"That's understandable. In that case, I, as the chairman of Witte Royal Academy, will specially appoint you as a substitute teacher in our school, and then allow the two from Duke Marshal's family to enter the academy. That will make things easier for us."

"Huh? Easier?"

"Well... ever since Princess Annie came back from Gray Academy, she has been throwing tantrums, neither attending classes at the Royal Academy nor studying anything else, just spending her days researching airships..."

What the heck? The princess researching airships? Just thinking about it feels pretty cool.

"That sounds fine to me. At least she won't cause trouble."

"Is crashing into the Mage Tower with an airship considered causing trouble?"

"..."

I can almost see the indescribable expressions on the faces of the royal family members and the mages inside the Mage Tower when they saw the airship crashing into it.

Hehe, let me laugh first.

"Alright, I understand. In summary, it's to give Princess Annie something to do, right? Even if I enter your Royal Academy, it might not work out, right? As for me and Princess Annie, we're just ordinary friends."

"That's the point."

Prince Selan looked helpless.

"Annie hardly has any friends."

--------------------------Happy New Year--------------------------

"So you're saying there is a school that wants us to be teachers?"

Aliyah's face was almost touching mine, and seeing her expression, I shrugged my shoulders to indicate that there was nothing I could do about it.

"I don't mind~ I have no problem being a teacher~"

Fran, with a smile on her face, said as she ate her pudding. Her thighs in black stockings swayed back and forth, and I had no idea which clothing store helped her modify her mage robe into a short skirt version. All I can say is, well done.

But... is it really okay for her to be a teacher? That Miss Mary over there is practically her clone. I heard that these two teamed up early in the morning today and went out to drink. They're like a troublemaking duo.

"Well~ Being a teacher is actually quite simple, just repeat what's in the book and let them figure it out themselves."

Listen, Mary, the problematic teacher over there, made a half-hearted remark!

"So, what do I do? Big brother?" Oyado asked.

"Well... Oyado, you don't have to do anything. After all, we're just going to the Royal Academy of Witte to freeload meals."

"You guys are so casual. But it doesn't matter where I go, as long as they provide enough equipment," Dale replied casually.

"Don't you need to help out at Blue Moon?"

"No, after I gave Lanya the blueprint for the engine, she handed over the business to her partners and started researching on her own. I didn't find piloting an airship interesting, so I decided to wander around with you guys."

"Haha... is that so..."

That's right, Dale brought his airship... Legion, yes, this guy now has 12 combat airships parked on an unmanned island in Blue Lake City. Although I don't know their exact combat power, he claims that three airships can take on level 40 flying monsters without any damage, which is quite terrifying.

However, since no one was available to pilot the cargo airship he was operating, Pure White, who had just learned how to pilot an airship, volunteered to pilot it back to Blue Moon. That's why she's not here right now.

Looking at Bai Yueguang and Taishi Xi, they were now dressed in the Empire's standard warrior uniforms. Well, the situation in the East Continent is still quite tense, so seeing the three of them would surely cause some trouble, hence the change of clothes.

On the other hand, Hei Luoli really liked Western-style clothing. After putting on a pink mini skirt, I never saw Bai Yueguang look away.

But Taishi Xi is too tall, and this guy has no trace of a young girl's charm when wearing a skirt... To be honest, she gives off the feeling of a queen. So she conscientiously changed into the Empire's lady warrior uniform. The regular warrior uniform really doesn't suit her, so Duke Marshall even gave her a gift of an Empire's magic swordsman outfit, which could only be described as extraordinary when she wears it.

At that time, Duke Marshall asked Taishi Xi if she wanted to join the Empire's army, but she refused, saying it's boring.

"I don't have any objections. I'm actually quite interested in seeing the Empire's swordsmanship, which is said to be a combination of elegance and combat power," Bai Yueguang smiled.

"I'm just here for the good food," Hei Luoli nodded beside him.

"Oh," Taishi Xi's response was simple.

"It seems like everyone doesn't have any objections, right?"

"Hey, hey, hey! What about my opinion?" Aliyah called out.

"Aliyah, if you think about it, this is the Royal Academy, right?"

"Yeah, so what?"

"Royal, it indicates wealth, right?"

"..."

"Wealthy, so do I really need to tell you what to do?"

"Hmph! If I don't have money, I'll come after you!" Aliyah thought for a moment and then nodded.

As I looked at Aliyah, I sighed and suddenly remembered something.

"Oh, by the way, Aliyah, you should also tell your captain to bring his cousin along to the academy."

It is now dangerous to leave Desta in Blue Lake City. If Jans kills him, the mission cannot be completed.

"Hey? Why?"

"Because of the mission. We still have one unfinished mission, don't we?"

"That mission..."

Aliyah thought for a moment.

"Well, this way, the captain won't be too lonely either."

After saying that, Aliyah quickly ran out.

Really, this guy may be tough on the surface, but he does take care of people he has a good relationship with.

But why does he always hit me? Seriously.

"That's settled then."

I nodded and walked out of the room, heading towards Prince Selaan's room.

"Your Highness, when shall we depart?"

"It seems you and your companions have agreed. Very well, we'll depart this afternoon," the prince smiled.
