Chapter 9: Catching Up

Sophia Library

The royal capital, which is probably the largest library in the country, is as old as the country and allows visitors to find rare books collected by the royal family from all over the world. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

On the first floor, there is a public area open to the public, where tens of thousands of books are stored on shelves for people to browse, and most of the seekers who come here to find answers to their questions are here.

From the second floor, there is a forbidden book area that is not open to ordinary people, where most of the precious materials about the kingdom are placed. As one of the possible rulers of the kingdom in the future, Emilia was recognized by the Guardian Knight by simply showing the dragon badge in her hand.

Walking through the dazzling bookshelves, Emilia began to look for the information she wanted, because Arashi was going to hone Ronnie's martial arts at home, and Parker and Red Lotus, the two oil bottles, had to follow her to the library, but fortunately, the two of them did not continue to quarrel all the way, but just quietly wandered between the bookshelves, helping Emilia.

After all, Parker, who was floating in the air, was one step ahead, and he floated in front of the innermost bookshelf and beckoned to Emilia in the aisle, and whispered, "Leah, here." ”

"Cut. Honglian, who was the first to get there, rolled her eyes, muttered in a low voice, and turned around and ran out.

By the time Emilia came out again with the information, Red Lotus was already smirking at her in the position she had found, with an expression of quick praise on me.

"It's hard work Red Lotus. Emilia smiled and held out her hand, soothing the top of Red Lotus's head.

"Hey, hey. Red Lotus jumped onto the table, shook her tail twice, looked at the books Emilia had placed on the desk, and whispered, "An Overview of the Thirty Years of Economy in the Kingdom of Lugnica by Sankes Vorell." ”

"Eldest sister, is this what you are looking for?"

"Yes. Emilia nodded, took her seat, and tied her long silver-white hair into a crisp ponytail with a purple lace headring.

At this morning's meeting, the wise men asked them a question about the Chosen Ones if there was a solution to the country's declining economic condition.

Kursius was certainly one of the best in the morning, and her proposal to cut the annual expenses paid to the large circle of nobles, as well as to cut some unnecessary armies and focus on the deployment of defenses in key areas, both to ensure the security of the kingdom and to alleviate the current dire situation, was undoubtedly a good remedy.

Although Emilia remembered Kursius's confident back, it was not her who stood out the most today, but another candidate named Anastasia Hesin, who was born in the trading city of Kararaki, and taught everyone present an economics lesson with her unparalleled business talent.

From how to expand domestic demand, to taking advantage of the geographical disadvantages of neighboring countries to enter the market to make fortune, and finally controlling neighboring countries through the economy, the imagination of the imagination is little by little in her petite body.

"The pet doesn't bite the owner in turn because the owner has the food it needs. For a country, the same can be understood in the case of a money bag. Ah, what a sinful woman I am. ”

In the midst of everyone's amazed gaze, Anastasia made the final end to her story.

Compared to the two of them, he is too far behind. With an unwilling expression, Emilia bit her lower lip slightly.

"Didn't the eldest sister say that a solution had been found in this morning's meeting?" Honglian licked her forelimbs with her tongue.

"That's their way. Emilia, who was pulled out of her memories by the Red Lotus, smiled at it, "For me, Amilia, I haven't found the answer yet, so it's not going to work." ”

Parker, who was listening, suddenly showed a proud expression, this is my daughter, even if it is only a little, I will guard you little by little towards your goal.

"Alright, I'm going to read, you two keep quiet, don't quarrel. Putting her index finger to her mouth, Emilia looked at Red Lotus and Parker solemnly.

After the two little ones had made assurances, Emilia took a deep breath and opened the book in front of her.

Even if it's in vain, you can't give up your efforts, this is my sense of victory. The girl threw herself into the ocean of knowledge in the slowly moving sunlight.

Coincidentally, the Lan family, which is far away on the other side of the royal capital, also has a teenager who is suffering at this moment.

"It's too slow, it's too slow. ”

After saying this again, Arashi looked at Ronnie, who was gasping for breath after being hit on the ground by herself.

Tired and tired of propping up, Ronnie begged Arashi for mercy, "Old ...... Division...... Stop...... Cease...... Come on, really...... It's so tiring. ”

"Can't stand it?" Lan smiled particularly evilly, "If you want to rest, you can." Do two hundred push-ups, and when you're done, you're ready to rest. ”

"Hey!! I just ran around the royal capital. ”

"If you can't do it, you can go back. Arashi, who restrained her smile, looked very serious, and she didn't mean to joke at all.

"No, I'm totally fine, and I'm doing four hundred. Ronnie stood up from the ground with a 'poof', even though his legs were still shaking, still showing a stubborn expression.

Lan smiled and nodded, and said with satisfaction: "In this way, then make four hundred." ”

, I want to smack myself in the mouth. Although he thought so in his heart, Ronnie still leaned down honestly and did not refute.

Together, Ronnie looked at the ground and saw the teacher's feet standing in front of him, and the voice from above sounded a little empty.

"It's okay if you can't figure out some things all at once, but if you can't do anything for the sake of your goal, I think you're ......."

"No kidding. The roaring boy still maintained his posture, "I ...... It will definitely ...... Let the teacher and ...... Sister...... See my realization. ”

In Ronnie's sight, Lan raised her head slightly, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "Count it yourself, I'll go have a drink." ”

"Yes!"

On a bright summer day, cicadas chirp, and a beetle that has just broken out of its shell spreads its wings and leaps into the distance, leaving only the swaying branches and leaves.

Towards dinner, Emilia returned from the library with two bags of things in her hand, and as soon as she entered the courtyard, she saw Ronnie sleeping on the floor on her left, and Arashi sipping wine next to him.

"Why did Ronnie fall asleep? Did you eat dinner?" Emilia couldn't help but look distressed, she had come back with a bag of ingredients.

"Haven't eaten yet. Lan shook her head and said proudly, "Hahaha, this kid is too tired." ”

"You've trained too much. "Red Lotus told the truth.

Putting the things in her hand beside Arashi, Emilia frowned, "Arashi, you really are, Ronnie is still a child." ”

"No, no, no. Lan shook his index finger and said seriously, "Don't underestimate a man's determination." ”

Getting up and stabbing the sleeping Ronnie with the hilt of his sword, Arashi leaned into his ear and shouted, "Get up, start practicing." ”

"Yes, teacher. Like a reindeer awakened, Ronnie jerked himself up and opened his sleepy eyes. "Hey, Mistress Emilia is back!"

Emilia, who was deeply troubled by Lan's prank, said to Ronnie, who was preparing to salute, "Don't think about getting up and saluting me at this time, you stupid men know how to be strong." ”

"I'm sorry to let Mistress Emilia see the gaffe below. Ronnie said with a slight apology.

Lan, who got up and was about to walk into the living room, casually patted Ronnie's shoulder and said, "Okay, okay, since you've woken up, let's go cook." ”

Emilia suggested, "Why don't you let me do it." ”

"Rest assured, Mistress Amilia, you and the teacher can sit in the living room. The Knight was originally there to take care of the knight's diet and daily life, and Ronnie immediately shook his head and rejected Amilia's proposal.

When he got up again, a white trench coat slid down the floor. Ronnie picked up the clothes, wasn't this the teacher's clothes, did it just cover himself?

Surrounded by inexplicable emotion, Ronnie looked at Lan who was carrying a bag in front of him, and thought to himself: Teacher, you really care about me.
