Luxurious airships descended from the sky, and the small airport, specially prepared for the Duke's family, was waiting for the Confederate personnel to wait for the hatch to open.

"All stand upright!"

As the hatch slowly opened, the leader yelled at the soldiers, and Lufas walked through it with a smile on his face as the neat queue watched. Even the most critical aristocrat could not find fault with his etiquette. A warm smile like a spring breeze, even if it is just a simple glance, can make people feel like a spring breeze.

"Master Lufas."

The butler hurriedly stepped down from the airship, walked quickly to Lufas's side, and whispered, "I just got in contact from the Military Academy, and that instructor named Ike is now waiting for you in the restaurant where Master Jusis often goes." Master Jussi's words are already in the underground waters. ”

"Anyway, I think I've already been in prison by now, right? The speed is not bad, since there are still so many confederate troops here, presumably my dear brother has not been discovered yet. You go and get the people who lead the Confederate army out of the way, and I'll ask the driver to take me to meet the new instructor first. When you're done, come back and join me. Lufas thought for a moment, then slipped into the guide car that had already been parked beside him and replied.

"It's not a young master!" The housekeeper hurriedly spoke: "You can't go alone to see someone you have never met. I'm worried that if that instructor has bad intentions—"

"If he has bad intentions, it won't help if you add him, right?" Lufas interrupted the butler's reply, "You've also seen his resume, and if such a person really wants to think about me, even a small group of Confederate troops will probably not be able to stop him." In that case, why do you have the idea of fighting him? "Besides, he should have known my position before he chose to contact me through the Military Academy, and now that he has asked for me, I can't think of any reason he has to attack me." The worst possible outcome is that he thinks I won't help him and holds me hostage. If so, it would be nice to be able to sell them a good favor. ”

“。。。 Yes, I see. The butler, who wanted to persuade again, finally nodded under the resolute gaze of Lufas. After gently closing the car door. Under the watchful eye of the butler, the guide car drove slowly.

"Finally... Lufas, who was in the car, breathed a sigh of relief, "Although there is loyalty, but the way of thinking is still too stubborn, and it is really a troublesome thing to lack some flexibility." ”

"My lord also said this for the sake of Master Lufas." The driver replied.

"Yes, people who don't listen to others for the sake of others are sometimes the most difficult to do." Lufas sneered, not like answering the driver, but more like talking to himself, lowered his head and picked up the guide communicator in his hand, and sighed softly.

"Next, is it the turn of the more stubborn father... THIS REALLY ... It's boring. ”

。。。。。。

The guide car slowly stopped near the open-air dining chairs, perhaps because this luxurious guide car is so famous, almost all the guests who ate on the open-air table of the restaurant stood up, whispered and looked respectfully waiting for the owner to get off... Except, perhaps, one person who is burying his head in the food.

"This must be the Ike instructor who was personally recommended to the Military Academy by Prince Olivet, right?" After the driver opened the door and got out of the car, and after quickly observing the restaurant, Lufas walked up to Ike unhurriedly, smiling.

"It's faster and more decisive than I thought." Ike stood up and warmly invited Lufas to sit down, and looked at the whispering crowd and the surroundings without a trace, "Should I say that it is really worthy of the Lufas, who is known as the first person of the young generation of nobles?" ”

"It's over, the first person or something, this is all something that some people want to stir up discussions, and scheming people can spread it, so Instructor Ike doesn't have to believe these rumors that are made out of nothing." Lufas smiled wryly, "There should be more important things than that, right?" ”

"It's also said that the affairs of your nobles, I, as a commoner, are not qualified to meddle." Ike replied, "As I said in my report, the person who ordered the arrest of Macchias is probably your father, Lord El Bardia." Considering your position and the relationship between father and son, I envisage that after rescuing Macchias, we will quietly flow out of Balyahat, find other means of transportation and return to the academy, according to the rules of operation of the Confederation army, once we leave, he will not be embarrassed again, right? And from the point of view of action, this order is not a harsh order, so I hope that you can act as a mediator so that we can take advantage of the opportunity to escape. ”

"Can I ask a few questions before that?" Lufas stuck out his finger and replied, "First, Instructor Ike, you seem confident that they will be able to break into the prison?" Although I have a map and my brother's guidance, it is not easy to invade, right? Why are you so confident? ”

"Although I have no intention of belittling the Confederate Army." Ike scratched his head embarrassedly, "But I've been in office for a few weeks, and I've had a shallow look at the level of the students. If it were an open area, a mere student would definitely not be a match for the army, but in a narrow and dark dungeon, it would be difficult to say. Unfortunately, some of my students are all too familiar with this style of fighting, and if she had been alone, I might have been out there ready for her to get back. ”

"I see, it seems that Instructor Ike is quite confident in the students of Class VII." Lufas nodded, and suddenly looked at Ike with a somewhat sharp expression, "Then the second question, why do you think I will help them escape?" Secretly helping is just fulfilling my duty as an elder brother, but if I put it in the open, not only will I be demoralized in the eyes of my father, but I will also be criticized by other nobles, so what good is that? ”

"Benefits or something... If you can come here and meet me alone, don't you already think about it? Ike calmly replied, "Or do you need me to give you an answer that satisfies you?" ”

“。。。。。。 I understand. Lufas stared at Ike for a long time, and finally sat back in his chair, "I understand the reason why Prince Olivet invited you here, Mr. Ike. Luvas smiled aristocratic again, "I see, then let's go now, the contact just came from the butler, it seems that the people of Class VII have been found and are now on the way to hunt down." ”

"Really." Ike sighed, "After all, that team is still full of problems. ”

"Isn't it great? If there is a problem, it means that you can get stronger again. As long as there is motivation. Lufas stood up and invited, "So, if you don't mind, let's go with us, shall we?" If it's not fast, my dear brother will probably be captured and imprisoned by the soldiers. ”

"Is that really good?" Ike wondered, if he was discovered, meddling now would really make it difficult for the Duke to step down. ”

"This is a wrong judgment made by my father who was deceived by some villains, and as a son, I have an obligation to correct this mistake." Lufas smiled and replied, "Moreover, I have some ability in debating and persuading, and if I hadn't persuaded my father, I wouldn't have sat here and talked to you." Right? ”
