Should I say that my adoptive father is clever, or should I say that as a politician, my black-hearted thinking is completely common?

Roland saw Gloria excitedly tell him that when she was chosen to be one of the representatives of the Academy, her mind was full of problems.

Although he was foretold by his adoptive father, the actual experience of being calculated by someone other than Li Lin still made Roland feel very frustrated, especially when he entered the principal's office and saw Minerva sitting on the sofa and welcoming him with the victorious gaze of "I know", Roland wanted to lament like an old grandfather even more.

"Welcome to your part, Roland. ”

Through the heavy, simple and elegant thick desk, the highest authority of the college, the Count Viognier, sent a polite and sincere welcome speech.

The old man who showed his old age and kindness, and the young man who nodded in greeting, seemed to have a warm atmosphere between grandparents and grandchildren, but they both knew that the relationship between "giving and taking" was the atmosphere of the main song in the room.

"It is the duty of students to defend the Motherland and the honor of the Academy. ”

"I am proud of you, my child. ”

After the ritual had exchanged lines, Roland sat down on the couch opposite Minerva at the headmaster's gesture, half of his butt glued to the couch, his back away from the backrest - just like in the past in the military academy.

"It seems that Ling Zun has given you some guidance. ”

The girl smiled lightly, and in Roland's opinion, that smile was quite similar to that of a fox.

"Ah...... As His Highness said. ”

The deep emerald eyes were staring at themselves, and the smugness had been hidden under their skin. Bear the ...... of innocence and eagerness Roland couldn't help but sigh.

As the guest hour ended, the principal quickly moved into practice.

"The rest of the Albion side will arrive the day after tomorrow, and there are 4 Knights of the Round Table on the other side: Lance Lotter, Gao Wen, Bedwell, and Geraint, plus the quasi-Octagon level magician, the 'Witch of the Tower' Morgan, which can be described as unprecedented combat power. To be honest, the situation can be described as hopeless. ”

Neither Minerva nor Roland responded to this discouragement, and they were well aware of this fact.

Knights of the Round Table.

This title has gone beyond the realm of honor and is close to a belief in great power.

Relying only on the combat power of a single individual can turn the tide of local battles. and even dominate the final direction of the battle.

It is like a real myth of zài and the world. The god of war who wields power in the world.

Exaggerated words are not exaggerated when used to describe the Knights of the Round Table, they are just as exaggerated.

"Lance Rodie, in particular, already has the strength to rival Chief Knight of the Round Table, Galahad, at a young age. In Britannia, Lance Rode is rumored to be the new savior. He is a demigod and half-human knight. Albion and Charlemagne will be given the throne, unifying the two countries. ”

Count Viognier's emotion made Minerva frown slightly, but the thought that it was just folklore after all. She was a little relieved.

The Britannia region used to be an independent principality, that is, it did not submit to Charlemagne and did not bow to Albion. Later, because of the heir of the prince, it was once merged with Charlemagne, and became a province of Albion in the Hundred Years' War. Today, even if the local people's desire for independence is high, the era of "Charles the Darder" chanting "All.hail.Britannia!" with the "Charlie the Darder" wearing an egg roll wig will never return, and the so-called Lance Rodette can inherit the throne of Albion and Charlemagne and the like is just a dream derived from the legend.

The immediate crisis is clearly much more urgent than an unattainable dream.

"What does Ling Zun think about this competition?"

The girl smiled to hide the nervousness in her heart and asked lightly.

La Roland's launch in the water was certainly intended to deplete V.E, but unlike the crown prince, who was bent on expecting Albion and Li Lin to die together, Minerva valued the victory of the game more.

In any case, it is a matter of the country's face. Even if Roland was defeated by the Knights of the Round Table and V.E. was disgraced, Charlemagne, who could send a young man to face the strongest knight in Albion, would not be much better, and people would never appreciate such irresponsible behavior, but would sympathize with Roland and V.E.

Rather than the situation evolve like that, it is better to cooperate with Li Lin and use his huge financial resources and influence to find a way to get through the current difficulties.

Therefore, Li Lin's attitude is very important.

"Father, he—"

When using a certain word, Roland's heart swelled with complicated feelings, and he had to drag out a long note a little.

“...... 'V.E Foundation Co., Ltd. will fully support this competition. ‘”

"Really?"

Too ambiguous, and a little bit of bad intentions, is indeed the standard answer that Li Lin will give Minerva. It is impossible to guess the true meaning of the puzzle until it is revealed, but he carefully appreciates the troubled expressions of others while arranging matters on the side.

(Just thinking about that guy's face makes me feel so bad that I almost throw up.) ）

"Then let's work hard, Roland. ”

Wearing the mask of a model student, the princess and the boy shook hands for the first time, and through the well-made gloves, they passed on to each other a hard touch without heat.

＃＃＃＃＃＃＃＃＃

His hands and feet were spread widely, and no matter how high-class the clothes he was wearing, Roland was like a frog crushed by a wheel, lying flat on the grass, and from face to body he was telling "I'm dying of exhaustion".

I also want to know that in the process of communicating face-to-face with a princess who tempts you from time to time, beware of the other party's language traps, clichés, and listening to the progress of the situation, the rules of the game, precautions, and other tedious content, the body cannot be shaken in the slightest - of course, physical and psychological pressure will be enormous.

After explaining everything clearly and walking out of the principal's office, Roland did not go back to his room as soon as possible, but went straight to the open-air hot spring bathroom under construction, ready to wash away the physical and mental exhaustion with hot water. As a result, I saw a notice hanging at the door of the hot spring bath, saying that the opening time would be delayed because of the equipment maintenance.

Waiting for the opening time to come, the exhausted teenager lay on his back on the lawn outside the bath like an overdrunk drunkard.

"It's amazing that the royal family who do this kind of thing every day is amazing......"

Looking back on the exchange with Minerva, Roland couldn't help but mutter. The one in his own house is actually even more amazing, but for the sake of his promise to give full support, it's better not to complain.

The most important thing now is how to deal with the upcoming events......

As the boy frowned and thought, the low bushes made a sound of snoring, and reflexively got up and parted the bushes in front of him, trying to see whether it was the little beast or Mr. Thief.

Because this action was taken for granted, Roland missed an important concern.

Whoa-

There was a sound of water.

The boy who pushed aside the bushes was dumbfounded, and his thoughts were completely frozen by the scenery in front of him.

In front of him, there was a short-haired girl with blond hair standing naked in the hot spring. (To be continued......)
