49 The Future of the Empire and the Focindo Family




That was a peaceful discussion.
"What about?

 On the carriage ride back to King's Landing, Marise said with an exasperated look on her face.

 After that, of course, there was no more discussion with the empire as originally planned.
 The headmaster, Dave, has been blabbing on and on.
 Of course, the claims of Rosanlea Academy of Magic were fully accepted.

 So, after the adults did some paperwork, we left the neutral city.
 I heard that Erika and the principal have a lot of things to do after returning to the capital. .......
 I'll leave that to the adults.


 Unlike the way we had gone, on the way back we all rode in a spacious carriage and leisurely made our way to the capital.


"Eri-chan, Eri-chan!

 Lara, who is sitting with her knees bent, asks Erika a question.

What's going to happen to the principal of Disalia Magic Academy?
"Hmm ......

 She raised her glasses with her index finger and said.

You can't escape a death sentence. You've done so much. But that's not all. Not only that, but the teachers involved will also face death ...... and at the very least be thrown in jail, never to return to the Academy.
Then ...... Disalia Academy of Magic is going to be in a lot of trouble, isn't it?
The principal will be executed and most of the teachers will be retired at the very least. The headmaster will be executed and most of the teachers will retire at the very least.

 Hmm. That's a cool analysis.
 I can see what will happen to Disalia Magic Academy with the principal gone and most of the teachers gone.
 I can see it now.

But ...... I think we can hold Disalia accountable, but I'm not sure if that will ...... extend to national issues.
Why is that? I'm not sure what to make of this. It's not like it's just a school issue anymore. ......

 This time, Marise said in a reproachful tone.

I'm frustrated too. But...
Now, the kingdom doesn't want to go to war with the empire either,....... The empire also thought so, and put all the blame on the magic academy. I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that.

 The principal explained this on behalf of Erica.
 But Marise's anger didn't seem to have subsided.

What's that? Kurt has been through so much ...... for political reasons.
MARYS. I don't care that much.
"What?

 Marise rolls her eyes.

I'm even thankful that the Four Wise Men came out and gave me a little fight to pass the time. I'm not even going to be ...... as bad as Marise says I am.
But ......
And I don't want to go to war now either. I want to be a little stronger, and then I want to go to war with the Empire.
Are you going to be stronger than ever?

 What do you mean?
 I still haven't regained all the power of my previous life.

 But I've gotten used to this body.
 Sixty percent of my magic power has caught up with my previous life.
 I think I'm good enough to beat the empire as it is, but ...... I want to rampage at 100% power anyway.

Well, ...... what are we going to do now?

 I mutter to myself.

 Anyway, I know that the Fosind family is the key to the decline of this world.
 I want to enjoy my school life and find out the truth about this world.
 So let's go after the Fosind family, which is also a clue.

Miss Erica.
What is it?
What do you know about the Fosynd family?

 To find out how famous the Fosynds are, I'll start by asking Erika.

"Yes. Of course.

 Dr. Erika answers immediately.

"What kind of people are they?
"Imperial nobility. Dukes, I believe. I've heard that the Fosynds lurk in politics, commerce, ...... and even among the adventurers, and run the empire from behind the scenes.

 This is exactly what the Four Wise Men, Brise, said.
 For a noble family, they are quite powerful.

What's his name, Maynard Fosynd?
Maynard ...... Oh, I think there was one of the Four Wise Men of the Empire who had that name. I've also heard that he's been shrouded in mystery because he hasn't appeared on the stage very often.

 Maynard is a member of the Fosind family, but he has power as one of the "Four Great Sages.
 I'm not sure what to make of that.
 I'm sure we'll have a chance to face them someday.

"Kurt. Are you interested in that person?



 Lara looks right into my face.

"Oh.
I've got a hunch that Kurt and I are going to meet soon. I'm sorry for saying such a strange thing!

 Lara sticks out her tongue a little.

 Lara's intuition is not to be underestimated.
 Then I'd better get ready to welcome Maynard, too.

What else do you know about the Fosynd family?
Hmm, the rest is details. If you're interested, you can go to the library when you get back to the Academy. There are many books about the Fosind family.

 I see.
 I don't think I'll be able to get much meaningful information from those books.

 For now, I'll leave you to think about the Fosynds for now.

Oh, yes.

 Finally.
 Erica said.

One of my students is from the Fosynd family.
