I Became the Student Council President of the Academy City

13 – Boyhood ~Let’s have an audience with the emperor~

As a result, this terrorism was concluded to be an outside action.

It wasn’t that there were no suspicious parts, such as Jungnangjang who seduced Sehee, or a servant of the Yeon family who knew the family’s geography, but it was difficult for the Yeon family as well as the imperial family to investigate this in detail.

Jungnangjang, who appears to be the mastermind behind this terrorism, was found dead before he knew it, and the assassins and servants who carried out the terrorism suddenly die one after another when they try to spit out information.

No matter what method they used, they would die the moment they tried to tell them who was behind them, so the only thing the family and the imperial family could know was that they were under a strong ban.

Perhaps professional investigators from the imperial family would come down and dig into this in more detail, but it was impossible to come to a conclusion right now.

On the other hand, the father, who was cooperating with the interrogation of the assassins who had tracked down and captured the family’s snitches, strongly denied any relationship with the assassins through a conversation with the emperor.

The emperor’s vassals even pointed out the Yeon family as the culprits of this terror, so my father showed the utmost cooperation to clear himself of this false accusation.

Although it is a Yeon family with excessive power for a single family, the eyes of the vassals were already not good, but it seems that this incident has completely pierced their hatred.

Even the emperor didn’t think that the Yeon family would cooperate, but it seemed like he couldn’t directly defend it as it was a terror within the family.

Fortunately, the emperor still took a neutral stance.

This terrorism is a very good cause for hostility against us even from the perspective of the imperial family.

It was fortunate for the Yeon family that the emperor did not take the bandwagon.

If the imperial family and the royal family form a hostile relationship, we will be the ones who suffer more damage.

At times like this, you’d have to say that the untitled name your father got shined.

To be honest, if it wasn’t for the name of the 10th empire, the emperor would have been kicked out long ago.

The emperor was not harmed by this terror, but the fact that this happened on a site managed by the family was a huge mistake in itself.

As a result of this incident, the family had to take responsibility in various ways, such as giving up many interests to the imperial family.

Dengdala The emperor’s visit to the performance was canceled for security reasons, and rumors circulated that the Hwangryong Festival, which was the main reason why the imperial family came all the way here, was also cancelled.

Of course, the rumor of the cancellation of the Yellow Dragon Festival itself quickly turned out to be groundless.

In the first place, less than a week left of the Yellow Dragon Emperor.

There were many warriors who came from a long distance to Yeonju, and there were many merchants who unreasonably drew funds for this Hwangryong Festival, so there were many problems with the sudden cancellation.

Above all, thanks to the emperor himself actively insisting on holding it, it was decided that the Hwangryongje would be postponed for a week instead.

The imperial family took the direction of increasing the number of escorts and conducting a more thorough investigation of the participants during the week.

I’m not sure, but if your identity is uncertain, you could be disqualified.

On the other hand, at the same time as the decision to hold the Yellow Dragon Festival, my father became even more busy.

From what the servants have heard, it seems that the father is directly moving to strengthen the guards of the Yellow Dragon Emperor.

Now that even the concert tour was canceled for security reasons, if there was a terrorist attack at the Hwangryong Festival, something irreversible would happen, so my father was thoroughly preparing.

On the other hand, the emperor was having a very quiet time.

The reason was that the schedule was left empty when the previously scheduled performance tour was canceled for security reasons.

If this was the imperial palace, I would have spent my time doing other chores, but this is the Yeon family, not the imperial palace.

No matter how crazy the emperor was, he hadn’t brought any business documents to the inspection area, so he was just wasting his time.

The emperor, who had been on such an unexpected vacation, seemed to be taking a sufficient rest while enjoying a dinner with the imperial family.

He had lunch with his family, spent time with his children, and went for a walk with the concubine who accompanied him on behalf of the empress.

As the emperor was sincere in his affairs to the extent that he was said to have married work, his family was very happy with this break.

In particular, the reaction of her concubine, Hwa-bi Lee (梨花妃), was intense. How happy she was, the cold impression she had at first went away, and a beauties with a friendly impression appeared and wanted someone.

Is this a reward for spending time with the Emperor?

Hwabi Lee showed favor to the Yeon family, who replaced the emperor’s schedule, while she showed interest in Na, his son, on behalf of the absent family head.

She was an unwelcome interest, to be honest, personally… ….

I wish I had just paid her attention to her mother like the first time, but unfortunately for me she was very curious about me.

Every time she visited me, she asked me about Sehee, whether she was on good terms with the children of the empress despite being her concubine.

What do you think of Sehee?

Do you have a favorite girl?

Sehee is so nice and pretty.

I hope you always get along well with Sehee, etc.

Like the lady next door, I got tired of talking about Sehee every time we met.

Maybe it’s thanks to Se-hee who visits her every day and Hwa-bi Lee, who always impresses her whenever she’s bored.

In the end, I gave up and shut myself in the training ground.

What? The royal family’s response? Sogaju’s responsibility?

I don’t know, my mother will take care of it.

I believe in her mother.

Rather than that, it’s more important for me to grow one step further.

Because of the fight with the assassin last time, it felt like the wall was slightly peeping through.

I wanted to train right away on the day of the terror attack, but I didn’t have time because I had to deal with the royal family.

Now that I’ve left all useless things to my mother, I should focus on my training with peace of mind!

For a moment, I wondered if Se-hee would come to the training ground, but it was probably a mistake.

She sneaked out without telling her.

Since he also issued a mutiny order to nearby servants, even if Se-hee wants to find it, he won’t be able to find it.

.

.

.

———I once thought that.

“Ohhh! Is this your training ground! It’s very spacious!”

I opened my mouth wide at the entrance of the training ground, looking at Sehee with shining eyes.

“Oh, how did you come? You must have kept it a secret from the servants?”

“Hmm? There’s no way a woman who saw you wouldn’t know where you are.”

“No no, I didn’t tell you…”

“Ha ha ha! It’s okay! You can tell by rough feeling.”

Is it a beast?

“Anyway, disrespectful. How dare she disappear without a word!”

“If she disappears without a word, can’t she think something’s going on?”

“No!”

Hey, don’t put on a confident face.

“So, are you training in a place like this?”

“That’s right. It’s a useful place no matter how you look at it.”

“She’s not good at things like this, so she doesn’t know.”

Se-hee, who was carefully looking at the weapons on display in the corner, turned around and looked this way.

“So, how long will you be here?”

“Well, I haven’t set a specific time.”

“Is that so?”

After saying that, Sehee sat down on the floor and looked this way.

“What?”

“Hmm? Ah, don’t mind the original girl and continue her training.”

“No, you want to stay?”

“Don’t worry, I won’t disturb you.”

Her eyes shone brightly, as if she was having fun just by looking at them.

It wouldn’t be fun to look at it like that.

Well, I’ll leave when I get tired.

With that in mind, I quickly turned my attention away from her and focused on her training.

.

.

.

“Whoa.”

I caught my breath and turned my head to look behind me.

The scenery outside the window has already passed the evening and is close to night.

In the corner of the training ground, Sehee was squatting and sleeping soundly.

Looks like he fell asleep while watching the training.

“I’ll have to tell the waitress to prepare a late-night snack.”

Because if I had been there during training, I would not have eaten dinner.

Flinching─

“Hmm?”

As soon as I carried Se-hee, I felt movement on my back.

“Are you awake?”

But contrary to expectations, all I could hear was the sound of even breathing.

Is it because of my mood…….

I left the training ground carrying Se-hee, who showed no signs of waking up.

───

A few days have passed since Sehee found the training ground.

In the meantime, the imperial family started visiting the training ground as expected.

The imperial family, who admired the exterior of the training ground, once again admired the inside of the training ground and the numerous magics surrounding it.

It’s hard to see a training ground like this even in the imperial family where the imperial family resides.

Anyway.

Starting with Sehee, the first person to visit the training ground was the 2nd Prince, who had a displeased expression on his face.

When he came to pick up Se-hee, he saw me inside the training ground and blatantly frowned.

Hey, from the first time he saw me, he seemed like he didn’t like me, so I wasn’t too annoyed.

I rather felt a little sorry for the guy who was rejected by Se-hee and left alone.

After the 2nd prince left alone, the 1st prince came.

Unlike the 2nd prince, who was the same age as me, the 1st prince is already in middle school.

He watched my practice from afar, gave only formal praise and then disappeared.

He was like an incomprehensible serpent.

In a way, he may have inherited the emperor’s own pace.

The next one to come was Lee Hwa-bi.

I can’t believe I came all the way here myself.

Even here, we just talked about Sehee and then went back.

No matter how you look at it, she’s the lady next door.

Even the fact that they handed over sweets before leaving was perfect.

Well, everything was fine up to this point.

All of them are members of the royal family, but they weren’t very picky about manners, and Sehee, Lee Hwabi, and other princes didn’t show any hostility towards me.

On the contrary, if you look only at the image you showed, wouldn’t it be friendly?

That’s why I was caught off guard.

Yes, I was careless.

I don’t even know who the top of them is.

The problem is that I allowed entry without thinking about what Seonhwa said about the visitors.

“Are you Yeon Jeseong?”

The first thing I heard was a deep, familiar voice.

The voice that reminds me of a famous voice actor called me using an unfamiliar tone.

At the same time, I reflexively turned my head to look at the visitor.

“…God.”

Eyes with deep vertigo.

A stout body built with small muscles and a golden dragon robe covering it.

A knife with a sharp edge at the waist.

“It’s really hard to see.”

Emperor The 13th Emperor who rules the Empire.

The Yongle Emperor looked down at me with unknown eyes.

───

‘Small.’

It’s too small.

It was the impression that Emperor Yongle felt when he saw Yeonjeseong for the first time.

I wonder if he’s only 10 years old now.

The little boy was perfectly normal except that he had a mask on his face.

The inner energy felt is weak, and the power it possesses seems insignificant.

A child like this neutralized 5 skilled assassins and saved the princess.

If he hadn’t been directly informed by the princess, even the emperor wouldn’t have believed him easily.

“Meet the sun of the Empire.”

“Yes.”

The figure of recognizing oneself and taking an example right away seems very clever, but that was not enough to satisfy the emperor’s lofty eyes.

‘The owner of the kite praised it so much, and even the princess and the crown prince came to visit her in person… I don’t know from the outside.’

But he wasn’t disappointed.

Because the [Real bastards] He knew were all those who couldn’t be judged from the outside.

Wasn’t that child even deliberately avoiding himself as the emperor?

There must be a hidden number.

“I don’t know if Jim interfered with your training.”

“This is absurd. It is rather an honor for the sun of the Empire to come to such a humble place.”

“Heh heh, I don’t know what to do with Jim being gilded like this even though he’s young.”

If you want to determine the [Real bastard], He must also show appropriate behavior.

Thinking so, the emperor continued his words with a bright light in his eyes.

“From the looks of it, it looks like he was polishing his fist. If it’s okay, would it be okay for Jim to take a look?”

“…However.”

“Heh heh, there’s nothing to be offended about. Even if I look like this, I caught the Demon King when I was younger, so nothing you need to worry about will happen.”

To Yeon Je-seong, who showed a passive reaction, the emperor approached him aggressively enough to seem reckless at first glance.

Meanwhile, Yeon Je-seong, who was sweating coldly under the mask at the emperor’s words, nodded his head with difficulty, managing his trembling voice.

“Then…Please teach me.”

“Good! Hello!”

“Did you call, Your Majesty?”

“I’m going to sparring with this kid from now on. Bring Jim’s stuff.”

“I will be coloneled immediately.”

The general, heavily armed with armor, bowed his head deeply at the emperor’s words and went out of the training ground.

Soon after, the general who had gone outside came in and returned with a large shield and a wooden sword in his arms.

“Here I am.”

“Hmm.”

Fluttering─

The emperor, who immediately took off his jacket to reveal his tempered upper body, received a huge shield and sword from the general and wore it in both his hands.

Kung-!

“Even training equipment is an object with sufficient power. I will adjust the power appropriately, so you can display your skills to your heart’s content.”

Even if you just put the shield on the ground, the ground goes down completely and there is a roar.

When the ground couldn’t withstand the enormous weight of the shield, the recovery magic in the training ground automatically activated and scattered green light everywhere.

“Whoa. It’s a pretty great place.”

Looking at it with an interesting gaze, the emperor watched Yeon Jeseong’s movements.

Yeon Je-seong, who warmed up meticulously, took off the mask covering his face and showed sharp momentum.

‘Ohh.’

Is it the mask of moderation?

Only then did the emperor realize the identity of the mask and raised the corners of his mouth as if he was having fun.

At the same time, he felt the eyes scanning his whole body and heard short words of Yeon Jeseong.

“Then I’ll go first.”

“Good.”

Kwaan—!

“…!”

Even before his answer was delivered, the emperor immediately strengthened his lower body and received the attack.

As the shield roared and Yeon Je-seong’s fist dug in, the emperor lowered the shield with a skillful movement and aimed his sword at his abdomen.

‘I won’t use my energy. Let’s see your skills.’

As I was watching Yeon Je-seong with a curious gaze, I saw him withdraw his sword with a flowing motion and approach it more closely.

“Excellent!”

“Big…!”

However, block his approaching movement with a shield and step back to secure distance.

“It’s a good move, but if there’s an obstacle, it’ll break the flow!”

At the same time, raise your shield and charge at him.

As the large shield approached with physical force, Yeon Jeseong was startled and stepped on the shield and jumped up.

Yeon Je-seong, who rose high in the air, rotated his body and raised his feet. As if in response, the emperor lowered his posture and raised his shield.

Kwaaang——!

“Hmm, the attack power isn’t bad.”

No, on the contrary, it is phenomenal compared to his age group.

“But that’s all.”

On the contrary, there was nothing to see other than that.

To be honest, if he had focused on avoiding the attack just now, he wouldn’t have had to engage in a tiring battle of strength.

“This is why turtles are annoying.”

On the other hand, Yeon Je-seong, who muttered a little while watching the emperor who easily blocked his attack, rushed once again with an aura in one hand.

“Hmm. If it’s the same method, it won’t work, right?”

“Well, what about this…!”

In an instant, his palm spread out and collided with the shield.
