“Hi, I’m glad you called me. Shall we have a drink?”

 “I told you many times, I’m underage. …… Oh, have you already started drinking?”

 I was with Remyl in a bar a short distance from the school.

 It is not often that I call her, however, as I was running late for work at the school, we decided to meet nearby.

I finished earlier than planned so I was going to wait for Remyl, however, she came first and was already drinking. 

I sat down opposite Remyl, who beckoned me with a glass in her hand.

“What would you like to drink? You can order whatever you like, as it will obviously go towards my expense account.”

“I’ll have a soft drink as usual. And now, I called you because……”

“Wait. I always say that you should at least update on how things are going. How’s Miss Iris doing?”

“I’ve got something to tell you about Miss Iris.” 

“What? About Miss Iris ……?”

Remyl looked a little surprised.

From her reaction, it seemed that she did not have any information about Iris.

“I’ve heard that Miss Iris has a marriage proposal.”

“Oh, marriage? Well, considering Miss Iris’ age – hmm? marriage!?”

With a bang, she slammed the desk and stood up, leaning forward. I raised my right hand to stop her.

“ Calm down, please. You don’t know anything about it, do you?

 “I’ve never heard of it at all……Wait. Who is the fiancé?”

“I heard the fiancé is the son of house Ranbelk.

“The house Ranbelk, …… Well, that explains a lot.”

“Do you have any idea what’s going on?”

“Yeah, a while ago Haylon gave me a meaningful talk. It made sense.”

” Heiron- Was it Heiron Stilletto, Knights Captain of the Holy Armour Knights Order?”

“Yes. Do you know him a little since he helped us when the Empire’s platoon came?”

“No, I’ve barely spoken to him. …… What did he say to you, Captain Stilletto?”

” He passed on to us the information of the Magic Cult that has been rumoured recently……. Well, as I told you, the knights are not in a position to work hand in hand with each other.”

Remyl said that explicitly.

The five knights in the kingdom are, of course, cooperative, however, they also have independent powers. Until recently, the ” Escort Knights ” led by Teuros Greva were the most powerful in the country. After all, they are the knights who guard the centre of the city where the current king, William Tilloch, resides.  They support Zeil Tyrok, who is the son of William Tilloch. Even if Iris or someone else becomes the king, the fact remains that they have supported the former royal family. If nothing had happened, they would have remained the largest force. However, the power of Escort Knights has been weakened by Zeil’s scandals. In other words, at present, including the Knights of the Black Wolf, to which I belong, there is a power struggle. 

In light of this, as far as I heard from Remyl,

“‘Is it the Holy Armour Knights Order that supports house Ranbelk?”

“That’s right. In other words, the marriage of house Reinfell with house Ranbelk implies an alliance against us. We need to find out whether house Reinfell has agreed to this though…”[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]

“The house Ranbelk is, as I remember, a prominent family in magic, aren’t they? They don’t belong to any knights, though.”

“They are the best when it comes to the arts of magic. Heiron told me that house Ranbelk and the Holy Armour Knights Order are working together to combat the Magic Cult.”

“I’m not too familiar with the Magic Cult, but …… what kind of organization is it?”

“The name of the organization is Bulfaus, and it claims to promote the arts of magic. By the way, although it is not officially recognized, the sorcerers association is led by house Ranbelk.”

There are several organizations in this country regarding magic. The two largest forces among them would be those two: Bulfaus and the sorcerers association.

“Both organizations claim to promote the arts of magic……, but they are classified as conservative and extremist. There is no major problem yet, but I’ve heard Bulfaus has become more active recently. –I’m afraid I’ve got off track a little. Anyway, the marriage is connected to the alliance between the Knights of the Black Wolf and the Holy Armour Knights Order, but if the marriage between house Ranbelk and house Reinfell is concluded, Ranbelk will likely be the king.”

In the event of a marriage, Iris would be the one to marry into house Ranbelk – that’s what she was talking about.

“Isn’t it possible that Ranbelk might be the one to marry into house Reinfell?”

“In the case of an ‘ordinary’ nobleman’s marriage, yes. But not the four great noble households. It is a customary thing, and Miss Iris is not an exception. I’m sure she’ll marry into house Ranbelk “

“The custom of the four great noble households, you said? But it seems to me that Miss Iris will refuse the marriage.”

“Well, of course, she will refuse it. But the reason for her refusal will be important…….

“What reason? I think Miss Iris would refuse …… to do so because she is trying to become a knight. She might not say it out in the open, though.”

“It would be a problem if people knew that.” 

Remyl could not find the way out. I felt like it had been a long time since I had seen her in serious distress.

“I’ll casually talk to Iris about it. I’m going to be with her as an escort on that day.”

“……, you are indeed my knight. I’m glad you’re so quick to help……. I’ve got a lot of things to think about, including the lady Eina situation.”

“Oh, by the way, I had to ask you about Lady Eina, didn’t I? And one more thing–didn’t my sister visit you?”

“‘Miss Mariel?　No, she hasn’t come to me.”

 “…… I see. Then may I ask you something about Lady Eina?

“I’m not even sure I can talk about that in that much detail. …… The reason she came to the capital in the first place was to build a friendship between the kingdom and the empire. I never thought she’d use the study abroad option.

“It seems that she is going to enroll in my campus.”

“…… I’ve received reports from another knight about that. By the way…”

“If you’re including Lady Eina ‘s bodyguard, would you be willing to discuss my salary?”

 “Haha, You are really……. an excellent knight, aren’t you?

Remyl shrugged her shoulders and said that. It seemed that Remyl had a lot of problems, anyway  I understood the current situation roughly.

The only thing I couldn’t figure out was what happened to my sister.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
