Chapter 23 (1/2)
While Lilim had come to report to the academy, she was also to look into Rudel and the incident She investigated into things outside of Cattleya's report Whether the rumors around the boy were true…the ly quickly
For her little sister Millia knew a majority of it
”I don't really know about Aleist, but's he's quite strong, and everyone says he's the strongest in ouy year Rudel… tries really hard, and while he so direction, he's a good person”
In order to resolve the ru about the truth
”Chlust saved the princes? Not in a million years, sis I mean, he ran away and was nowhere to be found More importantly, if Rudel wasn't there, we'd all have been sacrifices…”
On these contrary accounts, Lilim wondered whether the report had been falsified The more she looked into it, the more her questions were resolved
(So it's Cattleya after all… even if you hate hio this far!?)
But as the two of them drank their tea, down the hallway visible froht unsteadily crossed, half in tears… it was Sophina
Lili her, Sophina raced off in the opposite direction Finding it suspicious, Lilim looked down the path she came…
”That's the way to the infir in tears from such a place?”
After thinking a while, she offered her sister Millia so off In that infirmary that held the same facilities as a hospital, she stopped a random nurse and inquired
”She left the room with the Three Lords' sons in tears!?”
This was a surprise A high knight was a holder of considerable skill, the proud shi+eld of the crown… for such a knight to leave in tears, Liliine the worst Even if they were children, they were three young er as she headed for the room of the Three Lords' sons
”Pardon me!”
Silencing the guards in front of the door with her aura of anger, she forced her way in, only to find Rudel alone He stood, a serious expression on his face as he thought over so his she i things…
”Ah! L-Lilim-san? W-why are you here…”
Noticing her, Rudel offered a so As she returned it, she felt soed in under her own ed the subject
”Don't worry about it More i you?”
She asked what she shouldn't have
”T-truth be told, because of my own inadequacy, I was unable to convey the wonders of this book to my acquaintances…”
The book he held out was, of course, 'How to Pet a Dragon'… seeing the book, Liliave a bitter smile She didn't knohat to say about that book whose title aloneLilim like that, Rudel,
”U-um! Just a little… could you letbook! I want to prove it!”
As Liliht it would be fine if she allowed that much As a result, just like Sophina, red to the ends of her long elf ears, she ran from the infirmary half in tears And Rudel was left alone once more
”So it was no good after all? Do I have to practice some more?”
A few days fors, the palace sent the acadeathered in the … its contents stated…
