Let's take a look at the hideout123.

“Are you nervous?”

“If it goes like this, maybe in one to two years.”

Anat spoke quite lightly.

“……Didn’t it all take hold of Torrang’s branch?”

"that. That is the most important thing right now.”

At Eud's question, Anat nodded his head.

“That’s right. I've caught Torrang now, and I'm roasting not only Jax and my current mother, but also Bunga. But- that is only now.”

Was it like saying that there was a time limit?

“As a student, the fact that I now hold the real power of Torran is possible because of a man’s guardianship.”

"one man.......? Ah."

“Yeah, you can figure it out. Eud, you too.”

It is clear that Helix died by Mother Mage, and there is a person who temporarily inherited the head of the household.

he's right-

“I am the head of Torrang, Ains Torrang.”

“And the current interim head of Torran, my grandfather.”

On the other hand, he is Jax's grandfather - Herix's father.

Well, it's never weird.

No matter how good Anat is for his age, he has the ability to revive his family.

'Student' to 'Child'. In addition, the child of a concubine whose orthodoxy has lost even his father.

The fact that he doesn't have something to guarantee his power doesn't go away.

Didn't Gareth also tell the past?

Even if Eud wants to do something, she's still a child.

So he still left it to them.

Although he has a natural genius, his age can't help it.

In order for such a child to show his abilities in the family, he needs someone's back.

And the one who played that role is the story of Ains Torrang.

There, Eud understood why Anat spoke as if there was a 'time limit'.

The current head of the temporary head of Thorran is quite old.

In addition to senility, he is said to have suffered from several chronic diseases.

Ainz Torrand will die within a year or two - that was the judgment of many noble families.

In other words, Anat Torrand is now convinced.

“Are you saying that after Ainz Torrang died, the Bunga would immediately turn their backs on you?”

"That's right."

Anat turned his body slightly from his seat and walked slowly through the garden of the Four Enix hideout.

“The reason the branch recognizes my power now is because I have my grandfather. And to the end, the ‘skills of restoring the family’ are superior to them. Leaving it to me is because I can gain weight faster for my family. So you're just pretending it's cooked."

Indiscriminately grown weeds and unknown grasses are trampled on softly.

“And now, according to my calculations, Torrand will be able to get back to the size of a mid-sized family in a year or two.”

It is so small that it cannot be compared to the size of Torran three years ago...

Considering the size of the current Torrang, it was a considerable recovery rate.

However, the fact that it takes a year or two to recover - is in line with the remaining lifespan of Ainz Torrand to some extent.

“And the branch families, if the family recovers to a certain extent and even the grandfather dies—”

Anat pretended to hit her own neck with the hand she had reached out to Eud earlier.

“I don’t have a guardian, and as I inherited the maid’s blood, I will no longer see you. If that happens, should I say that I will have an unfortunate accident?”

“… Miss Anat, that’s it.”

At the word of an unfortunate accident, Suga's expression of confusion rose.

Even Eud remembered those words.

It is said that Anat Torrand's biological mother died in an 'unfortunate accident', apparently.

What that meant, even Eud could fully understand.

assassination.

Whether Thor and Bunga move directly,

Whether it was commissioned by a group of assassins who were secretly in the Eugracia Underground Guild,

It's a story about killing people pretending to be an 'unavoidable accident'.

so that.......

Before the death of the interim head of Anat Tor Lang, he is trying to build up his power base so that he doesn't get blown away.

To be honest, it looks like they had been preparing for it before.

However, as the seriousness of Ainz Torrand's condition has recently been added, the movement towards the Bunga has become more serious.

Because of this, Anat had to spur the preparations even more.

If you stay relaxed, you never know when Bunga will come to stab you in the back.

And now.

To accomplish one of those preparations, he came to Eud.

Power base- just to ask you to join one of the Academy factions.

“If you look at the factional struggle lightly, it’s just a fight between students in school… but, as you know, it’s not going to end like that.”

It may have a slightly different meaning to international students, but the factional battles of the Eugracia family are political.

Joining a faction means that we will join the aristocratic society in the future.

This academy is going to hold the future power and cooperation system. That's why the Phoenix side doesn't set the 'executive level' easily.

Even with the entrance of Truth and Lenian this year, several families have been working on it since three years ago.

In order for Anat to establish a base of power in this academy, joining a faction is essential.

However, Thorrand has been stamped on the whole of Metri by Jax and Herix in the past.

Even if you want to join from a small and medium-sized faction and go up, most of the factions take notice of Metri.

Even the aristocratic children who used to play the role of Jax's nephew are trying not to get involved with Torrang as much as possible.

They also belong to the Metri faction or a lower faction.

He is trying his best not to be photographed any more.

The other 10 aristocratic powers are not discussed at all because they cannot ride because the lines are different.

In the midst of that, Anat's thoughts came to me - that it was the Phoenix family.

A family that is the 10th noble and has little influence on the 3rd noble force.

A family that is on an equal footing with that Metri, but doesn't need to pay any attention to it.

For Anat Torrang, the Phoenix family was the most qualified helper.

However, it is Torrang whose power base has been shaken since its overwhelming defeat by Phoenix.

It's definitely a hostile relationship with Thor.

To use the power of phoenix in the role of such a torrang is ironic and blatant indeed.

Of course, Eud didn't think that Anat had just spoken to him on the basis of such a background.

Obviously, Anat said that she was "like" Eud.

In other words, now this Torrand girl sympathized with Eud...

‘Because I thought Eud wouldn’t turn down’, he made the offer.

Perhaps he had read Eud's reasoning roughly, Anat smiled as he looked at Eud.

He stops roaming the weedy garden, and he turns back towards Ewood.

“Of course, I am not shamelessly asking for help. Jax's work. I'm well aware that Torrang can never be compared to Phoenix. So, I’m going to ask you to make a deal.”

"deal?"

“If you put me into the faction of Phoenix and serve as a basis for taking the real power of Torrang-”

Anat drew closer to Eud.

“I will also help you take over the real power of Phoenix.”

ok-

As if to show the attractiveness of the conditions he put forward,

He whispers to Eud, holding the girl's body tightly.

“Let’s hold hands with me. Eud Hollight Phonics.”

In a sweet voice, it delivers a voice to the boy's ears.

“You are in a similar situation to me. you're the same kind as me youngest. It’s also the adoption of the branch.”

“Common sense, it is a position where you can never receive a position of succession. But with my help, that would be a different story.”

“My ability, my resourcefulness, my genius – at the risk of everything.”

“Victory not only for the upcoming Black Lion faction, but also for the upcoming faction struggle.”

"Since the Academy's top."

“It guarantees an improvement equal to the truth.”

“In order for you to beat your sisters and take the real power of the next phoenix—”

Anat stroked Eud's body alluringly.

“-I, Anat Torrangi, I promise you the best help for Eud Hollight Phoenix. These are the terms of the deal I am offering you.”

It must have been a proposal that everyone would find attractive if it were aristocratic children who did not have a chance to seize power.

***

but........

Until this moment, Anat would not have known.

He knew he had made one huge calculation error here.

“- eh.”

"......Huh?"

Eud's expression, as he listened to the story with a slight strain, began to become perplexed.

Was that a “problem” with the current Phoenix family?

Only Suga, who knew what kind of conversations had taken place in the Phoenix mansion over the past three years, only let out a small moan, saying, “Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.

***

Anat felt something strange.

Obviously, if you are offered a deal like this, one out of three must respond.

“Are you going to help me take the real power of Phoenix?!” - Like ‘heartbreaking’.

“No, that can’t be possible……?” – such as ‘unbelievable’.

And the most annoying reaction, "I swore allegiance to Phoenix" - such as 'honesty'.

So one of the three is definitely going to come out.

If it was a noble child with no possibility of a successor even though he had sufficient abilities, that kind of reaction would naturally come out.

And Anat had the confidence to persuade whatever reaction came.

He also had the confidence to help him get real power.

If the Master of Four Enix helps him, he will be able to aim for the position of head of the family together.

In Anat's head, the calculation of the process had already been completed.

By the way.......

What kind of reaction is this now?

None of the three predicted reactions.

It is also not a response within the assumed error range.

In fact, it is a reaction that has reached the level of ‘what should I do with this……’.

Expectations and reactions were so different that Anat couldn't quite predict what Eud was thinking right now.

He's got a plan, but something feels weird.

Besides, he's been talking with his body tight since before, but there's not even a commotion.

As Anatro, I was trying to put up with shame and stimulate myself with my clumsy knowledge...

Soon, Ewood opened his mouth.

“……Uh, over there.”

“Yeah, yes!”

Anat, unwittingly, reacted violently to Eud's actions.

And Eud said he was really embarrassed.

“Anat, no, Anat-senpai, I’m sorry.”

“…………”

It was revived to the point of respect for how embarrassing it was.

Eud continued his speech with the utmost caution.

“Right now, in Phoenix, our brothers and sisters don’t want to receive the head of the head office…”

And what Anat heard was an incredible story.

".......Huh?"

Eud slightly avoided Anat's questionable eyes.

“None of the three members wanted to take over, so we agreed to continue discussing with the family in the future-”

“No, no, what are you talking about, is that?! Heir to the 10th aristocrat?! The head of the great phoenix force?! Does it make sense that you don’t want to receive it?!”

“Ugh-”

“Master Eud?!”

Anat, who was close enough to seduce Ewood, immediately changed his posture and shook Ewood's shoulder.

If you belong to a noble family-

No, it's not just aristocratic families.

The seat of 'the 22nd head of Phonics' that everyone who knows Phoenics will drool.

The position of being a part of the 10th aristocrat and the head of a super-giant force.

However, the children of the current Phoenix family had little will to succeed the head of the family.

If any one of the three said they would take over, they would gladly allow it.

Thanks to this, Gareth and Lorona also suffered from quite a headache for the past three years.

It's Anat who always had a confident expression on her face so as not to look down on her...

Today, for the first time since coming to the academy, I put on an embarrassed expression.(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

***

“The youngest, it’s gone.”

“Eud, he didn’t say anything to the real sisters and left~!”

Tiana put her men's dormitory pass on her finger and swung her.

Selena is walking calmly next to him.

...but the expression on his face was dissatisfying.

Both are pissed off at the youngest leaving the dormitory.

where the hell did you go

If there is an animal with the role of Jeon Seo-gu like Wise, I would ask you to find it.

Among the magic, there is a magic that detects the location of a specific opponent, but...

These older sisters, who had just entered the third year of magic, had not yet learned.

Exploration magic is quite advanced magic.

Because of that, even high-ranking wizards can't use it easily.

It is said that Jessica is barely entering the intermediate level in the case of search magic.

Well, Jessica is a fire magic major.

Of course, if these older sisters learned the magic of exploration, that day, Eud's freedom would be lost.

Even for the sake of Eud, it would be better if the two sisters learned the search magic a little later.

It was time for Tiana and Selena to walk down the hallway, with so many complaints.

“Ah- Tiana-sama, Selena-sama?!”

“It’s Ladarus.”

“Radarus, what’s going on?”

Radarus was coming from the hallway at a fast pace.

After that, the girls of the Ragnaril faction, including Yurika Éale, were with them.

Like everyone else, Tiana and Selena, they were wearing the men's dormitory pass around their neck.

However, it was a little different from usual.

"what? There are only ten people today?”

“……Are you acting separately because it’s a day off?”

Over the past week, there have always been around 20 or so crowds.

For some reason, the size of the Ragnaril faction has decreased today.

Upon hearing this, Yurika immediately explained the situation.

“He said that the maximum number of access permits that can be given to one room is 10. It was negligent. For that reason, we came here by selecting ten people through rock-paper-scissors.”

""Ah-""

...Most students probably don't know that there are restrictions on issuing passes.

It was strange information that I found out thanks to the polarity of the Ragnaril faction.

Soon, Radarus, with plump blonde hair, spoke urgently.

“Well, more than that! Where are Tiana, Selena, and Eud?! Did both of you come to see Eud?!”

“Eud is not in the dormitory now!”

“I was going to look for you from now on.”

"Ah.......! I think it would be good to see all three of them...! First of all, let’s go down to the lobby together, the two of you!”

“What the hell is going on, Radarus?”

“Factional Struggle! This is a preview of the faction battle, Tiana-sama!”

““……!!!””

Faction War-

Even for Phoenix, who wants to fight the Black Lion faction in the future, it was never a word to pass up.

“Truth-sama’s Metri faction, Axius-sama’s Griffiner faction, and a huge faction of the same class waged a faction war! The schedule is now posted in the dormitory lobby!”
