Episode 64. If it just exploded.

After the situation calmed down, Maya headed to her private room and took the coffee Feria had made her to her mouth with an expression of disrespect.

“I’m sorry, Peria, stop reluctantly… ….”

“No, it could be. To be honest, it’s normal to scream every day, so what’s the big deal about sticking your nose in the window?”

“Ugh.”

What could not be denied, even with lies, was that Maya herself was also quite aware of her own eccentricities.

Didn’t she make a teacher who had business with her just a while ago work?

‘I should consider it fortunate that the soundproofing of the student council room is good.’

The moment she felt her heart throb with a sense of shame.

Seeing that, Feria smiled and began to bring the cup from her hand to her mouth.

“It’s been a long time since I sat face to face with the president and drank her coffee.”

“It’s been a while… …. Come to think of it, how long has it been since she had tea time with Peria?”

“It was only once. Just once, when the president dragged me into the student council.”

After that, with the privilege of the student council, the continuation of labor after skipping regular classes.

Nonetheless, Peria was faithful to her clerk’s duties as one of Maya’s close aides.

It was a very difficult job, but she knew very well that the most difficult job was to be the chairman.

“It’s been about half a year since we’ve been together, so many things have happened during that time, but there’s never been a crisis like this one. She was forced to leave because the accountant was graduating early…….”

“We should understand that. Because the other person was none other than the princess of a country.”

How can you focus only on your studies and work in a matter that determines the rise and fall of a country?

She has no intention of resenting her now. It was just bad luck, it was a thing of the past, and she just ignored it.

“In the meantime, I feel very fortunate that that child came to visit me like this.”

That child…….

It must have been about the boy who was still sleeping on the sofa in the president’s office. Peria looked back at her private room and the connected president’s room, showing her wry smile.

“Come to think of it, today was the last time that kid worked, right? It’s a pity, if I had the capacity to reveal it in a more public setting, I would have recommended it as an accountant.”

“… Feria seems to be kind to Dale.”

“What’s wrong with that? You say you do your work well and listen to the president well?”

Of course, as the condition for joining the student council is not just work ability, attracting students to the student council will be impossible right now.

No, it will be the same in the future.

In the student council, where external image is important, that boy was caught in a condition where he could never be welcomed.

‘I’d like to say that it was a misunderstanding……. It won’t be easy either. He says he’s busy, but I also figured out everything about him through rumors.’

If I had more time and space, wouldn’t I have been able to learn more about that child?

As we had conversations with such self-deprecating thoughts, the time came after school at some point.

“Then the coffee is finished, and I will excuse myself.”

“Are you leaving already?”

“As I said before, I came because I had some free time on my side, so I was wondering if there was anything I could do to help. But since the work is over, I should go on a date with the vacation I’ve been looking for the most.”

“…… Peria.”

“Oh, it’s not like having s*x with the opposite s*x, so don’t worry~”

Feria speaks slyly and laughs briskly.

I was a little uneasy, but since there was no specific ordinance on the prohibition of dating in the school, I had no intention of putting a stop to that part.

However, it is said that there are news that sometimes go beyond the limit.

If left alone, public morals would become vulgar and order in the school could collapse, so the student council president had no choice but to accept it sensitively.

‘It wouldn’t be a bad idea to highlight the importance of health and sports at this time.’

“Come to think of it, the chairman doesn’t have someone like that?”

As she was examining such a plan closely, Feria asked as she looked around the venue while standing at the entrance.

Looking at those eyes shining with curiosity, he seemed very curious.

“The opponent… …. Unfortunately, no such news came from the family. She stressed over and over again that she would not care, at least when she was doing the presidency.”

“No, no, I’m not talking about a fiancé, but whether there is anyone with a heart. For example, the leading manager?”

“…… Peria.”

“No, I’m kidding. hehehe~”

Making her eyes look bloody. Feria terrifyingly leaves her seat.

Seeing her empty seat, Maya sighed deeply and placed her finger on her own forehead.

‘Wayden is that kind of opponent?’

She’s the guy who’s tougher than a woodpecker, to say the least?

That can’t be. In the first place, Weiden was only a person who was recruited as an ally for his own purposes, and he was no different from the other members of the student council when it came to his feelings for him.

I don’t know if that child was an exception to such a contractual relationship…….

– Jjaak!!!!

“…… What am I thinking?”

Maya slapping her own cheeks with both her hands.

The reason why my palms felt hot when they touched my cheeks was probably because the power in my hands was that strong.

“…… I guess I’ll have to get some fresh air.

Maya let out a deep sigh and immediately left the student council room and walked down the hallways of her campus.

She just wants to go for a light walk.

But as if she couldn’t overlook her own existence, by the time she reached her place where she could feel her presence, the students around her began to gather towards her.

“Oh, Chairman? Are you the Chairman?”

“It’s been a while, Chairman.”

“Are you on an inspection tour?”

“Yes, for now… ….”

In fact, one of the tasks of the student council is to inspect the campus.

One of the things you need to know as a president is how the things they dealt with affect the school and how the students respond.

Of course, the words are just inspections, and what I am doing right now is a walk, but as I am in my position, I humbly accepted this as it was also something I had to accept.

“Oh my gosh~ You must be busy with the work of the student council, but how generous are you that you are trying to look at the students with your own two feet?”

“As expected, the magnanimity of the royal family! I’m sure you will become a good leader even after graduating from the academy!”

The students who gathered around her started to open up a conversation by helping out one by one.

Of course, most of them are mouth-watering flattery. She was close to approaching it after seeing that the blood of the chairman and the imperial family flows to the end, but Maya didn’t hate that kind of thing.

It is natural for the descendants of politicians to consider calculating their interests in life. As much as Maya had been taught that way, he wanted to understand and respect them.

Even if there is a political reason involved, it can’t be said that there is absolutely no relationship like friendship or affection in that relationship.

“If you don’t mind, how about having a tea time later?”

“Yes, if the opportunity arises, let’s talk at least once.”

Without a purpose, without checking or noticing each other, we often have a meeting just as a person to person…….

The fact that such an environment is taken for granted is called peace in the world, and as much as Maya pursues that ideology, the fact that the forum for dialogue has opened itself was considered a pleasure.

But…….

“Ah, by the way, I heard a news about the student council recently… ….”

“News?”

“Did I say Dale Enverton? Is it true that the student council has been monitoring and educating him lately?”

A face wrapped up in questions.

Students who didn’t notice the atmosphere started to talk about the expected gossip, but when they faced it, what Maya felt was not anger towards them, but self-harm.

Until you put the child by your side.

She realized that she was no different from them.

***

It wasn’t the first time that rumors were raised.

Even after that, that topic appeared almost without fail in every student I met.

However, rather than answering any questions clearly, Maya chose to leave her seat evasively, saying that she had business or that it was a student council meeting.

Isn’t it a rumor that has already been spread once?

With her perception firmly established, she realized that nothing could be corrected even if she persuaded her through her activities so far.

“No, more than that, I should say I am avoiding being checked by someone.”

Sitting on a bench in her campus plaza, Maya sighed deeply as she clutched her throbbing head.

She’s been crazy about work lately, so she forgot about it for a while. Maris’ student council president is a place that can only be reached with the support of everyone around her.

This is a character who is welcomed by everyone, but at the same time, he should not be hated by anyone.

Origin and environment, nationality, generation…….

Because it’s not easy to get everyone’s support regardless of social status.

‘The reason why there was an excessive amount of work compared to the previous student council was because it was not easy to please everyone.’

Of course, if it was a complete monarchy like the Empire, there would be no need to worry about this, but Maris could never allow such a system.

Since they came from different places in the first place, isn’t there a big difference in their ideology and values?

If we fail to respect such differences, distinguish between peers, superiors and inferiors, and abandon respect, in the end only violence will remain.

In an era where war is extremely wary, it must be avoided.

Therefore, it must be ensured that everyone has equal rights here alone. Even if you don’t, you have to force it.

‘Of course, the equality they claim is only superficial after all.’

All people are equal, and sovereignty is shared by all individuals, not individuals…….

The purpose is really good, but in the end, the path the group should take is limited, so you can’t listen to everyone’s words.

Anyway, everyone has to come together and pick out the most objectified facts to set a course of action.

Some people consider that such an objectified fact was agreed upon by everyone, but the democracy that Maya saw was a concept that justified sacrificing someone for objectivity.

‘If we levy equal taxes on those who have and those who don’t have right now, the gap between the rich and the poor will only get worse. But most people, if they can afford it, will end up ignoring the protesters and choosing to go.’

It’s not a tax, but isn’t that the case with tuition as well?

The reality is that everyone pays the same tuition even though they are not in the same environment.

For some, it’s insignificant money, but for some, it’s going to this academy with a decline in family value or even debt.

In addition to that, lack of points in various parts, etc., Not only classes do not exist, but each view is inevitably different, and this difference in mindset eventually works as an element that divides each other’s class.

‘If classes are divided like that, it would be the public’s choice to sacrifice those with the least power first.’

This academy was just like that.

Even the apparent equality is the result of ignoring the opinions of the minority and the powerless.

For the sake of equality to be revealed externally, forcing harsher absurdities on those who don’t like it……. What is the difference between the root and the witch hunt?

‘To be able to see fragments of the product of madness that existed long ago in a system that is considered to be a more advanced form…’

The victim of such a witch hunt was a child who had been helping her work before.

However, it is impossible to actively explain because of the attention of the majority.

‘Can I really achieve his unfinished dream?’

I will change this academy and further contribute to this era of peace…

Through it, I want to fulfill the ideal of the revolutionary who beheaded the emperor who was a tyrant in the past… The current emperor, who shares the same blood as himself, could not achieve.

I hope to create a society where everyone is respected as an individual, transcending borders and social status, rather than the unification of the continent by force, which was the starting point of the war of conquest.

‘Even for that wish, the problems left behind by the previous emperor are scattered, and the opportunity to fulfill it is finally here. Now that His Majesty is old, he’ll be leaving soon.’

In the era of peace that has come at best, an unfortunate leader who can no longer fulfill his dreams.

I took over his ideology, aimed for the president, and attracted excellent people to my aide.

Isn’t it strange that it’s not funny to be a coward whose only thing to do is to please others and protect his own food bowl?

“Ah.”

Looking back on herself, Maya looked up at the blue sky and expressed her feelings of despair to herself.

“… If only everything exploded.”

If everything in sight could be destroyed and blown away, there wouldn’t be any need to worry like this.

-Kwaaang!!

But right after that, a roaring noise penetrated my ears.

It was only at that time that Maya, who realized the reality, stood up and looked back at the place where the sound of the explosion came from.

“What… ….”

Black smoke rising from beyond the building.

Is it an accident or an intentional event by someone?

No, it won’t be too late to find out about it after heading to the incident site.

‘An explosion occurred at the academy.’

As the chairman, it was something he could never overlook.
