The Duke’s Madness

“This… . What is the situation again?”

Arthur laughed along with a murmur.

In the meantime, a handsome blonde haired man entered the classroom.

Leon Madrid shouts in a harsh voice.

“Nice to meet you, juniors-! I’m Leon Madrid! He is a senior who is 5th grade above the juniors!”

“… .”

“But due to unavoidable circumstances, I failed five times, and as of today, I am taking classes with you guys! Just because I’m old doesn’t mean I’m a nerd, so don’t worry hahahahaha!”

The students’ eyes widened at the sound of cheerful laughter.

Professor Chizui was no different.

“… .”

In that awkward atmosphere, the elderly professor let out a deep sigh.

“if… . If a Leon student does something strange or forces you to speak up, or something like that happens… . Please let me know immediately. I’ll take action right away… .”

Leon, who was next to him, screamed in amazement.

“No, Professor Chizui! Surely that measure won’t give you a failing grade? Then I’m already failing for the sixth time!”

“Not six times… . It could be even ten times, Leon student. So… . Please show behavior befitting a student at Arcane University.”

“Even though I’m like this now, I was once the student council president of Arcane University. Isn’t it too much to discuss demeanor?”

Professor Chizui sighs again at this question with a kind smile.

“so… . That’s more sad. A student who even became the student council president… .”

Silent, he waved his hand.

Leon, who turned his gaze, looked around the classroom and hesitated.

“hahahaha!”

Laughing, Leon walks up and sits next to Arthur.

The students who were watching opened their eyes round and murmured.

‘Did you sit next to Arthur Bayern?’

‘With the crazy prince… Dumb Confucius?’

‘That’s… . What other combination?’

In the meantime, Leon, who was sitting next to Arthur, lowered his head and whispered.

“Did I tell you? Is it our destiny?”

At this, Arthur clicked his tongue.

“Tsk. I should have killed him then.”

“what? Did you have to kill me?”

“Didn’t you say that?”

“You did! I heard you!”

At Leon’s retort, Arthur slightly turns his head.

At the same time, a piece of chalk flew right into Leon’s forehead.

“100 million!”

Professor Chizui warns in a cool voice while Leon’s body tilts and loses balance with a moan.

“During class… . Don’t make a fuss, student Leon.”

“… .”

“Arthur next to me… . Don’t even respond to students.”

With these words, Professor Chizui resumes teaching.

In the meantime, it was time for Leon to raise himself up, touching his reddened forehead.

A piece of paper suddenly falls in front of me.

[If you talk to me one more time, I will really kill the prince. Do you know what I mean?]

After checking the contents of the note, Leon blinked.

Then he turned around and looked to the side.

“… .”

I saw Arthur listening to Professor Chizui with an extremely serious expression.

His expression and attitude clearly showed his longing for learning.

‘A mercenary in the back streets at night. Are you a diligent student during the day?’

Leon raised an eyebrow.

‘It’s also unique. It’s good that you went back to school.’

Along with thoughts, Leon also listens to Professor Chizui’s lecture.

Time passed like that, and it was time for the lecture to come to an end.

Professor Chizui turned around and announced the end of class earlier than scheduled.

When the students are puzzled because he always fills the class, Professor Chizui brings out a piece of paper.

“new… . It is a challenge.”

“… .”

“It’s a group assignment… . Verification of your papers through experiments… . It’s a challenge… . The research results are recorded and filmed through the crystal ball I shared… . Two weeks later, in class… . We will have time to verify.”

Students open their mouths in amazement.

‘How long has it been since you finished the assignment? It’s an assignment again?’

‘Is there a group assignment?’

‘ha… . crazy real I’m going to die.’

However, no students complained.

After a month of classes, she realized that this complaint could not go through with Professor Chizui.

Because of that, it was a time when we looked at each other with anxious eyes and hoped to be with a good Jo Won.

Professor Chizui takes out a new document and declares.

“Joe… . No need to worry.”

“… !”

“Already I am your… . I made a suitable combination through the thesis. So, good luck with the members… . By coordinating… . We wish you good results.”

With these words, Professor Chizui announces the number of people assigned to each group.

“First of all, the first group is Arthur Bayern… .”

* * *

The group assignment started with Professor Chizui’s declaration.

Because of that, after class was over, I had a seat at a nearby cafe to discuss with the members, but Arthur couldn’t hide his shy expression.

It was because the team members for the task were Leon Madrid and Jenica Hazel.

‘It’s difficult… . Do I have to study with these clusters of problems?’

One is a thief who stole the secrets of the imperial family.

One is the head of a group leading fanatics.

In many ways, they were people who were not suitable for the crew.

‘But it’s already been decided, so there’s no other way… .’

Now that this was the case, even he, the only sane person, had to be alert.

If you don’t, your hard-earned grade A will be lost.

While Arthur was making that promise, Leon, who was next to him, greeted Yenika.

“I never thought I would meet the rumored eldest daughter of a Hazel entrepreneur like this! Nice to meet you!”

Jenika accepts the greeting with an expressionless expression.

“I am truly honored. Emperor of the Great Empire. To be able to say hello to that descendant like this.”

“Isn’t that too hard? You’re going to do group assignments together from now on?”

A funny question.

However, Jenika did not answer.

Leon looks at Arthur in bewilderment at his cold attitude.

‘Is this his original personality?’

At the silent question, Arthur shrugged.

In the meantime, Jenika stood up from her seat and said.

“I don’t have time, so I’ll get up first. My quota is distributed appropriately and notified… .”

Arthur grabs Jenika’s hand.

The moment Jenika lifted her eyes in surprise at the sudden contact, Arthur warned her with a serious expression.

“Yenika, what are you doing? Should I wear that shirt too?”

“… yes?”

“It’s an announcement two weeks from now, so just set the quota?”

Jenika shuts up.

‘Arthur Bayern… . Did you say the right thing?’

In the meantime, Arthur raised a corner of his mouth and asked a playful question.

“No way, Jenika… . Aren’t you planning to leave everything to us and get points comfortably by yourself?”

Yenika’s expression contorted.

“No what… . Do you think I’ll stick to that?”

At this, Leon, who was next to him, muttered with a serious expression.

“I should have been involved… .”

“… ?”

“Professor Chizui… . It’s no exaggeration to say that assignments account for all of the final exam grades. In other words, if you don’t get a score here, you’re failing like me.”

Jenika’s shoulders tremble.

Meanwhile, Arthur, who was next to him, nodded enthusiastically.

“Absolutely not, failure. So, from now on, we have to put our heads together and decide what to announce.”

“that’s right! I don’t want to fail anymore! I’m already listening to Professor Chizui’s lecture for the sixth time, so I’m dying!”

Arthur and Leon, who are in harmony, hold hands.

Yenika looks at it as if she is dumbfounded.

‘no… . What is the failure… .’

Silent, she shook her head and tried to pull herself out.

As she had a real purpose for entering Arcane University, it didn’t matter whether she failed or not.

So I tried to leave, but for some reason my body wouldn’t move.

Because of that, I turned my gaze and saw Arthur still holding my hand.

“Yenika will attend?”

“… .”

“Yenika received the lowest score on the last assignment, and if she doesn’t attend properly this time, she could really fail.”

Yenika sighs and protests.

“Why is that? Can’t you just take the one with the lowest score?”

“no? You can accept it. But think carefully. Jenika Hazel failed… . It’s definitely not a rumor that benefits Yenika.”

At these words, Jenika trembled.

Beside him, Arthur raised an eyebrow.

“Car, for example… ”

“Until there.”

A trembling Jenika warned, not even trying to hide her blushing face.

“Okay, so go there. Do you see what I mean?”

After hearing the answer he wanted, Arthur nodded at once.

And as if he waited, he proposed.

“Once every two days, we get together like this to study and examine our quotas.”

“… .”

“And the experiment starts five days before the announcement. how is it? Do you think this is pretty good?”

Yenika, who was sitting with a sullen expression, refuted.

“Aren’t we getting together too often? just once a week… .”

Leon cut it off.

“I’m saying this as someone with experience, but if we get together once a week, you can never get a good grade from Professor Chizui.”

“… Why is that?”

“Because I have to take a picture of the experiment with a crystal ball. How much you attended, how much effort you put in, he’s a professor who values these things very much.”

Jenika shuts up.

Confusion was clearly evident in that expression, but Leon burst out laughing.

“… why are you laughing Prince?”

“hmm? no… . is it fun? A beautiful woman like Miss Jenika is suffering.”

“… You have strange hobbies.”

“There are many more besides this. how is it? Would you like to listen?”

Yenika clicks her tongue.

‘This person is not normal either… . I should have recognized him from the moment I sat next to Arthur Bayern.’

It was when Yenika looked away.

An unexpected part passed through my mind.

‘But these two… . Have you ever known each other? Why did the prince approach Arthur Bayern?’

Leon Madrid.

A foolish prince known in the empire.

Such eccentricities were well known to Yenika.

He is a nerd who constantly drives alcohol, women, and incidents.

so it was weird

No matter how you look at it, Leon Madrid and Arthur Bayern are not a style to match, so why do they act like they know each other?

As Jenika pondered over this sudden question, Arthur stood up and knocked on the table and declared:

“Now, it may be difficult, but let’s work together and avoid failure! So, first, which paper… .”

* * *

Discussions and agreements were made for quite a long time centered on Arthur.

What subject will you study, and what subject will you divide your quota on?

As soon as those parts were finally sorted out after a long talk, Yenika sighed and stood up.

“what? Do you want to go to Jenika?”

“yes. We’re not doing group assignments from today, are we?”

“It has to be. But you said you had something to say to me?”

Yenika glared at Arthur and twitched her lips.

“I’ll do it later. I don’t want to talk to Confucius right now.”

Arthur nodded without regret.

“Yes, then go.”

Yenika also turns around and walks away.

Leon, who watched with interest, whispered with his eyes shining.

“Looking at it now, you’re a very flirtatious person?”

“… Are you a flirt?”

“Last time she was the daughter of the Leverkusen family, but today is the eldest daughter of the Hazel entrepreneur? Contrary to what it looks like, it must have some skill.”

Arthur clicked his tongue at these words handed over with a sinister smile.

“Prince. I hate it.”

“… huh?”

“How can you only think of women that way? Especially Yenika and I, where do you see that we are lovers?”

Leon’s eyes widened at Arthur’s reprimand.

“Oh, no… . It’s not like that, but it doesn’t look bad, does it?”

“I don’t even notice. Jenika and I are on bad terms.”

“… really?”

“Really.”

Leon scratched his head.

‘Isn’t that a good vibe? That arrogant young lady can’t even move?’

In addition, there was a difference in the expression when looking at himself and Arthur.

Isn’t that an atmosphere with potential for development, even if it’s not like it?

At that time, Arthur, who was next to him, gets up from his seat.

Leon, who was lost in thought, came to his senses and said.

“You want to go?”

“Yes, I also have another class now.”

“okay? Then it only takes 5 minutes, could you give me some time?”

“no. I don’t have one.”

“Aye there is. Don’t pretend to be busy.”

Arthur’s eyes narrowed at Leon’s joke.

“Prince, you seem to be mistaken, but I will tell you clearly.”

“… .”

“We became members of the same team, but I haven’t forgiven the prince yet.”

Leon was perplexed.

“suddenly? We were in harmony until just now, we!”

“That is that and this is this.”

“… .”

“So please refrain from pretending to be friendly. I want to keep my distance from you.”

At Arthur’s words, Leon sighed.

“My heart hurts… . So what about this? Make me a suggestion.”

“A suggestion?”

“okay… . You will probably be interested.”

With these words, Leon rummages through his chest and shows something.

Arthur, who was watching, widened his eyes.

“… This?”

“The senior command.”

“… !”

“You would know, right? The value of this spiritual order?”

At the question, Arthur blinked his wide-eyed eyes.

‘Can you not know? Didn’t Mr. Taken eat this and break the wall?’

Intermediate commandments can be obtained with money.

However, it cannot be obtained even with money from the advanced spiritual group.

Personal connections and connections, even if you mobilize all of them, it is almost impossible to find a high-level spiritual group.

However, Leon took out what was presumed to be the precious high-level command.

‘If you look at the mana you feel… . It’s a really high-level spiritual group, why is this?’

With a murmur, Arthur frowned.

“… It’s suspicious, Prince. Do you have something on your mind?”

“Of course it is.”

“… .”

“But it is not that difficult. It will be fun too.”

Arthur tilted his head.

Inside, the prince raised the corner of his mouth and whispered in a low voice.

“Can Madrid… . I’ll help you kill that man. How is Arthur Bayern?”
