How the Psionic Prince Overcomes Reversal and Obsession

29 – True Educator Regid (1)

Feria stared at her sister, who was still struggling, with mixed eyes.

‘Anyway, since Lyria has suffered from illness for a long time, it must be difficult for her to catch up with the other cadets in a short period of time.’

no. Maybe the gap won’t close forever.

‘It’s fine. How can I recover like this and become even healthier in the future?’

Compared to the past where I had no choice but to watch Lilia sitting helplessly on the bed, this moment is just blissful.

‘Still, wouldn’t I be bullied for falling behind at the academy?’

Unnie’s heart is something that, as a family, cannot be left alone.

As an older sister, Peria decided to help her younger sister adapt to the academy as quickly as possible.

A sense of duty springs up in her heart that resembles happiness.

‘It’s still impossible to move vigorously.’

For now, it would be a good idea to train each individual separately while getting used to the sword little by little.

Feria stood in front of Lyria holding a wooden sword and took a stance.

Her younger sister Lilia stared at her older sister Feria holding a wooden sword with sparkling eyes.

“Wow… My sister’s posture is cool… !”

For Lilia, who was weak in body, her older sister, who was an excellent swordsman enough to become an imperial knight, was always an object of admiration.

Peria smiled lightly at her sister’s praise and raised her wooden sword.

“Come on, Lyria. Let’s watch her movements carefully and try to copy her little by little. Never overdo it, and start by getting acquainted with the sword.”

“yes! I will work hard!”

Lyria clenched her small fists and shouted with enthusiasm.

Feria slowly lowered the wooden sword into the air so that Lyria could see it clearly.

“Now, follow me slowly.”

“Eh, like this… ?”

Lillia followed her sister and lowered the wooden sword.

Shaak… .

Feria trembled and praised such a Lilia.

“Wow! You’re doing well for the first time! Awesome, Lyria!”

“lol… .”

“Okay, then try this again.”

Observing Feria’s movements, Lilia swung her wooden sword.

Shaak… .

“Clap clap clap! Very well done, Lyria! Then this too!”

“lol… .”

Observing Feria’s movements, Lilia swung her wooden sword.

Shaak… .

“Wow! Our Lyria is so good! Where is this too!”

Observing Feria’s movements, Lilia swung her wooden sword.

Shaak… .

“Really good… all… ? this, this too.”

Observing Feria’s movements, Lilia swung her wooden sword.

Shaak… .

“… … .”

Silence fell for a moment.

Lyria tilted her head and looked at Peria.

“sister?”

“… … Why is this happening?”

“I could just do it… .”

Feria opened her eyes wide and looked Lilia up and down.

A big smile appeared on the older sister’s face when she discovered a talent she hadn’t known about.

“Wow, great! wait a minute! I’ll get some scarecrows from the warehouse! Wait a minute, Lilia!”

Cudangtang… !

Feria started rummaging through the warehouse in the corner of the yard with an excited face.

“lol… .”

Lilia laughed happily at her sister’s praise.

“… … .”

Suddenly, she smiles slowly.

For some reason, Lilia stared at her sister’s back with a guilty face.

A hand of Lilia’s lower belly… It reached the vicinity where the Mana Hall was located.

There, as evidence of the grace Prince Regid bestowed on her, the pattern of the Sky Tower was engraved on her skin.

Seruk.

Lyria’s hand carefully checked the pattern engraved on the mana hole through her clothes.

Every time I stroke the pattern of the sky tower like this, the scene comes back vividly in my head.

‘ah… .’

Those sweet moments when I was held in his arms and trembled in pain.

She was trembling at the fearful and unfamiliar feeling mixed with pain.

He touches the red lozenge-shaped token of the Sky Tower engraved on his lower belly softly and delicately, as if touching or rolling.

‘sister… Sorry… .’

While staring at the back of her beloved older sister, Feria, Lilia repeatedly apologized in her mind.

Even though I know her sister’s feelings for him… .

Even though I feel sorry for myself and feel guilty… .

Even so, Lilia couldn’t stop stroking the traces of him left on her lower belly over and over again every night under the covers of the bed.

‘I’m sorry, sister… . I’m so sorry… still… Still me… .’

The painful and sweet traces of grace He carved directly into Lyria’s body.

Startle!!

Suddenly, with a belated look on her face, Lyria hurriedly removed her hand from the symbol of the Sky Tower located on her lower stomach.

‘This can’t be like this… ! While knowing her heart!’

Lillia struggled with a sense of shame and repeatedly hit her head with her small fist.

‘Even though I decided to cheer… I forgot again… . I-I’m such a fool!’

No matter how many times I promise myself lately, I keep unconsciously lowering my stomach… I couldn’t stop checking the sky tower token above the mana hole.

‘I think I’ve gotten a little weird lately… . uh, what to do… ?’

Prince Regid’s academy policy aroused much interest and response across the continent.

Other countries also followed the policies of the Kazidum Empire belatedly, but… … .

However, it was clear to anyone who could see that he was one step behind.

In particular, the announcement that the Hidden District, which became a hot topic recently, will be used as an academy-only training ground was decisive.

A vision that some, if not all, of the hidden areas that will be added in the future will be secured for the cadets of the academy.

That was enough to enthuse the young talents of the continent who received the Sky Tower badge.

As a result… .

The number of applicants for Kazidum Academy far exceeded our initial expectations.

Regid and the upper echelons of the Empire tried to accommodate the cadets as much as possible, but they also had to consider realistic limits.

In the end, the Imperial side announced that they would select cadets through an entrance exam.

After a while, countless talents who had awakened the Sky Tower certificate began to flock to Kazidum Academy to take the entrance exam.

* * *

I was touring the academy where the entrance exam was to be held today with Feria, the escort knight.

‘It took me a while to prepare for this and that, but I was finally able to come this far.’

I had to walk towards the goal as planned step by step.

Then, suddenly, I looked at the test takers walking around the academy site with regretful eyes.

“There are more people gathered than I thought. I wish I could have them all, but I have no choice but to consider realistic restrictions… It’s too bad… .”

Peria comforted me like that.

“His Highness Regid did his best as much as he could. He even gave up his own body, so who would dare to blame Your Highness?”

Thanking her heart, she patted me on the shoulder and smiled.

Not too long ago, I had given an invitation to her sister Lilia.

Since I visited her house at that time, it feels like the distance to Feria has gotten a little closer.

of course… It might just be my own misunderstanding, though.

“thanks. Peria. Your words give me great strength.”

“Oh, no… .”

Feria flinched at the touch on her shoulder and lowered her head.

Seeing that, I wanted to regret it belatedly.

‘… … Did I pretend to be too friendly?’

but.

It would be embarrassing for a subordinate to suddenly come to his boss pretending to be friendly.

Besides, since she was blessed by me, she couldn’t bear to show any signs of dislike, and she would have no choice but to endure it.

‘This is also a kind of power abuse.’

I made up my mind to be a little more careful about the feeling of distance from Peria.

It’s good to be friendly and gain loyalty, but if you approach too much, you can end up hating them… Load management is a real headache.

On the other hand, the academy site was crowded with test takers coming and going from one test site to another.

Soo-gun-go… .

“Prince… ? Are you really the prince?”

“Wow… . I’m seeing the real thing for the first time… .”

“It’s completely different from the portraits I’ve seen in newspapers… !”

“gulp… .”

They kept their distance from me and whispered among themselves at a distance.

‘It feels like entering a cage in a zoo.’

I’ll be going to the academy more often, so the cadets will gradually get used to me.

It was also a problem that was naturally resolved over time anyway.

“yes… ?”

At that moment, my gaze suddenly turned to the shaded area of the building.

‘That’s… .’

I walked towards it with a hardened face.

A frowning sight soon appeared before my eyes.

Shade behind the building.

A few male test takers were huddled against the wall, surrounded by a gang of females.

“You guys keep doing this? After the exam, let’s relieve stress and play for a bit, right?”

“I-over there… Please send… .”

… … What is this?

I closed my eyes and slowly rubbed my forehead with my trembling fingers.

‘In this sacred learning ground that I have created… .’

What the hell kind of nonsense is that?
