MIRACULOUSLY ESCAPING SLACKERLIFE

XL

 Cale and the others returned to the Academy after the situation had calmed down. Wow. While the knights conducted their investigations, the academy did everything it could to maintain its stability. Few board members had any connection to Sten or narcotics. So it was complete chaos both inside and outside.

Taylor and his siblings are now officially under Deruth's guardianship. Alver's coronation and coming-of-age ceremony will take place two months after the trimester. Antonio, who was left behind the scenes, was sulking because he could not help at all. Rosalyn simply smiled at them; he knows she collaborated with Ron behind the scenes. While Valentino? He was shocked that the Mogoru Empire had been distributing these kinds of things.

Valentino made contact with Prince Adin, whom Cale regards as the Imperial Prince. Valentino was close to him, but it appears that even the Imperial Prince was ignoring his friend's call. Valentino was so suspicious of these movements that he sent a missive back to the Caro Kingdom to inquire about the events that might have an impact on the Empire.

Anger, bewilderment. Valentino's expression contains only these two emotions. The nobles of the Empire are the ones who distribute narcotics in the Western Kingdom... and who Valentino believes are affiliated with Prince Adin's factions.

That is why, if you do not know anything about someone, you should not trust them completely..

In Cale's case, he is known the people around him for a long time, so he knows he can rely on them. He felt sorry for the Prince because the Imperial Prince was a long-time and close friend of his.

However, returning to the academy, there is one thing that Cale Henituse despises the most - MORNING ASSEMBLIES!

Who the fuck made this nonsense?! Morning assemblies begin at six of the clock in the morning! He would not have gone if Alver had not miraculously changed his clothes and carried him into the grand hall!

"If he does not stop talking, I am going to trash around," he muttered angrily to the speaker, who was sweating beads from his curses. He would be talking nonsense for a long time, and Cale despised it the most. Antonio simply shook his head, staring at the poor speaker and Cale, both of whose faces contorted in annoyance.

Taylor hums quietly but loudly enough for their group to hear, "You look like a red tomato."

Cale frowned at Stan, who was currently making fun of him.

"Should I trash around?" Alver asks.

"No... just act properly... let the old man do his job, okay?"

He snorted. He had a visible frown on his brow. Because he had been standing for so long, his feet were aching. He wanted his sleep back and to do nothing.

"This is why ceremonies are annoying... it is long and boring... the usual thank you and recognition with flowery words when saying it directly is the most direct way." Annoyed.

Alver reasoned, "I am going to keep my ceremony brief but grand." He had the feeling that if his ceremony went on for too long, Cale would leave. He can not have his sworn brother abandon him, can he?

Cale's patience is tested by the long-winded speech and ceremony. He wished he could snap right now and put an end to this nonsense.

"to bring this ceremony to a close..." FINALLY! Cale could not keep it together any longer. If the old man persisted, he would absolutely destroy everything.

"As voted by the Board of Directors, the Alaric Council (Government) will be formed, along with the Aegis (disciplinary) Committee, Anselm (legislative) Congress, and Student Justitia (tribunal). Seven students will be chosen by the Board per committee as pivot members until laws are formulated by the committee. Additionally, as agreed upon by the Board, the student with the highest merit will become an honorary member of the Board of Directors along with the Chairman of Alaric."
