Chapter 2 - Chapter 2 A confusing woman

After the training is over, we compile the materials in the instructor's room.

A single room with chairs and a table, perfect for when you have guests.

This alone tells you that you're being treated well.

This is the current status data for each student.

What weapons they use, their habits, their movements, everything I notice.

Let me just say, what does it mean that 29 out of 30 people are women?

(TL/N: what? HOW!?)

The only male character is the main character, Roy Dragor, the hero's son.

He is about 170cm tall, slim but well-trained, has a kind face and a caring personality.

From what I saw today, the movement was top notch.

It was beautiful, "untainted" knightly swordsmanship.

If the story goes as planned, will he build a harem?

...Well, as an instructor, all I have to do is make sure none of the students die.

A game is a game, and I'm in charge here. There's no rule that says Reid can't be involved in the main story.

I'd say I'm having fun...

*Knock, knock

I hear two gentle knocks on the door and answer.

"please"

"Excuse me for interrupting."

"It's in the middle of nowhere, but please sit there."

Miss Erika opened the door and gave a gentle smile and a slight bow.

Is it a given that her breasts will shake at that moment? Or is it intentional?

I gesture to the chair at the table and sit across from him.

No, it's scary to think that a 16-year-old can be this beautiful.

As expected, she's the character who seduces Roy right from the beginning.

I confirm that Miss Erika has sat down in the seat opposite me.

"So, what's the story?"

"From now on, could you please treat me with preferential treatment until graduation?"

"...Don't say that so bluntly."

I couldn't help but smile wryly when Erika said that casually with a smile.

Miss Erika continued speaking normally, still smiling.

"Of course I'm not saying it's free."

"Let me hear it."

"You inherited the inn and bar, Suzuya, from your parents. You don't want to shut it down, do you?"

"That's right."

"Your current worries are ingredients and seasonings. Let's provide them at low prices."

"...Hmm."

"The Dwaf Company is in trouble, isn't it?"

This was something that Instructor Reid wanted to protect even if it meant giving up his noble title, which was a reward for the war.

It was Suzuya, an inn and bar run by his father.

Currently, my mother-in-law is protecting her, but recently the president of the Dwaf Trading Company... no, his stupid son has started to bother my mother-in-law.

The Dwaf Trading Company is the number one in the capital, and if you want to get ingredients or seasonings, you have to go through them.

There is a way to not let it through, but in the end, the store will end up being pressured by the Dwaf Company later on.

Currently, he obtains ingredients and seasonings from the Dwaf Company.

But the price is going up.

Moreover, it's only Suzuya.

At one point, my mother-in-law was trying to give her body to her stupid son, so I used drastic measures to stop her.

"It's a problem."

"Isn't that right? And it seems like the bar is 'noisy', so you could lend the Deus family your power?"

"...Hmm? You looked up 'noisy', right?"

Miss Erika's expression showed a hint of caution for the first time in response to my question.

It's certainly noisy, but... I see, you're not here to investigate as a customer.

Even if I had my subordinates investigate, I think it would be a bit sloppy...

No, maybe that's why.

Will this sloppiness lead to ruin?

Since Miss Erika was on guard, I started talking with a wry smile.

"The 'noisy' part is fine without your help, but I'd like you to help me with the procurement. However, what exactly does the condition of preferential treatment for Miss Erika until she graduates mean?"

"...That's right, I would like you to treat my grades, tests, and everything else favorably."

"I wouldn't say it's advantageous."

Miss Erika's smile faded and she looked at me suspiciously.

Her breasts sway when she crosses her arms.

Hey, aren't you here to negotiate?

Is it okay to change your expression so often?

It's so messy that I can't help but smile wryly.

"I'm not asking for my score to go from 0 to 100. I'm certainly aware that I'm doing something dirty, but I do have my own principles."

"Preferential treatment...huh. I don't think Miss Erika needs it, but that wouldn't be a good way to negotiate. In that case, I'll teach you some skills."

"...Are you making fun of me? Skills are innate, and only the chosen ones in the kingdom can acquire them later..."

"..."

I smiled in amusement at her response, and watched as Miss Erika spoke with a grim expression.

But then she stopped talking, looked me straight in the eye, and said,

"...You know, don't you?"

"Let's continue this at the bar, I don't want to do it at the academy. Also, it would be best to retrain the subordinates who spied. Information is life, isn't it?"

"Yeah, that's true..."

"You'll bring your entourage, okay? Leave the carriage there, okay?"

"I know."

Miss Erika stood up in dissatisfaction, bowed and left the room.

I sighed and went to my desk to organize the remaining documents.

I also had to go home early for some business.

Above all, I would like to ask for Miss Erika's help.

She wanted preferential treatment, but if you look at what happened up until graduation, I was the one given preferential treatment.

Well, it's hard to understand.

She is a kind woman.

As expected from the eldest daughter of an Earl.
