I Became a Genius Commander at the Academy - Chapter 67

EP.67

In the original novel, the crown prince is slowly being pushed aside by the second prince, whom the main character is serving by now, and is considering an alliance with the fifth prince.

Considering that at this time, the protagonist persuades Laura, who has already become his subordinate, to side with the second prince, and later even defects Count Benner, thereby contributing decisively to putting an end to the crown prince’s faction…

With my intervention, this is the plot of this novel, Reich. The history of the empire seems to be moving in a strange way.

Since I have decided to stand on the crown prince’s side, wouldn’t it be best to make the history of the empire as favorable to the crown prince as possible?

To add a little more to this, it would be a good idea to diminish the 5th Prince’s impression even a little more when rejecting the offer.

That way, I will be able to repay, even a little, to His Highness the Fifth Prince, who tried to screw me over, whether intentionally or not.

“Colonel Jaeger Is it so much fun to kill bugs by stepping on them? “You have a smile on your face.”

At those words, I came to my senses and apologized to the crown prince.

“I’m sorry.”

After I apologized, the Crown Prince must have realized my intention, or he immediately let me know that there was an idiot who tried to recruit me, Peter Jaeger, by doing something stupid during the ball.

I don’t know if it makes me feel good to show loyalty by showing that I’m not even embarrassed because I never thought about betrayal.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also spoke with a smile similar to mine.

“Are you drunk, Colonel Jaeger? My face turned red. “He was still young and it was his first time attending a banquet, so he seemed excited and drank quickly.”

From the Rhineland days to the Czechoslovakian front, in order to build good relationships with officers, he did not exaggerate and only drank two liters of beer when he drank a lot.

There is no way I would get drunk from a few glasses of wine served at a banquet hall.

So, what he meant was that you should go home and rest without doing anything that would get caught by other forces anymore.

“I guess I ran in a hurry because I was young and energetic. “If you will allow me, I would like to excuse you first, Your Highness.”

After saying that, he had been walking fine until just now, but in order to pretend to be drunk, he asked Laura to call a servant.

At this level, even if his face is fine, he will look like a drunk nobleman who was so excited at his first banquet that he drank too much.

At least, at a banquet, there is no problem with being drunk and being forced to leave first, as it just ends up being a funny rumor, other than making excuses for making a mistake or insulting someone else.

“Colonel, are you okay? “If His Majesty the Crown Prince said she was drunk, it would seem like she was very

drunk…” I was really grateful for her concern for me, but I was really fine.

I spoke in a whisper so low that only Laura, who was almost right next to me, could hear.

“Didn’t His Highness the 5th Prince try to recruit me at the banquet hall just now? So, so as not to cause any more trouble, His Highness the Crown Prince told us to pretend to be drunk and leave. “I’m fine, don’t worry.”

When Laura heard those words, she nodded as if relieved, and we were able to safely attend the ball.

To be exact, I safely dismissed the invitations from other nobles to transfer to another faction, and with Laura’s help, I even completely eliminated the tail-lashings of the ladies, so I guess I can say I did a good job at this level.

However, one problem remained: I had to receive an invitation from the damn 5th Prince and go see it in person.

Still, I responded as well as I could to his advice, which was likely to be misunderstood by the crown prince.

You can think like that and go back.

Now… then how should I reject His Highness the 5th Prince’s offer?

**

Saturday lunch, six days after the prom.

This time last week was a time to organize the lecture content and enjoy some leisure time.

His Highness the 5th Prince called me, so today I am dressed up and going to the mansion where the Prince lives.

Damn it, I was thinking of coming to the center for the first time in a while and enjoying some free time, but I called for no reason.

I suppressed the irritation in my heart and arrived at the mansion west of Reichburg, where an old butler welcomed me.

“Are you Baron Peter Yeager? I am Gilliam Wagon, the butler who serves His Highness the Fifth Prince. “Your Majesty is going out for a while and asked you to wait a little.”

“Let’s do that. “Where can I wait?”

“Please wait in the living room inside the mansion. “It will probably take about two hours, so shall we prepare a meal first?”

There is no way that someone as high as the 5th Prince would poison me to kill me, and now I am not a target to be killed, but someone who must be captured.

So there is no way they would attempt assassination by poisoning or anything like that.

Also, no matter how opposing the faction, if you refuse favors offered by the royal family, you will get a bad reputation for being too arrogant.

It couldn’t have been done in the first place.

“Later, I will have to thank you personally for the favor you have shown me.”

“Your Majesty told us to pay special attention, so we followed his orders and prepared the best meal possible.”

Guided by the butler, I entered the living room of the mansion and found it to be very luxuriously decorated.

Although it was not as good as what was seen in the banquet hall, there was a large chandelier hanging from the ceiling, portraits of the Fifth Prince, his parents, and family on the walls, and a desk with beautiful landscape paintings, probably made of marble, giving off a very dignified and luxurious feel.

Also, the butler had already prepared the food to be served just in time for my arrival.

There were so many different types of food, including soup, steak, bread, roast beef, and wine, that I couldn’t possibly eat it by myself.

Usually, when I serve a noble person, preparing this much food symbolizes how great my favor is for you.

5 The prince must want to recruit me somehow.

“This is a meal filled with the thoughts of His Majesty the 5th Prince, Lieutenant Colonel Jaeger.”

“Your Majesty’s favor is so great that I feel it is undeserved. “I’ll make sure you eat well.”

As I was about to start eating and put the knife to the steak, the butler next to me waved a silver bell.

Then, a woman came in wearing a maid uniform, or rather, a skirt that was much shorter than a typical maid outfit, exposing all of her thighs and revealing her cleavage.

White skin and black eyes. Although not doll-like, the appearance would attract the attention of many people if they met one while walking on the street.

Fuck, this doesn’t feel right.

The deacon who was standing next to me smiled at her and said,

“This girl is called Marie and she just turned 20. I brought you here because I was worried that you would be a bit bored until His Majesty the Prince came after eating. “Then I’ll just leave.”

They say bad premonitions are always right, but what does it mean to say that you brought her here because you were worried she might be boring?

Just by looking at her, you can see that she is a girl who will serve you sexually.

If I touch him again, the 5th prince will laugh and say something like this, right?

‘I’m glad you like it. ‘Let me give my special gift to the hero of the empire.’

The plan is to then use that girl to dig up my personal information one by one.

Meanwhile, a girl called Marie tried to serve me with clumsy movements in front of me.

“I like to cook my meals with my own hands. Also, I wanted to get some sleep because I stayed up all night yesterday preparing for a lecture at the Staff College. “I’ll just eat and then get some sleep.”

At those words, the girl named Marie began to show signs of anxiety over not being able to fulfill her mission.

If I were to recklessly reject this girl, the 5th Prince might catch me…

“It is truly an honor to be able to enjoy such luxury thanks to His Highness, but I cannot risk ruining myself.”

Then I handed 5 silver coins to the naked maid in front of me and said,

“This is my personal token of gratitude to you. “If I tell your Majesty this, he will understand.”

“Thank you, Baron.”

Now, this girl will later be able to tell the prince that I refused because I was tired from staying up the night before, and as proof of this, she will report that she gave a large sum of money, as much as 5 silver, to herself, a maid.

Then, since I have expressed my gratitude to the 5th Prince for his favor, there is seemingly no reason for him to find fault or be offended.

So I enjoyed the sumptuous meal prepared before my eyes and sat down on the sofa to really fall asleep until the prince called.

Then, after some time, I heard the sound of a bell ringing in my ears.

“I guess you were very tired. His Royal Highness has arrived. Please follow me. “I will guide you directly to His Majesty’s office.”
