Chapter 108

‘It was said that it was tailored to the situation of the talent as much as possible… ‘

At that time, Lemnas turned around and walked briskly to somewhere.

Annie blinked in surprise.

‘No way… Are you coming to me?”

That prediction was not wrong. He quickly stood in front of Annie and stretched out his arm.

And a relaxed smile.

“It’s nice to meet you, Lady Dsev.”

“Oh, yes. Hello.”

Annie got her body up and accepted the handshake he had asked for. Lord Lemnas, who still smiles, had a strange look, even though he was younger than her.

Annie nodded her head.

‘After all, successful people are different no matter what.’

Only now the Lords who recognized Annie began to talk.

“What? Isn’t that Lady Dsev? Why is she here?”

“She must have come to do something strange again. Otherwise, would she be here at this hour?”

“Pfftt. The travel book about to be published didn’t even start properly.”

It was a public fact in the Empire that Annie was fluent in seven languages. The lords frankly tried to keep their superior competitors in check. They had put their mind on her all the time, and she was a little nervous.

Lord Lemnas spoke very sternly.

“I heard you’re busy writing travel books. What are you up to here?”

Annie, who was about to answer, bit her lips tightly.

‘Look at this?’

The young man in front of her had a dazzling smile on his face, but she felt it.

Wasn’t he strangely sarcastic? Now that she saw it, it was a complete pretense.

“I’m here to take an exam. Lord Lemnas is also amazing. You must be busy with Yulfbe exchanges and participating in this recruitment. Will it be difficult to do both properly, isn’t it?”

She was good at one thing. It was this expression.

When he heard about it, a difference appeared in Lemnas’ eyes, but he burst into a strange laugh, ‘hoho.’’

At this, Annie also put on a shameless smile that scratched the inside of a person.

‘Who are you picking a fight with?’

She also vowed to give him a shot if he turned around and tried to lower someone. But there were not one or two enemies.

The surrounding lords were openly complaining and chattering with displeasure.

“A woman will take over the imperial seat? She’s gone crazy.”

“Anyway, it’s a shame for the Dsev family. How shameful David must be.”

It’s unpleasant to insult her, but they’re even insulting her family. Annie clenched her fists until her nails turned white.

‘You have to be patient. If you’re angry, it’s my loss.’

Her best revenge was to pass.

If she made a fuss here, it’s at her own expense.

Then, someone came in with applause.

“Come on, everyone, please stay quiet.”

It was Fizz, surprisingly, who stopped the bullying. When he suddenly appeared and warned them with a stern voice, they all turned into mutes.

No matter how ruthless he was, he was the emperor’s aide. Even after that, Fizz looked around with a sharp expression that was not usually seen.

The lords didn’t say anything offensive anymore. Thanks to this, Annie was able to focus on her studies again.

Fizz walked around slowly, like a supervisor.

Clack.

Suddenly, something fell on the parchment.

A white note.

“…What else is this?”

As she raised her head, she saw Fizz standing nearby with his arms crossed, with a stiff expression on his face.

After hesitating for a moment, Annie carefully opened the note.

Do your best!!!!!

‘…What?’

Maybe it’s a curse note. Or was it an ironic method? Looking at her suspiciously, Fizz suddenly clenched his fists.

Annie laughed awkwardly at the encouragement that was only at herself.

Thank you.

Be sure to get in!!!

Annie was a little puzzled at the situation where his intentions were unknown. But, unlike before, in Fizz’s eyes towards her, he didn’t have any hostility and was full of sincerity.

The wind eases her tension a little.

‘Because he’s an odd person anyway.’

Annie shrugged her shoulders and looked again intently at the parchment.

***

The warm morning sunlight and the sound of birdsong.

The emperor’s office was full of peace.

Except for Doher’s heart.

‘Since Fizz has changed his mind, he must be doing well…’

Hmm. Doher coughed and stared at Ejed.

He had large glasses on his face, guarding his office desk.

He was probably worried about Annie, but he didn’t say much.

Doher had been hesitating for a long time.

‘Well…. Shall I ask one more time?’

She was a woman favored by the emperor, so wouldn’t it be right for her to be accepted into the Ministry of Foreign Affairs somehow?

Of course, she deserves to pass, but she shouldn’t have been rejected for any other reason.

He’s probably not going to be rude now, but he was asking just in case.

“Excuse me… Your Majesty. Shall I give some words to the Imperial Ministry of Foreign Affairs about Lady Dsev? If it’s just for fairness…”

“No.”

With a firm answer, Ejed took off his glasses. Turning his head, he looked out the window.

Thinking that Annie was out there somewhere, he smiled.

‘I want to see you….’

Even now, it was hard to resist the desire to run right away and give support. But not today.

Annie must be working harder than anyone else in the distance, where the test was being held.

He didn’t want to disturb her because Annie and her dreams were more precious than his own feelings.

“Miss Annie will definitely pass.”
