393 Episode XVI: Whoever possesses shall possess the...

- Phew, man... that's going to be pretty tough...

Meer, who had been offered unexpected homework, just stepped out of the student council room and sighed small.

"Heh, you don't have to be so nervous, do you?

As it turns out, Rafina, who was to head up to the girls' dorm together, smiles as cool as usual.

"That being said, it's quite a challenge. I'm not very good at this..."

"It's okay. If it's Mr. Meer. If you tell them what you want to tell them, they'll be fine."

That's what inspires me, Rafina.

But hey..., I almost thought Meer... but I laugh at the pretense.

- At this time of year, I can't believe you're bothering me with this..., this could be a very happy thing for you to inspire me from Lafina.

Back at St. Noel's School, some time later, Meer had gradually begun to be optimistic about the situation.

- I don't know, Ludwig says it's okay. We have also increased our stockpiles well and...... You won't have to worry about me forever.

Speaking of the only anxiety element is whether Cyril can find cold resistant wheat......

- Well, even if that didn't work out, maybe we can figure it out?

Yes. Whatever you say, I have enough stockpiles. There's plenty of it. So, I'm sure you'll be fine! and…….

Hell once caught Meer off guard.

Meer had forgotten. that there are… pitfalls in the changed circumstances.

It came abruptly before Meer.

"Oh...? What's that?"

Meer found it when she was walking down the hallway with Rafina in a colloquial manner.

At the corner of the hallway…, a freshman and a girl were surrounded by several upper classmates.

One of the upper classmates pressed the girl's shoulder. The girl was nagging as she was.

Those around her who curse at her mouth like that.

Meer... Sasa, keep an eye on the student who is bullying you. A hell of a lot of people who commit lawlessness in front of Rafina quickly make sure they're not the noblemen of the Empire, for a moment of relief. Then he walked over to them with exasperation.

"Here, you shouldn't. Do not bully the weak..."

"What? An extra mouth... ah..."

Offensive words stopped on the way.

Because I knew right away that the other person was something I should never turn against.

"See, Her Royal Highness Princess Meer, and Lafina!

"You shouldn't. This school doesn't deserve a freshman bully."

"Yes, no, this is a mistake in itself to be able to attend this noble St. Noel school, being a civilian in our country..."

and Rafina quietly walked over to the student making a futile excuse. There was a very calm and gentle grin on his face.

"Meer, the student chairman doesn't like that, does he? Of course I do too...... No matter what country you are from, you will not tolerate bullying the masses and the weak. Right, Mr. Meer?

"Yeah, yeah, that's right."

To the power of Rafina, who does not say yes or no, for a moment, he was a frightened Meer, but quickly regains his mind.

I nodded in a dignified manner, arm-wrapped, etc.

"Something irrelevant, such as a different country. You can't overlook such outrage."

Meanwhile, Meer sneered at Giroli.

It wasn't even a much more compelling face...... the bullies shook up pathetically.

Anyway, now Meer is the princess of a great power, making it the pinnacle of St. Noel's power. Moreover, behind it is the Virgin Rafina refraining.

If you are going to this St. Noel school, you are the head of a human being who should never be molested.

"Well, fortunately, mistakes just have to be right. You guys should never work disrespectfully on her again. A nobleman would be noble and should live proudly. Don't do ugly things like abuse the weak. With that power, rather, we should help the weak."

Then, hum..., nod...,

"Right. If you are companions to this child, protect her."

"... Huh?

"I won't allow this kid to have anything to do with you guys if he finds out he's being bullied in the future. It's useless to try to do it in the shadows, not to look sweetly at my information network."

Meer, whoops, made a prank, smiled and showed in imitation of Rafina.

Then... the bullies screamed and fled the scene.

- Hmm..., I see. So smiles can sometimes be used to threaten you too......

And so on, Meer helped up the girl with the buttocks.

"Are you okay?

"Oh, oh, uh, thank you. Wow, wow, I don't know..."

To the mundane and hasty girl, Meer grinned, tickling.

"Nothing, I did what was natural."

Well, in front of Rafina, I could never fail to help..., etc. It was about the moment I thought.

On the pretend, an unpleasant feeling ran on Meer's spine......

That's some kind of realization. Or, just a thought.

Meer thought...

What if there is going to be a famine, but then, just like now, they ask for help......

In the previous timeline, there was no need to worry about that. Because the empire was full only of things about its own people.

But...... not now.

The Empire has enough stockpiles.

That's why Meer is hoarding extra food if we're just going to spend a year this year...

That's because Meer knows that famine won't end in a year this year, it's going to be massive...

But the others... don't know. I don't know if I might think of it as just a problem this year...... How do they see an empire that has built up reserves that can withstand years of famine......

No, to say more, what would it look like to Rafina or Zion?

I'm telling Theon, and I'm going to tell Rafina. But at the moment, that's only a prediction. For that anticipation... or for the anxiety of the future, it is like untying the hands of those who have asked for help... when they have done such things…, what will happen….

And there was another miscalculation.

By doing the student chairman, Meer had unknowingly made connections with people from various countries...... As I work for the Student Council, I have become more familiar with my face, and there are a few of them who can be called friends.

So... suppose someone in that facial acquaintance asked me for help... and if I had the power to help...?

- If other countries were like "empires then”... can I not undo my stockpiles...?

Meer's troubles were as serious as her thoughts.

Prepared for several years of famine, but thus emerged, a new crisis…. That was unexpected for Meer, who was completely alarmed.

It takes, and Meer moves out again. Towards an admission ceremony greeting......
