429Anger Dmitry Conflict (5)
In fact, Lauren Dmitry's strategy has been in progress for a long time..
It was several months ago.
The problem started with a professor..
Professor Bradley, who belonged to the same Cairo Royal Academy as Henry Albert and was in charge of educating students, looked suspiciously one day..
“Professor Henry. I have a question: Do you really know Roman Dmitry? No, if you listen to the story of the Southern Front, it seems like you played a key role, but you haven't had a single direct interaction while you were here at the Royal Academy. I'm not denying everything the professor experienced, but I'm just saying this because I think he was one of the people who were there..”
Bradley was a typical nobleman.
For a man who thought of himself as noble, the sight of Henry Albert, who was gaining success based on his experience on the Southern Front, was not very pleasing..
If you think about it, there were actually a lot of questionable things..
If his role was so important that he was directly in charge of communication with the Cairo royal family, wouldn't it be right to continue to interact with the Dmitry family even after the war?.
Once I thought it was suspicious, there were only one or two suspicious things..
raise one question.
The light went down on fire.
Henry Albert couldn't ignore a situation where someone doubted him..
‘What if Professor Bradley reveals my true origins? The faster you get to this point, the faster you fall..’
Professor Bradley says.
It wasn't a wrong point.
In reality, Henry Albert was nothing more than a nothing person, and if this were to be asked of the Dmitry family, his authority as a professor would fall to the ground in an instant..
In fact, I wasn't lying all this time..
I just exaggerated it a little based on my own experience, but isn't it true that I was on the southern front?.
But regardless of those issues, it was clear that it would be a problem if the truth were revealed..
I rolled my head.
How can we overcome this crisis?.
What should I do to shake off people's doubts and maintain this position?.
My worries deepened..
Then eventually.
came to one conclusion.
‘The reason why Professor Bradley was suspicious of me came from the fact that I had passed the life-or-death crisis with Dmitri and had no interaction with them. If they confirmed that I am directly related to the Dmitry family, which is currently popular, they wouldn't bother to mess with me, no matter what the truth is..’
At that time, Dmitry was not in the position of the empire..
Although the situation on the continent was still in a state of confusion, it was an undeniable fact that, as Henry Albert thought, Dmitry was leading the new landscape..
In particular, Dmitry's influence in Cairo was absolute..
Since King Cairo actively follows Dmitry, he needed this opportunity to prove it..
‘The method is simple. You just need to make your relationship with Dmitry take root in the life of this man, Henry Albert, rather than simply ending it as a fleeting connection on the southern front..’
The conclusion is right.
It was a relationship between in-laws through marriage..
There was no surer way than that, which no one dared to question..

next day.
Henry Albert's class was held.
Seeing the students arriving one after another, Henry Albert hid his sinister intentions..
‘You must never reveal my intentions. If you push for an arranged marriage in the name of the Albert family, it is certain that you will be rejected, considering the current status of the Dmitry family. There is no other way for Albert and Dmitry to unite than to pursue a natural meeting. Only if a man and a woman strongly assert their feelings for each other will they seriously consider union with the Albert family, regardless of practical benefits..’
With rude language.
The grade didn't match.
Unlike the Albert family, which is going downhill even in Cairo, isn't Dmitry a family that powerful people from all over the world will rush to if he announces his intention to marry?.
It was a really stupid move to push for an arranged marriage..
Knowing his position, Henry Albert approached the problem in an unusual way..
All students were seated.
Henry Albert, who took a quick look at Lauren Dmitri's appearance, continued the class with his usual expression on his face..
“We will start the class from now on..”
topic of class.
It was the quality of a hero.
As articles analyzing Roman Dmitry became popular, classes were held on topics related to him..
“The existence of a hero is not simply born under special circumstances. Although Roman Dmitry distinguished himself as a hero in the war on the Southern Front that no one expected, the real starting point is to look at his life before that. The Blood Fang incident. When people asked whether it was necessary to attack them and take the damage, Roman Dmitry boldly attacked their base and defeated them once and for all. Same situation, same problem, but different response. That's what a hero is…….”
It was safe to say that the class was from the point of view of omniscient Roman Dmitri..
It covers the life he lived and actively brings out elements that students may find interesting..
Suddenly.
Class has reached its end.
Henry Albert, who had completed all the lessons he had prepared, naturally put his plan into action..
“This concludes today's class. There are additional group assignments. Based on what we learned in today's class, you can research historical figures who lived heroic lives, such as Roman Dmitry. It's okay if it's someone everyone knows, or it doesn't have to be someone everyone knows. Then, I will announce each group. Group A… … Lauren Dmitri and Emma Iris are in Group F. Thank you all for your hard work.”
Grinning, smiling.
It was a very natural flow..
Emma Iris included in Group F along with Lauren Dmitri.
She was Henry Albert's cousin and his beloved younger sister whom he always cherished..

Henry Albert and Lauren Dmitry.
The two were quite close friends..
Henry Albert listened to Lauren Dmitri's concerns, and they maintained a relationship to the point where they often met outside of class..
So it wasn't that strange for the two of them to have a meal together..
At that time, Lauren Dmitry showed good results at the academy, so we decided to have dinner to celebrate..
“Thank you every time. Thanks to the professor, I think he was able to get good grades..”
“okay? If you think about it that way, it makes me really happy, hahaha.”
Laughed cheerfully.
The fact that Lauren Dmitri thought of him as special made Henry Albert laugh heartily..
leave some kind of plan.
Lauren Dmitry was such a pretty child..
Because he has good values and good behavior, he would have seriously considered an arranged marriage even if he were not the third son of the Dmitry family..
However, the value of the name Dmitry held me back..
Because it was a mountain that the Albert family could not dare to climb, it could not be approached by ordinary means..
“I am proud of the quality of the food at the restaurant we are going to now. It's a place that has recently gained quite a reputation for its delicious food in Cairo, so order whatever you want to eat. I'm capable of that..”
There was no sight of the class being conducted..
Public and private affairs were completely different..
Still, as a professor, I tried to look as serious as possible, but even in private, I did not maintain the same attitude as in class..
In fact, the image I am showing now is more like myself..
Henry Albert was a somewhat immature and reckless person, but as time passed, he learned how to live publicly..
yet.
arrived at the restaurant.
I went to my reserved seat and ordered the chef's special course based on the waiter's recommendation..
And while we were having a light conversation, a woman passing by opened her eyes and said,.
“Oh my, Henry?!”
“Elena?”
It's like we met by chance.
It was a manipulated meeting from beginning to end..
Elena, the daughter of Henry Albert's maternal uncle, Viscount Vale, smiled and made a planned comment..
“……this person is?”
“Ah, the disciple I teach. Lauren Dmitri is the third son of the Dmitri family you know. And this is Elena Frank. It has the same name as the Frankish kingdom, but it's my uncle's family..”
A brief self-introduction at first.
And natural joint stone.
Elena Frank and Lauren Dmitri had a pleasant meal while receiving the happy gaze of Henry Albert..
* * *
Henry Albert's plan was a long game.
We did not reveal our intentions hastily, and each time we created an opportunity to introduce different women in a new environment..
it was intentional.
Even Henry Albert didn't really know Lauren Dmitri's tastes, so he threw in countless arguments thinking that he might get caught at least once..
But still no results.
As Rodwell Dmitry emerged as the center of attention, even Henry Albert began to feel uneasy..
for that reason.
Abused the professor's authority.
I brought Lauren Dmitry in for a personal consultation and asked if she had any concerns recently..
‘It's a natural flow. A professor says he will find out what his student is worried about, but who would think it strange??’
The intention was spot on..
Lauren Dmitri seemed a little hesitant, then sighed and said what she had been thinking about..
“……Huh. Actually, I'm worried because a lot of people are intentionally approaching me these days. I understand that Dmitry's situation is changing and he is interested in me, but I feel a little uncomfortable because it is clearly for the purpose of an arranged marriage..”
Henry Albert's eyes changed.
How dare there be people who dare to look at Lauren Dmitry other than yourself?.
Henry Albert said in as calm a tone as possible..
“Lauren. As you said, Dmitry has become an empire, and interest in you is bound to grow day by day. That has become a reality that Lauren Dmitri has to accept on a daily basis. What I want to tell you is that you don't need to be swayed by their intentions. If there is someone you really like among those who have approached you, you may need to open your heart, but if not, you have the right and power to draw the line. I'm against accepting everything even if I never, absolutely don't agree with it..”
I had to prevent completely closing the door to my heart..
Only then will he be able to succeed in his plan..
“In fact, it is true that in aristocratic society, your age is the time to start thinking about marriage. So, rather than looking at people who approach you intentionally, look around you first. In fact, you may not even realize it, but there may already be someone you like rationally..”
maintained an appropriate line.
He sincerely counsels Lauren Dmitri's concerns, but at a level where he can appeal his own plans..
Lauren Dmitry showed a lighter expression..
It seemed like the problem had been resolved..
“Thank you every time. Like the professor said, I will try to be honest with my feelings without limiting my thoughts..”
“okay. Should we go out for lunch to commemorate our first meeting in a long time??”
“……Oh, I'm sorry. I really want to eat together, but I made a reservation in advance before coming here..”
I got the feeling.
Henry Albert asked.
“There is nothing we can do if there is a prior agreement. But who are you meeting??”
“Amy! Since I recently received some help, I said I would treat them to lunch first..”
Moment.
Henry Albert cheered inwardly..
who is amy.
Lauren is the 8th cousin who naturally led me to meet Dmitri. I was personally looking forward to it because she was really pretty, gentle, and kind-hearted..
But he made a personal appointment with Amy even though he didn't mean to..
Because it was a relationship that was formed so naturally, I clenched my fists without realizing it..
Contrary to my inner thoughts.
On the outside, he smiled brightly..
“Yeah, have a good time..”
I suppressed my excited voice..
Henry Albert did not know that it was still too early to raise a toast..
* * *
It was a happy day.
Henry Albert had a bright future as a professor, and he couldn't hide his excitement at the news that Lauren Dmitri and Amy would meet often..
If you really end up in a relationship with your in-laws,.
There is no one, not only Cairo, but even the entire Salamander Continent, who would oppose him for having Dmitri on his back..
but.
There were ups and downs in a person's life..
After class, I went to the office, and Professor Bradley, whom I met along the way, said with a sinister smile:.
“Professor Henry. Did you hear the news? This time, for cultural exchange between Dmitry and Cairo, Dmitry's flash Chris will visit the Academy in person. If you are Professor Henry, who personally crossed the line of life and death with Knight Chris on the battlefield, then of course you can introduce him to us, right? Of course, I am not asking you to provide a separate seat in a burdensome way, but I would like to ask you to briefly say your name after the meeting is over..”
In those words.
My heart sank..
Cold sweat ran down my back, but I couldn't refuse because I knew Professor Bradley's intentions..
‘If I avoid this meeting, Professor Bradley will be sure to criticize me harshly..’
Is that why?.
I blurted out the words without realizing it..
“Of course. As Professor Bradley said, we have overcome life and death together, so what can a whole name matter?.”
I laughed awkwardly.
D-3 days until Chris’s visit..
At the greatest juncture in his otherwise solid life, Henry Albert's mind began to move busily..
