Falson looked at Rovewell's face with anger and cried loudly:

“No... it can't be... You mean... The fact that we were given a special privilege to study here is just a plan by the government to lure the creators..."

“It all started when Violeska proposed to annex Jibasta with the argument: 'In recorded history, Jibasta has been part of the empire more than 1,000 years ago, now is the time for the empire to conquer it, the lost fertile land'.

"What? You're making it up, aren't you? Dammit, shithead.”- Falcon interrupted.

Rove did not stop talking despite being cursed:

“...but the country's leader at that time, Moxim III, denied that insisting on declaring Jibasta to be an independent, sovereign country, but could not provide accurate evidence. The people did not obediently submit the Empire from the beginning, they stubbornly refused to let the country merge with the Empire, and even demanded to stand side by side with Moxim to protect sovereignty. So the King formulated a strategy

    Jovie stood in the nearby hallway, leaning her head against the wall, sighing. He grabbed his chest and breathed slowly to try to calm down. He tried to find a corner where he could think quietly: “How could a young student like Rovewell know those things? Top secret information that only members of the Royal Cabinet know. So is it true that Rovewell has close ties with the Government as he says, or has the information been leaked? Indeed, Rovewell was one of the special... no, special students in the class. Not only with me, but he also has little contact with friends at school. I don't know anything about it...” Suddenly, when mentioning that, a thought flashed in Jovie's mind, and he immediately took the Smart Device from his pocket and flashed the RoboR2203 teaching robot through the Buruten-Access connection software on his SD card. Once connected, before waiting for his assistant to speak, Jovie quickly spoke first: “Hello, it's Jovie. Is Rovewell there now?” "Have. I'm curre

    Dark times have passed within Colvard's walls. The cleaning staff sent by Principal Linc came to repair and clean up the rubble around R2203's office, which had been turned into a battlefield with large and small bullet holes in the walls, ceiling, floor, etc... However, for Jovie, the worry of a potential danger was present in his mind.After taking Rove to the medical room, he alone did all the work of examining and bandaging his student's wounds, looking quite pensive. Rove saw that he was being carefully taken care of, pretended not to like it, pushed Jovie's hand away, and said:“Okay, I'm fine. The person who needs to be tested is the other teacher. It seems you injured your arm while trying to dodge an attack from R2203.”“Don't worry about me, Rove. I am a teacher now, but I used to be a former student of that military training department. There is nothing compared to back then.”“Military training department? Well, that's why you have such a strong body technique. So admirabl

    After 30 minutes in Principal Linc's office, Jovie walked out with a face that was not at all relaxed. Even though Elana was next to him, he still remained silent even though the other person wanted him to open a conversation. Seeing Jovie's face as tense as a string but not paying any attention to her, Elana immediately raised her hand, frowned and said:“Can you relax your face a little? What did Principal Linc say or were you upset about what I just said in the room so you showed such an attitude?"Even though Jovie was thinking about the "heavy" task assigned by Principal Linc, seeing Elana's discomfort also bothered him, and explained:“I don't mean to ignore you. And let me apologize for saying that to you earlier. I care about the safety of students, that's why I said that, I didn't mean anything else, with my all respect."“I know. As a teacher, it's okay to see your students in danger."Jovie saw the bright smile on Elana's face when looking at him, which made him believe tha

    Witnessing the entire conversation between Jovie and Elana on the screen, Principal Linc seemed quite confused, turned to ask Selen who was standing absent-mindedly by the window, and said:“I don't know if my decision is really right. The truth is that I am putting those two boys in a dangerous situation. On the outside, they agree, but on the inside, they are probably still hesitant and hesitant."“Are you really going to let those two be the guardians of my inventions?” - Selen said with a worried voice - “They have been away from the battlefield for a long time, so their combat experience must not be as good as ever. old. Giving it to them, I don't feel secure at all."“Behind them, there is still an elite army protecting them. Don't worry, we will check thoroughly from the vehicle to the driver. As for you, how prepared are you?"“Everything has been arranged well. But I need a guarantee, a guarantee that my precious inventions will not fall into the wrong hands if protected by t

    Kinsley gradually understood Jovie's reasoning, realized that he was a bit short-sighted even though he was a duke, held his head, and smiled:“You're right. Why would I forget that? In the end, what is the meaning of war when it only serves the interests of leaders but hurts the people - those who have the loudest voice and are the roots of a country?Then he raised his hand and touched Jovie's shoulder, saying:“Why are we stressing about what happened? I'm sorry, I was so excited earlier that I said bad things to you."“Eh, don't say that, I was a bit loud and said things to you that weren't right. I just want you to understand my thoughts deep in my heart." - Jovie held Kinsley's hand and whispered.“Ah, I almost forgot to tell you one thing. Today, King Algorik has an invitation to have lunch with you, to discuss something.”“Ah, is that so?”- Jovie implicitly understood and replied- “It's an honor for me. So we should go down to the banquet room and wait for King Algorik, right?

    Now everyone understands that things are starting to become more ambiguous and complicated than they thought. The insider story has always been very sensitive even though it is an extremely common issue everywhere, especially in the Violeska territory. Understanding the seriousness of the problem, the king had to stand up from the throne and then stagger down to the surprise of his ministers. He signaled Kinsley to come closer to him and asked:“How do you think this matter should be handled? Is it necessary to make a trip to Federation J to investigate the matter and thoroughly see what's really going on?"“Your Majesty, don't worry. I have no doubts about the strength and loyalty of the ministers sent there. But if you are not assured, why don't we directly call Aragad's powerful subordinate, Frankastin, to come here and ask for clarification instead of going all the way to the federation?"Hearing advice from Kinsley, the king nodded, patted the duke's shoulder, and then walked with

    Aragad continue his speech: "The evidence is that in the assassinations he committed, the victims after being stabbed or slashed to death had the words "MUINATTA" carved on their right arms with the letter 'N' turned upside down and a piece of paper with a message on it: 'I will take back what you guys took from me', the thing you called ‘the treasure which must be not named.’” “Are you telling the truth? He... who exactly is he? How could he know about the treasure?" - The king stood restless, his face pale from anxiety to the point of biting his nails.After hearing this, Jovie suddenly imagined the character that Aragad was talking about and thought:“That person has a way of acting similar to 'him' - that long-haired guy. On the day he met me and before handing over the sling, he also mentioned that he would reclaim the treasure that had been stolen by a group of people living here. Is there any reason…”The king was extremely uneasy and asked Aragad:“And can you tell me more ab

When Elvina's friends stopped to call her back, Elvina told them to go first and then said to Jovie:“You keep your voice down, otherwise people will discover me.

    The commander of the guards ordered them to chase, shouting loudly: "Someone is running to the right side of the ScoutJet, Princess Himela, watch out." Suddenly from the crowd, Affa appeared and grabbed the prisoner and pinned him to the ground. Because his hands were chained and held so tightly that he could not move, he had to cry out for his life. Himela and Aragad were shocked. Affa immediately said to him:“What are you planning to do? Are you planning to attack the governor and his daughter?”The guards saw that Affa had suppressed the target and immediately stopped, while Jovie exclaimed: "Affa, you...", the crowd was shocked, and everyone gasped. Affa held his hand tightly and continued:"What's your name? How dare you recklessly act in such a crowd? You should rest in peace and bear the blame. I hate criminals like you.”The prisoner that Affa captured tried to explain:“You fucking misunderstood. I didn't run here to assassinate the princess."“Don't try to object it, I knew

That was his favorite outfit, he only wore it on occasion. A truly special occasion in life. The outfit made Affa sitting right next to her admire:“You should be a photo model. As soon as you look at him, you immediately know that he is a person with stylish clothes and a true playboy.""I rarely wear this outfit when I go out. Now I'm only touching it because I lent you my Raccoon outfit."“You’re bullshitting, right? Because you like wearing it, right? You have other clothes to wear…”“Screw you, Affa. I'm not. That's not bullshit but the truth, nah..." - Jovie's face fell - "I've already put all the other sets in the clothes bin, I haven't had time to wash them yet, there are only two sets left that you and I are wearing."“And I have to say, the thing you let me borrow

    After lunch with the king, Jovie quickly left Voidenorten Palace and went home. As he drove the Rollride-1010 back, he remembered the king's instructions earlier while having lunch together about the enormous responsibility of becoming the commander of the elite army escorting the armory transport vehicle. to the palace: “Your task is extremely hard. Enemies are everywhere, so are their spies, they definitely know about my assignment to you this time. Whether or not the weapon truck can safely reach the palace depends entirely on your bravery and talent. Don't think I'm flattering you, it's the truth. I trust you a lot, so do not disappoint me, my knight.”That sentence kept echoing in his head the whole way. He finds this more stressful than running a class with bad students. He did not know what would happen next, or who the enemy he would face would be, he could only rely on his abilities and judgment to improvise. Suddenly he looked to the right of the bridge, a few hundred meters
