Chapter 210.2. Susano’o Unit

-Masatoshi’s POV-

In the original work, it was decided we would enter the academy at the same time as enrolling, and they boasted about it, but now they have enlisted at this age.

Hehehe… Does this mean I’m going to die too?

“As their subordinates, I have prepared loyal servants for His Majesty the Emperor.”

By Menou Robin’s words, the others also bow their heads.

“Although they are orphanage magicians, they have the potential to become a formidable magician.”

“We will become the Emperor’s right hand and do our best, hehehe.”

Takano Chuya, who was exiled from Takano County, gives such a terrible greeting that Masatoshi who watching him turns pale.

He not only scores zero in etiquette but even negative points.

He’s fatter than I last saw him and doesn’t seem to be training.

While the others greet me properly, I knew Chuya is an idiot.

“Orphanage magicians, huh… Are they useful?”

Seeing Chuya’s awfulness, the Emperor asks with a cold gaze, but Menou Robin waves his hand dramatically and nods confidently.

“It’s all right. These individuals have magical power and have been trained. This chubby… I mean, Chuya-kun is also excellent in magic.”

“Is that so?”

The Emperor looks at Chuya, who laughs with a “hehehe,” and nods without changing his cold gaze.

They were supposed to be allies at Sena-san’s request.

However, Duke Kanna took them first.

The orphan magicians. Since there was no description of them in the novel, even Masatoshi, who is a god, did not know, but he was surprised when he went to the scene.

They’re magicians. They’re people who can earn money without doing anything, and powerful magician orphans live a luxurious life as they are in high demand.

The reason Chuya is fat is also because of that.

Even though he became an orphan, he lounged around in a room like a suite in a hotel.

If they were orphans, I thought that if I gave them delicious food and a large sum of money, they would cry, be moved, and pledge their loyalty.

But my expectations were wrong, and I was troubled.

Even in front of Masatoshi, the eldest son of the Duke, he lazily lies on the sofa and shows no sign of respect.

I can call him a rich idiot son who lives as a NEET.

Perhaps Sena-san doesn’t know the true situation of the orphanage for magicians.

No, she must have misunderstood it as a similar life since she has seen the orphanage where Mion lives.

So, because she said she wanted to see if things were going well, I was troubled, but being taken away by Duke Kanna turned out to be a relief.

“Kyaa, Shin-sama~!”

“Masatoshi-sama~!”

The girls of the same age as me scream in high-pitched voices. Oh yeah. I’m popular too, I remember it. So I force a smile and raise one hand, but my mouth twitches.

“Masatoshi, your mouth is twitching, you know?”

“Shut up, Shin.”

“Since she’s your fiancée’s candidate, why don’t you be more friendly?”

“Shut up, just be quiet.”

Shin teasingly laughs and mocks me beside me, so I answer in a subdued voice.

The incident with Masatoshi’s fiancée is still fresh in his memory. It became a rumor, damn it.

Unlike Shin and Robin, I can’t handle things smoothly. They can brush it off, but it’s impossible for me. There are things even a god can and cannot do.

To the carnivorous animals who believe that if you push, they’ll fall, the Emperor continues to speak while showing a smile.

“And let’s also announce the establishment of a ceremonial unit, not a large group like the Susano’o Unit.”

Everyone stirs at those words. Nobody knew about that conversation.

Duke Kanna also furrows his brows and shows a faint surprise.

“Then, let me introduce them to everyone. The new unit, the Holy Knights.”

As the Emperor spoke, the doors of the audience room opened, and unexpected people walk in.

At the forefront is Sena-san, dressed in an elegant and beautiful dress.

“The captain of the Holy Knights, Princess Genshin Sena.”

“I’m Genshin Sena. I will be serving as the captain of the Holy Knights from now on. Please take care of me.”

Performing a courtesy and wearing a graceful smile, I can’t help but be captivated by Sena-san.

But what’s this Holy Knights? It wasn’t in the original work.

“The vice-captains will be assigned to Teijou Yamiyo and Countess Takano Miu.”

“Yes. Despite my petite stature, I’m determined to produce results.”

Teijou Yamiyo, the reincarnated individual wearing a black dress, performs a courtesy.

“Hehe. Takano Miu, at your service.”

For some reason, Takano Miu prostrates herself.

She looks like she could roll up her small body and tumble.

She’s adorable, but she’s still an idiot as always. Hasn’t she studied etiquette?

“As you can see, the Holy Knights is an all-female unit. From now on, they will participate in every ceremonial event.”

The people led by Sena-san are indeed all young girls.

Masatoshi understood that it was a way to enhance Sena-san’s reputation.

If they were only for ceremonies. It wouldn’t be strange even if they didn’t appear in the novel.

They’ll probably disband before the start of the original work. I wanted to talk about various things later and speak with Sena-san.

Masatoshi thought lightly.

“Ah! You trash who stole my title!”

The chubby one points at Miu and shouts.

“It’s because of this trash woman my luxurious life is gone! Hey, give it back right now! It’s a duel! I’ll settle it with a duel!”

Masatoshi wanted to scream in despair at the disturbance in front of the Emperor.

Come to think of it. This guy was an alien who couldn’t communicate even when we met at the orphanage.
