The Ivory Tower is a transnational institution, and if Seong-eum becomes a star, Jincheon will lose valuable talent.

�It�s not the world�s problem, it�s my own problem.�

Jin Kang nodded.

�It would be nice to give it some time.�But don�t forget�Anytime, under any circumstance����.�

Jin Kang�s eyes flashed.

�Simple beats complex.�

As the space split open, 200 guards surrounded Seongeum, and the captain of the guards standing one step ahead thrust a blade into Seongeum�s neck.

�Princess Mama, obey the law.�No more disrespect will be tolerated.�

When the obsession of space was broken, Seong-eum glared at Jin-gang with fierce eyes.

�I grant you permission to take the Ivory Tower test.�Do you want to try hard?�

�joy!�

At the same time as the vocal sound snapped, the guards captain�s blade bent like a snake and aimed at his groin.

�this����!�

The captain of the guards, who was enraged at the rudeness shown in front of the emperor, chased after Seong-eum, but Jin-gang spoke in a low voice.

�it�s okay.�Just let it go.�

�But Your Majesty the Emperor!�Mama�s behavior a moment ago����.�

�It�s because I don�t have iron.�It will be fine, even in the ivory tower.�

It was a tower that Jincheon would break someday.

�Have fun and come, Jinkang�s daughter.�

One day before the graduation ceremony, Sirone and her friends ironed their uniforms.

It�ll probably sound like a ghost, but it�s comforting to think of it as one of the last hurdles to graduation.

After ironing, they sat side by side and started writing their graduation speeches to be read tomorrow.

About an hour passed like that, Nade grumbled.

�I hate writing.�I fought to the death, so why do I have to do this?�

said Iruki.

�That is what life is all about.�Why, there is such a saying.�It�s not over until it�s over.�

�Mmm.�

Shirone nodded and looked back at Iruki.

�But isn�t that a word used in other contexts?� JrNovels.com
