What’s that?
Is it a bird?
Is it a plane?
No, it’s—
Huh? Dang, coulda sworn there was something there a minute ago…
Well, whatever it was was now slinking off around corners and crevices, avoiding eyes of all kinds and colors. Quite sturdy, admirable walls, weren’t they? Like castle walls. Castle walls that were unrelenting, prepared to protect their princess, till rubble did they part.
But in every story like that, there was a mighty dragon who went and ripped apart their relationship from the inside out! And once the walls are out of the picture, the princess is easy to overthrow!
And if this dragon can’t breathe fire, well, she’ll find another way! And stealth was definitely, totally her thing. She was deceiving enough to pull off little charades, after all, so that must apply elsewhere! Right? Right! Operation: Sneak Inside Honnouji Academy is a—
❝ A-ah! I’m sorry, I’m sorry!! F-forgive me!! ❞
—complete and utter failure, apparently.
♕ - While Honnouji Academy protects her two beloved princesses and their loyal subjects, the Director had a fort of her own to protect. While her eldest daughter was viewed as more of a queen by the masses rather than the staunchly strong princess that her mother had viewed her, Ragyo was an empress; an empress who ruled with her emperor wisely and happily.
7:45 am, and she hummed quietly to herself, contentedly walking out of the massive building that shouldn’t even be deemed as a simple school. It was more than a school; it was like a second headquarters to the famed company REVOCS, and the school held its annual Sports Day that very day. She merely wanted to get some fresh air to invigorate her spirits; after all, she had to be prepared to give the officiating speech as the Director of the school.
….Oh?
❝ Do you need anything, dear? ❞ Ragyo asked, smiling at the bespectacled girl without a hint of suspicion.
