Nation of Maevia (1)

When I woke up, I was Aedis.

“Why?”

Whoa, my voice was amazing.

The submerged bass that can only be heard in the early morning woke me up.

I traced my face with my long, smooth fingers and found myself frowning furiously in front of the mirror.

Mmm, now that I’ve become Aedis, Aedis must be occupying my body, right?

The figure tapping on the mirror seemed to be under a very big illusion.

I slowly raised my upper body and said,

“I didn’t get stuck in the mirror, Aedis became me. And I put on my nightgown backwards.”

I would have been surprised if I had switched bodies with someone I didn’t know, but since Aedis was with me, it was exciting rather than a tense feeling.

This shouldn’t be a dream.

Aedis noticed me then.

“….Eve?”

Aedis ran over and checked over me. He seemed a bit worried now that I had possessed his body.

“I’m fine.”

My body changed, but nothing else was wrong.

Rather, I was taking advantage of Aedis’ monstrous stamina after shedding my morning sleep.

I straightened Aedis’ backwards nightgown and woke up completely.

“What is this all of a sudden? Do you have any idea?”

Aedis shook his head.

“I’ll find a solution somehow. I’ll get you out as quickly as possible, so please be patient.”

In Aedis’ eyes, it looks like I’m being tortured in a hellfire.

But I was already ready to enjoy this situation.

Possessing the body of the husband you love when you reincarnated with the memories of your previous life.

“Let’s eat breakfast, take a walk, and look for it leisurely. And then there’s something I want to try.”

“Think about perverted things later.”

Aedis narrowed his eyes and tugged at the rope.

I laughed out loud as I picked up the clothes lying on the floor and put them on.

“Will you listen to me if I tell you later?”

I couldn’t hear Aedis’ answer because the servants rushed in.

While we were having breakfast in our room and enjoying our after-meal tea, Procyon knocked on the door from outside.

“Master, I’ve come to pick you up.”

I recalled Aedis’ schedule, which was as closely lined as mine. He said he had a meeting this morning.

I whispered to Aedis.

“First of all, don’t tell others that we’ve changed bodies, right? It’ll only create confusion. And… huhuhu… huhuhu…”

This situation was so funny that I kept laughing.

Aedis had a quizzical expression as he looked at my face.

“Do I look like that when I smile?”

“Handsome, right? I know.”

I changed into casual clothes with Aedis’ help, while he seemed to have a lot to say. I cleared my throat one last time before heading out the door.

“How is my voice?”

“It’s strange.”

Aedis tried to refute, which he couldn’t do before, but it bounced off as soon as it reached my ear.

“Perfect? I know. I’ll be back.”

“….”

It was a refreshing experience to see the world through Aedis’ eyes. I was able to look down at Procyon, who was much taller than me.

If Shaula was in the castle, I would have pampered her, but it’s a pity. Currently, Shaula is with Eleonora.

My disciple looked like a handsome man with jewel-like eyes, but he couldn’t live in the Cyclamen Castle for a long time because he was actually a huge spider beast.

I hated it myself, and the employees were afraid.

When leaving, Eleonora also took the wolf-shaped beast that Aedis had saved from the forest, and Shaula felt a special attachment to the wolf. She seemed to think of the wolf like a lost sibling.

She insisted on giving the wolf a name as cool and strong as possible.

The wolf had already imprinted on me, saying that it would be meaningful only if I named it.

Thanks to that, I went to the ancient dictionary and gave the wolf the name ‘Cyril.’

It was said that it was a title given to the most outstanding warrior, so after hearing the interpretation, Shaula was satisfied.

Wouldn’t Shaula still be running around with Cyril harassing Eleonora? I, her boss, had completely forgotten.

When I thought of Shaula, who gave no real sense that she was my escort, I let out a sigh unknowingly.

Procyon looked up at me as I sighed and made a sound and stepped back.

“Did you have a couples’ fight? You look more bloody today.”

I raised my eyebrows.

“What do you mean ‘a couples’ fight?’ Eve is God.”

Suddenly, Procyon was relieved.

“Ah, you’re just the same Master as usual. I was surprised.”

….the same as usual?

Procyon did not suspect me at all and relaxed.

While the body has changed, I need to discover the reaction of the other knights.

On our way to the conference room, we also encountered three cats who had taken over Cyclamen Castle.

They were cats that Tolymann Elliott valued more than his own life.

The white cat was Isabel, the tuxedo cat was Maximus, and the smallest cheese tabby cat was Carolina.

Isabel was famous for its temper, Maximus for its calmness, and Carolina for its cuteness.

It was definitely Carolina who monopolized the handmaids’ love.

“Guys, won’t you greet me today?”

Procyon talked to the cats who didn’t even pretend to see him.

In the meantime, I hadn’t been very interested in cats.

It was because I suffered from cat allergy in my previous life, and Elliot and the handmaids took good care of it.

Sometimes when Isabel followed me around, I was just amazed.

However, in Aedis’ ears the cats’ cries were strange.

“Go awayeow.”

“Annoying human.”

… what’s in my ear?

I turned my head and looked at the cats.

Perhaps it hadn’t been a day or two for Aedis to understand what the cats were saying, as the cats leisurely passed us, scolding Procyon.

Procyon, like me in the past, didn’t seem to understand the cats’ speech at all.

Procyon sullenly opened the meeting room door.

“Hnng, we’ve arrived…”

Huh? Why are there only knights?

All of them had clear discipline on their shoulders.

I almost got a bit nervous at the same time, but I narrowed my eyes as I looked at the meeting agenda that Vega had brought.

The agenda for the meeting was about Regen, who was about to enter the academy.

Neither I nor Aedis had ever been to an academy, so I was puzzled when Regen wanted to enter.

Still, there was no request that I couldn’t grant for Regen, even if it was facing a meteor.

The problem was that the Imperial Academy was located in the capital far from the north.

As an adopted child, Regen would be a perfect target in getting caught up in territoriality and quarrels.

“This is a list of students who need to be removed, no, measures must be taken to ensure a smooth academy life for Lord Regen. This student in particular is very bad. He is the dean’s son, so he did not get any punishment for putting two students in serious condition. The professor who objected was punished to leave the academy altogether. Maybe our Lord will be bullied, too.”

“Let’s cut his throat right now!”

“Wait. Cutting the throat is too conspicuous. Let’s naturally disguise it as an accidental death.”

“I know some dealers who specialize in carriage accidents. Shall I contact them? I heard that the carriages made by Jess company are so poor these days because of cost reduction…”

Within the first five minutes of the meeting, concrete assassination plans began to emerge.

I clicked my tongue as I watched the meeting room, which quickly became lively.

“Even if you don’t care, Regen will take care of himself. Discard the security plan written here.”

“Master has been most worried… .”

Procyon protested timidly.

However, I was not Aedis who could kill people with just a glance, but Maevia who was good at behind the scenes maneuvering. In the capital, my way would work much better.

“I’ve already bought everyone from the chairman of the board to the cleaners… Khhm.”

I coughed.

The plan I had been carrying out without Aedis’ knowledge was about to be revealed.

Instead of saying that the dean would soon be exposed for corruption and get fired, I changed the subject.

“Anyway, if you don’t have anything to do, at least make a song of praise to Maevia.”

Castor raised his hand.

“The order you gave three days ago? Sooner or later, Sir Azena will bring back…not kidnap…. a talented composer …”

Huh? You mean Aedis already ordered it?

It was the first time I’d ever heard of it. Aedis must have been doing some secret while I was buying the whole academy.

I tilted my head at an angle.

“Then Maevia’s statue.”

“As you commanded, we started production. There is no need to worry as we are strictly monitoring the construction to make sure that there is no poor workmanship.”

Pollux answered this time.

What is this?

I threw out another just in case.

“Maevia’s historical biography.”

“It is wonderfully finished and released on the market. It has been designated as a must-read throughout the empire, and in consultation with the imperial family, we are currently speeding up the translation work to advance into other countries.”

….already done? My husband’s love for his wife is at such a serious level?

Besides, none of the knights showed signs of doubting my identity.

They seemed to think that the song of praise for Maevia, the statue of Maevia, and the biography of Maevia were all subjects that Aedis would naturally pay attention to.
