Jobless Reincarnation: Live Seriously Even Without Transfer Events

"I'm Lord Rudeus's assistant, you know. I don't care about being a minister or anything like that. On the contrary, you, Miss Silphiette, are always following that old woman Cosette around. Do you have the right to point fingers at me?"

"you……"

Seeing that Hilfi was speechless for a moment, Lilith also adjusted her breathing and said in a calm tone.

"You should be able to tell what Cosette is thinking, Silphiette."

"The president? Her plan?"

Hilfi paused for a moment, then stroked her chin.

What are the president's plans?

Lilith shook her head slightly, then looked at me.

"And what about Lord Rudius?"

Cosette's plan?

Given what she just said, the head of the study department resigned. Is there any connection?

"rule."

After saying that, Lilith started gnawing on the chicken leg again.

rule?

Are they internal rules of the student council?

I frantically searched my memory for anything related to the student council's rules...

"Today it's Balk resigning, tomorrow it might be Croit, then the other ministers, and finally the candidate for president will be..."

Hilfi muttered to herself.

"She's quite smart."

As she spoke, Lilith cast an approving glance at Silphie.

"Lord Rudeus, have you thought it through?"

I nodded silently.

What Hilfi said just now seems to have made me understand something. The rules that Lilith mentioned are exactly the rules for the student council president election. Every minister and vice president becomes a candidate and competes for the president's position.

Now, Cosette is using this rule to steer things in the direction she wants, using her power as president to force all ministers who disagree with her to resign or be dismissed by her. I remember that a month or two ago, Cosette said that the next school anniversary celebration would be the ministers' last chance, but there is still a month until the school anniversary celebration.

Now, if ministers are dismissed one after another, there will be very few candidates left. Who will benefit from that?

Cosette will graduate next year, and who she most hopes will succeed her as student council president will definitely be the ultimate beneficiary, and that person can only be her younger brother, Mulgore.

"So, Cosette's plan is to prevent all candidates from running for president and then elect the person she most wants to be the next president?" I said, looking at Lilith.

Lilith quietly munched on her chicken leg and replied unhurriedly, "Yes, but not entirely. Just wait and see; maybe a new minister will join us in a few days."

……

"You mean Cosette will fire the other ministers and replace them with others?" I asked.

"Of course, after all, Cosette, as the student council president, has the power to appoint a minister. As for external publicity, it's just a matter of saying some polite words, as long as it's generally acceptable."

Lilith lightly licked the grease off her fingertips from the chicken leg and said unhurriedly, "Cosette, that old woman, is at the pinnacle of power in the student council. Her goal is nothing more than to turn the student council from a public institution into her own. Simply dismissing the other ministers is definitely not enough. The school anniversary is a good opportunity..."

"What...a good opportunity?"

I was a bit confused by what Lilith was saying, but I roughly understood what she meant. Cosette planned to become the "ruler" of this school, and even if she was gone a year later, she would still insist on continuing her rule. So who would become "Hideyori" and who would become "Ieyasu"?

[Note: "天下人" means "the people of the world" or "the rulers of the world."]

"I mean, Lord Rudius, this is a good opportunity to make a decisive move."

Lilith smiled, her eyes narrowed, but she exuded confidence.

"My golden opportunity to win..."

I think I understand what Lilith means. For Cosette, the school anniversary celebration might be a good opportunity to purge other department heads and replace them all with her own people. For me, it's also a good opportunity to become the new president.

But how should we seize it...?

"Oh, good afternoon, Ms. Luo Qixi."

"Hmm, good afternoon, Lilith."

"You're all here! What a coincidence!"

Suddenly hearing Ms. Loki's voice, I looked up sharply. She was sitting down next to Hilfi with a tray on it. The tray was unusually full. Usually, it was just two pieces of bread, but today it was... double the amount of beef, three chicken cutlets, a large portion of mashed potatoes, a large bowl of rice, and cream soup...

It seems like Ms. Luo Qixi has eaten up her entire day's salary. Can she really afford this kind of revenge spending?

"Teacher Luo Qixi, is it really okay for you to eat so much...?"

I pointed to the food on her plate and asked.

“It’s okay, I need to celebrate, yes, celebrate, I’m going to eat my way back all the days off I’ve been taken from during this time.”

As she spoke, Teacher Luo Qixi picked up the steak and started eating it, which looked very satisfying.

"Celebrating? Are you sure it's not venting? Did someone bully the teacher? Or... is the teacher going to have to work overtime again? I remember two months ago, Teacher Luo Qixi went out drinking and was brought back by Lily."

I couldn't help but laugh when I remembered how Ms. Luo Qixi was drunk and slumped over the doorway, her face flushed as she clung to the stair railing.

"Back then, Ms. Luo Qixi even talked in her sleep on my back."

Lilith chuckled to herself.

"Hmm, this time it's different. Professor Genius has specially granted me a vacation as compensation."

Teacher Luo Qixi smiled smugly and then stuffed the steak into her mouth again.

"Really? Then I really need to replenish my body."

As I spoke, I glanced at Hilfi. I remembered that she and Professor Loki were very close, but after being scolded by Lilith just now, she stopped talking and didn't even greet Professor Loki.

Hilfi rested her chin on her hand and looked out the window, as if she was thinking about something.

At this moment, Lilith reached out her finger and gently poked Silphie's nose.

"Oops! You've smeared oil all over my nose."

"I'm covering my nose with my hand," Hilfi said, while giving Lilith a resentful look.

Lilith noticed that while Sylphie was glaring at her fiercely, she seemed quite pleased, wearing a grinning expression. It was as if Lilith had a particular fondness for teasing Sylphie...

Teacher Luo Qixi observed Xilufei for a moment, then put down the steak and said:

"It just so happens that I have time to teach Rudy and Hilfi King-level magic. You two are free on your days off, right?"

Hilfi glanced at me furtively, then at Lilith, and excitedly raised her hand, saying, "Yeah, I'm free, and Rudy must be free too, right!"

Watching her long, slender ears sway back and forth always makes me want to touch them a few times and lick them a few times.

"Wait a minute, Lord Rudeus is busy."

Lilith carefully wiped her fingers with a tissue, her expression returning to normal. "I've already reserved Lord Rudeus's day off."

"Huh? When?"

When did Lilith book my day off?

Did I make an agreement with her?

"Eh? Have you forgotten, Lord Rudeus? You just promised to go horseback riding together on your day off."

Lilith pouted, her words tinged with resentment.

Then I remembered, it really was something that happened just now; she asked me if I could ride a horse, and then…

Oh, I was staring at the gap in her blouse the whole time. Forget it, Rama, what a sin!

Looking at Lilith's slightly pouting lips, is she a little angry?

Even when she's angry, she's still so beautiful...

No! What am I thinking! She's giving me a hint! It's been almost two months since we've had any physical intimacy, isn't this an obvious opportunity?

Great!

“I remember now! I was supposed to have Miss Lilith teach me how to ride a horse. I’m so sorry, I completely forgot.”

"It's alright. Since Lord Rudeus has remembered, I will forgive Lord Rudeus."

As she spoke, Lilith gave me a smile.

"I really want to learn King-level magic with Rudy..."

Hilfi had a gloomy face, her head drooped, and her ears drooped down.

I'm sorry, Sylphie, blame my unusually strong desires.

“Um… Sylphie… I’m so sorry, I…”

"Rudy promised me he'd be with me anytime..."

She started sobbing softly, and I think I could see tears welling up in the corners of her eyes.

I'm such an idiot. I had already made up my mind not to make Sylphie cry anymore, how could I...

"What should I do? I really want Lord Rudeus to keep me company on my days off too!"

At that moment, Lilith hugged my arm, her soft texture pressed against my arm. The feeling of her waves and ripples was completely different from touching it with my own hands, and it had robbed me of my ability to think time and time again.

How to do?

How to do?

"belch!"

A burp came from behind me, and I quickly looked to Ms. Luo Qixi for help. She had already finished her steak and was now munching on a chicken cutlet, but she seemed to be having trouble eating anymore. She really couldn't take it anymore...

Stop eating, Ms. Luo Qixi! Please help me!

"Why don't you all come together? You can learn to ride horses and learn magic. Besides, Hilfi can't ride a horse either, so it's a good opportunity for Miss Lilith to see a water-level magic."

Teacher Luo Qixi put down the chicken cutlet in her hand and said.

"I have no objection."

As she spoke, Lilith rested her head on my shoulder.

"All right……"

Hilfi reluctantly agreed, and the crisis was averted.

Ms. Luo Qixi glanced at me and then asked.

"Rudy doesn't have any objections, right?"

"Of course!"

As expected of Teacher Luo Qixi, she solved the problem in no time.

Honestly, only children make choices. Of course, I want them all!

At that moment, Lilith leaned close to my ear and whispered, "Lord Rudeus, it's okay to have fun, but don't forget our promise."

Chapter 148: Speaking out of integrity

……

"The last time I rode a horse with Rudy was probably eight or nine years ago."

"Yes, that was the first time I was taken out of the house, when I was five years old..."

That was the first time Teacher Loki took me away from home. Similarly, it was the first time I had left home in my decades as a NEET. The God who led me out of the shadows of my past life and led me from darkness to light was sitting in front of me at that moment.

My hands were wrapped around that slender waist, so soft, as if it would break if I exerted the slightest force.

"Rudy was sitting on my lap back then, but now he can't fit anymore."
