Public educational institution “Graham Academy”.
Graham Academy, located in the Duchy of Frisia, was one of the largest educational institutions along with the Magic Tower.
As an educational institution boasting a long history, the number of graduates who have made the name of Graham Academy shine is as numerous as the stars in the sky, and it is safe to say that the curriculum has already been ‘completed.’
Excellent teachers and a great curriculum are basic.
The beautiful scenery of the academy campus is enough both mind and body, making it one of the four most beautiful sights in Frisia.
Wearing the Graham Academy uniform meant becoming the next generation of leaders who will lead the world in the future.
It’s like proving your ability simply by successfully graduating from Graham Academy.
That’s why parents around the world put a lot of effort into having their children admitted to Graham Academy.
The same was true for the mothers in the miscellaneous mansion.
The children, who will turn six this year, are now close to entering Graham Academy.
Winter hasn’t gone yet and it’s a chilly early spring.
Brigitte said, wrapping her scarf around Naru’s neck.
“Naru, can you do well on the entrance exam?”
“Naru, I’m confident about the entrance exam! Rather… I remember taking the entrance exam before… ! Naru, I said that slaughtering people without mercy is the best thing in the world… ! Oh wow…! I remember a lot… !”
It was Naru who raised his hand
Bridgette looked at Naru and felt a little worried.
She was nervous about whether Naru would be able to pass the entrance exam.
When she was feeling her parents’ feelings, Salome carefully packed her lunch box and her handkerchief into Hina’s bag.
“Rock… Oh… Kenaz…”
Hina was reading an exercise book with “Rune Words” Written on it. In Salome’s opinion, Hina was worthy of aiming for a perfect score in her written exam for this year’s entrance exam.
So what about Cecily?
Compared to Hina, Cecily didn’t like studying as much. Garrot also did not force Cecily to study.
“Cecily, we are aiming for an interview and a practical test.”
The academy entrance exam was divided into three types: written test, interview, and practical test.
In Garot’s opinion, Cecily’s handwriting was passable. Instead, Cecily looked so cute that she was sure to get a perfect score in the interview.
As long as you get a high score in the practical exam, passing is the same as passing.
“I want to go and see it together.”
Garrot wanted to follow Cecily to the exam site.
However, because parents who followed their children often made a fuss about whether they passed or not and the grading criteria, the standards were changed to allow children to handle everything from arriving at school to taking the test on their own.
“Come here.”
Garrot hugged Cecily.
Then she squeezed her soft, white cheeks and sucked them into her mouth.
Of course, Cecily struggled.
“Hey… !”
“Guys, then, let’s go!”
Bridget waved her hand at her children.
Leading the children was Tywin, who turned 12 this year.
Tywin had grown tall and was becoming a very beautiful woman.
At the age of 12, Tywin’s princess power is a whopping SR.
She was a genius who showed great activity at Graham Academy and was called the “Ashen Princess.”
As Tywin walked the children to school, people turned their attention to him one by one. They opened their lips as if admiring the company of cute children and a pretty girl.
“Which family are their daughters from?”
“Are they sisters?”
“I guess these kids are famous even in Frisia.”
Today is the day when parents with children flock to the city from even outside Frisia. Every street was crowded with children, so Tywin was a little distracted.
I thought it would be a good idea to hold the children’s hands and go.
Especially since Naruna Cecily was prone to accidents, she had to hold her hand.
But Ty Win realized he was one step too late.
“… The kids are…”
Naru, Hina, and Cecily were nowhere to be seen.
Ty Win hurriedly raised his head high and looked around.
It was difficult to find the children because there were so many small children crowding around.
“Naru! Hina! Cecily!”
Tywin shouted the names of the three sisters out loud.
It was a moment of slightly cold sweat.
Today is the entrance ceremony of Graham Academy.
If I were late for the entrance ceremony, I would have no chance to take the exam until next year.
Even if they were the daughters of Judah, it was clear that Graham Academy would not give them preferential treatment and would make strict judgments.
Since it is an educational institution that has gained a reputation for its strictness, they will try to conduct even more fair evaluations.
“I can’t believe the kids were late for the entrance ceremony and failed. “This should never happen as long as I have Tywin.”
Zek-.
Tywin rolled up her sleeves to expose her white wrists.
Like Tywin, her older sister had a natural obligation to take responsibility for her younger sisters.

When I woke up late, Sifnoi was busy walking around the hallway.
What is happening?
“Sifnoi, do you look in a good mood? Is it because the kids started school?”
Sifnoi started crawling around the mansion from the time the children were just born. She also served as the children’s nanny from the time the children were crawling around the mansion until they entered school.
The story about nymphs being good at seeing children was indeed true.
However, having to take care of three children at once must have been difficult for the nymph. In that sense, the children’s admission to school was a great news for Sifnoi.
Now, while the kids are at school, Sifnoy will have some free time.
So I thought she looked happy, but it seems she wasn’t.
“Mmm, that Sifnoi…” ” ! The search for the “Thieves’ Cave” Near Phrygia is almost complete… ! Soon, you will be able to collect the Thieves’ Code and the Skeleton Key and become the King of Thieves… It really happens… !”
I see.
It seemed that Sifnoi was not far away from becoming the true king of thieves. But, well, the era of thieves had already ended four or five years ago.
As the rumor spread that a nymph might become the king of thieves, most thieves and criminals retired and left to look for new jobs.
Also, there are fewer and fewer new recruits willing to learn the trade of thieves and criminals, so the level of criminals these days has dropped to a very low level.
At best, it’s a petty thief.
Thanks to this, the underground thieves’ guild – the Shadow Council – also began to quiet down.
It felt like seeing a commercial district dying in solitude due to population movement and decline.
From my perspective as a thief, it was a pity that the world of back alleys and walls became smaller, but as a father with a daughter, I felt fortunate.
At that time, Sifnoi looked quite serious.
He looked at a map that seemed to depict a cross section of a cave and said, “Ugh… ” .” He groaned slightly.
I asked.
“Is there some problem?”
“Now we have almost arrived at Judas’ treasure trove hidden in the cave… ! But I can’t find the final passage…”
“It’s the last passage…”
“The treasure that Judas hid in the cave… ! All kinds of rare treasures… ! It should be those Sifnoi and Nymph thieves who receive it… ! But you can’t just take your time because bad guys get in the way… !”
Bad guys?
They go so far as to say that Sifnoi are bad guys.
When I felt interested, Sifnoi grew.
“They are bad guys who engage in human trafficking and kidnapping… ! The Sifnoi and Nymph thieves took advantage of the cave path they had worked so hard to dig and even set up a hideout in it… !”
Although the Sifnoi and Nymph thieves were fun and comical, they were skilled thieves. But are the Sifnoi and Nymph thieves a gang worth giving in to?
It seemed like a villain organization since they said they were engaged in human trafficking and kidnapping, but I was quite surprised that such a villain organization still exists in the world.
Is this like the last spark of the era of thieves?
Those guys were running wild near Frisia.
While I was busy relaxing at the mansion and playing with my children, the world seemed to have changed quite a bit.
“I think there will be a problem.”

“… Are you really okay? The children of Graham Academy… Kidnapping… !”
In a dark cave.
The shadows of several people appeared in the flickering torchlight.
The number of men is five.
They all wore black masks and looked like criminals.
Three girls were walking in front of the men. They were unique children with black hair, pink hair, and blonde hair.
The clothes she wore looked like a girl from a very rich family.
Zoro, the leader of the Dawning Corps, grabbed the black masked subordinate by the collar and gave him a small warning.
“Shh, be careful what you say. Kidnapping. We’re not kidnapping. Children… For a moment… I’m just taking it with me! And these people are not students at Graham Academy, they are just applicants for admission.”
“Yeah, but… In today’s world where it is difficult for thieves to survive, I don’t know if it is right to use children… The kids are nice and cute…”
“You idiot… ! In today’s world, you have to make a lot of money and wash your hands. “Na Won, how did the quality of thieves drop so much?”
Zoro blamed his foolish subordinates.
Even though Zoro was a thief for three years, Zoro’s subordinates were as foolish as if they were still rookies.
Ever since the rumor spread that nymphs would become the king of thieves and famous criminals wash their hands of them, thieves have been just as stupid.
Of course, Zoro was not a fool.
Because Zoro thought he was the only ‘real’ person left in this era.
In fact, his level is level 40 this year.
He surpassed the platinum level and was worthy of the title ‘master’.
‘My talent lies in stealing and stealing! Theft, which I’ve been working on almost my whole life, turns into a useless talent? I can’t tolerate it! The era of thieves will last forever! I will make it like that!’
Stand tall.
At that time, the black-haired girl stopped walking, looked back, and asked.
“Is there really an amazing treasure here? “It’s just a cave?”
“Yeah, that’s right. There is truly an incredible treasure. If you take that, getting accepted to Graham Academy is a given. “This guy will guarantee it.”
Zoro sweated profusely and did his best to please the children.
I was very servile, but there was nothing I could do.
When the children started to get excited, monsters like Morumoru or Marmar would come out and run amok.
Even though Zoro had become a level 40 master this time, he lacked the strength to deal with those furballs.
‘Originally, I wouldn’t have wanted to hang out with these kids. But what do you do when the cave passage you just discovered is so narrow that even children can barely crawl through it? If things continue like this, the nymphs will really take away the treasure!’
Zoro’s intuition spoke.
There is a ‘treasure’ beyond the passage that only children can pass through.
Zoro really wanted to get it today.
