“Oh, you're Alexander, what are you doing here, young man?” Lydia greeted Alexander with a bright smile.

Alexander stepped forward and bowed lightly with narrowed eyes. “Nice to meet you, principal Lydia.”

"You know me?"

“Who does not know the principal who runs one of the most important academies in the empire,” Alexander answered warmly

Everyone knew that Lydia would come to the award ceremony

Lydia ran the second most important academy in the empire and was on the same level of power as Frederic

Of course, Alexander avoided mentioning that she ran the second most important academy so as not to make her feel uncomfortable. He decided to say that she runs one of the most important academies so that she would not feel embarrassed

“Hohoho, as I expected, you have a sweet tongue,” Lydia’s tone became sly. “Tell me how many girls you have captivated with your kind words.”

"..." What is this woman talking about?

Alexander looked at Frederic, who shook his head helplessly

Frederic decided to intervene because he knew that Lydia would not stop once she started. “Do you need anything?”

“I am here to pay the debt.” Alexander handed a card to Frederic

“You could have gone to the Student Affairs Center instead of coming here.”

Alexander smiled. “I am also here to obtain a permit to bring some materials into the academy.”

Frederic narrowed his eyes. He had a feeling that the matter was not as simple as Alexander said. “And what will you use these materials for?”

“I intend to start a sweets making project with the girls of the Home Economics Club.”

“...” Lydia looked at Alexander strangely

Why does Alexander join the Home Economics Club?

Stolen content alert: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences.

“Okay...” Frederic rubbed his mustache while his mind was working with full force to discover the trick in this matter

They are just some materials for making sweets, what could happen?

“Give me the paper to sign...” Frederic gave up and decided to go along with Alexander for now, at least until he knew what he was trying to do.

Alexander gave the form he obtained from the Student Affairs Department

This paper contained the materials that the student wanted to buy and their prices in the market

Frederic read the contents of the paper slowly, but his expression began to gradually change as he continued down the list

Frederic put the paper on the table and looked at Alexander. “What will you use these materials for?”

“In the confectionery industry,” Alexander answered patiently, not caring that this question was being asked of him for the second time

“May I know why you need materials worth two hundred thousand coins to make some sweets?” There was a blank look on Frederic's face and his feeling that something was wrong with this matter began to grow

Lydia's eyes widened when she heard the amount that Alexander intended to spend on this project. "Isn't this a little exaggerated? This project is not guaranteed to be successful, and then you will not be able to recover this amount."

"...." Did you believe that he wanted to buy materials for making sweets?... Frederic doubted that making sweets was not what Alexander intended to do.

Frederic could only shake his head. “I cannot allow you to bring this materials into the academy grounds without knowing how you will actually use them.”

“Didn’t I tell you that—”

Frederic quickly interrupted. "Do you want me to believe you?"

“...” Alexander stared at Frederic’s stubborn face

He expected to face some opposition from Frederic, so he prepared himself in a way that could make Frederic more comfortable

“If you are worried that I will play any trick, you can have the student council monitor my movements and how I will use these materials.”

Frederic fell into deep thought. Alexander's proposal was appropriate

Legally, he cannot prevent students from bringing any subject to the academy without a suitable excuse

But what is his excuse?

I feel that Alexander is planning something, so I prevented him from entering these materials

No one will buy this story

Therefore, this proposal was a compromise for both parties. Sylvia was the type who did not tolerate those who broke the law. If Alexander was planning something dangerous, she would hit him without hesitation

Frederic nods. "No problem in this case"

Alexander let out a relieved breath once he got Frederic's approval

Frederic grabbed the pen and was about to sign the paper, but when the pen was a centimeter away from the paper, Frederic's hand stopped and he looked at Alexander with a frown. “There are some strange ingredients on this list. Do desserts really need such ingredients?”

“I agree with you...” Lydia supported him, holding the list in her hands. “There are a lot of strange materials, what kind of recipe are you planning to use?”

“...” Alexander was silent for a moment

He didn't expect anyone to ask him for the dessert recipe

Alexander decided to present a story that would make them forget about these ingredients. “Actually, this is a recipe I learned from a bakery I used to visit as a child.”

“And what is this baker’s name?” Frederic asked suspiciously

“His name is Winston Hitler.” Alexander wanted to hit his forehead

But Frederic's question was surprising, and he had to answer quickly and without hesitation, So as not to show them that he has invented the name now

Therefore, all he could do was invent a name for a person who did not exist in this world, so that no problem would occur if someone searched for the owner of this name. This is what made him come up with this distorted name for people he knew in his previous life.

“He must be a good baker to make the young master of the Ford family like his baked goods like this.” Lydia showed obvious interest. “I think I'll go for some sweets when I pass Cairn city.”

“Haha...” Alexander laughed dryly as he looked away. "He's been dead for a long time"

“That's unfortunate,” Lydia became disappointed

“Yes...this is unfortunate,” Alexander wanted to end the matter before the matter developed. “Can I enter these materials now?”

Frederic signed the form and handed it to Alexander

"Thank you, and I'm sorry for any inconvenience I caused you," Alexander bowed and quickly left

“I wonder what kind of sweets this young man will make,” Lydia smiled as she looked at Alexander’s back as he walked away

"...." This is exactly what scares me.
