His heart was burning, but then a thought flashed through his mind.

'Wait, what if I make this an achievement?'

Raymond's eyes widened.

He had been diligently working on an academic presentation intended for the Tower of Healing.

While it wasn't particularly challenging, it was innovative, groundbreaking, and had the potential to positively impact many lives.

'Maybe I can get a good grade for this presentation...?'

[3 seconds left! Please choose!]

[2 seconds!]

[1 second!]

Raymond squeezed his eyes shut.

'Damn, I don't know!'

He had no idea what the academic presentation he was preparing would bring.

It could go nowhere and be buried.

But Raymond made a choice.

'Use monthly pass benefits, re-evaluate after one month grace period!'

[You used the 'monthly pass benefit'!]

[Academic evaluation will be re-examined after a one-month grace period!]

[Caution: Your 'Royal' status will disappear! After passing the Tower of Medicine, you will undergo a new grade review.]

Raymond sighed heavily.

'Did I do well?'

He wasn't sure.

But having made the choice, he could only do his best.

'Luckily, a month is plenty of time, and I have something in mind.'

Raymond got up from his seat.

There was something he needed to take care of before he could focus on his academic achievements.

Just then, there was a knock at the door.

"Marquis, His Majesty the King wants to see you."

He needed to collect his reward for solving smallpox.

At that time, the Kingdom of Houston.

The western lord, Marquis Terne, was talking with Remerton via communication port.

"Thank you for your hard work, Your Highness."

-... No, it's nothing..

Remerton had been assigned to Tiryu, the northern province of the Central King's Domain, to stabilize the flooding.

He had only been there a few days, but his face was not a happy one.

'Stabilizing a disaster zone. Not exactly my kind of work.'

Marquis Terne couldn't help but shake his head.

Remerton had always been more inclined toward academic pursuits, having gleaned his knowledge from books. Dealing with the challenges of a disaster area was an unfamiliar territory for him.

'Marquis Penin is the best at stabilizing the people...'

Marquis Terne shook his head in disbelief.

Yes, to be honest, Marquis Terne knew.
