What do you think after hearing “Triminal Mati” sentencing which was released due to bribes of money and social status he had?
Disappointed?
Do you feel like the world is not safe anymore?
Or.. discomfort because the human-bodied monster was released?
Well, I think so too.
One day has passed, Chiyuki and Mercedes are bringing back a line of people dressed in luxurious clothes. Looking at the condition of his clothes filled with jewelry, they seemed to be new nobles who filled empty benches after the war.
Their faces and ages are quite interesting to me, it's because...
They looked like Orcs wearing human clothes.
A huge belly that exceeded the waist circumference of his pants, the hasty breath of stepping, and the satisfaction of status that danced in their hands.
“Well, this is so disgusting. But.. isn't this the new nobleman?” ask me.
Mercedes looked at me with a smile and replied to my question.
“Master Karl, we had a little trouble because the entire prison of the Kingdom of Flora was only filled with people who rejected the new policy.”
“Ah, history repeated for the second time?”
“Em!” Mercedes nodded.
“For that, Chiyuki-sama did a small improvisation. Rather than executing the wrong target. We are looking for a worthy noble for execution.”
“Yeah, I've guessed this. Hearing the silly question from the Crown Princess of Flora Kingdom alone made me wonder about the condition of their kingdom. So.. this?”
“Yes, Master Karl. They are far below the rubbish of society. For some reason they like to demean the people with unreasonable taxes. Wouldn't it be better if they were wiped out?”
Managing political policy in other kingdoms is no longer our business. Right now, we are just focused on building the region and defending it. Without us noticing, it seemed like many eyes were eyeing our territory.
Revenge is hard to escape, it seems our bond with the Kingdom of Flora is like water and fire.
The report that Chiyuki gave contained the scheme of invading the Flora Kingdom by infiltrating our territory. All funds raised were sourced from these nobles. As an additional note, they are opposition nobles hostile to the former nobles of the Flora Kingdom who took refuge in our territory.
In the end, our war continued and opened a new chapter.
A new king was crowned and a new policy hostile to the people ensued.
The situation is back in chaos..
Of course, that's none of our business!
Finally, when other kingdoms face problems. We can relax and enjoy their stage drama.
Waita minute!
We are also militaristic, right?
The construction of our armed forces is even complete, so..
This region is no different from the Flora Kingdom?
Why do I feel. If this new King is gonna be so annoying.
“Mercedes..I guess.we need to observe the Kingdom of Flora even longer. This one mouse looks unyielding. Although his subordinates are like this, but the idea is enough to cover the losses experienced by the Kingdom of Flora.”
“Uhmn?” Mercedes was a little confused.
“Kingdom Flora, it seems. they are trying to sharpen back the fangs that have been blunt.”
“But, what can they do?” ask Mercedes.
I did not reply to Mercedes' questions but instead gave Chiyuki a thick report paper.
Mercedes read it slowly, his eyes moving carefully to digest the contents of the long information report.
“I-This?!” Mercedes is aware of the situation.
This noble's rotten actions and the reason why they were left alive..
It was because the King of Flora Kingdom nurtured them.
“Master Karl, I guess. I know who is capable of making a scenario like this.”
“Uhuh..” I replied with a light answer.
“Kakak, why do you still like to play a kingdom. Was the massacre that was committed 300 years ago just a toy for you?”
Huh uh?
Whahuh?
I didn't hear wrong, did I?
Mercedes' sister?
Whatisthis? why did my body suddenly feel a bone-chilling chill.
