Ex Strongest Swordsman Longs For Magic In Different World

724 One Conclusion And One Suggestion.

- The emperor had lost his leg from the Empire of Upitel, and five days earlier was about to pass.

Although initially there was a lot of confusion, I have been told that I have regained some calm, especially since it became well known that something does not change...

As a matter of fact, I haven't seen Soma with my own eyes that he was confused or calmed down, so the feeling is thin as a matter of fact.

Well, that's exactly why people from other countries can't walk around the city in grandeur in this situation, so I guess there's no choice.

Where there was any reason or history, it didn't make any difference that the person we were wearing as emperors was gone.

Given that there will also be anxiety, it is not a mistake to order the Somas to be locked in because it does not provide extra stimulation.

And neither did the Somas want to inflict any more futile confusion on the Empire, and there was nothing more to this one than to silently obey than the Somas got involved.

Incidentally, the emperor's treatment is supposed to be a loss of legs, because it does not dismantle the empire.

The people were confused as a result of the incorrect transmission of the area, but the Empire plans to continue.

No one has succeeded the Emperor, but blood has not been cut off in the true sense.

They decided that for a while it would be vacant, and they would all work hard to support the Empire.

It should be said, of course, that it is the Lambert who runs at the head of it.

Though I do not deserve to inherit the throne, it draws the blood of the royal family and, above all, because I feel most responsible in this matter.

Alternatively, although we have also heard stories that in time we will succeed to the throne if it has nothing to do with qualifications and so on... it will depend on everyone in the future empire and so on.

At least, I'm only sure that's not about Soma getting involved.

There is one other thing that Soma and the others are still in the Empire.

Rather, it's bigger this way.

"-Okay, it's been five days, and let's go...! The concubine is going to the city......!

And when I was thinking about the past and the future, I inadvertently heard such a voice.

If you turn your gaze, you are naturally a woman with purple blue hair and eyes there... almost simultaneously, multiple sighs are exhaled.

"The emperor's deputy, he left it to me."

"Yes, I'll take care of it, emperor's deputy."

"I don't want to be left to you... well, I just have to be left to you, huh? So, silly sister."

"Hmm? What's the matter, brother? My concubine's going to the city, so she's busy?

"Discard that plan now. You're still here today."

A woman with an instantaneous stunned look - Victoria, but Lamberto, who was supposed to be the emperor's deputy, overlaps words mercilessly.

No, I can't.

"Why, brother...!? My concubine put up with me for five days...!?

"If you show up in about five days, the city's gonna be havoc again, right? What do you think you're supposed to lose your legs on the surface and death on the back? Well, most people know anyway, but at least wait a month."

"January......!? I can't wait...! The concubine wants to go now...!

With such an exchange sidelined, Soma decided to take her leisure time to spin her thoughts on how this was happening.

This exchange will last for a while anyway, if we don't do that much, we'll have no choice.

Anyway, this has been a classic exchange for four days now.

As you can see, Victoria is alive. Although she's pimped on the contrary, she's supposed to be dead as an external treatment.

Because this is more convenient in many ways.

It is assumed that what has been done so far has been done at the discretion of the emperor, and even by executing him in the form of letting him take responsibility, which weakens the rebellion from various foreign countries at all and also facilitates a policy shift.

And most importantly...

"I still don't know how 'Arre' recognizes this one and how it works. If you do it badly, you're gonna throw the people into a worse situation than ever before. If you don't like that, listen to me."

"Mm, mmm, that's..."

"I don't know, because there's a little responsibility here, too. I didn't check the situation, I 'slaughtered' it without question. At that time, I thought it was best, and for now, I thought it was necessary to resolve the situation as soon as possible... but I didn't think I knew where I was."

"Well, isn't that what you have to do? At least you didn't make the wrong decision trying to end that situation sooner... apart from that, I have something to say."

"Hmm? What is it?

"You've made up your mind! Oh, if you're going to do that, tell me first, right?!? How anxious do you think we were then?

What Aina is saying is that she probably stopped Lamberto and slashed and tore Victoria after treating her.

Sure, it was sudden without time to explain... but I can't help that one.

"Nevertheless, I couldn't have explained it on that occasion, could I?

"I know that, but still...!

"It's irrational."

"Well, I know what you're trying to say. My concubine didn't think I could do that either.... No, honestly, I still don't believe it. No way, such as breaking the contract between a concubine and a demon."

"Besides, you didn't even know it all, did you?

"Yes, but just because I" saw "it clearly didn't feel good. I thought it would at least be better if things got better, and that was enough."

"Well, as a result, everyone, including Mr. Lambert, has returned to normal..."

Still doesn't make any difference that I'm unhappy, shrugging my shoulders at Aina staring at me with her jito eyes.

I couldn't help myself if they told me.

By the way, everyone's back to normal means as it is.

Lambert's behavior that day, not everything, including before that.

In other words, the martial officers were disgusted with Victoria, the civilians favored Victoria, and the people admired Victoria.

Now there is no gathering of civilians where Victoria went to the dining room, and there is no coming to the dining room in the morning itself to see Victoria in the first place.

I haven't been outside since, but I'm sure the same thing will happen in the city.

Victoria walking away will not bring people together, but on the contrary, she may be openly flaunted.

But that's normal.

Victoria was originally hated by civilians and the people.

And that was the beginning of this case.

Victoria was doing everything for the people.

Even so, their people hated them, and that is why Victoria wished.

To be liked by the people.

Victoria had the art of making it possible.

Skills inherited only by the Emperor, reason of edge.

It seemed to be perceived as a force for entering into and complying with contracts, but that is only a secondary element.

They can no longer break their covenants and promises because strong fringes are made, and they are inherently the power to preside over the fringes between people, as their name suggests.

Nevertheless, apparently it also took some kind of protection because it was too strong as it was.

It was only possible to use that power in contracts that were supposed to be secondary effects.

The demon that he made a deal with Victoria apparently poked him there.

It was decided that the emotions from the people would be favored as consideration for entering into a covenant with the devil.

Regardless, it's Victoria's skill to actually do it, but Victoria didn't seem to mind if the results were the same.

That's how the contract was signed and the power of reason activated...... but it didn't work out exactly as I thought it would because I tried to use it backgammon.

Although favors were gained from the people, it was a consequential story, and what happened in reality was that the emotions that could be directed at me would be reversed.

That is why Victoria was liked by the people and the civilians, and hated by the martial officers.

but even though I used the power of reason, in the end that's a backgammon usage.

If we don't even have a contract with the devil, the effects of reason will disappear.

So Soma slashed and tore the covenant, and all was restored.

It is also basically because of Victoria and Lamberto's normal dealings.

It seems that Lamberto is called his older brother because he is no longer an emperor... but it is a story that has nothing to do with the Somas because it is about the royal family.

Whatever.

"The emotion we were pointing at was the reverse, but what we thought had not changed itself. I was in favor of working hand in hand with the Demon King to destroy the world, and the people could not forgive Victoria for making a more painful choice for themselves than it was for itself. Civilians wanted to choose not to destroy the world, but I didn't think it was likely. So, because my emotions turned over, I twisted and twisted the result five days ago, but... cut off the fundamentals? This is the Demon King... No, your power. Things we couldn't believe."

Various emotions seemed to have been put on the gaze directed with such words.

Probably apologies, envies, etc., but Soma shrugs her shoulders without saying anything.

Believing in people you don't even know well is not something you can do.

Then they may not have made the right decision, but I'm sure they weren't wrong.

"In the end, they're going to help us, and that will be enough."

"Right. We didn't... we didn't get hurt, either, but it wasn't that bad. Well, not as much as I care."

"Mm-hmm. Considering that we got this result, it wouldn't be a problem"

"Don't help me if you say so."

The story around here also involves an earlier shift in the empire's policy… In short, the empire stopped taking sides in destroying the world.

It seems that the world has decided to bet on the possibility of not perishing, or that it has decided to believe in the real soma -

"Damn, you're responsible."

"It's all about you anyway, so you're not gonna change what you do, are you?

"Well, you're right."

Either way, if you're not going to die, you're not going to destroy the world.

Then it didn't make any difference.

"The strength is enviable from a concubine. If only the concubine could... No, I just said it."

"Ma, for now, I think we should talk more constructive than that. That's why we're gathered here today."

Even more so now, it was a room in the Imperial Castle where the Somas were now.

This is the room Lamberto uses as his office room.

And we don't come all the way to a place like that to have a chat or anything.

As I said earlier, the biggest reason the Somas are staying here.

That is.

It was to talk about the devil who was supposed to be here.

"So, you figured something out?

"... right. I'll conclude, but I didn't know anything. There's really one thing that's going to lead to me."

"I couldn't find one trace, or... uhm, considering the concubine did hear her voice, I just thought she was hiding herself somewhere. That's what I said."

"... Speaking of which, you could certainly only hear that voice between the throne and the gaze, right? Did that make any sense?

"Hmm?... No, what do you think? I just heard that concubines can simply interact there, so I thought it was something like that..."

"... No, I told you to kill Victoria between the thrones, and I told you to set fire to it."

"Ho, did you... I mean, in the original plan, I was going to take Victoria's flesh there, is that it?

Regarding Victoria's contract with the devil, however, the contract was not a one-way demand.

Some things the devil was demanding of Victoria, as Victoria was trying to gain favor from the people.

That's Victoria's flesh.

It's just that after the devil's side is ready, we're still ahead of us, and even if we don't have to do anything more than tie it up for reason, the contract will automatically be fulfilled when the time comes.

"If you think about it, there was still something over there, should you think about it? Well, it's already gone."

"Right. We've already searched over there, and we've confirmed that nothing happened. Probably got lost in the fire and wiped out the evidence when he realized he couldn't."

"That's the evidence that erased the evidence... but you couldn't find that?

"Unfortunately, yeah. Maybe it was just so easy to do something about it."

"Well, from what I've heard, he seems to have been a very careful devil. However, there are a few things that don't really come down to it."

Although I've already heard the story that Lamberto moved because he was instigated by the devil, that's oddly just a hit.

It is cluttered if you think it is cautious, or the impression of the devil listening to the story seems uncertain.

"Hmm... seemed oddly wary about Soma, but does that matter... or maybe it was a change of policy as well. Of other demons, maybe."

"The policy of other demons, is it?

"Uhm.... Speaking of which, hadn't we talked about this yet? I haven't heard the details, but it seems the devils are moving under a different policy. The ultimate purpose is the same, but the process is different? For example, was the devil who approached his concubines so that he could perish contentedly?

"... I hardly ever heard about that area because I barely dealt with it, but surely the words you've whispered to me can perish with satisfaction as it were,"

"It just seemed like we were going to end up squeezing each other under that policy because that meant we could decide whose policy was best in the first place."

"... what is it. It's not like we're doing anything good."

"You're going to do that from the other side. And it's not really wrong."

At least, from the world's point of view, it's the Somas who are wrong.

Though they are called demons and such, they are surely moving for the world.

Then it's also so strange that we want to make the process better if we can.

"... if you ask me that, you're right"

"I don't think you have to convince me, do you? In the end, there is no difference between incompatibility. More than that, what is it because that has changed the policies of other demons? I don't think it makes any difference what you do."

"There's something I can't accept," he said. I was just wondering if something had happened in that relationship, so I'm not being honest with you. "

"Hmm, is it... well, whatever it is, something's happened, it's hard to think about it... it's a little too little judgment material to think about what it is"

"Right. It's just, you know, that might work out soon, too, right? It's a different story, isn't it?"

"Is there any clue?

"Sort of. Even so, I'm guessing from what I said... there are three specific instructions I've been given. One thing, killing Victoria. Two, that is between the thrones, to do while baking in flames. And the third... is to move the whole army towards Veritas."

"... that's quite obvious again. I'm so tempted to suspect it's too obvious to have another purpose. But I see, that's why you had only that many soldiers who came to that room. No one was very strong, and I was wondering where the majority of them were once..."

"Hmm... I certainly didn't think I'd see the soldiers at all... but didn't you just let them go back?

"The person I told you about is the other person. Besides, the only ones who actually moved it were the ones in the castle. If you really moved the whole army, you'd stimulate it if nothing happened, but you'd still have to scout."

I hear that Veritas is currently in a civil unrest.

It is rather normal for an empire bordering the border to see how things are going.

But on the other hand, I don't think I can afford to give you a little something else because you're in a civil unrest.

"I think they said it would take ten years or something to calm down... and no, is that what it is...?

"Thinking about something that the devil cares about, is limited... but the Demon King who should care most is already here, and the Holy Capital is no good intervening in Veritas. If so..."

"... the remaining vigilant opponents are demons who argue with each other."

I think we were talking about the demons moving out still ahead... but that's not even now.

No, or maybe the devil himself doesn't move and just says he's going to give it a little bit of a whirl, but whatever it is, apparently we can't just leave this place yet.

You can't just go back to the Holy Capital here.

"Hmm... the next possibility before one is completely cleaned up, is it? I can't help it."

Having demons in the first place meant that there was a seal of evil gods nearby, and I feel like it might be a little too close.

But again, I can't help it.

"By the way, how soon have you heard from me?

"Well... that's unspeakable. If anything happens, it won't be strange to be here any time soon, and if nothing happens, it'll take more."

"Well, you know what?"

"It's impossible to contact them at the same rate as if it wasn't an emergency, rather than limited resources."

"Hmm..."

That was an understandable story, but just because it was understandable doesn't mean what happens to the status quo.

If you look out the window somehow, there's a blue sky there as if nothing's going on.

Looking at such a sight, now what would happen, Soma exhaled one breath, thinking about what lay ahead.
