The next morning,
The Koutachi Kingdom was turned upside down.
In just one night, Javier and Kujo, were arrested on charges of rebellion, and it was natural for the leaders to be greatly surprised.
Although they had expected a bloody battle for the successorship in the future, who would have known that it would be all over by the time they woke up?
The leaders were divided in their opinions.
Finally, a rightful successor has been born into our Koutachi family!
Thats really fortunate! Hahaha!
The majority of the leaders welcomed the news.
And that was because there were not so many people who had accepted of Javier and Kujo becoming the Master of the Koutachi family in the first place.
The problem was the Not so many people.
This is bad This is why people should queue up well.
Should I run away now?
Ah It must be my rotten luck, Why did I join them.
Those who actively supported Javier and Kujo were terrified to hear the news.
Since Javier and Kujo had been punished, they could not be safe either.
Although not immediately, it was obvious that they would soon be in the same situation.
Good morning!
Kukuku! Are you not feeling well? Your faces dont look good since morning! Did you have a bad sleep last night?
Thanks to that, those who supported Javier and Kujo were subtly ridiculed while attending the morning meeting.
Given the circumstances, they became like mute honey-eating bears and couldnt say anything.
Even though their throats were parched and dry, they couldnt hear the mockery from the opposition party.
Moreover, the scene at the morning meeting was too shocking for them to be moved by such trivial matters.
Conrad, the king of the kingdom and head of the family, was not waiting for them.
Please come in.
Otto greeted cabinet members while sitting on a throne.
Thats right! Conrad was nowhere to be seen.
The meaning was very clear.
Although the formal coronation had not yet taken place, Conrad had fully recognized Otto as his successor.
Otherwise, he would not have relinquished the throne.
And before Otto, Javier and Kujo was writhing while bound tightly.
Oof! Oof! Oof! Oof! (You b**tard! If youre going to kill me, do it quickly!)
Ooof! Ooof! Ooof! Ooof! Ooof! (How much more are you going to humiliate us! You son of a bitch!)
Javier and Kujo used foul language, but thanks to Ottos intervention, they could not communicate properly.
Even the right to speak was taken away from Javier and Kujo simply because Otto did not want to hear a single word of nonsense.
I will be leading the morning meeting today in place of my grandfather. Please bear with me.
Otto apologized to the cabinet members and gave a quick glance.
Then, Camille stepped forward and recited the exaggerated charges against Javier and Kujo.
and sentence the guilty parties, Javier and Cujo, to public execution.
After the verdict was announced,
Honestly, I know there are some here who have been close to the criminals,
Otto looked directly at those who had made a deal with Javier and Kujo.
Chills ran down the spines of people.
Is this how were going to die?
Were going to die
But Ottos words were the opposite of what they had expected.
However, given the circumstances, His Highness has said that he will not punish you for the mistakes you made in the past. He understands that he doesnt want to cut off the great Koutachi familys lineage. We are all members of the same Koutachi family after all. So lets forget the past and focus on restoring the glory of the great Koutachi family. Do you understand?
Your Highness is merciful!!!
As soon as Otto finished speaking, the leaders all fell to their knees in unison and bowed.
And let the criminals be executed in front of the entire population. This concludes our meeting this morning.
Your Highness is merciful!
Oh, by the way, Otto added.
If anyone wants to show me their gratitude, I might have some time after lunch.
At that moment.
-Snap!
Camilles face contorted.
This crazy guy! What if he gets caught taking a bribe like that!
How will he get away with this?
***
Conrad was very satisfied after hearing the results of the morning meeting.
It was beyond his expectations.
Otto had set an example by executing Javier and Kujo, publicly, instilling fear in those who supported them.
But that was it.
Otto did not execute even those who supported Javier and Kujo.
Was Otto merciful?
No way!
Otto only gave them a chance because he was afraid that the power of the Koutachi clan would weaken.
Since the succession situation was completely tilted, there was not even a 0.0001% chance that those who supported Javier and Kujo would rebel, so there was no reason to punish them unnecessarily.
Moreover, thanks to executing Javier and Kujo publicly instead of Conrad, Otto firmly imprinted his position on leadership.
Now the true heir of the Koutachi clan is known to the world to be Otto.
Is it that good?
Ah! Good or not! Can it be better than this? Kahahaha!
Conrad laughed loudly in response to the question from the captain.
Didnt we capture the ones who left and the family members very well after creating a position for them? He is excellent in strategy and has unparalleled political power!
I think so too.
Is that all? Since he even gained the power of the invincible emperor, the problem of insufficient force is just a matter of time! The restoration of our familys former glory is also just a matter of time.
I think so too. Congratulations, Your Highness.
Kakaka!
Conrad was completely captivated by Otto in just a weeks time.
At first, he was infinitely cold to Otto, but now he had become a more reliable grandfather than anyone else.
