“Just listen to me first”
“Guh……just what is it?”
“Certainly, the present nation that King Rudolph had unified is untrustworthy. It’s because that country was painted with full of lies. Even forming an alliance, we don’t know when we will be stabbed in the back”
“Then, the more it’s necessary to think about it………”
“But if that person changes, the country will also change, too”
Everyone who heard those words was amazed. However, only Leowald fixed his eyes on that person…… staring at Regulus,
“Explain yourself, Regulus”
And demanded an explanation from him.
“As you wish. If that person changes, the country also changes. Do you understand, Lenion?”
“……….”
Looking at him who still remained silent,
“Listen here, the current king right now, for me who is still immature, is imbecility in itself. Hero summoning, and even breaking the conference……perhaps, they really are connected with the former demon king”
“Wha-!?”
“Hohou, so you noticed too, Regulus”
“Yes, otherwise tearing the conference apart won’t simply lead to the war breaking out. Probably, the former demon king negotiated with King Rudolf with some means and made a plan beforehand. Though we have got into it to take advantage, there should be someone who was set up to catch us off guard at any time”
Everyone was surprised, but only Leowald groaned with admiration.
“Simply because of the thought that they have planned something, rather than an alliance, they had called for a temporary truce. An agreement not to interfere with each other more than necessary”
“So?”
“King Rudolf, from the beginning, doesn’t want to form an alliance at all, simple as that. He thought of nothing but murdering the Demon King at that place. If it’s for the sake of the country, it is necessary to recommend forming an alliance, and he should have borrowed our hands to kill the Demon King. And yet, he didn’t make any objections against my demand at all, and for only killing the demon king, he even dispatched the heroes with us to act as a decoy to the [Demon Country]. That time, he already………No, he was already no longer a king for some time”
“…………”
“A grudge perhaps…… a personal grudge is clearly involved in this matter. Therefore, father isn’t assertive to make an alliance with them, right?”
“Ah, so it’s like that. But it’s also a fact that this is a good opportunity. With this, [Xaos] should be cleaned off and moved. However, even after they did this and that, one irregular had ended it all in a massive failure”
Of course, it’s Hiiro we are speaking of.
“A king who moves for such a personal grudge cannot lead a country to a better course. The country of the foolish king who doesn’t mind it’s people at all will eventually get corrupted later on”
“Is this the reason why you said something about the country changing, big brother?”
“Yes. The country will change. The people will have no choice but to change. Isn’t that right, Lenion?”
“………?”
“Not King Rudolf, but one who love his own country, his own people. If a person who loves peace above all stand on top, this will change the country”
“Is there such a human being?!”
“I don’t know”
Leowald have answered so.
“It has have never been managed in a political situation. However a person who has the power blowing it off completely must take the top, or the country won’t change”
