Chapter 550 – [God Is Watching!]
Through Korma Rem’s visit, I was certain who had sent the assassin who triggered the day I was awakened as a reincarnated person.
Actually, it was a strange thing. Because of all the people I met, there was no one who could assassinate me.
The most influential person on the line of suspicion was the empress or the second prince. However, even though the empress killed my mother, she didn’t try to kill me (she must have tried to avoid suspicion), and the second prince had no interest in me before she started messing around.
I didn’t care, so I ignored it. Yes, there is no reason to kill me.
That’s why the assassin’s back was judged to be a third force, and it was put on hold for a while, overlapping with the kengpan.
But if the White Church is the target here, I’m quite worried about what to do!
“Majesty?”
“Ah, thank you. Thanks to you, all my worries are solved.”
“I don’t know what it is, but I’m glad you’re happy!”
Your affinity for Korma has risen slightly. Since he doesn’t do any tricks and is a simple death god, there was no reason to hate him in the first place.
For now, it’s safe to say that demons are friendly. It’s still too early to consider the black body itself as an ally, but at least thanks to the oracle he gave, the demons will be friendly to me until a new oracle comes down.
“Is the remaining treatment of the White Church?”
If you want to, you can go in right now and tear them to pieces.
But it’s still heartbreaking. In one case, in fact, the culprit was not the White Church! If I come to the same conclusion, what I did is the result of massacring innocent people.
No matter how reckless I am, there are no testimonies and no witnesses. Instead, if there is clear evidence, it is innocent and nabal, and they will all be replaced, but judgment should not be hasty.
As the Great Demon King, why do I personally see and judge the civilization I am going to judge? Earth is where I lived, so even if it’s nothing to look at, I looked around in the case of Tiv Civilization.
“The White Religion…Ah, you mean the descendants of the Holy Empire?”
“Maybe it’s because they’re demons, so they bring up quite old stories?”
“Even if the time difference is doubled, it’s not that old. At most, it’s from my grandfather’s days.”
The White Religion was called the Holy Empire in the past, and it was called a dual empire that divided the continent with the Frontier Empire.
The northern part of the continent was ruled by the Frontier Empire, but the land of the current heterogeneous tribes was ruled by the Holy Empire.
However, as you know, the first king of a kingdom led the slaves in an uprising and caused a slave revolution. Meanwhile, the Frontier Empire accepted their revolution and the Holy Empire rejected it.
The result was the fall of the Holy Empire. However, those who survived as an empire flocked to the southwest of the continent and established the White Church.
However, the mentality of the days of the Holy Empire is still the same. Despite the fact that humans aren’t the only ones who believed in the white goddess, the attitude of ignoring the different races was still strong.
“I should have caught him and asked him behind the scenes. At least, I would have been pissed off if there was a testimony.”
It was a mistake to kill him instantly because he was about to take a step back from the reincarnated awakening. To be honest, I would have killed it without even thinking about it if it was right before I searched for it.
“Let’s put this story aside for now and come back to your story. So, what is your self-fantasy, how did you manage to escape from other surveillance?”
“My self-fantasy is [A dreamer who walks in my dreams]. If I use it, I can escape from the surveillance of my self-fantasy and hide myself.”
“Isn’t that a self-fantasy specialized in assassination?”
“It hides the traces of my sounds and smells, but it dissolves the moment I come in contact with others.”
“It’s a skill that will kill you if you can’t kill it in one hit. No, even so, I can’t use it unless I’m alone.”
If not an assassination, it was like a self-fantasy that had an excellent effect on information gathering. Moreover, the fact that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Demon World was not a hukou, and that it came this far by avoiding many self-fantasies proved that.
Suddenly, I checked Korma’s appearance.
Soaring eyes in short pink hair. The lines are thick for a woman, the uvula does not protrude for a man, and the voice is thin. The overall evaluation was neutral.
“Are you a man or a woman?”
“Ah… A dreamer is basically born bisexual, and through secondary sex characteristics, male and female bodies are determined.”
“Me, Futanari?”
It was not neuter, but bisexual, which meant having both male and female characteristics. Ruri… That’s also a big deal if you heard of Yongruri here! I was just shouting.
“But the fact that you haven’t developed secondary sexual characteristics means you’re too young for a dreamer. Is that right?”
“Yes, because I was able to take part in this mission thanks to this self-fantasy. Originally, a young dreamer like me cannot cross over to the continent yet.”
Anyway, Korma came to me by revelation. However, I have no intention of moving according to the revelation.
What the fuck is God forcing me? Do you throw a chest punch?
Even if it doesn’t fly like a normal hit, it can fly like a heavy attack. It’s a special move. Even if the opponent is a god, if it’s not at God-Ruri-Ruri level, it’s one shot.
But do I have to listen to the gods here? It can’t be.
“But what the black telegraph said by revelation. ‘A man born from the lineage of the empire will become the Great Demon King and save you,’ but what kind of salvation do you all want here?”
Salvation is only relative.
The salvation of the person I was torturing also usually changes from ‘save me!’ To ‘kill me!’ It is salvation that changes according to one’s position, situation, environment, etc.
But to me, a human being, it is the salvation of the demons. The easiest way is, of course, to speak of the race… Ah, this is a judgment call. Sending a hook without pain is, on the one hand, mercy.
“We want an environment where we can live without struggle. Like a prosperous continent, we want a world where we can get what we need without fighting.”
“Is the demon realm devastated?”
“The continent of Pandemonium we live in is large enough to be similar to the continent here, but there are not many places where you can actually farm. So there are people who starve.”
“Um…”
“As now, we are replenishing food resources through exchanges with the continent, but the best way is to become self-reliant.”
Please be my salvation and conquer the continent! If he had said the same bullshit, he would have killed all of them and then the body of black, but that was a natural greed.
Is it too much to ask not to starve at all? When you’re full and your back is warm, you can turn your eyes to other things and relax, but it seems that the Demon Realm is a difficult place to have that.
That’s why you have no choice but to fight with limited resources… In the end, the world will be dominated by the strong.
Susanoo’s story suddenly comes to mind.
He said that the reason why Japanese people’s personality is so damned is that if they fight and fight in a country where there are many earthquakes and farming is difficult, of course they have no choice but to be like that. Unfavorable environments, even terrain with nowhere to escape. It’s because everything is a negative factor.
I wonder if it’s similar to the Demon World… Of course, that’s not a reason to shield, so the history of invasion can’t be dismissed as nonexistent, but if you reflect on it, it’s a one-time chance.
The reason why Japan was judged in my previous life was because I didn’t show any attitude of self-reflection.
“Uhm…Should I go to Pandemonium later and decide for myself?”
“We also thought that you wouldn’t save us right now. But it’s enough that you look at us positively.”
“Then go back and tell them that. It won’t be in the near future, but at least I’ll go to the Pandemonium within a few years to see and judge for myself. To be honest, I’m too busy going to the Pandemonium right now.”
Demons who have passed from the demon world to the continent become weak, but on the contrary, humans do not become stronger by passing from the continent to the demon world. No, rather, the environment is different, so it weakens.
The opponent is a full-power demon, and this one is in a weakened situation… Usually, I don’t think about going to the demon realm.
There is no reason to give up the advantage of a home ground in the first place. It’s just that I like it better because it’s a good environment to play around with.
A society with its own laws respects them, but if it’s the basic law, it’s enough if you do it as it is.
“Thank you, Your Highness. I will go back and tell my people about this.”
Korma went out the window she came in and disappeared. His self-fantasy, which is hard to find except for mine, melted into the darkness of the night.
Hmmm, I feel like I have a lot to do.
* * *
First, let’s organize my schedule.
I don’t know if it’s normal, but now that I’m the 3rd prince and there are only 10 people on the continent called the Continental Ten, I can’t help but be behind schedule.
But it’s not just a simple schedule, but if I had to organize what I want to do and where I want to go in the future…
First of all, when I was 10 years old, I entered the academy.
Visit the delusional land of the Bistra estate.
A visit to the kingdom.
Visit the Great Forest of Urca.
Visit to the devil.
Lastly, going to the white church country and figuring out the evidence of these bastards is a roughly certain schedule.
Quite a lot, considering the amount of time it takes. It was a job that had to be scheduled at least on a yearly basis, not a month or two. So, I wanted to finish at least one or two things before entering the academy.
The academy is divided into 3 years, 6 years, and 9 years depending on the department. No matter how short you learn, it means you have to stay there for 3 years.
First of all, if you think about urgent matters…… Are you going to visit the delusional land of the Bistra territory?
It’s always at the forefront there, so there’s no doubt there’s not enough hands. So you should go and help out. Because I owe a lot to Lady Beastra.
“There are so many places to visit. Then, wouldn’t it be better to visit our Urca Grand Forest first, and visit the Han Kingdom and the White Church State later?”
“Do you have any reason?”
“Lurikies-sama’s self-fantasy [Dragon’s Paradise] Is a floating island that wanders and floats on the sea. It travels all over the continent on the coast. This time, while anchoring in the sea area near the Great Forest of Urca, my sister also attended the academy. I was going to enter school, so I thought it was just right.”
“Aha”
Archione’s words made sense to me. If the island itself moves and moves around, rather than just having a fixed residence, I could go to the places I want to visit while attending the academy without moving.
Besides, from Archione’s point of view, it must be quite appetizing to motivate her sister. There is truth in both this side and that side.
If so, it means that you can stop by all but Garuna Highlands, which are located inland, so you can go to the Great Forest of Urca on the way to the academy, pick up Archione’s sister, enter the academy, and visit the White Church and Han Kingdom while traveling around the continent.
If the academy is good, let’s go. Honestly, that one is the least urgent. It’s not like there’s a crisis right now.
“Thank you for the advice. Then I’ll see you later on the day I enter the academy.”
“I hope His Highness becomes good friends with that child.”
She seems to care about her little sister. Besides, Archione is obviously the next leader of the elves. Even if the lifespan of an elf is long, having them enrolled in an academy rather than an imperial school means that they are far from being in power.
I’m also going to the academy in that sense. Even now, if you take a peek, there are people who want to push me to be the emperor, but if I go to the academy, even that will fall.
“Personally, I also wanted to enter the academy, but because it’s a seat… I hope that at least my little sister will come to see the wide world.”
“Her sister would love to have her good sister”
“He’s a tomboy who often fights over trivial matters.”
“It’s like that between her original siblings.”
“Oh, is His Highness like that too?”
To be honest, right now our brothers are all close except for the 2nd prince. Even the 2nd prince can get along with her if she just fixes her personality…… What can I do, look up.
Anyway, the quickest way to learn more about the academy was to ask Leticia, who was the head of the General Department. She asked often, but now that she has a clear plan, it would be better to give a brief explanation or something she needs to know.
First of all, while listening to the restaurant business report this quarter, I decided to do the necessary work and ask questions. I have to work.
“The restaurant has been running well, with revenues up about 13 per cent compared to the previous quarter.”
“It’s nice. But I think there’s a limit to that too.”
“Yes, after all, a restaurant is a business that people visit and run.
“I’ll have to open a restaurant in the building that the first princess gave me the other day. Oh, of course, it’s not a third royal branch, but a different restaurant.”
“Are you talking about the common people?”
“Even common people should eat delicious food”
I will put into practice the plan conceived earlier. Now that we have extra funds, we can run the business completely without investing this time.
Create a second group and give the cooks a sense of improvement to encourage them to rise to the first group. And when enough people gather, we should open a branch there.
It feels like the business is growing subtly. Well, I still have to do it.
“Oh, and Your Highness… I’m sorry, but can I use my vacation this time?”
“However, he said he wasn’t happy!!!!”
“Yes?!?!”
“Oh, I’m just kidding. I’m not that old-fashioned to stop saying I’m on vacation. But can I ask about the reason for the vacation?”
The reason I deliberately asked such a thing was because I read something in her eyes.
I’m the kind of person who takes care of a bonus when my person says they’re going on vacation without even asking, so they can rest well. But I can’t deliberately ask.
“……It’s a personal family situation.”
“Hmm”
It may be ambiguous to say that I am quick-witted, but I know women’s hearts. Even if it’s not a woman in the old days, I hope that you will eventually catch it.
If Leticia really wanted to go quietly, she would have secretly put the vacation application in my documents and signed it before going. But she has spoken directly to me.
It means to hold on. Or it means asking for help.
“What’s up?”
Come to think of it, it seems that she hadn’t heard of Leticia’s old story.
I guess I’ll need a car. It’s going to be a long story.
