Novel East
Chapter 528.1
Preparation (1)
After hearing the details regarding the Rogard Empire from Shen in the Demon Realm, we returned to the Empire. We also safely returned Alveiro to the prison without getting discovered by anyone.
Thanks to all the disguises and tricks we used, it appeared that our departure from the Rogard Empire went completely unnoticed.
It took a few days, but the Demon King decided to take Alveiro into custody under the guise of [Questioning], allowing him to move about somewhat freely, but with some restrictions. ๐ฃ๐ค๐ซ๐๐ก๐๐๐๐.๐๐ค๐
He was always escorted by a guard to prevent assassination.
The Demon King, who usually showed consideration for the interests of the humans, was not shy about exercising his authority at a time like this.
โThe enemyโs name was identified to a certain extent by Shen.
At least, the list of those who would obviously have harmful intentions was ready.
But the problem was โฆ how should we deal with that person.
After all, we would be dealing with people related to royalty. Key figures of a country, and probably others that were involved with them as well.
I was certainly the ruler of the Rogard Empire right now.
But I did not share the hearts and minds of its people.
Information about the Emperor being the one responsible for the great war had been hidden from the people of Rogard Empire, so if we were to touch the remaining members of the royal family now, Demon King and Shen believed that it would cause a huge uprising.
I also agreed with their analysis because I knew a fair amount about the history of my previous lifeโฆ so I could say that they were probably right in their predictions.
I could simply recall my lessons about the way Japan lost in a great war and how it was handled.
Basically, the imperial families were left untouched by the rest of the world.
It was clear that Alveiro understood that he had been framed, but he did not say anything about it at first to safeguard the royal familyโฆ
Since that was the case, this problem should be solved by the people of this country, but we were in the position that would be running their judiciary.
So, there was one thing that needed to be worked out first.
For that, what we required was time.
At first, it seemed like their aim was not really terrorist attacks, but to join the Magic Festival.
โฆInitially, the purpose was to create a [peaceful struggle] among many races, but the purpose changed a lot from that because of someone else.

โSighโฆ why do I have to worry about this kind of thing every day? Once again, I think that you guys are great. Even I, who do not have that much responsibility, became so busy right now, it makes me wonder just how much you actual rulers work.โ
I said this with a sigh in one of the reception rooms of the Rogard Empireโs imperial castle.
Reid, the King of Allysia Kingdom, the country where Nell worked as a hero, responded, โHaha, hmmm, Iโve been worrying about that as well, actually. I keep saying Iโm going to quit being the King, but because of everything that keeps happening, I keep missing the opportunity to do so.โ
He had come to this country just a few hours earlier on an airship for diplomatic purposes. ๐๐ธ๐๐ฎ๐ต๐ฎ๐ช๐ผ๐.๐ฌ๐ธ๐
Just to be safe, Nell also came along as an escort, and was with him until a few minutes ago, but now she had to leave for a while.
Reid had already said many times before that he wanted to resign from his position as King, but he had missed the opportunity to do so because he was caught up in many changes in the world.
