Demon Emperor Yuki laughed mockingly and continued his words.

"Oh, I'll tell you one more thing, all the soldiers and senators who were cooperating with you have already been cracked apart by the activities of Renugil, the Demon King's right-hand man, and this country's intelligence organization. Your faction is now finished. All that's left for you to do now is to stay in prison and watch this country start to run smoothly without you." (Yuki)

ADLT 531.2

In the Rogard Empire, the prime minister did not have as much authority as in other countries, as the emperor had controlled most of the country for generations.

The prime minister had a position of supporting the Emperor, albeit only minimally. Still, even with minimal authority, the Prime Minister was still the second most powerful person in the country, after the Emperor.

After the defeat in the war, however, the current Prime Minister, who had demonstrated his ability as a han...

--Power.

A torrent of compressed power.

A storm of attack, so strong that even the word "gale" would be too lukewarm to describe it, and it was raging in the Senate Building after the evacuation had been completed and the Imperial Guards and the suspected Senate President Cyrus changed location.

The one wielding the power that could kill anyone caught in the storm was the Demon Emperor Yuki.

"Hahah! Weak, weak, I was...

We were brought to a good smelling parlor.... It had the aroma of an elegant rose.

I was sitting on a bright red sofa, having tea facing Gordon-san.

Next to me was Gilles, and next to Gordon-san was Gilbert. While we were walking to the parlor, Gordon-san told me that his son's name was Gilbert.

But why was he present?

I wish I could talk to Gordon-san alone.

Perhaps reading my thoughts, Gordon-san chuckled.

"You don't need to be around Gil?"

Bear-san meets Ronne

Having locked the Knights in the Bear Cage, we sneakily headed toward the mansion to avoid being seen from the windows.

"Yuna-san, the walls are too high." (Noa)

Naturally, the mansion was surrounded by high walls to prevent intrusion. I could use magic to build a staircase, but I would also have to build one on the other side to get down.

So...

Bear-san Fighting Knights

I stood before the Knights.

One of the knights asked, "What?"

Following that, another knight reacted, "Bear?"

"What are you doing here, my lady?" (Knight ???)

"This is not the place for you." (Knight ???)

"Or are you here for us?" (Knight ???)

"Sorry but, don't waste our time." (Knight ???)

"Go away." (Knight ???)

Ignoring them, I tried to walk through.

"I'm sorry, but I can't let you leave ...

"...What are you trying to do, Helger? Why would the Imperial Guards, who are supposed to protect the country, would commit a terrorist attack? I guess we can't trust people who work directly with the former emperor." (Senate President)

"I think you should stop pretending. We already know what you are planning to do, that is why we are doing this." (Helger)

There might be some resentment between the two.

He grabbed the Senate President, pushed him down, and said to him.

Because I usually lived in a dungeon, I almost forgot... In this world, the value of life was much lighter than in my previous life.

People die easily, and the concept of human rights in this world was vague, and basically, if you didn't do something to save yourself, then you would simply die in a ditch somewhere.

In such a world, the life and death of others who have nothing to do with you had little meaning, and moreover so, when it came to those who control the country, to the...

This was a few days before King Reid Glorio Allysia of the Kingdom of Allysia visited the Rogard Empire.

The Imperial Guards under the direct command of the Emperor had captured Alveiro Verbaan, thinking that this may be a bad idea, and had been watching the situation closely, preparing for the next operation based on the information coming from the intelligence organization.

Bear-San, In Action

We discussed the date of the move.

"Then we will take action in two days." (Guild Master)

We decided on that time after taking the interval between the draining of magic power into account.

"For my part, tomorrow would be fine." (Yuna)

"I have things to do, too, so I need a day to prepare." (Guild Master)

"This is Auges Trading Company."

I got out of the carriage and looked at the magnificent house.

...It was as big as a minor aristocrat's house. The architecture was a bit peculiar, though.

"It's kind of..."

"It's so bulky."

Gilles nodded to my comment.

This house is the only one that stands out in the town, which I guess is Gordon-san's taste. It looks like a show of economic power, but that was not a bad thing.

Preparation (2)

Reid Glorio Allysia, King of Allysia Kingdom.

When he visited the Rogard Empire on official business and heard about Yuki's current devious plan, he nodded his head in agreement to cooperate with Yuki on the spot.

He agreed partly because he owed Yuki a debt of gratitude, but more simply because he thought it would benefit the Allysia Kingdom as well.

The Rogard Empire remained a major power.

Although the Allysia Kingdom was clear...

Bear-san, in a Discussion

We gathered at the Adventurers' Guild to discuss the plan to get Ronne back.

"That man is not worthy of my sister. I'm going to wake her up even if I have to beat her." (Primme)

Primme said so in a firm tone.

If Ronne was part of something bad, she would have to be stopped.

"I hope you do." (Guild Master)

"But what's so good about a man like that?" (Primme)

With information from the Adventurers' Guild, we were on a monster-hunting mission.

Today, as usual, we were on the road to defeat a monster, but it turned out the monster had already been killed.

"An adventurer party?" (Knight)

"You shouldn't even think of forcibly stopping the process. Because if you do that, the magic in his body will be released indiscriminately, and he will surely die." (Bellung)

Bellung then said that to keep Ryan alive, they would have to keep the magic power flowing to Ryan.

As the king of a country, Reid had participated in and won a major war, his interactions with other races had increased significantly, and because of the air route connections by airships, new diplomatic relations with countries with which he had no direct connection were born, and because he had continued to handle these important matters, it appeared that he was unable to resign from his position as King.

It took a few days, but the Demon King decided to take Alveiro into custody under the guise of [Questioning], allowing him...

Looking at Shen, Alveiro said in a hesitant manner, "However, Demon King... The royal family may be up to something behind the scenes, but they most likely are not the ones responsible for this incident. After all, they ar...

I think that's a good enough method. It also didn't involve all the tedious research and such.

It was the same as transferring Ryan's magic power, but the only diffe...

It was made in such a way that absolutely no one could read it. It must have been difficult even for Liz-san to unlock it.
