「…… Tsu!」

The King's words startled me

And that was enough as an answer

「So, that's true…

Well, don’t worry I don’t mean any harm

There was a legend conveyed only to the royal fa a visitor froe with theerous if held by evil people A countermeasure is indeed necessary, but we can’t just arrest them out of the blue Why? The reason is because the Gods sent them onto this land to finish their duty Therefore to ive them support

However, they hold a different set of values from people in this world, so it’s hard for the country to win the to assure their freedoive them support as much as you can

ーThat is the tradition which has been handed down for generations」

That’s……

But, perhaps it was not that odd

There must be some reincarnated person sent by the Goddess before If that reincarnated person also entrusted with a mission like me, of course there would be some opportunity to meet important people in this world

「That’s why, Edgar-yo What do you need frodom? Tell me your wish」

Because I didn’t expect it would turn out like this, I can’t think anything if suddenly asked like this

For now, let’s ask for information

「Well…… On one hand, we have the Sonorat’s pillaging brigade, the infa=””> On the other hand, we have the deanization <yatagarasu> These two organizations had the same objective at aldom

Isn’t it a bit toothat this is planned by a certain『someone』 from Sonorat or even further north」

I don’t knoho that『someone』is, but I believe the possibility for it to be the reincarnation of that random attacker, Kizaki Toru, was low

Kizaki should be reincarnated as a baby like me It will be questionable if a baby holds an influence to that extent

Even so, Gazaine said that he saw a mysterious child, which probably is Kizaki

Although it can’t be said that it was Kizaki who lead the situation, there’s a possibility that he was involved somewhere

But in that case, there’s a high possibility that an organization is protecting Kizaki and arasu〉

「Fumu I already sent a spy to find information about Sonorat situation

In Alfred’s report, there is a 『Pastor-saarasu〉 I wanted to arrange a search warrant containing her description, but it hasn’t bear any fruit」

「What kind of power does Sonorat have as a country?」

「What we understand is, it was a central city/state in the northern plateau Even so, it’s hard to think for such a small country to reach not only Sonorat, but even Santamana which is farther to the south And it’s also the sae if their power cross over until the et Santamana which is in the southern tip of the continent」

「How about other influences besides the country?」

「Perhaps the evil God believer orshi+ps the evil God is a dominant person Or maybe, the demon that resides in Frostbite, the lizardman in the southern continent, there’s also a connection with trader froe tribe who have a conflict with Santamana, or else the elves principality with revolution ideologist…… the possibility is roughly in such place」

「What about that evil God believers?」

「I wasn’t able to grasp their situation either, but they scattered all over the continent, and they said they make a secret society to achieve the evil God intention However, theby conspiracy and historical theories, and there are a lot of things that can't be grasped properly In the superstitious rural area, if you are doing sos, you will be suspected as a heretic People selfishly burn theh it was prohibited by a royal decree……」

In short, it’s like the secret society in the previous world, it’s all about occult after all

「About this heretic, please investigate them very carefully」

「Hou, is there any reason for it?」

「I have knowledge froranted by the power of Goddess-samaー Atrazenek-sama, the God who ruled the samsara I received a mission to pursue a man as reincarnated to this world, a devil worshi+per in the previous life」

「Fumu Devil worshi+per and evil God believer It’s certainly bad

I understand I will try to investigate this evil God believer

……Even so, if their activities are centered in Sonorat, then e can do will be limited」

「I think those guys took an advantage from the instability politic in Sonorat」

「But, it’s a difficult thing to do for our country I can’t possibly send a soldier just to subjugate Sonorat」

That’s right There’s no way I would ask to invade them

For the ti other than to request an investigation

No, there was another thing that I can ask for…

I wonder will it be okay to say it, but perhaps it’s okay for me to be frank

「Please, I beg you to give a generous treatarasu〉」

As a person who unified the people inside 〈Yatagarasu〉 and the mastermind of the revolt, I have a responsibility to ask for this

Because of htly opened his eyes and said

「Hou…… Even though they kidnapped you? Why do you try to protect them?」

「I talked with the

In that process, they also mentioned various problems they had

They said that they felt bad for doing it, so I don’t want them to be punished severely」

「But, it’s regrettable that I have to punish them

There are circumstances which criminal become a victih it seems horrible to punish people, it’s still necessary to h to be a ruler」

「Of courseEven if they were deceived to kill a people, the fact that they killed people doesn’t disappear However, 〈Yatagarasu〉used drugs as a brainwashi+ng method

I think it was difficult to get through that by their oer If you think that way then probably et brainwashed like them

As for their murders, I think those who ordered them to kill people should be held responsible」

「Fumu……」

The king was silent while put his finger on his chin

And then,

「Alfred, your son’s opinion isn’t yours, right?」

「No, it’s not For me, it's normal for those assassins who attacked our families to be punished

According to the kingdom’s law, it’s not possible for them to escape fro into account, they still can’t be said not guilty

Moreover, there is still a doubt whether they really change their heart or not」

What father said seems to be harsh, but in the prior discussion, as a noble, he should remain neutral, so he was not supposed to support my opinion

According to father, 「His Majesty, The King is a wise person, he will reject prejudiced opinion」

The king nodded a few times to understand father’s opinion

「True, it’s worrying It’s dangerous to release those trained assassins to public」

「So……?」

「Umu Normally, a boy’s opinion should be rejected

However, it was this boy ill save the kingdom

Therefore, I will hear this boy’s opinion Consider it a co the fact that you are a reincarnated person」

The king clapped his hand to call a person

The person who cauided us before

「ーThe king of Santa the forarasu〉

〈Yatagarasu〉former member will be sentenced to construct the castle ithout payment The period is until the co that time, those who caused trouble will be subjected to severe punishment as usual Those who didn’t cause trouble will be freed after completion of the construction

However, there is an obligation to report the address to the country after liberation, and if he co to the weight of the cried by the king

For the fored separately

ーThat’s all, record it」

The officer recorded king’s statement to a wooden clipboard

The officer finally handed the clipboard to the king, and the king signed after confir the content of the clipboard

「Probation……」

I was standing alone whilethat word

「Probation? That’s a good way to call it

Then, from now on this punishment will be called as probation For the crined to probation

However, in order to not to be abused, probation will need approval for the ti 」

After the officer wrote down the king’s word once again, the king watched the officer leaving

「What about those under the age of 15?」

Asked the queen

「How arasu〉?」

「There are 29 people under 12 and 15 people around age 13 and 15」

Father replied the question of the king

Father dealing with the after-process, we rented a building to be an inn and prepared a place for the accoinally, it was because the owner kindness that the inn can becoet a job experience as well as for a way to feeding the children, it will be operated as a placed to encourage independence Obviously, father will give a support to the inn as the lord of the territory

Because of that, father was able to accurately grasp the number of children

Father explained to the king about the present situation and future prospect of the children until the policy about labor and sociality of the inn

「Hou……It’s quite an effort Orphan often become a criet a job

Could it be an idea froe of this boy?」

I answer the king’s question

「Yes it is Infor those who are socially disadvantaged, such as orphan or handicapped person

However, as a forarasu〉, they have a certain combat technique, so I think it will be easy for them to become adventurer」

「So, why did you take such measure?」

「They didn’t receive any love fro brainwashed and doing harsh co If it continues as it is, I think they would have a hard ti to an ordinary life」

「Unable to adapt to ordinary life, is it? True, I heard a story fro part of a terrible war, they can’t adapt to ordinary life anymore」

In the previous life, probably it was a proble soldiers from Vietnam

I was surprised I could grasp the civilization level of Marquekt
