― ― The Rogald Empire.
The Imperial Capital, Galia.
The glorious city was once shaded by the defeat of the war, but gradually recovered its former form - and now it has been reborn as a more diverse city than before.
The city where only humans lived was overflowing with a wide variety of human species due to the airship traffic, and with that, circulation increased and the economy boomed.
Although each country had its own intentions, it was not subject to "exploitation" of the Rogald Empire, but rapidly improved it as a place to balance the power of multilateralism and generate profits, so while it was a defeated country, it escaped decline.
Cities other than Gallia have not become battlegrounds in the first place, so there is no economic damage, and the decline in national capabilities has been minimal.
Moreover, those who committed the law were mercilessly arrested and severely punished, even if they were from the victorious country, and their attitude was accepted by the people of the Rogald Empire, so the transition from the previous system is relatively gentle.
This is the result of the policies and ideas of former Emperor Schendra that put emphasis on "reason", which permeated the people, and above all, it is the result of the power of the current emperor "Demon Emperor Yuki".
Currently, Demon Emperor Yuki was one of those who could not ignore anyone from all over the world.
He has little in the sense of power.
I have no financial resources, and the position of emperor is the only one, but I understand that it is a superficial state, and it is just a continuous name.
Nevertheless, his influence is now one of the highest in the world.
That's because it's strong.
It's just strong.
His subordinate monsters were obeying the power of the powerful [Demon King]. According to this, the kings of each country were bound to be concerned about the trend of the Demon Emperor Yuki.
Whenever he said that, he said, "No, no, no..." and smiled bitterly, but there was no one who could surpass Demon Emperor Yuki in battle force anymore, and all those in power thought that they should never be hostile to him.
Even though he is not a demon, he who is powerful is honored.
Even if the opponent is a suspicious person who does not understand [Demon King] who suddenly emerged, he will have a certain respect if he is not rude.
For this reason, there is a lot of concern for Demon Emperor Yuki, who is supposed to be only a face-down ruler, and the idea of not letting the country desolate, and he declares that "if you desecrate my country, I will judge it as an enemy", so the people of various countries are strictly tightening their own citizens who are staying in the Rogald Empire.
Of course, the claw marks of the war still remain, and the memories of the defeat are vivid in people's minds.
The problem is still a pile of problems, and the particular problem is still security.
There was a sudden influx of people along with the good economy, and for that reason, in addition to the "human supremacists" who caused the disturbance, many other criminal organizations, detective organizations, and countless other bad people were infiltrated and activated at once.
Originally, those who summarized the "back society" that existed in the Rogald Empire were not so vicious as to be called "public enemies", and it was judged that there was a certain moderation, and there was no active prosecution.
This is because by using the "map" function of the dungeon, previous emperors were able to capture violent criminals in less than a week, and criminal organizations and others who crossed the line were immediately eliminated.
The same was true for criminal organizations that came in from outside, but they were thoroughly shut out... because the country opened up, I came in one after another.
Speaking of defeated nations, the Rogald Empire is still a top-class power on the continent, and if we can take root here, we can make a huge profit.
Due to the serious countermeasures taken by the Demon Realm King Final, the vicious organizations were destroyed one after another, and they were getting rid of the unstable security at a time...... but still, there is a situation that should be called itchy.
And in some places, the negative effects were noticeable.
"Gehahaha, hey, wait a minute, onee-san"
"You don't have enough time to play, do you?" We'll take care of it, right? "
Night.
A group of two drunk men tangled up with a human woman on the road in the entertainment district of Imperial Capital Gallia.
The tribe was a demon race.
The entangled woman tried to escape, but the men stood in front of her so that she could play, and smiled vulgarly.
"... please let me through."
"Don't say that. Come on." We have better things than soft people? "
"Yes, I'm sure you'll like it too." That's why you don't look so disgusting. I'm gonna roll. "
The demons laughed unpleasantly, and one of them forced the woman to draw --- and the human man who was passing by grabbed the demon's arm.
"You guys, why don't you just do that?"
"Ah? What?"
Oh, you're so cool.
One of the pair flies a cancer and the other laughs like a fool with a breath of alcohol.
Even when he sees the reaction, the human man speaks calmly.
"Nowadays, every other race must be under strict control." I don't know who it is, but... try to imitate it with a drunken momentum. You'll be the ones to get rid of. "
"Shut up, you're kidding!"
The demon tribe that was grabbing the arm thought that it was forcibly swinging away the arm in a violent manner, and beat the human man to death.
A dull beating of the flesh and a small scream from those around me who were screaming.
The beaten human man stamped his foot, but still calmly looked at the demons and opened his mouth.
"Did you hit me? It's a pleasant street, here with a lot of people." What are you gonna do, punch me in the face? Your actions are under public scrutiny. Will you continue to be stupid in a situation where there are many witnesses? ”
I guess you thought the flag was a bad color.
The beaten man was still raving and yelling, but the other one seemed to be less drunk or relatively calm, "... hey, let's go", forced the drunk partner to pull and left the place.
Those who were watching the series of exchanges cheered and applauded for ruling the scene with only words, and the woman who was entangled bowed her head to the human man - eventually, the man will be alone again.
Walk down the alley at night.
The light leaking from the shop and the hustle and bustle that seems to be enjoyable.
Forget the daily stress and pain, immerse yourself in a moment of fun, and cultivate your spirit.
The opposite of an alley full of cool air, this place is like the boundary between dream and reality.
A human man thinks.
- I know.
The fact that the new system is not trying to make this country a mess, but is trying to govern firmly.
Soldiers and officials stationed in other countries who are judged to be violent and unremarkable are immediately transferred to the left, and if they commit crimes, they are severely punished.
I don't intend to do that because it's troublesome, but perhaps if I file a complaint, you'll investigate seriously.
Yes, the judiciary continues to work decently without rotting.
These attitudes have been appreciated, and as a result of the transition to the new system, I hear that business opportunities have more than doubled compared to before, and there are many real jobs.
Therefore, I can understand that there is a voice that is satisfied with the current situation where daily food is fully obtained.
... I don't have any such stupid ideas as human supremacy.
I have never thought that humans are particularly good, and I am obsessed with their delusions (...), and I feel uncomfortable watching them whisper their grievances in a high voice.
I always think that it will tarnish human decency.
- But...
But that's it.
The situation in which the government is now in the hands of other races... the human supremacists will have to break it down.
It is good that other races rise in the Rogald Empire, but the real power of the country itself must be held by the people of this country.
It is out of the question to do so with violence and exclusivity, but somehow we must regain the heart of the country.
Otherwise, this country will not be able to move forward.
Transition of the system... it's not an easy path.
She muttered and laughed tenderly.
But in the man's eyes, the will lit up.
- A man doesn't know.
He who sees himself from the shadows.
Some people think they're going to use the influence of men.
Malicious seeds exist everywhere, no matter how much.
