Hakai no Miko

Everyone was shocked.

It was not only the great general who was the pillar of the nation, but it was Garam who supported him from the time when the pale horse stood in battle for the first time in this world. What jumped out of his mouth was that the marriage between Parfena, an ecclesiastical sect that scorned non-human species as subhuman, and Aohora, the bishop, was not bad. It is also natural to be able to gaze at the traitors from among the elf officers in the room.

"Come on, General." What are you going to say that's crazy? "

The first person to turn to me and ask Garam was Zug, with whom he had a long relationship.

With a dumb tone, Zug's eyes were swordfish. To put it mildly, Garam says with unwavering determination to Zug, who seems to be getting hit.

"I said I wanted to see what everyone thought." - Zug, what do you think? "

Garam and Zug often clash silently. It was often Zug who broke first. Zug shrugged his shoulders as he leaked his tongue lightly.

"I don't want to talk about men and women. If your Majesty says she doesn't like it, it's fine. If she says it's fine, she'll have to admit it."

Garam said, "When I was with my wife (Shishur), I would have let out my mouth, hands, fists, and kicks!" But Zug ignores it, hoists one end and slightly peers at his fangs.

"However, it is too much for us to be on the side of the greatness of the Ecclesiastical Church." Even if you become a concubine, I would like you to retreat to the back of the royal palace and never come out again. "

In other words, this is definitely impossible.

Next, Banuka raised her hand in horror.

"If possible, I'm sorry too." --Besides, I don't want something more scary to happen later. "

In so doing, Banuka glanced at Chirari and Eladia.

Eladia laughs at this.

"Oh, what is Lord Banuka worried about?"

He smiles, but his eyes are not laughing.

He's definitely going to kill me.

Everyone couldn't help but be sure.

"I, a human species, don't want to be a part of the Episcopalian Church anymore."

It was Marcronis who spoke up to change the awkward air.

"I have a friend of a different race, but many of them seem to be more competent than me. Not to mention the people here, they are superior because they are a human species, and the doctrine that alien races are inferior races is only paranoid."

There were several other opinions, but in general, it was impossible to marry Parfena.

After hearing everyone's opinions, Garam slowly opens his mouth.

"I told you in advance, I don't think the marriage between His Majesty and Parfena is the best." However, if you look at the situation that should be worried about now, it's just that it's not bad. "

Garam looked so worried.

To all of them, Garam said each and every word in a clear voice, as if to chew them apart.

"I'm worried about the future of this country."

Unexpected words popped up, and everyone was disgusted. Garam speaks calmly to everyone like that.

"Recently, there have been a number of incidents that threaten (scare) the body of His Majesty Soma. In a place called Mirza, Lord Soma was slashed in the head by an enemy general and is said to have managed to save his life thanks to the bowl of gold. That's not all. After that, it was close to escaping through the mountains and into the castle. And this assassination attempt."

Garam dares to cut his words here. And I said the following words in a solid voice.

"Lord Soma is not immortal."

Such a thing need not be said.

Shortly after the Azure Horse was stabbed, he had just caused a commotion that seemed to have turned the world upside down.

However, at the same time, it has passed, and now everyone here has left it unconscious.

Garam thrust it at everyone again.

"Anyway, His Majesty Soma's flesh is just human." If you get beaten, you feel pain, and if you get slashed, you bleed. The bigger the wound, the more you die. No, if you just fall, you die. He dies just because he has a cold. He's a very normal person! "

Garam finished speaking at once with the same momentum as he spoke, and asked everyone after turning around and softening his voice.

"If His Majesty Soma dies here, what will happen to this country?" Who can put this country together? And what will happen to us? "

No one could answer Garam's question.

No, more accurately, everyone knew the answer, but they couldn't say it.

"Yes! No one in this room - no!" No one can bring this country together in His Majesty's stead. When His Majesty Soma dies, so will this country and we! ”

Instead of the silent companions, Garam answered with anguish and heartache, as if he were spitting blood.

"I lead all the armies of this country as a general only because His Majesty Soma has appointed me to do so." When His Majesty Soma dies, the title of the general is also worthy of mention. I wonder if my fellow Zoans of the same race will follow me. Anyone here can help me. I feel that much fraternity. But can you say the same is true of those underneath? ”

I don't think so.

It was Marcronis who asserted it.

"It is not long since we have created this country that ensures freedom and equality for all races. If we had all been in good hands, the world would have been more peaceful."

Marcronis, who took care of the security of the royal capital, knew very well that even in the royal capital, it was still happening on a daily basis because of the differences between the races. Although none of the major incidents had developed by then, even in the capital of the kingdom, which is the knee of the pale horse, which lists a large variety of races of Yuwa, there is still a stiffness between the races. Marcronis always felt that it would take a long time for the ideal of the pale horse to come true.

Gallam nodded strongly to Marcronis's opinion.

"Yes, and it is no exaggeration to say that His Majesty is unique." There is no one who can serve as a substitute!

But His Majesty is not immortal.

And when His Majesty dies, this country loses its head. No creature can survive without its head, and no country can survive without His Majesty. It's the end of us and of this country. "

Garam pointed out that everyone had lost their words.

After a while, Zug licked her nervously dry lips with her tongue and moistened them before squeezing them out.

“So what do we do?”

Garam reasserts that “there is no substitute for His Majesty Soma,” and then says:

But what about that kid?

Everyone was surprised.

In addition, Garam continued.

"Our obedience to His Majesty is due to a great deal of grace." If so, would there be few who would be dissatisfied with putting it on the king, not only with His Majesty Soma himself, but also with His Son? "

It is not unusual to return the debt received to the child, rather than to the child himself. Even in Zoan, there are anecdotes that Yakka, the hero, did not point his blade at the warrior's son even in a duel.

"I know that His Majesty is denying the rule of the country by bloodline." As His Majesty is concerned, the child of the good may not always be the best. His Majesty's son is not necessarily equipped with the king's qualities either.

But we can make up for the missing pieces. If it's an idea, Solon, if it's an internal affair, Michena, if it's a diplomatic compromise, Eladia. If it's military, it's up to us.

Now that the country is functioning and there are many subordinates, what we are looking for from His Majesty is not his personal peculiar ideas or ideas, let alone his superior strategic and tactical talents.

What we need is a flag that indicates the direction the country should take. It is a person who shows the formless country to the folk grass in the form of a person. We are the ones who have what we think is sufficient to put our lives on the line.

And it can only be done by His Majesty Soma now, and only by His Majesty's son, who is not yet there. "

Garam's face wrinkled between his eyebrows and grimaced.

"In my personal opinion, welcoming a woman who believes in holy church to the queen is also a good place to work." However, considering this country, even if the mother is the bishop of the hate church, I think it is best to have His Majesty marry and have children as soon as possible. "

I haven't heard a word from anyone in a while.

This is because, while reason acknowledges that Garam's words are correct, it is still difficult for the emotions of Parfena, who believes in the Ecclesiastical Church and continues to persecute them, to accept their contempt for subhumanity.

In such silence, my voice suddenly leaked.

Then we'll have a better candidate.

That's what Solon said.

While attracting everyone's attention, Soron puts his mouth on the bottle he brought, takes a sip, and then mutters.

"Princess Warina of the former Princess Holmea."
