I Favor the Villainess
38. Intensification of the conflict
"You've got a problem..."
That's what Lady Rod groaned.
"Citizens are still pushing forward in large numbers in front of the gate today. College doesn't work like this."
Lambert said so bitterly.
The story of the courtyard case leaked somewhere outside the college and spread to the general public.
Citizens who heard the story reveal their anger and thus repeat demonstrations of protest to the College.
I haven't done anything to force the gate through so far, but I don't know what will happen if I leave it like this.
"... it's a little bitter for Deed to say the same."
Master Sein said like a sigh of sigh.
Master Yu and Lambert asked for an explanation.
Says, it was only a pose that I pulled out my wand, I didn't mean to use magic, and I didn't mean to hurt you like that.
However, as a matter of fact, the injured person is out, and is suffering from general burns.
Nobody would be convinced that this was not meant to happen.
"How are the citizens reacting?
"An arrogant nobleman seems to be talking about irrational violence against a poor civilian."
"Actually, you're pretty much right... you don't have to say anything."
Master Rod stroked his jaw.
Master Deed only escorts Master Yu, and his magical arm is a big deal.
At the same time, as a royal buckwheat servant, he is rigorously trained not to mildly imitate.
Self-control is built, and the ability to control magic is more than normal.
Would such a man take such action, even if he insulted the Lord?
"Only Deed, that can't be happening"
Master Yu affirms.
"But it's everything that happened. We've also looked into Dead's magic wand, but there's no sign that it was malfunctioning, no lines of accident."
It was Lambert who accompanied you.
I've touched on him a little before, but he's a Demon Prop Specialist.
The statement is convincing.
"... really, why are you doing this..."
Master Yu can nod.
It's really painful to watch as the prince looks Yu is depressed.
"Moaning doesn't start. What are we going to do?"
"Right."
Claire agrees with Rod, who said as if to change the air.
"Honestly, what's outside the college is in our hands. with the country... in some cases it will be military work"
The Knights of the College is only an organization that deals with matters within the College.
Demonstrations of citizens, etc., are outside the jurisdiction.
In the first place, there is no way that only a dozen children can be sedated or anything like a demonstration.
"We'll do what we can. What's going on inside the academy?
"You're almost like the citizens. It is a schematic: a civilian angry at the tyranny of the nobility. There are civilians who develop noble criticism during lectures, and it's like they can't give lectures."
Lambert answers Lord Rod's question.
I think the courtyard case is an unreasonable one, but I don't think this one is going in the wrong direction to point the spear at me again.
"How do you think I can fit in?
Master Rod asks Lambert over and over again.
"Honestly, I have no idea. If any disposition is made to Master Deed, or he may head in the direction of sedation..."
"What's going to happen to the disposition?
"It's hard. If you are a junior nobleman, you are still an intermediate nobleman connected to the Temple forces. If we dispose too heavily, rebellion from the noble forces will be imperative."
Anything, it seems that the wounds Matt suffered this time were so severe that it wouldn't be strange if he were normal to be dead.
Matt took his life when the temple side, which took a heavy look at the situation, took full advantage of the highest-ranking water attribute magician and precious magic tools to hit the cure.
As a temple, I guess I couldn't have let Matt die, even if it wasn't.
"How are the aristocratic college students reacting?
"So far there has been no movement that was a table, but it seems that some are beginning to make a radical claim not to put civilians up any further"
"... finally sucks"
Master Rod groans bitterly.
"Dear Claire, what's wrong with you?
I don't understand Master Rod's sense of crisis, and I'll ask Master Claire.
"Is your head a decoration? If the conflict continues to escalate, there will be no place to drop it."
"Where did you drop it?
"I'm talking about a settlement where both the aristocratic and the civilian sides can be convinced. The point is that any dissatisfaction remains, and I'll convince you there for now."
"It's maggot-colored."
"You can't just wear black and white to do politics, can you?
That seems to be what it is.
"For one thing, I, Sain and Yu will do the aristocratic side persuasion. If the future king admonishes a mild statement, a little radical words and actions will also subside"
That's what Master Rod said as he put his arms together.
For the aristocracy, the royal word equals the revelation of God.
"I'll leave the persuasion on the civilian side to you, Misha and Ray. Do me a favor, gas him out."
"I'll try"
"Uh."
I don't like politics and rushing and other difficult things.
"Uh, it's not. Dear Lord Rod, this is an immediate order, so work in good faith."
"Then, Master Claire, keep up the good work and say it. With love."
"I'm not talking stupid. In this emergency."
"I'm very serious. If you don't tell me, I won't work."
"All right, I'll tell you."
So Lord Rod sent me a rescue ship.
With a bitter smile, then.
"Hey, what are you talking about, Master Rod?"
"Look, ha-ha-ha, ha-ha-ha!
"This... get on with it...!
"Ha-yaku!
Me persistently urging.
Yeah, I'm being evil.
"... good luck, Ray"
I think so. That's what Claire said.
"I don't have enough love. Redo."
"Just work!
I don't have a choice anymore.
Then a few days ran to ease the conflict within the college to the best of each ability.
The aristocratic side is showing a movement of sedation with the prince, including Lord Rod, turning to persuasion.
After all, the royal language seemed to be highly effective.
Meanwhile, movements on the civilian side remained active.
It is the inferior scholars in numbers within the college, but now there is a back shield called public opinion.
There were frequent protests to echo the door-to-door demonstrations that took place every day.
As a result, discontent had accumulated on the noble side and the civilian side had created a vicious circle of conditioning.
◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆
The day has come when Master Deed's disposition will be announced.
In the courtyard, the scene of the incident, a number of people, both aristocratic and civilian, were awaiting the promulgation of the results to create a crowd.
And the disposition was announced.
"... this should not be..."
Master Claire groaned heavily.
- Announcement, make Deed-Murray a prudent week -
This... would just be too light.
My thoughts seemed to belong to the civilian students as they were, and anger echoed around.
"Dear Claire, this way. This place is dangerous for the nobles."
Laine pulled Lady Claire's sleeve.
"But we need to quiet this noise!
"I can't right now. We're all killing each other. It doesn't make sense."
"... cum"
"Dear Claire, Lene is right. Let's evacuate now."
Still desperately persuading Master Claire to eat down, we left the spot.
"... what's going to happen..."
Master Claire's whining could have been inside the chest of all the college students as it was.
