Raydor Holy Sword War Journal

"Oh my God... you've finished your job."

"Good work, Master."

A gathering of nobles from all over the kingdom.For the first time since Reidor became the Regent and stood at the center of the national government, the event unfolded in a restless atmosphere.

When Raydol returned to his office, he sat on the sofa and received a drink from his maid, Namilia.

The refreshing taste of citrus comes out of your nose when you apply your mouth to fruit water cooled by magic.

"It was a crowded gathering... anyway, the first phase of the reform is now complete.I was able to wipe out the rebellious nobles. "

"Congratulations, my king.This will eliminate any pus that has accumulated in the Kingdom of Zain. "

It was not Namilia who worked for the Lord with a gentle tone, but the boy who was by the wall of the room.

Today, Sven Arbeil, officially Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Zain, stood with his sister Angelica Ilcas in her arms.

Angelica's rich chest is pushed against Sven's back head and deformed in an inflammatory fashion... but it seems that Sven is no longer illuminated or ashamed that she has become accustomed to excessive expressions of love.

"Hmm. I thought the Regent was a troublesome job... but I don't feel bad that he did what he couldn't even do with my brother or Rockwood."

Raydol snapped deeply and smiled happily.

The kingdom of Zain was a kingdom, but it was not always possible for the king to wield power, and the inner feelings were far from a single rock.

Though the King reigned as the supreme power, he was not capable of authoritarian politics that ignored the nobles.

Grannard and Rockwood were capable politicians, but they were often obstructed by aristocracy and crushed without being able to carry out their elaborate policies.

In the first place… Behind all systems, laws and regulations lies the existence of powerful people who derive a vested interest from it.

Even a system that can be described as "bad law" from anyone's perspective cannot avoid confronting powerful people who seek to protect their vested interests in order to reform.

Raydol succeeded in crushing the insurgents who would have been in his way before embarking on a serious reform.

"It was fortunate for His Highness Raydol to be able to deal with the 'pus' that devoured the country at an early stage.You have to thank the Empire for all this. "

"Hmm... Sven, I'm not impressed to praise the enemy."

Angelica flashed her face on Sven's crush.

The Empire destroyed their homes and lost their families, but their attitude toward the Empire was in contrast.

Sven sees value in his relationship with the Empire, both internally and positively towards harmony.Angelica, on the other hand, is dissatisfied with her friendship with the Empire and is not trying to hide it.

I have a beloved 'brother' and I have not moved on to open action... but without Sven, even Raidor, who was in harmony with the Empire, could have been struck by feelings of hatred.

"Nevertheless... reform has just begun.Opportunity born of war with the Empire.We need to make good use of it. "

"That's right... because the confusion caused by the war disaster has not subsided, it won't be a problem to push for reform.All you have to do is swear to be a traitor! "

Sven accepts with an innocent smile commensurate with his age.

The Kingdom of Zain has just ended its war with the Alsline Empire.The effects of the death of Grannard and Rockwood have not yet fully subsided.

Because of this situation, reform can be pursued by pushing hard.

Even if nobles who rebel against reform have not committed obvious injustice or treason, it is possible to dispose of them in chaos.

It's called "dictatorship."It is a barbaric act that may be condemned by future generations of historians.

But... Raydol thought it was necessary to correct the tyranny and oppression of the nobles that had been tolerated.

"This country is too noble.Aristocrats who govern the region like to levy taxes on their own to enrich their private stomachs and build their strength by organizing a leadership in the name of maintaining law and order.In that case, they refuse to cooperate in national defense with whatever reasoning they like, even though they are under the control of the King in a situation of aggression from other countries.You're out of your mind. "

"If a nobleman betrays, his leader will remain an army of the enemy... eliminating the nobility's privileges and cutting economic power, and the military power must be fully held by the king to prevent rebellion."

In human history, more countries have emerged and disappeared than in ancient times, but surprisingly few have perished solely for exogenous reasons, such as invasion by other countries.The demise of the state is often caused by multiple internal and external illnesses.

In fact, in the previous war with the Empire, many aristocracy were leaping forward in response to the invasion from the Empire.

Raydol aims for a strong country that can crush such "internal distress" and unite to confront the national crisis, "external illness."

"Nevertheless... repetition of the pranks will cause anxiety and insecurity to the people.We have to finish the reform at once. "

Sven talks about the theory with a serious face, dressed like an idiot in Angelica's arms.

"That's right. Those who stand up and rebel have crushed them... If we take the reform seriously, there will be more rebels.We'll strip the nobles of their privileges and get naked before they're ready to rebel! "

Raydol proclaimed arrogantly and poured into his mouth all at once the fruit water which he had given him from Namilia.
