Raydor Holy Sword War Journal

160. Night dictator

The grand solemnity of nobility at the royal palace.

Then Raydol ordered Sven, who had been appointed prime minister, to work to eliminate previously abandoned evil laws and reduce the authority of the nobility.

Until now, the aristocracy had the power to impose taxes on their people, independently known as the "Leadership Force".

However, all those powers would be confiscated by Leidor's reforms under his reign.

The lord's army came under the command of the national army, and the nobles who lost power were deprived of any strength.

Regarding taxes, nobles were not allowed to levy taxes on their own citizens, and a uniform tax system was to be put in place for the whole kingdom.

All privileges held by the nobles were eliminated and they were relegated to a position close to that of deputy in charge of the territory on behalf of the King.

Of course, the nobles did not accept such a decline.

Some of the nobles have rebelled against Leidor and even attempted to rebel by force.

But... that's the kind of development Raydol wants.

Raydol defeated the invasion of the Alsline Empire and now has most of the power in the Kingdom of Zane.

The aristocrats who tried to start a rebellion were quickly eliminated by force and deprived of their lord's status and land.

It was also positive for Raidor that the first solemnity resulted in the burial of leading nobles such as Crowley Rhodes.All the remaining aristocracy are small and medium-sized aristocracy with little force or financial resources.There was no way we could have fought Raydol.

Some nobles clashed behind without defying the front... but under Raydol there was Nemiria, the witch in charge of darkness.

There was no one in Namilia who could hide behind the shadows and manipulate the wizards who could dive anywhere.

The territory of the aristocracy is decreasing, and instead, the territory under the royal authority is increasing.

A new position called "Governor" was created in the immediate area to replace the aristocrats, and local politics was assumed under the self-cleaning effect of irregular audits.

The "aristocracy", which divided the king and power in the kingdom of Zain, lost its power and became a prestigious position.

Terribly - these reforms were implemented in a short period of only two months.

The relationship between royalty and nobility, which lasted 200 years in the Kingdom of Zain, collapsed in such a short period of time that authoritarian politics by centralization was completed.



"... you're not going to be a ruler.I'd rather swing my sword on the battlefield. "

It was Raidor, who stood at the top of the kingdom of Zain, but the look on his desk in the royal palace office was gloomy.

Colorful fatigue is stuck to his face, and his red eyes, usually full of dominance, are losing light and fainting.

"Master... shouldn't you rest a little?Would you like me to take you to bed?Come on, it's a boob pillow! "

While rubbing the shoulders of such a lord, Namilia pretends to work and reveals her desires.

Time is already around midnight.

During the day, the office where the civilians worked so hard was now only the owners of the room, Raydol and Maid Namilia.

Raydol worked until late at night, and Namilia worked for the weary lord.

"... why are all these idiots?I don't like aristocrats because they're like this. "

Raidor complains like that, raising his position as a royal on the shelf.

The other day, a certain nobleman was just detained by the Knights led by Dalen in an attempt to start a rebellion.

That's what Raydol expected.I was aiming for it, but I still felt it was a hassle to clean it up.

More than half of the kingdom's nobles have lost their titles and territories as a result of Leidor's reforms.

Even though it was clear that there was no chance of winning against him, there were still rebellious aristocracy.

(It was unexpected by the boulders that all the bad guys so far knew.I thought you were a little smarter...)

I did not intend to eliminate all the nobles as I did with Raidor.

A nobleman who obeys himself. A nobleman loved by his people without imposing heavy taxes.As for the nobles who did not illegally dye their hands, it was intended to guarantee their income and status without any trouble in life.Nevertheless... there is no sign of a decline in the number of nobles who disobey.

The aristocrats who were seized of their rights and interests hated Raydol and continued to rebel and clash.

"But... the rebellion has decreased considerably compared to the first one."

"Instead, there were more assassins.Sven seems to be struggling. "

Raydol smiles back at Namilia's words.

The noble resistance has declined considerably, but the number of assassins directed against Regent Raydol and Prime Minister Sven has instead increased.

Of course, it doesn't seem to succeed.

There were no assassins who attacked Raydol, and the sacred sword was rusted, and the assassin who targeted Sven was given a blood festival by Angelica.

"I thought I showed enough of Angelica's horror.She'll be worse than me. "

"Women who protect their loved ones are much stronger and scarier than human eaters."

"An important man... I think he's more obsessed with love than love."

Angelica's attitude towards Sven is kind of crazy.

That's it - even Raydol, who has slipped through numerous Shura grounds, froze his spine.

"Love and obsession are the same.Angelica likes Sven and can't help it.Sven, if it's for you, I'll destroy the country. "

Nemilia said in her face and hugged Raydol from behind.

Soft feeling pressed against the neck.Normally, it was a little colourful, but Raydol, whose fatigue had prevailed, gave a slight expression.

"Angelica is married.No, I don't know about the couple. "

Angelica's husband, Brad Calcifer, is in charge of the eastern realm and is separated from Angelica.

The newlyweds aren't doing very well, and I've never heard a word from Angelica about Brad.

Angelica only spoke of her unusual affection for Sven.

"Well... that's why I don't look unhappy to see a man named Brad Calcifer.I wonder why he's okay with his woman sticking to other men, even though she's a child. "

"Isn't it a bedtime hobby?I feel like I can understand just a little bit.I was just a little happy when Seelia came home. "

Naomilia let go of her body, which was tightly attached to Raidor, and nodded well.

This erotic maid seems to have even fallen asleep with her attributes.Raydol distorted his lips in astonishment.

"... well, anyway, the country is heading in a good direction.The tyranny of the aristocracy has left no one starving to death. "

He was a Reidor who became a dictator, but when asked if his reign was disturbing, he couldn't say so.

Until now, nobles had been allowed to levy taxes at their own discretion.In some towns and villages, oppression prevailed, and the inhabitants grew poor and starved to death.

In addition to the land tax, labor service, and military service, there are also areas where taxes such as "marriage tax" and "first night tax" are applied, even when the lord and his relatives seize and sell off the people and rape them.

Such tyranny has been eliminated by the reform of Leidor, which deprived the nobles of their right to tax and unified the tax system.

Raydol was accepted as a good politician by the people liberated from oppression, although he was strongly hated by the aristocrats who were deprived of his privileges.

"My brother must have been a moderate and good king.Even nobles like that scumbag managed to make a deal. "

Granard tolerated the tyranny of the nobles, but it was not necessarily incompetent as a king.

Rebellion and rebellion cannot be avoided if nobility is deprived of its privileges, which can lead to the breaking up of the country.

Of course, the National Army is much stronger than the aristocrats - but if the aristocracy were to unite and turn back to the Empire, the kingdom of Zain would certainly have been destroyed.

Raydol is able to push for reform with such vigour that he has overwhelming force as the holder of the Holy Sword.Above all, harmony with the Empire has been established and we are able to deal with "internal distress" without worrying about "external illness".It is a tribute to a number of overlapping luck injuries, such as having a name to punish the aristocrats for informing the Empire.

Raidor is not necessarily better than Granard.

Rather, his position as a politician allowed him to understand how Grannard and Rockwood struggled to rule the country.

"Well, you're going to be young and gray.I thought he was a stupid brother, but he was struggling with that. "

I was a loathsome and helpless fool while I was alive, but as soon as I died, I saw a good part, so it was bad for me to clean up.

Raydol smiled bitterly and rolled the feather pen in his hand to the desk.

"Let's put this aside for today... I can't even do the work I can do with my sleepy eyes."

"Yes, yes, good night!Quickly prepare bed and meat futon! "

"... what is a meat futon? I'm tired, so get me a regular futon."

"Huh? It's so soft, there's a futon here..."

Nemilia held her cheeks down with both hands and said, "No, no!"and twitched his body.

Raidor gets tired of dropping his shoulders and opens his mouth to a maid who always drives normally.

But...

"Eh...!?"

Suddenly, severe chills stroked Raydol's spine.

Your whole body feels birdskin and feels like your blood is freezing.

Namilia!

"[Shadow Snake Gate (Shadow Prison)]"

I called the maid's name as soon as I could, but Namilia was already on the move.

Naomilia crouches down, hands on the floor, and activates her magic.Numerous black snake-like things emerge from the feet of Namilia and stretch vertically and horizontally to the entire royal palace.

The next moment - a massive earthquake that turned the ground upside down struck the Royal Palace of Zain.
