Reincarnation Monarch

Was there a foreign intervention?

In response to Gaius' question, King Ziara nodded slowly and deeply.

"There it is. It is not obvious, but it seems that there were various schemes behind it." After all, not only did he lose six princes at once, but so did the powerful men in the court. It was a terrible mess, and it would have been easier for them to get in. ”

"Well, that's what happens." It would be quite painful for the country to have so many powerful people dead. "

King Gialla nodded slowly and deeply.

"Hmm. Of course, the powerful have their own territory." That's why he disappeared. First, there was a disturbance in each territory over who would be the successor. Behind it were foreign forces. "

"Oh, right. That's tough. It's the most troublesome person to fight for succession."

“Exactly. There were battles everywhere, and there was a lot of little civil war going on.”

"It's terrible. But it's quite different whether you can be a lord or not." Well, they won't pull it off. "

Hmm. I was not yet officially king, but my father the king had already lost his strength. As a king's substitute, he spoiled documents in an attempt to suppress disturbances in various places. "

Yeah? Wasn't he a king?

"My country has an old-fashioned culture." There are many procedures for becoming a king. After all, I think it was hard to remember the six months before I became a king. "

"It will take six months." In the meantime, do you have the authority of a king? "

“No, it's just a representative of the king.”

Well then, it's very difficult to suppress civil unrest.

"Yeah, that's why I had to spoil the paperwork."

You mean to send the documents to both sides in a fight?

“The parties, of course, and the powerful people in the provinces who are attached to each other.”

"Did you issue many documents in one successor battle?"

"Hmm. But that's not an official document from the king." There were many who ignored it. "

"Hmm, but come on, you're not sure you'll be king anytime soon, are you?" And yet you ignored it? "

"You're the one who said the difference between being a lord and not being a lord is huge." I'm sure you'll become a king later, but whoever thinks you have to become a lord here first won't have a substitute document. "

Gaius nodded heavily and sighed convincingly.
