Seems Rikyo's been saving up a lot of depression.
"Yeah, that's right"
Spend the night in the Domino Republic. Pallet Caputo and Masaozo Kobe.
The capital, which was burned by the war, was also undergoing significant reconstruction, and there was at least a peaceful quiet in the city viewed from the veranda of the castle.
Peaceful quiet here was not everyone spending their nights frightened, but quiet like a snowy day, where if you shut your ear, you could hear the bickering.
It was something Rikyo was trying to maintain and at the same time spread across the country.
"I'm just listening, and I'm getting better and better."
"Yeah, it was enough for me to know"
"If I can help you with this... it's not a bad idea to come and see me sometimes"
"Right."
Regardless of the way it is done, Rikyo has managed to support the country.
I can't even compliment you on the way you did it, but that never affects the people.
That would surely be evil if we behaved the same way against the people.
But all he's doing is against officials. Officials are the people, of course, but it would also be the job of the exchangers to bring corrupt officials to justice.
In that sense, he's only doing normal things because of the tension.
I guess the more tension goes wrong, the busier and harder it is.
"... I'm in a difficult position"
"Oh, not at all. I'm still gonna do my best, so I'm gonna lose my head."
Rikyo has bowed his head to Arcana twice before.
The first time, when the invasion failed, it was a light acceptance of defeat.
The second time Fuukei attacked, he gave up on the other trump cards, saying it was impossible to defeat him.
If Rikkyo decides he can't do it, he immediately cuts through and switches.
The speed of that switch would also be his strength, albeit dictator.
It is due to the certainty that no matter how much I fail, I will not be kicked off otherwise.
He never asked Arcana for help.
That shows his attitude as it is.
Looks like he's still going to work hard.
"… Can't people change"
The palette said so with a view of the night.
Doowe thought he was the most blessed woman in the world, but the palette also understands he's the blessed woman.
Whatever I say like that, I understand that it may only be a sermon from above in the end.
"Huh?"
"It must be natural for people who have ever been abused to want to be in a position to be abused this time if they put themselves in the same position as those who were abused"
"Right."
"I guess you can't share the food because you can't eat it unless you take it from someone."
Domino now has Danua.
If God's grace is to produce food inexhaustibly, hunger is almost eradicated to the extent that food arrives in one day.
As long as Danua is in this country and has a heart of charity in Rikyo, the suburbs of the capital are almost fine.
This means that all the food that was supposed to go around the capital will remain in the region, and the local food situation will inevitably improve significantly.
Although local workers remained reduced, there were nevertheless significant cuts in tax rates and local farmers were experiencing improved hunger.
Of course, the weather manipulation by Vajra does not prevent it from becoming unscrupulous, and there is no damage such as long rain and no worries of drought.
The people regarded Rikyo as a new exchanger only because of the dramatically improved food situation since the imperial period.
Speaking of cheats, that's it, but if you take it seriously and think about the people starving to death, you shouldn't even put them in options such as what you do on a regular basis.
But that's as long as Rikyo survives.
Ryukyo needs to be prepared for when he's gone or after he's dead while he's decent.
It requires a change of consciousness on the part of the entire population.
"This country was long oppressed. It made me proud of what stood on top, and made my subjects save what they had accumulated. This is what's up there, and this is what's down there, and it's getting so tight."
"... indeed. Everybody's corrupt, that's what I'm talking about."
Of course, there is a degree of corruption.
I hate to say it, but corruption exists, both in the Kingdom of Arkana and in Caputo. There are people to be punished, and there are bad people under the water that have not been revealed.
But in Domino's case, the number and seriousness of it are not comparable. Fattening your personal belly, too, has limits.
In the case of the Kingdom of Arcana, some addition or subtraction exists.
The people on the corrupt side also have a year in corruption, so they grasp what is a good range to corrupt.
There are aspects of consideration for the possibility of discovery, but I understand that I lose money by overfattening my private belly and my subjects dry up.
Everyone knows that it is better to get it under your sleeve from the rich than to exploit it it thoroughly from the poor.
Domino corruption, however, knows no additions or subtractions.
I mean it, because I've become great, and I don't care what I do.
If you let the guy who came to investigate grab the money too, I don't doubt he'll pass any impossibility.
So if you do a little research, you discover serious corruption.
It is only natural that Rikyo should be angry.
"... are people born good or evil? I don't know about that, but there was too much evil spreading in this country. If you raise in that evil, if you live in evil, whatever heart you have, you may become evil. If you're in a position to do evil, you may lean toward evil."
Not all the people have changed, even when the regime has taken its place.
If so, then maybe all the people of this country will run evil if they get a 'role'.
Now they spend this night with their families, they may have been planted with the seeds of evil.
Maybe that's something I can't help.
"Aristocrats may call their subjects inferior and despise them. And I know it's not completely rootless."
It's not limited to dominoes.
Many in the kingdom of Arcana want to swarm and smoke sweet juice at the successful.
If you call that humble, I guess so.
The aristocracy speaks of it as limited to those who descend, but not to those who descend.
Of course, the percentages and their disappointments are not comparable.
"... will a person, by birth, have a mind to decide? Can't people... change?"
"Dear Palette... what a stupid thing to do"
Masakazo was frightened against the seriously troubled palette.
I can see the palette's argument, but the conclusion is too flashing.
"First of all, I guess I've been like this since I spent time here."
"That's... right. You just met, you were shallower. Must have changed."
"If it doesn't change, Caputo will be destroyed by now."
Never exaggerated. Or, Masakazo had been killed.
Though suddenly empowered and the surrounding environment changed as a whole, Makzo was indeed changing.
That was a sure fact.
"But that's..."
"That's right, hey, I do think it's because the surrounding environment has suddenly changed. I think this is what happened to me because the Caputo guy was a good guy. If I had been in Domino, this wouldn't have happened. I'm sure he was starting to think for himself and act at his discretion, like Rikyo."
Of course, deciding what to do at your discretion is not always a good result.
There are also differences in the heads of vegetables, on top of the fact that the given forces are too different. It could have been even more tragic than Rikkyo.
"If we stay in this country, maybe Rikyo will continue to change more. But well...... I'm fine. People change, good wind or bad wind. It's difficult and time consuming, but I can do it for the better. If Rikyo makes this country better all the time, then the people will get better."
I want that to happen.
I'm also well aware that it's not that easy.
"For that reason, Rikyo, the princess, and the Eight Kinds of Divine Treasures are working hard."
"Right......"
"I killed too much."
Rikkyo and Stend's conjugal life is not sweet enough to flatter.
We're people who prioritize each other's work, and we respect each other for that other.
Relations were very good because of the same profession, the same workplace and the absence of conflict of thought.
Still, it wasn't sweet.
"I was meant to kill you."
On a dark bed, Rikyo was trying to sleep.
Managing his life by Danua, he was also set for bedtime.
Besides, Stend was also attached.
They slept in the same bed because they were a couple, but they never overlapped their skin.
"I used the emperor to kill the royal family."
"I've heard it many times, is that right?
"Oh well... I wonder what would have happened if I had been in the Arcana Kingdom from the beginning"
The Domino Empire created what is now Rikyo.
Even with his qualities, it was the domino empire that inspired him.
"It will be the influence of Mr. Suibok and Sopede that has become the mountain water now. I guess the festival was influenced by mountain water and batrabs. Makzo is getting Caputo better..."
The old Rikyo was not so different from the old festival.
"If I'd been picked up by the Arkana royal family from the beginning... don't think so."
"If that were the case, the Arkana kingdom would have left this country alone."
Even though my heart fits, the first people to accept Rikyo really made me go to Rikyo.
That they were all killed, that had a lot of impact on Rikyo.
"... I'm not the only cheat protagonist who thinks I can do something. If you're a young man in good shape, that's what we all think."
In a bedroom with no light, her husband talks as she is invited to drowsiness.
"So… it must not be unnatural to feel obliged to the person who took care of you"
For example, if the protagonist bought him a slave, he would be connected.
For example, to fall in love just because the protagonist gave you bread.
For example, having the protagonist take the revenge of his parents and pledge allegiance.
Rikyo also knows that they are never exaggerated.
When it was hard, I didn't ask anyone for help. Always supported by divine treasures.
I kept moving forward with anger and hatred at all times.
But it wasn't hard, and it wasn't painful.
"At least I... thank the Arcana Royal Family"
"Weak sound?
"No, I mean it. The only reason I'm losing is because of the kingdom of Arcana. I couldn't do anything by myself."
In Rikkyo's life, he was on time to meet someone he could respect and to meet someone he could appreciate.
Meeting the Domino Empire was never lucky. But we were definitely lucky to meet the Arcana royal family.
"Life is happiness with someone you can respect, someone you can appreciate. If I was fooling Masakazo... if I was watching Masakazo with the palette... that's what I thought."
We can't see each other's faces.
Maybe my husband is just saying one thing.
Still, my husband was telling the truth without lying or falsehood.
"Stend......"
"What?"
"I have not been apprenticed to the legendary Immortal, nor can I use all sorts of magic, nor can I have any outrageous magic. Not really... not in the kind of mood Pandora would like. But... I'm a trump card, too. If you put it on the field, you'll win."
Appreciation returns with merit.
Words full of confidence. Finally, the couple were trying to sleep in preparation for tomorrow's affairs.
I had the same dream and slept with the same face.
