Chapter 6, Episode 40 [Law and Violence] Part 3

"I'm embarrassed, but I don't understand one sincerity contained in the Baron's words right now... may I ask you to crush it a little more?

With the same doubts as the Marquis of Halcyon, Count Eisenbach inquires with a serene voice to your son Ryo Shiba.

Perhaps he wanted to avoid a situation where unnecessary stimulus would prevent the progress of interrogation any further.

At least, he's not willing to deny Ryo True Word head-on as a fool's paranoia.

There seems to be enough wisdom to avoid yesterday's two dances at least.

(Because it would be more efficient to take the other person's lifting legs after continuing the conversation... I thought I would get emotional and deny it...)

Ryo Jin only reviewed his enemies for a little while.

This place of interrogation is basically the same as war for Ryojin.

There is only one difference.

Only in that you need to defeat your opponent without the use of force and only with the blade of the word logic.

And if you think in a tactical perspective, the act of denying the other person's words emotionally from the ground up can only be described as a foolishness.

For example, it would be like ordering an all-army assault without any help.

What lies ahead is a ridiculous war of attrition.

If you put it on the House of Lords side, it's easier to poke a hole in that logic after listening to what they have to say, and more importantly, better to listen out, as long as you waste your time in a battle where you see the results.

Even the grown-ups who don't like it if they try it as a noble class, because Ryojin Goshiba is seen by the people of the Kingdom of Roselia as a [hero of salvation] due to his achievements in earlier civil unrest and the rescue of the Kingdom of Zaluda.

However, such an opponent's thoughts are only within the scope of calculation from Liang Zhen's perspective.

Ryo Jin mouths the words he was prepared for.

"Even if they say so... you're in trouble. I wonder if you will understand…"

With that said, Ryo Jin scratched herself with her fingers to show her with a troubled look.

It's like a father floating the most perplexing colour of a toddler.

But Count Eisenbach opens his mouth again, ignoring what can be termed its provocative attitude.

"Cheng Cheng, it may indeed be difficult for us ordinary people to understand the intentions of those who are called [Heroes of the Redemption]. But if you don't listen to me, you don't understand or understand, do you? Or is Lord Shiba insulting that we are fools who can't understand a word?

Ryo Jin laughed bitterly at the words.

If you mean it, I'd like to snort that it is, but if you mouth it, Liang Zhen will be accused of clearly insulting Count Eisenbach.

That's what Ryo Makoto has always said.

Naturally, I just have to deny it.

"Of course, I don't mean to."

"That was good. Together, we serve the royal family and support the kingdom. You can't defend your country by turning your back on your people because of the boring language."

Speaking of which, Count Eisenbach turned away from the gentle tone and glanced at Ryojin.

I guess it's an arithmetic that captures Liang Trun's showed verbal butt and pushes him off to a breath.

"Lord Goshiba was told earlier that he had raised a soldier to reward His Majesty's great grace. But the ten northern houses, which claim to be allies of the Earl of Salzberg and other houses, are famous houses that have been responsible for the defence of the north. Having exchanged spears with them, it is our totality to say that the defence of the North is in grave danger now that the Lord does not even know the life or death of those who were the Lord of each house. It is also contrary to the private struggle between nobles, which is forbidden by the national law of the Kingdom of Roselia. And it would obviously be the Hall of Michizawa that created this situation. You admitted it earlier... didn't you?

"Yeah, sure."

"In spite of this, does your Lord Shiba not understand why you have been summoned to this occasion?

I was filled with the temper that Count Eisenbach's words would not tolerate such a bad escape.

But Liangzhen shows such Count Eisenbach's temper with a gentle shoulder over the wind and all.

"Honestly, it's refreshing."

It's a grand attitude.

Or you might say arrogant or too much.

However, either way, I guess you didn't think Ryo Jin would deny it head-on to this point.

Count Eisenbach snorted for a moment.

But that's why we don't have the option to stop pursuing it now.

When he coughs gently, Count Eisenbach smiles at Ryo Makoto like he made a small fool of people.

"For those who are called [heroes of salvation] by the people, aren't you a lot of bad guesses? Or are you going to say that Lord Hero will not be bound by the laws of this country?

But that one word was what Ryo was waiting for.

"Yeah, you're right."

The voice echoed loudly into the hall.

I guess I never thought I'd be affirmed.

Everyone loses their words to Liang Zhen's words.

But the next moment, once again, the hall is filled with anger and curse.

"Stupid! What the hell are you doing!

"[Hero of the Redemption] and so on and have they been lifted and grown from the civilian population!

The hall was noisy in its condemnation of Ryojin rising one after the other.

But even against accusations from such surroundings, Ryo Jin doesn't feel any itching.

And claim your rights with dignity as you look around as if intimidating your surroundings.

"You all seem to be mistaken, but I'm not trying to break the law with pride in my accomplishments. It's just that I'm not obliged to obey from the beginning."

A good voice echoing in the hall.

The surroundings speak irrevocably to the temperamental words of a samurai who boasts exceptional power.

In the meantime, Marquis Halcyon opened his mouth as he watched the battle between Count Eisenbach and Liang Zhen's tongue in silence.

If you try to be a person who understands the meaning of Ryo True Word, it would be a natural reaction.

"What do you mean?

"You're right. I have received special consideration from His Majesty when I gave him the Waltenia Peninsula. Isn't it true that the head of the House of Lords, His Excellency the Marquis Halcyon, doesn't know about it? Or is it that you, the heavy town of the nation, really didn't know?

Even the face of the House of Lords, beginning with the Marquis of Halcyon, loses words in the attitude of Liang Zhen, who tells it like it is nothing.

"Stupid......"

Whose mouth is it?

But even if the person who unleashed the word did not understand it, it represented what everyone here felt.

Because if that is true, the very basis for holding this inquisition will disappear.

Such an ambient reaction elsewhere, Ryo Jan continues his words.

"I made a few wishes to Your Majesty when I was given the peninsula for the slightest credit I had made in the civil unrest ahead. This is a wish to fulfill our royal destiny to develop the Waltenian Peninsula, also known as the demonic realm where the Warcraft roamed and the pirates ruled the coast. Anyway, I'm a lowlife builder. I have no relatives to rely on, and I have no property. All I had to do to develop the peninsula was take care of it by His Majesty."

The moment I heard that word, the look on the face of the Marquis Halcyon changed.

I wondered what Liang Zhen was going to say.

"Legislative, military, diplomatic and economic freedoms…"

And there arose a twitch from the nobles around him, even unto the words that were as niggardly as whining from the mouth of the Marquis of Halcyon.

"Plus tax and military service exemptions..."

Shows the words of the Marquis Halcyon, supplemented by Ryo Shin.

That is too famous a joke for the nobles of the Kingdom of Roselia.

A grace twisted by Queen Lupis in agony after the end of the civil unrest ahead.

And it will be certain that the wishes spoken by the growers, given secluded areas, which cannot in the end be described as prizes of grace, were a demand for breaking, thinking from the common sense of the nobility, which values precedent and history.

Still, given the royal fate to develop undeveloped remote areas, such as the Waltenia Peninsula, as a territory, no matter how the nobles who dislike Liang Zhen could use their demands as a pretext to make a spear.

Needless to say why.

I expressed my bad opposition and feared that you would be able to develop and show the Waltenia Peninsula instead.

Well, given the position of Queen Lupis, who had just become king over the lack of a match between the Waltenian peninsula and the territory ruled by the existing nobility at the time, which was undeveloped on the boulders, I can't order such impotence after all.

Because if you did it badly, you could have breathed back the breath of the downsized aristocrats.

But you can't even say it's never going to happen.

(Besides, even if it was not possible until the territorial change, the possibility of becoming a feather providing part of the development funding for the peninsula was well considered)

The situation at the time came back to the back of the Marquis Halcyon's brain.

Even ordinary territories will require enormous funds for development.

Everyone who was a nobleman here knew that.

Not to mention investing in the notorious Waltenia Peninsula.

Now is the time to lay gold eggs due to various factors, but at the time it was just as remote a place as the magic realm.

Ryo Mitsuko says he made it a gold coin to Queen Lupis as a development fund and wished to provide a million pieces, but even if the full amount was paid by Queen Lupis, it was the surrounding opinion, starting with Marquis Halcyon, to say that only water was in the baking stone.

No nobleman wants to move on to that and put money in it first.

(If we were bad, we could have put our mouths in the math from the beginning...)

Now is the time for the Marquis Halcyon to also understand the genuine hostility between Lupis Roselianus and Ryo Gozai, but it would be impossible to foresee that much in the circumstances of the time.

Anyway, Ryo Shiba is the greatest credit in the civil unrest ahead that helped Queen Lupis, who was at a disadvantage, and made her sit on the throne.

There was no anticipation of a boulder trying to seal such a hero's presence in a secluded area, such as the Waltenia Peninsula, and kill him.

If that was the case, the possibility of deliberately making the unscrupulous demands true, pointing the spear at the rebellious nobles "then you do it instead," and further sharpening the power of the nobles was well thought out.

That is why the nobles kept their mouths shut and turned to the bystanders.

(Besides, this man did not refuse reinforcements to the Kingdom of Zaluda...)

If you try to be Marquis Halcyon, it feels honest to say that you will suffer from reinforcements to neighbouring countries, etc.

In any case, if the looting is not possible, there is little chance that the territory will be given by war.

As a thank you to the reinforcements, I would almost say your word if the king gave me a bottle of the treasure sword.

If you do poorly, it is possible that only words of gratitude will be given.

Even in honor, profits are thin.

Still, it's hard to say no if it's a royal fate.

(But why now... if you were to bring up the privilege of example, you could have brought it up then...)

However, as a result, Ryoujin Mitsuzai had the privilege of making that impossible king possible, but did not intentionally use it.

It was Liang Zhen who dared to go to reinforcements considering the situation on the western continent, but the Marquis of Halcyon had a strong aristocratic instinct to protect his family name.

But that's what drove the House of Lords and Queen Lupis' thoughts crazy this time around.

I couldn't realise the illusion that a man named Ryoujin Goshiba was under the control of the laws of the Kingdom of Roselia.

Everyone didn't pinch their mouth to Ryo True Word.

If we are shaken by the privileges granted by Queen Lupis, the king, we cannot say no to that.

Liang Zhen puts on a further chase, making sure of such an ambient reaction.

"That said, I, as I said earlier, am greatly indebted to His Majesty for his nobility while being a civilian. You can't just sit here and shut up about the crisis in this country."

"Crisis...... you say? You think that's why you lost the Earl of Salzberg house?

To Liang Zhen's words, Marquis Halcyon turned his hateful caged gaze.

But Ryo Jin nods flatly and shows it.

And he shook down the blade of the word head-on.
