NovelEnglishIn the Rogard Empire, the prime minister did not have as much authority as in other countries, as the emperor had controlled most of the country for generations.
The prime minister had a position of supporting the Emperor, albeit only minimally. Still, even with minimal authority, the Prime Minister was still the second most powerful person in the country, after the Emperor.
After the defeat in the war, however, the current Prime Minister, who had demonstrated his ability as a hand and foot of the former Emperor Shendra, was no longer in charge of running the country, and had been working behind the scenes with the Demon King and the other kings, mainly in the area of adjusting interests.
He started working as a lackey for the rulers of other countries to implement their requests in his own country.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMany members of the Senate had been saying that he had been “bought off” and “started wagging his tail to other races,” but… his choice was the best one.
Considering the future of the nation, His Highness the Prime Minister continued to do more for the country than anyone else.
“His Majesty Yuki has almost no political authority. He himself said that he is incapable of doing such things, and I think I agree with him when he says this. In other words, he is a mere decoration in terms of position. …Nevertheless, all the rulers who have defeated this country are concerned about his movements and are trying to avoid his displeasure.” (Helger)
“…Just because of his power alone, is that right?” (Imperial Guard A)
“Yes. That’s why I think he has more qualities to be an emperor than anyone else. He is a champion of a great nation, a leader of a great race, and a ruler who cannot be ignored.” (Helger)
There was no doubt that the Demon Emperor Yuki was a different kind of ruler.
It was most likely because of that reason that the Senate President Cyrus, who was now lying besides the Imperial Guards, made a different choice than the Prime Minister.
He saw the danger of his uniqueness and decided that the intervention of other races had to be eliminated.
As the structure of this country where the authority of the Emperor was strong, the Senate, like the Prime Minister, also had relatively weak authority.
Therefore, they lacked the power to overrule the policies and measures of the Demon King and other rulers who were reforming the country in their capacity as [Representatives of the Emperor].
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSo he may have thought to use this opportunity to resolve that… with an act of terrorism as the means to do so.
In addition, he may have brought Senator Alveiro into the mix to completely dismantle the [Former Emperor Shendra’s Faction], which had been standing in his way, but it really boggles one’s mind.
In the end, this man sought power.
He wanted to get rid of anything that stood in the way of his own advancement. He wanted to get rid of those who stood in his way, including ordinary citizens who had nothing to do with him.
–Eventually, the matter came to a conclusion.
All the monsters that Cyrus had put out in a vicious attempt to get rid of the Imperial Guards were eliminated, and they were just lying around as corpses.
Yuki couldn’t help but comment, “Ha, look at this… The Rogard Empire fought against the world! Although it lost, it showed its supremacy to the world! And when I wondered what kind of monsters the Senate President of that country would come up with…it turned out to be only this kind of crap. It’s quite lousy, isn’t it?”
“Oh, you monster…! Monsters like you will surely bring misfortune to this country just by existing! You are a plague!” (Cyrus)
“How can you say that, when you are the one who is acting so stupidly and poorly? It is true that I have no ability to rule as an Emperor. I don’t know politics, I don’t know how to move people, and if I were to start doing something as an Emperor, this country would probably be in a mess. But still, I’m better than you…way much better…” (Yuki)
