NovelEnglishReid, who understood that his role was finished, did not want to spend another second with these people, so he left the place under the pretext of [obtaining Information].
And just as the imperial family was out of sight, one of the maids working at the palace – a maid who belongs to the intelligence organization [Arbent] – arrived beside him to serve as a guide.
The organization was founded by the former emperor Shendra and continued to protect the country even in his absence.
Reid knew her identity because they had already met in advance as liaison personnel.
“Thank you for your help, Reid-sama.” (Maid)
“No need to thank me, this is all for the sake of our country as well, after all. So with that in mind, this is about as good as it gets. But, well… you guys will be in a tough situation after this.” (Reid)
“We’re used to it.” (Maid)
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe maid smiled after her reply, with Reid commenting “You’re a pro,” with a small smile on his face.
“So, how did the dreaded third terrorist attack go down? So, have the terrorists already been dealt with?” (Reid)
“Well, we did expect the target of the attack to summon monsters, so His Majesty Yuki, the Demon Emperor, should be dealing with the situation now. However, it appears that the number of monsters prepared by the enemy was greater than previously expected.” (Maid)“Hm, well, if they manage to summon a monster that Yuki could not defeat, then there would be no one in this country who could defeat that monster, so I shall assthat everything will be fine. After all, if the worst did happen, not only this country, but all the humans and humanoid races would have to face it.” (Reid)
Reid smiled pleasantly and showed no sign of concern.
The maid seemed to hesitate for a moment before asking, “Reid-sama…it appears that you and Yuki are getting along well. Is there any secret to your friendship with him?”
“A secret? Well, then, I can only give you one piece of advice. –Think of him as an ordinary young guy.” (Reid)
“Ordinary, you say?” (Maid)
“Yes. He is just an ordinary person who has more power than others.” (Reid)
The Demon Emperor Yuki definitely possessed power.
Compared to when Reid first met him, he had somehow gained such overwhelming strength that he no longer had anyone to match him in the humanoid races, but that was only one aspect of his evaluation.
Reid, who had the experience of having his daughter saved and had a connection with Yuki since then, knew him well.
He knew that the Demon Emperor Yuki was just a good-natured young man who had recently made up his mind to beca father and was moving forward step by step, even though he was worried about many things.
However, those in this country who were unaware of this were probably subconsciously afraid of the Demon Emperor Yuki.
In this world there existed many creatures that could act like natural disasters. Humans were naturally afraid of such creatures as they had little to no means of dealing with them. But, somehow, one of such creatures, the Demon Emperor Yuki, had now bectheir emperor.
An existence with such overwhelming power that even the former emperor Shendra, who was a great leader, was defeated by him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIndeed, if one did not know Yuki’s personality, it was probably understandable to be afraid of him.
…Well, as someone who knew Yuki to a certain extent, Reid almost laughed a little when he heard Yuki say and do things that made people afraid of him.
“There is no need to feel threatened or afraid. If you just interact with him as a good neighbor, he will also respond in that way. Because he is just an ordinary young man. I’m sure it’s not easy because of his position.”
“… As I thought, you are a powerful ruler for a reason, Reid-sama.”
“Hahaha, you say sinteresting things. I am pretty sure that there is no other king as mediocre as I am.”
Reid, who said so, however, did not know how much the value of “someone who can speak with the Demon Emperor Yuki on equal terms” is.
Unbeknownst to him, he was already seen by those around him as a representative of humanity.
