The Demon Prince goes to the Academy - Chapter 475

Chapter 475

I couldn’t leave Edina, so I’ve stuck with it until now. As long as there’s someone to replace me, I intend to leave Edina as soon as possible.

After getting ready, I planned to leave the next day.

the night before departure.

Charlotte came.

Charlotte seemed very embarrassed at first when I shared the bedroom with Harriet, but she didn’t ask anything.

With the feeling that it was rather difficult because I didn’t ask anything.

You seem to think so if you make that decision.

After leaving the bedroom, on the terrace, Charlotte asks.

“I have a question for you, Reinhardt.”

Charlotte asks me.

“What?”

“I want you to make it clear where my authority starts and ends.”

Does it mean that he wants to know for sure how far he can touch himself?

After all, Charlotte is a rolled stone.

No matter how confident he was that he would do better than me in the system that had been working somehow for two years, he suddenly sat down in the king’s seat.

Charlotte looks out the window with a calm expression.

“I think we can definitely have dominion over the demons and vassals. but as you know The Senate and other public servants are your friends and collaborators. So my command or control will not work.”

“… … I guess so.”

“I am glad you believe in me and I will try to live up to those expectations. But you’re leaving Edina for a long time at this time… … . It can inevitably lead to discord between me and others.”

Charlotte was telling the truth.

The senate is not actually the ones I rule.

Liana Olivia Harriet and Airi are my friends.

Even if they can control the people below them, they are nothing short of contributors to the founding and may ignore the regent’s orders.

In the case of Liana and Olivia, they even think badly of Charlotte.

The two of them were very likely to rebel if Charlotte suddenly appeared and started to say things.

That’s why my decision to leave Edina before the Regent’s reign has stabilized is risky.

Charlotte is saying that infighting might happen.

In Edina, Charlotte has only one power.

Declaration of my support as the Demon King.

Nothing has been proven yet to dominate the whole of Edina with just that one.

“Tell me that I have no command or control over the Four Heavenly Kings, and I won’t say anything about their affairs.”

It is for this reason that I am not asking for authority, but asking for clarification of authority.

I hope that Charlotte’s regency will take the form of full succession to my authority.

But I also agree that Olivia and Liana, who have been working hard on building Edina up until now, may feel offended by Charlotte’s sudden appearance.

Even if you know rationally that it is right to follow the will, it will be difficult for you to accept it mentally.

In fact, the reason I had no problems with them was because I had absolutely nothing to fight about. I generally agreed with my opinion, and if I thought my opinion was wrong, we talked until we came to a mutual understanding.

In Harriet’s case, she still tried to help Charlotte with both her mind and heart.

In the case of Airi, since she seems to feel the influence of the Archdemon on Charlotte, there shouldn’t be any problem.

But Liana hates Empire and Olivia hates Charlotte for not trusting me.

I was concerned about the possibility of friction between the two.

What should I do?

Above the Four Heavenly Kings.

In other words, if she told her not to try to control the Four Heavenly Kings and the Senate, Charlotte would be half-assed.

I need someone who can fully replace me, not half.

So, to put it bluntly, I don’t need a regent, I need a demonic queen who can completely replace me.

“I know my subject. So to the extent that I have no authority to order or interfere with them… … .”

“stop.”

But when I heard Charlotte say that, I cut off.

“You are instead of me. Whole.”

I look into Charlotte’s eyes and say that.

“You should think of yourself as another demon lord, not a regent. And so it should be.”

Charlotte needs orders, not favors and persuasion.

i hope it

I want you to be my complete substitute.

Liana and Olivia.

Emotional friction may arise between the two, and political problems may arise.

Olivia and Riana may even come to think that they feel sorry for me beyond their dislike for Charlotte.

If they feel sorry for me, I will be sorry. And you may have to apologize.

However, this is not a political arena in the corner of the room, but state administration.

Just because Olivia has done so much for me, and because Liana has sacrificed so much for me, doesn’t give them the right to disregard my regency.

If they intentionally ignore and exclude Charlotte, I will inevitably be disappointed with the two who deliberately interfered with the running of state affairs just because of that feeling.

In the first place, I don’t even think that these two are just that.

They will recognize Charlotte’s need.

And Charlotte will be recognized for her need.

You have to prove that you have that ability.

“So grab hold of it somehow.”

“… … .”

At my words, Charlotte silently looks up at me.

As soon as he becomes regent, the king who should support him is vacant.

Just as I started out with difficulty, Charlotte must lead state affairs among those who hate her.

I didn’t sit you down to do the easy thing, so even if it’s difficult, I’m telling you to be my complete substitute somehow.

Not on command.

“yea, I got it.”

Charlotte nodded.

It’s a bit strange to think like this.

Charlotte’s overly obedient appearance was a bit cute.

The next day.

Reinhardt has gone somewhere.

“how… … . Where are you going and why won’t you tell me… … .”

Harriet sighed as she looked at the spot where Reinhardt, who had disappeared by teleportation, had just stood.

When the king left behind the regent, there were Harriet, Charlotte, and Olivia.

Harriet returns to her original job of researching magic after being assigned a new scribe after the handover has been completed to some extent.

The reason why the demon king set up a regent was not only to free himself, but also to free Harriet, who used his brain instead.

Charlotte looked at the spot where Reinhardt had gone.

And naturally, he couldn’t help but feel the gaze Olivia was looking at him.

Charlotte stares at Olivia.

“Do you have anything to say? Professor Olivia.”

“… … .”

Olivia looks at Charlotte in silence at Charlotte’s question. As if trying to measure something.

Charlotte couldn’t read the hostility in that gaze.

obviously not yet.

“Reinhardt is so nice.”

“… … .”

“Because he’s so kind that he’s like an idiot. It’s not like you believe in someone you shouldn’t trust. I was thinking about that.”

Charlotte looked at Olivia with such direct words.

“What can I do if I try to betray Reinhardt?”

“… … .”

“If I deliberately ruin Edina, where can I go next?”

At that, Olivia was speechless.

“There’s no way that I, who was saved by Reinhardt, could return to the Empire because I was almost executed in the Empire.”

Harriet listened quietly to the conversation.

“So there’s no reason I should intentionally ruin this place, and there’s no reason I should.”

“There are people who want to ruin others even if they ruin themselves. There are quite a few people like that these days.”

At Olivia’s words, Charlotte nodded.

“is it so. I guess so.”

Olivia had seen many people who tried to kill the demon king even at the cost of their own lives.

A hatred so deep that it wants to get rid of itself even to the point of destroying itself.

“You won’t believe me, and you can think so. Because I have committed sins.”

“… … .”

“I will try my best.”

Charlotte lowers her tail.

I didn’t even want to fight in the first place.

There is no comparison.

With the people who are here because they believed in Reinhardt.

I couldn’t trust Reinhardt, but with myself whom Reinhardt saved in the end.

The rank has to be different.

“It’s greedy to want support, but please don’t think that I’m doing something to ruin something.”

Charlotte bowed deeply to Olivia.

“I hope to go along well.”

“… … .”

A former princess bows her head to the person who made a greater decision than herself in a sense of guilt.

Olivia narrowed her eyes at that unrestrained bow.

“… … Why can’t you have more luck?”

Saying that it would have been better if she acted rather annoyingly, Olivia kicked the rolling stones and went out of her way.

– Ace! it’s annoying!

Even clapping sounds when your hands and feet match.

First of all, I was angry, but the other person didn’t give me an excuse to be angry, so Olivia, who was full of grumpy, shouted in anger.

Charlotte looks at Harriet.

“Thank you so far, Harriet. We ask well.”

“Oh no, why are you lowering your head… … .”

Harriet waved her hands wildly in bewilderment.

* * *

I don’t know much about Ellen’s home town.

The border area at the southwest end of Kernstadt. It’s a village in the mountains, and I heard from Ellen that many people don’t even know such a village exists. It also points out the location on the map, so I know the outline, but it is too broad.

The name of the town is Lizaira.

Of course, there was no place name on the map.

Originally, there might have been people in the nearby village who knew where Lizaira was. But after the Gate incident, all those small towns perished.

Therefore, we must abandon the expectation that we will be able to find someone who knows the exact location of Lizaira.

There is no knowing whether Lizaira will be fine after this incident.

However, I don’t really know, but it is estimated that Ellen’s mother is stronger than Saviolin Tana.

I don’t know anything specific about Lizaira and Ellen’s mother.

Ellen’s mother’s name is Luna Artorius.

And he called himself by the name of Ilwoldangju (日月當主).

Therefore, it is assumed that one of them may be related to the long-disappeared Sundays and Mondays of the Lord Vampire clan.

And he said that the original principle was not to interfere in the affairs of the world.

It is unknown for what reason, but if that statement is correct, it can be assumed that even after the gate incident broke out, there would be no movement in Ilwoldang.

Could Lizaira have escaped the aftermath of the Gate incident?

Is Luna Artorius really not intervening in this situation?

Will I be able to find Lizaira?

I don’t know anything yet.

You can’t directly ask Ellen where Lizaira is. It’s better not to meet Ellen if possible. It’s not even a situation where that’s possible.

The reason for wanting to meet Luna Artorius is simple.

I don’t know how to convince her, but I try to ask her for advice. The transcendental power she possesses that even I cannot understand.

I don’t know how, and I have no reason for her to teach me at all.

At this rate, I have to use Alsbringer in the final fight.

I don’t want to die that way.

Perhaps the situation can be resolved without using Alsbringer, but if you have to fight Ellen later for some reason, you will never be able to defeat Ellen in your current state.

It doesn’t change the truth that at least I’ll have a choice if I’m equal to or better than Ellen.

You should at least get to the master class before the final fight. If you can, you should have more power than that.

There are excellent wizards around me, but none have reached the master class.

As far as I know, the strongest person is Saviolin Tana.

However, in this situation, it is impossible not to laugh at asking her for lessons.

That’s why you need to find Luna Artorius, who is presumed to be stronger than her.

It was really just a vague thing.

To find Ellen’s mother and force her to make her stronger.

to this situation.

in this state of affairs.

Isn’t it too funny to do in a situation where everything is ruined like this.

Monsters roam somewhere on the continent, but with the mountain range southwest of Kernstadt in front of me, I felt nothing but a vague feeling.

“this… … . What… … ?”

It’s a mountain village.

In front of his eyes was a mountain range that was like a fortress full of strange rocks.

When I heard it from Ellen, it just felt like a village in the back of the neighborhood, but there was a huge alpine area.

Geographically, this area was called the Sren Mountains.

Ellen… … .

Shouldn’t it be called a mountain village that is hidden in a place where even the word “heap in the middle of the mountain” is not enough… … .

Come to think of it, Ellen has always been a little different from the average person.

He hadn’t thought it would be easy to find Lizaira.

As we have already checked on the map, this range of mountains is incredibly vast.

And even at first glance, there was no way the road to Lizaira was properly built in such a rugged terrain.

-Uwaaaaaaa

I hear the cries of unknown monsters in the mountains.

Even inside that mountain range, monsters wandering the continent had already entered.

Shouldn’t it take days, weeks, or months to wander?

Lizaira is Nabal, and can I find Lizaira in the mountains where I don’t know when and where the monster might try to kill me?

Where do you sleep and where do you get food?

Even if it’s to prepare for the final fight.

I came to play a survival game in an alpine area teeming with monsters out of nowhere.

“no way… … .”

Yeah, when was it ever easy to solve?

What I’m trying to find is that I somehow found it and got it.

A powerful necessity is at work in me.

I’m trying to find Lizaira and I’m trying to meet Ellen’s mother.

So you can find it and you can meet it.

I step into a huge, rugged mountain range.

To avoid sacrificing my life in the final fight.

You must become stronger.

certainly.
