277 - - three-episode report

'Oh, Master Dirk, I'm sorry to show you the embarrassing part .......'

Lilith, who had been at work for more than three days without sleep, was in such a dangerous state that her speech was not functioning properly and she seemed ready to vanish at any moment.

By taking the "SSSR Sleepless Night Pill," her insomnia was relieved and she regained her usual expression.

Lilith seems to remember her attitude from earlier, and sits on the sofa set in her office and bows her head in embarrassment.

I, sitting on the other side of the table, let out a smile under my mask and lightly waved my hand.

'Don't worry about it. I understand that you are busy. In fact, if I had given Lilith-sama the "sleepless night medicine" earlier, she would not have had to go through any unnecessary trouble. ......

Unnecessary hardship!　I am grateful to Master Dirk, but I would never think such a thing!

Lilith gives a flabbergasted denial.

Yume (fake) put tea on the table for me and Lilith, and we moved on to the main topic.

Lilith-sama, do you have any information?

No, I am sorry. ...... I have not received any specific information about the Majin Nation. It's good that you forced your father and brother to abolish them, but they are also busy getting a foothold .......

Lilith divulges somewhat self-deprecatingly.

She vents about her brother Claw, her father, the former king, as if to vent her grievances.

Her brother Claw is locked up in a villa.

She is trying to persuade him to give up the throne and spend the rest of his life quietly, but he will not listen to her.

He is now saying that he is determined to regain the throne.

The elder brother Claw's faction has not completely disappeared.

A part of it still remains, and they are shouting loudly, "Let's rescue my brother, carry him up, and restore the righteous racial kingdom.

Lilith was crowned queen of the race after following the procedure at the Council of Principality, but the fire was still smoldering around the first prince Claw.

On the contrary, his father, the former king, declared that he would not return to the racial kingdom capital from the principality, but would spend the rest of his life in another city.

By physically distancing himself from the capital, the center of racial politics, he is appealing with all his might that he is no longer involved in politics.

The nobles belonging to the king's faction seem to have decided that it would be difficult to support him, and many of them are considering whether to join the Lilith or the Claw faction.

There was just one problem.

Lilith complained with a gloomy expression.

I am very grateful that your father insists that he is no longer involved in politics by physically distancing himself from the capital and going into hiding. ...... In reaction to being relieved of his heavy responsibilities, he started wasting money on food, drink, and entertainment like a fool. ......

Until now, due to my heavy responsibilities, I ate little, avoided alcohol, and could not afford to indulge in entertainment.

However, Lilith's accession to the throne as queen has freed her from her heavy responsibilities.

Perhaps it is because she is enjoying freedom for the first time in a long time that she has become so carefree.

Thanks to this, the former king, who had lost weight due to stress, now tends to gain weight.

What's more, he is now a bit overweight.

"It seems that he has recently become infatuated with one of the high-class prostitutes, demanding money to go to the store, money for gifts, and money to pay for her to be his future wife. ...... I am dizzy from lack of sleep, and I have to take care of my father's lower body. I can't believe I have to make paperwork decisions for ....... It's not something I'd expect my daughter to be doing at her age, and no matter how much I've been restraining her, it's still too much ......

Lilith's whole body exudes something like a black aura.

The first thing that comes to my mind is that it's better than being rebellious like your brother, and I'm very happy that your father has learned to think for himself,......, but I can't believe that he would charge his daughter for the renovation of the mansion, gift jewelry and clothes because he wants to take on a prostitute. ......," the second half of the book begins mumbling words that are more like curses than complaints.

I don't know what to say to this, so I digress.

I don't know what to say to this, so I digress. "Oh, speaking of your brother, he hasn't given up on the throne yet, and it seems that people around him are a bit impatient.

............"

Lilith, who had been mumbling complaints about her father at my suggestion, turns to look at me.

She responded not as a girl of her age who had been complaining about her father, but as the queen of the racial kingdom.

She said, "...... No, thank you for your kind words, but there is no need for you and Dirk to interfere. This is an internal matter within the racial kingdom. We cannot rely on Dirk and the others to help us."

Lilith hardens her fists on her knees.

We are grateful to you for accepting Nono and the others--the outcasts--but we can't afford to be lenient any longer. ......

Not only the "Giant Tower," but also the Beastmen Alliance, the Queen Elf Kingdom, and the Dwarf Kingdom accepted the outcasts.

Many of them despaired and took their own lives.

In order not to let the sacrifices of such people go to waste, he looks at me as if to say that he cannot stop the reform.

Since it would be wild to make any further suggestions, I quietly withdrew.

Just at that moment, there is a knock at the door of the office.

Yume (fake) answers.

I had come to visit as an adventurer wearing a mask for such an occasion.

Lilith knew this, too, and called me "dark" instead of "light.

Yume (fake) lets the visitor in.

The other party was a civil servant man who entered the room with a somewhat impatient look on his face.

He had a bundle of papers in his hand and was about to tell Lilith something in her ear.

He was about to say something in Lilith's ear, but then he said, "You don't have to tell only me. Only those who are involved in this project are here.

Lilith assures us.

In her own way, she wants to say that she has nothing to hide from us.

I accept that as sincerity.

The civil servants look at us with concern at Lilith's words, but we cannot ignore the queen's statement and make a report.

What was the content of the report?
