Chapter 108: Masatsugu’s fate.
Translator: Mr.Nobody
We back to Masatsugu.
“This is amazing. As expected of you, King Masatsugu.”
One of the ministers said that.
The other ministers also nodded in agreement to that.
But
“Haa.”
I just sighed.
“All I did was improve the literacy rate. It’s not much.”
I said that and shook my head.
“What are you saying! Even though you’ve made a large undertaking!? Noo, it’s to the point where I can say that it was the work of God!?”
The one who raised his voice now was Bebus the head minister.
He’s an excellent man, so the management of the country under the previous incompetent King was established under hidden gems like him.
There were incompetent ministers also but I fired them and reshuffled them.
So Bebus was put on top of the bureaucracy.
The man who’s on top of the bureaucratic system has a drawback that shouts the first thing it comes on his mind.
Sigh, even if he truly thinks that but shouting ‘God’ close to my ear is nothing except annoyance.
“I don’t know about Gods, but humans save other humans. The opposite is true too. Just like the previous King who ruined the country. Enough of this, isn’t it about time for all of you to take care of your own country?”
The head minister Bebus had a surprised expression.
“It’s as you say.”
He said that and bowed his head.
“It’s exactly as Masatsugu has said since you’re the one who cared for most of our national politics. Protecting the country, keeping the people healthy, managing peace these basics were not achieved. If King Masatsugu was here a bit earlier then this country wouldn’t have gone so astray.”
I nodded to him.
“Naturally, that’s right. But, if you ask for too much then the national politics won’t even begin.”
I said that and shrugged my shoulders.
“I understand your feelings of wanting me here, but it’s the opposite. Right now me being here as a human being should be thought of as one in a million chance.”
‘I understand’ He nodded regretfully.
“Us wanting King Masatsugu to always be on the throne, it would be something like a child’s tantrum. Miracles are always desired. There’s no such convenient story. In the first place if King Masatsugu always came then the people’s expressions and country’s form will also be different.”
There’s even more regret. I can understand his reasoning. But, I’m only one person and relying on me will hinder their growth and being able to stand on their own feet.
Are those people even living then?
That’s why overdoing it is bad.
For example if God helped humans, then humans wouldn’t have walked on their own nor progress further.
That applies to me as well.
If a human being like me helps then they’ll become dependent on me. It’s a duty of the superiors that they have to avoid when they look at the balance of the world.
You’re not able to be next to them when you’re walking together.
Because there’s a big destiny in me.
At the time of that conversation.
“It’s terrible!”
The scout opened the door with a bang and vigorously entered the throne room.
“What is it! You’re in front of King Masatsugu!”
Bebus’s angry roar came.
That’s a poor move, Bebus.
There’s a lot of things that you still need to study.
No matter if you’re top of the domestic affairs, you still have more to go.
Looking at the soldiers expression it happened exactly as I thought it would.
More importantly
“No, it’s okay.”
I stand up and say that like to stop him.
“But.”
“It’s okay. There’s no need to worry so much for etiquette like it would destroy the country. I’m a king who prefers quality over formality.”
That’s also what you people recognize.
I said that and Bebus once again bowed his head in deep admiration.
Like this, I can train the country with every action. Sigh, it’s a difficult thing. Why does someone like me who’s a high school student have to carry the kingdom.
“Then, what happened?”
While huffing the scout prostrated himself.
“The city near our national border has disappeared! According to the citizens who somehow had survived said that a too serious girl was just walking and the surroundings began rotting and with her breath the houses caught on fire. It’s just like… like…”
“You can say that it is totally like the world ending, isn’t it?”
The scout had a surprised expression at my words.
“How were you able to understand! My King!”
And he yelled such.
“Now, I wonder how. I just.”
I stood up while pulling my cloak.
“I felt it.”
“You felt it?”
“There’s something?”
The scout and Bebus asked.
They have expectant expressions for my next words of how I understood the mysterious situation.
Sigh, the answer is obvious.
“Naturally, the fate of this world will soon be decided upon.”
Bebus, the scout and the rest of the people in the room had surprised expressions. They’ve noticed. That’s right, the people in front of them is not just a King.
I’m also a saviour who’ve come from a different world with the fate of the world in his hands.
Well, it’s a natural thing though.
I was thinking in the inside.
“While I’m at protecting the orphanage the world will be saved as well.”
While thinking that I was preparing for a swift departure.
This worlds fate… no, the fate of the orphanage… will be the focus of me competing.
