Mia’s Diary

Fifth Month, 17th Day

Today’s dinner was stew with yellowmoon tomatoes and cake. The yellowmoon tomatoes tasted bad. But the cake was delicious.

Sixth Month, 10th Day

Today’s dinner was bread and roasted moonbow chicken. It tasted pretty good. But I cannot forgive the lack of dessert, though.

To help me in mission, Anne, my most loyal servant, was sent to me. She appeared like a messenger sent down from heaven, flying down from the sky. I was a little pissed that she ruined my cake with her appearance, but I quickly forgave her. She was really good to me until the very end in the previous timeline. I am very happy to be given the opportunity to reward her past loyalty. Above all, it is very encouraging to have her beside me. I immediately made her my personal maid.

Then I went to the library and did some research.

Eventhough I am wise, I can’t know everything happening and that is in the world. In fact, being able to admit that I don’t know everything is a sign of wisdom itself. I read a lot of technical books. Those thick books used by scholars. It was not a big deal actually; it wasn’t even worth boasting about. In addition to what I have learned, I incorporated just a bit of what Ludwig had told me before. Just a tiny bit. And then I, the wise one, put them together to analyse the crisis of the empire.

And now today. Today is such a wonderful day. I went to the Golden Moon Ministry to look for someone who could be my hands and feet. When I arrived there, that piece of... I mean... Ludwig was about to be demoted to the countryside. I rushed over and told them off. I saved the day. And then to my surprise, that four-eyed ash... I mean Ludwig, actually came over to praise me. When he heard my theory from my wise research, his eyes went wide, and he stared at me. Then he knelt down and praised me.

It was really refreshing. It was as if I had been reborn just for that moment today. Then he pledged his allegiance to me, so of course, I forgave him. I may not like him, but he did his very best for the Empire in the previous timeline. I know he can be a real nagging assho... I mean he can be really dedicated to his work... but I am merciful and generous.

I now have two loyal subjects at my side. At this rate, with someone as wise as me, saving the Empire should not be a problem at all.

Wow! Look at all this writing I have done! Such a beautiful diary entry. Maybe I also have a talent in poetry!
