Infinite Gacha - Chapter 407

"Wow, thank you so much for coming all the way here, Miss May."

No, it is my pleasure to be greeted personally by Her Majesty Queen Lilith.

In the office of a small mansion in the capital of the Kingdom of the Races, Lilith is in the office of the "SUR Seeker's Maid, Mei Level," the one hand of Light, the master of the "Abyss. 9999" and greet each other.

Only May, Lilith, and Yume (fake), who serves as a waiter, are in the office.

The others have already maneuvered to stay away from the office.

undefinedThis meeting was not an official one, but an unofficial one.

It is a behind-the-scenes meeting that can never be recorded.

Therefore, it is not the "Witch of the Gigantic Tower" who is acting in public, but Mei, who is Light's one hand, who is secretly present as the representative of the lowest level of the "Abyss.

After greeting each other, they sat down on the sofa across the table.

Yume (fake) finished arranging the tea and moved to the wall, which was the cue for Mei to present the documents.

The materials we have obtained on our own," she said. We hope you will take a look at them first.

I'm awed. Let me take a look.

The words dance on paper of a quality unimaginable on earth.

Naturally, the contents of documents submitted to a secret meeting could not possibly be interesting.

Lilith's face turns pale as she turns the pages.

She skims through the pages to the end, then returns the papers in her hands to the table with a pale, bloodless look on her face.

She looks so pale that May is concerned.

She says, "If ...... you are not feeling well, I will visit you again later."

No, no, no, no, I'm fine. Just give me a little time to calm down and I'll be fine. ......

I understand. Please let us know when you feel more at ease.

When Lilith gets May's permission, she clasps her hands together, presses them to her forehead, and meditates.

She tried to calm herself down in a position as if she were a devout believer praying to God.

--After about three minutes, she opened her eyelids and cut out with a somewhat regained look on her face.

'Thank you for the papers. But, Mei-sama, are the contents of ...... true?"

Of course. Of course. Some of the evidence has already been suppressed. I hesitate to bring them before Her Majesty Princess Lilith because they are dangerous, but if you wish..."

Thank you for your concern. Those words alone are sufficient."

Lilith falls silent again.

The document stated that - in order to prevent Lilith's "Inauguration Ceremony of the Queen of the Racial Kingdom," explosive magic tools have already been sold to stores in the capital by those of Lilith's brother Claw's faction.

Taking advantage of the ears gathered by the explosion, they broke into the castle, where security was thin, and assassinated Lilith.

It was also written that a plan to recover Lilith's brother Claw, who is being held captive in the "Isolation Tower," was most likely being formulated.

(We knew from the report that your brother's faction was planning something, but ...... we never thought that they would place explosives in the capital. Do you really think that you care what happens to your people?　(We are not of another species, but of the same race. ......)

Lilith was aware that she was resented by the opposing faction, but she had no idea that they were considering her assassination at the expense of even her own people and grass.

If you permit me to ...... bring you the heads of the opposing nobles and the former First Prince of Claw right now?"

......?

Lilith gasps at May's words.

If she utters, even in jest, 'I allow it,' she will not hesitate to cut off the heads of the opposing nobles and Lilith's own brother Claw and lay them before her.

Since they have no means to oppose May and her friends, "death" is certain.

Above all.

"Oh, wait, Miss May!　If we cut off the heads of dissenting aristocrats without charge, a backlash is inevitable!　It will put a crack in the future governance of the country!"

Isn't that enough of a charge?"

As May pointed out, when explosives are intentionally dispersed in the capital, the charges are more than sufficient.

Lilith, however, is not convinced.

The charges are certainly sufficient, but I think the evidence is a little weak to denounce them publicly. If we were to mention it publicly, people would say, 'Lilith staged the bombing to incriminate herself. Most of them would probably kick it out since they have the evidence, but it would be a problem if even a small part of the population became suspicious."

If Lilith is mistakenly accused of staging this incident in order to get rid of her own brother Claw, an anti-patriot who is standing in her way, it could create the suspicion that they might be next in line to get in her way and have the evidence fabricated and disposed of.

From Lilith's point of view, she wanted to avoid that.

Besides, emotionally, she did not want to kill her own brother.

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

Lilith inhales and exhales - not as Lilith personally, but as "Queen of the Racial Kingdom".

'...... so the explosives they disperse will be collected in secret, while some will be deliberately detonated to disguise the chaos, while avoiding causing human casualties. We should also deliberately lure the anti-nobles who are after my life into the castle."

Lilith tells us with the calm expression of a ruler.

I think we should create evidence that 'they are the root of all evil' so that even third parties can see it, and propagate it throughout the country."

In other words, if the anti-Lillith nobles are making a move, they dare to miss it on purpose.

They are not just going to let it go, but they are going to control it so that there will be no damage, and at the same time, they are going to have a third party produce some flashy evidence that can be easily understood by a third party.

In fact, it was the anti-Lillith nobles who sprayed the explosives, and since it was predictable that they would actually cause damage and probably storm into the castle to take their own lives, waiting inside the castle and seizing them would literally be "irrefutable evidence".

With this much evidence, there would be no doubt about Lilith.

Of course, we will also tighten security to prevent your brother from escaping from the "quarantine tower" during this chaos. If all goes well, we will be able to eliminate all of your brother's supporters, both in name and in reality.

'But,' Lillis continued.

'It is impossible for us to fully solve the problem on our own. So, May-sama, please lend us your help."

Lilith sits on the sofa and bows her head.

I understand," she said. No problem. I will cooperate with you in any way I can.

Oh, thank you!"

Hearing May's reply, Lilith raised her head and broke into a smile.

She had already decided what she would say in that case, since Lilith's proposal was within her expectations.　Therefore, she was able to respond immediately.

May and Lilith decided on a policy and began discussing the details.
