Chapter 405
I shouldn’t have been blamed for it . I had to pay some ridiculous reparations too . Honestly, I was starting to get angry just thinking about it . It was all Veldora’s fault .
Recently, I had felt that Veldora was lacking in restraint, but I suppose he had really been doing his best . It could not be helped .
It was a good thing to be reminded of what would happen when he did forget .
The miracle did not end there .
“Now, it’s my turn! Elemental: The World!!”
Ramiris shouted triumphantly as she used her power .
She stole more than a little of my ‘Nihility Collapse’ energy and used it to transform into an adult .
A beautiful, young woman–of course, the reality was that she was the same disappointing Ramiris who had the heart of a child .
Ramiris sung .
And her beautiful voice woke up the sleeping spirits .
And then–
The earth was blessed and regained the appearance of its golden age .
Flowers bloomed on the ground . The air became thick and sweet . It became a paradise for the spirits that could not be seen with human eyes .
This way, they wouldn’t be forced to develop dangerous things . The gifts of nature would bring new life .
It was quite impressive .
Ramiris really was the queen of the spirits .
Had she stayed like this all of the time, there would be no reason to despise her . It was too bad!
I only lent her my power . I would take it back as soon as she was finished .
Of course, she would definitely complain about it, but it was not good for her to have this power when she hadn’t grown mentally .
It was for her own good .
And like that, the planet was reborn .
They would be able to live without fighting each other for food and water .
◇◇◇
Now…
It was unlikely that Veldora and Ramiris, who were preoccupied with their work, would need any protection, but I still left it to Beretta .
And then I turned back to Michelle, who I had been neglecting .
Michelle and the others had become speechless . Their eyes were glued to the scene before them .
“Ah, sorry to keep you waiting . ”
I said . Michelle turned to me with a look of surprise .
Yes, yes . I understand .
She was exasperated how ridiculous Veldora and the others were .
I could see a giant building behind them that had smoke rising from one of the upper floors . Apparently, it was also Veldora’s doing .
Michelle looked like she had a lot she wanted to say .
However, I was in no mood to hear it .
I had sworn never again to make the same mistake that I did with Ruminas .
Take your complaints to the man himself!
And so I decided to tell them what I wanted to say and that alone .
“I think this planet will be restored soon if you leave things to those two . I hope you can then forgive them for everything they did . ”
After I said this, all of the people including Michelle began to shake their heads vertically at an incredible speed .
This gesture seemed to have the same meaning here, so I guess they agreed .
So there would be no problems left between our worlds .
The only thing left was…
“Also, I have a suggestion if you don’t mind? It seems like you want to execute this Fudora guy . In that case, give him to me . I’ll punish him for you…”
That punishment would be being put in Ramiris’s research team .
I could expect advancements in our technology, which was more than I could ask for .
The airships in this world seemed like they could fly in space as well . The possibilities were endless .
Perhaps this was counting my eggs before they hatched, but…
“Pl-please wait! Would you please reconsider sentencing Lord Fudora to divine punishment!?”
A beautiful youth—called Alvin, said as he kneeled before me .
Divine punishment? That was an exaggeration .
I thought . But judging by their reactions, it seemed like the others feared me as well .
This was probably because Veldora had shown his abilities as a dragon .
They clearly saw me as being in the same class . Oh, well .
“No, no, no . It’s nothing like that…”
“Lord Fudora is…
I tried to explain, but Alvin began his passionate speech .
What it contained just confirmed what I had already guessed .
Almsbine, the previous emperor, had been suffering from a fatal disease, and so Fudora acted in his stead .
Fudora respected Almsbine and didn’t want his reputation to be tarnished . And so he decided to take all of the blame .
Well, it was a complicated problem .
The world was dying .
Should everyone die?
Or should a small minority survive?
When asked these questions, which answer was the right one?
An administrator’s job was to protect their people .
If was said that if you abandoned the citizens you were supposed to keep safe, then problems would arise for your government .
It would become a source of trouble in the future . An unbridgeable gap would exist between ruler and citizens .
As men of science, Almsbine and Fudora did not hesitate to choose the path of a small number of survivors .
It was the logical way to think, once you took emotion out of it .
However, it was a decision too heavy for a person to bear .
—However, they needed a sacrificial lamb .
That’s why Fudora was going to settle everything and entrust Michelle with his hopes for the future .
“Is that true, brother?”
“Aye, it is true, Michelle . ”
Alvin nodded to her as he finished his defense of Fudora .
Fudora was sagging as if drained of all of his strength .
And so I patted him on the shoulder and nodded to him reassuringly .
Then I turned to Michelle and the others and said plainly:
“Please don’t worry . There won’t be anything so extravagant as divine punishment . But I am taking this man with me so you can ascend to the seat of Emperor and unite the world . ”
If that’s what I have to say to get a new researcher! That was my true feelings on the matter .
However, their reaction was different from what I was expecting .
“Ohh… He will entrust the sovereign right to General Michelle…”
“Am I really worthy?”
“Huh? Uh, I think so?”
