"And since the adults called me that just now, then I don't mind doing it like a witch—"

"—threats, warnings, toughness, shows of strength, then tell demands."

"Request... Then, what is your request, Lady Emilia?"

McClutford took the initiative to ignore the witch mentioned by Emilia and her clearly expressed 'threat' behavior, but asked Emilia's request.

"I have only one request, and this one is for my... knight."

"Subaru, he already told you all."

Emily paused, and continued: "There is no doubt that I am neither a 'witch' nor a 'half-demon'. It doesn't matter what other people think, but everyone... it is best to deal with me in a fair and just manner. For good."

"There is no doubt that I, Emilia... am the Dragon Priestess, one of the candidates for the throne, and has the possibility of becoming a king. This..."

"Also please don't forget!"

Chapter 175 Roswaal and Subaru

"Ah, it's finally over..."

Standing outside the royal castle, Subaru couldn't help stretching.It can be said that it was very difficult when he was in the parliament before. After all, that situation can be said to be extremely unfavorable to Emilia. It can be said that his head is running at a high load if he wants to find a way to break the situation.

"Thank you for your hard work, Subaru-kun."

Roswaal appeared from nowhere, walked to Subaru's side and said with a smile: "Perfect helped Lord Emilia win the necessary fairness, and also made those adults dare not say anything against you in the future. Lord Emilia's words."

"Although it looks impulsive and crazy, but if you think about it carefully, every step is to fight for the necessary interests for Lord Emilia, and relying on the dragon, those people can't say anything to refute. It can be said that it is very Good plan."

"...you didn't attend the reception?"

Instead of answering Roswaal's question, Subaru asked instead.

After Emilia's speech about what kind of changes she hopes the country will have and the future if she becomes the king is over, it is followed by the speech of the last dragon priestess, Felut.

Perhaps it was Crusch, Priscilla, Anastasia, or him and Emilia, their actions were too exciting, making the members of the Sages feel a little overwhelmed and exhausted up.So when Reinhardt proposed that Felut was the orphan of the former king, although the scene was a bit chaotic, there was no real commotion.

After that, in order to better understand the usual behaviors and attitudes of the Dragon Maidens, and to allow them to communicate with each other, all of them also participated in the cocktail party prepared by the Sage Association.

Because I really don't have much interest in things like receptions, and I really gave those who questioned Emilia a head-on blow.So with Parker and Roswaal around, Subaru sneaked out of the royal city.

Unexpectedly, before he could relax, Roswaal also ran out and found him.

"Of course I saw Subaru-kun running out alone. I think you are not used to that kind of social interest. It just so happens that I am the same. It is difficult to chat with those old antiques, so I came out together. Oh!"

"No, I think it's just that your simplicity is too strange."

Subaru looked at Roswaal's outfit, and said with a strange expression: "It's okay to have a strange tone, and the clothes and makeup are also incompatible with other people, so it's good to be able to talk together like this?"

"It can only be said that those adults don't know me well enough. Look, don't you and I have a good chat with Subaru-kun?"

"No, I always feel that there may be some kind of misunderstanding..."

Subaru sighed, he didn't have a good conversation with Roswaal, to be honest Roswaal's dress and tone of voice were difficult for him to get used to, after all, he just lived in the Internet age of information explosion, accepted The ability is a little stronger than that of people of this era.

After all, even Emilia's evaluation of Roswaal is a "strange person". If Subaru is a native of this world, it may be difficult to communicate with a "heterogeneous" like Roswaal, right?

"Well, just treat it as a misunderstanding~"

Roswaal smiled. Leaning against the wall, he looked at Subaru and asked again: "Is that plan already prepared? Milia-sama and Parker-sama are cooperating very well with you."

"It can only be called a coincidence..."

Regarding this matter, Subaru was not going to hide it, and at the same time, there was no need to hide it.

"Although I also know that there are some problems with Emilia's situation, I never thought that even the wise men who control the destiny of this country have such a big prejudice against Emilia..."

"In other words, it was a temporary idea?"

Roswaal narrowed his eyes slightly and asked aloud.

"Ah, it's just a temporary idea. It was not fully planned until Emilia was about to appear on the stage."

Subaru nodded and agreed with Roswaal.

"Although it has always been clear that Lugnica has the title of pro-Dragon Kingdom, I only understand to what extent it is today. Isn't the Dragon Witch just the one chosen by Shenlong?"

"Cursch's idea of ​​breaking away from Shenlong and becoming self-reliant, to be honest, I am still very optimistic. After all, rather than relying on other existences, it is better for a country to let the people of the whole country unite independently. I think this is the long-term solution."

"However, should it be said that the people of this country have deeply worshiped the dragon? Although there are indeed some problems with what Crusch himself said, the meaning contained in it is worthy of recognition, but the fierce opposition is indeed met. Woolen cloth."

"So, I took advantage of their respect for Shenlong."

"So, Subaru-kun, you think so. From this point of view, does Subaru-kun, like Crusch-sama, agree with Lugnica's self-reliance?"

Roswaal nodded as if he understood, and there was an indescribable meaning between his words.

"That's right...but there is still a little difference, isn't it?"

It was just him and Roswaal anyway, and Subaru didn't mind sharing his thoughts on Crusch's proposal.

"There's nothing wrong with Crusch's idea, and I personally support it. But...she just seems to have an idea."

"How to divide the covenant with Shenlong, whether it will cause Shenlong's dissatisfaction and revenge in the future, how to let the people understand her thoughts, and how to solve the difficulties encountered in the future are all problems."

"If you don't want to talk about these things, what Crusch said is just empty talk in the end... Besides, the steps are too big."

It was too big a step. This was Subaru's opinion of Crusch's previous remarks between the thrones.

"This is something that needs to be done step by step. Maybe it needs to be done together by several generations. Crusch's idea is fine, but it seems a bit too radical?"

"Is it radical... yes, it's a dragon after all."

Roswaal seemed to think of something, and he laughed to himself.As for Roswaal's laughter, Subaru could only tilt his head in confusion, unable to understand the meaning.

Because there's nothing funny about what he said.

"Speaking of which, since it was a temporary plan, there is no expectation that Parker will appear."

"If Parker hadn't appeared at that time, Subaru-kun, are you going to continue to rely on words to suppress Lord Bordeaux until he shrinks from fear and anxiety?"

Having said that, Roswaal paused for a moment, and then said in a weird way.

"Subaru-kun's plan is the same as what has happened now. The original intention is to use the dragon to oppress the Sages, but if Bordeaux really agrees to your 'gamble' on the spur of the moment, what will we do then? "

"Subaru-kun, you are also clear, dragons... are not allowed to participate in the 'gamble' you proposed. At that time, the worst result is that Lord Bordeaux and Lord Emilia will 'sacrifice' together."

"Of course I have considered this kind of thing."

Subaru smiled, and the pistol he took out when he was between the thrones appeared again in his hand.

"I wouldn't put hope and miracles on the illusory dragon that I had never even seen before. Rather, the best result I expected at the time was that Bordeaux could agree to my proposal."

Saying that, Subaru pulled the trigger of the pistol in front of Roswaal, and the bullets ejected from the pistol did not fly in a straight line, but circled in mid-air at a speed that could be discerned by the naked eye. Finally, he fell to the ground as if he had lost power.

"this is……"

"It's manageable."

Subaru answered Roswaal's doubts. This is the principle of explanation, and at the same time, he is showing part of his strength in a disguised form, so that Roswaal will be afraid of him.After all, Subaru did not fully consider Roswaal to be his own.

"There is no trace of magic on it, and I can't explain it clearly. Simply put—"

"—The bullets of this gun act according to my thoughts."

"So... ah."

Roswaal took the pistol from Subaru's hand and carefully observed it.The touch in his hand is an ordinary metal material, and it is indeed as Subaru said, he can't feel any traces related to magic on it. It can be said that people who don't know it will only regard it as Subaru on the throne. Let's do a super-high-speed 'assassination' attack in a straight line as demonstrated in the previous section.

"That is to say, originally, did you intend to use this gun to act out a scene where Emilia is favored by the dragon?"

"And as the 'sinner' who insulted Emilia, Bordeaux will not be protected by the dragon, and will be killed by this gun in the end."

"It's too much for you to say, Roswaal."

Subaru shook his head, and after taking the pistol from Roswaal, the pistol disappeared from his hand.And Roswaal did not pursue Subaru's method of suddenly taking out the weapon and then disappearing into light particles.

After all, that was seen in the previous monster attack incident, and the weapon Subaru used at that time was much stronger than this gun in terms of pure power.

"I didn't intend to kill Bordeaux. After all, that guy just lost his mind because of fear and deep-rooted ideas. Just like McClutford, he also knew Emilia's identity, so he didn't think about Bordeaux. Is that impulsive?"

"My original idea was to use this method to prove Emilia's legitimacy, and Bordeaux's words would only hurt her."

"After all, whether it's me or someone from the Knights of the Guards, they won't aim at the vitals, and it will only be to the extent that they will be injured."

"If you put it this way, the appearance of Mr. Parker has actually added trouble to your plan, Subaru-kun."

Roswaal smiled.

"After all, if you follow Subaru-kun's ideas, although it will cause a certain degree of commotion, obviously the effect will be better in the future."

"If Parker played after that, then even if you want to slander Lady Emilia in your heart, you probably wouldn't dare?"

"No, that would be bad!"

Subaru shook his head. He didn't think of an important question until Parker appeared, but now that Roswaal said that, Subaru didn't think Roswaal would have missed it.

"Before I didn't think that if it really developed into that way, the situation would really be unfavorable to Emilia... Roswaal, you guy, are you saying that on purpose, or are you testing me? "

"Well, it depends on what you think, Subaru-kun. Then, what is the problem in your mind, Subaru-kun?"

"Fear..."

Subaru scratched his head helplessly.

"You can tell from other people's reactions to Emilia. Although they have deep-rooted ideas, in the final analysis, it is also due to the fear of the jealous witch?"

"Because the Witch of Envy is silver-haired and half-elf... so people who are afraid of the Witch of Envy put everything related to her into the scope of fear, disgust, and staying away."

"If there really was a bloodshed incident, it was done in the name of the dragon, and it did prove that Emilia was 'protected' by the dragon. But... that would only deepen other people's feelings towards Emilia. Ya's 'fear' again."

"If it is said that their 'fear' and 'disgust' towards Emilia before was due to the fact that Emilia's image was too close to the legendary witch of jealousy, then this situation will turn into opposition to Emilia. Emilia's own 'fear'."

Having said that, Subaru sighed.

"If you just want to help Emilia prove that you can get rid of the 'half-demon' or 'witch' hat on her head, then doing so can be said to be a strong medicine, so that those People don’t dare to gossip anymore.”

"But if the goal is to become the king of this country... then it will become an obstacle. Even if Emilia performs better, I'm afraid they will choose someone else?"

"As far as the current situation is concerned, Emilia can still win over people who support her. I believe that after this, ordinary people's views on Emilia will gradually change."

Roswaal clapped his hands while listening to Subaru's words, and looked at Subaru with admiration in his eyes.

"That's a perfect conclusion, Subaru-kun. If you can't become a king without a dragon priestess, maybe you also have the qualifications to become the king of Lugnica."
