In the neighboring country
Today as well, things were bustling in the neighboring country.
“Listen up, you all.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“The other day&h.e.l.lip;&h.e.l.lip; Someone – ‘Someone’ murdered our prime minister. The prime minister was hung up with his head missing, on the walls of our royal palace, along with the body of his closest aide, I’m sure that none of you have forgotten.”
The king said so in a quiet voice.
“- I hereby proclaim Code Angelique.”
With a loud clatter, everyone in the conference room stood up.
“A, as expected! As expected! So that’s how it was! We’re all finished! We’re all doomed!”
“I’m getting out of here! I’m going to evacuate this country and take refuge somewhere else! I’m taking my family with me!”
“It’s useless, ‘that’ can find you even in another country!”
“That’s why we should have improved our relations with the neighboring Akaido Kingdom!”
“Amen!”
“Tutankhamen!”
It was very, very lively.
“Everyone, be quiet. This is the chance to make that macho, muscular marquis into our country’s prime minister and become the muscle for our country -”
“King! Aren’t you the one most shaken by this incident! With such a muscular prime minister before, you said that the citizens will see him defeating others and become stronger as well by emulating him!”
“We’re finished!!”
Now then, who could they be possibly talking about?
