Natsuki Subaru smiled as he watched Emilia mingle with the villagers. This was naturally what he ordered Gafir to do yesterday.

Seeing Emilia's happy look, he felt a little more at ease.

At this moment, Ram's voice came from the distance:
"Barrus!"

Natsuki Subaru turned around and noticed that Ram waved to him and said:
"Barrus, this way."

Natsuki Subaru was a little strange. He would leave with a group of villagers later. After all, the target of the Witch Cult is Emilia. Now that Emilia has entered the sanctuary, the villagers will naturally have no problem, but for safety Thinking that maybe people from the Witch Cult would be ambushing outside the sanctuary later, he would also follow the villagers and help them return.

But he looked at the villagers.

The villagers have almost settled down in the past few days, so there are still some things that need to be packed, and he estimates that it will take a while.

So I ran towards Ram.

"What's wrong, Ram, what's the matter?"

"Lord Roswaal is looking for you, and I also have something to say to you."

Under Ram's calm face, no movement could be seen.

"Rozwaal is looking for me?"

Natsuki Subaru felt a little irritated when he thought about Roswaal. He had a very bad impression of this guy who had always hidden things from him.

Although Lin Ye seemed to have reached some kind of contract with the other party, he still felt uncomfortable, but now was not the time to fall out, so he could endure it and nodded.

The two walked side by side on the road, and soon the laughter of the villagers faded away. At this time, Ram also spoke:

"Not all residents here are in favor of liberating the sanctuary."

"Well, what do you mean?"

Natsuki Subaru was a little confused.

"The liberation of the Holy Land is only led by powerful factions such as Kafir led by Ryuse. There are also conservatives among the residents who do not want to liberate the Holy Land."

Ram continued.

"Don't you want to liberate the sanctuary?"

Natsuki Subaru didn't understand. After all, he could clearly see the poverty of the residents before.

"For conservatives, the current situation of keeping communication with the outside world to a minimum is the most ideal. Deliberately breaking this situation will only increase their troubles."

Ram's eyes were sharp: "You should know what the outside world is like for mixed-race people."

Natsuki Subaru was stunned. He had never heard Luz or Gafiel mention this matter.

His face couldn't help but darken a little:
"In other words, they don't have full trust in us."

"Yes, including Frandelica."

Ram said something, which immediately made Natsuki Subaru's expression become even more gloomy.

Because he remembered many things. For example, when they entered the forest before, it was the crystal that Frandelica inexplicably gave them that allowed them to move.

Another example is that the transfer place is in front of the ruins, and Jafier is still waiting there.

This actually explains the problem.

However, in order to confirm, he still said:
"The person who gave Emilia the transfer crystal was Frandelica. Do you think this was deliberately arranged by Frandelica?"

"Judging from the indirect evidence, Frandelica obviously had some intentions. In fact, Emilia-sama barely escaped. Thanks to Barus's presence."

Ram said. "This is what I should do." Natsuki Subaru nodded, and then asked, "So this has something to do with Roswaal meeting me?"

"No, this is what I want to say." Ram said, "Please also pay more attention. For those conservatives who do not want to liberate the sanctuary, the most certain way is to harm Lady Emilia, and who are the enemies? There is no iodine deficiency, so you have to be vigilant.”

Natsuki Subaru was speechless.

I thought that as long as the Holy Land was liberated, there would be no problem, but now it seems that no matter where it is, there will be opposition.

Soon, the two arrived at Roswaal's room.

Opening the door, there were no curtains in the room, only a candlelight swaying due to the wind brought by the door:

"We meet again, Natsuki Subaru."

Roswaal still had a smile on his face, and the bandages on his body looked very scary.

"What do you want to say?" Natsuki Subaru narrowed his eyes.

"Don't be so angry. After all, Lady Emilia has not lost her qualifications for the trial. Isn't this good news?"

Roswaal crossed his arms.

It seems that the other party is also paying great attention to things in the sanctuary. Although he is always in the room, he is also aware of the situation here.

Natsuki Subaru didn't want to talk nonsense with the other party, so he didn't answer the other party, but said directly:
"So, what do you want to talk to me about, specifically avoiding Emilia?"

"It's a little conspiracy. I'm not naive enough to let people I can't trust participate."

Roswaal spread his hands.

"Can't be trusted? Are you talking about Emilia? What did you say suddenly?" Natsuki Subaru suddenly became excited and clenched his fists. The idea of ​​​​suppressing the opponent's head with a punch also resurfaced in his heart.

"Calm down first, Subaru."

When Roswaal saw Natsuki Subaru's fist, the corners of his eyes twitched, but he quickly regained his composure, and at the same time comforted Natsuki Subaru with gestures:
"I hope you will continue to assist Emilia-sama in the future as before."

"You don't have to tell me, what do you want to do?"

The corners of Natsuki Subaru's eyes twitched. What Roswaal said now and what he did now were completely different things.

"Of course, like you, I will fully support Emilia-sama to win the king's election." Roswaal said matter-of-factly, "In other words, you and I are accomplices."

"Should I say he was a helper? What you said is full of contradictions."

Natsuki Subaru vented his dissatisfaction.

The corners of Roswaal's mouth moved, wanting to say something, but looking at Natsuki Subaru's clenched fist, he wisely chose to stimulate Natsuki Subaru:
"I know the doubts in your heart now."

"Why I didn't tell Emilia-sama the information about the Witch Cult, and why I didn't stay in the mansion when the Witch Cult attacked. The answer to both is the same."

Roswaal closed his eyes: "It was to avoid a confrontation between me and the Witch Cult, so I deliberately induced the situation."

Natsuki Subaru was stunned. He didn't expect Roswaal to admit it so openly.

Unexpectedly, Roswaal changed the subject and said:

"After all, if I were involved, it wouldn't be your and Emilia-sama's credit. The effect is remarkable, isn't it?"

Roswaal spread his hands, "After defeating the Witch Cult, the attitude of the villagers in Alam Village towards Emilia-sama has undergone a huge change from before. She has gone from being a member of the witch's tribe who cannot understand it, to one who protects her." The benefactor of one’s own life.”

Natsuki Subaru was speechless, because what Roswaal said was right.

But he couldn't accept it even more. (End of chapter)
