392 – The King of Supervision – 2
Today my world collapsed. No, maybe yesterday.
But if the world collapsed anyway, I wonder if today or yesterday has any meaning. Isn’t it the same as having no future?
‘Let’s calm down.’
After a moment of despair, I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. Think again. It is not easy for one person’s world to collapse. That kind of thing can’t come to me.
Yes, this is a nightmare. I fainted for a moment because of extreme anxiety. When you open your eyes, you will see a normal personnel transfer order, not this horrible nightmare. Surely it will.
[The founding chairman of the newly formed Ministry of Inspection will be the current head of the Inspection Department, Count Carl Krasius of Wirydia, and then the first Minister of the Ministry of Inspection will also be Count Carl Krasius of Wiridia. ]
“f*ck.”
However, nothing changed when I opened my eyes. Rather, I think I can see it better after resting my eyes.
I can’t believe it. From the time it was established about 100 years ago to the present, the Inspection Department has been strictly maintained as a ‘sub’ level department. Although I heard that the authority and status of the Inspection Department are not suitable for a department under the Ministry of Finance, it is a different matter to really raise it to a ‘province’.
It’s not even just changing the name to Sensei. Several organizations under the Ministry of Special Affairs were also ripped off and fused together.
‘At this rate, it’s at the level of a real provincial department.’
Unbeknownst to me, I bit my lip. If only the name has changed to a surname while maintaining the system of his fatherhood, he can handle it somehow. The protocol ranking will rise in an instant, but the work itself remains the same.
However, according to this personnel transfer order, the soon-to-be-built Superintendent Castle, although smaller than other castles, has certainly evolved to the size of a castle. As such, tasks and responsibilities rise side by side.
‘I’m going to turn around.’
In the end, I let out a sigh. He became the youngest manager in his teens, but he said he was the youngest minister in his twenties? Search continental history, not imperial history. Was there a precedent for this?
‘What can I do with this?’
I stared at the communication port in dismay. It might be a regular personnel transfer that can be adjusted by listening to tips in advance, but emergency and special personnel transfers are finished once they are announced. It cannot be overturned because it is the final plan announced to all the subjects in the name of the emperor.
Besides, even if there was a chance, I don’t think the emperor would have accepted it. I mobilized the river that promotes wealth to a castle, but I get bitten again? The emperor was never of that kind of character. I’d rather not mention promotion in the first place.
Damn it, did I become a godfather and become a minister? It could be that Hwang Tae-son’s godfather was just a general manager, so he promoted him to match his rank.
‘Ah.’
While I was having such a reasonable doubt, I flinched at the sudden flash of communication.
My hands trembled instinctively. When I received this contact, I saw a vague future that would explode inside me.
“I am the head of the inspection department.”
Still, it could be the father who heard the news of his son’s promotion, or the deputy manager’s contact to discuss the sudden promotion of the department, so I received it.
– Oh, you got it. I thought you would be busy receiving congratulations, but I’m glad.
And as soon as I received it, I regretted it.
– Why is your expression like that? Isn’t today a happy day?
I felt like going crazy when I saw the minister smiling as if he was happy.
“…Why are you suddenly honored…”
– You can’t speak bad words to a soon-to-be minister. No wonder.
As if what he had said was funny, the minister started to burst into laughter.
A bastard. What is Enen doing without catching people like that?

I wasn’t feeling well until a few minutes ago. It is a pleasure as a servant that the succession structure of the imperial family has been strengthened with the appearance of Her Highness the Crown Prince, but it is disturbing that the Minister of the Imperial Household resigned early in the aftermath. Because the Minister of the Ministry of the Interior does not simply deal with the affairs of the Ministry of Home Affairs, but also leads the entire administration as the number one minister in the hierarchy.
Fortunately, the duties of the palace itself are handled by the head of the Imperial Household Department, but for the time being, I, the Minister of Finance, will have to perform the role of the first person in the administration. A sigh will come out of nowhere.
However, after a while, as soon as he saw a certain sentence, that sigh disappeared without leaving even a trace.
“hahahaha!”
I really laughed heartily. I don’t know how long it’s been since I’ve laughed like this.
Of course, there were a few laughs of joy, but this one was different in nature. The emotion I feel right now is closer to the pleasure of seeing a clown of the era than joy. I laughed for a long time and then I finally calmed down.
[The founding chairman of the newly formed Ministry of Inspection will be the current head of the Inspection Department, Count Carl Krasius of Wirydia, and then the first Minister of the Ministry of Inspection will also be Count Carl Krasius of Wiridia. ]
“Pheu-“
As soon as I turned my gaze, I burst out laughing again because of the sentence that I saw. It’s amazing how much power there is in just one sentence.
‘The Sensitivity.’
Anyway, I calmed down the second round of laughter and organized my thoughts. The joy of being an acquaintance of that guy and the worries you have to do as the finance minister are two different things.
It is encouraging to be able to watch him become a minister, sobbing and frenzied as a minister. I am so happy that I will be able to work happily for the next 10 years.
However, it is an unimaginable variable for the Inspection Department under his command to become an independent castle, and for a guy who was thought to be a strong candidate for the next minister to become the minister of another castle. I still have to fill the vacancy of the minister of the palace, but other issues have overlapped.
‘…It’s the next minister, I don’t have to decide.’
You don’t have to worry deeply about the next minister. When a high-ranking official recommends his/her successor, there is a high probability that His Majesty the Emperor will accept it, but it is not an obligation. If I resign without making a recommendation, His Majesty the Emperor will appoint whoever he wants as my successor.
In other words, it’s just a pity that he doesn’t follow me, but it doesn’t matter.
Yeah, better to see him become a minister than to see him become a minister in a few decades. Let’s laugh at this
‘The Treasury Department without the Inspection Department.’
Then the problem I have to worry about is the disappearance of the Department of Inspection. A rare situation in which one of the five departments that support the treasury departed.
…
‘It won’t be a problem.’
Thinking about it, it’s okay even if you don’t have it.
The Inspection Department was only under the control of the Ministry of Finance, but in fact, it was a strange department that received orders from His Majesty the Emperor and was involved in all departments. I knew it well because I was a member of the Inspection Department, and even after becoming the Minister of Finance, I was only receiving nominal reports from the Inspection Department.
When I came to that conclusion, I felt like I would burst into laughter again. Surprisingly, this incident of the establishment of the Superintendent does not affect me in any way.
– I am the head of the inspection department.
That’s why I was happy to contact you. This is an issue that I can play unilaterally without getting hit back.
“Oh, you did. I thought you’d be busy receiving congratulations, but I’m glad you did.”
At those words, the guy’s expression drastically distorted.
The mind becomes calm.
“What’s wrong with your expression? Isn’t today a happy day?”
– …Why are you suddenly honoring me…
“You can’t speak ill of the soon-to-be minister. It’s only natural.”
I couldn’t be more happy seeing the more distorted expression.
His Majesty the Emperor gave me a big present before he abdicated.
***
He spat out good words while barely suppressing all sorts of swearing.
“Are you senile?”
I think that’s a gentlemanly answer. No one in the world would have such superhuman patience and mercy.
– Getting angry on a good day.
Only then did the minister withdraw his appalling respect and began to speak as usual.
But a good day is a bad day. I’ll admit it if it’s a f*cked up day.
– Well, anyway, congratulations on becoming a minister. Actually, wasn’t it confirmed that you would become a minister? It was a matter of when.
“No, I thought it would be 20 years later! Does a minister in his 20s make sense!?”
The minister’s expression slightly distorted at the heartfelt cry. If that man had a last conscience, he would pity my situation—
– You thought I’d be ministering for 20 years?
This sh*t, it’s the last, it’s nabal, it’s nothing.
I was speechless at the sight of the minister thoroughly thinking of himself, but the minister suddenly raised the corner of his mouth and nodded his head.
– Yes, I will work for about 20 years. You are 60 years old

“Please go out and search.”
For a moment, I thought that if I killed my superiors, I would be the Minister of Inspection, and I would be fired.
Please let me get one sky slash.
After that, many conversations came and went, but only my mentality was unilaterally broken. Normally, I would have even a small counterattack against the minister, but I can’t think of any means to counterattack.
– It’s good though. Even if you are at the academy, the deputy director or head of the information department will act as the founding chairman. Didn’t the deputy chief do all the office work even at the inspection department in the first place?
Furthermore, he even fired a confirmation kill with an undeniable fact.
In fact, the problem of the founding chairman was my only hope. It is a matter of founding a new provincial department, and the chairperson is outside the institution. However, to return to the system, he is carrying out an important mission to manage the royal families of other countries.
For a moment, I harbored such a small hope that it would be better to hand over the founding chairman’s seat to someone else or delay the founding of the Ministry of Supervision as much as possible under such justification.
The minister smashed it right away.
‘…I’d do well if the intelligence director did it.’
I keep feeling lingering. To be honest, the head of the intelligence department is older than me and has a long career. Shouldn’t the director of the information department be the one to invite and then I to be the successor? I can understand that far.
Of course, this is futile lingering. This personnel transfer is only complete when I become a minister.
‘Don’t cry, a letter of resignation inside me.’
I calmed down as I watched the text messages congratulating the promotion that began to pile up in the communication area. I received a big gift from the emperor during the victory ceremony and put up with it. If it was usual, I would have submitted my resignation at this timing.
While checking the messages of the deputy director, the information manager, Erzebet, Fenelia, and the 2nd section one by one, he saw a text from his father.
[ Congratulations on becoming a minister-designate. It’s an embarrassingly fast pace, but I’m just happy as a father to know that your ability and loyalty have been recognized. ]
A sincere text sent a smile to my face. I especially like the word ‘minister’.
And before long, I doubted my eyes at the following sentence.
[The title succession ceremony should be held if you can afford it. I will do my best to match it at that time, so please contact me when the time is right. ]
…
A title succession ceremony…?
