38. A revolution that begins slowly! (2)
At the words of the valet, Kariel’s face brightened. Then, the waitress smiled and handed him a letter.
“This is a letter from Salem.”
Kariel hastily read the letter from Marx himself.
「Your Majesty, I am sending the disciple of my conviction.
It is a child who lacks many parts, but I hope that it will be of some help to the lack of manpower.
The disciple’s name is Luther W Bismarck.”
Looking at the short letter, Kariel’s eyes widened.
“This guy… … .”
Kariel was unknowingly surprised. It was because a guy who had helped him tremendously in governing the empire in his previous life was coming up to the capital.
“You must be still young… … .”
If the guy he knows is right, he’s still young. Knowing that, Kariel also thought of finding talent slowly, even if he was in a hurry.
But I didn’t expect it to come like this.
“Your Majesty, someone sent by the Mayor of Salem has arrived.”
“Stop by.”
At Kariel’s command, the door to the office opened and a young man who was still young came in.
“lung… … I see you, Your Majesty.”
Looking at the young man, who clearly looked nervous, Kariel smiled.
‘cute.’
It was so cute to see the guy who used to have a gruff expression on his face every day, probably tired of life in his previous life, now break out in a cold sweat because he was so scared.
“A disciple of Marx?”
“class… … It is undeservedly so.”
“Hmm… … It is imaginary that you have come to help, but you are still too young.”
At Kariel’s words, Luther’s expression darkened.
Seeing that, Kariel smiled and opened her mouth again.
“If Marx had sent him here, wouldn’t that mean he was a worthy human resource even with that in mind?”
At those words, Luther’s complexion brightened again.
“Are there any of those who came with you as young as you?”
“cow… … Sonny is the youngest. But there are quite a few people who are less than five years apart.”
After hearing Luther’s words, Kariel had an interesting thought.
‘At this point, the academy must also reform.’
Cariel thought so and said to Luther.
“No matter how much Marx recommends it, it is difficult to hire him right away. You are too young.”
Kariel smiled and said to Luther who was sullen again.
“Prove it.”
“Proof… … Do you have a name?”
“okay. Prove that you are useful even at a young age.”
Having said that, Kariel called the chamberlain.
“Gather all the people who came with this guy and send them to the academy.”
“Yes.”
The chief of staff responded to Kariel’s command and went outside at the same time.
“You know that the academy is rotten, right?”
“… … That’s right.”
“Try reforming that academy. An academy that can only be recognized for its ability. Try making it.”
When Kariel threw a clear target, Luther’s eyes began to shine.

Just like in his previous life, Luther’s expression changed at the clear goal. The tension disappears and the chair that will surely achieve the goal dwells in the eyes.
“No matter how talented you are, it will be difficult without support. I will pay for all of your school fees. I will also send someone to help you reform the academy.”
“Help… … You mean?”
“okay. Those who will go to the academy with you and lead the reform are my younger brothers.”
Luther’s eyes widened at Kariel’s words.
“The two princes… … .”
“So do your best. If the academy is reformed, I will use you seriously.”
“… … I will surely live up to Your Majesty’s expectations.”
Cariel nodded slightly as he watched Luther clenched his teeth and spoke, and let him go.
And immediately he made the attendant and called the two younger brothers.
Even now, they were the younger brothers who were working hard in each department, but in fact, their positions were ambiguous. Although they were princes, they still lacked experience.
From their point of view, they would think that they had done well, but there were still many shortcomings, so they were in a position to learn.
In the past, people were forced to work semi-forced to decide who would rise to the throne, but now it’s different.
Anyway, Kariel had thrown away the thought of retirement for a while, so he had to give his younger brothers time to really ‘grow’.
“Did you call?”
“your majesty?”
As Kariel, who had called them, only smiled, Luffiel and Seriel tilted their heads.
“Want to get out of paper hell?”
The younger brothers flinched at Kariel’s question.
As if he knew their feelings well, Kariel got up from his seat and patted the two of them on the shoulder.
“Can you help me get out of this hell for a moment?”
The two younger brothers nodded their heads in haste as they watched Kariel suggesting in a subtle tone.
Seeing them like that, Kariel smiled.
“Enter the academy.”
“Yes?”
“Are you suddenly at the academy?”
At Kariel’s words, the brothers tilted their heads.
Now come the academy?
In fact, the level of the two has already exceeded the level of the academy. Both of them have accumulated considerable skills as they once held the title of Genius Imperials who appeared after a long time.
While experiencing the war, both of them possessed skills comparable to knights or regular wizards, and above all, their administrative tasks became incomparable to those of novice bureaucrats.
It’s just that the bureaucrats of the central departments that Kariel rolls over are so competent that they only look relatively ugly.
“I’m not just saying go. I will give you an assignment.”
“A mission?”
When Seriel tilted her head, Kariel nodded.
“Seriel, you must reform the Imperial Academy. Take over as the student council president and get rid of all the rotten teachers and students.”
At Kariel’s command, Seriel gulped at the bigger task than expected.
“You understand the seriousness of this mission, right?”
“… … Yes.”
“You must succeed.”
“Yes, I will definitely succeed.”
Seeing Seriel nodding with a firm expression, Kariel turned her gaze to Rufiel.
“Your mission is more important than Seriel.”
“More than Academy reform?”
Rufiel tilted his head as if there was such a thing. It looked like he wondered if there was a more important mission within the academy than that.
“Go and take control of the Faculty of Magic.”
“That much… … .”
“It has to be so complete that even the teachers can’t interfere.”
From Kariel’s words, Rufiel could roughly understand what this mission was like.
“You mean to overcome the Mage Tower’s check?”
“okay.”
As many of the teachers in the Faculty of Magic were from the Mage Tower, there was a possibility that Rufiel would interfere whenever he tried to do something.
Rufiel had to overcome all of that and take full control of the Faculty of Magic.
“Seize is not the end. Find a way to develop engineering and engineering. We will send useful talent to the academy, so use them.”
“no way… … Are you trying to hit the magic tower?”
Cariel gave a small nod to Rufiel’s question.
A mage tower that has a huge impact on the entire industry of the empire due to magic engineering.
It is a mage tower that has only benefited from any faction fights with complete neutrality without damage. As a result, his influence naturally grew, and now he has grown into a cancerous presence in the empire.
“I don’t care what you do, whether you bring in your mother’s family or ask me for help.”
“… … The easiest way would be to involve professors.”
“If you can.”
“after… … Let’s try it.”
Rufiel put on an expression of no confidence, but soon clenched his fists and nodded.
“Your mission is important. In the future, we will let talented people who graduated from the academy take over this country.”
“Are you really going to start a revolution?”
“If you need.”
In response to Seriel’s words, Kariel said with a firm expression.
“A bigger crisis than now is coming. It is difficult to overcome the crisis in the current state.”
“… … bigger crisis… … .”
“after… … .”
The younger siblings sigh as if they couldn’t imagine when they heard that a bigger crisis than now is coming.
“I will tell you later what the crisis is. So just focus on the academy for now.”
“Yes.”
“yes.”
Looking at the younger siblings who answered with a firm expression, Kariel gave a small nod and patted them on the shoulder.
“I believe only in you.”
The two of them greeted each other with a droopy look and left the room.
However, since it was intentionally burdensome, Kariel only sighed and looked at the sky.

Just then, a small fireball appeared out of thin air.
-Are you still far away?
“I have some left.”
Kariel sighed as she saw Surt appearing after a long time.
– tt! I have to start quickly, but I’m lost… … .
“It can’t be helped.”
Now was the time when the emperor himself should not let go of his hand. At least until the system stabilized to a certain extent, he had to manage it himself, continuously giving orders to his ministers.
“It’s not something I can stop alone anyway. The empire needs to be developed so that we can have at least some hope.”
-Ehh… … You can’t think easily like me or Skoll. Gareum is just sleeping now.
“know.”
-Even if you make an oath to a guy with full power, it won’t be eaten. You must have the minimum qualifications
At Surtur’s advice, Kariel nodded slightly.
The minimum conditions to be recognized by Gareum. In order to have it, I had to go into training right now.
I had to grow the fire of the beginning and put that power perfectly into my body.
“Give me a little more time.”
-after… … okay.
With those words, Surt disappears into thin air again.
Looking at the place where he was, Kariel smiled wryly and looked up at the sky.
Is this what it feels like to be doomed?
It was a dark road ahead, but it felt like I was walking slowly, relying on a single lamp.
“I will still have to do it.”
Mumbling like that, Kariel clenched her teeth.
It reminded me of Miriale from my previous life.
Miriel, who fought to the end and tried to protect mankind.
Glenn, who had been protecting her, fell, and Miriel collapsed, and the empire collapsed.
I had to be more prepared to make sure that never happened again.
“… … Shall we go see Miriale after a long time?”
At that moment, the servant’s voice was heard outside the office.
“Your Majesty, the Prime Minister wants to see your Majesty.”
‘It’s not good to see Miriel again today.’
Kariel sighed softly when she realized that she would be working overtime today, thinking that she must have brought an enormous amount of reports.
Kariel fell into the endless document hell again.
And Winston follows such Kariel as an old body.
In the midst of these sacrifices, the empire was somehow going back today.
* * *
While Kariel and other ministers and bureaucrats worked day and night, those who finally passed the test began to be assigned to the ministry one by one.
At the same time, talented people from the east also passed their own tests.
The urgency was so great that as soon as they passed the test, even the aristocrats who tried to tackle the bureaucrats who hired them and took them with them immediately cleared their throats and retreated.
“Your Majesty, we are short of people.”
“Still?”
“Yes.”
Kariel frowned at the chancellor, who came to see him again today as he was short of people.
“What kind of work can be transferred to the Noble House?”
“Well… … I will look for it.”
As long as commoners and revolutionary forces were appointed, there was no need to exclude members of the aristocracy as before.
Is there a shortage of manpower even after hiring all the people who can be appointed?
Then they had no choice but to roll those who were playing.
The chancellor seemed to agree with this, and prepared to transfer all the duties that could be handed over to the House of Nobility in each ministry.
Then, it was the aristocrats who were embarrassed.
It was because they did not expect that Kariel, who had only kept them in check, would give them work. The aristocrats, embarrassed by this, visited Kariel, but rather, the work only increased.
“You say you want to keep the revolutionary forces in check? You have to make an effort to keep the authority of the nobles. is not it?”
The aristocrats, who were silent at Kariel’s words, became contemplative.
“In that sense, take this too?”
Saying that, Kariel smiled brightly.
He was obviously a great emperor, but he didn’t know why the devil could be seen on his face.
