It was after the rabbit tribe’s messenger had returned.

I screamed inwardly, “Oh, no!”

I was so guilty that I forgot to ask something important.

What a mess.

 

I couldn’t help but sigh.

Kiara looked at me suspiciously.

 

“What’s wrong, brother?”

 

“Oh, it’s nothing. I just forgot to ask something important.”

 

Mil looked at me and gave a small smile.

 

“Al being careless is quite rare.”

 

“I don’t care if it’s unusual …… Why have they been hiding instead of interacting with other species? And have they ever been attacked?”

 

Mil nodded her head.

 

“That’s how you start to think about things, huh.”

 

I couldn’t help but smile.

She’s watching me very closely.

I’d be afraid if she was observing me for anything other than fondness.

No wonder men are often controlled by women as if they’re in the palm of their hand.

I cleared my throat as my thoughts went elsewhere.

 

“I was also wondering if there were any taboo activities for the rabbit tribe living here.”

 

Kiara nodded her head, a little curiously.

 

“If there were, wouldn’t she have mentioned it first?”

 

It’s not that simple.

That Ms. Bunny was surprisingly low-key.

She didn’t seem to be malicious or calculating.

 

“No, it was the way the messenger was acting. I don’t want him to think I’m making excessive demands since I’m the one making the offer. Isn’t it possible that she thought so?”

 

Kiara looked a little surprised.

 

“Is she that reserved?”

 

“It’s just a possibility.”

 

Kiara looked like a student looking for answers.

 

“What do we do now?”

 

“Let’s find out carefully. If we do it wrong, we could get into trouble.”

 

Kiara said regretfully.

 

“I guess I’m still too inexperienced with brother’s study ……”

 

Let’s stop that study.

I’m scared that you’ll really start up a department.

 

“…… I don’t want her to think that I’m accusing her of that. It’s my mismanagement, so I’ll take care of it myself.”

 

On the other hand, there is another important issue that has been left unattended.

I’ll have to start on that one too ……

I decided to ask Mil for a favor.

 

“Could you please go get the diabolic grandma for me?”

 


 

Mil blurted out.

 

“All right. But I’m not going to use that nickname.”

 

Mil winked as she left.

Her true feelings leaked out ……

 

Kiara made a disgruntled face.

I’m sure she thought I was going to ask her to do it, given the way the conversation went.

 

“Brother, is there a reason why you asked Sister and not me? “

 

“Of course, because Kiara is not good at hiding her emotions when it comes to me.”

""

 

Kiara puffed up.

 

“That’s not true.”

 

I decided to pretend not to hear her.

This question and answer would be absolutely fruitless.

 

“I don’t want her to suddenly have a heart attack because of Kiara’s intimidation, after all.”

 

It would be a problem if she dies.

I don’t want that diabolic grandma to have it easy.

I have another use of her in mind.

 

And I don’t want her to be more cautious than necessary.

If I blame the diabolic grandma too much, the people who love her will start making a commotion.

 

◆◇◆◇◆

 


 

When I was lost in thought for a while, Mil brought the diabolic grandma Magali to me.

 

 

The diabolic grandma Magali looked up to the sky at my cold stare.

 

“You’re still angry with me? I hope you’ll get over it already.”

 

“One person died because of you. I’ll never forget it.”

 

The diabolic grandma Magali sighed.

 

“I can’t say anything back if you say that. The older you get and the closer you get to death …… the more careless you become about things.”

 

Don’t apply that standard to others.

But it’s a waste of time to question them.

Let’s get down to business.

 

“Give me some information about the rabbit tribe. If you’ve been around here for a long time, you probably know a bit about them.”

 

The diabolic grandma Magali closed her eyes and looked as if she was remembering something.

 

“I heard that the rabbit tribesmen came here. If those timid people are coming out, they must have been cornered too far.”

 

I’m the one who caused that, though ……

 

“I’m sure. We’re going to accept about 100 people. So, please spit out all the information you can.”

 

“Oh dear …… I get it. I just don’t know much about them. They don’t come out very often.”

 

After a few more persistent questions, I give another order of request.

I got the look of a punishing prison officer instead of a cold stare.

 

“There’s one more thing.”

 

Seeing the look on my face, the diabolic grandma Magali gave me a look of blatant disgust.

 

“What is it? I’ve got a bad feeling about this.”

 

“The law-making process has been halted due to the plague. Madam Plunkett will take the lead on the draft and have it ready in a week.”

 

The diabolic grandma Magali made a face of disgust.

 

“Don’t be absurd. You know how hard it is.”

 

Yes, I know.

But you’re the one who caused the delay.

You will be held accountable.

I open my mouth in a stern manner.

 

“No, you will do it. If you do, I’ll let you off the hook for what happened before.”

 

The diabolic grandma Magali looked at me for a while.

Eventually, she raised her hands as if she gave up.

 

“Good grief, that’s some payback …… I get it. It wouldn’t be good for my ex-subordinates if I’m being stared at by you.”

 

If that’s what you’re thinking, don’t try to set me up in the first place.

I guess only your own subordinates and Ardelheid are in your sights.

 

That’s not good enough for me.

By enacting the law, even if you don’t like it, you’ll have to turn your attention to it.

I will not allow you to escape.

It will be of no comfort to him now that he is dead.

 

We must create a society where his bereaved family can live comfortably.

That was the only way I could think of to take responsibility for him.
