Robert and Delphine’s wedding was just around the corner.

We have officially announced that the situation has been brought under control, and everyone is to be taken into town for a rest.

 

In particular, the medical personnel has been instructed to take a week off.

Everyone seemed relieved to be out of the tension.

 

I decided that an interval was necessary, so I instructed them not to rush any of the regular cases, except for the most urgent ones.

I could see that everyone was getting tired from the constant tension.

More than that, I wanted to make some changes to the administrative structure.

It’s just right because I needed some time to think too.

 

In the meantime, the long-awaited draft of the law came up.

I skimmed through it and was mostly satisfied with it.

 

The diabolic grandma Magali looked tired as expected.

 

“Thank you for your hard work. I’m sure everything will be fine, except for one thing.”

 

The diabolic grandma Magali made a disgusted face.

 

“Is there something wrong with it?”

 

No, maybe I’ve overdetermined some of my ideas.

 

“No, it’s just a supplementary one. Children’s crimes will be considered for reduced sentences uniformly. That’s the only point.”

 

It seems she wondered if I was going to say something stupid.

The diabolic grandma Magali looked at me with a puzzled look.

 

“Are you going to acquit them?”

 

No way.

We don’t give preferential treatment to children out of principle.

 

“No, if a child commits a crime in anticipation of a reduced sentence …… he or she will be treated as an adult. Please add this one note.”

 

The juvenile law that existed before my reincarnation.

If a child commits a crime, he or she will never be sentenced to death.

They underestimate that even if they do something bad, it won’t be a big deal.

Such people do not need protection.

 

I feel the need to explain the purpose to the diabolic grandma.

 

“The reduction of a child’s sentence is based on the fact that they are not yet ready to judge right from wrong. We don’t feel the need to protect them if they prey on that purpose.”

 

“So just because they’re children doesn’t mean they’re unprincipled.”

 

“In the first place, penalties are a deterrent. So, it is abusive to commit crimes by calculating the punishment accurately. If it continues to be abused, the system itself will lose its credibility.”

 

I guess she had an idea.

The diabolic grandma Magali put her hand on her chin.

 

“It’s true, there are those who think that they can only be punished to this extent. I usually give them a hard punishment.”


 

 

And I’m not just talking about kids, I’m talking about you too.

The hardest punishment is yet to come.

I said I’ll swallow it, but I didn’t say I’ll get rid of the smell.

 

“That’s right. Please include that goal in it.”

 

The diabolic grandma Magali nodded, looking tired.

 

“Okay, when this is all over, give me some rest.”

 

“Yes, of course. After that, it’s a different story ……”

 

The diabolic grandma Magali looked fed up.

 

“I’ve approached one hell of a demon ……”

 

You mean angel.

I’ve been cleaning up your mess, after all.

 

◆◇◆◇◆

 

After the diabolic grandma Magali left, I went to check on Manora, who was feeling better.

This time of the day, she should be leading the map model making that has resumed activity.

She was originally the boss of the group, but she seems to have developed a talent for leadership.

""

I’m secretly looking forward to seeing her as a member of our future leadership team.


 

 

When Manora saw me, she waved her muddy hand.

 

“My lord, welcome to man’s romance.”

 

I was flabbergasted.

 

“Where did you come up with that name ……?”

 

“I heard from Miss Kiara that the milord called it the man’s romance.”

 

You’ll make me hate you …… my sister …….

 

When I regained my composure and looked at everyone, they were working fine.

Gerald and his wife’s daughter, Arsinoe, is attached to Manora.

They look like sisters.

 

Arsinoe seems to be able to talk to the other children, but she still seems to be shy.

It would be good if she could gradually make more friends without rushing.

 

As I was thinking this, Manora tugged on the sleeve of my clothes.

 

“Oh …… that’s right, my lord. The other kids told me that the map here is wrong. Can I fix it?”

 

Oh, so they know your way around …….

 

“Please do so. I’ll bring a lot of white paper. Can I ask you to write it with everyone?”

 

Manora smiled.

 

“Yes, I understand.”

 

It seems that the children are getting along well with each other, regardless of race.

It’s really a good thing ……

I’ll have to reward them for their enthusiasm.

 

“I’ll have them send you some candy later as a reward for noticing the mistake.”

 

The children shouted with delight.

 

“But please don’t go outside to check. It’s still dangerous. The adults will do that.”

 

There was an exclamation of “What?”

 

Then, a voice told them firmly.

 

“He! You have to listen to my lord!”

 

It was Manora.

The children nodded in unison.

 

What leadership skills.

I’m wondering if I should call her Little Boss.
