After Being Sold Out By The Empire, I Decide To Assist The Demon King Chapter 378 - 20 Decided Not to Go Home for Now

"So that’s how it was. You should take heed not to let your death beco the trigger for the world’s destruction... I’ll talk to Isabella too."

Yila said this to Heidlin as he stood up, ready to go to the emperor’s palace. He really needed to explain the matter to Isabella, and it had been a long ti since he last talked to her.

From the current state of the empire, Isabella was actually doing quite well... Whether in the resettlent of disaster victims or the small techniques in the relief efforts, she carried them out elegantly.

For example, today she promised to distribute 1 ounce of bread the following day, and then actually distributed 2 ounces the next day.

This was a very effective technique, whether it was for governance or other areas.

If she had promised to distribute 2 ounces but due to so unforeseen circumstances, only managed to distribute 1.8 ounces, it would cause dissatisfaction.

Isabella also understood that relief efforts couldn’t be fixed in ti and location, as the people would form habits. If one day the relief didn’t arrive on ti, it could lead to riots.

It was a very interesting phenonon.

And if the relief was distributed irregularly, everyti expressing difficulty, then people would rember the kindness in their hearts.

After eting Isabella, Yila planned to visit young Ulrichla. He had a lot to discuss with Ulrichla, especially since many ruthless sches were said to be his ideas... He wondered if Ulrichla was currently within the empire.

Ulrichla was also Yila’s disciple. Unlike Yila, Ulrichla was a ticulous egoist, which ant he was often more daring in making exchanges.

Exchanges were a common term, and interpreting it with slightly more complicated terminology...

**Exchange of pieces**

or perhaps...

**Sacrifice**

**...**

If only Ulrichla and Isabella’s personalities could be balanced out ... let Ulrichla be a bit more childish, befitting his age, and let Isabella be a bit more mature, fit for her crown.

However, it seed Ulrichla’s problem was more severe at the mont. If they t, Yila would need a way to bring his thinking back on track, otherwise it could beco quite dangerous.

*Sotis, more gentle and non-aggressive asures could be taken.*

With this thought, Yila was on his way to the emperor’s palace when he saw people respectfully greeting soone being surrounded... How should one say it, those respectful and awe-filled eyes made it easy for Yila to guess who it was.

Very soon, due to Yila’s presence, a lot of people gathered around where he was.

As expected, Yila saw two familiar figures on the road... One was Marilla Elkaras, and the other was Isabella Arthur Modred, without any other guards following them.

*They sneaked out?!*

"Isabella and Marilla? I told you before..."

As Isabella and Marilla maintained their high-status deanor, dealing with civilians, a cold inquiry suddenly ca from in front of them, making them both freeze... because they were very familiar with this beginning.

The mont Yila helplessly and calmly said, "I told you before?" it would quickly follow with...

"First of all, the presence of guards is necessary, not only for your own safety but also for the safety of the civilians and officials around you. Objectively speaking, a person nad King needs to keep a certain distance..."

"Secondly, you have left the emperor’s palace directly, haven’t you? But by the rules, even if it’s a private visit, the emperor and the Dual Ministers (Pri Ministers) must have one staying in the palace, with all three being inford. This is for the entire..."

"..."

*Yes, after "I told you before?" there usually ca long teachings.*

But this ti, Isabella didn’t show a deathly pale face but smiled and nodded... Maybe this was also a sign of her growth, although this growth felt quite awkward.

*When can a person clearly recognize their growth?*

*From the first ti they hold back their grievances without crying out loud... From realizing that getting a good night’s sleep isn’t punishnt but luck... From the first ti they feel confused about their future... From the first ti they don’t resent their parents’ teachings anymore.*

*But even forcing Isabella into this, she definitely wouldn’t fall into the third category...*

*If one must say, it’s more like a [more childish behavior] rather than a [sign of growth]?*

————Ulrichla’s Section————

"General, Yila returned to the Royal Capital..."

"..."

In the silence, the young man riding back to the Royal Capital with a cigarette in his mouth glanced at his reporting deputy officer, puffing out a half-burned cigarette.

The youth nad Ulrichla saw from his deputy officer’s eyes that he wasn’t joking...

"I guess Teacher Yila must have sothing important to do, and once it’s done he will leave quickly."

Ulrichla casually speculated, knowing Yila well, as Yila’s sudden arrival in the empire could only an this. He said, "So, let’s find sothing to do outside the Royal Capital now..."

*This logic felt strange. Normally... If your teacher returned and was leaving soon, you should go back quickly and et with him.*

*Instead of saying "find sothing to do" in such a guilty tone.*

"I rember, there’s a group of robbers nearby? Let’s take a detour to wipe them out."

Ulrichla declared this imperatively. Looking at his deputy officer, he seriously said, "If I go back and et Teacher now, he would definitely talk non stop."

"..."

"If it’s Lord Yila, listening to his teachings wouldn’t be a bad thing, right?"

The deputy officer who rode alongside Ulrichla said this, clearly showing his admiration for Yila, "If I could receive guidance from Lord Yila, even being lectured would be a pleasure."

"..."

Ulrichla: "..."

"Ore Lion Alila... If possible, I really wish you could understand what your words represent. Too bad you can’t, and you’re destined not to grasp that pain."

Ulrichla said this helplessly, shaking his head in a manner similar to Yila. He declared, "Inform everyone, change direction toward the north... Bandit eradication!"

*Eradicating those robbers who beca so due to disasters, due to inability to survive, due to family illnesses, and various other heart-breaking reasons... The innocent yet not innocent...*

**Bandits (civilians)**
