The Executed Sage Reincarnates as a Lich and Begins a War of Aggression Chapter 222: The Sage Tries to Consult

A few days later, I was standing on the balcony of the castle.

I was overlooking the condition of the royal capital from there.

It was so peaceful that it was hard to believe it was actually the sa land that was being targeted by everyone from all over the world.

The vibrant city continued to develop even today.

I was thinking while looking at people doing their activities.

Recently there was only one topic occupying my brain.

I found myself always being bothered by it.

Just as I was at a loss on what to do, Luciana ca beside .

She hung her cheek on her hand while resting her arm on the balcony fence.

Youre thinking about the Savior, right?

You know well.

Thats what cos to mind if we talk about your most recent worries.

Luciana whistled.

The pure tone was swept away by the wind.

After a bit of silence, she continued to talk.

Is it sothing to be worried about? Doesn't it just so happen that people are becoming more helpful to each other? Such kind people are everywhere, you know.

I also think so.

Then what are you worrying about?

After being questioned by Luciana, I turned to her.

Then I told her the answer.

Its because the feelings of the masses can sotis take shape.

Are you referring to the Will of the World?

Yes, Im being wary of that.

The Will of the World was built by the desires of humanity.

By just gathering wishes, it could transform into a great power.

It was a troubleso phenonon that didnt consider the result and aftermath.

It could even cause events that might destroy humanity in the end.

It was because humanitys naive wishes didnt properly consider the consequences of things in the long run.

Luciana growled with a difficult expression and proposed a solution.

If you're that worried, why not just destroy that city?

It would be a aningless slaughter. If I resort to such violence in the territory under our control, it would only trigger rebellions all over the Demon Lords territory.

Performing such an action ant that I had to create conflict in the peaceful Demon Lords territory.

If that did happen, it would be difficult to stop.

Furthermore, it would only produce more wishes from humanitys side to subdue the Demon Lord.

The Will of the World would make the world into a place where heralds could be born easily.

I didnt mind if that was all that would happen.

But there was a chance it would trigger a phenonon that might lead to world destruction, and that was bad.

The current scale of the Demon Lords territory was just right.

It was best to maintain that while adjusting the security.

Manipulating world affairs would be an important issue.

As I imagined various things, Luciana turned toward .

She looked at with pity.

Your policy is really difficult. It makes think so considering how simple things were during Diella-samas ti.

..If you compare it to Diellas policy, any other policy will seem difficult.

Uwah, what a bitter remark. If the person in question were to hear it, she might just end up crying.

Luciana laughed in a relaxed tone.

At that mont, she suddenly said,

If youre worried about the involvent of the Will of the World, you can just consult about it with the Great Spirit.

After the beast incident, the Great Spirit entered a slumber state. Unless a major incident happens, I doubt she will wake up.

A year ago, the defense chanisms including the Great Spirit went active due to the crisis.

Looking back at history, such an event was rare.

So much so that traces of one couldnt be found unless one looked back to the era of myths.

Because of that, she wouldnt be active for so ti.

In fact, no defense chanism had beco active in the past year.

Depending on the situation, it might remain dormant like this for decades to co.

However, Luciana shook her head at my words.

She sported a naughty smile on her face.

I think she would co if Demon Lord-sama called for her. Perhaps she is already awake now.

She is a defense chanism that protects the world. Its not like she is my friend, so I cant call her easily.

It doesnt hurt to try anyway. Co on, try to call for her.

For so reason, Luciana was being insistent about her opinion for today.

Although I had no idea why, she seed to have so sort of conviction.

Since she had insisted on it that much, it should be alright to try it.

First, I connected to Yuura through telepathy.

I tried to deliver my voice to the Great Spirit through her.

Oh, Great Spirit. I have a little request

What is it?

A voice replied from behind .

Looking back, I could see Yuura standing, who was currently being possessed by the Great Spirit.

She had appeared at an amazing speed.

Because of that, the office desk in the room had been turned over and countless docunts were flying in the air.

Luciana showed a smile as she saw the Great Spirit in front of her.

See? She did indeed co in a hurry.

I wasnt in a hurry. I rely answered the Demon Lords call.

The Great Spirit vehently denied Lucianas words.

It was hard to get a read on her emotions, but I could see that the Great Spirit had beco a little moody while looking at Luciana.

Luciana then muttered enjoy your ti and dropped down from the balcony with light movents.

She flew in the sky and retreated.

It seed she was being considerate so we could have an easier ti conversing.

I didnt expect for her to really answer my call, but it is convenient this ti around.

I looked at the Great Spirit.

She was also familiar with the Will of the World.

Perhaps I might be able to gather so clues regarding the Savior.

I felt bad for calling a defense chanism for such a trivial task, but since she was already here, I might as well consult with her.
