The Executed Sage Reincarnates as a Lich and Begins a War of Aggression Chapter 227: The Sage Has Worries

After that, I took a walk under the night sky.

While repeating the accumulated self-questioning and self-answering in my thoughts, I tried to convince myself as I switched tracks.

Occasionally, I couldnt feel the sensation on my feet, but I then returned to myself and adjusted the spell accordingly.

My physicality wasnt deteriorating.

Rather, the opposite would be more likely.

As I was looking at my black hand, I felt a presence co up behind .

When I turned around, I saw Grom standing there.

He placed his fist on his chest and reported to .

Demon Lord-sama, the construction of the fortress on the southern continent has been completed. Please arrange the forces to be stationed there later.

I understand.

Nodding to the report, I continued and took my step.

Grom called out after a short pause.

Are you worried about sothing?

Im just wary about a new problem. Its not so much to call it a worry.

I shared the contents of my conversation with Gwen to Grom.

I also explained the counterasures proposed by her.

Grom was aware about both the Will of the World and the Savior.

So it wouldnt take long for him to understand how it worked after the explanation.

Grom stroked his chin in a mystified manner.

Fumu, so we are to prepare a herald and gather the Will of the World onto that person huh. That is a pretty clever thod. I guess its as expected of a beast of the outer world.

I was thinking of implenting this idea.

I agree. Its a good idea that could minimize the problem. Lets prepare the suitable herald later.

Aah, please do so.

Grom was involved in various fields of the Demon Lords Territory.

He was one of the chief executives that were just below .

He was also aware of the human resources in each area, so he should be able to prepare soone suitable for this idea.

The conversation stopped there and silence ca.

I continued to walk without minding it.

After finishing his report, Grom seed to stand silently behind .

Just as I wondered if he would leave as it was, he suddenly said.

It seems you are worried about sothing after all. If you dont mind, can you tell about it? I promise not to tell anyone else about it.

I stopped and looked at Grom.

The fla in one of his eyes seed weakened sohow.

It was smoldering as the wind blew.

As expected, he saw through .

Even among my subordinates, Grom paid a lot of attention to .

He often noticed minor changes in my mind and tried to be considerate about it.

I guess he managed that this ti as well.

I was certainly worried at the mont.

I turned my eyes away from it, but there was no doubt.

I tried not to face it due to my busy work, but it ca to when I got free ti like this.

Perhaps reconfirming the way of the Demon Lord has ended up becoming counterproductive.

As I admitted that after being pointed out, I muttered without looking at Groms face.

Im sorry.

Theres nothing for Demon Lord-sama to apologize for. Its my honor for you to consult with .

I sensed that Grom gave a bow.

He spoke calmly.

It was his usual state.

I had no idea what he was thinking inside.

I supposed he was just worried about .

Yet he didnt show it in his attitude and kept his stance relaxed to be my counselor.

I shouldnt waste his good intentions.

gh.

I tried to express the worry in my chest.

However, I hesitated reflexively.

I was afraid to speak.

However, I had no option to stop here.

I wasnt alone.

There were people I could rely on.

I decided to not keep it to myself.

After spending so ti stewing with the thought, I finally spewed out my worries.

I wish to show the state of the world today to that person.
