Since it was good enough to make even Emilia feel so heartache, the effects of the video on the regular people of Carn went without saying.
Of course, there was no way such an 'absurd' advertisent would ever be 'cleared' by the regulatory authorities of the country, but an obstacle that could be solved by money wasn't really an obstacle at all, as far as the White Deer was concerned.
This was one of the 'beauties' of having an extrely corrupt administration, as the top brass of the governnt were soon to find out.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The final version of the clip was cut down to just one and a half minutes by the ti it was aired on various mainstream channels, but that didn't reduce its impact on people.
The editors were talented enough to know precisely the monts that needed more space and contemplation, as well as the scenes that had the maximum effect when they flitted by fast, creating a stunning effect when combined with Emilia's clip.
In fact, if left on its own, the 'advertisent' would only have had so inspirational effect at most, and could only have acted as a 'catalyst' in the future. The real reason it had such impact, however, was because of Emilia.
Almost at the sa ti as the video was aired, the crimson-haired girl had a clip of herself denouncing the 'attack' on her 'mascot' released to the public, along with a mountain of 'proof', causing a massive uproar.
Many couldn't believe that anyone could be so 'unlucky', while others criticized the governnt of Carn for having such poor public order and law enforcent.
"How outrageously deplorable must the situation in Carn be now for a little girl to face this kind of thing not once, but twice! And it hasn't even been that long since she was last attacked, right?"
"Can soone from Carn confirm if things are really this bad, or was little Emi just unlucky?"
"Hello, I'm a citizen. I can confirm that not only are things 'that bad', but even worse. Little Emi was at least able to survive because of her exceptional skill, which I greatly admire. The rest of us who beco the targets of these vermin… aren't really so lucky."
Naturally, so people were quick to co to Carn's defense in a panic.
"This person is a liar!"
"Carn does have so cri, but so does every other country! If you look at the statistics, you'll see that overall, we're not really that bad compared to everyone else!"
"These people spouting nonsense are just trying to sar our image out of malicious intentions!"
Of course, Emilia watched the fierce debates spark off with keen interest, and occasionally even added fuel to the fire. "Little Emi is as fierce as she is cute, but I still feel sorry for anyone else who could have been in her place. Yes, there is cri all over the world, but that's not an excuse to let your people suffer like this, right?"
Her eyes turned sharp. "If things like these were still common in Blue Dawn, I would never be able to get a good night's sleep."
Not to ntion the people of Carn, even the manager who had been sowhat dissatisfied at having her 'image plan' for little Emi ruined by the higher-ups felt moved. 'Our Princess really has a heart of gold, doesn't she? I was only thinking about making Emi endearing and famous, but she only wants everyone to be happy and safe.'
Thinking like this, perhaps it was fine if little Emi didn't reach the 'peak' that she envisioned, and the manger quickly made up her mind. "Alright, since 'cutie pie' plan won't work, let's just make her the 'spirit of justice' instead!"

Almost overnight, it was as if a wave of 'revolution' swept through the whole country's heart, and the governnt officials couldn't help panic.
With Emilia's involvent in the matter, it was impossible not to think of their country following in the steps of Blue Dawn, and becoming another stepping stone for the crimson-haired beauty.
"We can't let this continue!"
Of course, with their combined efforts, it didn't take long to co up with a solution.
"Ban the comrcial imdiately, and restrict all movents of the White Deer Corporation while investigate the matter!"
Naturally, a ban was usually not a good idea when it ca to preventing so idea from spreading, since it usually only helped spread it faster because of the subsequent controversy, but they could no longer be bothered to care about such things.
Looking at things in order, it was impossible to not see everything that played out around little Emi ever since her arrival in Carn as a huge conspiracy against them.
If her image was allowed to grow any further, it wouldn't take long for her to beco the icon of a new revolution in people's minds, and it would be the start of endless troubles for them no doubt.
With the resources at the White Deer Corporation's disposal, such a thing wasn't just a 'possibility'!
Unfortunately, even though the speed of their actions was very fast in terms of governnt bureaucracy, it was already too late.
One day was more than enough to completely take away any hope of 'suppressing' the matter, and unless they decisively cut off all forms of 'communication' within Carn's borders, this was a poison that would continue to 'spread' uncontrollably!
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The shocking announcent of the imdiate implentation of the nationwide 'Misinformation Prevention Program for the People' left many dumbfounded, and countless people furious.
Not to ntion that they could no longer access the internet for the ti being, even their phones were only allowing calls to specific numbers in their phone book, and nothing else!
Moreover, the gangsters all over the country seed to have been stimulated by sothing unholy, and beca even more fierce and violent than usual. It was as if they were afraid that their existence would be threatened if they didn't act up now, making everyone around them miserable.
And to make matters even worse, the country's mainstream dia seed to have beco completely oblivious to what was happening around them, covering only mundane topics while ignoring the veritable elephant in the room.
Carn's law enforcent, as usual, was similarly pretending to be blind and deaf.
The people were understandably furious.
Did the governnt officials think they were no different from display goldfish, and would forget everything just like that?
Wrong!
