We walked toward the school building.
We didn’t want to disturb the school any more than we already had. This was a place to study. If they wanted to make a fool of themselves, they should do it somewhere else.
The inside of the school building was noisier than I had anticipated, and I could hear people giving speeches about the greatness of Liz Cather’s idealism.
From the looks of it, Liz Cather had yet to enter the classroom.
“Sure, Liz-sama may have fooled us! But I believe that only by pursuing this ideal will the world be a better place!”
I could hear many voices agreeing with these words.
We deliberately avoided their presence and moved to a seemingly calm location.

I could understand Liz Cather and Alicia taking the initiative and speaking out. It was, however, inappropriate for others to create such a ruckus in their absence.
It was like they were proving to themselves how stupid people in this academy were.
“A wise man looks for solutions before he attacks his opponent. It’s a perfect blend of harmony and threats.”
Duke muttered as he walked away.
“Well, nothing’s going to get resolved if we don’t do something about it.”
After I said this, Mel sighed as she said, “One crisis after another~.”
The old library was silent, even in the midst of all the noise.
It was an ideal place to discuss our future plans.
“What should we do~?”
“We want to get this riot under control as quickly as possible, don’t we?”
“Should we exile everyone?”
“That would make me feel sorry for the country that would accept them.”
“But if they are exiled to the Ravaal Kingdom, they will be able to meet Aliali! If that’s the case, maybe it’s not a bad idea for me to join the Aliali extremist group!”
“…I’ll ask Liz to lend a hand.”
Duke answered as if he didn’t hear Mel’s words. At the same time, the door to the old library swung open with a bang.

I shifted my gaze towards the door. I froze at the sight that came into my vision.
There were Albert, Henry, Alan, Curtis, Finn, Eric, and Gayle. And Liz Cather, too.
It suddenly occurred to me. There were two main actors in the current state of Duelkis Kingdom.
I had thought that Liz Cather was at the center of the story and that she would never change, but it was always Alicia who was the driving force of the story.
Given Liz Cather’s special abilities and nature, there would be no doubt that she would be an important factor. But at the same time, Alicia Williams was also an important factor.
Gayle must have spent the night convincing himself of Liz Cather’s story, as he stared silently at the unusual member of the Five Nobles, dark circles under his eyes. Gayle was serious and smart. That was probably why he was so conflicted.
As far as Alan was concerned, it seems that he too was brainwashed. It was worth the trip Liz Cather made to the Williams’ house yesterday. …Sorry for kidnapping you.
Finn and Curtis were the same as usual, but I felt that there was more light in their eyes than usual.
Everyone, including Liz Cather, had a different expression in their eyes. I had never seen them look like this before.
“They’re back to normal.”
I didn’t miss the moment when Duke smiled as he looked at them happily.
