"It's nothing to be concerned about."

"Heh?"

When Sam visited his grandmother and asked for Louise's advice, he was surprised by the simple reply.

Spies from other countries are not uncommon. Some noble families are connected to other countries without malicious intent. If they are outright traitors, they should be punished accordingly, but they are not punished merely for being connected. Rather, I believe that we can exchange information."

"Is that how it is?"

Yes, something like that. In fact, our people sometimes work for noble families in order to gather information in other countries, and sometimes they become mistresses or even wives. I was surprised when I was told about Louise's connection with the Demon King, but I guess it doesn't bother me too much.

Sam also thinks that having connections with other countries is not the same as treachery, but he is surprised at the flexibility of his grandmother, a former queen.

(No, no... (No, no... I guess it's because she is a royal grandmother that she thinks this way.)

I know I am a bit prejudiced, but from the point of view of knights and others who are loyal to their country, those who stand in the gray zone are traitors, too.

In fact, there were people who gave information to the people of Najaria in return for the fairy tale of immortality.

The difference between them is whether they harm the kingdom or not.

In the former case, there is something to be gained in exchange for giving information, if not harm, but in the latter case, there is nothing to be gained at all.

This is a big difference.

"Are you sure?"

"Rather, it would be more beneficial to have Louise, who has connections with the Demon King, as an ally."

"That's what I'd expect from an old lady."

Only," Hazel adds.

"The question is, what will Clyde think?"

"I know, right?"

Sam was also concerned about Clyde.

"I heard about Delight and Rachel, but Cedric and Louise are probably more troubling than the two of them. They have given him a hard time because of his relationship with the Demon Lord Lepsy, and there is a possibility that it may not end well for him.

Grandmother was right, Clyde has lived his life as a tomb guard of the Demon King Lepsy, and it must be significant for him that Louise is related to the Demon King and not to other countries.

Now that he is free from his responsibilities, he knows that he had a long and hard life.

I am sure that he sacrificed many things because of it.

Clyde wants to establish a friendly relationship with Vivian, but the fact that Vivian and Louise are in touch is a different matter.

"It seems that the Demon Lord Vivienne Claxtons is not a rough and tumble Demon Lord, and Clyde may be more likely to forgive Cedric and Louise if they can establish a friendly relationship."

"As for you, what do you think of the two of them?"

"If you ask me if I agree or not, I agree. A king is a solitary being. Just as Clyde had Francis, who could act as a human being, Cedric may need Louise.

"...... I think you may be right."

I don't know the details, but it seems that Frances, the first queen, was the one who took it all in for Clyde.

It is rare that a superior person can show his weakness.

Cedric would be better off if Clyde had Frances when he eventually becomes king.

"Fortunately, I am convinced that Louise is also concerned about her position, but she does not hate Cedric. If she really wanted to get information about this country as a subordinate of the Demon King, she would have gladly tied herself to Cedric."

"That's right. I see, that's why you were suffering."

My grandmother's words convinced me.

Sam could not understand why Louise had suddenly told him about her relationship with the Demon King Vivian.

She had said that she would be found out sooner or later, but Vivian would never reveal her inside information to her.

Perhaps Louise was suffering.

Because of her love for Cedric, she did not know which one to choose, Vivian, her benefactor or Vivian, the Demon Lord.

"So, the future of Cedric and Louise will be determined by the kind of relationship Sam has with Vivian, the Demon King.

"That's a big responsibility, isn't it?

It all depends on Sam's efforts.

"I'm sorry for all the trouble I've put you through, but all I can say is, as your grandmother, do your best."

"No problem. Cedric is Stella's brother and I hope that he will marry someone he loves. I will do my best to establish a friendly relationship with the Demon King Vivian. But before that, please convince Louise not to quit the palace and disappear.

"Yes, sir. Leave Louise to me."

The importance of the relationship with the Demon King Vivienne has grown again.

For the sake of his country and his family, Sam now had more reasons to do his best.
