"Sir Oswin." A servant entered the room and called out.
"What? Is it another complaint?"
The head of the Security Division, Oswin Aiere, questioned with a frustrated and annoyed look on his face.
"Didn't I tell you to collect all the complaints and only give them to me when you collect 100 of them?
Wait, did you collect 100 of them already!? But you just came in an hour ago."
Oswin's face paled.
"No, that's not it, there are only 43 right now,"
"Then why are you here?"
"It is Princess Evane."
"Princess Evane? She is here?"
Oswin stood up.
"No, I am here because she has summoned all of you and all your direct subordinates, urgently."
"Huh?" Oswin frowned.
"Your subordinates are already waiting for you outside."
"But why have she summoned us?"
"The messenger didn't clarify, he only told us that all the higher-ups of the Security Division, Management Division, and the Royal Guards are summoned."
"A-alright, I will be there, wait for me."
"As you command." The servant nodded and walked out.
A frown appeared on Oswin's face, he quickly wore his coat, then walked in front of a Mirror and fixed his appearance, once he was ready, he walked out and saw all his direct subordinates waiting for him.
"Shall we go, Sir Oswin?"
Oswin nodded.
The 8 of them started walking towards the Royal Hall.
"…"
Once they walked into the Royal Hall, Oswin and his subordinates turned silent as their eyes fell on over 100 people, tied up and lying on the floor.
Above them, on the Throne, sat Evane, and behind her stood the Queen's Husband and her Harem Sisters…
Oswin's eyes then fell on the people of the Management Division and the Royal Guards, who, just like them, had shocked and dumbfounded looks on their faces.
"You people are here."
Evane called out.
"Queen Evane."
Oswin, the Head of the Management Division, and the Leader of the Royal Guards bowed their heads at the same time.
Their subordinates followed their actions as well, however, at the same time, a frown appeared on their faces.
'Queen Evane?'
Why are they calling her the 'Queen?'
Also, why was Princess Evane sitting on the Royal Throne?
Where is the King? What about the Royal Ministers?
Where are they all?
They couldn't understand.
However, seeing that their heads had no problem with what they were seeing, they didn't raise their voice either.
"These were all the Spies who we captured in the first round of cleanup. The proof of their crimes is tied on their backs."
Only when Evane pointed it out did they notice some papers that were tied on those people's backs.
"In total, there are 117 of them, you can read, copy, take, or do whatever you want with these proves, I don't care.
However, I want you all to imprison all of them, make sure that they don't kill themselves, calm the people who are panicked, and arrange their execution in two days, by today."
"B-By today?"
Oswin stuttered.
Evane glanced at him and narrowed her eyes,
"Is that hard?"
"W-We can do all of that, however, currently, the panic amongst people is too high, and our offices are flooded with complaints, questions, and whatnot. Calming them down by today…
It would certainly not be an easy task."
"…"
Evane placed her finger and thumb on her chin and started thinking about it.
"You already have all the proves you need, why are you worrying so much?"
Suddenly, Amaya questioned.
"I don't understand." Oswin tilted his head in confusion.
"Use the proof we gave you to talk with everyone.
'The people who were captured were the people who were the spies who have been eating out our Kingdom from within. They were the enemies who were planning our fall and were helping enemy nations. Capturing them all like this was a great mission that was only executed today after many years of planning. Now with all the traitors gone, the Kingdom would operate a lot more smoothly than before, with the innocent people receiving many benefits and security will never be sacrificed.'
Using words like 'more security', 'benefits' or more positive words should calm them down without any problems."
"Mhm, you people should divide all the work amongst you.
The Management Division should calm the people, the Security Division should prepare the execution and the Royal Guards should imprison these people.
I don't think all this is anything complicated at all."
Ember nodded to herself.
"Or maybe they are just incompetent?"
Suddenly, Nux teased with a small smile on his face.
Oswin narrowed his eyes as he glanced at Nux.
"Surely Nux is wrong, right?" Suddenly, Evane questioned.
"Yes, Queen Evane." Oswin nodded.
"Then prove him wrong," Evane ordered.
""As you command, Queen Evane.""
All the heads bowed their heads.
"You are excused."
Evane then closed her eyes.
"Ummm, Queen Evane…" Suddenly, the Head of the Management Division, Esmond, called out.
"What is it?" Evane glanced at him and questioned.
"You said that this was the result of the First Round… does that mean there are more rounds…?" Esmond.
"There should be more Spies hiding in the Palace, yes, however, these were all the spies that had ties with the higher-ups, the ones who were responsible for the main information leak.
Of course, that doesn't mean that I am planning to leave the spies left, there will be more cleanup rounds in the future."
Evane answered, then suddenly, her expression changed. She glanced at Amaya and the woman nodded. A small smile appeared on Evane's face as she turned toward the Head of the Management System.
"Aldway."
She called out.
"At your command, Queen Evane."
"I have another job for you.
Once you have calmed everyone down, make an announcement.
'For the next 7 days, everyone is allowed to file a 'Suspicion' against anyone they want. If their suspect actually turns out to be a spy, he or she will be awarded greatly. You are to create a separate division to manage that all. The Division will come under your upkeep, you can even appoint someone you trust as a Leader.
Talk with Lady Amaya here to make the system more robust so that it is not misused.
Establish this Division within the next 2 days.
This way, the spies won't just have to worry about us, but even the people around them as well.
From now on,
Everyone will be hunting the spies."
"Sir Oswin." A servant entered the room and called out.
"What? Is it another complaint?"
The head of the Security Division, Oswin Aiere, questioned with a frustrated and annoyed look on his face.
