That explains a lot.

Do you have something against elves??!

-Yes, I hope the future brings us all many new positive impressions, and the series of recent sad tidings will be replaced by good news. -Having politely bid farewell to the Empress, Elrina headed toward Sonata Reime ~~and asked for photographs~~, and, beyond the formal dialogue, delicately inquired whether she, as one of the heirs to the throne, had any general plans for the near or distant future that could be implemented in the event of her election.

Sonata Reime replies that if elected, she sees her first task as granting greater freedoms to the ordinary citizens of the empire, primarily economic ones. — To this day and throughout all past centuries, a large share of our vast country's resources has, unfortunately, been spent and continues to be spent on the very gluttonous desires of the aristocracy, whereas they could have been spent on solving more pressing problems — raising the standard of living, developing science, improving the quality of education and medicine, strengthening national defense... There are many ways to use the country's resources for the benefit of all its citizens, and various entertainments and the wasteful lifestyle of high society representatives are not among them, in my opinion. At the very least, that is not what taxes should be spent on. — Sonata Reime smiled somewhat strangely. — Such views have made me quite unpopular among the aristocracy. This was to be expected; however, I am curious: what do you yourself think about this?

Revan, if I manage to get 20 thousand soon, will I have time to learn Idol before departing?

You'll have time, but only the access to the abilities themselves is unlocked here; you'll have to level up the skill and abilities yourself later

He gave too few points to my picture. I'll go look for a husband.

— To date, and throughout the past centuries, a large share of our vast country's resources has, unfortunately, been spent and continues to be spent on the very extravagant desires of the aristocracy, while they could have been spent on solving more pressing problems – improving the standard of living, developing science, improving the quality of education and medicine, strengthening defense capabilities... There are many ways to use the country's resources for the benefit of all its citizens, and various entertainments and the wasteful lifestyle of the upper classes are not among them, in my opinion. At the very least, this is not what taxes should be spent on. — Sonata Reim smiled strangely.

-I understand your position, however, the redistribution of economic resources is not a simple process. It will require, above all, decisive action and a firm will, but I am most concerned about the specific methods by which this can be achieved. -Elrina paused for a moment. -History tells us what can happen if the upper classes of our society are suddenly and too sharply oppressed, and this can have a wide variety of unpleasant consequences for the country.

— Such views have made me very unpopular among the aristocracy. This was to be expected, but I am curious: what do you think about this?

-My opinion on this is quite simple – progress always works more effectively than reforms, and I would not want it to have to be painfully "accelerated." My father practically went bankrupt because he did not want to keep up with the new economic trends of the Empire, and even now I have concerns about the current state of affairs. Many representatives of the nobility are already actively investing in private companies of Reim, and in the near future this trend will only continue, displacing those who are unable to adapt to the new life and leaving only those who can independently find a place in the progressive world. Therefore, personally, I believe that we should just wait a little: encourage, control, and not let it go beyond acceptable limits – and everything will happen on its own, and especially sharp intervention in the situation can only do harm.

“The duty of a true Knight is to protect the law and justice,” Bedivere declared pompously to the clerk. “I will find and apprehend the violator. But I need details – which store was robbed, as well as any other additional information you have.”

— There isn’t much information, — Tiella flipped through a booklet with assignment details, — the robber worked professionally and left no traces at the crime scene. The disappearance became known in the morning when "Grace" had just opened. However, there is also good news: the shop owner turned out to be paranoid enough to require his employees to secretly photograph visitors to the store. So, let me clarify right away – no, this is not legal. And no, it shouldn't be reported anywhere or anything should be done about it. In any case, here, take a look:

Do we pick up Halmeldir and go turn in the quest? There, we tell him in detail about the monsters encountered in the sewers and the danger they pose, asking for an increase in the reward. We also inform him that some crazy Nihonite has settled in the sewers. We say that we didn't deal with evicting him because the task was to destroy the monsters, and the issue with the homeless is already beyond our authority. Do you agree?

After cheering Elias up a bit in the morning and having breakfast together, Nihonka started begging for money for new clothes.
- Just 3340 Rumis. I want to look like a Reimi. I've been wearing Nihon dresses since I was a child, and I'm tired of it.

Elias takes his wallet and counts out exactly 4000 Rumis for her.

Alright, guys, I'm going to arrest Castor as payback for the stress he's caused.
-Very interesting. I'll keep the list. Does the same employee work in this store every day? And my second question is – judging by the clothing, at least some of the people in the photos may be representatives of the nobility. How far do my powers extend regarding the arrest and possible resistance during the arrest?

Where do we go?
Where do we end up when we save the world?

– Well, first of all, without substantial... SUBSTANTIAL evidence, it's best not to take any action. The same applies to situations where you don't feel you can arrest the criminal on your own. In such situations, it's better to report your suspicions and the information you've found to the city guards. But if everything is clear, there is evidence, and there is no risk of seriously harming the suspect, you can act at your own discretion.

Bedivere felt a strong sense of disappointment with such an answer. The work of a spy, an informant, who cannot decisively deal with the annoying riffraff, was not what he wanted. Nevertheless, he didn't like changing his mind halfway through:
-And what about the seller? I would like to talk to him.
"In detective novels, this is always the most important thing," he thought - "questioning witnesses."

Tiella writes the address of a "Grace" employee on a piece of paper and hands it to the Camelian. — It is her day off today, try not to bother the person too much, alright?

Tiella writes down the address of the "Gracia" employee on a piece of paper and hands it to the camellian. — She has a day off today, try not to bother the person too much, okay?

Bedivere looked back coldly, snatched the paper from Tiella's hand, and went to the address, and upon arriving, he immediately knocked on the door (unless, of course, it was a private house where you could immediately see the seller in the yard).

Well, it's simple. Maybe Elrine just imagined it because she's too suspicious, or something else...

No one answered the knock.

It seems the Emperor doesn't have any normal people in his family. No wonder he left.

Elrina goes to introduce herself to Larian Twyce. Given the recent events, she decided not to bother him unnecessarily by bringing up a potentially unpleasant topic related to his father's conspiracy and his brother's death. Instead, she briefly inquired about the current affairs of the duchy and then shifted the conversation to his recent decision to invest a significant portion of his own funds in Reimford.
-I understand that you are not currently interested in particularly large investments, but I would like, if possible, to participate in investments in this company in the future. The highly respected mayor of Reim, Elrin Majorelle, would be willing to write a recommendation for me, but first, I decided to introduce myself in person. Perhaps, in this sense, we could become good trading partners. Of course, now is not the time or place, but perhaps in the future, we could arrange a meeting with you or one of your representatives to discuss the possible details of this agreement. If such a thing is of interest to you, of course.

Whatever

I'm for retreating. I hope Menta will be compensated for the losses. Plus, on the way back, we can try casting a spell on the "fish."
Since we lost the book of enchantments (not without my fault, but I didn't expect Menta to be reduced to a beggar), should we spend our skill points on this skill?

Another roasted monster, the unintentional killing of Tsukiko, who was later successfully resurrected. All of this was becoming routine for the former homebody; the only thing that worried her was the well-being of her companions. She felt bad for her friend, who lost all her items due to another mishap.
Surprisingly, Livia was no longer bothered by the lack of control. Of course, she missed her warm, cozy, and soft bed. If someone had told her a couple of months ago that she would be digging through sewers in search of monsters, she would have laughed in the storyteller's face. But now she is not the same as before; now, every monster is an interesting discovery for her. And even the fact that life is not as it is in books no longer upsets the girl. What book could contain such interesting personalities as those who now surround her?
