They don't want me to work harder

[You had a conflict]

[You are seriously injured, defeated by your opponent, and captured]

Ah this...

To retract his preface, Richard has a profound understanding of the truth. When you feel that you may be unlucky, don't be discouraged in a hurry, because... you may be even more unlucky next.

Okay, now I'm going to be sent back to the empire.

But can you at least provide the captives with some basic living conditions?Then maybe I can take the opportunity to recover and escape or something...

[You were shackled and put into a cage that suppressed magic power. You went all the way south and soon arrived at the border fortress of the empire. After the fortress soldiers received you, they escorted you with heavy troops and continued southward.]

[Midway, the escorting team encountered a mysterious masked nun]

[The nun suddenly launched an attack, knocking all the guards unconscious with just her fists. Such terrifying power and precision will surprise you]

One punch nun huh?

Richard raised his eyebrows, already guessing who was on the other side.

[The other party took off your shackles and took off his own mask. Sure enough, it was Luvia]

["Sorry, please bear with me for a while."]

[After she said this to you, she put you in a big sack and put you in a big iron box]

Richard had a bad premonition.

[She carried the iron box with you on her back and passed through the many passes of the empire. You can hear her talking to people outside and even being questioned, but in the end no one can find you]

[In the end, you successfully arrived at a manor on the outskirts of a certain city, and then she opened the box and took you into a basement]

hiss……

Richard gasped, making a small contribution to global warming.

He admitted that as a fugitive now, he was indeed not suitable for public appearances, but in the basement and so on... Sister Sword Master, Auntie the weird primitive, you can't help it anymore, right?

Oh, woman.

He swallowed, waiting for the verdict of the beauty in front of him, and then he...

["Richard, please join me and change this country!"]

...and heard an unexpected answer.

To tell the origin of this sentence, we have to go back a long time.

Like Richard, Luvia now makes some plans for herself before each simulation.

And the goal she wanted to achieve in this simulation was still to find a way to keep Richard by her side.

Then she saw Richard being sent to prison...

Ah this...

To be honest, for a moment, Luvia felt that she was afraid that she had to apply to be transferred to the warden of the Central Prison so that she could be with Richard, who was serving a life sentence.

Well, it’s not impossible if you think about it carefully, and it’s not like she can do whatever she wants in prison...

Cough!

Random thoughts aside, after the embarrassing incident in the last simulation happened again, Luvia also fell into new thinking.

She believes that Richard is a hero with truly high moral standards, not afraid of life and death, and who cares about his country. However, there is too much corruption and depravity in the empire, which leads to the fact that even if Richard wants to stay in the empire, sooner or later he will have to leave the empire. Send it in yourself.

For both parties to coexist, one must make changes.

Luvia has no confidence in asking Richard to change, and she feels that Richard's appearance is the best and what really attracts her...

She liked him like this.

Then the empire can only be changed.

And leaving aside Richard, as a native of the Empire, she also hopes that her motherland can become a fair and just, truly sacred country!

Therefore, after Richard escaped from prison, she rushed there as soon as possible, rescued him, and made his request.

the other side.

Richard blinked while watching Luvia's conversation.

Holy empire or something...

This sentence is simply a sick sentence. The empire has never been sacred!

However, he was still very happy that Luvia was willing to work hard in this direction.

Even if you can't score nine or ten points in the end, it's definitely meaningful to make five or six points.

And this is also in line with his goal of participating in the internal struggle of the empire and trying to save the country through curves.

and so……

[You agreed to Luvia’s invitation]

[Luvia let you out of the basement, and gave you an exquisite human skin mask, and a complete set of identities as a border citizen of the empire]

[From then on, you changed your name to Charlie and became Luvia’s humble follower on the surface.But behind the scenes, you are her closest comrade-in-arms and advisor]

[Now, you will change the empire together! 】

It feels like we are on the branch line of the second simulation...

Back to the topic, as the saying goes, a thousand miles cannot be achieved without taking small steps. Richard did not intend to accomplish such a big thing as changing the empire overnight.

After all, he couldn't let Luvia bring a gun to a banquet attended by the emperor and shout: "Your Majesty, how can you run the country well with these insects?", and then click, click, click, right?

Therefore, he formulated a three-pronged strategy for the upper, middle and lower levels.

The upper level, that is, the highest level of military force, mainly focuses on one thing - urging Luvia to become a legend!

There are legends and even gods behind the enemy. If you don't become a legend, then everything you do will be useless!

Anyway, Sister Sword Master, you are not good at internal fighting, so leave the brain-working to me and let me be your external brain while you concentrate on upgrading!

As for the middle-level, they will naturally continue to support the cause of conservatives!

It just so happened that when Richard founded the New Times, Luvia provided strength. Even if Richard is gone, she still has influence on the newspaper. After some operations, it can continue to fight for the conservatives. .

In other aspects, Richard also secretly guided Luvia to set up a company and invest properly, prompting the emergence of commercial trusts in advance...

In this way, he can use the newly created interests to win over others. Secondly, he can also targetedly support the industrial and military-industrial complex in the north. Even if it cannot change the desire of the military-related parties for war, it will at least make the northward faction face it. I feel more confident when I send troops south.

There are only so many positions of general, only so many positions of power and authority, only so much military expenditure can be allocated by the empire every year, and everyone in the north and south wants to gain military glory, so the contradictions here can still be put to good use. .

After all, Connaught is in the south!Just support the North without any brains!

As for the lower levels, Richard hoped to truly bring a new culture to the empire.

On the one hand, he needs to rely on the efforts of newspapers. On the other hand, he wants to return to his old profession of second simulation, composing operas and writing novels.

In these works, he either creates righteous protagonists who expose and fight against the chaos of the empire, or he depicts the suffering of the colonized or oppressed people from the perspective of them.

For example, he plans to write a novel called "Uncle Tom's Cabin". At the beginning, he will tell the story of a brave and kind-hearted indigenous people who converted to the goddess of order, so that readers can empathize deeply. In the middle, he will write about his story of a little girl who was enslaved in order to save the empire. The businessman caught him, brutally sold him to the empire, and was finally sent to a zoo, where he was exhibited like an animal...

[Your three-layer strategy of upper, middle and lower levels has achieved results]

[Luvia’s strength has improved rapidly, and she is only one step away from breaking through to the legend. However, on the other hand, she has also developed a weird habit of asking: “Charlie, what do you think?” when something happens]

[The strength of the conservatives and the northbound faction is gradually increasing, and there is a faint tendency to suppress the progressive, southbound, and naval factions]

[Half of the books you secretly found someone to publish on your behalf were banned, but the remaining half sold well, especially "Uncle Tom's Cabin", which caused countless people to be dissatisfied with the ending and wanted to send you daggers and bullets... But They didn’t know where you lived, so they sent it to the publisher, which accidentally led the latter to embark on the road of reselling arms]

[Under your influence, humanitarian thoughts gradually began to appear within the empire]

Richard smiled.

He was very satisfied with being able to achieve this point.

As for letting the empire clean up the evil scum and completely switch from militarism to xenophobia, that is not something that one or two people can solve. He has never had such extravagant hopes.

Unless a war breaks out in the future and the ever-victorious empire suffers a major setback and wipes out a generation, it will be possible...

Next, be patient and push forward slowly... Huh?

[Luvia holds a hat and asks you: "Charlie, what do you think?"]

Although he has been using an external brain for a while, this is the first time that Richard has encountered this kind of problem.

Aren’t they usually asked about major policies, business strategies and the like?

Why ask about the hat?

[You replied casually: "It's pretty good-looking."]

[Luvia bought this hat and gave it to you. Your favorability towards Luvia has increased.]

hiss……

[Luvia holds a recipe and asks you: "Charlie, what do you think?"]

[You answer, those dishes look delicious]

[Luvia cooked a delicious meal for you according to this recipe that night, and your favorability towards Luvia increased]

[Luvia comes to ask you with a magic book...]

I just know that your true nature is hard to change!

Richard's brows trembled, thinking: Luvia, you should have a lot of serious things to do now, right?

Holiday homework, you...ah, no, have you been promoted to legendary rank?

To be bothered by me is simply not doing your job properly!

With this kind of skill, you might have been promoted long ago...

[Tonight, Luvia officially proposes to you]

[She is sorry that you cannot hold the wedding openly, but she promises that the day of victory will definitely come]

[This is your long-awaited request that you can’t refuse. You didn’t care about anonymity and agreed to Luvia without any hesitation. From then on, you became husband and wife...]

no……

Why are you talking about me here as if I am the kind of original character who works hard behind the scenes and will be replaced by the mistress sooner or later!
