Untitled Part 58

"Do you like it?"

"Of course, Maid Alice. Come to think of it. You kept looking outside, so perhaps..."

"Yes. I'm worried if my mother and my younger siblings are doing well."

"You don't have to worry. The Blue guild members are already protecting them. If I get into trouble, Alice-nim's family will be protected."

"Please refrain from saying that. I don't want the Honorary Bishop to get hurt. Okay, now... Is it time to leave?"

"Yes. Let's leave, Oscar-nim."

"Yes, Honorary Bishop."

'Cute.'

The way she bit her lips tightly was cute in her own way.

However, her face started to get serious.

Probably as far as the last part was ahead, she'd have mixed feelings, too.

'It must have been hard.'

However, it must have been that rewarding.

It felt like I was looking at someone else. I got goosebumps for some reason when I saw Oscar with a stiff expression.

When I opened the door, the first people I saw were Max and Jung Hayan, who both looked very nervous.

I thought they would be nervous since I explained every single day how important this was.

In Jung Hayan's case, she glanced at this side and inflated her cheeks, so she didn't seem to like Alice very much.

Of course, Jung Hayan never did like any woman, but as the time spent with Maid Alice was getting longer recently, she'd been feeling under the weather.

'I have to give her some attention.'

As much as she had endured and worked hard, I had to soothe her after this work was over.

I gently waved, and she smiled in return.

Next to her, Max, the museum manager, was jumping with both arms up as if he'd thought I waved at him. When I sent the signal asking if it was ready, he made a circle with his arm.

Sun Hee-young, Ye-ri, and Hwang Jeong-yeon, who I hadn't seen in a long time, were also present.

Except for the newbies that went to protect Maid Alice's family, and Cho Hyejin, who was called by Kim Hyun-sung, all the Blue members were gathered.

Of course, democratic fighters 'Bark Teoku' and Ahn Ki-mo were still waiting to blend with the imperial people.

It was then that the Maid Alice, no, Oscar stepped to the podium.

'It's now beginning.'

It seemed that she had already memorized everything as I saw her speaking without looking at the speech that I'd written.

Charlia, who hadn't even tried that much, came to mind.

'She's a hundred times better. Much more capable. Yes.'

I wanted to focus on the last part of the speech, but I had to head to where Jung Hayan and Max were as I had other work to do.

Lee Jihye spoke to me while I was moving. Her voice pierced through the cries of Oscar and the imperial people.

"It's beginning."

"Yes, I guess."

"I've been curious to death, but I can finally see it. I was really curious if, by any chance, Charlotte could calm down the imperial people, because that's the most important thing."

"If she can fix the one blow I prepared, I will call Charlotte a god."

"So, you must be confident, right? Honestly, I don't mean I don't understand what you're thinking... it's just not very likely to be realized. Historically, it's not there wasn't anything that could be called an honorary revolution or a bloodless revolution at all..."

"Wasn't there one in England?"

"Ohh. The one that made James II exile abroad? That didn't mean democratization was achieved. It is meaningful that the Bill of Rights was drawn up, but... and I think that one has spilled blood, too. I don't know if Charlotte knows this, but if she's taking that as a model, I guess we can say it is. Corrupt, incompetent, and of course, a self-righteous imperial family mixed with religious issues... the people are also complaining."

"I don't know much about world history..."

"You don't need to know. It's obvious, anyway. Although it has changed a lot, the plan is to recover the imperial people who have risen, release the troops that have been built up, and go with the people to press the Emperor. In the case of the British bloodless revolution, there is a difference that the troops came from outside, but I don't think it's that different. It will spill blood, but we can minimize it. That's a good plan. It's a good idea... Personally, I don't think Charlotte is stupid. In fact, I even have respect for her."

"I didn't think you would say that, but it's surprising."

"Originally, historical philosophers, innovators, and idealists are like her. The example must be different, but would those who have put industrialism to the world, or who have chosen it as a state system, have made that choice because they were stupid? It's not just those people. Most of all, political idealists are what can be called geniuses."

"You are right."

"The problem is why these people fail."

"I think I know that, too."

"What is it?"

"It's a personal thought."

"If it's a personal thought, it's rather welcome."

"They believed that other humans would also pursue their ideals."

I was no longer interested in what Charlotte thought, but it was a bit heartbreaking to find out that she believed in the imperial people and those in her camp.

I bet some in her power did not agree with her ideas.

However, what mattered right now was not her internal circumstances, but what route my boat took to its destination.

It had been her who had been running the boat so far, but from this moment on, I would.

At the moment, our Oscar was giving an interesting speech.

I thought it was just the right timing.

"Hayan, Max, release the video."

We couldn't watch this good thing alone.

A magical hologram large enough to be seen from outside the window appeared.

The screen created in the air was large enough to be seen by all the capitalists' imperialists, which revealed Oscar standing in front.

Lee Jihye, staring at the scene blankly, looked at the video in front of her and turned her head toward the hologram that Max was preparing with a rather astonished face.

"W-What is that?"

"What else could it be? This is the video to be released next time."

"I know that. The question I am asking is... what would the content be?"

"It's a list of the nobles and their activities going in and out of the black market I run."

"Y... you're crazy. Oppa... this is really..."

"Puh-ha-ha-ha-ha."

"I-I think you went too far. This is... too..."

"Why? Nuna... Do you think that's too much?"

"No... It's good. To be honest... I got a little wet."

I didn't know what exactly she meant by that, but Lee Jihye's voice had begun to tremble subtly.

Naturally, I smiled.

I was sure it wouldn't take too long for the anger of those who were staring at the magic hologram to explode.

Anyone seeing this video with a vested interest would definitely think that way.
