Chapter 11: problems in the kingdom

Above the clouds, on a luminous throne untouched by time, Goddess Amalthea gazed angrily at the happenings in the mortal world. Her normally graceful face was now hardened, and her eyes blazed with unbearable rage.

“Your death is sad, Takumi,” she muttered. “You were completely useless.”

She stood up, her golden dress shimmering in the divine light. However, even though Takumi had failed, she would not let this world fall so easily. “It's not over yet,” she said in a firm tone. "There is still another hero. He is... the adventurer."

Althvaris City

Deep in the south, in the city of Althvaris known for its architectural beauty and bustling night market, a Rank S adventurer enjoys the luxuries of life. His name is Hiroto Kamizawa or simply Hiro, a man with disheveled black hair and piercing eyes who is full of confidence.

Hiro is not only an S Rank adventurer, but also a living legend. With his powers, he has conquered the most dangerous dungeons, defeated dragons, and even saved the kingdom from destruction and is nicknamed the "Dragon Slayer". He lives in a large mansion on the outskirts of the city with his harem of five women

Isolde Ravenshada , an elven witch with the ability to master elemental magic and illusion. She is known for her intelligence and is often the group's strategic planner

Freya Ironfang, a wolf beastkin with extraordinary physical strength. As the protector of the pack, Freya is always at the forefront of battling

Eleanor Veylindor, a human Priestess who possesses sacred healing powers. She is a symbol of calmness and always keeps the team in balance

Selene, a tactician assassin who uses her agility to take out enemies suddenly

Brigid Emberforge, a spear and shield wielder who is always ready to help Hiro on the front lines

Hiro sat leisurely in his office, enjoying a glass of wine while reading reports on monster activity around Althvaris. Suddenly, a white light enveloped his body, and he found himself standing in a sacred space that was familiar to him. Before him, the Goddess Amalthea stood with a gentle smile.

Hiro bowed respectfully. "Goddess Amalthea, it is a great honor to meet you again. What is it that has suddenly called me?"

Amalthea looked at him with warmth. "Hiro, my faithful hero, I just wanted to see you again. It's been a long time since we last spoke."

Hiro smiled, feeling appreciated. "Thank you, Goddess. But, I think you have something important to say?"

Amalthea nodded slowly. "That's right. I have an important task for you. There is someone named Ellizabeth Laynrad, a Saint in the new kingdom of Melavonia. She is a great threat to the balance of this world. I want you to kill her."

Hiro was surprised for a moment, but he hid his doubts. "Saint? A threat? This sounds unusual, but if that is your request, I will carry it out."

Amalthea smiled confidently. "You are a great hero, Hiro. I believe only you can handle this. Cheer up, and bring peace to this world.

When the light returned to his body, Hiro found himself back in his mansion. His face was solemn, but he immediately called his harems to prepare for the trip to Melavonia.

In the main room of the mansion, the five women gathered curiously.

Isolde spoke first. "A trip to Melavonia? Interesting. Are we going to face a big enemy this time?"

Freya smiled excitedly. "Finally some action again! I haven't destroyed anything in a long time."

Eleanor, however, seemed the most enthusiastic. "Melavonia? That's where Saint Elizabeth Laynrad lives! I idolize her so much! She's the saint who built a new kingdom after defeating Nevalheim. I can't wait to meet her!"

Hiro was stunned. "You know her?"

Eleanor nodded vigorously. "Of course! She is a legend among the priests. A Saint so young, yet possessing great wisdom and power. She's my inspiration!"

This reaction left Hiro even more confused. How could someone who was considered a threat by the Goddess be the idol of a priestess? He tried to hide his unease.

Selene Duskthorn grinned. "Looks like it's going to be an interesting trip. Saint, huh? I want to see what she's like."

Brigid Emberforge added, "Maybe I can learn something from her new kingdom. They must have some interesting weapons."

Hiro tried to remain calm. He couldn't tell them about his mission or his relationship with Goddess Amalthea. "Alright, we'll leave tomorrow morning. Get ready."

As night fell, Hiro sat alone on the balcony of his mansion, thinking about this mission. "If Ellizabeth is a Saint, shouldn't she be loyal to the Goddess Amalthea? Why would the Goddess call her a threat?"

He sighed. "I have to find out for myself. But it won't be easy, especially if Eleanor idolizes her so much."

Determined, Hiro prepared for the journey that would test his loyalty to the Goddess and his faith in the truth.

The morning sun shines down on the city of Althvaris as Hiro and his harems prepare to begin the journey to the New Kingdom of Melavonia. Hiro leads the way with a determined face, though his mind is filled with doubts about this mission.

“Eleanor,” Hiro began, "tell me more about Saint Elizabeth. What makes you idolize her so much?"

Eleanor smiled brightly. "She is a symbol of hope! At a young age, she led an army against the demon-conspiring kingdom of Nevalheim and won!"

Hiro just nodded. The words confused him even more. How could someone who looked so noble be a threat?

On the other hand, in Melavonia

At her magnificent room, Ellizabeth Laynrad sat with a serious expression. She stared at the large map showing the development of her kingdom. The buildings were beginning to be completed, and the official inauguration of the kingdom was approaching.

However, her thoughts were interrupted. Goddess Amalthea would not give up. After Takumi's failure, she knew the Goddess would send another hero.

Elliz stood up from her chair and decided to visit the underground laboratory where Mira worked. If the Goddess was going to send a new threat, perhaps Mira could create a tool to help her.

The dark underground passages led Elliz to the large door of Mira's lab. When the door opened, the smell of metal and sparks greeted her. Mira, with tangled hair and protective goggles, greeted her with a small smile.

"Your majesty, you've come at the right time," Mira said as she wiped her sweat.

Elliz looked around and nodded. "This lab is getting more and more impressive. You really are a genius, Mira."

Elliz's gaze fell on a large workbench covered with project molds. She picked up one of the molds and examined it. "What is this? A sword? Wait, a plasma sword?"

Before Elliz could ask further, Mira suddenly threw something at her, a freeze bomb.

The explosion of ice instantly froze Elliz's feet to the floor. She was shocked and tried to move, but the ice was too strong. "Mira! What are you doing?"

Mira did not answer. She swung the plasma sword she had just finished making at Elliz. In one swift slash, Elliz's left arm was cut off because Elliz had time to dodge.

Elliz endured the pain, blood flowing freely from the wound. The cut end of her arm melted from the heat of the plasma sword. She tried to move, but the ice on her legs began to crack. With a forced movement, she broke the ice, but her leg was severely injured from the pressure.

Elliz fell to the floor, staring at Mira with a hateful gaze. “What the hell?!”

Mira stood up with a heavy sigh, her hand still holding the dimly glowing plasma sword. Her eyes were full of anger as she looked at Elliz, who despite being badly injured, still wore a relaxed smile on her face.

“I know what you did to Lyra!” Mira shouted, her voice trembling with anger. "You brainwashed her! You turned her into a monster who no longer has a heart!"

Elliz chuckled, blood flowing from the wound on her cut arm. "Oh, Mira... You're blaming me for Lyra's actions? She was only doing her job. If any rebels die, it's their own fault."

Mira gritted her teeth, anger burning in her chest. "You have no heart, Ellizabeth! You manipulate everything for the sake of your power!"

However, before Mira could attack again, a sword blade suddenly pierced her back. The sharp pain made her stagger forward. She turned her head and saw Lyra standing behind her, holding a sword that was covered in blood.

"Lyra... why are you here?" Mira asked in a weak voice, her eyes full of confusion and sadness.

Elliz laughed loudly, the sound of her scorn filling the room. "You really are a fool, Mira. Lyra has always been loyal to me. She must have suspected your betrayal during my absence...."

Lyra pulled her sword out of Mira's body and looked at her coldly. "Where is...Edrann.." asked Mira with heavy breathing

Lyra stood looking down at Mira, "Edrann? He's being taken care of by Darius and his team."

Elliz looked at Lyra proudly. "Good job, Lyra. You're always reliable."

Mira fell to the floor, blood flowing from her wound. She tried to look at Lyra with hope, hoping there was some humanity left in her. However, Lyra only gave her a low look, as if Mira was just an insect worth destroying.

Elliz, who had now drunk the healing potion given by Lyra at the table, stood in front of Mira with a perfectly recovered body. She looked at Mira with hatred.

"You're ungrateful, Mira," Elliz said in a cold voice. "I save you, give you a place in this kingdom, and this is your return? Betrayal?"

Elliz stomped hard on Mira's body, making Mira flinch in pain. She did so repeatedly, her anger exploding relentlessly. "You fucking bastard! You don't deserve to live!"

Mira could only take the pain, her body too weak to fight back. However, her eyes kept looking at Lyra, hoping for a change of heart. But Lyra did not show the slightest compassion.

Finally, Elliz stopped. She took out a magic gun from her waist and pointed it at Mira's head. “The punishment for a traitor... is death.”

A shot rang out, and Mira's head shattered. Her body drooped on the floor, blood flowing down the laboratory floor.

Elliz stared at the lifeless body coldly. "What a pity. I'll have to find a new alchemist."

Meanwhile in the palace

Edrann was running at full speed, his breathing ragged as he ran down the corridor then jumped out the window, continuing to run and jump from rooftop to rooftop. His eyes searched for an escape route, but the footsteps behind him didn't stop approaching. Darius and his team, including several assassins, chased him relentlessly.

"Damn it!" muttered Edrann, drawing his dagger as three assassins appeared in front of him. He fought them nimbly, dodging attacks and countering with quick slashes.

Suddenly, three other assassins who were his allies in the previous mission appeared to help him. They attacked the pursuers, paving the way for Edrann to continue running.

A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.

"Go, Edrann! We'll hold them off!" shouted one of the assassins, thrusting a dagger into the enemy's neck.

But just as Edrann was about to escape, Darius appeared, blocking his path.

Edrann halted his steps, drawing his short sword. "You really haven't changed, Darius. I think there's a bit of humanity in you."

Darius gave him a cold stare, raising his sword. "Traitors don't deserve to live. My loyalty to Ellizabeth is not just out of fear, but because she is the ruler!"

The fierce battle began. The sound of clanking metal filled the air as both sides attacked each other with incredible speed. Edrann tried to attack with strategy, but Darius had the advantage of strength and experience.

As the battle intensified, one by one Edrann's allied assassins died. Finally, Edrann himself was surrounded by Darius' troops.

Darius approached, looking down at the exhausted Edrann with a cold expression. "You chose the wrong path, Edrann. Traitors to the kingdom must be put to death."

Edrann tried to rebel, but the soldiers held him tight. In a voice full of rage, he shouted, "You are all demons! You are no better than the monsters you hate!"

However, his shouting stopped when a soldier swung his sword. In an instant, Edrann's head separated from his body, blood splattering on the ground.

Darius turned his face away, sheathing his sword again. "Remove his corpse. A traitor like him doesn't deserve a funeral."

Morning came, and Elliz sat in her office with a serious expression. Before her, Darius and Lyra stood at attention, awaiting orders.

“Listen,” Elliz said in a sharp tone. "I believe there are still traitors among us. Find them and kill them. Don't let this leak out to the public."

Darius and Lyra nodded, accepting the order without question. After they left, Elliz let out a long sigh. This matter of betrayal disturbed her concentration, especially when the threat from the hero was still looming. However, she had no choice but to continue her duty as leader.

------------------------------------

On the other hand, Hiro and his harems continued their journey towards Melavonia. They stopped at the town of Arelith to rest. After booking a room at the inn, Hiro decided to gather information about Saint Ellizabeth.

He called his harem to discuss. “I need information about Ellizabeth, can you please find me any information about her?”

Eleanor looked confused. "Why do we have to find out more? Isn't this just a normal vacation?"

Freya, with a flat face, looked at Hiro. "You're interested in her, huh? Want to add a wife?"

Hiro quickly clears up the misunderstanding. "That's not it! I just want to know more about her. She sounds powerful, and I just wanna know how strong."

Isolde made a suggestion, "How about we ask the guild? This town must have an adventurer's guild."

Everyone agreed to the suggestion and headed to the local adventurer's guild.

Once they entered, all eyes were on Hiro. As a famous Dragon Slayer, he was instantly recognized by the adventurers. An adventurer from a Rank A party approached them. The party consisted of three people:

Garret, the party leader, an experienced swordsman.

Elen, A water element specialist mage.

Rurik, A ranger famous for his arrow accuracy.

Hiro greeted them kindly, "Long time no see, Garret! How are you?"

Garret smiled. "Hiro! It's been a long time. We're doing well. What brings you here?"

After a moment of small talk, Hiro immediately asked, “Do you know anything about Saint Ellizabeth Laynrad?”

Hearing that name, the atmosphere turned confused. Garret glanced at his two companions before answering. "Ellizabeth? She's not just an ordinary Saint. There are many rumors about her, Hiro. Which one do you want to hear first?"

Hiro nodded. “I wonder about her reputation?”

Elen smiled as she stirred her herbal tea. "Oh, her reputation? There are many. She's known as a smart and strategic leader. Everyone in the church admires her."

Hiro leaned in, intrigued. “What's her status in the church?”

Garret nodded, adding, "She's not just an ordinary Saint. Ellizabeth is a prodigy. Even the church considers her the best Saint ever. She leads the church's elite army, the Ordo Sanctis Exterminare. They are an unrivaled army."

Brigid, excited, interjected, "What about her new kingdom? Do you know anything about it?"

Rurik, who was sitting casually holding a mug of beer, replied, "It was built from the ruins of Nevalheim, which lost a great war. Ellizabeth led with an excellent strategy. Even when the kingdom of Ferewyn helped Nevalheim, she still won."

Garret beamed, hitting the table enthusiastically. "She's absolutely amazing! A great leader, strategic, and also... beautiful! That white hair, those red eyes..."

BONK!!

Elen hit Garret on the head with her wand, making everyone at the table laugh. “Control yourself, Garret! You sound like a pervert!”

Hiro smiled a little, but his mind remained focused. “Looks like she's not just an ordinary Saint after all....”

Freya, who was sitting next to Hiro, flatly looked at him. “Are you still sure this isn't about getting more wife?”

Hiro sighed, ignoring the comment, while Isolde just chuckled.

2 days of travel

Their carriage finally stopped in front of the gates of the new kingdom of Melavonia. Selene, who climbed onto the carriage, looked at the vast view of the kingdom. "We've arrived," she said with a satisfied tone.

Eleanor immediately looked out of the carriage window, her eyes shining with enthusiasm. "Finally! I'm going to meet Saint Ellizabeth!"

As they got off the carriage, the view of the magnificent though not fully completed kingdom of Melavonia was mesmerizing. The large buildings with unique designs left them in awe.

After renting a room at a local inn, they decided to explore the city. While walking, the delicious aroma of a café caught their attention. Brigid pressed her face against the window of the cafe, her eyes sparkling at the food on display. "I want to try everything!" she said excitedly.

Freya, could even smell the delicious aroma from outside. "It smells... so tempting," she murmured.

They finally enter the cafe and order their food. Hiro looks at the menu with curiosity. "Carbonara?" he murmured. "Isn't this the food from...?" He shook his head, trying to dismiss the thought.

Brigid, who was busy reading the menu, asked in a confused tone, "What's... ice cream?"

Hiro stared at the menu in surprise. "Ice cream? No way... Sweets in this world are usually just plain cream, and even that's expensive." However, the prices on the menu seemed reasonable.

They ordered a few dishes, and the food came quickly.

Brigid tasted the vanilla ice cream with chocolate sprinkles, her eyes immediately lit up. "This... this is so good! It's supposed to be royal food, but why is it so cheap? " Isolde

tried the pasta carbonara and was surprised by the taste. "This dish is amazing... How can they make it like this?"

Hiro, curious, called out to the waiter. "How can you make ice cream so fast?"

The waiter smiled. "We keep it in the freezer."

Hiro was stunned. "A freezer? There has never been such a thing in this world." He asked further, "Where did you get it?"

The waiter replied, "The freezer can be bought at the store, though it's a bit expensive."

"Who made it?" Hiro asked again.

The waiter smiled. "Saint Ellizabeth is the one who created it."

Eleanor, who heard that, was surprised. "Saint Ellizabeth... She's not only a great leader, but also an inventor? She must be a genius scientist!"

Hiro was getting more and more confused. "This is... strange. Is she also a reincarnator like me?" However, he decided not to think too much about it and continued enjoying his meal.

After enjoying the meal at the cafe, Hiro and his harems decided to visit the adventurer's guild in Melavonia. The guild's building amazed them from the first glance-it was as grand as a large mansion, far from the ordinary guild's modest appearance.

When they entered, a bustling atmosphere greeted them. Adventurers of various ranks passed by, some even wearing expensive equipment.

Suddenly, an adventurer with flashy armor and a powerful aura embraced Hiro from behind. "Yo, Dragon Slayer! What's up, buddy?" he exclaimed with a loud laugh.

Hiro was startled for a moment, but immediately recognized the man. "Kael! Long time no see!" Hiro returned the hug with a big smile.

Kael, the blond rank S adventurer nicknamed "the Flash" for the speed with which he attacked with his sword

Isolde, who was curious, approached. "Oh Kael, long time no see " Kael

laughed again. "You never change, Hiro. Always surrounded by beautiful women. So, what brings you to Melavonia?"

Before Hiro could answer, Isolde turned her attention to the crowd in the guild. "Why is this guild so crowded? I even see a lot of Rank S here."

Brigid, who was looking around the guild's interior, exclaimed in admiration, "This looks more like a nobleman's mansion than a guild or a tavern!"

Kael smiled broadly. "That's Saint Ellizabeth for you. She not only built the guild, but created a place worthy of adventurers of all ranks. She knows how to attract the world's attention."

Hiro paused, thinking about how Saint Ellizabeth's figure seemed to be getting beyond his expectations. "Ellizabeth... It's getting more and more interesting."

Brigid, with enthusiasm, asked Kael, "Where can I buy a cool weapon like this?"

Kael pointed to the right. "The weapon shop is next to the blacksmith. You won't miss it."

Brigid took off running, followed by a curious Freya. Hiro tried to stop them, "Wait a minute!" But they were already too far away.

Hiro, Isolde, and Kael finally decided to catch up. Kael just sighed. "Always in a hurry, huh?"

They arrived at a weapon shop called Ironclad Armory, which turned out to be attached to a blacksmith workshop. Surprisingly, the craftsmen here were dwarves.

Hiro thought, "Dwarves working in the kingdom? They're not usually interested"

Isolde nodded. "It must be because of the great opportunities and Ellizabeth's status. The dwarves must see this as a golden opportunity."

Brigid, meanwhile, was glued to the various weapons in the shop. Her eyes lit up when she saw a gleaming white shield. "How cool!" she exclaimed.

Selene was also interested in some daggers that looked sleek and sharp, suitable for her.

Brigid asked the dwarven shopkeeper, "How much is this shield? Can I buy it?"

Isolde warned, "It must be expensive. The material may not even be as good as it looks."

The dwarf shopkeeper was enraged at the comment. "How dare you belittle our masterpiece! It's covered in mithril, the best material ever!"

Isolde sighed, feeling guilty. "Sorry, I didn't mean that." Finally, she agreed to buy the shield for Brigid.

Hiro, meanwhile, found no suitable weapon for her. "Nothing appeals to me," he muttered.

After they were done, the group decided to walk around the city again. However, Hiro suddenly felt something strange underground.

"I'm forgetting something. You guys go first, I'll catch up," he said.

Hiro headed towards the underground sewers, moving carefully. Using earth magic, he detected three guards and one person being held captive. Around him, there were four corpses.

He stopped to listen to their conversation.

The detained person was shouting, "You people, Melavonia! Kingdom of Laynrad! We will destroy you!"

One of the guards kicked him roughly. "Shut up, rebel! You will die here!"

As the guard raised his sword for the kill, Hiro moved quickly, slashing the guard. The other two guards attacked, but Hiro easily defeated them.

He releases the restrained person and asks, "What's going on here?"

The man, with a face full of wounds, explained, "We are the surviving residents of Nevalheim. They want to kill us all! They call us rebels and want to completely erase Nevalheim's history!"

Hiro paused, hearing the man's complaints that sounded so desperate.

"We are not demons! We don't know anything about the prince conspiring with demons during the war. Please, believe us!"

After helping the detained man, Hiro led him out of the sewer. He felt sad to see four lives lost in that place. Hiro used healing magic on the man, who immediately thanked him.

“You must escape before the guards know you,” Hiro said, giving the man a cloak to disguise himself.

The man bowed gratefully. "Thank you very much. I'll remember this." He left, disappearing into the darkness.

Hiro returned to the group, where his harems were waiting with impatient expressions.

“What took you so long?” asked Eleanor in a protesting tone.

Hiro just sighed, choosing not to tell her what happened.

Night at the Inn

In the inn room, Hiro sat on his bed, pondering. "What exactly happened to Ellizabeth?" he thought. There were too many mysteries behind the figure of Saint Ellizabeth that everyone adored.

The next day, they went to the guild and found a large crowd. Hiro looked around, confused “What's going on?” he asked.

Kael appeared behind them. "Ah, you guys are here. It's because the inauguration will be held in five days."

Isolde frowned. “That explains why everyone seems so busy.”

Eleanor looked very excited. “I can't wait to see Saint Ellizabeth in person!”

Hiro, despite his curiosity, tried to think of ways to pass the time. “Maybe we can take an adventure mission or relax while waiting for the inauguration.”

Freya tilted her head. “But why don't we see Saint Ellizabeth everywhere?”

Kael sighed. "It's obvious. Saint Ellizabeth must be busy preparing for this big event. Many nobles will be attending. Reportedly, she will make her kingdom a center of trade and innovation. No wonder so many alchemists and wizards are coming here."

Hiro thought about that deeply. If true, Ellizabeth was not only a saint, but also a visionary leader. But what was she really up to?

The buzz in the guild continued, bringing with it a growing sense of anticipation ahead of Saint Ellizabeth's grand inauguration.

Inauguration day

Inauguration day arrived. The city of Melavonia was filled with cheers and crowds. Citizens from all walks of life gathered in the main square, where a large stage was decorated with gold and jewels, the symbol of Saint Ellizabeth's greatness.

Eleanor jumped up and down with excitement, her eyes sparkling as she saw the church guards and black uniform royal troops marching in neat rows, swords raised in the air. Trumpets sounded, signaling the arrival of the saint.

Ellizabeth stepped out gracefully, her gentle smile sweeping through the crowd, making many kneel in admiration.

"Today, we not only welcome a new era, but also a promise. A promise that this kingdom will be a place where justice, innovation, and peace come together. Melavonia is not just a kingdom, but a home for all who seek hope. Together, we will write a history that will never fade." Elliz's speech

was cheered, but suddenly a shout broke the atmosphere.

"Ellizabeth is the devil! She wants to erase the history of Nevalheim!" A man ran from the crowd, followed by several others. They carried makeshift weapons, trying to approach the stage. The guards immediately moved, drawing their swords to protect the saint.

Chaos ensued. The rebels shouted about the lies the church was spreading, but the citizens perceived them as a threat. Hiro, standing amongst the crowd with his harems, pulls Eleanor who continues to stare at Elliz.

"Let's get out of here!" Hiro pulled her into a narrow alley, followed by the others.

Behind the alley, Eleanor struggled. "Why are you pulling me?! I want to see Saint Ellizabeth!"

"Keep quiet," Hiro replied firmly. "We have other things to do."

Hiro led them after one of the fleeing rebels. The man was cornered at a dead end, pursued by several guards. Without hesitation, Hiro charged the guards, attack them down quickly.

"What are you doing, Hiro?!" exclaimed Isolde. "You attacked the royal guards?!"

"Calm down," Hiro replied. "I know what I'm doing."

The rebel, initially wary, finally calmed down after Hiro mentioned that he had helped one of his comrades earlier.

"Do you have a hiding place?" asked Hiro.

"I do," the rebel replied. "Come with me, but don't try to betray us."

Later that night, they arrived at a cave in the forest on the eastern side of Melavonia. Inside, there were dozens of people, including children and women, who looked tired and hungry.

Hiro's harem was confused. "What is all this, Hiro?" asked Freya.

"It's the truth we need to know," Hiro replied shortly.

A large man approached them. "I am Magnus, the leader of this group. Who are you?"

Hiro introduces himself and explains that he wants to know what really happened.

The person Hiro previously saved appears, confirming their good intentions. Magnus begins to tell his story "We are the remnants of the people of Nevalheim. We don't know anything about the prince conspiring with the devil. We are just ordinary people who want to survive. But the church and the kingdom called us rebels and wanted to exterminate us all."

Eleanor shook her head. "No way! Saint Ellizabeth and the church have confirmed everything!"

Magnus gave her a sharp look. "And you just believe it? Don't you think that history can be manipulated?"

Hiro realized that there was more truth hidden behind Ellizabeth's gentle smile. However, looking at the sleeping children in their mother's arms, Hiro began to feel a dilemma.

"If I fight Ellizabeth, I will ruin many people's lives... but if I let her, am I allowing this injustice to continue?" he thought to himself.

To be continued...
