"At that point, whoever wants to break it all will be Crossbell's enemy."

Hearing this, Li En, who was on guard in the air, sighed.

That's what I said.

Although I didn't expect it to pass through Kemparella's mouth, before I came back, I obviously hit Yuna casually and ran away, and now I don't know which tendon was wrong.

But what he said was true, and that was the biggest hurdle that Crossbell's "hero", the Secret Service Support Section, needed to face.

Not in the Empire, not in the Support Section itself, but in the broad masses of Crossbell whom they fought for.

To put it more simply, it is the people's heart.

The support section became "heroes" because they gained the hearts and minds of the people during that period.

However, the will of the people is not static, just as Dieta Courrois used the extreme means of hiring "Red Constellations" to attack the city and blame the two major countries to provoke the people's resistance and seek independence, and now Lufas is also gathering the people's hearts little by little and unifying the people's will.

And it's not Dita's disgraceful conspiracy, Lufas uses an upright scheme.

I'm going to build infrastructure, I'm going to cut taxes, I'm going to make commerce more prosperous, and the security, the bullying, and the further oppression that you're worried about won't happen, but you'll live a better life with the empire, with me.

This struck the greatest thirst of the people of Crossbell, and the special environment between the two great countries made them yearn for a stable life more than the people of other places.

Nowadays, the empire has you covered. I'll give you what you want, and I'll give you what you don't dare to think.

What's more important is not just talking, but actually doing it.

The losses caused by Calvard's withdrawal and blockade were made up for by the Empire.

How many tourists you are missing, how many tourists I make up.

Calvard doesn't do business with you, my empire does, and does more - Erebonia, which is constantly expanding outward, is full of business opportunities, and there is no shortage of orders at all.

Slowly, you will realize. It used to be two mountains pressing on its head, but now there is only one. This one is also pressing, but turning you into a part of the mountain - the original Crossbell was jointly administered by the two countries, and the tax had to be paid in two parts. After the occupation of the empire, the share of the republic did not have to be paid, and now there is a second tax cut, which is the same as the imperial capital, which is the lightest taxed place.

Both the face and the lining are enough. No matter how die-hard anti-imperialist people are, they need to admit that this is a real benefit.

People's hearts are uplifted.

It is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift.

Those who are accustomed to living a good life will suddenly return to the dust, back to the days of double taxes and oppression by two mountains—no, maybe then the empire will block a wave of Crossbell, and if Calvard does not fill that deficit like the empire, life will be even more difficult than the original autonomous state period.

Just ask, how many people can accept such an ending.

How many people are willing to give up the good days in front of them for the sake of so-called freedom and independence?

When the time comes, whoever it is, will be on the opposite side of the people - even if they are the heroes of the past, the Secret Service Support Section.

"O girl who inherited the will of the support department, let me tell you one more truth - freedom and independence cannot be eaten.

I'm looking forward to that day. Cross Bell, who is fighting for it, unites with the people of his hometown and the people who want to protect the 'hero' to stand on the opposite side of the 'hero', denounce the 'hero' and oppose the 'hero', that scene must be very beautiful. It won't be a few years before it happens, and the more you think about it, the more you look forward to it, what will their expressions be like at that time? What do you say—the son of the fighting god. ”

Keparella became more and more amused, while Randy, one of the "heroes" he referred to, had bloodshot eyes and a blue face.

Although he didn't speak, everyone could see that he was angry to the extreme, and he was helpless to the extreme.

"No, don't be discouraged, Randy-senpai. No matter what he says, I will definitely support you! Yuna's face is not good-looking, and she is still cheering for Randy.

Randy struggled to squeeze out a smile, "Thank you, girl, but—"

"But—what's the use of you alone?" Kempareira scoffed, "You can only represent yourself, not anyone else, not even your relatives and friends." What if they are all on the opposite side of you? This is called rebellion!

Of course, there are other options, such as giving up the original insistence and joining the empire, and if Governor Lufas, he should not object. ”

"Of course not, on the contrary, I will definitely greet it with the highest specifications. They are all very capable talents, and if they are willing to fight for the empire, they will definitely create greater brilliance. ”

Lufas gracefully opened his hands in a hug-like gesture.

In front of the Imperial Prince and so many important people, this could not be a lie. But Yuna prefers to hope that it is a lie, because the more the truth is told, the more it hurts - which means that the Support Section will have to give up what she has always insisted on, and give up what Yuna values most.

"How, how could it be? It's hard, isn't there a way at all? ”

"Yes, yes. For example, following the example of former President Dieta, he directed and acted on his own, constantly creating contradictions between the empire and Crossbell. As long as the people hadn't turned to the Empire, the situation I said wouldn't have happened - however, this is the most unlikely option for the Support Section, and it's also the one I'm personally looking forward to, so that all members of the Support Section can join the association and become executors, like the 'war ghosts'. ”

The "Devouring Snake" policy is that those who come are not afraid, but to become an executor needs to meet two requirements, in addition to being able to compete with high-level guerrillas, they also need to carry the "darkness", otherwise they can only become other combat units like the "Iron Fleet".

"Daohua, you're going too far." Rien finally couldn't help it and opened his mouth to interrupt.

The previous ones said that they would need to face sooner or later, so even if Ryan knew that he would hurt Yuna and Randy, he still endured and didn't speak, but the last one was no longer an injury, not a matter of giving up and persevering, but directly becoming the person he hated the most and wanted to defeat the most. If everything you have done before is still on the right path, once you take this step, you will completely fall into the evil path.

"Because I'm such a demonic alien. A 'clown' who finds pleasure in seeing other people's distress, Crossbell is simply the best stage for me, more interesting than Liber. ”

Kempareira was not ashamed, but proud, and even a red of excitement appeared on his face.

"Well, even if the Support Section were willing to follow the path of former President Dita, it would not be possible, because they have now been arrested by His Excellency the Governor."
