Several days of sailing gave Todd a rare and peaceful vacation.

　　 Every day, fishing~lightnovelpub.net~ chatting with people and managing the soul space became the only thing he could do during the day.

At night, while holding the sleeping Rachel, listening to the soft waves outside the ship, feeling the undulating vibration of the ship's hull, Todd always has an illusion at this time, as if this journey will never end, his The world will continue in this kind of comfort and peace forever.

　　 However, when the port of Twilight West appeared in Todd's vision, he suddenly understood that one day he would always have to face reality.

　　 Due to the previous special explanation, the king's return was carried out in a state of secrecy.

　　 Among the team that came to greet Todd, except for the guards in disguise, Huggins was the only one waiting on the plank road in the port, and the cabinet members did not know it.

　　 Seeing the brig slowly approaching the harbor, Huggins, limping on one leg, waved excitedly while jumping awkwardly on the spot.

　　 Looking at the umbrella flags fluttering in the wind over the port, Rachel sighed slightly: "We are here."

　　 With a lonely look on Todd's face, he said, "Yes, we're here."

"After getting off the ship, I must go back to the Alien Species Association first." Rachel adjusted his clothes and hair: "I'm going to find a Alien species who knows ancient Tairo, and translate all the transcripts of notes. In addition, I also want to arrange the internal affairs of the alien species."

　　 Todd nodded: "I also want to go back to the palace first, first understand the domestic situation, and see if there are any changes in the kingdom during the period of my absence."

　　 After the cargo ship docked, Todd watched Rachel leave the deck first, and then he put on his large cloak, walked off the crossboard, and came to the shore.

　　 Stepping on the solid stone bricks, Todd looked at the bustling scene in the harbor and couldn't help but secretly marvel.

　　 Hundreds of ships of various sizes and flags are anchored in the port.

　　 Merchants, captains, sailors, tourists, and workers of different skin colors, clothing, and languages ​​have blocked the huge Muxi Harbor.

　　 The huge pulley crane is running non-stop, boxes after boxes of goods are constantly coming and going, people's shouts, laughter, and quarrels are endless, making the whole port look full of vitality and vigor.

　　 Hudgens trot all the way to Todd's side, his voice looked a little out of shape because of his excitement: "Hi...you are back!"

　　 Todd lifted his hood, glanced at him with a smile, and whispered, "I'll talk about something back to the palace."

　　 Under the guidance of Hudgens, Todd came to the parking lot outside the port area, got in a humble carriage, and headed to the palace on the top of the hill.

　　 Along the way, Todd opened the curtains of the carriage and looked at everything along the way. The more he watched, the more surprised he was, and the more he watched, the more relieved.

　　 Compared with the time when I left, the current Twilight City has completely changed its appearance. Houses and decorations sprung up like bamboo shoots after a rain, and flower beds and tree shades adorn the whole city beautifully.

　　 Todd nodded and said with satisfaction: "The city looks much cleaner than before."

　　 Hudgens turned his head and said: "In the past, the center of the city was the most crowded, naturally noisy and crowded. Now, the population in the center of the city is greatly reduced, and naturally it looks much cleaner."

　　 Todd asked curiously: "Where is the person?"

　　 "The land price, rent, and cost of living in the city center are too high. People who have no money have moved to Xiacheng or outside the city. Those who are left are rich."

　　 Hearing what Harkins said, Todd frowned slightly, but in the end he said nothing.

　　 The carriage drove towards the palace. When passing the main square, a group of students from Muxi University stood on a wooden podium, saying something loudly to the passing pedestrians.

　　 Todd said to Huggins, "Put the carriage over there, I want to hear what they say."

　　 The latter parked the carriage not far from the podium in accordance with the king's order.

　　 "The whole world is sleeping in ignorance and narrowness! Only Twilight has the truth! We have the great mission of saving sentient beings and awakening the world!"

A tall student with a pigtail yelled to the people in the audience: "Look at the kingdoms in the parish! They still believe in the lies of God's salvation, and pin all their hopes in a mud puppet. On the body, let the church **** their flesh and blood!"

Another chubby student with freckles raised his arms and shouted: "Science has dispelled superstition and ignorance. There have never been gods and prophets in this world! Humans are the masters of the world! We are the helms of destiny! We must save this world deceived and deceived by the church! We must liberate the poor people living in the parish! We must war!"

　　 Todd sitting in the carriage, hearing this, asked Huggins in surprise, "War?"

　　 Harkins explained quietly: "There are two factions in Twilight City. One is the old cabinet led by Lord Emerson, and the other is the reformist formed by the Chamber of Commerce Alliance."

"Master Emerson advocated the use of diplomatic and religious methods to divide the major powers of the Father’s Diocese in order to achieve the goal of isolating the Papal State. The Chamber of Commerce Alliance requires the use of war to bring the Father’s Church forces in other kingdoms. Deported completely."

　　 Todd thought for a moment, and immediately grasped the point of the matter: "Maybe the Chamber of Commerce Alliance is not just trying to expel church power?"

Huggins nodded and said: "You guessed it right... With the rapid development of commerce in Twilight City, its related factories, plantations, workshops, breeding farms and other related facilities, even if they are operated and supplied at full speed, there is no way to satisfy them. Trade and consumption in the city. Therefore, the Business Alliance has asked the Cabinet more than once to solve the two problems of insufficient land supply and difficulty in recruiting personnel."

"So, when it was discovered that the cabinet was unable to solve these problems~lightnovelpub.net~ The Chamber of Commerce Alliance launched multiple branches under it, and contacted the student group of Muxi University, and launched the slogan of a declaration of war against God. Although the slogan was expelled I am ignorant and respect human nature, but in fact I want to start a war to seize land and population."

　　 Todd asked immediately, "How is the public opinion in the kingdom?"

"Emerson asked the cabinet members to explain to the people that the war will bring a series of harms, which will do more harm than good to Twilight, but with little effect. After all, the citizens of Twilight, whether they are businessmen, students or aliens, or more At least they have an indispensable grudge with the Church of the Heavenly Father, and the slogan of declaring war on God just met their hope."

　　 Before Todd could react, Huggins followed up and said, "Your Majesty, there is one more thing, I don't know if you still remember it?"

"whats the matter?"

　　 "When you formed a cabinet, there used to be such a rule. The prime minister of the cabinet is replaced by election every three years. When the new prime minister takes over the executive power from the king, he can reorganize or dissolve the original cabinet as needed."

　　 Todd was taken aback, and then said, "Yes, it is true."

　　 Hudgens sighed: "Next month will be the day of the democratic election of the cabinet prime minister. Lord Emerson and the candidate of the business alliance, Rutridge, will fight for the position of prime minister of the kingdom."
