19 Re:Royal Election

{Subaru Pov}

Emilia: "Subaru, how are you here?" Asked Emilia puzzled.

I dropped the broken spears in my hands.

I moved a little closer to Emilia and knelt like a gentleman.

Subaru: "Sorry Emilia-Sama, the daily training got a little out of control."

Some people looked at Crusch for the veracity of my words.

When she saw this, she only nodded, leaving more than one surprised.

Subaru: "Should I go home?" I asked Emilia.

Roswaal who was next to him smiled at this.

Roswaal: "Well, I think you arrive at the right time ..."

Miklotov: "Who is this young man?"

Subaru: "I am the Knight prospect for Emilia-Sama. My name is Natsuki Subaru. Natsuki is my last name." (A / N: Are you coming from Eashen?)

Roswaal: "He does not understand the laws of our world very well, but he is not mistaken, he is a prospect to be Emilia-Sama's knight."

Roswaal approached me and touched my shoulder, approached my ear, and whispered: "I'll leave the rest to you."

Subaru: "I understand, circus clown."

He took the comment with humor and went to line up with the other marquis.

I stood behind Emilia on behalf of her knight and no one seemed to bother her much.

Mainly because it was Emilia's knight and not someone else's 'Important' which bothered me a bit. And it is normal when you come from a world where discrimination is abhorred.

Although the ones who did seem to want to explode were the royal knights who were upset that someone who was not one or even recognized as a 'Prospect'.

Marcos: "Good, I continue. Finally, we have Emilia-Sama and her knight Subaru Natsuki."

Emilia hesitated for a few seconds but managed to say what she wanted.

Emilia: "I only have one wish: That everyone is equal. I want to create a nation where everyone is equal." Emilia bowed respectfully.

There was silence in the room.

Noble: "This is a sham! I let it pass because of the urgency of the situation, but it is absurd to prolong this!"

Sage: "It is true. The Astrea family offers a Rat to rule us, and Marquis Mathers supports a demi-demon. Ridiculous!"

I stared at the sage who said that.

He didn't seem to flinch from my penetrating gaze and I wouldn't care about the truth but ... If I want the best possible future it's better to defend Emilia ...

Roswaal: "It's not nice to call a half-elf a demi-demon."

Sage: "That silver-haired demi-demon looks like the Witch of Envy as she's been described for generations. Don't you see how disgusting it is to allow her to stand before the throne? Dirty woman."

I used my memory to remember each monologue given by the candidates.

Subaru: "I think you are looking at this in a too superficial way ... Are you analyzing this for a mere appearance? What kind of sage are you ... Sages have been portrayed as knowledgeable people on every subject about the world and people whose intelligence is only surpassed by their neatness. Only the nickname of 'Sage' is denigrated with such absurd statements ... What do you see in them better than Emilia-Sama? "

They all fell silent.

Subaru: "Let's start with the first candidate: Priscilla, an arrogant, proud, and vain person who believes that the world was created for her own benefit ... Do you think that a person like her deserves to be even a citizen of Lugunica? Is it even possible for You to consider her for such a valuable position as this? As Mr. Noble put it, it doesn't matter if the gem recognizes it. The mere fact that it is considered should make you wonder if the sages really aren't senile. "

Although Priscilla seemed to want to refute and yell at my face, I kept talking.

Subaru: "Second candidate, Anastasia ... Do I even have something to add? It is more than clear that she is Greedy and opportunistic ... If you are really scared of Witches then literally here is the Witch of Greed."

She seemed to understand something else. (N / A: Here Subaru doesn't know that she is accompanied by Echidna's spirit but she now thinks that she does.)

Subaru: "As for Crusch, I don't have much to say ... She is a good candidate even though sometimes maybe an emotionless machine. And well I suppose I shouldn't say anything about Felt ... You can already see that is in no way suitable for this position. " (N / A: And you say that? you pretend to be friends with everyone just to live longer xD.)

Neither Crusch nor Felt reproached my words ...

Emilia: "Subaru..."

Subaru: "Emilia-Sama really cares about the people of this world, of this town, I firmly trust that they will make the right decision at the time. Regarding the physical appearance, you wish your wife had such fine qualities and beautiful like Emilia-Sama. "

Sage: "Insolent!"

He was the only wise man who recriminated. The other sages agreed with what I said except for Emilia's appearance.

Some supported it, others didn't even try.

Julius stepped forward in the face of all the commotion.

Julius: "Excuse the interruption, but there is something I must ask you ... if you really do declare yourself her knight?"

Subaru: "Correct."

Julius: "Do you say it in front of us?"

They all Knight made a special formation by stomping to the ground and raising their swords.

Subaru: "What a nice show ..."

Julius: "Of course. We always know our position to make known the dignity of the empire. Are you ready to be a part of this?"

I used my memories to make this verbal battle as short as possible to withdraw.

*Sigh*

Subaru: "I think you have not realized it but the person to whom you pledged loyalty said and I quote: Time is money. With this, you do show me and everyone present that the dignity of knights is null. since not even their representative respects their leader. "

He could not refute it, it is true that the person he serves said that time is money and that because of him this has taken a long time.

Anastasia observed with a little annoyance the behavior of Julius, Emilia also observed my behavior in a bad way but only a bit.

Although thanks to what I said raised suspicions in the most intelligent of the whole room since I was not here when Anastasia said that.

I went back to the line and I went back to Emilia's side.

I got a penetrating look from Anastasia.

As for Emilia ... She didn't look happy, but she didn't seem upset either, at least she didn't end up taking me out of the room.

...

They gave us a break to continue later so I went with Felix who wanted to talk to me, we arrived at the resting place of the knights which looked like some barracks or something similar.

While I was there Felix asked me normal questions like if I was Emilia's Knight, why not accompany her from the beginning, how I suddenly arrive at the room, and so on.

After a while of questions and answers, someone entered the resting place.

of course, this was none other than Julius.
