Charles had never been loyal to Julius Axtel VI!
He was a transmigrator, playing what loyal subject games?
Charles had also never cared about the laws of the Empire.
Indeed, according to Earth's laws, many of Fars's laws were quite "illegal".
As for the various crimes committed by Zimmerman, Charles had studied them too, since he had once helped Menilman burn documents. According to Earth's morality, apart from dueling and killing, there were no particularly heinous crimes.
So his feelings towards Zimmerman were complicated, slightly intrigued, and a bit envious.
Charles hesitated for a moment, gently touching the "Murmur of Fate" on his hand. This Golden Serpent Ring suddenly gave a very clear directive to burn this top secret document.
Charles jumped in surprise, for the "Murmur of Fate" had almost never given such clear instructions before, and it also clearly told him that Zimmerman had escaped, rather than simply "disappeared".
This matter...
