I'm the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire!

Chapter 31 Epilogue

The guide had revealed the truth to me.

To that truth, I

You I thought you told me the after-sales service was complete.

Huh?

The guide sputtered in a confused tone.

This guy, even though he looks like a bad person hes actually really shy.

I didnt think he was moving in various ways for me behind the scenes.

You dont have to hide it. You manipulated things in ways I never noticed, right?

No, well I did.

If I was given the same treatment as Peter, then I wouldve gotten an STD by now.

He was really doing his best for me.

If that was the case, then was he also the reason why I was able to meet Kurt? It might just be a coincidence, but its more likely that he set things up to be that way.

Were all the good things that happened to me in the Razel house his doing?

You really are a good person.

Huh?

The guide was grasping his chest.

It looked like he wanted to say something, but I needed to convey my words first,

You dont need to be so embarrassed about it. You cut off the connection with the Razel house for me, right? That house doesnt seem to be in the best place now that its been demoted, so if I was affiliated with them, theres no doubt Id be going through some hard times right now. It mustve been tough, so thanks for everything.

stop it.

To the guide that seemed to be dying from embarrassment, I gave my thanks.

He really was a good person.

Youre also the one who cornered that good and virtuous Peetak house, right? I also hated that house. Righteous and virtuous people disgust me.

Wasnt he the one that threw that house into chaos? Im really grateful to him for getting rid of such an annoyance.

Y-y-youre wron-

I rubbed the bottom of my nose at the sight of the guide who was shaking while hiding his face.

For all this kindness that youve done for me, thank you.

The guide started shouting in embarrassment from my thanks,

aaaaaAHHHHHHHHHHH~~!!!!!

The guide disappeared in a cloud of mist.

While I still surprised by the sight, Brian started to move again,

Lord Liam, whats wrong?

to be so embarrassed that hed actually start screaming, I couldnt help but shake my head at the thought. Hes surprisingly innocent.

Its nothing. I just yeah, I feel better all of a sudden. Ill give up on the haircuts.

Brian was surprised, but he immediately went on to contact the government offices.

I guess I was overreacting a little to a hairstyle.

The thing is, after I begrudgingly acknowledged it, the hairstyle suddenly dropped in popularity and disappeared.

Were they just making fun of me?

Before my admission into elementary school.

There were many people visiting the territory trying to meet with me while I was still here.

Nias was one of them.

Lord Liam~ can you buy some battleships from me?

Looking at Nias in a dress, I lightly snorted at her.

Go home, you disappointing girl.

Cold! Lord Liams attitude towards me is cold!

Nias seemed to have gotten better after selling me a fortress-class, but now she was screaming as she was pulled away by my servants.

LORD LIAM, EVEN BUYING TWO HUNDRED SHIPS IS OKAAAAYYYYYY~~~!

It was a cry that could be used to confirm the Doppler effect.

Well, its her fault for not understanding my feelings.

I could just tell her, but itd be bothersome and Id feel like I lost if I did so.

In the first place, my position was the higher one of the two of us.

Hopefully she guesses right next time.

Amagi, bring in the next guest.

Yes, Master.

Amagi brought the next guest into the room.

It was the Third Weapons Factory representative, Eulisia.

Surprisingly, she was wearing quite the lascivious outfit.

My lord, long time no see.

After finishing my greetings with Eulisia, she sat down in a way that showed off the insides of her skirt, before taking a pose that emphasised her chest.

Im here today to introduce the new line of weapons the Third Weapons Factory is selling-

She started to explain the products, but I wasnt interested at all.

There wasnt any real difference in performance from the previous generation.

The design was great but the specs barely changed at all.

Despite that, the price was higher.

The cost to performance ratio was bad.

Looking at Eulisia who was doing her best to appeal to me, I couldnt help but think that she was a disappointing girl as well.

I dont feel like buying anything.

As I said that, Eulisia started to take off her coat.

Her already lascivious outfit now had more skin exposure to the point that it was almost underwear.

She sat down next to me and started pressing herself against me.

Unlike Nias, she really had a lot of sex-appeal.

Nias was also a beauty, but she didnt come anywhere close to Eulisias skills.

My lord, if you bought something, Id be really gratefu

I slapped her hand away, shaking her off my arm as I stood up.

The servants started grabbing her.

Wha-?! My lord?!

And to think I had such high expectations for you take her.

MY LOOOOOORRRRRDDDDDD~~~!!!

She was taken away and disappeared just like Nias.

The women from the weapon factories are no good.

Well, I guess its partially my fault for telling the factories to leave them in charge of sales since I find them interesting.

Amagi turned towards me,

This is the end of your morning appointments.

I have more in the afternoon?

Yes, Thomas was hoping to meet with you.

My Echigoya?

Liams mansion- one of its rooms.

Inside of the luxurious dressing room, the underwear-like outfit wearing Eulisia had an expression of her face that was distorted in frustration.

Ill never forgive him for pushing me to go this far.

Eulisia was a talented woman.

Many men have tried courting her in the past.

Among them there were even nobles.

However, she had rejected them all while working her hardest.

With a face like an actress, a body that any man would desire, and a great head on her shoulders, she did her best so that she could one day get into the good graces of a high-noble.

Even when she was assigned to a weapon factory, she was happy because this gave her many opportunities to meet with such nobles.

She polished herself and kept her purity all for the sake of catching the eye of a great aristocrat.

Her aim was to become a jewel desired by all.

She believed she had the qualities necessary to do so, and she wasnt wrong.

However, Liam didnt seem to have any interest in her at all.

At first she thought she was liked, and that Liam would be another stepping stone in her search for her ideal partner but she couldnt forgive this.

Ill turn this around and be the one to throw him away. He will cry and beg for my forgiveness as I laugh at his pathetic sight.

But Liam was a high-noble.

If she wanted to throw him away, itd be necessary to rise to a position that could be considered his equal.

But before all that, she swore in her heart that shed one day get her revenge on Liam.

If I remember correctly, hes going to be leaving for elementary school soon, right?

When Eulisia looked at herself in a mirror, she couldnt help but notice the cold smile plastered on her face.

After I had finished my lunch.

I was meeting with Thomas.

Lord Liam, its been quite difficult to meet with you recently.

Lately people have been gathering around me so it couldnt be helped.

I was quite troubled with how the majority of them were people trying to take advantage of me.

Like Thomas, they were also merchants, but I always held my own interests as the top priority, so I didnt even consider them unless what they proposed would bring me a profit.

The majority of the people I met were useless.

But the fact that so many people gather is proof in and of itself that people have high expectations for you, Lord Liam. Oh, but lets move on to the main subject.

What Thomas brought out were supplies for elementary school.

These are the items youll need for elementary school.

Cant I just buy these once I get there?

Lord Liam, once someone rises to a position of your status, itd become a problem if you used the same items as the general public. Please check the family crest weve imprinted on the items.

Although it was only an elementary school, provincial nobles could only commute there if they were from a house that was of baron-rank or higher.

But for court nobles, they could attend even if they were only from a knight family.

Therefore, the number of students enrolled there was extremely large.

It looks like I needed special tools different from the general students so they would know of my status.

How annoying.

Ive heard that the children of imperial nobles can attend classes that are recognised at both the military academy and the university.

There were general students at the military academy and the universities as well.

Since it would be troublesome for the nobles to lose to them, they received an education in those fields before they enrolled.

In other words, they educated nobles in advance so theyd have a head start.

Its just for fun anyways. Theres no need to worry.

It was just a place to give lessons before the serious education started.

Lord Liam, so its just for fun to you? If thats true, then have you already decided your plans for after you graduate from elementary school?

After I graduated, I had to go to either a university or a military academy recognised by the Empire.

Both were required and couldnt be refused.

It doesnt matter. Its the same either way.

Because youve already succeeded the house as Count, it looks like various problems might arise while youre forced to stay in the imperial capital after graduation.

Ill try to return to the territory as soon as possible.

In the Empire Im just another noble.

But in my own territory Im a king.

I can act as arrogantly as I want, while being given the royal treatment.

In order to return to such a situation, I need to finish my training quickly.

Moving on from that

Thomas thanked me while bowing down,

Id like to thank you for the tax reduction measures youve given to my company.

I helped out Thomas, who was falling on hard times because of his failed scam attempt on the Peetak house.

For a few years, I granted his company special tax-reductions.

I wanted him to be more secure.

Be careful in the future.

O-of course. Oh yes, do you have a mansion prepared in the imperial capital, Lord Liam?

A mansion in the imperial capital?

I was going to be studying abroad in the imperial capital as part of my training, but it looks like noble children usually prepare a residence to live in during that time.

I didnt really think it was necessary, but it looks like it wouldnt be appropriate for me to not have one.

Come to think of it, even my parents and grandparents had a mansion there.

Because the price of land in the imperial capita is expensive, its better to secure a good land for yourself sooner, rather than later.l

A dormitory system was used during elementary school.

The military academy was the same, but it looks like one was required for the university.

I was wondering if was possible to just rent an apartment, but was that really alright?

Its a bother. Im not even going to be using it that much anyways. Is there no other alternative?

If thats the case, then why dont you rent out a hotel there?

A hotel?

Umm even if you have a mansion in the capital, thered be no point if it was too far away from the university. Its something like that.

It looks like having a mansion was still required.

In that case, then bring me a list of the hotels I can rent out. Ill have the mansion built while Im still attending elementary school.

As you command.

It was a house I didnt intend to use that much anyways.

So this should be enough.

Should I just find some cheap land have it built there?

Brian was inside the mansion at his rooms veranda, taking care of his bonsai trees.

He was humming a song.

Another great day, today.

Before Liam was born, he never wouldve expected such a day to come.

Such a Liam was almost at the age to enroll into elementary school.

Im already looking forward to the day Lord Liam returns.

As he lined up the bonsai trees he took care of for a hobby, the head maid entered his view as she approached him from the garden.

Oh, did you need something from me?

The head maid was holding a parasol.

Im just out for a stroll. Im just taking a walk while looking around the house grounds.

You sure are passionate about your work.

Brian invited the head maid to the veranda, thinking itd be nice to have a chat with her.

Tea was prepared, and they talked for a long time.

Brian, hows your family doing?

My grandchild and their partner will be returning here soon.

I see. Its nice to hear that theyre coming back.

Brians grandchild had already brought him great-grandchildren.

But his son and his wife werent around anymore.

Yes, and this is all thanks to Lord Liam.

Once you get to our age, the things we can do are really limited. Our ingrained habits dont disappear, and personally, I find myself looking for work even on holidays.

Thats because youre a workaholic.

As Brian said so while laughing, the head maid agreed while saying Thats true.

Brian, you sure did find a good master to serve. How were you able to endure it for such a long time?

I didnt have to endure anything at all. I continued to serve because I was that grateful to Lord Alistair.

I wouldve liked it if you had come to work in the palace instead. If you did, I wouldve made sure that you wouldve received a good position.

There was a time long ago when the head maid had asked him to work in the palace instead.

But looking at things now, he thought it was a good thing that he refused.

Even so, Im happy as I am right now.

You really have no greed at all, do you? Im a little jealous.

A place where Liams mansion was visible.

It was there that the guide had fallen down.

After revealing everything to Liam, contrary to what he expected, he was exposed to even more fatal emotions of gratefulness.

He could feel himself fading away, and couldnt move properly.

There was no way that even in his wildest dreams that hed actually be thanked after revealing the truth.

Just what the hell is that guy?! The guide was seriously scared of Liam.

While he was taking bitter breathes,

Y-you bastard Liam I will definitely have my revenge I will fulfill this grudge of mine

But hed have to rest for a while first before he could do any of that.

He also needed to collect negative emotions.

To defeat Liam, he had to collect as many as possible.

Thats it. The imperial capital of the Empire. Theres bound to be an endless flood of negative emotions there. If its there, Ill definitely be able to recover.

Thinking about his next plans against Liam the guide stood up and started to walk away.

Behind him was a dog.

The shape of it was gradually becoming clearer, but the guide was too weak and didnt notice it following behind him.

Liam the next time we meet will be your last.

The guide once again swore revenge on Liam.
