Restart in the World of Gender Reversal

85 – Parliament

“Me in Parliament?”

“Yes, I would like you to attend…”

It’s a long-awaited day off, but Alice comes to my room

There was a request from the Congress to come once.

Unexpectedly running state affairs with the Queen

A political group composed of a small number of marquess and many counts.

Rather than feeling like the National Assembly of Korea

It’s good to think of it as a political party.

To put it more simply, should we call it a fixed rate system?

The political party itself is playing the role of the National Assembly.

“Why? I don’t mean to just come over.”

“A law regarding male elves will be passed this time…”

Sure.

I don’t mean to ask a kid who’s only 7 years old if it’s a good bill.

And what kind of bill is it…

“It must have been the strengthening of punishment for transgressions against male elves.”

“If that’s the case, I should go.”

Somehow a good bill came out.

Nowadays?

Remember when it was just rolled?

They were treated unimaginably as treasures of the tribe?

I was in a bad mood.

My name is Gukseo.

Isn’t there a guy who is useless even if he hears a name like that?

Isn’t there a guy who wants to stab you to death with a knife?

In addition, there was a group that tried to kidnap and commit pleasure murder.

Looks like the council got a little sh*tline too.

“Isn’t half of it close to flattery?”

“That’s right… Flattery who made excuses and justifications to impress me and Yuk.”

Alice smiled bitterly.

Generally speaking, the parliament in the monarchy

It may be a group that keeps the king in check, but the kingdom of Kritias is special.

Because it is a feudal country, it is a special country with strengthened centralization.

I feel that the parliament is not just a simple legislative and administrative department.

“When can I go?”

“I sent someone earlier, but it’s today.”

“Of course…On a day off…”

“I’m sorry. I’m coming with you, so would you like to go?”

“Why is Alice sorry?”

This time I smiled bitterly.

She is a very kind and thoughtful queen.

It’s always like this.

***

I wondered where the parliament was.

It was right in front of my nose.

It was right next to Sieghart’s Mansion in the Royal Capital.

“By the way… Why is it right next to government offices?

Do you have a mansion?”

“That’s… Ask her the next time you see her grandmother.”

It looks like a pair of shoes built by an old woman I’ve never seen before.

No matter what, you should do it in moderation.

Do you think it makes sense to build a mansion the size of Central Park in the middle of the capital?

Because of our mansion, if you look at the royal capital through satellite photos,

A center looks green with the trees in the mansion’s garden.

“The Congress is bigger than I thought. Are all the members’ rooms available?”

“Everyone has their own office, and there’s also an aide’s waiting room.”

Hmm…

Looking at it this way, it seems that there is not much difference between the National Assembly of the Republic of Korea.

Well, the inside of the Capitol that I personally saw is only one Congress.

“This is Parliament.”

“Oh…”

It was a type of parliament used in ancient republican countries such as Athens or Goryeo.

A round-shaped room with a staircase-shaped seating area.

“Can I take a picture?”

“Hmm.. It won’t work. Photos are uploaded once in a while.”

I ran to the center, clattering footsteps.

If you take a picture with a bad angle and upload it to the community

Concept writing is one thing.

However, this stocky body loses its balance just by running.

In the end, I foolishly tripped over something and fell.

The sound of metal clatter roared through the council chambers.

“Ouch…”

“Are you okay? Really… Please don’t run around.”

Alice lifted me up from a fall

I took out a handkerchief and pressed the wound.

Looking at it now, blood was flowing.

“What can I do if a boy gets beaten up like this?”

“Ugh.. Ouch..!”

Tears are coming out for no reason.

I knew I would fall for myself after fooling around.

But, unfortunately, I never thought I would trip over something and fall.

Isn’t it too unfair?

After properly wiping off her blood, Alice cast a recovery spell on me.

A green light dwelled on me, and her whole body began to glow.

And, when Alice stopped her healing magic, her wounds were no longer left.

***

“Ugh! These people! Didn’t I tell you clearly! You shouldn’t do this!”

“No, who the hell came up with this? Don’t you get it?”

“No matter how much it is, shouldn’t it be moderate?”

I came here because I heard they were enacting a law regarding male elves.

It is said that it will proceed only after the relevant agenda is resolved.

As far as I’ve heard, the construction company for the road expansion project was decided, but it seems that the company raised a problem opinion.

It is 100% confidential, so you can freely express your opinion, but it seems difficult because there is no sense of responsibility.

“Your Majesty and His Highness are here. What kind of a fool is this!? Get your senses.”

“Eh… Tsk tsk tsk…”

I have seen a lot of people who click their tongues and wrinkle their faces on the news.

Did you say he was the head of a divided faction within the council?

The Marquis of Astacia disappeared into the dew of the execution

Looks like the head of a newly born faction.

“This agenda will be discarded. The next time you propose an agenda,

I hope you will propose with a sense of responsibility.”

The chairman took the agenda and shoved it into the trash can.

It seems that he himself is very angry.

Then, the next agenda item was proposed.

“It is an agenda to strengthen the punishment for transgressions against male elves.”

“Isn’t this something to ask for?”

“That’s right, but there’s something I’d like to ask of His Highness Yuk, who is visiting today.”

I was taken aback when an arrow suddenly flew at me.

What are you trying to ask?

I swallowed with a grunt.

“Yes, what is it?”

“Your Highness has personally felt a lot of danger lately, right?”

“Well, for now, isn’t it?”

“At that time, from the perspective of the victim, do you think the perpetrators were properly punished?”

Um.

Actually, the punishment I got was slapping my cheek.

There is none other than the eldest daughter of Count Quarkshell.

The child I tried to stab with a knife has disappeared

Those who tried to kidnap them were killed by their mother and Alice themselves.

“Um… I don’t know. Many of the people involved with me are already dead.”

“Then, let me change the question. Do you think death is a worthy punishment for those who tried to harm Your Highness?”

This is not what I meant when I assumed a normal person.

It seems that he wants an answer from the perspective of a male elf, Gukseo.

Trying to harm the State Book is, of course, the death penalty.

I nodded quietly.

“Likewise, Your Highness thinks death is right.

From noble mtl dot com

Putting elven men at risk is more than a loss to the nation.

Of course, it is a big problem for those of us who are rooted in the elven nation.

It’s time to punish them accordingly.

From noble mtl dot com

Please think carefully and vote for and against.”

After the Chairman’s speech,

The lawmakers went out one by one

The voting has begun.

“We need a 90% or greater vote to pass a bill like this.”

“Aha…”

What I just did. To other factions who plan to express their disapproval

Is this like a warning?

From noble mtl dot com

Personally, I hope this bill passes.

After everyone voted, the counting began.

Because there were only 200 people in total

The counting ended in an instant.

The result has been declared.

“Out of a total of 200 people, 195 voted in favor, 3 voted against, and 2 abstained, and this bill was passed.”

The lawmakers clapped as one.

For some reason, some people were looking at me with a sinister expression, but

Well, the results were good.

“Mr. Edna!”

Edna-san, who was wearing a maid uniform in the council, caught my eye and approached me.

Then, she bowed her head at me and greeted me.

“Edna-san, why are you wearing a maid uniform in the council?”

“As a maid serving Her Highness, this is natural.”

“May I allow you?”

“…….”

Mr. Edna looked at Alice.

Then this time he looked at me

She nodded slightly.

Originally, the maid must always wear the royal family’s maid outfit even outside.

Looks like there are rules.

Well, it’s definitely efficient

It’s a good way to show status.

“Then, I will wear plain clothes when I go out from now on.”

“Edna is pretty, so plain clothes would suit her well.”

With slightly light blue hair

Blue eyes.

Wouldn’t it be really pretty if you put on a sky blue dress?

Just imagining it is fun.

“If you have nowhere else to go, come with us.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

It’s a little hard, but it’s okay.

***

“But Alice, why are you holding my hand from earlier?”

“It’s a big deal if you fall again. Hold on.”

I was just a little excited

It’s not like I always fall down.

I don’t hate holding hands.

Come to think of it, Lara was always holding my hand.

I thought it was meant to be restrained because I didn’t know where the reason would turn.

“I’ll go see Lara.”

“Please tell me that I will see you later.”

“Yes”

Alice smiled bitterly

I was quietly watching as I walked away.

…

She got a feeling from Alice that she wanted to be with me.

What can I say…

I turned around and ran to Alice.

Let’s go to Lara later.

“Huh? Can I not go to Lara?”

“I just want to play Alice now.”

A smile appeared on Alice’s face.

For some reason, I felt a little uneasy

It disappeared like a wind blowing across the plain.
