Shota’s Isekai NTR Adventure

Chapter 839 Movement in the dark



The reason for the protest was that the people were unhappy with the recent changes that we had implemented.

During this time, we had implemented agricultural changes by having the citizens change what they were to grow. Sᴇaʀch* Thᴇ ɴøvᴇlFɪre.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

We handed out all the new seeds and had them change after the last harvest.

So currently, there were many empty fields in this country which was why people were worried.

It had been over a month since the forceful changes that Noah had put in place and most of the fields were empty…Well, they weren’t completely empty since there were still sprouts that came out of the soil.

It was just that it took too long compared to the usual crops that the citizens grew that they became anxious.

They didn’t want to switch to these new crops in the first place, but they were forced to swap to the new crops because of the royal decree. As such, the only thing that they could do now was gather to protest this royal decree.

This was a matter of their livelihoods, so these people were ready to fight for it.

Or rather that’s what it seemed on the surface, but it wasn’t as if the citizens would rise up that easily.

Not to mention, the prime minister had done quite a bit to make sure that people would be placated during this time.

There were supplies of grains that were still being sent to the various regions, though the grains were a bit less compared to usual since there were less lands growing grains now. At the same time, the new lands hadn’t finished development yet, so they weren’t able to grow new grains to supply the kingdom.

That was why it would take some time for the kingdom to adjust.

But to make up for that, the prime minister had given each citizen a subsidy so that they wouldn’t be aggrieved during this time.

He had made sure to compensate them fairly for their losses during this time, which was a large blow to the treasury.

So why would these people protest?

There was only one reason for that.

There was someone who was moving behind the scenes that were orchestrating these protests, which was why the two of us were surprised.

We had already thought of this ahead of time, so we had made our moves to counter anything that could have happened.

By all right, those that could have orchestrated such a protest should have already been placated.

So when it happened, we were naturally surprised by this.

“Who is it?” I asked the prime minister.

The prime minister revealed a heavy look before shaking his head and saying, “I don’t know right now. This is something that’s being investigated, so we’ll find out soon.”

I looked at him with a strange look when I heard this.

For the first time, I could see that the prime minister had really been caught off guard, which was why he didn’t know what to do. This was strange for me who had only seen the confident side of him that had always planned out everything.

So for him to actually be at a loss like right now…

After a moment of silence, I just gave a simple nod without saying anything.

The two of us waited there in silence, but I could see that there was a look of anger that was in the prime minister’s eyes. The way that the flames of rage flickered in his eyes, it was clear that he had lost himself in his rage this time.

I had gotten a bit better at reading him after becoming an in law, so I knew that he wanted to rip to pieces the people who were responsible for tarnishing his perfect reputation.

This was the one and only time that he had failed, so he wanted to erase this failure with his own hands.

In the end, it was Haley who came into the study with a folder in her hand.

The moment that the prime minister saw her come in, he immediately said in a fierce voice, “Who is it?”

If I hadn’t reacted in time and held him back, he might have even pounced at Haley just to take the folder from her.

I wasn’t worried that he would actually do anything to her, but I didn’t want to see her being jumped at by another man.

The prime minister realized his mistake, so he quickly gave a cough to calm him down.

After calming down, he said, “It was my mistake. Please tell me who it is that funded this protest.”

Haley raised a brow to look at the prime minister since this was also her first time seeing him like this. But she just gave a nod and opened the folder to read, “The Yumen Company and the Tarda Company.”

The prime minister immediately knitted his brows the moment that he heard this.

He was silent for a bit before turning to look at Haley with that same frown on his face to say, “Are you certain of this? I’ve already given them more than enough benefits that they shouldn’t have done this.”

Haley just shook her head and said with a bitter smile, “It seems like you’ve underestimated how greedy they are. Once they smell blood in the water, they are like hungry sharks.”

The prime minister knitted his brows even more when he heard this.

After a long silence, he said, “Let me handle this. I’ll make sure that they rue the day that they chose to betray me.”

Seeing this, I had no doubt that the prime minister would be able to take care of this without a problem, but there was something else that I had to say.

“Why do you think that it’s just them?”

The prime minister was surprised to hear this before knitting his brows again.

It didn’t take long for him to realize his mistake.

He took a minute to reflect before saying, “I’ll keep investigating and come back with a plan tomorrow.”

I gave a simple nod in response.

As long as the prime minister didn’t lose himself in a spiral, I had no doubts in his abilities.
