Damn, I recarneted As A Judge in Fantasy World

After a huge uproar, Justia had returned to her usual elegant appearance.

It was a far cry from the violent swinging of the warhammer. It felt like a cat that had thrown a lot of punches and then acted like it was nothing.

I calmly walked away as if nothing had happened, whether or not the short blonde guy who claimed to be her fiancé was lying around.

"How have you been?" I asked.

"Thanks to you, everything was fine once the Empire certified that there was no physical harm," she replied.

"Still, it must have been difficult," I said.

"It's okay. I came back safely, so I have to accept that."

Surprisingly, Justia seemed very calm, even though all kinds of rumors were complicating my thoughts.

'As expected, she is no ordinary women,' I thought.

Somehow, I felt like the armor suited her better than this fiancé of her.

Oh, now is not the time to be thinking about that.

What could possibly bring me from the Deliat Dominion to the Duchy of Crawford?

It's to express regret. So, I even brought me a nice(?) gift.

I subtly brought up the main point.

"By the way, it really is a beautiful country. It has wonderful natural scenery and wonderful buildings."

The Duchy of Crawford was heavily influenced by the Empire. It couldn't be helped since it was a country of collateral royal families in the first place.

Princess Justia and I are also distant relatives. It's just lip service, but I have to start like this.

That way, the person lending you money will feel less bad.

"Compared to the capital of the Empire, it was like a rural village. But the mountains and fields were beautiful, weren't they?"

"With the presence of Princess Justia, the people of this country must be truly happy."

"Ohhohoho! You are too kind," she laughed.

"So, can I ask you a favor?" I ventured.

"Of course. I already felt bad because I had not repaid my benefactor. Please speak freely."

"Then without hesitation… I would like to request a loan from the Duchy of Crawford."

I briefly explained the situation in the Deliat Autonomous Region. When she heard that I had been appointed governor, Justia's eyes sparkled.

"You're asking me to help you persuade my father."

"That's right."

"He is a bit of an odd person."

Before we even got to the main point, she got straight to the point. In fact, if I used my status and position, it wouldn't be difficult to meet the Duke of Crawford.

Just by visiting, I would be warmly welcomed. But borrowing money was a different matter.

The Duke of Crawford, Paley III, was known as a miser.

"It's not a difficult request. My father would do anything, if I said anything."

Justia is the only golden princess of the duchy. She was so precious to him that he wouldn't mind putting her in his eyes.

'Come to think of it, that Skyler guy really had a lot of courage to kidnap someone like this.'

No matter how much I racked my brain, he was someone I couldn't understand.

Why would he do something like that when he have everything? I don't think it's just for fun.

"Your Highness the Duke of Carriers?"

Princess Justia waved her hand in front of my eyes. It seems like my brief moment of absentmindedness lasted quite a while.

"Oh, yes. How far did we get?"

"Not far but I have a condition."

"A condition? Why a condition all of a sudden?"

"Do you have problem?"

"No, I do not."

Even if I have problem, it's not like I'm in position to say anything.

She smiled bashfully and nodded.

"The condition is that I go to the Deliat Autonomous Territory to play."

"There is no place there suitable for a princess to stay."

"Then you should make it. With the money I lent you."

"Oh! Is that the way?"

Of course, it's just a rough approximation.

She want to build a luxurious villa in a beggar country that is barely hanging on?

The most urgent matter is how to make a living for the people. What kind of nonsense is this?

Then what is the difference from the existing governors?

This is money that the Deliat Autonomous Region will have to repay at some point, so this is tantamount to extortion.

I shook my head with a serious expression. Experience amazing tales on m vl-em|p-yr

"First, the purpose of borrowing money is to help the people become self-sufficient. I cannot use that kind of money for personal gain."

"Ah…!"

Princess Justia lowered her head with a look of realization. Then, soon, she smiled even brighter.

"I overlooked that fact. I apologize for making such a reckless request."

"It's okay."

"I'll tell my father well. We'll arrange a meeting soon."

"Yes, then I'll take my leave…."

"Take care, Your Majesty."

I think she understood this well enough. I left the palace with a satisfied expression. But she was beyond imagination.

"So, that's why you came together?"

Hojaein looked at Princess Justia with blank eyes.

"Yes."

I couldn't believe that the Golden Leaf of the Duchy of Crawford had come to a place like this, even after seeing it in person.

What is there to see in the Deliat Autonomous Region, which is chaos itself?

I couldn't understand it, but Hojaein had it from the beginning.

"But I don't know where to take you."

"Let's stay at the Governor's Residence. I won't be going there much anyway."

"That's how it's always been up until now."

The Deliat Autonomy had so much to take care of from start to finish.

What Hojain did was rebuild the city, do flood control work, and eliminate the remnants of the group. In fact, the people's self-reliance was put on the back burner.

Because just what happened was enough to make me go crazy.

'So that's what I'm going to do, but there's a catch.'

Princess Justia's gaze was fixed on me.

Then, whenever our eyes met, her face turned bright red and she quickly turned her head away.

Anyone who looks at her can tell that she is a girl who is deeply in love. But I wasn't interested at all.
