< 	No one seemed to have objections. Still, every one of them would have said something along the lines of ‘Ainz-sama’s decisions are always correct’. Even if they had any dissenting opinions, it wasn’t likely that they would give voice to those opinions. In any case, it was better to confirm than not.

< 	“First on the docket, for what purpose did that buffoon undertake his actions? Was someone manipulating him as part of their ploy? That is certainly possible. Depending on the answer to those questions, we may have to revise our plans against the Kingdom. For that we’d only need to know what Ainz-sama’s thoughts are on the matter, it would be a waste of my lord’s time if we had to trouble you to deal with this yourself.”

For that it would be nice to know what Ainz-sama’s thoughts are on the matter, so I proposed that we ask for your presence.”

< 	The Sugar and Whip strategy (this term was popularized after it was coined by Ainz) to prepare the Kingdom for a takeover was in essence a plan to destabilize the Kingdom from the inside to the point where a portion of the Kingdom’s citizens would actively hope for peaceful foreign intervention by the Sorcerous Kingdom.

< 	He was meant to start a revolution. In conjunction with the internal conflicts initiated by their grain shortage, the Kingdom would then be forced to request aid from the Sorcerous Kingdom. Those weren’t the only methods through which the desired effect could be accomplished, they just had to create a reason for the Sorcerous Kingdom to intervene in the Kingdom’s affairs.

But...the possibility that he could have been charmed, brain-washed, or controlled in any other way is certainly not none… the one thing we could be sure of is that he had committed the crime.

< 	“No, wait a second, Albedo. We were only considering the facts under the assumption that our opponent was a genius, but Ainz-sama, in addition to our own considerations, had considered the possibility that they were a rash idiot too. There’s always the possibility that that could be the case, is there not? No, isn’t that explanation the most plausible?”

< 	“We had considered that during the planning phase, but ultimately chose to abandon that idea. It would have been fine had we drawn in outstanding noblemen, but they’re not exactly known for their intellect, are they? With that in mind, the more people we drew into the fold, the more likely it was for an unexpected leak in intel to occur. That was why we had decided to focus on an individual and have them form and manage a new faction.”

< 	“It wasn’t as though we couldn’t. In fact, we had recruited someone like that already...but spoiled brats are just much easier to coerce. We had considered the fact that we would want to spare the noblemen who were at least somewhat capable, which was why we chose the expendable portion of the nobility. Don’t you believe that it’s necessary for us to clear out the moronic few so that the country could become one worthy of being ruled over by Ainz-sama? That was why we formed a faction that was filled with people that were incompetent in various forms. As a metaphor, think of it as preparing to throw the trash out so you’d place the trash inside of the bin first. Of course, we had received intel on the talented people of the Kingdom, but we wanted to also collect intel of our own directly from the source.”
