Oh, they are not above base things like bribery. Trust me. It is only democratic in the loosest sense of the word.
[Granted, it wasn't like William came from any sort of democratic land. Sure, Parliament could claim to be whatever it wanted, but the system was corrupt, one ruled by the upper class William was part of. It was a fact of life, simple as that. Honestly, in their own way, Demons were pretty honest about it. Which was a strange realization to make after all this time.
When Kazuya mentioned the word "reincarnation," William flinched. His true connection to Solomon was something he chose not to mention here, because really, why should he? Let people think he was a mere descendant. No one need think him mad. And he could be himself for once and not have the shadow of that man flavoring most of his social interactions.
But then again, now that it was put out as a possibility, was there any point in hiding it? No, probably not.]
...you are more astute than you look. But yes, I am, both a reincarnation and descendant of someone. A very annoying person. King Solomon.
