No one who could reach this position was a fool; no explanation was necessary. Baturu, Jili, Zoro, and Zagi—all of them were Lucifer's direct subordinates. With a new sovereign taking the throne, it was only natural to follow Lucifer's lead.
Naturally, the newly vacated positions needed to be filled. The new sovereign was now in power, but it would still be a long time before he formally ascended, so picking out people he favored meant choosing the most powerful successors.
Wasn't it the most natural thing in the world for the new sovereign to arrange for his own people to take power? Everyone here was part of the political elite; piling up a bit of merit for one's son was a simple matter. They were all direct subordinates of Lord, and their children would be the new sovereign's direct subordinates in the future, so the operation wouldn't be too difficult to pull off.
