Prince Shoto stood at the stand with a room full of people.

"I just finished my tour of five African countries to ensure safety of the Great Japan Empire's ships that were hijacked in African waters. To tell you the results of the tour, all 23 crew members in captivity including the captain will be freed by the end of this month. I received this promise." The crowd clapped. Todoroki smiled.

"You have achieved success in such a difficult negotiation, but I am curious to know how you reached an agreement regarding the victims' ransom." One of the reporters asked.

"To bring back every single citizen without injury was the goal of my negotiations. The palace will pay full amount needed for their release." Todoroki explained.

"In the urgent summit where various countries met without me prime minister, why did the Emperor and Empress Dowager directly involved themselves in this situation?" Another reporter asked.

"That is..." His mother started

"What do you think about the rumors of the Empress Dowager's political influence exceeding that of the prime minister's ? Are you aware that there is even talks that it is becoming the age of the Empress Dowager's control?" The reporter asked. Todoroki's mother was speechless.

"What do you mean the Empress Dowager's control?" Todoroki asked. "The imperial family does not do politics." He said.

"Prime minister? It looks like His Majesty is getting tired." Todoroki's mother said. The prime minister nervously looked around.
