And that's how I ended up in a damp and dusty room.
In it there was only a stone bed and a bucket that served as a bathroom.
It… seems like they were looking for some excuse to execute me.
Here I have three options.
First, I abandon the identity of Alex and let them execute me, obviously I won't die, only the real Alex will die.
Second, I can brainwash guards, nobles, and basically everyone who suspects me.
The problem with this option is that it takes a long time, besides, someone can always escape me, so it is not very reliable, and on the other hand, it is not funny to brainwash people, that is not my style.
Third and last solution, create such a big mess that they forget about me... hehe, that option will be.
They may suspect me because just when they arrest me that happens, but what does it matter? Even if they do I can disappear.
Well, now the question is, what do I do?
I can bring the troops of the demon realm… no, the capital has several archmages, it would be suicide to bring them, and above all the biggest problem, the capital is far from the border, so even if we manage to take it all the surrounding cities will send reinforcements .
Also releasing the prisoners from the royal jail... no, doing so won't ensure enough chaos, not to mention that they may be no match for the guards.
I came back to the same point, I don't know what to do.
I thought for a while until the illumination came to me.
TRUE! There is a fourth option, how did I not think of it before?
With this it is obvious that they left their suspicions about me.
With the plan decided, I left a small illusion in the prison and teleported to my room in the academy.
Now… who will bear my sins.
Several names came to mind, including my classmates, my friends or some students from other classes.
At that moment a name came to mind.
Of course, he will be perfect… I liked him but they are necessary sacrifices.
With my chosen victim I used wind magic to hide myself perfectly and left my room.
Step by step I went through the academy in search of my victim.
After searching for a while I found it.
And it looks like they haven't reviewed it yet.
I slowly entered the staff room and approached Professor Hector.
I'm sorry, Professor Hector, but it's so that he can continue to be in the academy.
With a finger I brushed his body, contaminating it with traces of the poison that affected the prince.
"You were the one who poisoned the prince, you will deny it but at the same time you will leave small indications that it was you"
"I understand"
I know I said I didn't want to use brainwashing, but once doesn't hurt, plus I like being at the academy and I don't want to leave yet.
I slowly left the room.
"Professor Hector, come with us"
At that moment two guards arrived and took the professor away.

-How is everything going-
-So far we haven't had any problems, humans are really useful when their lives depend on it-
-How was the last harvest-
-Well, thanks to the food extracted from the 5 cities that we assimilated and their crops, almost no citizen of the nine races has gone hungry-
-I am glad to hear that-
I was currently on my throne in the demon realm receiving a report from Bella.
-How is the training of the new recruits going-
-As ordered we are using the dungeons to train them, which has increased the effectiveness by one hundred percent-
-Excellent-
While talking to Bella I felt a spatial distortion.
-Wait…-
I closed my eyes for a moment and confirmed it.
For a spatial distortion to get here means it was something big.
During the next few minutes I received continuous communications from all my generals.
They all said exactly the same thing.
'A great spatial distortion occurred in the Iue empire'
Looks like something big is coming...
