Royalty Faction

Royalty Faction (王派閥) was a political faction that existed with the Re-Estize Kingdom, composed of a gathering of nobles who pledged their fealty to the King.

Background
The Re-Estize Kingdom was split into two factions, the Royalty Faction and the Nobility Faction. Both factions were locked in a power struggle. In addition, the Empire chose the harvest season of the late-ripening wheat to invade, causing a lack of hands in the villages. This delayed the harvest of wheat and other grains. In this way, the Kingdom would weaken without the need for a full-scale invasion, and this would weaken the power of the Crown. Because of that, the Noble faction paid these consequences no heed. In fact, they were delighted by the Royalty Faction — their enemies — losing their power and influence, failing to understand that once the Kingdom's power fell, the Empire would invade in full force. Due to this, the current king, King Ramposa III choose not to abdicate the throne.

The Undead King Arc
The faction was first mentioned that Gazef Stronoff was a prominent figure in the faction, causing the Nobility Faction to seek a means to eliminate him.

The Bloody Valkyrie Arc
In the Royal Capital, after Gazef Stronoff reports about Ainz Ooal Gown to the King and the great nobles, many of the nobles suspect that this magic caster is in allegiance to the Empire or the Theocracy, and they suggest to detain the magic caster and put him under their control.

The Men in the Kingdom Arc
and The Men in the Kingdom II Arc In the Royal Capital, Princess Renner and her friend Lakyus Alvein Dale Aindra had a discussion on considering reaching out to merchants for an new economic plan. Though the later advised against it as it would attract the attention of the Nobility Faction and would worsen the Royalty Faction's power base.

Later Princess Renner asked Marquis Raeven, the hidden leader of the Royalty Faction to aid her in suppressing Eight Fingers, and she also told him that Marquis Blumrush had betrayed the Kingdom for selling information to the Empire.

Strength
The strength of the Royalty Faction fluctuated on a constant basis due to its ongoing struggle with the Nobility Faction. The power wanes and strengthens depending on the current political situation. Additionally, even if they are called a faction, it did not mean that the many nobles who make up the groups are of one mind. No matter what, a faction was a gathering in order to further a goal or way of thinking and thus it was prone to infighting of objectives.
