"What we want from The White Shield is help in the next battle. Briefly, I want you to join my army as a mercenary."

It was on Gandia's side that greetings also cut the tone of the negotiations there. Did you say Zephyr-Maldean, one of the men near King Leongand? Should I say with a gentleman with a moustache? He was a person of such characteristics.

Five men are poking each other in the reception room at the former Teulos family apartment.

The mercenary group White Shield leader Kuon-Kamiya and deputy chief Swiel-Lanagaudi are seated side by side, with three people on the Gandia side calming their hips opposite each other. It's King Gandhia, Leongando Ray-Gandhia, and his two neighbors, Barrett-Weissmoon and Zephyr-Maldeen. It is sandwiched by a strong barrette and gentleman-style zephyr, and seated by a crystal-like leongand of your species.

The number of persons was not specifically specified. If there weren't too many, there would have been no problem. It's a business meeting. You just have to have someone who's both decisive and someone who understands what's inside.

In that sense, you can leave the White Shield to Swell. He was most familiar with the inside details of The White Shield, and he has a strong decision to make. The only thing that could override that decision was the commander's quon, but it was more about following his decision. He is the elderly, experienced, intelligent, and the one who thinks the most about the organization. At least, I love The White Shield so much more than Kuon.

Such a swirl had a glance at the documents presented earlier. There should be more details about the contract and the amount.

Seven months after Quon was summoned to this world. There. I never felt inconvenient with words, but it was a series of distress when it came to reading and writing. Mana and Waldo had taught me as long as I had time, and the plain sentences would have improved enough to read, but the story may be different when it comes to hard sentences for these kinds of documents.

"What is the next battle?

"I might wake you up soon, or it might happen. Tell me the details and you'll be in trouble, won't you?

Talk military secrecy and you won't be able to pull it off later. If you're up for the contract, it's still not going to be acceptable that you can't contract while you listen that far. It's like being taken away from the country's future policies to another country. It is also against morality and, more importantly, it is self-evident that if we allow such lawlessness, the country will cease to stand. There is nothing you should be more concerned with than managing information.

However, if we keep an eye on Gandia's previous trends, it is also something that we can easily imagine. Soon, because I'm suggesting it. It was a little hard to think that Gandhia would then attack Azark or Berel. And Azark or Berrell would be able to handle it adequately with the current force that swallowed the logner.

Wanting an invincible White Shield implies that their next goal is a nasty enemy.

"Right."

When Quon showed satisfaction with Zephyr's words, Swell embarked on himself.

"You mean unknown about the duration of the contract?

"It can't be a short-term showdown, I can say. Regardless, the reward will be multiplied according to the number of days."

Barrett comes naturally. If you're bound for the long term, there's no point in contracting if you don't get that much money. Gandia is not the only negotiator for the White Shield. You can call it a deduction fee. The unbeatable legions became a disincentive to the neighbouring countries just because they belonged there. I also hear that the name of the Invincible Shield, the White Shield, is no longer unknown in the small group of nations. Even if there is no battle during the term of the contract, it is worth paying off.

I guess Gandhia understands that too. Swell says he's not dissatisfied with the amount presented in the paperwork. It's too much to run the White Shield and stabilize the lives of the crew. That would be an addition to Gandia's expectations to the acclaim the White Shield has gained so far.

"I would now like to ask you about the role of the White Shield in that battle."

"The most difficult battlefield for an invincible shield. Yes, I think so. Are you dissatisfied?

"No, I'd rather not."

When Quon answered flatly, Swell said something sideways. but he wanted to have a conversation with Leongand in the form of silencing his deputy's gaze.

Leongando Ray-Gandia. It's been a long time since they called me "Uchi”. Whether it was a mask to deceive the public or a blessing to a good man, his assessment turned a month ago dramatically into a frontier. Once, when Quon joined the Logner army to recapture Fortress Balsar, he forced him to take control of Logner immediately after. Different factors must have been involved in the short-term showdown, but the public decided that Leongand was not just a “noose” in that electric victory. Even with regard to the rule of the old Logner after the war, I did not hear of any bad reputation. Gandia's military statutes were harsh and did not tolerate looting or crime multiplied by post-war chaos, and violators were severely punished. It seems to be out of his mind that it is the same thing to bow to the country to get your hands on it, because the areas you control will be the national territory of Gandhia and people will be Gandhian citizens.

The security and logistics seem to be stable, and the people of Myram seem to be satisfied with the ever-increasing vitality every day.

In that sense, he may be the ideal monarch. Even though we do not know what is intrinsic, it is reassuring as a quon that the attitude towards the new dominions is not high pressure.

Peace of mind is about how we treat Setuna.

That's all he had to worry about.

Is Setuna doing well in Gandhia? Are you able to build good relationships if you are not being used or forced into difficult situations? Ever since I was convinced Setuna was the boy I knew, I've been thinking about that all along. I know it's because of you. I know a hundred things about him, but it's also true that I can't help thinking about him.

It's a human saga called Quong. There's nothing I can do about all this.

That was the same during this negotiation. Setsuna's face, which I saw at first sight, is burning to the retina. It's a nostalgic boy's face. I was surprised to see the quon, I'm sure, because the information established that the quon he would have known and the quon he knew was the same person. Kuon could have looked the same.

I would have thought it must be the same person by a name like no other, and by a summons from Azmaria. But the shock is not the same as thinking and finalizing. Quon thought Leongand would never forget the shock when he walked in with Setuna. A red-eyed boy with dark hair. He still had some humble, unbearable look on his face.

I heard it.

"By the way, will His Holiness Setuna Zenon-Kamiya be joined in that coming war?

"Do you care?

Zephyr looked strange. It is not known to what extent the Gandia side knows about Setuna. Zephyr's reaction is vague, too. I can take it so that I know everything, and I can take it in the wind that I only know some things.

Quon didn't hide it. It's not worth hiding.

"Yes, because he is my friend"

"Well, that's my first ear."

Leongand has hammered me a little. He seemed to be listening from Setuna. The Lord of Setuna. Rumor has it that Leongando found and signed up for Setuna is the beginning of Gandhia's fast forward. I can also tell that Leongand is heavily using Setuna simply by saying that he is taking him to an escort. It wasn't strange to hear a lot from Setsuna, and Setsuna, who was asked, seems to be answering honestly.

"I've known him a long time. Thought we'd never see each other again..."

Kuon looked at Swell. He seemed deeply sighed at the captain's unsolicited behavior, but I guess he's giving it up. I'm not even trying to flatter you.

"As you may be aware of Lord Setuna's position, he is captain of the Royal SS Lion's Tail. His presence on the battlefield means that His Majesty will be present. Do you know what this means?

"I see."

Quon was convinced of Zephyr's words. Explicit participation of Setuna here is the same as expressly stating the appearance of Leongand, which is like declaring that the opponent of the subsequent war is so opponent that he has to run from Mizu the King. Although the opponent is not necessarily a powerful country.

Leongand accidentally opened his mouth.

"No, he'll get it out."

"Your Majesty"

Barrett tried to glorify the king, but Leongand kept his mouth shut as he looked into Quon's eyes.

"If you could hire an invincible shield, no matter what the battle, you have no hand in not putting out my strongest spear"

Kuon's chest leaped, recalling the sight of black spears and white shields juxtaposed.
