"General... Until then, you think I will betray His Majesty's trust in Leongando and take hostile action against Gandhia?

The cloudy and rugged look on Isius Ray-Myon's face, which probably left him young, is the manifestation that this incident was also a water event in his sleeping ear. And Isius is shaking his hand in anger only because the rumors that now flow within Gandion's royal palace are what clogged Mion's dishonesty and were as if Mion were the mastermind of this case.

"This Gilbert-Hardy is best acquainted with the fact that Your Majesty does not do such a thing. But it's also true that it's not a rumor without roots or leaves."

Gilbert went, staring into Isius' slightly blood-running eyes. Isius couldn't even get a cohesive sleep since his wedding day. There was time. But the situation doesn't allow him to sleep.

To Myon, the eyes of disbelief are turned.

"Where my depository knows that Mion has betrayed Gandhia?"

"Your Majesty... look at the current state of Myon"

"You mean Mars did? Ridiculous."

Isius seemed instantly to understand what Gilbert was up to with with his brilliance in advance. That's what I meant by kicking Gilbert's ass.

"But besides Chancellor Mars-Barr, you can move Myon."

Rumor is that Mion conspired with Kruselk to take the lives of the royal families of the nations who participated in the wedding of Leongand and Nage. Even not that far, there were stories that the box containing the Imperial Demon, a gift from Kruselk, was delivered to this Gandion from the Mion side, and that one seemed closer to the fact than to rumors, and with the tail fin on that fact, the theory of the Mion conspiracy began to appear.

Rumor has also reached Gilbert's ear that rumors are spreading throughout the Wang capital, not just within the palace, and that there is an accelerating distrust of Myon.

Gilbert himself, was plain to the eyes of disbelief that could be directed at him. While I don't think it's a setup for what I've fought for more than once in the Battle of Gandia, given the seriousness of the case of releasing the Imperial Devil to the Royal Palace, I also thought it would be irrelevant to react like that. But it was also true that when people responded like that by not remembering to look at it, it was not pleasant.

And he believes that both Gilbert's being seen like that and Mion's suspicious eye are all caused by Mars-Barr, who remains within Mion. There is no one else in Myon but Mars-Barr, such as someone who can move the country without the knowledge of Isius. Only he can move Myon. Both Myon's politics and his military are what Mars-Barr wanted.

Both that and this is due to how Isius was placed on the throne. When the earlier king fell, Mars took over Isius and began a dispute over his succession to the throne, and with Gandia's patronage, he made Isius inherit the throne. If Mars hadn't taken action, Isius wouldn't have succeeded to the throne, and I'm not sure he would have lived to this day.

Sius Reus-Mion, brother of Isius and heir to the first throne at the time, and his proximity, have a verse that endangers the existence of the Isius sect and was intended to assassinate Isius. Rumors of unknown origin, but given Sius' provocative character, it was not an unlikely story.

"Mion cooperates with Kruselk, etc... that's impossible. There must not be... You must know that too, Mars. Isn't it a place to make a pact with the devil, such as dealing with a country that serves the Imperial Devil?"

Isius' voice was trembling, perhaps because Mars-Barr really betrayed Gandhia and even went so far as to say if he was connected to Kruselk. No, Gandia wasn't the only one Mars betrayed. Would it have betrayed Isius as well as Lucion and other nations of our allies?

Maybe that fact shook Isius's voice.

"Let's go back to the country. You have to ask Mars a question."

"Whether the Chancellor answers honestly or not"

"Has Mars ever lied to me?

"It's..."

"Mars is the man who made it happen when he said he would make me king. The man who accomplished it when it came to improving Mion's finances. Myon is doing well because Mars is in politics. I don't think there's anything wrong with what Mars would do."

Isius went with a somewhat calm voice. Though it seemed like he was telling his heart.

"There's a reason. I'm sure. Ask that, and if I'm wrong, why don't we make it right? That shall be my work, king of Myon."

"Ha"

For that, I must ask His Majesty's forgiveness.

(That's the problem)

Leongand does not necessarily allow Isius to return home. Of course, I don't have the right to refuse Isius' actions to Leongand, who is not my master, but given the circumstances, I can't hope that Gandhia's side doesn't take hard means. If Isius returns to Myon, he may well close the border. I may cut off my national traffic with Gandia and run to Kruselk. In that case, the nations between Myon and Kruselk may follow Myon's actions and be overwhelmed by Kruselk.

"Sire, please rest now. I will speak to His Majesty Leongand."

Gilbert-Hardy took a seat, acknowledging that Isius was haunted. What he was in was a room loaned to Isius, a room that was exhausted only by inviting kings of other nations. Gilbert's room is also luxurious, but it was incomparable. It would be natural for kings and generals to be treated differently.

"I'm sorry... General"

"Don't be sorry. I hope you're only thinking about sleeping now..."

"... ok. Let me do that."

Isius went in a bright tone once again, not to show fatigue. Gilbert lowered his head deeply and left the room, weeping in his chest at the care of our Lord. Isius is only an early teenage boy. Even though he might have been assassinated, he seemed to think from day to day about what he should be like as a king, having overcome the harsh fate of having to discuss his real brother.

Such Isius' goal is Leongando.

I had decided to be a man like Leongando Ray-Gandhia, in my heart.

Both that and this seemed to be due to Leongando's letters, which could be delivered to Isius from time to time, since Mars-Barr mounted Gandhia's patronage. Isius leaked to the surroundings that he found himself in Leongand in the letter and that Leongand should be his goal. It was when Leongand was scorned for “lying”. Mars-Barr looked bitter, but Gilbert had the thought of wrapping his tongue around Isius' definite figure eyes.

It's not something you can do inside, such as discerning the essence of someone you've never had first-hand.

"Of course, I know. I am well aware that the General and His Majesty Isius are not involved in this matter. I have never even thought about it, such as His Majesty Isius being hostile to me. I can even cross the blade with the general."

(Weight increased...?)

Gilbert felt herself indulged in Leongand's majestic voice. I had never felt more nervous in front of Leongando.

During the sight of the Lion's Royal Palace.

On the throne was Leongando Ray-Gandia, the lion king with the eyes of a ship, and next to it was the figure of the warrior Nares-Ragnahorn. Two of the three, known as Gandhian leapfrogging actors, are devoting their time just for a meeting with Gilbert. Maybe that fact is giving Gilbert more urgency than he needs.

"But we cannot deny the fact that the goods were brought into Gandia territory from the Myon border."

"It's not a rumor, it's a fact. My lord."

"Fact......"

Gilbert stopped breathing into the words of Leongand and Nahless. The only way to overshadow that information is to poke another truth than Leongand and Nahless recognize it as a fact, but that couldn't have happened to the Gilberts staying in Gandhia, and they're returning home for it.

"It's more than a fact. We have to find out the truth. I don't want to doubt Mion, my ally."

"Mion and Gandia have been dating for a long time, and their bonds are as strong as Lucion's. Bilateral exchanges have also flourished, especially since His Majesty Isius was able to lead Mion. I don't want to break this relationship… Your Majesty thinks so too"

"... but what prevents my thoughts, because I am in Myon"

Ha, I looked up. Leongand's right eye was watching Gilbert as he shot through. Eyes as bright and clear as the lake's surface emit sharp, intense light. No hostility, no malice. It's just intense.

"Mars-Barr"

Leongand inadvertently called out the prime minister's name. And it keeps going cold.

"He's the one most suspicious. but he is also the person who has been most committed to his alliance with Gandia. And he's a credit man for rebuilding Myon. If the general is to return to Myon with His Majesty Isius, I want you to prove his innocence."

Gilbert, as Leongand put it, erased his expression. Ask.

"... if you can't?

"All you have to do is give Mars-Barr his neck. So you can wipe away your distrust of Myon."

What Leongand said could have been called an order to Myon. The fact that Gandhia has become stronger is definitely the context for his words and actions. And to that power, such as a general of Mion, we just have to lay low.

"Ha..."

Gilbert didn't feel alive until he got out of sight.

Because Leongand's eyes seemed to shoot through his soul.
