After returning to the mansion, he slept in his cot with a slept support in an attempt to go straight to bed.

But he's strangely smart and doesn't seem to be able to sleep.

... In my head, there was a conversation with my mother and that sight.

'... not to mourn the tragedy. Let this sight last forever'

The look on your mother's face when she said that was very beautiful.

I didn't even think that the way I was born... was like a mother who would have mercy on everything.

What, therefore, were my thoughts of the people?

Thinking that far, I thought of what I had done so far...... unexpectedly, I laughed.

I thought it was the same.

When I met Mina and the orphanage kids...... yeah, I thought you decided more than that when you looked around this territory.

A weasel who has never been in politics. But I have power. It is a power in the name of the Lords' Agent. My path, my exchange, it all depends on the lives of the people.

All the paperwork on the desk can be burdensome even when scratching every one of them.

Still, to protect the lives of the people.

You already decided to be ready.

That's... after that breaking noise, I was feeling weak for a long time.

I was wondering if my presence at the top of the consular government was harmless and unprofitable. In that case, I wonder if everything I do will go in the wrong direction.

... such a weak thing, not if you think.

I've already moved on. The flow involves the people and also the territory.

Now I can't say I'm not ready.

I'm just moving on to make my thoughts come true.

We must not lose sight of our purpose. Because if I bewilder, so will the people and the people who follow me.

I just do what I have to do.

Until then, when I thought about it, I suddenly felt like Ston and Moya Moya on my chest had disappeared and my mind had settled.

And as it was, I comfortably entrusted it to my dreams.

The next day I called Lyle and Dida again.

"May I help you, Princess?"

"Yeah. I wanted you guys to listen. Be ready for me."

To my word, Lyle turned her eyes round as surprised...... Dida was laughing all the time saying it was funny.

"... Dida asked me yesterday. I was wondering if you were ready."

That's what I'm talking about.

"Though I was upset at that time... if you think about it, it was more of an inquiry."

To my answer, Dida was supposed to be Pocan......

"Because I've already made up my mind. Protect this territory from the people who live in it."

"... do you want to bleed to protect me?

"Yes”... "No."

To my answer, Lyle as well as Dida tilt her neck.

"I have already carried hundreds of people's lives on this shoulder. My role is to protect this territory… and the people. For that reason, I will move the soldiers if I have to. And take responsibility for it."

There's no such thing as a world where no one gets hurt. You knew that.

"But. Don't let that happen... I'll scratch your feet till the end. Negotiate, look at the time, don't let the situation flow. How can we not let the battle take place rather than how to win it? First of all, I'll make it work."

Is the purpose a means?

Exactly, I was.

How should I shoulder my responsibility for the battle if there is one? What a lord should look like. That's all I've been thinking about.

But it's not. Because the means are never one.

Looking ahead, narrowing wisdom and setting up measures. The pen, the head and the tip of this mouth, my weapon.

Force is the last card so you can play other cards before you pull it off.

That's my role.

"But... what if... if you decide that's the only way to go. Lyle, Dida. I'm begging you. So that there will be a little less blood to shed. And all I could do was leave that path behind, and I'll take full responsibility for it."

When I ran out of words, for some reason Dida started laughing.

... Did I say something strange?

No, I told you seriously...

"Wonderful determination... a very sweet word"

"Dida......!

Lyle next door to Dida is outraged.

"But good. Such a princess makes me want to protect you. Take the princess, the princess's precious."

Are you saying... you passed?

"... something good if you be honest"

Lyle said that, as he was frightened.

"Ma'am, we are your shields and swords. We'll pay for your troubles. If that's all you have left... lean on us. We must protect you."

Lyle says so, and takes courtesy of the knight.

Dida did the same next to it.

"Yep. Thanks...... Lyle, Dida"

They also don't want to lose me...... because it's something I want to protect.

I'm in my area, let's fight.
