Continental Hero Senki

Look to the future.

Time goes back to November 17.

Speaking of 17 November, Yuzef Waresa was the day he assumed his post as a stationed martial officer in the Ostmarc Empire, but there were similar events in the Kingdom of Silesia. On this day, the personnel of the Embassy of Ostmarc in the Kingdom of Silesia was renewed. One Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary, two ambassadors, seven civil servants below the Counsellor, and three military attachés, for a total of 13, were replaced. This amounts to about a third of Ostmark embassy members.

This personnel was naturally also the subject of discussion in the upper levels of the Kingdom of Silesia, which was inciting anxiety. What does the Ostmarc Empire think? According to an official announcement by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Ostmarc Empire, "the results of an internal investigation led to a recall to the country because of improper conduct on the part of a few members of the library below the Ambassadors in Silesia", but it was not known how far it was true. And this anxiety, combined with the information that Princess Emilia and those around her have been moving around vigorously for the past few days, had become an eerie object for the Grand Duke's great nobility.

But that anxiety will be scratched off the following 18 November by the actions of Viscount Bernhardt Lexa von Fox, Ambassador Plenipotentiary of the Ostmarc Empire. Viscount Fox visited the Grand Duke of Carroll on November 18 after seeing King Franz as his greeting for the inauguration of the embassy. It is only natural to look at Franz, the supreme power of Silesia, and then to say that he chose Grand Duke Carroll is normal, "Viscount Fox thinks that Grand Duke Carroll will be the next king. or trying to support". And Viscount Fox met with Princess Emilia, also the High Counsellor of the General Operations Headquarters of the Royal Silesian Army, on November 22, four days after his meeting with Grand Duke Carroll.

I prioritized Grand Duke Carroll, and kept Princess Emilia waiting for four days. This fact appeased and ecstatic the Grand Duchy nobility of Carol. Because the Ostmarc Empire convinced its allies, at least, that they were not enemies.

But none within the Royal Palace realized that that was the measure orchestrated by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Ostmarc Empire and the Emilian princess nobility.

27 November.

Office of the Senior Counsellor, General Operations Headquarters, Royal Silesian Army. Major Emilia continued to have no job given for the title of its head. The inability to perform effective networking even at the overdue inaugural welcoming party, as well as active networking, was hampered by the subtle position she placed and did not work very well. It is the title of "High Counsellor", which is no other, that makes that delicate position.

From above, the Royal Army General Operations Headquarters will be the Director General, Deputy Director General, Directors General, Counsellors, Directors…, and the position of High Counsellor is not inherently. Normally, it will be superior to the Counsellor, but the Counsellor is usually appointed by more than a Lieutenant Colonel. Princess Emilia is still the Major. If we are to name the High Counsellor, we need the Brigadier General, or at least the Colonel's identity. I can't resist because I'm royal. Moreover, a large capacity as High Counsellor. But the rank is kind of Major. Whether to obey or not, the troubles of the men continue to be extended, and in the end only vague replies can be given.

"How are you doing, High Counsellor Emilia?

"Maya..., you know, the way you call it... hey..."

"Yes, sir. His Highness Emilia."

“Your Highness" is no good for Emilia either, but there is a position there.

"So, what happened? He looked at me like he was in a foreign land."

"Oh, did you?

There is no such lord.

"... no, I wasn't thinking about the future."

"The future?"

"Yep. If I became king of Silesia."

"... that's quite a long story again"

"Really? In some cases, that could happen tomorrow. For example... well, your father and uncle are going to hit the cabbage, etc."

"If you do, you'll need four or five human necks in the palace."

Those who serve the royalty put their lives on the line for their daily work in every country and in every age.

"Forget the joke. If you can't see the outlook when I became king, I don't know what to do now and with whom to form it."

"What a raccoon not to be caught, sounds like?

"Operation plan, sir."

"Things seem to say."

"I have no choice. Because where we did it to the dark clouds, we don't achieve results. I'll do it in an orderly fashion and slowly. I'll do it after 30 years!

Regardless, after 30 years at this rate, the Kingdom of Silesia will no doubt perish.

"Hmm, so what is Princess Emilia's portrayal of the Kingdom of Silesia?

"... right. I apologize for the abstraction, but is it a country where the people live in peace and freedom without being frightened by threats from other countries?"

Regardless, this supreme proposition is what the head of every nation wants, once and for all. And to say that's the hardest thing to do.

Factors determining threats in other countries vary. The vagueness of economic and military power, technical ability, geopolitical location, and sometimes honor, admiration, ideology, etc. becomes a huge threat to the country. There is an extremely small number of countries in history that can eliminate all these elements. It is the discipline that helps us achieve it.

"Fine idea, but if you can do that, you won't have a hard time"

"Right. If I could do that every time, war would have disappeared from this continent."

"Then we need to look at it from another side. It can't be Grand Duke Carol, and we have to do what His Highness Emilia can do."

"What your uncle can't do..."

Grand Duke Carol is 40 this year. If he is willing to take the throne, he is old enough to see the end point of aging if it is not time to move. That's why he has to hurry, but Grand Duke Carol's movements are dull.

"What does your uncle want to do?"

"His Highness the Grand Duke?

"If your uncle wants to take the throne, or its equivalent, he's quick to assassinate my father and me."

"Yeah, but that's..."

"Yes, there is a great danger (risk). So it doesn't work, that's what I thought..."

But Princess Emilia thought there might be a reason not to. There is no physical proof, it is a woman's kang, if you say so.

It was when the Kang became stronger that he heard information about the successor feud of the Emperor's family in the Eastern Continent.

"I don't think Grand Duke Carroll is Sergei"

"May I ask why?

"... In fact, I was informed the other day by the Ambassador of the Ostmarc Empire. Depending on that, some Sergei nobles had the name of Marquis Alexei Redigel."

"Marquis Ladygel...... sure, of the imperial military minister?

"Yep. And at the same time, he's a senior general."

The name of Marquis Alexei Redigel is not confined to the Eastern Continental Empire, but is famous enough to be burned behind the brains of the heads of state of the continent. As much as they say if something happens in the Eastern Empire, if you pull the rope of the case, you'll be able to trace it to the Minister of Military Affairs.

"Unconfirmed information, but the Silesia-Karlsbert war five years ago, he was also chewing one."

"If so, does this mean that the future of Silesia that Archduke Carroll aspires to is almost identical to the future that Marquis Ladygel paints?"

"I don't know. Even in the same future, it may look triangular to the Grand Duke and recognize it as circular to the Marquis"

"In any case, you're wondering what the Marquis wants"

"Yep. The Marquis is trying to support Sergei, not a real power-wielding baby, for his future."

"What are you trying to do... I can think of a few reasons why we caused the Silesia-Karlsbert war,"

Maya's "several points that come to mind" are almost identical to those pointed out by Fine von Linz in a remote exotic land. In other words, the blocking of the Silesia-Karlsbert alliance, and restraint against the Silesian nobility.

"But I'm talking about the infamous Marquis Ladygel. I wouldn't be surprised if there was something more."

"For example?"

"Right. When I realized that the kingship of Silesia had been overthrown and had become a part of the Eastern Continental Empire, and that the Governor of that part had been appointed Grand Duke Carol... or something"

"... you don't want to imagine"

"Yep. More than that, I can't imagine. It is certainly less bloodshed and more efficient for the Eastern Continental Empire. But if Grand Duke Carroll becomes the status of territorial governor, he will bear the blame of the Silesian people all by himself. If you suck..."

So, Princess Emilia's words stopped. Because I had anticipated a tough future that I really didn't want to imagine before things I could not imagine.

Regardless, the anticipation is of no physical evidence or anything, an idea generated by Princess Emilia's rampage of thought. That is how Princess Emilia became aware and forced her to stop anticipating any further.

"Your Highness?"

"Yes, no. It's nothing. Anyway, whatever you do, you have no information. For a while, we will have the help of the Ostomark Empire, but we will have to get the information on our own."

"I know. In order to do so, first and foremost, you should expand the external intelligence services. It will be based on the Security Police Department of the Ministry of the Interior, but we would like to make it independent as a separate organization under the Royal Administration."

"Alternatively, let's also look at integration with the intelligence services set up at this General Operations headquarters. The question is whether there are people who can be trusted, not the Grand Duchy…"

Thus Princess Emilia is beginning to fight for her own ideals in the vague position of High Counsellor.

---

As Princess Emilia struggled alone at General Operations, anger was flying in a garrison on the outskirts of Sironsk, the king's capital.

This garrison is staffed by the 3rd Cavalry Regiment of the Kingsguard Division, an escort unit specializing in the First Princess at the finest of the kingdoms. It was on November 13 that a young female officer took up his post in the 15th Platoon of the 3rd Cavalry Regiment of its Kingsguard Division.

He graduated from the 123rd Cavalry Section of the Cavalry School. Besides, she's a woman, very beautiful according to rumors. That is all, the morale of those who plan to become subordinates is unknown to the ceiling. And when you actually see her, it culminates.

Burning bright red hair color, a well-looking face, and perseverance. In a vulgar way, it was a "beautiful girl". Everyone would have thought I could work under such a commander. No, not just her subordinates, but even her immediate supervisor, the regiment leader, thought something similar.

The work ahead will surely be good. That's what I thought.

But that future prediction will collapse without half an hour.

"There! I won't bring it! You can't even ride a horse satisfactorily!?

She sounds military in a way, and in a certain way she puts a storm of cursing and murmuring at her men in a tone that is nothing but beautiful girls. If I failed, I beat him up, and if it was something to the blade, I was a ghost instructor enough to set up a metal sword. My men never call me incompetent. Because they are members of the Kingsguard division, which is once an elite. However, the work of the Kingsguard Division is often ceremonial and liturgical, and is not intended to be fought in action. The new commander was worried about the situation and employed real-life training to make his men recognise what the cavalry was all about.

Regardless, the commander of the regiment was puzzled and flattered by this situation. But the new officer objected to the advice head-on.

"Have rituals and ceremonies and such things ever helped you in action?!? So, Emilia, how can you protect your Highness?

He shouted with no respect, no fear for his boss, and the momentum to spit in the face of the regiment leader. Her words make sense. But what you call royalty is basically a creature that doesn't leave Silonsk. Whether you go abroad or not, the direct escort is under SS jurisdiction. If you're a SS, you have the strength to kick ass easily if you're about to be a thief. Therefore, the main task of the Kingsguard Division will be to provide a courtesy and welcome to guests who have come to the Wang Capital.

"So if the princess ever goes to the battlefield, what will the Commander of the Regiment do?

That can't be happening. And he couldn't say.

Currently the Princess is also a Major in the Royal Army. If the princess strongly desires operational command, the Ministry of Military Affairs and the General Operations cannot be stopped. Besides, it's not such a rare story that the royal family leads the army. In ancient times it was Boris Romanov, the first emperor of the Continental Empire, and in the example of Silesia, the second king, Marek Silesia. If the princess joins that line, she will undoubtedly lead the Kingsguard 3rd Cavalry Regiment. SS is only a task of escort, not a unit in action.

"Actually out on the battlefield, and Her Royal Highness takes command. Yet what if the troops you command are not useful in action?

If that happens, the Kingsguard Division will perish and the princess will die in battle.

"You got the answer. Enough? Because I want to continue my training."

When she said so, she withdrew from the scene without waiting for the Regiment Leader to respond.

It was only a few months after she took office that the 3rd Cavalry Regiment of the Kingsguard Division came to make that name blow as the Kingdom's strongest cavalry.
