Continental Hero Senki

Fine Question

The Principality of Schauenburg is an armed neutral state.

To the east lies the Scandinavian Peninsula, the Eastern Continental Empire that governs it, and to the south the Union of Livonia Nobles. Being sandwiched by this military power resembles Silesia in a way.

But what is completely different from Silesia is that this principality is a relatively powerful country militarily.

First of all, the capital of the Principality, Aeresund, is located on an island, making it difficult for the army to pass through. As much as it is said that it is not possible to drop it this time because the city of Aeresund itself is considerably fortified, even if it is succeeded by the powerful navy that the Principality possesses, even as it carries out the landing battle.

Thanks to this, the Principality is able to maintain its neutrality. Even Livonia and the Eastern Empire will not attack because their value as a hub of trade is higher than their destruction.

"But the Principality of Schauenburg also seems to be jeopardizing the recent military expansion of both the Eastern Continental Empire and the Union of Livonia Nobles. Sure, the Principality has military power, but it's not invincible."

"Hmm. I see, I know what Ostmarc wants to do."

"Yes?"

Mr. Fine is a pocan. Is this a "why did you find out" reaction? But normally I think I'll come to that conclusion... well, no. Let's just say it.

"Perhaps the Principality is divided into two factions? Abandoning the previous policy of neutrality and making allies with factions that defer to the Eastern Empire and Livonia while maintaining the policy of neutrality, - well, I don't know if I can call this neutrality - he said Ostmarc has recently arrived with a widening gulf with the Eastern Empire as its head."

…………

"Mr. Feene?

If you don't tell me if it's a detachment or a hit, I'll be ashamed to death, but I want you to say something.

"... yes, no, nothing. Never mind."

"Ha..."

She turned away. Off or off? You think I'm pathetic because I'm giving you the wrong opinion on Doya's face? What's so sad about that?

"Forget about that," Mr. Feene continued the conversation once he coughed.

"As I said earlier, the Principality should be offered an intermediary in a natural way. The Principality has the motive to do just that, and nothing seems unnatural to the Grand Duke or the Eastern Continental Empire."

"... ok. So, Ostmarc will also attend the meeting?

"Yes, once it is a concerned country... you will not come to the ministerial level. I intend to follow along, but perhaps also the Ambassador Plenipotentiary in the Principality of Chawenburg, or someone from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of my own country who is in a good position and has credibility…"

And so, for some reason, Mr. Fine solidified in a pose with his hands on his mouth. What's the matter, Mr. Feene? She's suspicious of Sarah's behavior today.

"Mr. Feene? Was it the magic of the curse? Or was the King of Snakes staring at you?

Then, finally, she moved. of, but I try to hold my head with my right hand and it is dripping.

"No, I just remembered something I didn't like"

I peeked into Mr. Fine's face saying so and he had such a distressed look on his face that he was suffering from some headache. If it wasn't a headache, how bad could it have been?

"If anything happens, I'll talk to you, right?

"It's okay. Thank you for your concern."

Mr. Feene raised his head and went back to his usual sober look...... That's not true, his expression is a little stiff.

"Well, I don't really decide to listen to personal (private) stories...... are you sure you're okay?

"It's okay. I just remembered a little bit about your father."

I see. I'm convinced. I do get a headache for some reason when I remember what Uncle Linz said. That seems to be the same for my real daughter. Mr. Feene holds his temples and he's roaring again, yeah, yeah.

"May I ask what you've been told?

"... No, you can't. I'm just talking about the inner circle."

"Ha..."

That means an internal problem within the Count Linz family...... I mean an internal problem with the nobility. Yeah, let's just say I didn't hear this story. Definitely getting into trouble.

"... Shall we return to this?"

"Right.... Er, what were we talking about?

"We're talking about a pageant, Major."

It's a pacification meeting, a pacification meeting. Yeah, it's okay, it's okay. I haven't forgotten.

"... in Mr. Fine's words, it's good that the attendees on the Silesian side include His Highness Emilia, right?

"Right. And for the Major's 'operation', the Grand Duchy also has to be seated at the conference to increase the credibility of the content of the harmony. Grand Duke, or you should take the Foreign Affairs letter."

Hmm, I see. As it is certain that the Foreign Affairs Letter will go to the Principality beyond being an important meeting, the question is who is at the top? Maybe Grand Duke Carol will squeak out. You'll want to go as a pro-East Continental imperialist, and to exchange information with them. He's the only one with that status.

But I want to prevent that. I have trouble when the Grand Duke moves me around. It would be better if you stayed within Silesia, which is easy to put under the surveillance of the Ministry of the Interior. When……,

"After all, His Majesty King Franz should be present, should he?"

I want this one to take the lead in the meeting, if possible. I mean, we should take a formatted person, but at the height of the political format, His Highness Emilia is still not high. His Royal Highness is still a colonel and a martial officer, with no political status. His Majesty Franz is the only one who seems to be more politically formatted and on his side than the Grand Duke's Foreign Affairs Letter.

Mr. Feene agreed with me.

Even so, I have no authority. Perhaps it's going to be His Highness Emilia who actually moves. I wonder who I'll take with me for now. I also have to take into account representatives of the military or something......

"I'll leave that area to Major Yuzef."

And that's what Mr. Feene said. Also called a round throw.

"Okay. In the meantime, do you decide to accompany His Majesty Franz and His Highness Emilia and later Mr. Maya or Sarah as escorts..."

Plus the Foreign Affairs Letter and maybe around the Military Letter or the Chief of General Operations or the Chief of General Staff of the General Staff... In the meantime, when I thought I had to go back to His Highness and talk to him about everything... Mr. Fine said, "If you say so".

"Major, I'm a little off the record, are you sure?

"It's okay. I'll listen to anything you say about Mr. Feene."

Except when it comes to engagements.

"... ha, well, I'm glad"

"So what is it?

"Oh, excuse me. I remember Major Marinovska."

"Is that Sarah?

"Yep."

That said, she looks at the window somehow. I wonder what it is. I'll look at the window, too. Nothing else, I see the usual view of the King's Capital. What the fuck?

"... are you there anymore"

"What is it?

"This is the story. Whatever it is, I have questions about her."

"What happened to her, Major Marinovska?
