Continental Hero Senki

To Sergei's question, His Highness Emilia failed to give a clear answer. Well, there are only a few people who can suddenly be asked this and answered, and the content of the first question is too vague.

But Sergei left without breaking his smile, even though he didn't get the answer. I don't know if that's a social dictionary, but maybe I really just wanted to ask.

After such an elaborate shoulder event, do you want to just go back to your room?

And I thought,

"Mr. Yuzef. May I?

"... what is it, Your Highness"

Her Highness Emilia gestured to sit me in the seat where Sergei had sat until earlier. It'll be a long story, I guess.

I can see what you're talking about in this situation.

"What would Mr. Yuzef have answered to the earlier question of His Highness Sergei?

"'Can peace be achieved?',?

"... Yes"

He had eyes like a mixture of seriousness, confusion and lack of confidence.

Do you regret that you have come to the diplomatic arena as a royal family but have not been able to give a clear answer to Sergei's question?

"Right...... First you don't know the definition of 'peace'"

"Define?"

"Yep. What makes it 'peaceful'?"

What peace is.

I'm pretty sure that doesn't mean the role of mahjong for now. Then it's easy to make it happen, though I mistake it for Tanyao once in a while.

Regardless of the joke, defining "peace" is difficult.

The Kingdom of Silesia is at peace now if we are simply to say that we are not at war. Even if the virtual enemy states are trying to strengthen, they are not at war.

Is it peaceful if security deteriorates at the end of the century alongside the legend of the Savior but not at war, or is it also peaceful if the domestic income gap is terrible and the slums (slums) are widening?

Are we talking only about one country in the Kingdom of Silesia, or are we talking about spanning the entire continent? Is it temporary or permanent?

What we do there changes the story.

"... Perhaps what His Highness Sergei is saying is that there will be no more wars from all over the continent and whether a time will come or is it possible for a permanent peace..."

Well, is that a reasonable place? If the Eastern Empire is the only one who wants to sweeten a temporary peace, it's easy to talk about it. You can just work in internal affairs as it is and throw away your dream of continental unity or something.

"Probably not."

"... can't you"

"I can't. Perpetual peace, political scientists from all over the continent are unobsessively building theories, because in the end they were all airborne theories on their desks."

This continent, which is still at war, proves it, and there was no more war in the previous world. A great man in history came up with all sorts of theories, but in the end there was bound to be war somewhere.

The closest time in the world to peace was at the height of the Continental Empire. Religion, language, culture, weights and measures, calendars, times when all differences were denied, unified and prosperous.

But even that era cannot be called peace. Because there were a lot of riots and bees, and in the end, they were only dampening popular dissatisfaction by the enormous military power of the Continental Empire. The harm erupted at once in the Civil War of the Continental Empire, which began in 302 of the continental calendar. The cause of the independence of the Kingdom of Silesia is also due to the Count and the people of Silesia, who endured that military pressure.

"... will there not come a permanent peace"

Her Highness, Emilia, said so, laying her eyes down. From the standpoint of saying royalty, His Highness Emilia would have aspired to permanent peace as her. It's the right thing to do as a trader, and I respect it. I would have thrown it out right away.

"But you won't be pessimistic. Even if a permanent peace is not possible, a temporary, partial peace is possible."

There are regions and countries that have not fought war for decades. Even in that state, there was tension at home and abroad. But it was avoided that a war would result in massive loss of human life.

"But even such a tiny peace must be accomplished by us politicians and military personnel powdering ourselves or by a great deal of bloodshed. It's a long way to go."

"... right. Isn't it a blockage?"

"Yes. You just have to start a little bit with what you can do. Because it is now our job to do all we can to make peace today, rather than what we do not know if there is permanent peace."
