Continental Hero Senki

28 July 638 Continental Calendar.

"Perhaps in the near future, the Second and Ostmarc Empires will enter a state of engagement. A full-scale war could lead to an intervention by the Eastern Empire, so it would be a regional conflict."

When the war is about to begin by Yuzef's plot and the plot of a figure in the Ministry of Information of the Far Ostmark Empire, the Governor-General's Office of Krakow.

On this day, the omen of the outbreak of the Seventh War was conveyed from Yuzef's mouth. And as with the hour, a certain word was uttered from Emilia.

"My father, or King Franz Silesia, summoned me."

"The recall order, is it?"

"It's not such a big deal...... but for a while Maya and I will be leaving Krakow. Hopefully Ostmarc and Christ will be at war and our country will send troops..."

Silesia never intervened by force in this war, which was supposed to end in a regional conflict. Because there is a considerable distance from the original, it is unlikely that the funds and supplies to intervene will be in distress, so there is no need.

Emilia's discussions with Maya and Yuzef led Yuzef, Sarah and Fine to go to the site as spectator martial arts officers, Emilia accompanied her escort to the king's capital and Maya was to remain in Krakow. Naturally, Radek, who works in the Krakow garrison, and his partner Lisel also remain in Krakow.

"Yuzef."

"Yes."

"I'm hungry."

"Okay."

Thus did Yuzef leave the governor's office in the form of Sarah being taken.

Emilia and Maya were left on the premises of the Governor's Office.

"... Your Highness, were you sure?

"What is it, Maya?

Maya asks, frowning, and Emilia cleans up the paperwork without worrying. Because I don't have time to go to Wang Capital, so I have to reduce my work a little bit, but that is the apparent reason.

"I'm talking about His Highness Emilia's engagement. Are you glad you didn't tell me?

When Maya said so, Emilia stopped her hand.

But it was a moment, and from the side, it just seemed as if I was lost in what I was going to write on the paperwork. I was really lost, but that's not what happened.

"... I won't tell you. I'm just saying, Mr. Yuzef's in trouble."

It is certain that her words, which she answers so quietly and so calmly, were of the princess's due.

Emilia is 17 this year.

As a royalty, it's time to establish political status and authority by engagement. This continental calendar year 638 is also the most suitable time for marriage, when we are approaching the right age for childbirth, and when the situation is relatively calm at home and abroad.

"The opponent was indeed the royal family of Ostmarc."

"Yep. It's also politically plausible. If the two countries are to enter into friendly relations in the future, we need this ritual even more."

"Is it ritual?"

Maya often had to be confused by things like other personnel.

It is certainly a better place than being born as a royal woman to have a romantic marriage. First and foremost there is political marriage, underneath which there is economic marriage and further underneath which there is romantic marriage.

"But Your Highness. Personally, I want His Highness to grasp His Highness's own happiness."

"If so, don't worry. My happiness is that the people live happily ever after. If so, we would be happy to dedicate ourselves to that material marriage."

Strong, I said so... not that.

As always, quietly and serenely, is. Maya and I don't try to keep an eye on each other, we just stare at the paperwork. And there's no one second delay in the speed at which we get the job done.

"Your Highness, I dare you. No, thank you for your clarity. My name is not Marriage. It shouldn't be a problem to hope to have that kind of relationship with him (...)"

Indeed, Maya is right.

There are also many royalties who enjoy romance by distinguishing and separating marriage from work and romance from their hobbies. The awareness is rooted in this continent that the story of who the royalty marries more than the former is due to its own free will.

So no problem. You don't have to say marriage, but if you're in love, Maya says it shouldn't be a problem.

But with Emilia, that was not a compromise line.

"Maya."

For the first time since this topic came up, Emilia looked into Maya's eyes.

"We don't know who he is."

…………

"Vertically, Maya said," Even if he was someone I knew... it's not possible. "

Emilia affirms.

"The person and I live in a world too different. If you marry, you'll be married to a princess. If you don't, you'll have a bad reputation."

So there's no chance of that.

Again, Emilia affirmed that.

"Let's not talk about this here. Because there's still a lot to do."

Collect a bunch of paperwork, Emilia reaching for the next bunch of paperwork.

"……………………"

Maya then looks at Emilia's hands, which tremble slightly, and then quietly continues her duties without becoming interested in chatter.
