Continental Hero Senki

Old story three.

18 Mar 614 Continental Calendar.

Father, Vazwaf Silesia is defeated. Franz Silesia, the first brother to inherit the throne, succeeded.

The death of my father, whose body was not originally strong, was not surprising to say this.

Regardless, I mourned and grieved as a son, but that was all.

It was four days after his brother's reign that a cabinet of ministers was formed to assist the current king Franz Silesia, in accordance with the will of his predecessor, Vazwav.

I was entrusted to the Prime Minister of the Kingdom. It is number two in political terms. I was an official of the Ministry of Industry until my father died.

The task after the assembly was to conduct diplomacy around the countries with the Foreign Affairs Letter.

The aim is to restrain foreign countries from interfering in their internal affairs all the time here, with a view to the period of what we call the death of a monarch.

But each country seemed to be busy with its own business or with other countries. The Eastern Continental Empire has a conflict with the Second Reich of Christ, the Ostmarc Empire rubs on domestic ethnic issues, and the Republic of Karlsbert is politically unstable with successive presidential changes. Livonia, the only one running a decent state, also began watching things because other anti-Silesian alliance countries were unwilling to ride.

The domestic problems associated with the fall of the King also go towards convergence, with the usual Kingdom of Silesia returning. Every one of those arrowheads.

November 18.

"Carol, listen to me! On November 14th, I had a daughter!

……

Even at his age, Alfreto came to the Chancellery, familiar with his lack of courtesy. No matter what I promised in advance, I'm used to it.

He succeeded his retired father and is currently the head of the Duke's family. That's why I should no longer be able to get out of the Duke's territory, but apparently he came under me just to make that report.

"He looks like Otilia and has solferino colored eyes. I'm sure when you grow up, you'll be a beautiful woman like Otilia!

"... my daughter looks like her father. Probably gonna be a swordsman idiot."

I imagined the sight of a beautiful woman with eyes and hair the same color as Lord Otilia wielding her sword and knocking down her enemies, but I have a strange feeling of firmness. Not to say that Lord Oritia himself is quick to fight, but for a woman, she also has a long physique and the sight suits her well.

Well, that's only a story if the genes of Lord Oritia and the idiot genes of Alfreto are truly inherited. Wouldn't it be surprising to grow into a lady?

"Oh, I'm looking forward to growing up now. Do schools still want aristocratic schools? But if you want to learn swordsmanship, you also have a hand in cadet school. Either way, I'm sure you'll nail the eyes of a classmate boy!

I guess I can also praise my daughter, who is similar to my own wife, Lord Otilia, because he loves Lord Otilia. It's love, but it's also like him.

... If there's one thing that doesn't work, it's that I don't want you to talk to me about that affair right now.

"Alfreto. I know I haven't seen you in a long time and feel shaky, but I'm raw and busy. Will you do it again?"

"... what's up, Carol? That's pretty cold."

"Nothing, normal"

"No, you're in a bad mood today. Carol, your brother and... you fought with His Majesty the King, didn't you?

He is a good guy for this kind of thing because of his long relationship.

"How did you find out?

"Something similar happened in aristocratic school. So, what happened?

"It's painful to say, a disgrace within you. Don't ask me."

"That's what happened. How many times have I told you the shame of my family?

"That must be about you."

Write it as a living disgrace and read it as Alfreto. My predecessors would have struggled a lot. Shall we say hello next time? No, but my predecessor was close to my brother...

But in any case, this is also something that will be published throughout the kingdom, throughout the continent. It's pointless to hide it from him here.

I want you to decide what you couldn't have done, it's a disgrace in you.

---

Alfreto's daughter was born, November 14.

Oddly enough, that day was also the first day my brother called me in a long time.

On the day His Majesty the King called me, then there were many times. But privately, how many years have you been called as a brother?

"What is it, Your Majesty... no, my brother"

"Oh, I thought I should talk to the only family member before I report to the Miyagi."

"... Miyagi?

Miyagi, I had a bad sweat at that point.

His position is to take on tasks involving royalty and the royal palace. It was also the Miyagi script that carried out the command of his father's funeral and partitioned his brother's crowning ceremony. Precisely, the Miyagi Manifesto.

Can I say that the department is in charge of taking care of the royal family while maintaining the royal palace and directing the royal coronation? Regardless, that's not all, but that's the main job.

I have a bad feeling about "reporting" to such a Miyagi.

And the hunch was, apparently, a hit. How can anyone who says this kind of hunch hit me as well as the unpleasant?

"I, Franz Silesia, the 7th King of the Kingdom of Silesia, am to marry a woman who is a Kingsamurai (maid of honor) in the Palace of Wise Men (Philozov Palettes) this time"

I needed a few seconds to understand my brother's words.

What the hell is this guy talking about?

An unprecedented aversion struck me.

"Are you insane......!

"That's insane. Is there a problem?

"It's huge!

The identities of the Kingsamurai serving the House of Wise Men vary.

Often a daughter of nobility with a title. Many choose to serve under royalty in the House of Wise Men as a place to remember manners and to get connections with royalty.

But when you become the daughter of a man with a high title, you become a minority. For this reason, it is also possible that he "married the four women of the fallen Viscount".

... No, it is most likely to be abominable.

"Who are they?

"... who was originally a Kingslayer at the Viscount. Since last year, I have worked as a gardener at the Sage Palace. I made it up to the maid on my recommendation. She's a beautiful blonde. She was in love at first sight."

"I'm not asking that! the origin of the person, his family, his kinship, his relationship with another country! There must be a lot to consider. That's what I'm asking!

You incompetent bastard, he cursed inside.

I roughed up my voice so much that I was about to say it in jeopardy.

"Don't be so loud. It's a royal palace."

"... excuse me. So, who are they?

No, this may already be a stupid question.

Kingsamurai who served the Viscount's house? An ex-gardsmith? A woman of such stature that she was finally close to her brother's strange demeanor can't be someone of such stature. Even if you're beautiful, it doesn't make sense if you don't have the identity to match it.

A monarch's marriage is a concern anyway. Especially for this, near-extinction kingdom. Does this guy understand that?

"... civilians. There's no title."

What does this guy really think of as a country? You think this guy's the king of this country? How hard do you think people have been going around countries? How hard do you think you've had and negotiated with the Heads of State?

The token broke.

"Brother! What the hell are you gonna do with this country?

How many years have you shouted?

"Now this country is on the way to annihilation!? Look out of the country! An emperor stripped of his territorial ambition, the president, in the circumstances the lead duke sees! What the hell are you doing!?

I wonder what this king sees.

A country on the verge of extinction. And we have to lean on that country, numerous citizens. Is that not what the king of this country sees?

As I have said many times, the marriage of a monarch is an extremely serious issue.

Sometimes we welcome foreign royalty into our wives and become relatives to survive this disturbing continent. Large countries do so for the expansion of hegemony, while small countries do so for national defence.

Or wives the daughter of a leading domestic aristocrat to deepen ties with that aristocrat to entrench domestic hegemony.

Marriage is politics.

The king understands it.

Never say that you will marry a civilian child who has no power or identity whatsoever, for the reason that you "like yourself", even if you make a mistake.

Yet this guy in front of me, he doesn't seem to understand it.

"Carol. I don't know how you feel. But I don't. But this is a decision."

"... ugh!

So much pain that my brain is about to burst, it strikes me.

The pain is probably the scream of this country.

... This stubborn man doesn't ask anything anymore?

"Brother. If you are concerned about the Kingsguard, you will not say anything about entering into a relationship at the earliest opportunity. But at the very least, do not take the brother-in-law as your rightful wife, but put her aside as your concubine. And once again, I want you to welcome my rightful wife."

Polygamy is not recognized religiously.

No, except with the permission of the papal state, but it's absurd to negotiate with that country for something like that. This is the least we can do.

But even then, this guy didn't admit it.

"Then no. I welcome her as my rightful wife. That's what I promised her."

"... what?

Franz says.

She accepts the king's courtship if she takes herself as her rightful wife.

This was probably her joke, or far-fetched rejection. He said it was as a concubine, not as his rightful wife, that the king had asked for a civilian self. In her capacity, I guess it was her only answer that she couldn't get a clear rejection.

But apparently the meaning of the word did not make sense to this king (idiot).

"Say it again. I marry her, former Kingsamurai Marcelina. This is a matter of decision."

Fucking idiots.

I have no choice but to be vicious, a disgrace in my body.
