Responsibility, loyalty and

- August 31 Governor's Office of Krakow, Duke of Krakow

"Really? Is the 3rd Cavalry Corps disenfranchised?"

It seems to be a temporary measure.

Example case.

His Royal Highness, the misconduct of the 3rd Cavalry Regiment of the escort unit apparently resulted in the detention of members of the same unit. That was certainly the case with the documents sent by Lord Henrik and Lord Ilia. A reliable source.

It's an excessive measure for just a fraudulent case, but this should be just about the right precaution against rebellion by loyal troops.

But...

"You're worried about the shortage of escorts. I'd rather not leave the King's Capital for a while..."

"His Royal Highness Emilia will be in the King's Capital for a few months, apparently because she will be preparing for her engagement. I hope the case converges in the meantime."

"Then don't worry."

And I'm anxious on the inside, though that's what I said.

Because it is, but it is the first time in a long time that I have left His Highness Emilia... No, precisely because it is the second time.

The first time, before the Silesia-Karlsbert war.

He went to the former Karlsbert Republic, which he thought was safe, and became chased by a sudden coup d 'état.

His Highness Emilia, who obstinately refused to go, went to Carlsbert by the persuasion of His Royal Highness the Grand Duke of Carroll, who at the time was only "a mismatch between the King and the Grand Duke under the water," and everything moved.

Did anything change then if I followed you?

... No, I might rather have been glad with that one. At that time, His Highness met Yuzef and Sarah and was changed. Not in the direction I expected, but changed.

But not this time.

My allies are in an exotic land, me and Radek are in Krakow. His Royal Highness has one in the King's Capital......

"Brother. Let me go to the king's capital."

"... what?

"To investigate the case and escort Her Royal Highness"

To tell you the truth, I was just worried. And I missed you. I wanted to see you and make sure your Highness was safe. They might say it's too overprotective, but that's what I mean.

"Maya. You must remain in your territory and be obliged to represent the military inspectors and the special involvement of the Department of Statistics. What are we gonna do with that? Especially you, Major Waresa and the stats department they set up."

"... Radek... excuse me, I was wondering if I could be represented by Captain Rasdwaf Novak, the garrison's supply staff"

As far as the military junta is concerned, there is nothing wrong with leaving it to my brother. Prior to His Highness Emilia's inauguration, he was carrying out his duties. I do remain anxious about the information, but as long as I can gather the information, I can do it with Radek.

But my brother refuses.

"I can't possibly appoint a man in the garrison. That's what Maya knows."

"But..."

No, I know. Situationally, there is no reason for me to go to the King's Capital. He said it was better to stay here than that. But I may be a creature who can't stay here even though I know it's a bad act.

You can fake it's the work of the statistics department and decide to go to Wangdu. In the name of the exchange of information with the Ministry of the Interior.

"Maya."

But my brother seemed to know. With a quiet voice like a whisper, he stopped me.

"I am also well aware of your pledge of allegiance to Her Royal Highness Princess Emilia. If you try to stop me here, you're going to King's Capital for good reason, aren't you?

……

You can't say "yes, it is" here. It wouldn't make a big difference from what I said.

"But as Maya has Mayan beliefs. I have my faith."

I've never seen it before in my life, my brother's resolute face.

But the words that are released from it are not the first words I hear.

"- Maya. What is the Duke's duty to you?
