Continental Hero Senki

Imperial Ambition

A villa on the outskirts of Tsar Ligrad, the imperial capital of the eastern continent.

"Stefan. I need to ask you something"

"Hey brother, change it"

There were two figures, Vitort and Stefan, the sons of the Duke Krakowski family, the brother of Maya Krakowska.

"Example, material on Silesian intelligence. Why didn't you tell me sooner?"

"I was buried in a different dossier, because I'm not omnipotent either."

The conversation between my eldest brother Vitort, who follows my father and decides to betray my country, and Stefan, an opportunist who is trying to smoke only in delicious places without risk, is not always soothing.

"Are you sure? I thought you were hiding it.

"If you're gonna hide it, I'm gonna hide it till the end."

"But the emperor's secretary was angry that you missed the vast majority of intelligence agents because you didn't get them out early?

"The Imperial police force is too low, isn't it? It's not my fault."

Vitort seriously asks questions, and Stefan answers unseriously.

brothers who take the opposite attitude, but the reasons why they go into such action are common.

In other words, it is the action taken by his own parent, the Duke of Krakowski.

"I get in the way of Father's plan. Don't bother with that."

"A plan... a plan. Yes, Yes, Plan Plan"

"Seriously."

The plan itself, Stefan knows my father's sincerity.

I also know what poked and moved my father, and what made him hit this big beat. So Stefan is seriously following Vitort.

Anyway, at this stage, the formula is five fifths. At least that's what Stefan looked like.

"If the plan fails, they'll tell us we're the stupidest clan in history."

"At this stage, I think it's pretty much happening."

"I don't care if you evaluate the status quo."

Vitort, on the other hand, is not desperate about the plan for Stefan.

It is true that my father's - no, the plans of the Grand Duke of Carol are traitorous in some ways, and in some ways have an idealistic aspect. It is the second large-scale challenge in human history and has a low chance of success. But if we succeed, those who gain will be great.

The word honor is not enough, for what should also be called greatness.

"... well. As long as you're here, you can't change the situation. Double espionage is clever. I don't even think you can do it. And just to be clear, surveillance and censorship are pretty good, right?

"Oh, scary scary scary. You're a brother, but you don't trust me."

"Don't worry. It's got the same thing on me, and it's probably on my father. Ever since I came to this country."

It's a pleasure.

To Stefan's joke, Vitort made him laugh by saying "sure".

Same day. Spring Palace (Vesnard Varieties), outside Tsarigrad, Imperial capital.

"Your Majesty, what are you going to do?

"What do you mean? Kreutzer"

"It's been decided. It's about the traitors."

Sergei Romanov, the 60th emperor of the Eastern Continental Empire, and his proximity, Mikhail Kreutzer, were, as usual, advancing in the reform of an ancient and rotten empire.

"Even if we don't use traffickers like that, with the help of His Majesty, such as Silesia..."

"That's a touch of armor sleeve. You can swallow a country like that in three months without a civil war."

And now the two are discussing the treatment of the Duke Krakowski family. Rather than that, Kreutzer is listening unilaterally.

"Then why?

"Easy. It's a scapegoat."

The young emperor explains to Kreutzer without resting his pen.

If it is now a vigorously reformed Eastern Continental Imperial Army, it will not be the earliest problem, such as the Royal Silesian Army. What is at issue is then about its governance.

"Whether it be Karol or Krakowski, the traitor's nickname is not so easy to wipe away. What would happen if we let someone who says that rule Silesia after the occupation?

"- The dissatisfaction of the former King's people will increase."

"Naturally. Karol, no one says desperately to work under a traitor named Krakowski, etc. But that's why it's good."

For the first time since I said that, Sergei put the pen down.

Then explain the coffee brewed by the graduate with one breath in one hand.

"They're good people. Probably still show great governance knowing you're a hater. But those who are still unhappy will take their weapons and start to flock."

"... that's how you fight a swarm of enemies, is it?

"That's right. But more precisely, let them do it."

Say, this emperor floated a demonic face.

If we get this far, Kreutzer understands what it means.

"I see. Do they bear not only the rettel of traitors, but also the disgrace of homicide"

"And I will cut off those who have done nothing but murder as emperors."

"... yes, will it work"

"I don't know. Outreach, more they might govern. Anyway, I'm looking forward to the war."

Laughter, and the Emperor finishes his break for a moment and returns to his office.

Just before that, Kreutzer asked.

"… Your Majesty. Then Your Majesty is like a villain. You don't know what you're doing that for."

Just kidding, Kreutzer, Sergei's best friend, laughed and listened.

Sergei also answers the question with a laugh. But the content is very serious.

"It is decided. World peace."

and.
