Past wars (3) Kaisard side

The guided location is the south of the Kingdom of Lawrence -, the border line with the Kingdom of Kaisel, close to the trading city of Romane, which is an important part of trade in the Duke of Aldard's territory.

That is, near the fortress of the kingdom of Kaisel.

A tent set up as if it were forming near it.

"Dear Aldard, I have brought you Caesar de Caesar, Prince of the Kingdom of Caesar"

"Uhm. Soon - so that you can come in"

But the Duke of Aldard must have been in his 30s.

Yet a majestic voice can be heard from within the tent.

"Excuse me."

If you want me to help you, that's a wish or a fulfillment - but you don't have to be humble.

- No.

Words and deeds that reduce their own value should not be lowered.

That's because it can be an insulting element from the other person.

Step inside the tent paying for the dripping cloth with your right hand.

Inside the tent is ensured to be large enough to contain about 10 horses, with little noticeable except a large table with a qualitative assembly ceremony.

There is one person in the tent.

A man in a silver clasp stands and looks at me.

The glance seems sharply worthy of this one.

I walk over to the man, taking a man's gaze from the front.

"The kingdom of Caesar is the king prince - Caesar de Caesar."

I speak with my right hand.

"It's Raine von Aldard. I beg your indulgence to welcome His Royal Highness the King of the Kingdom of Kaisel in such a setting"

"Now in time of war, unnecessary thanks are needed"

"Right. That helps."

I'm going to bow my head, Duke of Aldard - but those eyes look like they're going to shoot me through -.

"I think you've heard from my men..."

"I hear you can lend me a soldier..."

I say the words with some anxiety that the conversation is going on too soon.

"Exactly."

succinctly - and the Duke of Aldard, who answers clearly.

Honestly, I don't think the Kingdom of Lawrence has any interest in marching.

I just think there's something in return.

Is that what I should ask you first?

"Duke of Aldard"

"- Hmm?"

"Is it known that this time the Kingdom of Lawrence will send its troops to the southern part of the Altrus continent in the form of participation in the war against the great Adria…, even indirectly?

"Absolutely."

"- Really..."

When another country is entering a state of war, saying that it will assist one side is synonymous with saying that it will put its head into war.

I mean...

"Prince Wang seems to be mistaken about something..."

"Ha?"

"We, the Kingdom of Lawrence, are not going to take part in the war"

"- And my name is?

"It is only I, Raine von Aldard, who will lend my strength to the war in the Kingdom of Kaisel"

"- Huh!?

I am shocked by that word.

Not at the king's discretion, but even if the bloodstream is royal! I open my eyes to how much of a problem it is for a duke who is only a nobleman to stick his neck in a war in another country at his discretion - and he won't even be the man who doesn't get it.

"If you do it badly, it means nobility won't be stripped."

"I am well aware of it. But - with information from my undercover detective, it is said that the great country Adria is slaughtering the people of other countries that it has placed under occupation and keeping them from starting a rebellion before launching an invasion. The country and the soldiers! If it were! I was frustrated that I had to protect the powerless, but I was violating that indiscipline. So..."

"So you're telling me you can help me?

"It will. At least I think and act as a priority to protect my people. As a result, if your own house is to be crushed, you have no choice."

……

I look to the Duke of Aldard silently.

There seemed to be no falsehood in its eyes.

"Okay. Together, Adria, the great power..."

"Mm-hmm. I don't even have time for this. Let's just say we leave soon."

Immediately after shaking hands, after gathering the soldiers of the fortress and preparing for the expedition, we shall proceed with the army of the Duke of Aldard to Lucenia, king capital of the Kingdom of Caesar.
