In the meantime, I thought the story about Illustria's - phantom - military base was over... and I jumped a little farther away.

"They've decided on a military base in Illustria, waiting for the results of the investigation."

Sir Zilka munitions cuts words there and looks around together.

"... don't you think it was a slim preparation for Illustria?

In the words of Lord Ordnance, other faces have to snort.

"Sure... if I was prepared, I wouldn't have had to be a wolf."

"Uh-huh. I think the investigation into the two lost battalions is still closed."

"Should I review my readiness for Illustria without waiting for the findings"

"Marcus, Morvania, the Dungeon Master and at this time of year when we're all full of dealing with the three sides?

"No, it's this time of year, and I can even get my hands on preparation. We can't afford that until the firemen are up."

"Mmmm... does that make sense too"

And that's what we talked about.

"Well, in case Illustria invades, we'll deal with that..."

"You're Markt's 'lion' regiment and Gregorum's 'hawk' regiment. I was supposed to lure him into Odrant and blackmail him."

"But..."

"Mm-hmm. The 'Eagle' regiment has come (come) considerably less powerful with the repeated extraction of personnel and Isakoza with monsters. We're only halfway through the rest of the regiment."

"If you're going to say that, so is Markt's regiment of 'lions'. We're extracting some of our power to replenish Gregory Ram. We haven't been replenished by recruits yet."

Once again, the Secretary of State realizes that his readiness for Illustria has become weaker as a result of his movements of troops in preparation for Marcus and Morvania, making him pale.

"… we must hurry to replenish the recruits"

"That's not enough. We need to maintain a defensive base in some way."

"... like Illustria?

"It's ironic."

"But... before you do, you'll need to check the street safety from Renville to Nil"

Although it was only the search for the two lost battalions that took place, there was no perspective on safety checks there. However, safety checks would be necessary if we were to consider developing a base for the invasion of Illustria. I don't even want to think about it, like, beside the stronghold, there was actually a dragon or a skeleton Wyburn nest.

"Speaking of which... Nil's Adventurer Guild was issuing an investigation report"

Secretary Merca reminds me of a previous report that came up from the Adventurers Guild.

"Nil's Adventurer Guild?

"Sir Merca, what's its contents? What happened to you?

"Sure... I think it was a report that there was no danger"

"Hmm... but why not just swallow it?"

"I agree. Even the kingdom needs to send out its own investigation team to make sure."

"We need to wait for that finding, but the preparation itself should proceed sooner"

"Basically, it's a good policy to build a precinct, okay?

"Ah. Happy or unhappy, few merchants currently use that street. You'll complain."

Construction of a post that would impede the movement of the central streets - from the point of view of the Secretary of State, a stop line.

Things were going in the opposite direction of Nil's Adventurer Alliance thoughts.
