Opinion as a Power

Side: Shaw

I was at a hot spring in Weed... doing a therapeutic act called a hot spring treatment, and when I got out of the bath and cooled down, I was looking at the souvenir shop in the hot spring town to give a souvenir to His Majesty Eupia.

"Oh, Yuki?

Then, unexpectedly, Yuki came.

"Hmm? Oh, Lord Shaw."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa."

Oh, it's not Shaw.

"Does rats have Ellis?

Rats holding Weed's supplies.

And Ellis grabbed the safe.

When these two giants of Weed were together, they were negotiating.

Well, these people have a very good relationship, so sometimes they have a normal date...

"Excuse me, who is this woman?

Unfamiliar woman is talking to Yuki, right?

Is it a wife I don't know? No, I don't know Yuki's wife, and I'm meeting her... who is she?

A woman with a glorious face in deep green?... oh, excuse me. I was going to make a mistake because there was not much undulation.

Some men like that.

"Oops, excuse me. This is Shaw, deputy prime minister of the Zurable Empire."

"Hi, I'm late to say hello. My name is Shaw of the Zurable Empire."

When Yuki is carefully introduced like this, this woman...

"This is Princess Fiora of the Kingdom of Dafio, who is here for consultation."

"My name is Fiora from the Kingdom of Dafio and I apologize for the delay in greeting you. We'll see you later, Mr. Shaw."

I see, the princess?

You're convinced. Behavior is not just a person.

I feel elegant. Young but stunning. They must be better educated than us.

Hmm, should the Zurable Empire properly enact such etiquette?

Until now, there have been wars and the minimum is necessary, but from now on, courtesy will be important, and princesses like this will be more diplomatic than His Majesty.

That person is gorgeous, good or bad.

And that's fine...

"Yes, thank you. So, do you want to talk about it? Something went wrong."

I will ask what is a diplomatic matter.

Well, I don't think Yuki accidentally leaked this kind of story...

"Ah, yes. Princess Fiora, may I speak to Lord Shaw?

"Huh? To her? But to other countries....."

"It's okay there. We follow a lot of land in a country we're dating. There may be some good information."

"... I see. But domestic problems....."

Hmm. Apparently, consultation is something that shows the weakness of the country.

As a country, you don't want to show it to people you don't know.

However, Yuki-sama doesn't seem to understand such a thing.

You think my knowledge will be helpful at all.

In that case, it would be foolish to refuse.

We've been helped in pieces, so you can listen to this kind of advice.

Your Majesty also said that you need to connect with other countries, and I think this is a memorable step.

"I serve my country, too. I understand Princess Fiora's concern. But you can't back off until Yuki tells you to. I swear to you, I will not do anything to your detriment. How's it going? Could you talk to me?

When I say so, Princess Fiora does not answer immediately, meditates a little, and then slowly opens her eyes.

"... I see. I trust Yuki and Shaw."

I like not answering immediately.

If you honestly believe in it, it is a bit heartless as a royal family in a country.

"Yes, thank you. Now, I'd like to talk to you, but I can't even talk to the boulder here."

I know it's not like talking at a souvenir shop like this.

"Well, then, we're going to meet at the hotel where Princess Fiora is staying, so let's talk there."

"That's right. You don't have to worry about the people around you."

"Yes, I will keep in touch with one additional person for the meal."

Well, apparently you'll get some rice, too.

Well, it would be a good idea to have this kind of consultation.

With that in mind, I went to the hotel where Princess Fiora was staying and enjoyed a bathed meal in one of the rooms.

"No, it was delicious. How was Princess Fiora?

"Yes, it was a delicious meal. I'm still surprised it's been four days since I came to this week."

"Ahahah. I see. It's only been four days, and I've been surprised for about a month."

The high standard of living was at the beginning, the high level of technical skills used, and the knowledge that everything in Japan was invincible.

Ah, if there's only one thing I can win, is there a lot of people in the country?

Only a few.

"For a month? Anything else tasty?

"No, if you're going to conquer something delicious, you'll need time on an annual basis. I'm still in the middle of it."

I mean, if you enjoy your meal on your own, Your Majesty will be angry.

However, there is a daily reporting obligation to make what you ate that day compulsory and delicious.

But the answer seemed surprising to Princess Fiora...

"Is there something so delicious?

"Yes, some of the ice I've just eaten contains not only vanilla, but also fruit, and some are mixed with other sweets such as chocolates and cookies."

"Wow. Is there such a thing? I definitely want to try it."

"That's right. Let's solve Princess Fiora's problems to make her feel better."

"Yes"

Princess Fiora nodded honestly at my words.

It's hard to enjoy eating with everyone in trouble.

And during this meal, it seemed like you were a little off guard, showing me your pretty face outside of your daunting face.

Well, all women like sweets.

Above all, if we don't get along this way, we can't listen deeply.

Now, I wonder what kind of story comes up, and when I hear the story...

"... is there a water shortage?"

"Yes"

I understand why Yuki wants you to come to the consultation more than I imagined.

It's usually a big problem, or there's hardly a formal solution.

Fortunately, however, water resources can be secured even temporarily.

Usually getting water where it is not available is a lot of hard work, and it's not easy.

It is a matter of abandoning the village or town as it is.

Water is an absolute necessity for people to live, without which people cannot continue to do business.

"So, what do you think Shaw should do in this situation? Have you ever had a case like this since the country is so big?

"I see. I also understand why Yuki consulted me. You want to know what we've been dealing with."

"Oh, not like the precedent, but I want to know how to be a big power here."

"I'd love to know."

"That's right. First, I'll tell Princess Fiora. Yuki and the others are offering temporary water support, but it is usually abnormal at this point. Do not expect to be able to replenish immediately as the water runs out. A typical sorcerer's water supply should last a week."

"... yes. We've also been instructing them to hire a magician for about two months, but it's more difficult financially."

"I guess. It is quite impossible to treat a sorcerer as just a source of water. Moreover, the amount used is enormous. It's a big deal just to turn it into a depleted village for two months."

Well, I know that's why I'm here on Wednesday...

"But to be honest, there's not a lot that people can do before climate change. It is necessary to investigate to understand the situation, but at the same time you should make the decision to abandon the village. As it stands, we will lose everything in the struggle because of lack of water."

"... is that so?"

"Fortunately, with Weaver's help, we can get more water this year than in two months. So it is good that we can investigate and convince them to abandon the village. Typically, the country forces the movement before it does so. Still, there's a struggle with people who don't want to abandon the village."

We cannot leave the villagers wanting to die.

They start looting water to survive.

Then it will be more muddy.

Yuki, who was listening, also opened her mouth.

I thought it was best to abandon the village.

"Yes, that's particularly true of this conversation. As it stands, it also develops into a war with its neighbors. Considering the cost of maintaining the village, I wonder if it would be cheaper to move to another land. Surely thoughts and consciousness of our land will be strong. But as I said earlier, I'm going to lose everything."

If Weed's water supply technology is available on a permanent basis, it can be maintained, but we must also consider other lands.

After all, the land troubled by water is not enough in both hands in the Zurable Empire, so we need your help.

That's why you asked me for my opinion.

Well, Yuki would have imagined this kind of general opinion, but from Princess Fiora's point of view, it would be important for the big country to hear it.

"Well, it's necessary that Weed investigate to persuade others."

"Yes, Weed has a high international reputation. If we give them the results, they will help us."

Ah, is that it?

It seems that Princess Fiora also noticed.

If it is determined after thorough investigation that it cannot be maintained, it will be seldom slandered by other countries, as well as by the major countries to which you belong.

The reputation of Arria, Queen Cellaria's sister, will not be damaged.

If you're lucky, you'll get help from Rochelle and the rest of the world.

"So, Princess Fiora. Your decision was never wrong."

"... thank you."

What we have done so far is by no means in vain or wrong.

I did make the choice to save a lot of people.

But you can do it this way.

The more people, the more means they can take.

… consult with His Majesty to strengthen the Intercontinental Alliance.
