"I want King Sigma Doren back. King Doren is the king's capital, not the kingdom of Fontana."
"My kingdom of Fontana has accepted King Doren's exile in accordance with international law. I can't return a king who feels in danger and appeals for protection to a place where there are those who point their swords at the king."
"... international law? What the hell is that? Would you like to say that we waved our sword against the king? King Doren was taken away by the Greatest."
"In the Kingdom of Fontana, King Sigma Doren and I have exchanged opinions and mediated on international law. There are more rules than there are individual countries and countries. Of course, it also applies to the Kingdom of Fontana and the Doren royal family. Then King Doren himself demanded asylum in the Kingdom of Fontana. Therefore, we have a duty to protect King Doren."
"Stupid. Is such a trick possible? Besides, I doubt if the King is really safe in the first place. The Doren royal family and the Fontana kingdom had a hostile relationship. How can King Doren be safe when he's taken away by his opponent?"
"There are provisions in international law. There are rules about how to treat an asylum seeker or a prisoner. In accordance with that international law, we will not unjustly treat King Doren, whom we wish to seek asylum."
"Cut it out. Such international law is null and void. We don't know that."
"International law is valid. This has already been signed in the Kingdom of Fontana and King Doren, as well as in the Kingdom of Resolute and the Church of the Holy Light. Acting in violation or disregard of this would be a crime for each country, wouldn't it?
"No, you're threatening me? I'm here to discuss this as an official messenger from the Doren royal family."
"I'm not threatening you. But what you said was a gross disregard for international law. So this is a piece of advice. You should be more careful what you say."
A messenger came from King's Landing.
Joseph has asked for the surrender of Sigma Doren, the interim king, leaving behind the Shadow Warrior of the King and heading for the Kingdom of Fontana.
The messenger came to Reed's city of Richard as a point of contact, but I'm the one dealing with him.
I wonder why the Minister of Finance is doing this in diplomacy, but he was originally a civilian military officer and his position was not clearly divided.
The concurrent holding of various positions is commonplace, post reporting is common, and even if the finance minister is dealing with other countries' messengers, it will be fine.
Moreover, this response itself is already assumed to be a rion, etc., and is also a default route.
"In any case, are you going to return King Doren, Lord Ars Barca?
"King Doren wishes to perform a ritual to regain his inheritance at the cathedral in the city of Fontana. If it is judged that you can return safely to King's Landing, you will want to return yourself."
"... what about the body of the ancestral king? It is already known that you are hiding the body of your predecessor, King Doren. Do you think that would be acceptable? I want you to return to King's Landing immediately."
"I can't do that. The body of the late King Doren has been decided that I will perform the funeral. This is also what King Doren wanted to decide."
"That's a lie. The tomb of the Doren royal family is in the kingdom of the ancestors. The funeral of the Doren royal family is performed by the righteous in the king's capital, and buried in the king's capital. That's how it works. King Doren can't be unaware of how it works."
"It's true. This is the proof. It says here that King Doren asked me, under his own signature, to perform a funeral as a shield of God.
That's what I showed the messenger the parchment.
The botanical paper I made, Barca paper, is thin and convenient, and uses magic to write letters as well.
However, these official documents often use old-fashioned parchment.
Especially those in the King's Land, including the Doren royal family, had a strong tendency.
Therefore, the funeral contract with King Doren was also signed on parchment.
The messenger must have realized that it was King Doren's signature.
With so much effort in his hand that he could break the contract, he was trembling with a trap.
Then he shouted as if the limit of patience had been reached or if the parchment was slamming against the desk.
"It's not a story. The kingdom of Fontana seems to be squeezing up the rationale and holding onto the King, forcing him into rude conditions. Such a thing is absolutely unacceptable. I'll let you go."
"Are you sure? There's not a single discussion?
"There's nothing to talk about anymore. Excuse me."
I thought you said that, but the messenger left without breaking the door.
"... are you sure, Mr. Ars? Is it okay to just say things that make you so angry?
"International law, asylum, funeral. It's not okay, but, well, this is the only way."
"Will the nobles of King's Landing move?"
"I guess. You wouldn't look like a nobleman if you licked me so much and kept quiet. However, the aristocracy of the King's Land alone cannot be relied upon as a force of war. The question is how far do you agree with the opinion of the King's Capital and the other nobles move....."
"The Linzats will definitely be in King's Landing."
"Well, I guess so. There will be troops moving from both the King's Landing and the Rhinesatz realm, attacking this leader. They're targeting Lead Territory and Sky Gardens. To be more precise, they must be targeting the transporter magic team there."
"In that case, I'll take the King's Landing and the Balkans will control the Linzats, won't they, Mr. Ars?
"Ah, the Lindsatz family has the magic of time manipulation, which is a bit tough on the Reed. Barca will take it."
"Thank you. Well, good luck, brother Ars."
Leave it to me, Kyle.
So the discussion with the king's capital broke apart, as planned.
If our expectations are correct, the kingdoms will definitely move.
They will send a signal to the surrounding aristocrats, targeting Reed territory.
Intercept it.
The corner of the opponent's army is the House of Rheinzats, a magical clan that beats all nobles as the nobles of modern hegemony.
The Lindsatz family said it was even possible to stop time.
The Linzats clashed with the Vulcan Reed army.
