“It's a pleasure to meet you. I didn't expect to see [Iron Wall Alphonse]."

"This is why I've wanted to see you before." Welcome, Lady Lassen. Enjoy your day. ”

My mansion in the Orient.

There was a man visiting.

Rather, it should be said that he invited them on purpose.

The man's name is Lassen.

He was a person who lived in another small country, and he also caused a great recession in this entire group of small countries.

"No, thank you. Thank you very much. As you may know, recently I've been having a hard time getting words from people.”

"[Lassen's crash]." It's unfortunate. Such a name for the cause of the Great Depression that occurred to cover the Kowloon Plain distorted the public's impression. It's as if some people think you're the cause of this recession. ”

“That's right, it's a really troubling story. It makes no sense to be told that I am the cause of this recession. No one can explain what I did, right? In the first place, I am struggling to understand why the words [Lassen's Great Depression] were born.”

"... that's true. From what I heard, it was Lord Lassen's words that started the recession. But I don't know the facts, and I don't know how much of a rumor there is.”

"Maybe that's the case." Rather, there's a lot of talk going on, and honestly, I don't even know what the content is. However, it seems that all of them started a recession from me. It's a very unpleasant story. "

Listening to Lassen's story, I suitably depressed each other.

Lassen's crash.

It is a generic term for the recession that has had a tremendous impact on the various countries here.

This is a word that has spread in quite a variety of countries, and it has almost always become a common understanding among residents of various countries.

That is, the man named Lassen caused this recession.

Of course, it's a rumor I let the Shadows shed.

At first, I just checked with the country where Lassen lived to see if he needed a coin to pay his taxes.

The answer to the question was that a coin was desirable.

As a result of Lassen telling the people around him, it developed into a shortage of unused coins.

However, [Lassen's Crash] is a very diverse story nowadays.

Because the first story is now almost unheard, and now there is another story out there.

Some of the details are that a man named Lassen cheated on a magic tool market to get money, or tried to force a person without money to lend money and create a lot of debt.

And in the end, Russell himself was making a fortune in the wake of the Great Depression.

The unprecedented Great Depression.

In this series of events that caused tremendous damage to individuals, organizations, and nations, Lassen came to earn a lot of money.

This story spread with terrible momentum.

Because the world was looking for enemies.

How did this happen?

No money, no work, no food.

It wasn't all because of lack of effort, but because of the huge flow of helplessness.

Whose fault is it?

That's the only way to think about it.

Everyone wants to think it's not their fault, it's people's fault.

Thus, when you are looking for who is responsible for the problem, you hear the story of a man named Lassen.

It is because of the Lassen people that I am suffering now.

There was no way to confirm that.

It's a story I can't actually confirm.

But it looks like a human being is a strange thing.

It seems that you may hear from various people as a condition that you think the story you have heard is a definite one.

In other words, instead of just hearing about Lassen's bad behavior from one person, it seems like if someone else asks him, he assumes it's true, even though he can't be sure if it's true.

The assumption was quite firm.

If you ask people everywhere in small countries now what is the cause of the recession, Lassen will definitely be the first to answer the question.

No matter who you ask, the name "Lassen" will pop up, and you must be eager to tell us how Lassen acted in pursuit of self-interest without worrying about the annoyance of others.

Honestly, I'm surprised.

When I first got the information that this man needed a coin to pay his taxes, I didn't care so much about Lassen himself.

Somehow, I just thought it was this guy who was the cause of the recession.

I didn't expect it to be disliked so far.

However, this is available now.

Rassen was lucky enough to be alive, even though he received the greatest condemnation from his surroundings.

Because if a big country comes looking for the cause of a recession in a small group of countries, it will definitely focus on Lassen first.

As a result, it is less likely to turn to me or the Orient.

I mean, Lassen still has to work hard to get him to live.

“It must have been tough. I hear you're struggling.”

Lord Barca will believe I'm innocent, right?

“Of course,” he said, “but it would be strange to think that someone was responsible for the unexpected Great Depression. It was unlucky for everyone. That's all. I think Lord Lassen pulled the bucket.”

"Well, that's exactly what it is." Since the recession, I have been wandering around this land, but every country is in a tough situation. No one can do this artificially. There's no way we can do that. ”

“I totally agree. What do you think? As long as my eyes are black, I will not allow Lord Rassen to be in danger here. Will you stay here for a while and tell us about other countries?"

“Okay, I think I'll be in trouble for a while.”

Lassen and I met in unanimity.

Having got along, Lassen decided to stay with us for a while.

For now, let's get him in New Barca.

It would be more convenient for us if we didn't know the whereabouts of the men responsible for the recession, including the small and the big countries.

Thus, he succeeded in securing his captivity in the name of protection.
