Immortal Sage

Responsibility and sweetness

"I can't do this publicly, but to keep quiet... it's too insane..."

Master Ellie whining with her head in her arms and squeezing it out.

I'm relieved that you can't do it publicly, but you're worried about whether you should report it to His Majesty the King?

"Didn't your aunt promise not to speak out except Count Svein?

"Claudia... you know what I'm saying?

Master Ellie stares at Holly asking with a fallen face.

"From what I've reported, it doesn't change Mr. Wolfe's crusade against such an impudent man as Vereda."

"You know it's not a matter of falling in love!

Is that enough to make Master Ellie annoyed?

We only built a counter-medical ceremony against the unique magic used by the Veredas...

"The kind of magic we built isn't the problem!

Wow, I've never seen Ellie like this before!!

I'm not supposed to be the one to show you this much room in front of me?

"This is a story involving politics, Mr. Wolfe!

"I think magic for metastasis and mass extermination is dangerous, but how is this counter-terrorist formula intertwined with politics?

"Your presence is politically important."

Master Ellie continues, sighing with a frightened look.

"People who can easily deal with any kind of magic use magic that no one else can deal with... Be aware that you are too scared for people who don't know your character!

Horrible?

I have no intention of being unreasonable, do I?

"There is only justice in the number of people. You know that mistake is creating a feud, don't you?

"Sometimes what Wolfe believes in and does is not justice to others? Aunt?"

"Exactly. Even if the actions of others seem unreasonable, there are many things that people think are good from themselves."

The story Master Ellie tells is different from that of the Veredas... the human perspective of the Las Gakans Empire?

The crusade of the Veredas is not necessarily just to the people of the Las Gakan Empire any more than the Veredas are intertwined with the Las Gakan Empire.

It's not like the people of the Las Gakhan Empire are like Vereda, and it's possible that people who don't know their purpose are not even aware that they are being used...

From that perspective, we look like enemies to the detriment of the Las Gakhan Empire.

Are you saying that a situation in which such a human being is approaching with extra-standard force is unacceptable...

Sure, you're talking about creating a lot of things.

"Do you think politics can get Vereda and the others out of the Lasgakarn Empire?

"That's an impossible story. But you do understand the importance of what the Reisl kingdom has in store for you, right?

Master Ellie tells us to talk.

As Erie said, it is important that the Reisl Kingdom prepare for the combined movements of the Rasgakan Empire and the Veredas.

I'm guessing Ellie thinks we need to be prepared to assume the worst than Vereda and the rest of us know about in Vinz's report.

"Your Majesty's approval will be required for the Mages to move and for the army to move."

Military movements, including war, are only an extension of politics.

We need to talk about avoiding that, but the world isn't sweet enough for a powerless claim to go through.

"You think it's not just us anymore?

"Even if the Elves like Veleda are left to you, Wolf, there's no way the Reisl kingdom is going to do anything against a country called the Lasgakarn Empire."

"To be placed under the control of the Kingdom of Raisle is…"

"Not under control, we're going to talk about cooperation."

"Is it a cooperative relationship? A clan of nations and individuals?

There is no realism in building what Ellie calls a cooperative relationship because each background is too different.

There is too much difference between a nation that carries the peace of its people and a clan of ten.

"Oh? I thought you guys said you took Lady Gladys' request.

"That's... you're right, though"

"Then it doesn't mean you're carrying the fate of the world, not just the Reisl Kingdom."

Or, naturally...

Heavy, too heavy!!

"Wolf, your skills are for that, so it's time to be aware and ready!

In a serious voice, Master Ellie continues.

"Your Majesty also gave me a reprieve to prepare when I told him the story. Not for long, Wolfe, because Your Majesty took into account the weight of what you carried."

……

Well, you're right...

With Your Majesty at the head, we had a convenient conversation at a place with all the heavy towns of the Reisl Kingdom.

That must have been His Majesty's warmth...

You mean you've been sweeter than you think, Your Majesty, Ellie, and your father's warmth...

"The day after tomorrow, the whole clan will see His Majesty."

Master Ellie's voice echoed in the unsaid air.
