Isaac

The friction between the late Duveron and Isaac was a pride battle. From the perspective of the late Duveron, the historic noble family and the Southern royal family, I felt it was a pity to say a few words to Isaac, the heir of the unhappy baron family and the nobility.

Isaac disregards the behavior of the late Duveron, who ignores himself with direct authority and seeks to resolve matters through direct negotiations with the imperial government.

Despite being the most fearsome thing for those in public office, Isaac's reluctance is the reluctance of the throne, so he can't give in to the pressure coming from above. Rather, the disrespectful behavior of the duchess is making me want to see the duchess stoop in.

So I pretended to let him go, and I put a ridiculous twist on him. I begged him to fight me openly, but Isaac didn't want all that money either. In the first place, that ridiculous force was poured into the sky to bring down the mistaken Marquis and negotiate face to face with them.

As long as the idiot Dagger signed the nonsense on the bill, the Duveron Earl had to drop the Dagger, pay the Dagger, or negotiate a reconciliation to adjust the amount as Isaac intended.

However, the late Duveron picks up a card he never thought of.

“…… what? ”

Isaac, who was just about to bite a cigarette into his mouth and light it, ran up to the roof with a pale complexion and suddenly became dazed.

“Earl Duveron has formally petitioned the Central Administrative Office for territorial warfare! ”

“Territory war? You mean war? ”

“Yes!”

“…… is that even possible? ”

Although Isaac holds the title of lieutenant, the city of Newport is not exactly a territory. The war itself was impossible.

“It's an unprecedented role as a lieutenant for the operation of the city. So now it's going to be noisy, not only with the law enforcement, but also with the attorney general's office, whether or not to accept the municipality as a territory, and whether or not to permit the territorial war. ”

According to Codnell, Isaac unravels his stiffness and smiles in relief.

“What am I supposed to say? I thought we were at war. You don't have to worry about the permits yet. It's a simple threat. ”

“But……. ”

Codnell seems concerned, but Isaac doesn't see the threat as serious. War doesn't happen that easily.

It costs money to move armies, to feed them, to put them to sleep, to arm them, to wage battles, to heal wounded people, to earn money for pranks, to deal with prizes and post-war.

The military's biggest goal, from one to ten, is to show off its power to attack. Of course, if the benefits of war outweigh the losses, the war will take place, but it is natural to negotiate with Isaac more cheaply than to save one family heir and to start a war.

More importantly, even after the war, the Grand Duke was taken hostage by Isaac.

Thus, Isaac decided that the late Duveron was a powerful display of power to gain the upper hand in negotiations.

“If things get serious, Magellan will warn you first. But just in case, call the Child Scouts and ask them to take a good look. It's better to be able to influence. ”

On Isaac's instructions, Codnell looks back at Isaac with a lingering look on his face. Isaac's carelessness, determined not to go to war, returns to him in a few days.

“The Central Office of Justice has announced that even if it is a city level, it is considered territorial as long as it is operated by a person acting on behalf of the Lord and is also obligated to carry out territorial warfare. The Administrative Office hereby grants permission to enter the territorial war by the Grand Duke of Duveron and the official opening date is set one month from now! ”

“ ……. ”

Early in the morning, Isaac frowns in his eyes at Codnel's screaming face with a pale complexion. The city officials gathered to the rooftop to see if they had heard the news during the cigarette one by one, ignoring the inevitable Codnell.

Isaac rubs his cigarette against the ashtray, muttering while everyone is wandering around unexpectedly.

“The information is too late. ”

“Yes?”

“Are you here on official business? ”

“We have formal literature, and the Colored People have informed us of their decision. ”

“We haven't heard from you since it was settled. ”

Information is the most important thing for the merchant guild. By the time the team is finished, it can be acquired in advance through a network of people who have built results.

However, there are only two situations in which we have contacted each other after the results were formally announced. It was so covert that even the protesters couldn't intervene, or it was silent when they found out.

Isaac puts more weight on the latter. From the point of view of the team, Isaac is no longer worthy. Instead, Isaac's disappearance would give him control of the market surrounding Fort City and Newport City. According to Isaac's theory, the conditions of betrayal have been established.

“You're careless.”

Isaac admitted it, frankly. It was Isaac's mistake to be careless, knowing that the most money-sensitive merchant could betray the truth and justice at any time in front of the greater good.

“Even so, why didn't Magellan say anything? ”

As Isaac mutters, Calden climbs up to the roof and shouts.

“Sir, I've been contacted by a fellow who works for the Supply Office! ”

“What's going on? ”

“Magellan has been demoted! ”

Tuck!

Calden cries out, and a cigarette falls from Isaac's hand and numbs his mind.

Was the baron strong enough to take down the Deputy Chief of Supply? No, how did you lose Magellan, the royal highborn?

Isaac frowns and says, "Does your head flinch?"

“Why were you demoted? ”

“…… nobody knows why. ”

“What nonsense! The Deputy Director of Supply can't be demoted for no reason! ”

“Well…… Rumor has it that even the Supply Commissioner is heading east and west to find out why he's so surprised. ”

According to Calden, Isaac kicks his tongue and nervously asks for a cigarette. After the fall of Magellan, Isaac's only link and backpack, there is no place to hang on to the central government.

“Phew... I'm running low on information. ”

“Uh, how do I do that? ”

When I asked him about Codnell's frustration, Isaac blurted.

“What are you gonna do? Get down on the ground. ”

“Yes?”

“Tell the baron. We lost, so just take him. No, I don't think that's enough. Tell him he's willing to pay his dues. ”

“Surrendering without a fight is a shame! ”

The Northbears, including Rizli, have been eager to play as if they were fighting.

Isaac looks at him and says with a fat face.

“Can the Northbears win a battle without one casualty?" ”

“That's going to be tough. No matter how prepared the battle is, the damage will be done... ”

When Rizzley said it with an embarrassing look on his face, Isaac stopped talking.

“Then that's it. I hired you to work, not to die. Just surrender and compensate for the damage and it's over. ”

Isaac sent a surrender document to the baron, releasing the potter as soon as the territorial permit was granted. The prince refused to work underground to prepare for the war by compensating for the damage and offering to concede even a portion of Newport City.

An arrow spills out from everywhere, as if trying to hit it.
